Everyone asks
Are we some kind of lovers?
Everyone asks what you’re doing with me
I know this is not what they want
They’re afraid you’ve been blinded
But I already know how it’s going to be
If anyone should ask
Say we’re mated
For as long as this life lasts
We are mated
Why else would you be here right now
And you know we’ll still be here tomorrow
Nobody else understands what I’m doing
Nobody else makes me act in this way
And because they can’t comprehend
What we mean to each other
They won’t leave you alone
So you know what to say
I hold you in my heart
’cause we’re mated
In a very special part
We are mated
Why else would I be here right now
And you know I’ll still be here tomorrow
I see things far ahead, maybe light
Maybe beautiful children
I don’t have words I’m thinking of
But it’s way beyond what they call love
If anyone should ask
Say we’re mated
For as long as this life lasts
We are mated
Why else would you be here right now
And you know we’ll still be here tomorrow
you're more advanced than a cockroach,
have you ever tried explaining yourself
to one of them?

Listen to the wind blow
Watch the sun rise
Run in the shadows
Damn your love
Damn your lies
And if
You don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain.
List to the wind blow
Down comes the night
Run in the shadows
Damn your love
Damn your lies
Break the silence
Damn the dark
Damn the light
And if
You don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain.
Let me rock you in my arms
I'll hold you safe and small
A refugee from the Seraphim
In your rich girl rags and all
Did your dreams die young
Were they too hard won
Did you reach too high and fall
And there is no rest
For the ones God blessed
And he blessed you best of all
Your eyes seem from a different face
They've seen that much that soon
Your cheek too cold, too pale to shine
Like an old and waning moon
And there is no peace
No true release
No secret place to crawl
And there is no rest
For the ones God blessed
And he blessed you best of all
If tears unshed could heal your heat
If words unsaid could sway
Then watch you melt into the night
with Adieu, and rue the day
Did your dreams die young
Were they too hard won
Did you reach too high and fall
And there is no rest
For the ones God blessed
And he blessed you best of all
you're more advanced than a cockroach,
have you ever tried explaining yourself
to one of them?

It's late at night and we're all alone,
just the music on the radio.
No one's comin', no one's gonna telephone.
Just me and you and the lights down low.
We're slow dancin', swayin' to the music.
slow dancin', just me and my girl.
Slow dancin', swayin' to the music.
no one else in the whole wide world,
Just you, girl.
And we just flow together when the lights are low,
Shadows dancin' all across the wall.
Music's playin' so soft and slow
The rest of the world's so far away and small, when...
We're slow dancin', swayin' to the music.
slow dancin', just me and my girl.
Slow dancin', swayin' to the music.
no one else in the whole wide world,
Just you, girl.
Hold me, oh hold me, no, never let me go.
And as we dance together in the dark,
So much love in this heart of mine.
Whisper to me, hold me tight.
You're the one I thought I'd never find,
And now...
We're slow dancin', swayin' to the music.
slow dancin', just me and my girl.
Slow dancin', swayin' to the music.
no one else in the whole wide world,
Just you, girl.
He/She who dies with the most toys wins! Wait a minute ... I can't die!!!
In my time of dying, want nobody to mourn
All I want for you to do is take my body home
Well, well, well, so I can die easy,
Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Jesus, got to make you... sure know, Jesus, gonna make you
Jesus, gonna make you my dyin' bed, Meet me, Jesus, meet me
Ooh, meet me in the middle of the air
If my wings should fail me, Lord
Oh, please meet me with another pair
Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Oh-oh, well, well, well, so I can die easy
Jesus, gonna make you... somebody, somebody
Oh, oh, Jesus gonna make you
Jesus gonna make you my dyin' bed
Oh, Saint Peter, at the gates of hea'en
Won't you let me in, I never did no harm
I never did no wrong, Oh, oh Gabriel, let me blow your horn
Let me blow your horn, Oh, I never did, did no harm
Did no harm, I've only been this young once
I never thought I'd do anybody no wrong
No, not once, oh, Oh, good, Oh, I did somebody some good
Somebody some good, yes-oh,
Oh, did somebody some good, yeah
I must have did somebody some good, yeah, Oh, I believe I did
I see the smilin' faces,
I know there must be lipstick traces, oh God
And I see them in the streets, And I see them in the field
And I hear them shouting under my feet
And I know it's got to be real, Oh, Lord, deliver me
All the wrong I've done, Ooh, you can deliver me, Lo-ord
I only wanted to have some fun
Oh, hear the angels marchin', hear the' marchin', hear them marchin', hear them, marchin', the' marchin'
Oh my Jesus, oh my Gina, oh my Jesus, oh my Jesus,
oh my Gina, oh my Gina, Oh my Jesus, oh my Jesus, oh my Gina, oh my Je-ah-oh, ah my
Je-hey, yeah, that's got to be my Jesus, whoa-whoa
It's got to be, it's got to be my Jesus
It's got to be, oh It's got to be my Jesus
Oh, gonna take me home, Come on, come on
I can hear the angels singin'
Oh, here they come, here they come, here they come
Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye
Oh, it feels pretty good up here, pretty good up here
I'll touch Jesus, I'll touch Jesus, I'll touch Jesus, I'll touch Jesus, I'll touch Jesus, Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Oh, I see him, yeah, Come on, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take
Ooh, yes, come on, oh, oh yeah,
Oh, don't you make it my dyin', dyin', dyin'...

Cough...
(That's gonna be the one, isn't it?)
(Come have a listen, then.)
(Oh yes, thank you
(with thanks to dAN the man, for helpin me figure out the name of this song from VERY LITTLE clues)

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
And when the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree,
There will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be. Yeah
There will be an answer, let it be.
And when the night is cloudy,
There is still a light that shines on me,
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be,
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
Nights in white satin, never reaching the end,
Letters I've written, never meaning to send.
Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before.
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore.
'Cause I love you, yes I love you, oh how I love you.
Gazing at people, some hand in hand,
Just what I'm going through they can't understand.
Some try to tell me, thoughts they cannot defend,
Just what you want to be, you will be in the end.
And I love you, yes I love you,
Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.
Nights in white satin, never reaching the end,
Letters I've written, never meaning to send.
Beauty I've always missed, with these eyes before.
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore.
'Cause I love you, yes I love you,
Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.
'Cause I love you, yes I love you,
Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.
Breath deep
The gathering gloom
Watch lights fade
From every room
Bedsitter people
Look back and lament
Another day's useless
Energy spent
Impassioned lovers
Wrestle as one
Lonely man cries for love
And has none
New mother picks up
And suckles her son
Senior citizens
Wish they were young
Cold hearted orb
That rules the night
Removes the colours
From our sight
Red is gray and
Yellow white
But we decide
Which is right
And
Which is an Illusion
The woman was a dream I had though rather hard to keep
For when my eyes were watching hers, they closed, and I was still asleep
For when my hand was holding hers, she whispered words and I awoke
And faintly bouncing around the room the echo of whomever spoke
I awoke and faintly bouncing round the room the echo of whomever spoke
The place I saw was far beneath the surface of the sea
My sight was poor but I was sure the sirens sang their songs for me
They dance above me as I sink I see them through a crystal haze
And hear them bouncing round the room the never ending coral maze
That time and once again I'm bouncing around the room
Like a flower waiting to bloom
Like a lightbulb in a dark room
I'm just sitting here waiting for you
To come home and turn me on
Like the desert waiting for the rain
Like a school kid waiting for the spring
I'm just sitting here waiting for you
To come on home and turn me on
My poor heart, it's been so dark since you been gone
After all, you're the one who turns me off
You're the only one who can turn me back on
My hi-fi's waiting for a new tune
The glass is waiting for some fresh ice cubes
I'm just sitting here waiting for you
To come on home and turn me on
Turn me on
I think I'm gonna be sad,
I think it's today, yeah.
The girl that's driving me mad
Is going away.
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ride,
But she don't care.
She said that living with me
Is bringing her down yeah.
For she would never be free
When I was around.
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ride,
But she don't care.
I don't know why she's ridin' so high,
She ought to think twice,
She ought to do right by me.
Before she gets to saying goodbye,
She ought to think twice,
She ought to do right by me.
I think I'm gonna be sad,
I think it's today yeah.
The girl that's driving me mad
Is going away, yeah.
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ride,
But she don't care.
I don't know why she's ridin' so high,
She ought to think twice,
She ought to do right by me.
Before she gets to saying goodbye,
She ought to think twice,
She ought to do right by me.
She said that living with me,
Is bringing her down, yeah.
For she would never be free
When I was around.
Ah, she's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ride,
But she don't care.
My baby don't care, my baby don't care.
My baby don't care, my baby don't care.
My baby don't care, my baby don't care.
(Lyrics inspired by "Marks," a monologue from the book TALKING WITH by Jane Martin)
You're the one with the perfect skin
Unscarred by any passion
I'm the man who's wondering
If I'm just this year's fashion
If you say I'm written on your life
And your eyes are wide open
If you say I'm written on your soul
Then write me on your skin
Tattoo
Tattoo me on you
Tattoo
Tattoo me on you
Don't make me no promises
Don't wear a ring for me
'Cuz you'll take it off your finger
When you think no one can see
And I don't care if we're not
Together in the end
But if you say I'm written on your soul
Then write me on your skin
Tattoo
Tattoo me on you
Tattoo
Tattoo me on you
It doesn't have to be my name
It doesn't have to by my silhouette
You'll think of something
Use your own alphabet
People are gonna ask questions
They're gonna want a story
What are you gonna tell them
Tell them about me
Tell them about me
I don't think that the perfect life
Is coming through without a scratch
If your inside is worth knowing
Then your outside reads like a map
Now this might hurt a little
New lives begin with little pains
But if I'm written on your soul
Then write me on your skin
Tattoo
Tattoo me on you
Tattoo
Tattoo me on you

Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion
I'm afraid there's no denying
I'm just a dandelion
a fate I don't deserve.
Be in my video,
Darling, every night
I will rent a cage for you
And mi-j-i-nits dressed in white
(teeny-little-tiny-little...)
Twirl around in a lap dissolve
Pretend to sing the words
I'll rent a gleaming limousine;
Release a flock of Ber-herna-herna-herna
Herna-her-nerds
Wear a leather collar
And a dagger in your ear
(Stabbin' and a-stabbin' and a-stabbin' and a-stabbin' at you-ou-ou-ou-ou)
I will make you smell the glove
And try to look sincere, then we'll
Dance the blues (Oh yes)
Let's dance the blues (We'll dance the blues)
Let's dance the blues (We'll dance them very much)
Under the megawatt moonlight
Pretend to be Chinese,
(One-hung-low)
I'll make you wear red shoes
There's a cheesy atom bomb explosion
All the big groups use
Atomic light will shine
Through an old venetian blind
Making patterens on your face,
Then it cuts to outer space
With its billions & billions &
Billions & billions and
Be in my video
Darling, every night
Everyone in cable-land
Will say you're 'outta-sight'
You can show your legs
While you're getting in the car, then
I will look repulsive
While I mangle my guitar
After all the closeup shots of you
In bondage leather
They'll spray an alley with a hose
And we'll escape together
Then we'll dance the blues again (Oh yes, we'll dance the blues)
Let's dance the blues again (Sure we will)
Let's dance the blues again (We'll dance them blues)
In the middle of an alley
Let's dance your face (Let's dance your face)
Let's dance your lips (And dance your lips)
Let's dance your nose (We'll dance your nose)
And then we'll dance your sinus!
Wooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooooooo!

Just as I thought it was going alright
I find out I'm wrong, when I thought I was right
S'always the same, it's just a shame, that's all
I could say day, you'd say night
Tell it's black when I know that it's white
S'always the same, it's just a shame, that's all
I could leave but I won't go
Though my heart might tell me so
I can't feel a thing from my head down to my toes
So why does it always seem to be
Me looking at you, you looking at me
S'always the same, it's just a shame, that's all
Turning me on, turning me off
Making me feel like I want too much
Living with you's just putting me through it all of the time
Running around, staying out all night
Taking it all instead of taking one bite
Living with you's just putting me through it all of the time
I could leave but I won't go
It'd be easier I know
I can't feel a thing from my head down to my toes
But why does it always seem to be
Me looking at you, you looking at me
S'always the same, just a shame, that's all
Truth is I love you
More than I wanted to
There's no point in trying to pretend
There's been no-one who
Makes me feel like you do
Say we'll be together til the end
I could leave but I won't go
It'd be easier I know
I can't feel a thing from my head down to my toes
But why does it always seem to be
Me looking at you, you looking at me
S'always the same, just a shame, that's all
Just as I thought it was going alright
I find out I'm wrong when I thought I was right
S'always the same, just a shame, that's all
I could say day, you'd say night
Tell me it's black when I know that it's white
S'always the same, it's just a shame, that's all
You're a little long
in the tooth, babe
Me, I'm puffy
and under the weather
But the drunker I get,
that band gets tight,
and honey, you're lookin' better
So here's to dim lights
in dingy bars,
to the alcohol haze and the smoke
and the chance
to reinvent ourselves
Hey baby, let's go for broke
And pretend I'm Elvis
for just one night
I will call you priscilla,
if that's alright
Hey don't we look sorta like em'
in the neon light?
Let's pretend I'm Elvis, darlin'
for just one night
Now it's one a.m
and we follow the band
down a dead and lonely street
Here's a song about our destiny,
how we were meant to meet
So drink up honey and wrap me in
good looks, fortune and fame
I don't need to know
who you really are
You don't need to know my name
Just pretend I'm Elvis
for just one night
I will call you priscilla,
if that's alright
Hey don't we look sorta like em'
in the neon light?
Let's pretend I'm Elvis, darlin'
for just one night
Three more drinks
and that cab outside
will become a limo
You and me
we gotta hang on tight
to this fragile spell
But girl, it ain't easy
and I get queasy as hell
lookin' at a map
where every road leads back
to my room at the
Heartbreak Hotel
We all need God's redemption,
honey
Tonight Graceland is a bar
And even if I don't sing too good,
or play the guitar
I think I could love you tender,
treat you like a queen,
We can work a little magic
If you'll imagine I'm the King
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion
I'm afraid there's no denying
I'm just a dandelion
a fate I don't deserve.
I watch the Western sky
The sun is sinking
The geese are flying South
It sets me thinking
I did not miss you much
I did not suffer
What did not kill me
Just made me tougher
I feel the winter come
His icy sinews
Now in the firelight
The case continues
Another night in court
The same old trial
The same old questions asked
The same denial
The shadows closely run
Like jury members
I look for answers in
The fire's embers
Why was I missing then
That whole December
I give my usual line:
I don't remember
Another winter comes
His icy fingers creep
Into these bones of mine
These memories never sleep
And all these differences
A cloak I borrow
We kept our distances
Why should it follow I must have loved you
What is the force that binds the stars
I wore this mask to hide my scars
What is the power that pulls the tide
I never could find a place to hide
What moves the Earth around the sun
What could I do but run and run and run
Afraid to love, afraid to fail
A mast without a sail
The moon's a fingernail and slowly sinking
Another day begins and now I'm thinking
That this indifference was my invention
When everything I did sought your attention
You were my compass star
You were my measure
You were a pirate's map
A buried treasure
If this was all correct
The last thing I'd expect
The prosecution rests
It's time that I confess: I must have loved you
Some of us, We're hardly ever here
The rest of us, we're born to disappear
How do I stop myself from
Being just a number
How will I hold my head
To keep from going under
Down to the wire
I wanted water but
I'll walk through the fire
If this is what it takes
To take me even higher
Then I'll come through
Like I do
When the world keeps
Testing me, testing me,testing me
How did they find me here
What do they want from me
All of these vultures hiding
Right outside my door
I hear them whisperin
They're tryin to ride it out
Cause they've never gone this long
Without a kill before
Down to the wire
I wanted water but
I'll walk through the fire
If this is what it takes
To take me even higher
Then I'll come through
Like I do
When the world keeps
Testing me, testing me, testing me
Wheels up
I got to leave this evening
Can't seem to shake these vultures
Off of my trail
Power is made, by power being taken
So I keep on running
To protect my situation
Down to the wire
I wanted water but
I'll walk through the fire
If this is what it takes
To take me even higher
Then I'll come through
Like I do
When the world keeps
Testing me, testing me
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Whatcha gonna do about it
Whatcha gonna do about it
You guys knew I would find this thread eventually!!! I dedicate this to the boys of the watch.....
I love myself I want you to love me
When I feel down I want you above me
I search myself I want you to find me
I forget myself I want you to remind me
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you I touch myself
Ooh I don't want anybody else Oh no, oh no, oh no
You're the one who makes me come running
You're the sun who makes me shine
When you're around I'm always laughing
I want to make you mine
I close my eyes and see you before me
Think I would die if you were to ignore me
A fool could see just how much I adore you
I get down on my knees I do anything for you
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you I touch myself
Ooh I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no
I want you I don't want anybody else
And when I think about you I touch myself
Ooh, ooh, oo, oo. ahh
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you I touch myself
Ooh I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Somebody just HAD to do it...might as well be me....and just for the record, Christine Amphlette has some mighty fine pipes, her vocals on the less popular tracks are A-MAZ-ING!
Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....
