What lyrics are you listening to now? (pt2)

[tufty79]

scott walker: if you weren't a mentalist that uses meat for percussion, and i had a time machine to when you were young, i'd 'ave ya.

Now and then
I see you passing by
And for a while
I don't begin to cry

But just when I think I'm all cried out

Another tear falls
Another tear falls
And then I know
You are still here in my heart
You are still here in my broken heart

Everytime I go with someone new
I tell myself I've gotten over you

But just when I think I'm all cried out

Another tear falls
Another tear falls
And then I know
You are still here in my heart

You are still
Here in my
Broken
Heart

 

[tufty79]

I want her
And I need her
And someday, someway
Woah, I'm gonna need her

She'll be kind of shy
And real good-looking too
And I'll be certain she's the one
By the things she likes to do

Like walking in the rain (like walking in the rain)
And wishing on the stars up above
And being so in love

When she's near me
I'll kiss her
And when she leaves me
Woah, I'm gonna miss her

But sometimes we'll find
That I won't really care
'Cause I know it's gonna be alright
'Cause we've got so much, so much we share

Like walking in the rain (like walking in the rain)
And wishing on the stars up above
And being so in love

(Happy) She'll never do
(Honey) No, it isn't her, too
They would never
No they never
Ever know

Walking in the rain (like walking in the rain)
And wishing on the stars up above
And being so in love

Woah, woah
I really need her
Woah
Someday I'll find her
Woah...

Nuit Magique :
O.K. ...
il n'y avait rien à faire
O.K. ...
Dans cette ville étrangère
O.K. ...
tu étais solitaire
O.K. ...
j'avais l'cœur à l'envers
O.K. ...
tout ça n'était qu'un jeu
O.K. ...
on jouait avec le feu
O.K. ...
on s'est pris au sérieux
O.K. ...
le rire au fond des yeux

{Refrain:}
Nuit magique
Une histoire d'humour qui tourne à l'amour
Quand vient le jour
Nuit magique
On perd la mémoire au fond d'un regard
Histoire d'un soir
Nuit magique
Si loin de tout sans garde-fou
Autour de nous
Nuit magique
Nuit de hasard on se sépare
Sans trop y croire

O.K. ...
c'est une histoire de peau
O.K. ...
on repart à zéro
O.K. ...
on oublie aussitôt
O.K. ...
qu'on s'est tourné le dos

 

[Roadkill]

I'm getting near my destination
A slow train crawl
Like a fool I nearly miss the station
It's grown so small
Not betting on an easy landing
Out of the blue
These shuttered houses and a clock still standing at 1962

Waiting for the ferry, tickets in their hand
Good people that were never out of sight of land
Waiting for the ferry, tickets in their hand
Good people that you knew would never understand

And we're all on board
It's not very far to ride
Your river is not like Jordan
We'll meet on the other side

A stony church where lovers lingered
In years gone by
The hand of God still points a finger
Across the sky
A stony road to no salvation
Who sheds a tear?
I think that both of us were looking for a short cut out of here

Waiting for the ferry, tickets in our hand
Good people that were never out of sight of land
Waiting for the ferry, tickets in our hand
Good people that you knew would never understand

Could've brought you whisky, could've brought you wine
The only thing I can't bring is time, time, time

And we're all on board
It's not very far to ride
Your river is not like Jordan
We'll meet on the other side

 

[tufty79]

I’m just a poor wayfaring stranger
Traveling thru this world below
There’s no sickness, no toil, no danger
In that bright land to which I go

I’m going there to see my Father
And all my loved ones who've gone old
I’m just going over Jordan
I’m just going over home

I know dark clouds will gather ‘round me,
I know my way is hard and steep
But beauteous fields arise before me
Where God’s redeemed their vigils keep

I’m going there to see my Mother
She said she’d meet me when I come
So I'm just going over Jordan
I'm just going over home
I'm just going over Jordan
I'm just going over home

 

[tufty79]

We wanted to find love
We wanted success
Until nothing was enough
Until my middle name was excess

Somehow I lost touch
When you went out of sight
When you got lost into the city
Got lost into the night

I was in need of help
Heading to blackout
Till someone told me "run on in honey
Before somebody blows your goddamn brains out"

You shoplifted as a child
I had a model's smile
You carried all my hopes
Until something broke inside
But now

We float
Take life as it comes
We float
Take life as it comes

So will we die of shock?
Die without a trial?
Die on Good Friday?
While holding each other tight

This is kind of about you
This is kind of about me
We just kinda lost our way
We were looking to be free
But one day

We'll float
Take life as it comes
We'll float
Take life as it comes

But one day
We'll float
Take life as it comes

 

[tufty79]

i stumble in and in you fit me with those angel wings
send me gold set me high set it up i'm in the sky
'til the storm is gone
and the temperature's high
and delight is dining
at my table


'til i think ha ha ha how lucky we are
angel at my table
god in my car
get it to sea
take a ship
i'd christen her 'victory' and she'd make it

victory
c'mon boys let's push it hard
bump down push your motor car
c'mon boys you've done us proud
you can sweat, dig, i'll mop it right off your brow

victory
'til the storm is gone
and the temperature's high
and delight is dining
at my table


***


We are waiting
For the summer
The sun will bring back
Treasures for us

Come on my friend
Drink to good times
Golden wishes
To your health and mine

You come through
For me
You come true
For me
You be well
For me
You come through
For me

I'll be lifted
On this our holiday
I'll take you my friend
I'll take you with me

You come through
For me
You come true
For me
You be well
For me
You come through
For me

[dodgepot]

Well, I’ve got a woman
Way cross town
She’s good to me oh, yeah
Say. I’ve got a woman
Way cross town
She’s good to me oh, yeah

She’s here in the morning,
Loving me
Yeah, she’s a kind of friend to me

She says she love me early in the morning
Just for me
Oh, yeah you know she loves me
Oh, naturally

She’s there to love me both day and night
No groans or fusses, treats me right
Never running in the street
Loving me alone
She knows a woman’s place is around home at night

Well, she’s my baby
And I’m her loving man

(as sung by Elvis - love this version of it)

 

[Callie]

Whenever I'm with him something inside starts to burn me and I'm filled with desire
Could it be a devil in me or is this the way love is supposed to be?!
Its like a heatwave!




friday night kareoke ((((neighbours)))) good job I can't have any wine tonight

 

[sojourner]

ne me quitte pas

oh god

this makes me fucking crumple

 

[pengaleng]

There is no Gucci I can buy
There is no Louis Vuitton to put on
There is no YSL that they could sell
To get my heart out of this hell
And my mind out of this jail...

 

[rollinder]

And you,
Were right to bide your time and not buy into my misery
Well the good things are never free
Do the colours of the rainbow look the same to everyone?
And I,
Was rushing round in circles for a reason to believe
Wipe the slime from off your sleeve
You could follow me for weeks
And I'm not going anywhere
Sometimes it's hard to love someone
Till the day that they are gone

And I
Just had a dream the other night
I was married to the Queen
And Madonna lived next door
I think she took a shine to me
And the kids were all grown up
But I had to turn her down
'Cos I was still in love with you

I'm turning Madonna down
I'm calling it my best move
I'll get her tickets to what she needs

I remember doing nothing on the night Sinatra died
And the night Jeff Buckley died
And the night Kurt Cobain died
And the night John Lennon died
I remember I stayed up to watch the news with everyone
And that was a lot of nights
And that was a lot of lives
Who lost the tickets to what they need

And I
Was busy finding answers while you just got on with real life
Always hoped you'd be my wife
But I never found the time
For the question to arrive
I just disguised it in a song

And songs are never quite the answer
Just a soundtrack to a life
That is over all too soon
Helps to turn the days to night
While I was wrong and you were right

And this was a lesson learned
I'm happy to be your fool
And get you tickets to what you need

I'm turning the lights down low
I'm ready to make my move
I'll get you tickets to what you need:

 

[rollinder]

Yeah I know who you remind me of
A girl I think I used to know
Yeah I'd see her when the days got colder
On those days when it felt like snow

You know I even think that she stared like you
She used to just stand there and stare
And roll her eyes right up to heaven
And make like I just wasn't there

And she used to fall down a lot
That girl was always falling
Again and again
And I used to sometimes try to catch her
But never even caught her name

And sometimes we would spend the night
Just rolling about on the floor
And I remember even though it felt soft at the time
I always used to wake up sore...

You know I even think that she smiled like you
She used to just stand there and smile
And her eyes would go all sort of far away
And stay like that for quite a while

And I remember she used to fall down a lot
That girl was always falling
Again and again
And I used to sometimes try to catch her
But never even caught her name

Yeah I sometimes even tried to catch her
But never even caught her name

 

[Upchuck]

I hear the ticking of the clock
I'm lying here, the room's pitch dark
I wonder where you are tonight
No answer on the telephone
And the night goes by so very slow
Oh I hope that it won't end though
Alone

Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone

You don't know how long I have wanted
to touch your lips and hold you tight
You don't know how long I have waited
and I was going to tell you tonight
But the secret is still my own
and my love for you is still unknown
Alone

Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
Alone
Alone

 

[Upchuck]

And I would do anything for love, I'd run right into hell and back
I would do anything for love, I'll never lie to you and that's a fact
But I'll never forget the way you feel right now, oh no, no way
And I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, I won't do that
Anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, oh I won't do that

Some days it don't come easy, and some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all, and these are the days that never end
Some nights you're breathing fire, and some nights you're carved in ice
Some nights you're like nothing I've ever seen before or will again

Maybe I'm crazy, but it's crazy and it's true
I know you can save me, no one else can save me now but you

As long as the planets are turning, as long as the stars are burning
As long as your dreams are coming true, you better believe it

That I would do anything for love, and I'll be there til the final act
I would do anything for love, and I'll take a vow and seal a pact

But I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way tonight
And I would do anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
Oh I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no I won't do that

I would do anything for love, anything you've been dreaming of
But I just won't do that

Some days I pray for silence, and somedays I pray for soul
Some days I just pray to the God of Sex and Drums and Rock 'N Roll
Some nights I lose the feeling, and some nights I lose control
Some nights I just lose it all when I watch you dance and the thunder rolls

Maybe I'm lonely and that's all I'm qualified to be
There's just one and only, the one and only promise I can keep

As long as the wheels are turning, as long as the fires are burning
As long as your prayers are coming true, you better believe it

That I would do anything for love, and you know it's true and that's a fact
I would do anything for love, and there'll never be no turning back

But I'll never do it better than I do it with you, so long, so long
And I would do anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no no no I won't do that

I would do anything for love, anything you've been dreaming of
But I just won't do that

But I'll never stop dreaming of you every night of my life, no way

And I would do anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no I won't do that

Will you raise me up, will you help me down?
Will you get me right out of this Godforsaken town?
Will you make it all a little less cold?

I can do that! I can do that!

Will you hold me sacred? Will you hold me tight?
Can you colorize my life, I'm so sick of black and white?
Can you make it all a little less old?

I can do that! Oh oh, now I can do that!

Will you make me some magic, with your own two hands?
Can you build an emerald city with these grains of sand?
Can you give me something I can take home?

I can do that! Oh oh now, I can do that!

Will you cater to every fantasy I got?
Will ya hose me down with holy water, if I get too hot?
Will you take me places I've never known?

I can do that! Oh oh now, I can do that!

After a while you'll forget everything
It was a brief interlude and a midsummer night's fling
And you'll see that it's time to move on

I won't do that! No I won't do that!

I know the territory, I've been around
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
And sooner or later, you'll be screwing around

I won't do that! No I won't do that!

Anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no I won't do that

 

[Upchuck]

Morning alone
When you come home
I breath a little faster
Every time were together
Itd never be the same
If youre not here
How can you stay away, away so long.

Why cant we stay together
Give me a reason
Give me a reason.

I, I dont wanna say it
I dont wanna find another way
Make it trough the day without you
I, I cant resist
Try to find exactly what I missed
Its just another day without you
Its just another day oh

Making the time
Find the right lines
To make you stay forever
What do I have to tell you

Im just trying to hold on to something
(trying to hold on to something good)
Oh give us a chance to make it.
To make it no no no

Dont wanna hold on to never
Im not that strong
Im not that strong.

I, I dont wanna say it
I dont wanna find another way
Make it trough the day without you
I, I cant resist
Trying to find exactly what I missed
Its just another day without you.

Why cant you stay forever
Just give me a reason
Give me a reason.

From a town known as wheeling, west virginia
Rode a boy with a six-gun in his hand
And his daring life of crime
Made him a legend in his time
East and west of the rio grande

Well, he started with a bank in colorado
In the pocket of his vest, a colt he hid
And his age and his size
Took the teller by surprise
And the word spread of billy the kid

Well, he never traveled heavy
Yes, he always rode alone
And he soon put many older guns to shame
And he never had a sweetheart
And he never had a home
But the cowboy and the rancher knew his name

Well, he robbed his way from utah to oklahoma
And the law just could not seem to track him down
And it served his legend well
For the folks, theyd love to tell
bout when billy the kid came to town

Well, one cold day a posse captured billy
And the judge said, string im up for what he did!
And the cowboys and their kin
Like the sea came pourin in
To watch the hangin of billy the kid

Well, he never traveled heavy
Yes, he always rode alone
And he soon put many older guns to shame
And he never had a sweetheart
But he finally found a home
Underneath the boothill grave that bears his name

From a town known as oyster bay, long island
Rode a boy with a six-pack in his hand
And his daring life of crime
Made him a legend in his time
East and west of the rio grande

 

[QueenOfGoths]

In the port of Amsterdam
There's a sailor who sings
Of the dreams that he brings
From the wide open sea
In the port of Amsterdam
There's a sailor who sleeps
While the riverbank weeps
With the old willow tree
In the port of Amsterdam
There's a sailor who dies
Full of beer, full of cries
In a drunken down fight
And in the port of Amsterdam
There's a sailor who's born
On a muggy hot morn
By the dawn's early light
In the port of Amsterdam
Where the sailors all meet
There's a sailor who eats
Only fishheads and tails
He will show you his teeth
That have rotted too soon
That can swallow the moon
That can haul up the sails
And he yells to the cook
With his arms open wide
Bring me more fish
Put it down by my side
Then he wants so to belch
But he's too full to try
So he gets up and laughs
And he zips up his fly
In the port of Amsterdam
You can see sailors dance
Paunches bursting their pants
Grinding women to paunch
They've forgotten the tune
That their whiskey voice croaks
Splitting the night with the
Roar of their jokes
And they turn and they dance
And they laugh and they lust
Till the rancid sound of
The accordion bursts
Then out to the night
With their pride in their pants
With the slut that they tow
Underneath the street lamps
In the port of Amsterdam
There's a sailor who drinks
And he drinks and he drinks
And he drinks once again
He drinks to the health
Of the whores of Amsterdam
Who have promised their love
To a thousand other men
They've bargained their bodies
And their virtue long gone
For a few dirty coins
And when he can't go on
He plants his nose in the sky
And he wipes it up above
And he pisses like I cry
For an unfaithful love
In the port of Amsterdam
In the port of Amsterdam

 

[rollinder]

I’m in to myself
On uncertain terms
I put gin in my milk
To kill all the germs
As I pray for the day
That life will return
And I pray for myself
But I never learn
No I never learn
See I really like you
But I’m nothing like you
I try oh so hard
But don’t get so far
You get my respect
But we don’t connect
Were in it together
So I’ll love you forever
I love you forever
And so it rains on
No one gives a fuck about the values I would die for
Not the faceless civil servants
The rudimentary crack whore
No one gives two fucks about the values I would kill for
Give them something to die for
Give me something to die for
You won’t really see me
I live in old movies
Cloaked tightly in sin
So they wont come in

Its like spying on cities
Through cracks in the floor
Thought I knew what the blag was
But now I’m not sure
What do I know anymore?

And no one gives a fuck
About the values I would die for
Not the baseist civil servant
The rudimentary crack whore
And no one gives two fucks
About the values I could kill for
Give them something to die for
Give me something to die for

Still I’m into myself
On uncertain terms.
I put gin in my milk
It kills all the germs
As I pray for the day
That life will return
And I pray for myself
But I never learn
No I’ll never learn

No one gives a fuck
About the values I would die for
Not the faceless civil servant
A rudimentary crack whore
No one gives two fucks
About the values I would kill for
Give me something to die for
Give me something to die for

No one’s too perturbed
About the things that I would cry for
I’ve been trying all my life
Until there’s nothing left to try for
No one’s too perturbed
About the things that I would live for
Give me something to try for
Give me something to try for

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

I’m waitin’ on the sun to set cause yesterday aint over yet
I started smoking cigarettes there’s nothing else to do I guess
Dusty roads aint made for walking, spinning tires aint made for stoppin’
I’m giving up on love cause love’s given up on me

I gave it everything I had and everything I got was bad
Life aint hard but it’s too long to live it like some country song
Trade the truth in for a lie, cheating really aint a crime
I’m giving up on love cause love’s given up on me

Forget you high society, I’m soakin’ it in Kerosene
Light ‘em up and watch them burn, teach them what they need to learn HA!
Dirty hands aint made for shakin’, aint a rule that aint worth breakin’
Well I’m giving up on love cause love’s given up on me

Now I don’t hate the one who left You cant hate someone whos dead
He’s out there holding on to someone, I’m holding up my smoking gun
I’ll find somewhere to lay my blame the day she changes her last name
Well I’m giving up on love cause love’s given up on me
Well I’m giving up on love HEY love’s given up on me

 

[pengaleng]

I wake up
With my eyes shut tight
Hoping tomorrow will never come
For you and I

Oh the phantoms
Crawl out of the night
Hoping the daylight will never come
For you and I

Keep your heart open and your eyes shut tight
What will be, will be
Keep your heart open and your eyes shut tight
But don't forget about me

Oh the phantoms
Crawl out of the night
Hoping tomorrow will never come
For you and I

Keep your heart open and your eyes shut tight
What will be, will be
Keep your heart open and your eyes shut tight
But don't forget about me

I wake up
With my eyes shut tight
Hoping tomorrow will never come
For you and I
Hoping tomorrow will never come
For you and I
For you and I
For you and I
For you and I

 

[Kid_Eternity]

When you're talkin' to yourself
And nobody's home
You can fool yourself
You came in this world alone
(Alone)

So nobody ever told you baby
How it was gonna be
So what'll happen to you baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see
ONE, TWO

Old at heart but I'm only 28
And I'm much too young
To let love break my heart
Young at heart but it's getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart

I don't know how you're s'posed
To find me lately
An what more could you ask from me
How could you say that I never needed you
When you took everything
Said you took everything from me

Young at heart and it gets so hard to wait
When no one I know can seem to help me now
Old at heart but I mustn't hesitate
If I'm to find my own way out

Still talkin' to myself
And nobody's home
(Alone)

So nobody ever told us baby
How it was gonna be
So what'll happen to us baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see

When I find out all the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way
Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe I'll get it right next time
And now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds
You're back down on the ground
And you don't talk so loud
And you don't walk so proud
Any more, and what for

Well I jumped into the river
Too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own, and drifting all alone
If it doesn't show give it time
To read between the lines
'Cause I see the storm is getting closer
And the waves, they get so high
Seems everything we've ever known's here
Why must it drift away and die

I'll never find anyone to replace you
Guess I'll have to make it through, this time - Oh this time
Without you

I knew the storm was getting closer
And all my friends said I was high
But everything we've ever known's here
I never wanted it to die

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Now, when I was just a little boy,
Standin' to my Daddy's knee,
My poppa said, "Son, don't let the man get you
Do what he done to me."
'Cause he'll get you,
'Cause he'll get you now, now.

And I can remember the fourth of July,
Runnin' through the backwood, bare.
And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin',
Chasin' down a hoodoo there.
Chasin' down a hoodoo there.

CHORUS:
Born On The Bayou;
Born On The Bayou;
Born On The Bayou.

Wish I was back on the Bayou.
Rollin' with some Cajun Queen.
Wishin' I were a fast freight train,
Just a chooglin' on down to New Orleans.

CHORUS

Do it, do it, do it, do it. Oh, Lord.
Oh get back boy.

I can remember the fourth of July,
Runnin' through the backwood bare.
And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin',
Chasin' down a hoodoo there.
Chasin' down a hoodoo there.

CHORUS

All right! Do, do, do, do.
Mmmmmmm, oh.

 

[pengaleng]

In the night I hear 'em talk, the coldest story ever told
Somewhere far along this road he lost his soul
To a woman so heartless
How could you be so heartless?
How could you be so heartless?

How could you be so cold?
As the winter wind when it breeze yo
Just remember that you talkin' to me though
You need to watch the way you talkin' to me though

I mean after all the things that we've been through
I mean after all the things we got into
Hey yo, I know of some things that you ain't told me
Hey yo, I did some things but that's the old me

And now you wanna get me back and you gon' show me
So you walk around like you don't know me
You got a new friend, well I got homies
But in the end it's still so lonely

In the night I hear 'em talk, the coldest story ever told
Somewhere far along this road he lost his soul
To a woman so heartless
How could you be so heartless?
How could you be so heartless?

How could be so Dr. Evil?
You're bringin' out a side of me that I don't know
I decided we wasn't goin' speak so
Why we up 3 a.m. on the phone?

Why does she be so mad at me for?
Homie, I don't know, she's hot and cold
I won't stop, won't mess my groove up
'Cause I already know how this thing go

You run and tell your friends that you're leavin' me
They say that they don't see what you see in me
You wait a couple months then you gon' see
You'll never find nobody better than me

In the night I hear 'em talk, the coldest story ever told
Somewhere far along this road he lost his soul
To a woman so heartless
How could you be so heartless?
How could you be so heartless?

Talkin', talkin', talkin' talk
Baby let's just knock it off
They don't know what we been through
They don't know 'bout me and you

So I got somethin' new to see
And you just gon' keep hatin' me
And we just gon' be enemies

I know you can't believe
I could just leave it wrong
And you can't make it right
I'm gon' take off tonight
Into the night

In the night I hear 'em talk, the coldest story ever told
Somewhere far along this road he lost his soul
To a woman so heartless
How could you be so heartless?
How could you be so heartless?

Well, take me back down where cool water flows, yeah.
Let me remember things I love,
Stoppin at the log where catfish bite,
Walkin along the river road at night,
Barefoot girls dancin in the moonlight.

I can hear the bullfrog callin me.
Wonder if my ropes still hangin to the tree.
Love to kick my feet way down the shallow water.
Shoefly, dragonfly, get back tyour mother.
Pick up a flat rock, skip it across green river.
Welllllll!

Up at codys camp I spent my days, oh,
With flat car riders and cross-tie walkers
. old cody, junior took me over,
Said, youre gonna find the world is smouldrin.
And if you get lost come on home to green river.

Welllllll!
Come on home.

The room is cold and has been like this for several months.
If I close my eyes I can visualise everything in it right down,
right down to the broken handle on the third drawer down the dressing table.
And the world outside this room has also assumed a familiar shape:-
the same events shuffled in a slightly different order each day.
Just like a modern shopping centre.

And it's so cold - yeah it's so cold.
What...is...this... feeling called love?
Why me?
Why you?
Why here?*
Why now?
It doesn't make no sense. No.
It's not convenient. No.
It doesn't fit my plans. No.
It's something I don't understand. Oh.
(F.E.E.L.I.N.G.C.A double L.E.D.L.O.V.E.
What is this thing that is happening to me?)

And as I stand and cross the room*
I feel as if my whole life has been leading to this one moment.
And as I touch your shoulder tonight*
this room has become the centre of the entire universe.
So what do I do?
I've got a slightly sick feeling in my stomach
like I'm standing on the top of a very high building.
Oh yeah, all the stuff they tell you about in the movies,
but this isn't chocolate boxes and roses - it's dirtier than that,
like some small animal that only comes out at night.
And I see flashes of the shape of your breasts and the curve of your belly
and they make me have to sit down and catch my breath.

And it's so cold - yeah it's so cold. Oh.
What...is...this... feeling called love?
Why me?
Why you?
Why here?
And why now?
Oh it doesn't make no sense. No.
It's not convenient. No.
It doesn't fit my plans but I got that taste in my mouth again.
Oh, F.E.E.L.I.N.G.C.A. double L.E.D.L.O.V.E.
What is this thing that is happening to me?
F.E.E.L.I.N.G.C.A. double L.E.D.L.O.V.E.
What is this thing that is happening to me?
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

let me know, do I still got time to grow?
things aint always set in stone
that being known, let me know
let me

seems like streetlights glowing
happened to be just like moments
passing, in front of me so
I hopped in, the cab and
I paid my fare, see
I know my, destination
but im just not there
all the streetlights glowing
happened to be just like moments
passing, in front of me so
I hopped in, the cab and
I paid my fare, see
I know my, destination
but im just not there in the streets
in the streets
I'm just not there in the streets
I'm just not there
life's just not fair

[Johnny Canuck3]

Traffic in the city turns my head around.
No, no, no, no, no.
Backed up on the freeway, backed up in the church,
Ev'rywhere you look there's a frown, frown.

CHORUS:
Com, commotion,
Git, git, git, gone.
Com, commotion,
Git, git, git, gone.

People keep atalkin', they don't say a word.
Jaw, jaw, jaw, jaw, jaw.
Talk up in the White House, talk up to your door,
So much goin' on I just can't hear.

CHORUS

Hurryin' to get there so you save some time.
Run, run, run, run, run.
Rushin' to the treadmill, rushin' to get home,
Worry 'bout the time you save, save.

 

[pengaleng]

the record starts
the beat is hard
I can feel you too
I need someone to know that I'm gone
I need someone to lose control

everybody (everybody) don't wait
everybody, don't wait

ohhhh

and then we'll float through the sky
don't hesitate, no why
tonight we'll dance until we die
(the night is long)
no worries and no wrong
(the night is long)

free, everybody, just the dance,
the night is long
and I, don't, everybody, just the dance
and then we're through with the night (is long)
just the dance
everybody, don't wait
the night is long
don't wait
the night is long
ohhh

and then we'll float through the sky
don't hesitate, no why
tonight we'll dance until we die
no worries and no wrong
(the night is long)
and then we'll float through the sky
(ohhh) don't hesitate, no why
tonight we'll dance until we die
the night is long
no worries and no wrong
the night is long

the record starts
the beat is hard
I can feel you too
I need someone to know that I'm gone
I need someone to lose control

ohhhh

and then we'll float through the sky
don't hesitate, no why
tonight we'll dance until we die
no worries and no wrong
(the night is long)
and then we'll float through the sky
don't hesitate, no why
tonight we'll dance until we die
(the night is long)
no worries and no wrong
(the night is long)

Oh, the ragman draws circles
Up and down the block.
I'd ask him what the matter was
But I know that he don't talk.
And the ladies treat me kindly
And furnish me with tape,
But deep inside my heart
I know I can't escape.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.

Well, Shakespeare, he's in the alley
With his pointed shoes and his bells,
Speaking to some French girl,
Who says she knows me well.
And I would send a message
To find out if she's talked,
But the post office has been stolen
And the mailbox is locked.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.

Mona tried to tell me
To stay away from the train line.
She said that all the railroad men
Just drink up your blood like wine.
An' I said, "Oh, I didn't know that,
But then again, there's only one I've met
An' he just smoked my eyelids
An' punched my cigarette."
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.

Grandpa died last week
And now he's buried in the rocks,
But everybody still talks about
How badly they were shocked.
But me, I expected it to happen,
I knew he'd lost control
When he built a fire on Main Street
And shot it full of holes.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.

Now the senator came down here
Showing ev'ryone his gun,
Handing out free tickets
To the wedding of his son.
An' me, I nearly got busted
An' wouldn't it be my luck
To get caught without a ticket
And be discovered beneath a truck.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.

Now the preacher looked so baffled
When I asked him why he dressed
With twenty pounds of headlines
Stapled to his chest.
But he cursed me when I proved it to him,
Then I whispered, "Not even you can hide.
You see, you're just like me,
I hope you're satisfied."
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.

Now the rainman gave me two cures,
Then he said, "Jump right in."
The one was Texas medicine,
The other was just railroad gin.
An' like a fool I mixed them
An' it strangled up my mind,
An' now people just get uglier
An' I have no sense of time.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.

When Ruthie says come see her
In her honky-tonk lagoon,
Where I can watch her waltz for free
'Neath her Panamanian moon.
An' I say, "Aw come on now,
You must know about my debutante."
An' she says, "Your debutante just knows what you need
But I know what you want."
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.

Now the bricks lay on Grand Street
Where the neon madmen climb.
They all fall there so perfectly,
It all seems so well timed.
An' here I sit so patiently
Waiting to find out what price
You have to pay to get out of
Going through all these things twice.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.

(fucking hilarious - I put "stuck inside of mobile" into scour to find the lyrics, and one of the google ads that came up is for Pearl Tampax! ouch )
