Doobie Brothers - The Doctor

I'm a man who lives in the city

I'm a man who lives in the street

From F.L.A. to Frisco Bay

And everywhere in between

Coast to coast there's a question

Everybody's always askin' me

People want to know everywhere I go

What can the answer be

Music is the doctor

Makes you feel like you want to

Listen to the doctor

Just like you ought to

Music is the doctor of my soul

Well it seems that when I travel

And I'm out there on the road

The freedom I need is the freedom I leave

In my good time rock and roll

There's a healing in those guitars

And a spirit in the song

No matter what condition your rhythm is in

The message goes on and on

Music is the doctor

Makes you feel like you want to

Listen to the doctor

Just like you ought to

Music is the doctor of my soul

If you ever wonder

How to shake your blues

Just follow this prescription

And get the cure for what's ailin' you

Music is the doctor

Makes you feel like you want to

Listen to the doctor

Just like you ought to

Music is the doctor of my soul

Electric Light Orchestra - Hold on Thight

Hold on tight to your dream

Hold on tight to your dream

When you see your ship go sailing

When you feel your heart is breaking

Hold tight to your dream.

It's a long time to be gone

Time just rolls on and on

When you need a shoulder to cry on

When you get so sick of trying

Just hold tight to your dream

[CHORUS:]

When you get so down that you can't get up

And you want so much but you're all out of luck

When you're so downhearted and misunderstood

Just over & over & over you could

Accroches-toi a ton reve

Accroches-toi a ton reve

Quand tu vois ton bateau partir

Quand tu sents -- ton coeur se briser

Accroches-toi a ton reve.

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Hold on tight to your dream

Hold on tight to your dream

When you see the shadows falling

When you hear that cold wind calling

Hold on tight to your dream.

Oh, yeah

Hold on tight to your dream

Yeah, hold on tight...

To your dream.

The Bangles - Manic Monday

Six o'clock already

I was just in the middle of a dream

I was kissin' Valentino

By a crystal blue Italian stream

But I can't be late

'Cause then I guess I just won't get paid

These are the days

When you wish your bed was already made

It's just another manic Monday

I wish it was Sunday

'Cause that's my funday

My I don't have to runday

It's just another manic Monday

Have to catch an early train

Got to be to work by nine

And if I had an air-o-plane

I still couldn't make it on time

'Cause it takes me so long

Just to figure out what I'm gonna wear

Blame it on the train

But the boss is already there

All of the nights

Why did my lover have to pick last night

To get down

Doesn't it matter

That I have to feed the both of us

Employment's down

He tells me in his bedroom voice

C'mon honey, let's go make some noise

Time it goes so fast

When you're having fun

Dust in the Wind

Kansas

I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone

All my dreams, pass before my eyes of curiosity

Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind

Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea

All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see

Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind

Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky

It slips away, all your money won't another minute buy

Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind

Grind

Alice in Chains

In the darkest hole, you'd be well advised

Not to plan my funeral before the body dies, yeah

Come the morning light, its a see through show

What you may have heard and what you think you know, yeah

Let the sun never blind your eyes

Let me sleep so my teeth don't grind

Hear a sound from a voice inside

Sure to play a part, so you love the game

And in truth your lies become one and same, yeah

I could set you free, rather hear the sound

Of your body breaking as I take you down, yeah

Let the sun never blind your eyes

Let me sleep so my teeth dont grind

Hear a sound from a voice inside

In the darkest hole, you'd be well advised

Not to plan my funeral before the body dies, yeah

Let the sun never blind your eyes

Let me sleep so my teeth don't grind (2x)

Hear a sound from a voice inside

Year of the Cat - Al Stewart

On a morning from a Bogart movie

In a country where they turn back time

You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre

Contemplating a crime

She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running

Like a watercolour in the rain

Don't bother asking for explanations

She'll just tell you that she came

In the year of the cat

She doesn't give you time for questions

As she locks up your arm in hers

And you follow till your sense of which direction

Completely disappears

By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls

There's a hidden door she leads you to

These days, she says, I feel my life

Just like a river running through

The year of the cat

Well morning comes and you're still with her

And the bus and the tourists are gone

And you've thrown away the choice and lost your ticket

So you have to stay on

But the drum-beat strains of the night remain

In the rhythm of the new-born day

You know sometime you're bound to leave her

But for now you're going to stay

In the year of the cat

Run through the Jungle

CCR

Whoa, thought it was a nightmare,

Lo, its all so true,

They told me, dont go walkin slow

cause devils on the loose.

Chorus:

Better run through the jungle,

Better run through the jungle,

Better run through the jungle,

Woa, dont look back to see.

Thought I heard a rumblin

Callin to my name,

Two hundred million guns are loaded

Satan cries, take aim!

Chorus

Over on the mountain

Thunder magic spoke,

Let the people know my wisdom,

Fill the land with smoke.

Bungle in the Jungle

Jethro Tull

Walking through forests of palm tree apartments ---

scoff at the monkeys who live in their dark tents

down by the waterhole --- drunk every Friday ---

eating their nuts --- saving their raisins for Sunday.

Lions and tigers who wait in the shadows ---

they're fast but they're lazy, and sleep in green meadows.

Let's bungle in the jungle --- well, that's all right by me.

I'm a tiger when I want love,

but I'm a snake if we disagree.

Just say a word and the boys will be right there:

with claws at your back to send a chill through the night air.

Is it so frightening to have me at your shoulder?

Thunder and lightning couldn't be bolder.

I'll write on your tombstone, ``I thank you for dinner.''

This game that we animals play is a winner.

Let's bungle in the jungle --- well, that's all right by me.

I'm a tiger when I want love,

but I'm a snake if we disagree.

The rivers are full of crocodile nasties

and He who made kittens put snakes in the grass.

He's a lover of life but a player of pawns ---

yes, the King on His sunset lies waiting for dawn

to light up His Jungle

as play is resumed.

The monkeys seem willing to strike up the tune.

Devil Woman

I've had nothing but bad luck

Since the day I saw the cat at my door

So I came here to you, sweet lady

Answering your mystical call

Crystal ball on the table

Showing the future, the past

Same cat with them evil eyes

And I knew it was a spell she'd cast.

She's just a devil woman

With evil on her mind

Beware the devil woman

She's gonna get you

She's just a devil woman

With evil on her mind

Beware the devil woman

She's gonna get you from behind.

Give me the ring on your finger

Let me see the lines of your hand

I can see me a tall dark stranger

Giving you what you hadn't planned

I drank the potion she offered me

I found myself on the floor

Then I looked in those big green eyes

And I wondered what I came there for.

Stay awake

Look out

If you're out on a moonlit night

Be careful of the neighbourhood strays

Of a lady with long black hair

Tryin' to win you with her feminine ways

Crystal ball on the table

Showing the future, the past

Same cat with them evil eyes

You'd better get out of there fast

She's just a devil woman

With evil on her mind

Beware the devil woman

She's gonna get you.

Afterglow - INXS

Here I am, lost in the light of the moon that comes through my window

Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divides the thorns from the roses

It's you and the roses

Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow

Heal me from all this sorrow

As I let you go I will find my way when I see your eyes

Now I'm living in your afterglow

Here I am, lost in the ashes of time, but who owns tomorrow?

In between the longing to hold you again

I'm caught in your shadow, I'm losing control

My mind drifts away, we only have today

Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow

Heal me from all this sorrow

As I let you go I will find my way

I will sacrifice 'til the blinding day when I see your eyes

Now I'm living in your afterglow

When the veils are gone, as I let you go, as I let you go

Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow

Heal me from all this sorrow

As I let you go I will find my way, I will sacrifice

Now I'm living in your afterglow

Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divides the thorns from the roses

It's you who is closest

How deep is your love

Bee Gees

I know your eyes in the morning sun

I feel you touch me in the pouring rain

And the moment that you wander far from me

I wanna feel you in my arms again

And you come to me on a summer breeze

Keep me warm in your love and then softly leave

And its me you need to show

Chorus:

How deep is your love

I really need to learn

cause were living in a world of fools

Breaking us down

When they all should let us be

We belong to you and me

I believe in you

You know the door to my very soul

Youre the light in my deepest darkest hour

Youre my saviour when I fall

And you may not think

I care for you

When you know down inside

That I really do

And its me you need to show

Chorus

Repeat and fade

That's right, Barry Gibbs is the man. Got a problem with that? Hahahaha Bee Gees rule..

I'm wanting the Grease Soundtrack, bad. I have a Barry Gibb version of the song, Grease (is the word) as he wrote it, but much prefer Franki Valli's version from the movie soundtrack. Good stuff

Noone to run with - Allman Bros

Everybody wants to know where Jimmy has gone

He left town, I doubt if he's coming back home

Well Tony got a job, three kids and a lovely wife

Working at the commerce bank for the rest of his life

Nobody left to run with anymore

Nobody left to do the crazy things we used to do before

Nobody left to run with anymore

I'm gonna hit the road, adios my friend

Go someplace and start all over again

Don't know where I'm going, like a gypsy out on the road

I'll go someplace and join a traveling show

Nobody left to run with anymore

Nobody wants to do the crazy things we used to do before

Nobody left to run with anymore

Nobody left to run with anymore

Nobody left to run with anymore

I think Jimmy must have had the right idea

Packed his stuff and he got right out of here

I don't know where he's at but I'm sure that he's ok

Now I realize what Jimmy was trying to say

Nobody left to run with anymore

Nobody wants to do the crazy things we used to do before

Nobody left to run with anymore

Nobody left to run with anymore

Nobody left to run with anymore

No Excuses - Alice in chains

It's alright

There comes a time

Got no patience to search

For peace of mind

Layin' low

Want to take it slow

No more hiding or

Disguising truths I've sold

Everyday it's something

Hits me all so cold

Find me sittin' by myself

No excuses, then I know

It's okay

Had a bad day

Hands are bruised from

Breaking rocks all day

Drained and blue

I bleed for you

You think it's funny, well

You're drowning in it too

Yeah, it's fine

We'll walk down the line

Leave our rain, a cold

Trade for warm sunshine

You my friend

I will defend

And if we change, well I

Love you anyway

Get Stoned (In Iran)

Hinder

Just hear me out

If it's not perfect I'll perfect it till my heart explodes

I highly doubt

I can make it through another of your episodes

Lashing out

One of the petty moves you pull before you lose control

You wear me out

But it's all right now

Lets go home and get stoned

We could end up makin love instead of misery

Go home and get stoned

Cause the *** is so much better when you're mad at me

You wear me out (We could end up making love instead of misery)

But it's all right now

Without a doubt

The break up is worth the make up *** you're givin me

Lets hash it out

Cause your ******* and your yellin don't mean anything

Don't count me out

I can handle all the baggage that you're carrying

You wear me out

But it's all right now

Let's go home and get stoned

We could end up makin love instead of misery

Go home and get stoned

Cause the *** is so much better when you're mad at me

You wear me out (We could end up makin love instead of misery)

But it's alright now

Lets go home and get stoned

We could end up makin love instead of misery

Go home and get stoned

Cause the *** is so much better when you're mad at me

Go home and get stoned

We could end up making love instead of misery

Go home and get stoned

Cause the *** is so much better when you're mad at me

You wear me out

(We could end up makin love instead of misery)

But it's all right now

(Cause the *** is so much better when you're mad at me)

Lets go home and get stoned

Lets go home and get stoned

Lets go home and get stoned

Lets go home and get stoned

J Giels Band - **** on the Wall

Now some people think the world is what it ain't

To some I'm a sinner, to others a saint

Some folks say the world ain't what is is

All I know is I just got to take a wiz

Where am I goin' and where have I been

My head's in the clouds and my tail's in a spin

Jumpin' out of planes for the thrill of it all

Then I bounce back and take a **** on the wall

Politics - Shmolitics

They oughta save their breath

Mean streak - blue streak

They sentence me to death

Harangue me from a tree

Twist and shout until I crawl

Do the flip - do the flop

**** On The Wall

Well the Yanks hate the Reds

And the Greeks hate the Turks

I really hate to say it

But they're all a bunch of jerks

Seems like everybody's shakin'

'Cause the big one's 'bout to fall

I'm just tryin' to hold it steady while I

**** on the wall
