...on the lighter side: Is That Love?-Squeeze (dedicated to dAN :P )

You’ve left my ring by the soap,
Now is that love?
You cleaned me out you could say broke,
Now is that love?
The better better better it gets
The more these girls forget
That that is love.
You won’t get dressed you walk about,
Now is that, is that
A teasing glance has pushed me out,
Now is that, is that
The tougher tougher tougher it gets
The more my lips frequent
Now that is love.

Beat me up with your letters, your walk out notes,
Funny how you still find me right here at home.
Legs up with a book and a drink,
Now is that love that’s making you think.

You’ve called my bluff I’m not so hot,
Now is that love
My assets froze while yours have dropped,
Now is that, is that
It’s the cupid cupid cupid disguise
That more or less survived
Now that is love.

Beat me up with your letters, your walk out notes,
Funny how you still find me right here at home.
Legs up with a book and a drink,
Now is that love that’s making you think.

:rockband:

You’ve made my bed the finger points
Now is that, is that love
The more you more you more you cool down
The easier love is found
Now that is love.

:beer:
fall far and well Pilots!

LED ZEPPELIN
"Immigrant Song"

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!

On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green, can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords.

On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins,
For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing.

"My Own Prison"

A court is in session, a verdict is in
No appeal on the docket today
Just my own sin
The walls are cold and pale
The cage made of steel
Screams fill the room
Alone I drop and kneel
Silence now the sound
My breath the only motion around
Demons cluttering around
My face showing no emotion
Shackled by my sentence
Expecting no return
Here there is no penance
My skin begins to burn

So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one

I hear a thunder in the distance
See a vision of a cross
I feel the pain that was given
On that sad day of loss
A lion roars in the darkness
Only he holds the key
A light to free me from my burden
And grant me life eternally

Should have been dead
On a Sunday morning
Banging my head
No time for mourning
Ain't got no time

So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one

Image

I cry out to God
Seeking only his decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison
I cry out to God
Seeking only his decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison

So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one

So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one

Should've been dead on a Sunday morning
banging my head
No time for mourning
Ain't got no time

Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
When I want to run away
I drive off in my car
But whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are

And all my instincts, they return
And the grand facade, so soon will burn
Without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

In your eyes
The light the heat
In your eyes
I am complete
In your eyes
I see the doorway (in your eyes) to a thousand churches
In your eyes
The resolution (in your eyes) of all the fruitless searches
In your eyes
I see the light and the heat
In your eyes
Oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
The heat I see in your eyes

In your eyes
In your eyes

Love, I don’t like to see so much pain
So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive

And all my instincts, they return
And the grand facade, so soon will burn
Without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

The heat I see in your eyes

In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes

Accepting all I’ve done and said
I want to stand and stare again
Til there’s nothing left out, oh
It remains there in your eyes
Whatever comes and goes
Oh it’s in your eyes

In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes

I want to stand and stare again
Oh, it’s in your eyes.

Rock n Roll, Hoochie Coo

it was a cold spring night at the old town hall
there was a group called The Jokers they were layin it down
I swore I'm never gonna lose that funky sound

Rock n roll hoochie coo
rock n roll hoochie coo
Lordy mama, light my fuse
light my fuse
Rock n roll hoochie coo
rock n roll hoochie coo
drop on out and spread the news

skeeters start a buzzin bout this time a year
I'm goin round back said she'd meet me there
we were rollin in the grass grows behind the barn
when my ears started ringin like a fire alarm

Did somebody say keep on rockin? :roll:

I hope you all know what I'm talkin about
the way they wiggle that thing really knocks me out
gettin high all the time, hope you all are too
come on a little closer gonna do it to you

Rock n roll hoochie coo
rock n roll hoochie coo
Lordy mama, light my fuse
light my fuse
Rock n roll hoochie coo
rock n roll hoochie coo
drop on out and spread the news

that i'm tired of payin dues
rock n roll hoochie coo
done said goodbye to all my blues
rock n roll hoochie coo

I found the Bloodguard Rap! :thumbsup:

Fired Up! - Hush

CHORUS
My crew is all fired up
Y'all better just wise up
Everybody gettin' sized up
Before we all rise up
Start runnin' your times up
Cuz' when my crew ride up
The sky gon' light up
Everybody get FIRED UP!!!



I walk this planet the most rugged
Most can only see this heat but don't touch it
Cuz' you might get 'em burned
When I come through it's my turn
Never get in my way or you're getting' rolled over
Like Rover cuz' my fist's a bulldozer
I throw these dogs in the street of melodies
Like a heartbeat playing against piano keys

It's a breeze 365 degrees
Turn around and you might catch these so just freeze
A riddle with no clues I'm a walking nightmare
Anywhere anytime boy I don't fight fair
A day in my shoes is a day with no fear
So walk barefooted and save your whole year
And I wear a mouthpiece cuz' I grit my teeth
So just bite your tongue before you get your ass beat!


CHORUS
My crew is all fired up
Y'all better just wise up
Everybody gettin' sized up
Before we all rise up
Start runnin' your times up
Cuz' when my crew ride up
The sky gon' light up
Everybody get FIRED UP!!!

But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.

Sure! I'm hungry...

Here's a great story in a very small amt. of time...

Slap & Tickle-Squeeze

She was frigid like a bible
When she met her boyfriend michael
He took her in his zephyr
They sat like salt and pepper
Looking out across the city
From lover’s leap is pretty
The lights they flick and flutter
He told her how he loved her
Next night he called for her
But dad protected daughter
And told him she was poorly
A lie was told there surely
So michael felt rejected
This wasn’t quite expected
He drove off to his local
Where he felt anti-social

She cried all night at missing
The boy she could be kissing
While he was falling over
He drunk himself back sober
And went home in a taxi
And crashed out in the back seat
He slept just like a baby
Which he hadn’t done just lately
He saw her in the morning
Out with his sister pauline
She felt all shy and soppy
He acted cool and cocky
He said tonight at charlie’s
There’s going to be a party
I’ll meet you at half seven
She visualised the heaven

If you ever change your mind
Which you do from time to time
Never chew a pickle
With a little slap and tickle
You have to throw the stone
To get the pool to ripple

That night they danced together
It looked like love forever
He put his hand on her leg
You should have heard what she said
He tried again much later
It seemed to aggravate her
He drove home in silence
Avoiding all violence
She said let’s watch the city
From lover’s leap is pretty
I think I need the fresh air
She put a comb through her hair
Then while she turned to kiss him
And very nearly missed him
She put her hand on his leg
He felt her tongue in his head

If you ever change your mind
Which you do from time to time
Never chew a pickle
With a little slap and tickle
You have to throw the stone
To get the pool to ripple
fall far and well Pilots!

"Yellow Ledbetter"

Unsealed on a porch a letter sat.
Then you said, "I wanna leave it again."
Once I saw him on a beach of weathered sand. And on the sand I wanna leave
it again. Yeah.
On a weekend I wanna wish it all away, yeah.
And they called and I said that "I want what I said" and then I call out
again.
And the reason oughta' leave her calm, I know.
I said "I know what I waited not a boxer or the bag."

Ah yeah, can you see them out on the porch? Yeah, but they don't wave.
But I see them round the front way. Yeah.
And I know, and I know. I don't want to stay.
Make me cry...

I see... Ooh I don't know why there's something else.
I wanna drum it all away...
Oh, I said, "I don't, I don't know where there's a boxer or the bag."

Ah yeah, can you see them out on the porch? Yeah, but they don't wave.
But I see them round the front way. Yeah.
And I know, and I know. I don't wanna stay at all.
I don't wanna stay. Yeah.
I don't wanna stay. [x2]

Kristofferson

Border Lord
Darkness had us covered when we split from minnesota in the morning
In the rain
Black as I was feeling and the street was slick and shiny as a snake
Each of us was a-humming to a half forgotten echo
Hangin’ over in the brain
Tappin’ time and thinking of the time we never had the time to take

Losing to the rising cost of living high and loving hard
And leavin’ every yesterday behind
Learning every bridge you cross, is burning down before you’re off and
Running
Like the devil just in time

Chorus:
Breakin’ any ties before they bind you
Taking any comfort you can find
Running like you’re running out of time
Take it all-take it easy-till it’s over-understanding
When you’re headin’ for the border lord
You’re bound to cross the line

Good lookin’ women every time you stumble
Waitin’ there to catch you when you fall
Gettin’ to you bad enough to let em
Keep you backin’ up till just before your back’s against the wall

Chorus:
Breakin’ any ties before they bind you
Takin’ any comfort you can find
Runnin’ like you’re runnin’ out of time
Take it all-take it easy-till it’s over-understanding
When you’re headin’ for the border lord
You’re bound to cross the line

Before you start laughing, bite me, I really like these guys.....
Toss and turn all night in the sheets
I can’t sleep
Night after night don’t know what it means
In my dreams

What can I say or do
You won’t come back, we’re through
I’ve realized too late
That, baby, your love has turned away

In my dreams--it’s still the same
Your love is strong, it still remains
In my dreams--you’re still by me
Just the way it used to be

Calling your name, but you’re turning away
Please don’t leave
Running in circles, waiting to see you
In my dreams

What can I say or do
You won’t come back, we’re through
I’ve realized too late
That, baby, your love has turned away

In my dreams--it’s still the same
Your love is strong, it still remains
In my dreams--you’re still by me
Just the way it used to be

In my dreams--it’s still the same
Your love is strong, it still remains
In my dreams--you’re still by me
Just the way it used to be

In my dreams--it’s still the same
Your love is strong, it still remains
In my dreams--you’ll always be
In my heart and in my dreams
In my dreams--it’s still the same
In my dreams--you’re still by me
In my dreams--just the way it used to be
In my dreams--what can I say
In my dreams--you’re still by me
And in my dreams--you’ll always be
In my dreams--you’ll always be
In my dreams--your love is strong
In my dreams--you’re still the same
In my dreams

Tom, get your plane right on time.
I know your part'll go fine.
Fly down to Mexico.
Da-n-da-da-n-da-n-da-da and here I am,
The only living boy in New York.

I get the news I need on the weather report.
I can gather all the news I need on the weather report.
Hey, I've got nothing to do today but smile.
Da-n-da-da-n-da-da-n-da-da here I am
The only living boy in New York

Half of the time we're gone but we don't know where,
And we don't know here.

Tom, get your plane right on time.
I know you've been eager to fly now.
Hey let your honesty shine, shine, shine
Da-n-da-da-n-da-da-n-da-da
Like it shines on me
The only living boy in New York,
The only living boy in New York.

Jesus Walking on the Water

Album: Hallowed Ground


Oh my oh my oh my
What if it was true
And oh my oh my
Tell me is it true

Did he did he did he
Die upon that cross
And did he did he did he
Come back a cross

Jesus walkin' on the water
Sweet Jesus walkin' in the sky
Sink in sand
Took my hand
Praised me up he brought me up
I can hold my my my head high

Will I will I will I
Be true to my word
And will I will I will I
Give what I learned

And yes sir yes sir yes sir
I come when you call
And yes sir yes sir yes sir
Jesus my all in all

Chorus x1

Wooden Ships--David Crosby

If you smile at me
I will understand
'Cause that is something
Everybody everywhere does in the same language

I can see by your coat, my friend
You're from the other side
There's just one thing I've got to know
Can you tell me please, who won

Say, can I have some of your purple berries
Yes, I've been eating them for six or seven weeks now
Haven't got sick once
Prob'ly keep us both alive

Wooden ships on the water, very free, and easy
Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be
Silver people on the shoreline let us be
Talk'n 'bout very free, and easy

Horror grips us as we watch you die
All we can do is echo your anguished cries
Stare as all human feelings die
We are leaving, you don't need us

Go take a sister, then, by the hand
Lead her away from this foreign land
Far away, where we might laugh again
We are leaving, you don't need us

And it's a fair wind
Blowin' warm out of the south over my shoulder
Guess I'll set a course and go
fall far and well Pilots!
