Lost my friend to knitting, lost my nerve for crime.
Lost my sense of direction, wasted so much time.
I though I had a duty, to put myself about.
Saw my life in colour, when the reality is black and white.

Sung my song of sorrow, squeezed my memory dry.
Time to ring the changes, my but don't time fl-y!

Do it or don't do it do it right, or give your life to others.
Do it or don't do it do it right, forget the colours.

So take yourself in hand, bleach the colours from your mind.
Remember what I told you and live in black and white.
Don't try to live in colour, save it for your dreams.
These four walls that surround me, surround you to - oh yes they do, yes they do!

Life within, life within four walls.
Life within, life within four walls.

These four walls surround me, four walls close me in.
These four walls surround me, four walls close me i-i-i-in.
These four walls surround me, four walls close me in.
These four walls surround me, four walls close me in

Say it as I dance
Say will you dance
Falling wonderful love
She says that's enough
The plane is a bird
The final wish absurd
To fly on the wings I feel
Can make her so real
Then I'll manage it
One thing of us is done
Burn little fire above it
Underneath it all
There's a modern world
That's all (old?)
Unstoppable

The face talks down to the river
The special world of you
The mind all returns to the river
The same thing said to you

This gun is offed
His thought has gone
Good morning touch her
How time's flow
And all signs of madness
Struck by sadness
Burn in a fire above my
Underneath it all
She complicates the river in us
Says to me
It's time for all things
Just fly

(Is a mirror)

I've end in you
I've envied you
Everywhere I go
Doesn't matter all
Pray your sun sets
And your sun's rays
Say not a look
And bade, wait
The sun, our world
Say was it all
Say was it all
Guess I've needed you, you
 
eeeeeeeeee
heard this for the first time just now and had a little cry :oops:

Inside i knew the passing of time would lead to you
Impossible, yet tangible, an ancient dream comes true
Happy since confessing your affect on me
You are my song, you’re my appetite
You lift me higher than any satellite
And i’m just still astounded
I didn’t know there was perfection
I tried to lose the quest for home
Then i found you
Anyhow, i broke the spell
Was swept away on the swell
Sail for home
Inside i knew
Home is you
 
insomnia with alpha ... :s

Oh said you’d rule
Does he say when he’s got to be something in your flame
Does love go with you and your flying scene
Oh don’t go will you
I suddenly fly
Under the room where the love goes by

Said you’d rule
Do eyes go black and suit you
Do others run when you become
A portable living room
Oh don’t go will you
I suddenly fly
Under the room where the love goes by

Heal on high,
My sigh,
Heal on high

You flee your home you’re one hundred and three
Bless this world bless man for me
You’ve finally gone touched your home
When your love is mine

When your love is mine
On summers sometimes
You just hate your hell
But i don’t know what’s worth your love
Only on times
Take me to the movies oh nothing groovy on
There is a room
 
Given time, i’ll be fine
Hold your breath
No, i’ll hold mine
Stay around, stay with me
Soon you’ll see, i’ll be fine
Just a day’s too soon to say
I’ll come round when least expected
Find my way
Hold my hand
Understand
I’ll be fine, given time
Hard to say, to give away
Pour your heart into my head again today
Help me down, help me out
Given time, i’ll be fine
 
The minstrel boy to the war has gone,
In the ranks of death you'll find him;
His father's sword he hath girded on,
And his wild harp slung behind him;

"Land of Song!" cried the warrior bard,
(Should) "Tho' all the world betrays thee,
One sword, at least, thy rights shall guard,
One faithful harp shall praise thee!"

The Minstrel fell! But the foeman's chain
Could not bring that proud soul under;
The harp he lov'd ne'er spoke again,
For he tore its chords asunder;

And said "No chains shall sully thee,
Thou soul of love and brav'ry!
Thy songs were made for the pure and free
They shall never sound in slavery!

followed by

I look up to the little bird
That glides across the sky
He sings the clearest melody
It makes me want to cry
It makes me want to sit right down
And cry cry cry

I walk along the city streets
So dark with rage and fear
And i...
I wish that I could be that bird
And fly away from here
I wish I had the wings to fly away from here

But my my I feel so low
My my where do I go?
My my what do I know?
My my we reap what we sow
They always said that you knew best
But this little birds fallen out of that nest now
Ive got a feeling that it might have been blessed
So Ive just got to put these wings to test

For I am just a troubled soul
Whos weighted...
Weighted to the ground
Give me the strength to carry on
Till I can lay this burden down
Give me the strength to lay this burden down
Down down yea
Give me the strength to lay it down

But my my I feel so low
My my where do I go?
My my what do I know?
My my we reap what we sow
They always said that you knew best
But this little birds fallen out of that nest now
Ive got a feeling that it might have been blessed
So Ive just got to put these wings to test
 
I knew from the start
That I loved U with all my heart
But U were untrue
U had another lover and she looked just like U

Bambi, can't U understand?
Bambi, it's better with a man

It's so hard 2 believe
Maybe it's because U're so young
Or maybe I'm just 2 naive
Who's 2 say, maybe U're really having fun

Bambi, can't U understand?
Bambi, it's better with a man ... ow!

All your lovers, they look just like U
But they can only do the things that U do
Come on baby and take me by the hand
I'm gonna show U what it's like 2 be loved by a man

Bambi, I know what U need
Bambi, maybe U need 2 bleed

Yeah!

Duff McKagan version :cool:
 
I went to the museum and stood on a chair
Some girl drew a crowd by what she didn't wear
She made everybody look up there
It was a naked girl fallin' down the stairs!

Naked girl fallin' down the stairs
Naked girl fallin' down the stairs
All the way down she was up in the air
Naked girl fallin' down the stairs

It was a naked girl right in my face
High class culture all over the place
My watch stopped tickin'...shoes came unlaced
When I watched her trippin' down a staircase
It looked like a mistake at a steeplechase
A busted flywheel at stock car race
I fell in love at a terrible pace
When someone gave her a shove down a staircase.
 
"Ceremony" by New Order

This is why events unnerve me,
They find it all, a different story,
Notice whom for wheels are turning,
Turn again and turn towards this time,
All she ask's the strength to hold me,
Then again the same old story,
World will travel, oh so quickly,
Travel first and lean towards this time.

Oh, I'll break them down, no mercy shown,
Heaven knows, it's got to be this time,
Watching her, these things she said,
The times she cried,
Too frail to wake this time.

Oh I'll break them down, no mercy shown
Heaven knows, it's got to be this time,
Avenues all lined with trees,
Picture me and then you start watching,
Watching forever, forever,
Watching love grow, forever,
Letting me know, forever.
 
an excellent mix of :

Whoa...there's some things baby I just can't swallow. Mama told me that girls are hollow. Uh-uh...What's inside a girl? Somethin's tellin' me there's a whole nuther world. Ya gotta pointy bra...ten inch waist. Long black stockings all over the place. Boots...buckles...belts outside. Whatcha got in there yer tryin' a-hide? Hmmm? What's inside a girl? Ain't no hotter question in a so-called civilized world. Can't see it by satellite baby that's cheatin'. The President's callin' an emergency meetin'. The King of Siam sent a telegram sayin' "Wop bop a loop a lop a lop boom bam!" Wooee...What's inside a girl? Somethin's tellin' me there's a whole nuther world. Whatcha got...whatcha got...Whatcha got in the pot? Whatcha got...whatcha got...Whatcha got in the pot? In the bottom of your bottomless bodypit. You got somethin' and I gotta get it. Come onnn...What's inside a girl? Like da itty bitty baby takes apart his toys. I'm gonna find what's rilin' up the boys. Sugar and spice is just a bluff. You can tell me baby...what is that stuff?! Come on...What's inside a girl? That wavy gravy got my head in a whirl.

aaaaaand

Here kitty kitty
You better move along
'cause the big cats walk at the break of dawn
Now doggonnit baby
Oohh I said doggone...

Hey can your pussy do the dog?
Can your pussy do the dog?
Can your pussy do the (houndog, bulldog, poodlecut) baby?
Can your pussy do the dog?

This whole mess useless now as a whistle on a plow
If your pussy can't do the dog
I'm the king of the jungle. They call me tiger man
I'm gonna do the bird. If I can, if I can
My bird can do the dog if your pussy can?
Come on and wag that tail
Baby you can't fail
If'n your pussy can't do the dog.

Hey hey hey...Hully hully gully...

No pedigree from France will get you in the dance
Lessin your pussy can do the dog
Come on and wag that tail baby you can't fail
If'n your pussy can do the dog
Cha cha cha!
 
I used to know this woman who had the most beautiful
tattoos on the top sides of both of her hands
she was forty three years old and as far as I know
had never yet been with a man
its not that she wasn't attractive she was beatiful
but its the way that she interacted
she was aggressively passive to the point where she
would of intimidated any mitt that ever tried to catch her
on the right hand she had a tattoo of a nude girl
she claimed it is what God resembled
but on the left she had a mirrored image of the same female
and this one she explained looked like the devil
I remember once watching her touch her own breasts
how the tattoos smiled as they stared down her stomach
as if anticipating would they be allowed to caress
the sweet flower that they both seemed to hunger (sweet flower)
now maybe I was high but it felt so right
heaven and hell both take to this womans womb
it didn't make sense how she could commence
touching herself with me wide awake in the same room
now if I've learned anything in my years (my years)
I learned I no longer believe in surprise (in surprise)
but what happened next damn near stole my tears
the tattoos came alive right in front of my eyes
they both slowly stood up and climbed off her hands
and showed me why she never took some time with a man
they climbed deep inside of this woman's garden
she closed her eyes and she gently bit her bottom lip
I stepped I left and I don't regret leaving
and I'll never forget all the things I saw that evening
a glimpse of religion a piece of coming closer
to understanding more about what intrigues me most
I didn't get turned on I just got turned
I wasn't as aroused as I was concerned
for each one of em I've hurt
and every time I've been burned
I've got a lot to teach but even more to learn
so now I keep my eyes open hoping to take in all I can
about Woman taking in all she can
and for as long as I breath i'll save a seat in my memory
for that woman with the tattooed hands

There's good and evil in each individual fire
identifies needs and feeds our desires
as long as we keep our spirit inspired
she can bite her bottom lip all she wants​
 
My name is Stagger Lee.
And I'm walking through the ice and snow.
And my girl threw me out last week.
And I'm fucking broke.
Nothing but this dollar in my pocket and my Colt .45.
Don't look at me the wrong way... cause I got nothing to lose tonight.
I walk into JD's.
I put a dollar down.
I turn a dollar into a few.
I start drinking and I turn around.
Cause I feel a pair of eyes burning into the back of my neck.
He's whispering to the barkeep.
The goddamn fool won't stop staring at me.
So I shoot up from my seat and press the cold steel to his head and said,
"Don't you know who the fuck I am?"
He said, "Stagger Lee, please don't take my life.
I've got a kid back home and I've got a wife."
He said, "Please, Stagger, please. I'm a friend, not a foe.
But your girl is with Billy at the Flamingo. I just thought you should know."
So I pistol whip him in the teeth and walk outside.
Steal the first fast car I see.
And as my blood starts to boil... I start to take a little ride.
Leave the car running.
Pull down the brim of my Black Stetson Hat.
Look around and I see no witness.
One last drink from my silver flask.
I kick open the door.
I see their bodies intertwined.
I see the fear in their eyes.
I point my Colt .45 and I feel divine.
Stagger Lee... you're a bad, bad man.
Oh Stagger Lee, you're going straight to hell.
Stagger Lee, you're a bad, bad man.
Oh Stagger Lee, you're going strait to hell.
 
you ping me off in musical directions :cool:


It was back in '32 when times were hard
He had a Colt .45 and a deck of cards
Stagger Lee

He wore rat-drawn shoes and an old stetson hat
Had a '28 Ford, had payments on that
Stagger Lee

His woman threw him out in the ice and snow
And told him, "Never ever come back no more"
Stagger Lee

So he walked through the rain and he walked through the mud
Till he came to a place called The Bucket Of Blood
Stagger Lee

He said "Mr Motherfucker, you know who I am"
The barkeeper said, "No, and I don't give a good goddamn"
To Stagger Lee

He said, "Well bartender, it's plain to see
I'm that bad motherfucker called Stagger Lee"
Mr. Stagger Lee

Barkeep said, "Yeah, I've heard your name down the way
And I kick motherfucking asses like you every day"
Mr Stagger Lee

Well those were the last words that the barkeep said
'Cause Stag put four holes in his motherfucking head

Just then in came a broad called Nellie Brown
Was known to make more money than any bitch in town

She struts across the bar, hitching up her skirt
Over to Stagger Lee, she starts to flirt
With Stagger Lee

She saw the barkeep, said, "O God, he can't be dead!"
Stag said, "Well, just count the holes in the motherfucker's head"

She said, "You ain't look like you scored in quite a time.
Why not come to my pad? It won't cost you a dime"
Mr. Stagger Lee

"But there's something I have to say before you begin
You'll have to be gone before my man Billy Dilly comes in,
Mr. Stagger Lee"

"I'll stay here till Billy comes in, till time comes to pass
And furthermore I'll fuck Billy in his motherfucking ass"
Said Stagger Lee

"I'm a bad motherfucker, don't you know
And I'll crawl over fifty good pussies just to get one fat boy's asshole"
Said Stagger Lee

Just then Billy Dilly rolls in and he says, "You must be
That bad motherfucker called Stagger Lee"
Stagger Lee

"Yeah, I'm Stagger Lee and you better get down on your knees
And suck my dick, because If you don't you're gonna be dead"
Said Stagger Lee

Billy dropped down and slobbered on his head
And Stag filled him full of lead
Oh yeah.


(the italicised bit is one of my fave lines, and is stolen from a 40s blues song :cool:)
 
Angel, don't take those sleeping pills, you don't need them
Though it's just time they kill
Angel, give me your sleeping pills, you don't need them
Give me the time they kill

You're a water sign, I'm an air sign
Gone gone to Valium, can you get me some?
You're a water sign, and I'm an air sign
Too Siamese to catch the leaves from those trees

Angel, don't take those sleeping pills, you don't need them
though it's just time they kill

you're a water sign, I"m an air sign
Pumped up with Valium, could you get me some?
You're a water sign, I'm an air sign
With sweet F.A. to do today, with sweet F.A. to do today...

...Angel, don't take those sleeping pills
 
Feel me
I'm frightened
We both know
Someone waiting
Feeling my way
Don't be, enjoy
While we can't be

Feel me
I'm frightened
We both know
Don't be, enjoy
While we can't be
 
punks jump up special disco mix

If i told you things i did before
told you how i used to be
would you go along with someone like me
if you knew my story word for word
had all of my history
would you go along with someone like me

i did before and had my share
it didn't lead nowhere
i would go along with someone like you
it doesn't matter what you did
who you were hanging with
we could stick around and see this night through

and we don't care about the young folks
talkin' 'bout the young style
and we don't care about the old folks
talkin' 'bout the old style too
and we don't care about their own faults
talkin' 'bout our own style
all we care 'bout is talking
talking only me and you

usually when things has gone this far
people tend to disappear
no one will surprise me unless you do

i can tell there's something goin' on
hours seems to disappear
everyone is leaving i'm still with you

it doesn't matter what we do
where we are going too
we can stick around and see this night through

and we don't care about the young folks
talkin' 'bout the young style
and we don't care about the old folks
talkin' 'bout the old style too
and we don't care about their own faults
talkin' 'bout our own style
all we care 'bout is talking
talking only me and you

and we don't care about the young folks
talkin' 'bout the young style
and we don't care about the old folks
talkin' 'bout the old style too
and we don't care about their own faults
talkin' 'bout our own style
all we care 'bout is talking
talking only me and you
talking only me and you

talking only me and you
talking only me and you
 
So I'm back to the velvet underground

Back to the floor
that I love.
To a room with some lace and paper flowers

Back to the gypsy that I was
to the gypsy that I was.
And it all comes down to you
well
you know that it does.
Well
lightning strikes
maybe once
maybe twice -
Ah
and it lights up the night
and you see your gypsy

You see your gypsy.
To the gypsy that remains faces freedom with a little fear.
I have no fear
I have only love.
And if I was a child and the child was enough

Enough for me to love
enough to love.
She is dancing away from me now
she was just a wish

She was just a wish and a memory is all that is left for you now.
You see your gypsy
oh
you see your gypsy.
Lightning strikes
maybe once
maybe twice
And it all comes down to you.
Lightning strikes
maybe once
maybe twice . . .
 
If I could turn the page
In time then I'd rearrange just a day or two
Close my, close my, close my eyes

But I couldn't find a way
So I'll settle for one day to believe in you
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies

Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies

Although I'm not making plans
I hope that you understand there's a reason why
Close your, close your, close your eyes

No more broken hearts
We're better off apart let's give it a try
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies

Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies

If I could turn the page
In time then I'd rearrange just a day or two
Close my, close my, close my eyes

But I couldn't find a way
So I'll settle for one day to believe in you
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies

Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)

Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me, tell me lies)
 
i swear we are sisters teeps :) x

You could be my silver spring
Blue green colors flashing
I would be your only dream
Like the shining ocean crashing

And did you say that she's pretty?
And did you say she loved you?
Baby I don't want to know

So I begin not to love you
Turn 'round
See me running
I said I loved you years ago
I tell myself
You never loved me, no

And did you say it was worth it?
Really I don't want to know

Time casts a spell on you
But you won't forget me
I know I could have loved you
But you would not let me (x2)
I'll follow you down
'Till the sound of my voice
Will haunt you
You'll never get away from the sound
Of the woman that loves you
(Never get away)
I'll follow you down
'Till the sound of my voice
Will haunt you
(Give me just a chance)

You could be my silver spring
Blue green colors flashing
 
Loving you
Isn't the right thing to do
How can I ever change things
That I feel

If I could
Maybe I'd give you my world
How can I
When you won't take it from me

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way

Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up is all you wanna do

If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
Open up
Everything's waiting for you

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You an call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
go your own way

(Instrumental solo)

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it another lonely day
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it another lonely day

(Instrumental solo)

You can go your own way
You can call it another lonely day
You can go your own way
You can call it... (fade out)
