song quote game

[TLK]

Came in from a rainy Thursday
On the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly

I turned on the lights, the TV
And the radio
Still I can't escape the ghost of you

What has happened to it all?
Crazy, some are saying
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

[SplitPersonality1]

Crazy im crazy for feelin so lonely
im crazy, crazy for feelin so blue
i knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
and then some day you'd leave me for somebody new

worry, why do i let myself worry
wondering what in the world did i do

crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
im crazy for trying
and crazy for for crying
and im crazy for loving you

worry, why do i let myself worry
wonderin what in the world did i do

crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
im crazy for trying
and crazy for crying
and im crazy for loving you

sorry fellas.. can't get this song out of head..

(cue music)

Pass me the ball
Ball hog
Mmmmm hmmm

I am so damn good
As the take the ball
and take it to the hardwood

Saw an elbow fly
Hit me in my eye
I was knocked right off my feet
The sideline's where I lie

I'm never gonna ball again
Busted eye ain't got no vision
It's not easier to defend
I know I cannot shoot

Should've thrown an elbow right across his head
And share the pain that I was given
So I'm never gonna ball again
Because I was fouled by a fool

Oh nooo

Time has healed my wound
I will step back on the hardwood
He tried to steal and dived
Clipped me in my thigh
Pain is coursing through my veins
The sideline is where I lie

I'm never gonna ball again
Busted leg ain't got no feeling
Wishing for my knee to bend
I am in no good mood

Should've thrown my leg out and trip up the fiend
And share the pain that I was given
So I'm never gonna ball again
My cast was signed by that darn fool

Never play basketball

Tonight the big game just sold out
I wish I could play for this crowd
Injuries won't allow me to play
All I wanna do is stay within the NBA

Received my release in a letter
My leg seemed it would get much better
But Jerry Buss had just told me
Please leave

And I'm never gonna ball again
This time it's not my decision
I wish they had a new GM
but now the point is moot

Should've skipped practice to avoid Kobe
His attitude has caused more damage
So I'm never gonna ball again
The team is witin Kobe's rule

Oh nooo

Now that I'm gone
Now that I'm gone
Now that I'm gone
What you did was wrong
So wrong
That the sport will die all alone

A foul foul
A foul foul
A foul foul
A foul foul
A foul foul
A foul foul

Do you not hear me anymore
I know it’s not your thing to care
I know it’s cool to be so bored

But it sucks me in when you’re aloof
It sucks me in, it sucks it works
I guess it’s cool to be alone

Will you never rest
Fighting the battle of who could care less
Every day you wake up late
Sometimes I wish I was
. . .That way

And you think Rockford Files is cool
But there are some things
That you would change
If it were up to you

So think about your masterpiece
Watch the Rockford Files and
Call to see if Paul can score some weed

Will you never rest
Fighting the battle of who could care less
Unearned unhappiness
That’s alright I guess

I’ve got this great idea
Why don’t we pitch to the Franklin fucking Mint
Fine pewter portraits of
General Apathy and Major Boredom singing
. . .Whatever and ever amen.

Oh well maybe not try again

This should cheer you up for sure
See I’ve got your old I.D.
And you’re all dressed up like The Cure

You never rest
Fighting the battle of who could care less
Unearned unhappiness
You’re my hero I confess

[weinstein7]

This is Jim Rockford, at the tone leave your name and message and I'll get back to you.

I will wait a lifetime if it takes that long
I know she's out there for I have heard her song
In dreams she sings to me
Her angel's voice a symphony
Is she in a garden or a meadow fair
Does the dappled sunlight shine ribbons in her hair?
Does she sit patiently smiling as she waits for me?

She's my millionaire girlfriend and she's my life
Once I finally find her I'll get permission from the wife
We will all live in our castle high
My beloved and my millionaire girlfriend and I

She's s stolen secret from a pirate's chest
I will wear an ascot and a suit that has a vest
And I will put it on as I watch gardener mow the lawn
She's a fairy princess from a song of old
I will have a toothbrush that is made of solid gold
And I will watch TV as my manservant flosses me

She's my millionaire girlfriend and she's my life
Once I finally find her I'll get permission from the wife
We will all live in our castle high
My beloved and my millionaire girlfriend and I

It does not matter to me if she's pretty
All that counts is what she's got at Citibank
Chase Manhattan or even Washington Mutual

When my search is ended I will cherish her
She will sign some papers, give me power of attorney
And what's hers will be mine in perpetuity

She's my millionaire girlfriend and she's my life
Once I finally find her I'll get permission from the wife
We will all live in our castle high
My beloved and my millionaire girlfriend and I
My beloved and my millionaire girlfriend and I
My beloved and my millionaire girlfriend and I

{for the record.... I was content w/ Shorty killing this thread }

It's alright / to tell me / what you think / about me
I won't try / to argue / or hold it / against you
I know that / you're leaving / you must have / your reasons
The season / is calling / and your pictures / are falling down

The steps that / I retrace / the sad look / on your face
The timing / and structure / did you hear / he fucked her?
A day late / a buck short / I'm writing / the report
On losing / and failing / when I move / I'm flailing now

And it's happened once again I'll turn to a friend
Someone that understands
Sees through the master plan

But everybody's gone
And I've been here for too long
To face this on my own
Well I guess this is growing up

Well I guess this is growing up

And maybe / I'll see you / at a movie / sneak preview
You'll show up / and walk by / on the arm / of that guy
And I'll smile / and you'll wave / we'll pretend / it's okay
The charade / it won't last / when he's gone / I won't come back

And it'll happen once again
You'll turn to a friend

I ran into you two today
And it took me a moment to recognize you
Looking at you at each other's side
A wave of something passed over me

And it was warm for a moment I
Forgot where I was and
How I got there, feeling so undone
I suppose I could forgive

And for me forgiveness
Smells like a bloody defeat
I gave up on talking to either one of you
Long ago
Don't stop the course of things
For my sake please

It was warm for a moment, I
Felt as if my life had just started
Feeling invincible in light of
Forgiveness

I ran into you two today
And it took me a moment to recognize you
Looking at you at each other's side
A wave of something passed over me

And I was warm for a moment, I
Forgot where I was and
How I got there, feeling so undone
I suppose I could forgive
I was warm for a moment, I
Felt as if my life had just started
Feeling invincible in light of
Forgiveness

I'm coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his—chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go

I just can’t look its killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Turning through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside

I’m coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his—chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go

Cause I just can’t look its killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Turning through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside

I never...
I never...
I never...

All the scientists are running around
Looking for the monkey but he can't be found
'Cause he's down at the pond playing hockey with the kids

All the teachers are running around
Looking for the children but they can't be found
'Cause they're down at the pond playing hockey with the monkey

And it's 1-2-3
The kids of the monkey
4-5-6
The monkey's got a hockey stick
7-8-9
Havin' a good time, yeah

ll the boys voices cracking,
Oh, the moaning half tones,
Come summer time,
We're all the same age here,
All the tension and the terror,
Thin limbed gorgeous green eyes smiling,
And I'm going straight to hell,
All the possibility and promise just,
Weighs on me so heavily,

And I try but I'm not convincing,
Your lips they pout and twist and,
I die trying just to keep myself from kissing you,
You take in everything with a certainty I envy
It's somehow all I need just keep me guessing please,

Oh darling all of these awkward jump-start-stalling conversations,
Mean much more to me than anything,
So it comes down to me and you and,
Whether were supposed to or not we still will,
We're so much better off than them,
All the possibility and promise just,
Weighs on me so heavily,

And I try but I'm not convincing,
Your lips they pout and twist and,
I die trying just to keep myself from kissing you,
You take in everything with a certainty I envy
It's somehow all I need just keep me guessing please!

A look,
A laugh,
A smile,
A second,
Passes by and I regret it,
Words just aren't right,
Sometimes I just can't explain,
All the ways you devastate me,
Always on my mind,

I try but I'm not convincing,
Your lips they pout and twist and,
I die trying just to keep myself from kissing you,
You take in everything with a certainty I envy
It's somehow all I need just keep me guessing,

I try but I'm not convincing,
Your lips they pout and twist and,
I die trying just to keep myself from kissing you,
You take in everything with a certainty I envy
It's somehow all I need just keep me guessing please.

Show a little compassion for Michael Jackson
When he turns up on the evening news
Don’t judge that man or make fun of his tan
Until you’ve walked a mile backwards in his sequined shoes
And even if he is as bad as we might fear
We’re to blame, we gave him fame, and we can make him disappear

Famous people are weird
They can’t help it
It just goes along with being a star
We need our stars to act a little bizarre
If only to assure us how normal we are
When they’re smeared we’re all too eager to jeer
And when they’re cleared we’ll be first in line to cheer at the world premiere
Famous people are weird

So why don’t you show a little compassion for Michael Jackson
That poor guy never had a chance of being normal
And neither would you if your parents had you up there singing and dancing
When you were younger than the drummer from Hanson
You’da probably turned out like Marilyn Manson
Prancing on stage without any pants on

And even if they’re not as strange as they appear
We believe everything we hear
Like the one about Richard Gere
Just keep in mind before you sneer
Who gave them their career

Famous people are weird
They can’t help it
It just goes along with being a star

It’s like being the president
They start hating you the minute they vote you in

[Ksyrup]

I hate California
There's something out there I just don't get
I know your friends out there must think I'm pretty strange
Because I dress as if the weather's gonna change
But it never does
I hate California

I hate California
The sun goes down the wrong side
Something in the water, maybe something in the sand
Maybe some west coast thing I'll never understand
Maybe just because
I hate California

I don't blame the Beach Boys
I don't blame Hollywood
I don't blame L.A.
Although I probably should
I don't blame the sky for its careless shade of blue
Lord knows I don't blame you
Lord knows I don't blame you

I hate California
One more beach day come and gone
And by the time you've finished gazing at the sea
3,000 miles away there's nothing left for me
If there ever was
I hate California

I don't blame the Beach Boys
I don't blame Hollywood
I don't blame L.A.
Although I probably should
I don't blame the sky for its careless shade of blue
Lord knows I don't blame you
Lord knows I don't blame you
Lord knows
I hate California

[Ksyrup]

California, California
You're such a wonder that I think I'll stay in bed
Big time rollers, part time models
So much to plunder
That I think I'll sleep instead

I don't know this sea of neon
Thousand surfers, whiffs of freon
And big nights back east with Rhoda
California please

There's a moment
I've been saving
A kind of crucifix around this munchkin land
Up north freezing, little me drooling
That's Entertainment's on at eight
Come on Ginger slam

I don't know this sea of neon
Thousand surfers, whiffs of freon
And my new grandma Bea Arthur
Come on over

Ain't it a shame that at the top
Peanut butter and jam they served you
Ain't it a shame that at the top
Still those soft skin boys can bruise you
Yes I fell for a streaker

I don't know this sea of neon
Thousand surfers, whiffs of freon

Ain't it a shame
That all the world can't enjoy your mad traditions
Ain't it a shame that all the world
Don't got keys to their own ignitions
Life is the longest death in California

California
You're such a wonder that I think I'll stay in bed
So much to plunder that I think I'll sleep instead
You're such a wonder that I think I'll stay in bed
So much to plunder that I think I'll sleep instead

There is a city by the sea
A gentle company
I don't suppose you'd want to?

And as it tells its sorry tale
In harrowing detail
Its hollowness will haunt you

Its streets and boulevards,
Orphans and oligarchs
And here's a plaintive melody
A truncated symphony.
An ocean's garbled vomit on the shore:
Los Angeles, I m yours.

O ladies, pleasant and demure
Sallow cheek'd and sure
(I can see your undies)

And all the boys you drag about
An empty, fallow fount
From Saturdays to Mondays

You hill and valley crowd
Hanging your trousers down at heel.
This is the realest thing
As ancient choirs sing
A dozen blushing cherubs wheel above:
Los Angeles, my love.

O what a rush of ripe elan
Langour on divans
Dalliant and dainty!

But oh the smell of burnt cocaine,
The dolor and the decay
It only makes me cranky.

O great calamity
Ditch of iniquity and tears,
How I abhor this place!
Its sweet and bitter taste
Has left me wretched, retching on all fours,
Los Angeles, I m yours.

[mckerney]

someone's always coming around here trailing some new kill
says i seen your picture on a hundred dollar bill
and what's a game of chance to you, to him is one of real skill
so glad to meet you
angeles
picking up the ticket shows there's money to be made
go on and lose the gamble that's the history of the trade
you add up all the cards left to play to zero
and sign up with evil
angeles
don't start me trying now
cos i'm all over it
angeles
i could make you satisfied in everything you do
all your 'secret wishes' could right now be coming true
and be forever with my poison arms around you
no one's gonna fool around with us
no one's gonna fool around with us
so glad to meet you

Mom helped pack the hatchback up
Dad was still asleep
Loaded down with all this stuff
I don't know if I can leave

Daddy told me not to let them
Sell me out, sell me in
Color me misunderstood
But I won't go Hollywood

No one here is where I'm from
Or where I wanna be
We all get drunk on too much sun
And don't know who to be

Don'tcha worry I won't let them
Sell me out, sell me in
Color me misunderstood
But I won't go Hollywood

Don'tcha worry I just let them
Sell me out, sell me in
Color me misunderstood
But I won't go Hollywood

A long December and there’s reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can’t remember the last thing that you said as you were leavin’
Now the days go by so fast

And it’s one more day up in the canyons
And it’s one more night in Hollywood
If you think that I could be forgiven...I wish you would

The smell of hospitals in winter
And the feeling that it’s all a lot of oysters, but no pearls
All at once you look across a crowded room
To see the way that light attaches to a girl

And it’s one more day up in the canyons
And it’s one more night in Hollywood
If you think you might come to California...I think you should

Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two A.M.
And talked a little while about the year
I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower,
Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her

And it’s been a long December and there’s reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can’t remember all the times I tried to tell my myself
To hold on to these moments as they pass

And it’s one more day up in the canyon
And it’s one more night in Hollywood
It’s been so long since I’ve seen the ocean...I guess I should

[mckerney]

I found myself today
Oh I found myself and ran away
Something pulled me back
The voice of reason I forgot I had
All I know is you're not here to say
What you always used to say
But it's written in the sky tonight

So I won't give up
No I won't break down
Sooner than it seems life turns around
And I will be strong
Even if it all goes wrong
When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe
Someone's watching over me

I've seen that ray of light
And it's shining on my destiny
Shining all the time
And I wont be afraid
To follow everywhere it's taking me
All I know is yesterday is gone
And right now I belong
To this moment to my dreams

So I won't give up
No I won't break down
Sooner than it seems life turns around
And I will be strong
Even if it all goes wrong
When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe
Someone's watching over me

It doesn't matter what people say
And it doesn't matter how long it takes
Believe in yourself and you'll fly high
And it only matters how true you are
Be true to yourself and follow your heart

So I won't give up
No I won't break down
Sooner than it seems life turns around
And I will be strong
Even if it all goes wrong
When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe
That I won't give up
No I won't break down
Sooner than it seems life turns around
And I will be strong
Even when it all goes wrong
When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe
That someone's watching over
Someone's watching over
Someone's watching over me

[TLK]

I've got a regular problem
So my standard break from life is in order
I'm having trouble making sentences
I'm older but I don't feel any smarter
You see I don't know what I said to you
And now you're pissed at you know who
And I guess I deserve it
I wish I could waste my time without wasting all your time
I try to leave a good impression
But it's hard when my obsession's in a wine glass
And when you're only 23
It's not attractive to complain about your sore back
Yes I can bitch until my eyes are blue
And you're in bed with someone new
And I guess you deserve him
Wish I could waste my time without wasting all your time
You say I'm fixable
A classic case, lack of will
I say I don't wanna try
I'd rather stay here all night

I've got a motivation problem
So my standard break from life is getting longer
Spent over 30 hours in this bed
In two days, I guess I could've phoned her
But now that I'm awake
I'd rather take a drink
And walk down to the lake
And beg the sky for lightning bolts
I can't waste my time without wasting all your time
You say it's fixable
A classic case, lack of will
I say I don't wanna try
I'd rather sit here all night

[mckerney]

Well the other day on the radio
I heard this song I used to know
And I remember a time when I was 16
In my old bedroom on 40th street
And I'd just bought a record with my fast food dough
And I opened up the wrapper kinda slow
And I'd never heard nothin' like it before
So I turned it up and I shut the door
I'd never heard nothing like it before
So I turned it up and I shut the door
I think I took off my shirt
I think I took off my pants
I started jumpin' on my bed, I started to dance
I didn't care 'cause I was all alone
And I made my fist into a microphone
And I wanna go back to that very first time
I heard that song and it made me cry
Yeah I wanna go back
To that very first time
I heard that song and it made my cry, cry, cry
Cause the other day on the radio
I heard that song I used to know
It didn't make me weep, it didn't make me smile
I just shrugged my shoulders and I hit the dial
And at the end of the day there's not much to say
And it's a such a relief to be back asleep

[TLK]

Departures are so hard
You claim
Packing up your things
Your necklaces and rings
Your darvidan and morphine

You can't believe the actor
Smacked her
Gave her a black eye
There's something in a western winter
Where it's easier to say
Goodbye, Goodbye

These yellow lights
are turning red (turning red)
You starve your heart
You starve your head
And when its over
You go back to bed

I don't want a job
I don't want to go to school
I don't want a job
I've got more important things to do

[paperstreetsoap]

Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk along are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day?
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now

And all the roads that lead to you were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
I don't know how

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after an
You're my wonderwall

Said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me

[weinstein7]

Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't live for tomorrow
Tomorrow's much too long
I'll burn my eyes out
Before I get out
I wanted more
Than life could ever grant me
Bored by the chore
Of saving face

Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't wait for tomorrow
I might not have that long
I'll tear my heart out
Before I get out

Pink ribbon scars
That never forget
I tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings

Today is
Today is
Today is
The greatest day

I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you

Today is the greatest
Today is the greatest day
Today is the greatest day
That I have ever really known

[TLK]

It's been a long day, living with this
It's been a long time since I felt so sick
I took a long walk straight back home
I coulda walked back to San Francisco
I used to long for a time alone
I used to long for a place of my own
And I'm losing faith in everything
I'm lost, so lost, I'm lost at sea, you see

I used to long for broken bones
I used to long for a casket to call my own
I never had a problem facing fear
But I'm done, over and out, my dear

And oh, mercy me
God blass catastrophe
There's no way in hell
You'll ever live to see through this so
Drive yourself insane tonight
It's not that far away
And I just filled up your tank earlier today
Yeah...

It's been a long day, living with this
It's been a long time since I felt so sick
I took a long walk straight back home
I coulda walked back to Chicago
I used to long for a time alone
I used to long for a place of my own
And I've lost faith in everything
I'm lost, so lost, I'm lost without you

Oh, mercy me
God blass catastrophe
There's no way in hell
We'll ever live to see through this so
Drive yourself insane tonight
It's not that far away
And I just filled up your tank earlier today
Yeah...

So drive yourself insane tonight
It's not that far away
And I just filled up your tank earlier today
Yeah... yeah...

Pretty girl on the hood of a Cadilac, yeah....
She’s broken down on freeway nine.
I take a look and her engine’s started,
I leave her purring and I roll on by....bye bye

Free love on the free love freeway,
The love is free and the freeway’s long...
I got some hot love on the hot-love freeway
I ain’t going home cos’ my baby’s gone

A little while later, see a senorita,
She’s caught a flat trying to make it home,
She says “Por favor, can you pump me up?”
I say “Muchos gracias, adios. Bye Bye.”

Free love on the freelove freeway,
The love is free and the freeway’s long
I got some hot love on the hotlove highway,
Ain't going home ‘cause my baby's gone.

Little while later I see a cowboy crying,
“Hey buddy, what can I do?”
He says “I lived a good life, had about a thousand women.”
I said “Why the tears?”, he says “‘cause none of them was you.”

Free love on the free love freeway,
where the love is free and the freeway is long...
I got some hot love on the hot-love freeway
I ain’t going home cos’ my baby’s gone

Free love on the free love freeway,
where the love is free and the freeway is long...
I got some hot love on the hot-love freeway
I ain’t going home cos’ my baby’s gone

Spaceman came down to answer some things,
The world gathered round from paupers to kings,
I’ll answer your questions, I’ll answer them true,
I’ll show the way you know what to do,
Who is wrong and who is right?
Yellow, brown or black or white?
The spaceman he answered “You’ll no longer mind...
I’ve opened your eyes, you’re now colour blind”.

[Ksyrup]

I’ve been stuffed in your pocket for the last hundred days
When I don’t get my bath I take it out on the slaves
So grease up your baby for the ball on the hill
Polish them rockets now, and swallow those pills

And sing... space lord mother

Huh! uh huh

There’s a car in the field now in a column of flame
With two doors to choose but only one bears your name
You’ve been drinking my blood well I’ve been licking your wounds
I’ll shave off the pitch now in the scope of your tune

You’ll sing... space lord mother

I left my throne a million miles away
I drink from your tit
I sing your blues every day
Now give me the strength
To split the world in two yeah
I ate all the rest and now I’ve gotta eat you

Well I sing

Built in my nightmares and using my name
You’re stroking my cortex and you know I’m insane
I’m squeezed out in hump drive and drownin’ in love
Encompass them all to a position above

Well I sing... space lord mother

I left my throne a million miles away
I drink from your tit
I sing your blues every day
Now give me the strength
To split the world in two yeah
I ate all the rest and now I’ve gotta eat you

Well I sing... space lord mother

I lost my soul when I fell to earth
My planets called me to the void of my birth
The time has come for me to kill this game
Now open wide and say my name

Space lord mother

[TLK]

(off the nightmare and name lyric.... by the way... excellent song)

You're on your own my little nightmare you cannot stay here
It's far too bright for you
If they attack you just lay there,
Play dead dear, it's your only hope of pulling through.

And seconds they seem like a lifetime.
A dream, recurring, a dream that can't come true.
And they'll pin it all on you
after all you've been put through.

"Sadie G. she's crazy, see?"
That's what the white coats say.
Now Ms. Susan A. is losing
every opportunity to put us all away.

Go run along my little nightmare.
Your job is done here.
You've scared them all to death.
If they revive them just sit there.
Just smile dear. Make them thankful for every breath.

The sentence may seem like a lifetime,
a scream, that curdling the blood they found on you.
And your knives and clothing too.
Charlie's broken .22

"Sadie G. she's crazy, see?"
That's what the white coats say.
Now Ms. Susan A. is losing
every opportunity.

Well they found you and they shipped you up the river the same way that you've bound and gaged.
You've shot and stab.
You tried to set them free, but they've thrown away the keys.

"I think that if I found a god to me that was so beautiful that I'd do anything for him. I'd do anything for god. Even murder, if I believed it was god, how could it not be right? Because he said it was. I have no remorse for the killer inside of me, I have no guilt in me"

Captain's on a holiday
First Mate has gone away
And Data's down in engineering for repairs
Dr. Crusher's got a cold
Wesley's only twelve years old
And all the other children are mind controlled

Who will lead the crew? What are we to do
When the enemy ship comes into view?
When the pressure's on who will take the con?

Geordi's visor's on the blink
Deanna Troi is on the brink
O'Brien's been reassigned to Deep Space Nine
Barclay's on the Holodeck
Tasha's dead and Ro's a wreck
Garibaldi's not on Star Trek

Who will lead the crew? What are we to do
When the enemy ship comes into view?
Who's to be obeyed when the Borg invade?
This is just what I was afraid of

Mr. Worf comes through
Mr. Worf will lead the crew
Mr. Worf's our man
Mr. Worf will take command

I was hoping for someone else and I'm not just thinking about myself
I'm afraid for all our lives if Worf's in charge of the Enterprise
We wouldn’t care: if Data's cat was in power we'd follow her
If we received our orders from Nurse Ogawa we'd say, "Yes, sir!"

Weren't you the one who pointed your gun
At the viewscreen and you tried to stun
The grinning image of Q, what were you trying to do?
I seem to remember that was you

Mr. Worf don't get mad
You're the best Klingon we've ever had
But Mr. Worf you must see
We need a different kind of security

We're glad you're strong and brave
But we'd prefer a captain who fears the grave
Our standards aren't that high
We only ask that we not die

"I am a Klingon, and in my point of view
It would be dishonorable to cower like the rest of you
I have the ridges of a warrior, I do not fear death
I deposed the House of Duras with a flourish of my Batleth
Star Fleet’s only Klingon, I’m a full Lieutenant Commander
I’ve got two dead wives and a son named Alexander
Now matter what I am equal to the test, I’ll kill them before I maim the rest
So be it Romulan Warbird or a cargo freighter, I’ll fire phasers first and ask questions later”

Now the captain's back things are back on track
Thank God I nearly had a heart attack
Riker's back and I've managed to survive
Never been so happy to be alive


I hope you don't take this the wrong way, Mr. Worf
And I pray it's okay if I say, Mr. Worf
That although you're as large as a barge, Mr. Worf
It's a good thing you're not in charge

[TLK]

Let's go away for a while
you and I
To a strange and distant land
Where they speak no word of truth
But we don't understand anyway
Holiday
Far away
To stay
On a Holiday
Far away
Let's go today
In a Heartbeat!
Don't bother to pack your bags
Or your map
We won't need them where we're goin'
We're goin' where the wind is blowin'
Not knowin' where we're gonna stay
We will write a postcard
To our friends and family
In free verse
On the road with Kerouac,
Sheltered in his Bevourac,
On this road we'll never die...
Let's go away!

[Ksyrup]

To pick up where I left the story.
I lost her in a crowd.
I wasn't about to give myself away
That never was my style.
But I lost her in the crowd.
Oh no, a holiday.

What better time to get away.
I've got nothing else to do
But run away with you.
You always had your shit together.
I've got mine together too.
So what do you say?

I'm not impressed so easily.
I think I think too much you see.
Oh I'd love the ability to simply let things go.
Picture this a life of ease and there's no one that you must please.
No one keeps you on your knees not unless you want them to.
Oh my, a holiday.

What better time to get away.
I've got nothing else to do
But run away with you.
You always had your shit together.
I've got mine together too.

A holiday.

What better time to get away.
I've got nothing else to do
But run away with you.
You always had your shit together.
I've got mine together too.
So what do you say come on lets take a holiday.

What better time to get away.
I've got nothing else to do
But run away with you.
You always had your shit together.
I've got mine together too.
So what do you say a holiday.

What better time to get away.
I've got nothing else to do.
But run away with you say come on.

[korme]

Crazy, how it feels tonight
Crazy, how you, make it all alright love
You crush me, with the, things you do
I do, for you, anything too oh
Sitting, smoking, feeling high
And in this, moment, ah, it feels so right

It's crazy, I'm thinking, just knowing the world is round
And here I'm dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down?
And is this real, or am I dreaming?

Lovely lady, let me drink you, please
I won't spill a, drop no, I promise you
Lying under this spell you cast on me
Each moment the more, I, love, you
Crush me, come on, oh yes

It's crazy I'm thinking, just knowing that the world is round
And here I'm dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down?
Is this real, oh lord, or am I dreaming?

[DeToxRox]

I get up in the evening, and I ain’t got nothing to say
I come home in the morning, I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain’t nothing but tired, man I’m just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

You can’t start a fire, you can’t start a fire without a spark
This gun’s for hire even if we’re just dancing in the dark

Message keeps getting clearer, radio’s on and I’m moving round the place
I check myself out in the mirror I wanna change my clothes my hair my face
Man I ain’t getting nowhere just sitting in a dump like this
There’s something happening somewhere baby I just know that there is

You can’t start a fire...

You sit around getting older there’s a joke here somewhere and it’s on me
I’ll shake this world off my shoulders come baby this laughs on me

Stay on the streets of this town and they’ll be carving you up alright
They say you got to stay hungry hey baby I’m just about starving tonight
I’m dying for some action I’m sick of sitting ’round here trying to write
This book
I need a love reaction come on now baby give me just one look

You can’t start a fire..

[TLK]

This house is full of ears but I can't talk to anyone
They've heard this one a thousand times
Most exciting thing I do - hang half way out a third floor window,
maybe throw lit cigarettes down.
And maybe I'll catch fire,
something warm to hold me,
something pure to burn away the darkness that hides inside my mind.
All that evil shit's not hard to find
I guess I only claim to be nice.

This house is full of eyes but I can't look at anyone
They've seen this face a thousand times
Most relaxing thing I do - hang half way out a third floor window,
and look at rocks if I fall out,
And maybe I'll fall hard,
something tough to break me,
something sharp to rip into my insides and bleed out all that pain.
Sorry I don't even know your name
I guess for me it's easy this way.

Maybe I'll catch fire,
something warm to hold me,
something pure to burn away the darkness that hides inside my mind.
All that evil shit's not hard to find
I guess I only claim to be nice.

[korme]

Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up?
Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck?
Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost?

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

I've been here so long, I think that it's time to move
The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon
Let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow

I've got some friends, some that I hardly know
But we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go

We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand....until you hold my hand

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

Swing life away
Swing life away
Swing life away
Swing life away

[ThunderingHERD]

Eating snow flakes with plastic forks,
and a paper plate, of course--
you think of everything

Short love with a long divorce,
and a couple of kids of course--
they don't mean anything

Live in trailers with no class,
goddamn, I hope I can pass high school
means nothing

Taking heartache with hard work,
Goddamn, I am such a jerk
I can't do anything

And I shout that you're all fakes.
And you should have seen the look on your face.
And I guess that's what it takes
when comparing your bellyaches.
And it's been a long time,
which agrees with this watch of mine.
And I guess that I miss you,
and I'm sorry if I dissed you.

[VPI97]

Do some people wind up with the one that they adore
in a heart-shaped hotel room, it's what a heart is for?
The bubble floats so madly, will it stay sky-high?
Hello partner, kiss your name bye-bye. Ooh, sometimes.

Romantic Piscean seeks angel in disguise,
Chinese-speaking girlfriend, big brown eyes.
Liverpudlian lady, sophisticated male.
Hello partner, tell me love can't fail.

And it's you and me in the summertime,
we'll be hand in hand down in the park.
With a squeeze and a sigh and that twinkle in your eye
and all the sunshine banishes the dark.

Do some people wind up with the one that they abhor
in a distant hell-hole room, the third world war?
But all I see is films where colorless despair
meant angry young men with immaculate hair. Ooh, sometimes.

Get up, a voice inside says there's no time for looking down.
Only a pound a word and you're talking to the town.
But how do you coin the phrase though that will set your soul apart
just to touch a lonely heart.

And it's you and me in the summertime,
we'll be hand in hand down in the park.
With a squeeze and a sigh and that twinkle in your eye
and all the sunshine banishes the dark.

And it's you I need in the summertime
as I turn my white skin red.
Two peas from the same pod, yes we are,
or have I read too much fiction? Is this how it happens?

How does it happen?
How does it happen?
How does it happen?
Is this how it happens?

[TLK]

It's everything that I can do right now
To not think about you moving further off with every passing second
And every night of this lonely summertime
I feel you missing from my heart, a part was kidnapped from my soul

Well I can hardly wait until I get the sun and your lips both pressing on my skin
Well I can hardly wait until I feel that thrill my heart that starts inside your eyes
And a song in my head that burns so good on my tongue
Yes I will, yeah, yeah
Yes I will

The night is aging as the sun warms your face
Won't you turn around and stay for good, the air is getting much too cold
I am nervous and anxious, it really counts this time
And you know all my favorite singers have stolen all of my best lines

Well I can hardly wait until I get the sun and your lips both pressing on my skin
Well I can hardly wait until I feel that thrill my heart that starts inside your eyes
And a song in my head that burns so good on my tongue
Yes I will, yeah, yeah
Yes I will, yeah, yeah
Yes I will

Someday I'll burn this bed
Only two feet wide, but where I'll hide for the next 17 days
I will ask myself, "How badly do I want this?"
I really want this
Well I can hardly wait until I get the sun and your lips both pressing on my skin
Well I can hardly wait until I feel that thrill my heart that starts inside your eyes
And a song in my head that burns so good on my tongue
Yes I will, yeah, yeah
Yes I will, yeah, yeah
Yes I will

[ThunderingHERD]

The most remarkable thing about coming home to you is the feeling of being in motion again-- it's the most extraordinary thing in the world.
I have two big hands and a heart pumping blood and a 1967 colt .45 with a busted safety catch.
The world shines as i cross the macon county line,
going to Georgia.

The most remarkable thing about you standing in the doorway is that it's you--and that you're standing in the doorway.
And you smile as you ease the gun from my hand and i'm frozen with joy right where I stand--the world throws its light underneath your hair.
Forty miles from Atlanta, this is nowhere--
going to Georgia.

The world shines as i cross the Macon county line,
going to Georgia.

[mckerney]

From Antartica to the polar caps
Try to fit a round globe of a little flat map
I'm not going to drive this time
I live green land when it's Africa's size
North is not up and east is not right
Except for Milwaukee, Wisconsin that night
So look at a map and know where you live
And know where you live

I know what it feels like to be upsidedown from here

[timmynausea]

georgia georgia
it's been many miles
since i've seen your foggy smile
close up and personal
your arsenal of excuses
you never told her
when you walked out on the savannah shoulder
with your veins all full of beer
thinking well at least now everything is clear
but oh man
what a plan
suicide
it's just not that much different from my own affair
always cussing and crying

how about if you
tell me something new
tell me what will make you happy
oh you
so deserve to be

there were protests and contests
attitudes to cop
i want it all to stop
three weeks ago you were all grace and charm
and now i know it was just a false alarm
georgia georgia
i can't understand your sickness
you have no forgiveness
and no attention left to pay
the quiet way you leave
and just forget it all
just takes my breath away
how's that supposed to make me feel?
yeah, well, how'm I suppossed to feel?

[ThunderingHERD]

At my low point, I went to a professional.
He asked me some questions, sent me to a doctor.
There is a moment there, when you're under a doctor's care
when you're safe and hopeful.
Punched in the code, ran up the stairwell--
he asked more questions, gave me Celexa.
That's when I really knew, I really knew,
I really knew:
the only thing standing between
me and that long rope over a carpenter's beam
was you.

I went off the pills, bought my ticket.
I used to think there was nothing between us--
just 6000 miles, the Dead Slate Pacific.
On that United flight in a white hot panic I
sank to the bottom of the sea.
Countless horrible creatures, complicated undersea secrets.
If I didn't go diving there with a speargun, knife, and flare--
how would I ever make it through?
That's when I really knew the only thing standing between
me and that rope hung on a carpenter's beam
was you.

Jane says
I'm done with Sergio
He treats me like a ragdoll
She hides
The television
Says I don't owe him nothing,
But if he comes back again
Tell him to wait right here for me
Or just
Try again tomorrow
I'm gonna kick tomorrow
Gonna kick tomorrow

Jane says
Have you seen my wig around?
I feel naked without it
She knows
They all want her to go
But that's O.K. man
She dont like them anyway
Jane says
She's goin away to spain
When she gets my money saved
I'm gonna start tomorrow
I'm gonna kick tomorrow
Gonna kick tomorrow

She gets mad
Starts to cry
She takes a swing but
She cant hit
She don't mean no harm
She just don't know
What else to do about it

Jane goes
To the store at 8:00
She walk up on St. Andrews
She waits
And gets her dinner there
She pulls her dinner
From her pocket
Jane says
I've never been in love
I don't know what it is
Only knows if someone wants her
I want them if they want me
I only know they want me

She gets mad
And she starts to cry
She takes a swing man
She cant hit!
She don't mean no harm
She just dont know
What else to do about it

Jane says
