"Ooh wah, ooh wah
Ooh wah, ooh wah
Ooh wah, ooh wah
Why do fools fall in love?

Why do birds sing so gay
And lovers await the break of the day
Why do they fall in love?
Why does the rain fall from up above?
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do they fall in love?

Love is a losing game
Love can be a shame
I know, i'm a fool you see
For that fool is me"

dianna ross, "why do fools fall in love"

From the day we met
I knew you were the one
who stole my heart and ran with love
Now here you are
making me cry inside
no longer will I be a prisoner of your love


You, listen to me
I'm speakng my mind
I'm not gonna let you keep waiting my time
As hard as it is
As much as I'll cry
I want you to know
That I'm saying goodbye
How long did you think we could go on?
While your treating me wrong and kept feeding me lies
I'm letting you know, so don't be surprised
When I let you go and start living my life


Chorus:
Cause no one's gonna change you
And I won't even waste my time
I'm gonna find someone who will treat me right
Cause no one's gonna change you
And I won't even waste my time
I'm gonna find someone who will treat me right


There were times I believed things could work out
But as hard as I tried I was alwas in doubt
Now as sad as it is I'm sorry to say
My love has moved on and my hearts turned away
Some day you will see
That you've made a mistake
By the time you wake up it'll all be to late
Cause I will have moved on and found someones new
Who wants to be mine the way I've wanted you


Chorus
Cause no one's gonna change you
And I won't even waste my time
I'm gonna find someone who will treat me right
Cause no one's gonna change you
And I won't even waste my time
I'm gonna find someone who will treat me right


I gave you all of my time
Didn't mean that much to you
Showered you with all of my love
And all you did was push my love
now you want me to stay
I can't believe in you
when I'm finally working up the strength to walk away
And no one's gonna change into you
no, no I'm gonna find someone who will treat me right


Chorus (to fade)
Cause no one's gonna change you
And I won't even waste my time
I'm gonna find someone who will treat me right
Cause no one's gonna change you
And I won't even waste my time
I'm gonna find someone who will treat me right

And the sign says "long hair freaky people need not apply"
So I put my hair under my hat and I went in to ask him why
He said you look like a fine outstanding young man I think you'll do
So I took off my hat I said "Imagine that Huh Me working for you"

And the sign says "Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight"
So I jumped the fence and I yelled at the house, Hey! What gives you the right
To put up a fence And keep me out Or to keep Mother Nature in
If God was here He'd tell it to your face Man You're some kind of sinner

And the sign says "Everybody welcome Come in Kneel down and pray"
But then they passed around a plate at the end of it all
And I didn't have a penny to pay
So I got me a pen and paper And I made up my own fucking sign
I said Thank you Lord for thinking about me I'm alive and doing fine

When you're alone
And life is making you lonely,
You can always go downtown
When you've got worries,
All the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know, downtown

Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?

The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares and go
Downtown, things'll be great when you're
Downtown, no finer place for sure,
Downtown, everything's waiting for you
(Downtown)

Don't hang around
And let your problems surround you
There are movie shows downtown
Maybe you know
Some little places to go to
Where they never close downtown

Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossanova
You'll be dancing with 'em, too, before the night is over
Happy again

The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares and go
Downtown where all the lights are bright,
Downtown, waiting for you tonight,
Downtown, you're gonna be alright now
(Downtown downtown)

Downtown
(Downtown)

And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along

So, maybe I'll see you there
We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares and go
Downtown, things'll be great when you're
Downtown, don't wait a minute more,
Downtown, everything's waiting for you

"Well, downtown charlie
Was a place on my daddie's and a
Well my pistol was a tripper
And i didn't feel so bad
Well be comin' round with roses
Put my hands on my feet
And my turnin' to the luck picture
I put my neat
Well, the gang's all here
And i'm feelin' fine
Ah, you gotta lose your mind
He was a countdown
Oh, that was a downtown

Said, swing low slicker
Future goin' lover"

-aerosmith, "downtown charlie"

Dear lover
Do you remember?
The sound of your laughter and demise
And that was all
I need to fall in love

This matter
It's something bigger
Anything ever graced my heart
And that was all
I could fall in love...with you
And I can't stall this now

Did you find some hapiness with me?
Now I know the way true love should be

Dear lover
Do you remember?
The beats of my heart that I gave you
And that was all
I need to fall in love

It shattered
Slipped through my fingers
Floated down safely into your hands
And that was all
I could fall in love...with you
I can't stall this now

Dear Lover - Foo Fighters

There you see her
Sitting there across the way
She don't got a lot to say
But there's something about her
And you don't know why
But you're dying to try
You wanna kiss the girl

Yes, you want her
Look at her, you know you do
Possible she wants you too
There is one way to ask her
It don't take a word
Not a single word
Go on and kiss the girl

Sha la la la la la
My oh my
Look like the boy too shy
Ain't gonna kiss the girl
Sha la la la la la
Ain't that sad?
Ain't it a shame?
Too bad, he gonna miss the girl

Now's your moment
Floating in a blue lagoon
Boy you better do it soon
No time will be better
She don't say a word
And she won't say a word
Until you kiss the girl

Sha la la la la la
Don't be scared
You got the mood prepared
Go on and kiss the girl

Don't try to hide it how

You wanna kiss the girl
You've gotta kiss the girl
Go on and kiss the girl

Little Mermaid-Kiss the Girl

Some girls like to buy new shoes
And others like drivin' trucks and wearing tatoos
There's only one thing that they all like a bunch
Oh, girls, they wanna have lunch
Oh, girls just wanna have lunch
I know how to keep a woman satisfied
When I whip out my Diner's Card their eyes get so wide
They're always in the mood for something to munch
Oh, girls, they wanna have lunch
Oh, girls just wanna have...
That's all they really want
Some lunch
Don't ask 'em to dinner or breakfast or brunch
'Cause girls, they wanna have lunch
Oh, girls just wanna have lunch
(Girls they want, wanna have lunch
Girls, wanna have...)
She eats like she got a whole in her neck
And I'm the one who always gets stuck with the check
Can't figure out how come they don't weigh a ton
Oh, girls, they wanna have lunch
Oh, girls just wanna have...
That's all they really want
Some lunch
Don't know for certain but I've got a hunch
Those girls, they wanna have lunch
Oh, girls just wanna have lunch
(Girls they want, wanna have lunch
Girls, wanna have)
They just wanna, they just wanna
(Girls) They just wanna, they just wanna
Girls, girls just wanna have lunch!

I'll let myself in!
Are you Lee?
These words come right from me,
They're to you and your name is Lee,
Can you fix me a treat?
Maybe some mystery meat.
I love you girl, I sing this song,
You have the shower cap on,
When you're servin' all that food.
Hey!
Do you like it when you spoon out the food,
Do you like it, Lee?
Oh Lee, aiiyeah Lee,
Would you like to serve me? (unbuckles belt)
On Monday - meatloaf. (pulls back shirt)
On Tuesday - steak. (touches butt)
On Wednesday - pork. (poses)
On Thursday - chicken. (acts like chicken)
And Friday,
It's the best day of all,
Because you get to have a little spaghetti,
And two great meatballs...
(cracks up)
Oh Lee!

Whose line is it Anyways-Lee the Lunch Lady (stripo gram style)

Lee, Lee, Lee, Lee,
Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee,
We're talkin' f***in' Lee.
I had a friend named Lee,
He cast a spell a spell on me.
If me and Lee and KG could be three,
Flyin' free Tenaciously,
Skinny-dippin' in a sea of Lee,
I'd propose on bended knee
To Lee Lee Lee, Lee Lee Lee,
Lee Lee,
Lee Lee Lee, Lee Lee Lee,
Lee Lee,

Plant A Tree/John Denver

(was doing that off the top of my head. Hahahaha I used a John Denver song. hahahahaha)

At some turning point in history,
Some f--kface recognized that knowledge tends to democratize cultures and societies
So the only thing to do was monopolize and confine it to priests,
Clerics and elites (the rest resigned to serve),
Cuz if the rabble heard the truth they'd organize against the power,
Privilege and wealth hoarded by the few - for no one else.
And did it occur to you that it's almost exactly the same today?
And so if our schools won't teach us,
We'll have to teach ourselves to analyze and understand the systems of thought - control.
And share it with each other,
Never sayed by brass rings or the threat of penalty.
I'll promise you - you promise me -
Not to sell each other out to murderers, to thieves...
Who've manufactured our delusion that you and me participate meaningfully
In the process of running our own lives.
Yeah, you can vote however the f--k you want,
But power still calls all the shots.
And believe it or not, even if (real) democracy broke loose,
Power would just "make the economy scream" until we vote responsibly.

Propagandhi- A People's History of the World
(on a side note i think this is one of their cleaner songs- i.e. not as much swearing)

Death and the shadow that it casts on life scares me little or none.
People tell me of a divine right and the happy chosen one.
I'm a freak 'cause my morals clash with others in the world.
I go home while they work hard, then they same I'm wrong.
There's only one place to be, while living with tragedy.
If their sins affected me, I gotta be damned to be free.
Freedom is responsibility, pay more than it's worth.
Instincts tells us not to die, hazy myth since birth.
Learn their rules, play their game, deceive yourself in haste.
Turn your own brain into dust; it's not theirs to waste.
There's only one place to be, while living with tragedy.
Extract the nectar, burn the tree, I gotta be damned to be free
Thinking... This world it ain't so bad.
Dying... It's just another fad.
Working... 8 hours, that's not for me.
Dying... It's just your destiny

Bad Religon-Damned to be Free

Ahhhh....
Crush.....
Ahhhh....
I see ya blowin' me a kiss.
It doesn't take a scientist
To understand what's going on baby....
If you see something in my eye,
Let's not over analyze.
Don't go too deep with it baby...

So let it be what it'll be.
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me....
Here's what I'll do,
I'll play loose.
Run like we have a day with destiny.

It's just a little crush (crush).
Not like I faint every time we touch....
It's just some little thing (crush).
Not like everything I do... depends on you....
(some Sha-la-la-las)

It's raising my adrenaline.
You're banging on a heart of tin
Please don't make too much of it baby.....
Say the word "forevermore"
That's not what I'm looking for....
All I can commit to is "maybe".....

"Crush" -Jennifer Paige
(song cut off so that it ends with a somewhat decent word.... lol)

I dragged this lake looking for corpses
Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards
Pieces of planes and black box recorders
Don't lie
And I've been preoccupied with these sick, sick senses
That sense DNA on barbed wire fences
Maybe someday I'll find me a suspect
That has no alibi
New Year's Eve was as boring as heaven
I watched flies f***k on channel 11
There was no one to kiss, there was nothing to drink
Except some old rotten milk someone left in the sink
And there's no ring on the phone anymore
There's no reason to call I passed out on the floor
Smoked myself stupid and drank my insides raisin dry
But at the right place at the right time
I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine
And I won't have to quit doing f**ked up shit
For anyone but me
And at the right place at the right time
It will have been worth it to stand in line
And you won't have to stop
Saying "I love cops" for anyone but me
Your private eye

Alkaline Trio - Private Eye

down on the ocean, sure of my arrival,
the waves are fallin', but i don't mind,
visions gone right to my head i try and break it down,
what it means all this i've seen i've ot to understand

Bang my head i keep thinking
although an empty cup i keep drinking
visions in my dreams are more real than they seem,

nothing heard but silence, put on a painted face,
the island sun is beating down, beating down and so,
flower my imagination, accepted in denial,
no inspiration, i'm out of, out of my mind

empty thoughts i keep thinking
pulled back down i keep sinking
visions in my dreams are more real than they seem

Breakin' up, i can't believe it
stand back up, to be knocked over again
crashin' down, gonna drag you back to the back of the back
of the wrong line

Blink a shade of color, the mist forces my eye
to shut i can't open it yet i, an yet i'll try
silhouette of angel, whispers where i belong
i ask her "Where?" she says look down,

she's so soft, yet my ears they keep ringing,
don't believe keep blinking
visions in my dreams are more real than, more real than they seem

Granian-"Visions"

Our cities seem to function quite the same:
Sweeping ghettos under one big rug makes them easier to contain,
So the upper - middle class can sleep
(or shop in peace)
And convince themselves that "trickle - down" will solve this poverty.
Yes, murderers walk our streets and their weapons are their pens, desks, policies and P. R. campaigns
(fed by the spoils of war)
Against the "lazy, shiftless" populations of the poor.
This system cannot be reformed...
(so how about we try something different?)

Propagandhi- Rio de San Atlanta, Manitoba

you chose your side, you'll get yours in the end. you play along to the same old song just as long as you can win, when someone better comes along, you're too cool to let them in. so now i've got you wonderin' if i've got it in for you. i'd like to tell you different but i can't because it's true.

A.F.I - Your name here

To pretend no one can find
The fallacies of morning rose
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes
Curtises that I despise in me
Take a ride, take a shot now

Cos nobody loves me
Its true
Not like you do

Covered by the blind belief
That fantasies of sinful screens
Bear the facts, assume the dye
End the vows no need to lie, enjoy
Take a ride, take a shot now

Cos nobody loves me
Its true
Not like you do

Who oo am I, what and why
Cos all I have left is my memories of yesterday
Ohh these sour times

Cos nobody loves me
Its true
Not like you do

After time the bitter taste
Of innocence decent or race
Scattered seeds, buried lives
Mysteries of our disguise revolve
Circumstance will decide...

Sour Times/Portishead

It doesn't matter what I say
As long as I sing with inflection
That makes you feel I'll convey
Some inner truth of vast reflection
But I've said nothing so far
And I can keep it up for as longggg as it takes
And it don't matter who you are
If I'm doing my job
Then it's your resolve that breaks

Because the hook brings you back....
I ain't tellin' you no lie....
The hook brings you back....
On that you can rely....

There is something amiss--I am being insincere
In fact I don't mean any of this
Still my confession draws you near
To confuse the issue I refer
To familiar heroes
From long ago
No matter how much Peter loved her
What made the Pan refuse to grow

Was that the hook brings you back....
I ain't tellin' you no lie....
The hook brings you back....
On that you can rely.....

(really fast part... lol)
Suck it in, suck it in, suck it in
If you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn
Make a desperate move or else you'll win
And then begin to see
What you're doing to me
This MTV is not for free
It's so PC it's killing me
So desperately I sing to thee of love
Sure but also rage and hate and pain and fear of self
And I can't keep these feelings on the shelf
I've tried well no in fact I lied
Could be financial suicide but I've got
Too much pride inside to hide or slide
I'll do as I'll decide and let it ride until I've died
And only then shall I abide this tide
Of catchy little tunes of hip three minute ditties
I wanna bust all your balloons
I wanna burn all of your cities
To the ground I've found
I will not mess around
Unless I play then hey
I will go on all day hear what I say
I have a prayer to pray
That's really all this was
And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck
I don't rely on lunch because...

Because the hook brings you back....
I ain't tellin' you no lie....
The hook brings you back....
On that you can rely....

"Hook" -Blues Traveler

Rely on me
Devil take tomorrow
Take these blues away
Too much pain and sorrow
All our yesterdays

There's a world a waiting
Where you reap just what you sow
No good contemplating
So come with me and watch it grow

Rely on me
Rely on me
Rely on me
I will set you free
I'll break down the walls and set you free

Moon is bright in my sky
Nightingale sings sweet sweet

You're the song in my heart
Put your faith in me
Let's not cool the spirit
Waste each other's time
It's my world i want you in it
Trust in me and what we're sure to find

Rely on me
Rely on me
Rely on me
I will set you free
I'll break down the walls and set you free

Rely on me
Rely on me
Rely on me
I will set you free
I'll break down the walls and set you free
-leo sayer, "rely on me"

They come from a land were the sun dont shine
running away from the cold
They travel so far in the name of love
hoping the dreams will come true

Walking the way through endless fields
trying to make it together
And they will give anything
just to be free from the pain
and they wont surrender

Living in a world of promises
Living in a world of dreams and hopes
Living in a world of promises

Lost in the city wondering why
no one will open the door
Its more to the truth than meets the eye
something they all felt before
And they will give anything
just to stand tall once again
and they wont surrender

Living in a world of promises
Living in a world of dreams and hopes
Living in a world of promises

In the tan of the night can hear them crying
out for a life to hold on to
Somebody knows were the answers lying
wait for your trails and dont let go

Living in a world of promises
Living in a world of dreams and hopes
Living in a world of promises

In Flames- 'World of Promises"

She knows three years was too long to keep waitin
But somehow she was hopin she would change him
Still all his words turned to dust
And who can survive in a love without trust

If promises were gold she could pay off all the bills
And buy that pretty house sitting high on the hill
If she only had the money for every lie she's been told
She'd be a rich woman now, if promises were gold

By six o'clock he'll miss her rusty chevy
Won't take long to notice dinner isnt ready
Then he'll call up everyone she knows
Sayin i'll do her right if she'll only come home
-linda davis, "if promises were gold"

Home on a kite we fly,
Home on a breeze we blow
Eyeing the folks below and
Watching everybody run,
Each one heading for a different place
Watching everybody hide,
Each behind a different face

Home where the days are long
Back where the people are free,
Home where all sides agree and,
Everybody has a friend, oh
And no one ever has to grab
Everybody shares the love,
Giving everything they have.

Forever forever your lamp will burn
Forever home forever would that you'd learn
That you came with nothing
So with nothing you'll return

Home/Cat Stevens

That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence
Love - Devotion
Feeling - Emotion
Love - Devotion
Feeling - Emotion
Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence
If you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself don't hide
Just believe in destiny
Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence
That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence
Don't care what people say
Follow just your own way Follow just your own way
Don't give up, don't give up
To return, to return to innocence.
If you want then laugh
If you must then cry
Be yourself don't hide
Just believe in destiny.

Return of Innocence-Engima

Listen carefully, spider of destiny
You must heed the call of cosmo-biology
Listen to me

If you eat the earthlings now
things will all be fine and then
we'll repair our love somehow
and resume the busy schedule of our ruthless conquest once again

Listen carefully, spider of destiny
I will not allow this marvelous opportunity to be taken from me
Taken from me...

Eat the earth people, eat them and chew them and brutally
stomp on the rest of what's left and then report to me
for the conquest of earth and the moon and the stars
and the space in between, all the comets and stars will be ours

Eat the earth people, eat them and chew them and brutally
stomp on the rest of what's left...

Spider of destiny/Frank Zappa

Losing a whole year
I remember you and me used to spend the whole damned day in bed
Losing a whole year
Lying in your room we'd lay like dogs
The phone would ring like a joke that's left unsaid
Rich daddy left you with a parachute
Your voice sounds like money and your face is cute
But your daddy left you with no love
You touch everything with a velvet glove and
Now you want to try a life of sin
You want to be down with the down and in
Always copping my truths
I kind of get the feeling like I'm being used
And now I realize you never heard
One goddamned thing I ever said
Losing a whole year
Took your stuff and put it in the basement
When I found out what the smile on your face meant
I've seen you pop that check
Craning your neck at my car wreck
It always seems the juice used to flow
In the car, in the kitchen you were good to go
Now we're stuck with the tube
A sink full of dishes and some aqualube
I remember you and me used to spend the whole damned day in bed
Losing a whole year
And if it's not the defense then you're on the attack
When you start talking I hear the Prozac
Convinced you've found your place
With the pierced queer teens in Cyberspace
When you were yourself it tasted sweet
But it sours into a routine deceit
Well this drama is a bore
And I don't want to play no more
I remember you and me used to spend the whole damned day in bed
Losing a whole year

hes the prettyies thing
we got the same disorder
its the way you feel
its ok
its never going to change anyway
it hit me i got everything i need
it hit me i got everything i need
are you ready to be liberated
on this sad side city street
well the birds have been freed from there cages
ive got freedom and my YOUTH
distillers- young crazed peeling

I went searching for the truth
But in my innocence I found
All the con men and their acrobats
Who stomped me in the ground
If I count up their percentages
I know they're getting rich
But they haven't taken everything
Those paybacks are a bitch
Though I've lost quite a lot
I am still in control
They can keep what they've got
But they can't have my soul
And if I don't have this all worked out
Still I'm getting closer, getting closer
I still have far to go no doubt
But I'm getting closer, getting closer

What was ripped off by professionals
Is not all that it seems
While I must live up to contracts
I did not give up my dreams
If I see it as experience
It hasn't gone to waste
Lately all the missing pieces
Have been falling into place

And if I could go back and start over somehow
I would not change that much
Knowing what I know now
Thought there have been sins
I will regret
Still I'm getting close, getting closer
I don't have all the answers yet
But I'm getting closer, getting closer

I'm a mark for every shyster
From Topanga to Berlin
And I should have learned to kick them out
As soon as they crawled in
So to every bank in Switzerland
That stores my stolen youthI'm alright because despite the laws
You cannot hide the truth

And although you will say
I am still too naive
But I have not lost faith
In the things I believe

And if I don't have a this all worked out
Still I'm getting closer, getting closer
I still have far to go no doubt
But I'm still getting closer, getting closer

Billy Joel- Getting Closer

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way

pink floyd - Time

So I've betrayed self
So I've betrayed you
So what now?
So what do we do?

Pushing you away
Away from me

So I'm, I'm confused
So you're not amused
So I'm feeling used
So what do we do?

Pushing you away
Away from me

Empty inside
I'm dying, I'm crying
She makes me bad
Betrays my head
Empty inside
I'm dying, I'm crying
She makes me bad

Static-X - ''So''

On the day I was born
The nurses all gathered 'round
And they gazed in wide wonder
At the joy they had found
The head nurse spoke up
And she said "leave this one alone"
She could tell right away
That I was bad to the bone

Bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone

I broke a thousand hearts
Before I met you
I'll break a thousand more, baby
Before I am through
I wanna be yours pretty baby
Yours and yours alone
I'm here to tell ya honey
That I'm bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone

SOLO

I make a rich woman beg
I'll make a good woman steal
I'll make an old woman blush
And make a young woman squeal
I wanna be yours pretty baby
Yours and yours alone
I'm here to tell ya honey
That I'm bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone

SOLO 2

And when I walk the streets
Kings and Queens step aside
Every woman I meet
They all stay satisfied
I wanna tell ya pretty baby
Well Ya see I make my own
I'm here to tell ya honey
That I'm bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone

George Thurgood- Bad to the Bone

Give me one more field
With the bones of a child
Give me one more day
To charismatize

Because
Here comes the devil

'Devil' - The Driven.

Fee, fee, fi, fi, fo-fo, fum
Look at Molly now [2: look out once again, now], here she comes
Wearin' her wig hat and shades to match
She's got high-heel shoes and an alligator hat
Wearin' her pearls and her diamond rings
She's got bracelets on her fingers, now, and everything
She's the devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Wearin' her perfume, Chanel No. 5
Got to be the finest girl alive
She walks real cool, catches everybody's eye
She's got such good lovin' that they can't say goodbye
Not too skinny, she's not too fat
She's a real humdinger and I like it like that
She's the devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on

("Good Golly Miss Molly" interlude:)
Good golly, Miss Molly
You sure like to ball
Good golly, Miss Molly
You sure like to ball
While you're rockin' and rollin'
Can't you hear your mama call
From the early, early mornin' 'til the early, early nights
See Miss Molly rockin' at the House of Blue Lights
Good golly, Miss Molly
You sure like to ball
While you're rockin' and rollin'
Can't you hear your mama call

Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Lyrics - Devil With a Blue Dress On/Good Golly Miss Molly

Any time at all, any time at all, any time at all , all
you've gotta do is call and I'll be there.
If you need somebody to love, just look into my eyes, I'll
be there to make you feel right.
If you're feeling sorry and sad, I'd really sympathize.
Don't you be sad, just call me tonight.
Any time at all, any time at all, any time at all , all
you've gotta do is call and I'll be there.
If the sun has faded away, I'll try to make it shine,
there's nothing I won't do
If you need a shoulder to cry on I hope it will be mine.
Call me tonight, and I'll come to you.
Any time at all, any time at all, any time at all , all
you've gotta do is call and I'll be there.
Any time at all, all you've gotta do is call and I'll be there.

the Beatles- [edit] Anytime At All [/edit] (thanx pab (or mr picky, lol) i have no idea what i was thinking when typing that)

Oh phoenix, call me Mr. Picky, but that ain't "A hard days night". Looks more like a little choon called "Any time at all" by the same band ...

There she was just a-walkin' down the street, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"
Snappin' her fingers and shufflin' her feet, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"
She looked good (looked good), she looked fine (looked fine)
She looked good, she looked fine and I nearly lost my mind

Before I knew it she was walkin' next to me, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"
Holdin' my hand just as natural as can be, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"
We walked on (walked on) to my door (my door)
We walked on to my door, then we kissed a little more

Whoa-oh, I knew we was falling in love
Yes I did, and so I told her all the things I'd been dreamin' of

Now we're together nearly every single day, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"
A-we're so happy and that's how we're gonna stay, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"
Well I'm hers (I'm hers), she's mine (she's mine)
I'm hers, she's mine, wedding bells are gonna chime

Whoa-oh, I knew we was falling in love
Yes I did, and so I told her all the things I'd been dreamin' of

Now we're together nearly every single day, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"
A-we're so happy and that's how we're gonna stay, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"
Well I'm hers (I'm hers), she's mine (she's mine)
I'm hers, she's mine, wedding bells are gonna chime

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh yeah
Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do, we'll sing it
Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do, oh yeah, oh, oh yeah
Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do


Manfred Mann - Do Wah Diddy Diddy

looking at life through the eyes of a tired hub
eating seeds as a pastime activity
the toxicity of our city, of our city
Now, what do you own the world?
how do you own disorder, disorder
Now somewhere between the sacred silence
Sacred silence and sleep
somewhere, between the sacred silence and sleep
disorder, disorder, disorder
More wood for the fires, loud neighbours
flishlight riveries caught in the headlights of a truck
Now, what do you own the world?
how do you own disorder, disorder
Now somewhere between the sacred silence
Sacred silence and sleep
somewhere between the sacred silence and sleep
disorder, disorder,

System of a down - Toxicity

Carjack used 2 fix flat tires (get your ass out of the car now!)
Cadillac used 2 be a benz (hey, get out of the street)
Big joints never gotcha higher
Freebase cost u in the end

I'm just a no-name reporter
I wish i had nothing 2 say
Looking through my new camcorder
Trying 2 find a crime that pays
I get hit by mortars, everywhere i go i'm loitering
Chaos and disorder ruinin' my world 2day

He's gay used 2 mean he's happy
Nowadays happy ain't allowed (alright)
U're played used to mean top 40
(you're listening to wnpg and we will [?] chaos)
Now 40 days of being played ain't proud

I'm just a no-name reporter
I wish i had nothing 2 say
Lookin' through my new camcorder
Trying 2 find a crime that pays
I get hit by mortars, everywhere i go i'm loitering
Chaos and disorder ruinin' my world 2day
(yeah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Safe sex used 2 mean no babies
When intercourse used to mean fun
If i had 15 ladies
I would only f*** with 1

I get hit by a mortar, everywhere i go i'm loitering
Chaos and disorder [rulin'/ruinin'] my world today

(good guys, look the way [...] coming down here)

Prince- Chaos and Disorder

Trusted you
With my life
Shattered dreams
Broken glass
I hope there is a closure
Down your path
For I have yet to find
The means to forgive
So what if this was all I had?
Is it over?
Washing away
And forget to see
Go choose your way
Leaving everything
You walked away from this
Did it make it easier on you?
So now what?
Life must go on still haunted
Itas so hard to face the day
I hope it is good for you
I tried, oh how I tried, but itas broken
Let me go, I could have died

Kittie- Pink Lemonade

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight

I keep looking for something I can't get
Broken hearts, they're all around me
And I don't see an easier way, to get out of this
Her diary sits by the bedside table
The curtains are closed, the cat's in the cradle
Who would have thought that a boy like me could come to this

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been some kind of kiss
I should have walked away
I should have walked away

Is there any just cause for feeling like this?
On the surface I'm a name on a list
I try to be discreet, but then blow it again
I've lost and found it's my final mistake
She's loving by proxy, no give and all take
'Cause I've been thrilled to fantasy, one too many times

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been some kind of kiss
I should have walked away
I should have walked away

It was a long hot night, she made it easy
She made it feel right
But now it's over, the moment has gone
I followed my hands to my head, I know I was wrong

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been some kind of kiss
I should have walked away
I should have walked away

Cutting Crew- I Just Died In Your Arms Tonight

A glance over your own shoulder
A vow that today will stand out Caged in a routine
Intent unknown
The element Of surprise
Impact undetermined but vast
Mark me...
Brandishing a cold loaded smile Simplicity,
Subtlety, discordance fate and allegory
Everything has it's purpose and you will suffer for what youave done

Kittie-Oracle

sweetie, first off hello, welcome to the forum *waves*, umm second- this game you have to have the last word somwhere in what you post, i ended in "away",so you need to have "away" in your song .

... and phoenix should know, she's a professional.

Example : previous song had 'away' as last word so I post a song including that word (putting it in bold) and the next person gets to use MY last word (which I stick in itallic and/or underline) ... so:

(I'm not sure its the first time I post this one, it probably isn't the last...)

If I had a Rocket launcher - Bruce Cockburn


Here comes the helicopter,
Second time today
Everybody scatters
And hopes it goes away
How many kids they've murdered
Only God can say
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
I'd make somebody pay

I don't believe in guarded borders and I don't believe in hate
I don't believe in generals or their stinking torture states
And when I talk with the survivors of things too sickening to relate
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
I would retaliate

On the Rio Lacuntun one hundred thousand wait
To fall down from starvation or some less humane fate
Cry for Guatemala with a corpse in every gate
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
I would not hesitate

INSTRUMENTAL

I want to raise every voice, at least I've got to try
Every time I think about it water rises to my eyes
Situation desperate echoes of the victim's cry
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
Some son-of-a-bitch would die

( ... got the chords if anyone's interested...)

Make up your mind
Decide to walk with me
Around the lake tonight
Around the lake tonight
By my side
By my side
I'm not gonna lie
I'll not be a gentleman
Behind the boathouse
I'll show you my dark secret

I'm not gonna lie
I want you for mine
My blushing bride
My lover, be my lover, yeah...

Don't be afraid
I didn't mean to scare you
So help me, Jesus

I can promise you
You'll stay as beautiful
With dark hair
And soft skin...forever
Forever

Make up your mind
Make up your mind
And I'll promise you
I will treat you well
My sweet angel
So help me, Jesus

(hey, hey, hey)

Give it up to me
Give it up to me
Do you wanna be
My angel?
So help me!

Be my angel
Be my angel
Do you wanna die?
I promise you
I will treat you well
My sweet angel
So help me, Jesus

Jesus

*bump* (can we go twice in a row?)

Yes.

I think we can. (and should)

Actually, no you cannot reply to your own song, I did it once though, cause I didn't feel like looking for the rules.

Voice of Judas
Every time I look at you
I don't understand
Why you let the things you did
Get so out of hand
You'd have managed better
If you'd had it planned
Now why'd you choose such a backward time
And such a strange land?

If you'd come today
You could have reached the whole nation
Israel in 4 BC had no mass communication
Don't you get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong, now
Don't you get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong, now
Don't you get me wrong

Only want to know
Only want to know
Only want to know, now
Only want to know
Only want to know
Only want to know
Only want to know, now
Only want to know

About your friends at the top
Now who d'you think besides yourself
Was the pick of the crop?
Buddah was he where it's at?

Could Muhammmed move a mountain
Or was that just PR?
Did you mean to die like that?
Was that a mistake or
Did you know your messy death
Would be a record breaker?

Superstar from Jesus Christ Super Star

it was a monday, when my lover told me,
"never pay the reaper with love only."
what could i say to you, except, "i love you."
and "i'd give my life for yours."

i know we are: we are the lucky ones.
i know we are: we are the lucky ones.
i know we are: we are the lucky ones, dear.

the first time we made love, i: i wasn't sober.
(and you told me you loved me over and over!)
how could i ever love another, when i miss you every day:

remember the time we made love in the roses?
(and you took my picture in all sorts of poses!)
how could i ever get over you, when i'd give my life for yours.

i know we are... we are the lucky ones.
i know we are... we are the lucky ones.
i know we are... we are the lucky ones.
i know we are: we are the lucky ones, dear.

my dear, It's time to say i thank god for you.
i thank god for you in each and every single way.
and, i know... i know.. i know.. i know...

it's time to let you know. time to let you know.
time to let you know. time to sit here and say:

i know we are... we are the lucky ones.
i know we are... we are the lucky ones.
i know we are... we are the lucky ones.
i know we are: we are the lucky ones, dear.
we are the lucky ones, dear...
