Well, a person can work up a mean, mean thirst
After a hard day of nothin' much at all
Summer's past, it's too late to cut the grass
There ain't much to rake, anyway, in the fall

Sometimes I just ain't in the mood
To take my place in back with the loudmouths
You're like a picture on a fridge that's never stocked with food
I used to live at home, now I stay at the house

And everybody wants to be special here
They call your name out loud and clear
Here comes a regular, call out your name
Here comes a regular, Am I the only one here today?

Well, a drinking buddy, that's bound to another town
Once the police made you go away
And even if you're in the arms of someone's baby now
I drink a great big whiskey to you anyway
And everybody wants to be someone's here
Someone's gonna show up never fear

Here comes a regular, call out your name
Here comes a regular, Am I the only one who feels ashamed?

And even alongside old, sad eyes, who says:
"Opportunity knocks once, then the door slams shut"
All I know is that I'm sick of everything that my money can buy
A fool who wastes his life, god rests his guts

First the lights, and the collar goes up, and the wind begins to blow
You turn our back on a pay-you-back last call
First the plants, the leaves, the grass and here comes the snow
There ain't much to rake here, anyway, in the fall

Why Don't We Do It In The Road
by The Beatles

Why don't we do it in the road
Why don't we do it in the road
Why don't we do it in the road
Why don't we do it in the road
No one will be watching us
Why don't we do it in the road
Why don't we do it in the road
Why don't we do it in the road
Why don't we do it in the road
Why don't we do it in the road
No one will be watching us
Why don't we do it in the road
Why don't we do it in the road
Why don't we do it in the road
Why don't we do it in the road
Why don't we do it in the road
No one will be watching us
Why don't we do it in the road

Follow Me
by Uncle Cracker

You don’t know how you met me
You don’t know why, you cant turn around and say good-bye
All you know is when I’m with you I make you free
And swim through your veins like a fish in the sea
I’m singing....

Follow me
Everything is alright
I’ll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won’t find nobody else like me

I’m not worried ’bout the ring you wear
Cause as long as no one knows
Than nobody can care
Your feelin guilty
And I’m well aware
But you don’t look ashamed
And baby I’m not scared
Im singin...

Follow me
Everything is alright
I’ll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won’t find nobody else like me

Won’t give you money
I can’t give you the sky
It better off if you don’t ask why
I’m not the reason that you go a stray and
We’ll be alright if you don’t ask me to stay

Follow me
Everything is alright
I’ll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won’t find nobody else like me

You don’t know how you met me
You don’t know why, you cant turn around and say good-bye
All you know is when I’m with you I make you free
And swim through your veins like a fish in the sea
I’m singing....

Follow me
Everything is alright
I’ll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won’t find nobody else like me

Follow me
Everything is alright
I’ll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won’t find nobody else like me

Awake
by Godsmack

Wait another minute.
Can’t you see what this pain has fucking done to me?
I’m alive and still kickin’.
What you see I can’t see...
And maybe you’ll think before you speak.

I’m alive
for you.
I’m awake
because of you.
I’m alive
I told you.
I’m awake
swallowing you.

Take another second.
Turn your back on me...
And make believe that you’re always happy.
It's safe to say you're never alive.
A big part of you has died.
And by the way...
I hope you’re satisfied.

I’m alive
for you.
I’m awake
because of you.
I’m alive
I told you.
I’m awake
swallowing you.

Tearing it back unveiling me.
Taking a step back so I can breathe.
Hear the silence about to break.
Fear resistance when I’m awake.

"Higher Coward" (Immolation)

Cowards, with your empty hearts
And narrow minds...So bitter
our confusion is overwhelming
So aimless and misguided
Your search for a higher power
Something better than yourselves
In a perfect world, your perfect god
Is a coward just like you
Watch them gather, they flock together
For in numbers they feel strength
Will you find your way to paradise,
Through the darkness within your light
To the children, they feed his body
Peel his flesh from off the cross
In his blood they'll wash away
All the dirt from their souls
Obedient young, they'll join the flock
With minds like clay and hearts so pure
Fill them with his words and fears
And feed them to the waiting beast
His open arms and splendid brilliance
Devours those who can not see
The dimming light from high above
Vanquished by their higher coward
How can you glorify and praise
One so weak, imperfect and insane
The magnitude of his madness is so clear
In the eyes of the herd that he keeps
Look what you have become
Just another like all the rest

[Jenzy]

I Can't Tell You Why
by the Eagles

Look at us baby, up all night
Tearing our love apart
Aren’t we the same two people who live
Through years in the dark?
Ahh...

Every time I try to walk away
Something makes me turn around and stay
And I can’t tell you why

When we get crazy,
It just ain’t to right,
(try to keep you head, little girl)
Girl, I get lonely, too
You don’t have to worry
Just hold on tight
(don’t get caught in your little world)
’cause I love you
Nothing’s wrong as far as I can see
We make it harder than it has to be
And I can’t tell you why
No, baby, I can’t tell you why

Every time I try to walk away
Something makes me turn around and stay
And I can’t tell you why

No, no, baby, I can’t tell you why
I can’t tell you why
I can’t tell you why

[AndrogynousCharade]

Heifer whines could be human cries
Closer comes the screaming knife
This beautiful creature must die
This beautiful creature must die
A death for no reason
And death for no reason is MURDER

And the flesh you so fancifully fry
Is not succulent, tasty or kind
It's death for no reason
And death for no reason is MURDER

And the calf that you carve with a smile
Is MURDER
And the turkey you festively slice
Is MURDER
Do you know how animals die ?


Kitchen aromas aren't very homely
It's not "comforting", cheery or kind
It's sizzling blood and the unholy stench
Of MURDER


It's not "natural", "normal" or kind
The flesh you so fancifully fry
The meat in your mouth
As you savour the flavour
Of MURDER


No, no, no its murder
and who hears when animals cry ?

[Jenzy]

still is the light
of your room
when you're not inside
and all of your things
tell the sweetest story line
tears on these sheets
and your footprints are down the hall
tell me what i did
i cant find where the moment went wrong at all

you can be mad in the morning
i'll take back what i said
just dont leave me alone here
its cold baby
come back to bed
come back to bed
come back to bed
come back to bed

what will this fix
you know you're not a quick forgive
and i wont sleep through this
i survive on the breath
you are finished with

you can be mad in the morning
i'll take back what i said
just dont leave me alone here
its cold baby
come back to bed
come back to bed
come back to bed
come on come back to bed
come back to bed...

you can be mad in the morning
or the afternoon instead
but dont leave me
98.6 degrees of separation
from you baby
come back to bed
come back to bed
come back to bed

dont hold your love over my head
dont hold your love over my head
dont hold your love over my head
dont hold your love one more time around baby

dont hold your love over my head. . .

[Jonathan]

Falling fast through cracks in heaven,
come carnivores is search of meat,
the prophets of the moral order
lead their herds of silent sheep,

architects of social breeding
propagate their promised faith,
the fascist seed is firmly planted,
loving hands now turn to rape,

armies of the middle class,
embed their youth with reason's tools,
what calous ill-begotten race,
could build a nation born of fools?

Pulling your nails…outward.
Pulling your nails.

Ressurect the age-old weapon,
keep them drunk so no one thinks.
Sciences of mass deception,
global propaganda schemes,

liberate the dead among us,
history's not preordained,
anarchistic undertakers
overthrow their overlords.

Black sheep soon all grow in number,
congregations multiply,
shepards of the dead world order,
watch their flock collapse and die.

What does it take for a nation to believe?
To die on its feet instead of living on its knees,
what will it take for a conscious working class
to put the greedy in their graves with their money up their ass,

the story of the year is the story of the day,
the people never change they just look the other way,
the world doesn't wait for the bodies of the weak,
the enemy is time- freedom's never free.

I got the call today, I didn’t wanna hear
But I knew that it would come
An old, true friend of ours was talkin’ on the phone
She said you’d found someone
And I thought of all the bad luck,
And the struggles we went through
And how I lost me and you lost you
What are these voices outside love’s open door
Make us throw off our contentment
And beg for something more?
I’m learning to live without you now
But I miss you sometimes
The more I know, the less I understand
All the things I thought I knew, I’m learning again
I’ve been tryin’ to get down
To the heart of the matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it’s about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don’t love me anymore
These times are so uncertain
There’s a yearning undefined
And people filled with rage
We all need a little tenderness
How can love survive in such a graceless age?
The trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness
They’re the very things - we kill I guess
Pride and competition
Cannot fill these empty arms
And the work I put between us
You know it doesn’t keep me warm
I’m learning to live without you now
But I miss you, baby
And the more I know, the less I understand
All the things I thought I’d figured out
I have to learn again
I’ve been trying to get down
To the heart of the matter
But everything changes
And my friends seem to scatter
But I think it’s about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don’t love me anymore
There are people in your life who’ve come and gone
They let you down you know they hurt your pride
You better put it all behind you baby; life goes on
You keep carryin’ that anger; it’ll eat you up inside, baby
I’ve been trying to get down
To the heart of the matter
But my will gets weak
And my thought seem to scatter
But I think it’s about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don’t love me
I’ve been tryin’ to get down
To the heart of the matter
Because the flesh will get weak
And the ashes will scatter
So I’m thinkin’ about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don’t love me
Forgiveness
Forgiveness - baby
Forgiveness
Forgiveness
Forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, you don’t love me anymore

Desperado, why don’t you come to your senses?
You been out ridin’ fences for so long now
Oh, you’re a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin’ you
Can hurt you somehow

Don’ you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She’ll beat you if she’s able
You know the queen of heats is always your best bet

Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can’t get

Desperado, oh, you ain’t gettin’ no youger
Your pain and your hunger, they’re drivin’ you home
And freedom, oh freedom well, that’s just some people talkin’
Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don’t your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won’t snow and the sun won’t shine
It’s hard to tell the night time from the day
You’re loosin’ all your highs and lows
Ain’t it funny how the feeling goes away?

Desperado, why don’t you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin’, but there’s a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you, before it’s too late

[Jenzy]

Sanctuary
by Madonna

(spoken)
Surely whoever speaks to me in the right voice
Him or her I shall follow

Who needs the sun, when the rain’s so full of life
Who needs the sky
It’s here in your arms I want to be buried
You are my sanctuary

Who needs the sun, when the rain’s so full of life
Who needs the sky, when the ground’s open wide
It’s here in your arms I want to be buried
You are my sanctuary

Who needs a smile, when a tear’s so full of love
Who needs a home, with the stars up above
It’s here in your heart I want to be carried
You are my sanctuary

Who needs the light, with the darkness in your eyes
Who needs to sleep, with the stars in the sky
It’s here in your soul I want to be married
You are my sanctuary

(spoken)
And the earth was void and empty
And darkness was upon the face of the earth

Is all of this pain so necessary
You are my sanctuary

(spoken)
Surely whoever speaks to me in the right voice
Him or her I shall follow
As the water follows the moon, silently

Who needs the sun [with fluid steps]
Who needs the sky [around the globe]
Who needs to sleep
You are [you are] my sanctuary
You are [you are, you are]
You are [you are] my sanctuary

[horhey]

ryan, what the fuck happened?
your life expired... you retired
you left many accomplishments unfinished

ryan, what the fuck was it like?
did you fight for your life gaged with agony?

there was no time for you to be advised...
i feel skeptic but i ask....

did you get fucked up then fuck up?
i don't mean to prosecute,
i just don't understand why you'd die

why, was it the injection?
your bodies rejection?
i wish this was just pretend (you were my best friend)

its fucked but i'll have to deal with it
your body's now cold and decrepit
your mind will still be with me, just not your body

---Jorge 2003

[Ciaran]

Is there anybody going to listen to my story
All about the girl who came to stay?
She's the kind of girl
you want so much it make you sorry
Still you don't regret a single day
Ah, girl, Girl, Girl

When I think of all the times
I tried to hard to leave her
She will turn to me and start to cry
And she promises the earth to me
and I believe her
After all this time I don't know why
Ah, girl, girl, girl

She's the kind of girl who puts you down
When friends are there
You feel a fool
When you say she's looking good
She acts as if it's understood
she's cool, ooh, oo, oo, oo
Girl, girl, girl

Was she told when she was young
that pain would lead to pleasure
Did she understand it when they said
That a man must break his back
to earn his day of leisure?
Will she still believe it when he's dead
Ah, girl, girl, girl
Girl

[Ciaran]

The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
Out at you from their hiding place
Like acid and oil on a madman's face
His reason tends to fly away

Like lesser birds on the four winds
Like silver scrapes in May
Now the sands become a crust
And most of you have gone away

Come Susy dear, let's take a walk
Just out there upon the beach
I know you'll soon be married
And you want to know where the winds come from

Well it's never said at all
On the map that Carrie reads
Behind the clock back there you know
At the four winds bar

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Four winds at the four winds bar
Two doors locked and windows barred
One door let to take you in
The other one just mirrors it
Hey, hey, hey, hey

In hellish glare and inference
The other one's a duplicate
The queenly flux, eternal light
Or the light that never warms
Or the light that never warms
Or the light that never warms

The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
Out at you from their hiding place
Miss Carrie nurse and Suzy dear
Would find themselves at the four winds bar

It's the nexus of the crisis
The origin of storms
Just the place to hopelessly
Encounter time and then came me
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Call me Desdenova, eternal light
These gravely digs of mine
Will surely prove a sight
And don't forget my dog, fixed and consequent

Astronomy...a star
Astronomy...a star
Astronomy...a star
Astronomy...a star

[Seattle Death Metal]

When you came to me with your bad dreams and your fears
It was easy to see that you'd been crying
Seems like everywhere you turn catastrophe it reigns
But who really profits from the dying
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you forever
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you in my arms forever

When you kissed my lips with my mouth so full of questions
It's my worried mind that you quiet
Place your hands on my face
Close my eyes and say
Love is a poor man's food
Don't prophesize
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you forever
And I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you forever

So now we see how it is
This fist begets the spear
Weapons of war
Symptoms of madness
Don't let your eyes refuse to see
Don't let your ears refuse to hear
Or you ain't never going to shake this sense of sadness
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold on forever
And I could hold you in my arms
I could hold forever

[Jenzy]

Nobody Told Me
by John Lennon

Everybody’s talking and no one says a word
Everybody’s making love and no one really cares
There’s nazis in the bathroom just below the stairs
Always something happening and nothing going on
There’s always something cooking and nothing in the pot
They’re starving back in china so finish what you got

Nobody told me there’d be days like these
Nobody told me there’d be days like these
Nobody told me there’d be days like these
Strange days indeed -- strange days indeed

Everybody’s runnin’ and no one makes a move
Everyone’s a winner and nothing left to lose
There’s a little yellow idol to the north of katmandu
Everybody’s flying and no one leaves the ground
Everybody’s crying and no one makes a sound
There’s a place for us in the movies you just gotta lay around

Nobody told me there’d be days like these
Nobody told me there’d be days like these
Nobody told me there’d be days like these
Strange days indeed -- most peculiar, mama

Everybody’s smoking and no one’s getting high
Everybody’s flying and never touch the sky
There’s a ufo over new york and I ain’t too surprised

Nobody told me there’d be days like these
Nobody told me there’d be days like these
Nobody told me there’d be days like these
Strange days indeed -- most peculiar, mama whoa

Starting Over
by John Lennon

Our life together is so precious together
We have grown, we have grown
Although our love is still special
Let’s take a chance and fly away somewhere alone

It’s been too long since we took the time
No-one’s to blame, I know time flies so quickly
But when I see you darling
It’s like we both are falling in love again
It’ll be just like starting over, starting over

Everyday we used to make it love
Why can’t we be making love nice and easy
It’s time to spread our wings and fly
Don’t let another day go by my love
It’ll be just like starting over, starting over

Why don’t we take off alone
Take a trip somewhere far, far away
We’ll be together all alone again
Like we used to in the early days
Well, well, well darling

It’s been too long since we took the time
No-one’s to blame, I know time flies so quickly
But when I see you darling
It’s like we both are falling in love again
It’ll be just like starting over, starting over

Our life together is so precious together
We have grown, we have grown
Although our love is still special
Let’s take a chance and fly away somewhere

Starting over. . .

Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me.
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't.
I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holdin me
Mornin will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight.
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't.

[Jenzy]

Will you stop that!!!!!! You're reading my mind right now!!!
Love ya!!

Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me.
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't.
I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holdin me
Mornin will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight.
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't.

It's Goin Down Tonight
by Nate Dogg

It's goin down tonight
I'll do your body right
If you have the time
It's goin down tonight

[Nate Dogg]
You must be a special lady, I know
Cos everywhere we go
You always bring attention to me
You gotta be a special lady, fo' sho'
I know, I love the way you makin me tweek (Ooooh baby)
Love the outfit you're wearin, that's dope
Just as sure as chronic makes me choke
Girl I never ever want you to leave (Heeehay lady)
Would you like to go and see a movie? Let's go
I hope we can make another movie tonight (Ooooh baby)
First we'll get in the jacuzzi, no clothes
I know, in a minute I'll be lickin you dry (Heeeeey)
The next scene is really amazing, no joke
You prone, girl it's on

It's goin down tonight
I'll do your body right
If you have the time
It's goin down tonight

[Isaac Reese]
The love I'm tryin to give
is better than a one night stand
They say you're a hell of a woman
Well I can be a hell of a man
The way you stole my heart
I'd even cook you breakfast in bed
And you don't have to move a muscle
Just lay back and relax, chill

It's goin down tonight
I'll do your body right
If you have the time
It's goin down tonight

[Danny "Butch" Means]
It seems like only yesterday
I first met you
Grey skies turned blue
I wish I knew
Why do you always hesitate?
What did I do?
All I wanna do is be with you
Baby can it go down

It's goin down tonight
I'll do your body right
If you have the time
It's goin down tonight

[MEL]

There you are
Holding her hand
I am lost
Dying to understand
Didn't I
Cherish you right
Don't you know
You were my life

Even though I try
I can't let go
Something in your eyes
Captured my soul
And every night
I see you in my dreams
You're all I know
I can't let go

Just cast aside
You don't even know I'm alive
You just walk on by
Don't care to see me cry
And here I am
Still holding on
I can't accept
My world is gone

Do you even realize
The sorrow I have inside
Everyday of my life
Do you know the way it feels
When all you have just dies
I try and try
To deny that I need you
But still you remain on my mind



No I just can't get you out of my mind
I never can say goodbye
'Cause every night
I see you in my dreams
You're all I know
I can't let you go
Even though I try
I can't let go of something that I need so badly
You're all I know
I can't let go

Night Patrol
(Robert Cray)

See him cuddled in the shadows
Sleepin' on his cardboard bed
Using rags for a pillow
Where he lays his unwashed head
His blanket's old newspaper
Not much good against the snow
See so many like him out there
When you walk the night patrol
When you walk the night patrol

Oh, you wonder where he came from
Where he's gonna go
Was it a woman or a bottle?
That's brought him down so low
What's happened to his family?
Do they know he's out here in the cold?
He's just a nameless soldier
Marching on the night patrol
Marching on the night patrol

Like that girl on the corner
She can't be more than seventeen
She's run away from somewhere
Taking nothing but her dreams
Now those dreams are lying shattered
As the street exacts its toll
And she's just another victim
Lost out on the night patrol

Oh, you could ask me why I'm out here
Where do I fit into the scene?
Now I'm drawing unemployment
Got replaced by a machine
And I'm torchured by my bad habits
Sometimes, I lose this struggle to control
And the street has its attractions
When you walk the night patrol
When you walk the night patrol
