That Smell


Lenny Skinny

Whiskey bottles, and brand new cars

Oak tree you're in my way

There's too much coke and too much smoke

Look what's going on inside you

(Chorus)

Ooooh that smell

Can't you smell that smell

Ooooh that smell

The smell of death surrounds you

Angel of darkness is upon you

Stuck a needle in your arm

So take another toke, have a blow for your nose

One more drink fool, will drown you

(Chorus)

Ooooh that smell

Can't you smell that smell

Ooooh that smell

The smell of death surrounds you

Now they call you Prince Charming

Can't speak a word when you're full of 'ludes

Say you'll be all right come tomorrow

But tomorrow might not be here for you

(Chorus)

Ooooh that smell

Can't you smell that smell

Ooooh that smell

The smell of death surrounds you

Hey, you're a fool you

Stick them needles in your arm

I know I been there before

One little problem that confronts you

Got a monkey on your back

Just one more fix, Lord might do the trick

One **** of a price for you to get your kicks

(Chorus x2)

Ooooh that smell

Can't you smell that smell

Ooooh that smell

The smell of death surrounds you

Ooooh that smell

Can't you smell that smell

Ooooh that smell

The smell of death surrounds you

Ballad of Curtis Loew


Lenny Skinny

Well I used to wake the morning before the rooster crowed

Searching for soda bottles to get myself some dough

Brought em down to the corner, down to the country store

Cash em in and give my money to a man named curtis loew

Old curt was a black man with white curly hair

When he had a fifth of wine he did not have a care

He used to own an old dobro, used to play it across his knee

Id give old curt my money, hed play all day for me

(chorus)

Play me a song curtis loew, curtis loew

I got your drinking money, tune up your dobro

People said he was useless, them people are the fools

cause curtis loew was the finest picker to ever play the blues

He looked to be sixty, and maybe I was ten

Mama used to whip me but Id go see him again

Id clap my hands, stomp my feets, try to stay in time

Hed play me a song or two

Then take another drink of wine.

Chorus

Yes sir

On the day old curtis died, nobody came to pray

Ol preacher said some words, and they chunked him in the clay

But he lived a lifetime playin the black mans blues

And on the day he lost his life, thats all he had to lose

Play me a song curtis loew, hey curtis loew

I wish that you was here so everyone would know

People said he was useless, them people all are fools

cause curtis youre the finest picker to ever play the blues

Saturday Night Special


Lenny Skinny

Two feets they come a creepin

Like a black cat do

And two bodies are lyin naked

Creeper think he got nothin to lose

So he creeps into this house, yeah

And unlocks the door

And while a man reaching for his trousers

Shoots him full of .38 holes

(chorus)

Its a saturday night special

Got a barrel thats blue and cold

Aint no good for nothin

But put a man six feet in a hole

Big jims been drinkin whiskey

And playing poker on a losin night

Pretty soon, big jim starts a thinkin

Somebody been cheatin and lyin

So big jim commences to fightin

I wouldnt tell you no lie

And big jim done grab his pistol

Shot his friend right between the eyes

(chorus)

Hand guns are made for killin

Aint no good for nothin else

And if you like your whiskey

You might even shoot yourself

So why dont we dump em people

To the bottom of the sea

Before some fool come around here

Wanna shoot either you or me

[snafu]

I guess the dance is over now

So you just courstey, and I'll bow

And ask the band to play us Auld Lang Syne

And I'll just take whats left of me, right bak to where it used to be

And you'll go sail your magic carpet far across the sky

CHORUS

I wish I could have made it more like the movies for ya

Some pretty technicolour way thats never been

Im sorry when i kissed you, you only heard me whisper

You never got to hear those violins

Did ya girl?

No you never got to hear those violins, no

The castles that you built so high, were just to steep for me to climb

And I guess these dirty streets of mine, were just to rough for you

I wish I coulda helped you see

Just one of your sweet childhood dreams,

But though I tried I could not make not one of them come true

CHORUS

Ohhhhhhhhhh Im sorry when I kissed you, you only heard me whisper

You never got to hear those violins

No you never got to hear those violins

[snafu]

When your body's had enough of me

And I'm layin' flat out on the floor

When you think I've loved you all I can

I'm gonna love you a little bit more

Come on over here and lay by my side

I've got to be touchin' you

Let me rub your tired shoulders

The way I used to do

Look into my eyes and give me that smile

The one that always turns me on

And let me take your hair down

'Cause we're stayin' up to greet the sun

And when your body's had enough of me

And I'm layin' flat out on the floor

When you think I've loved you all I can

I'm gonna love you a little bit more

Got to say a few things that have been on my mind

And you know where my mind has been

I guess I learned my lessons

And now's the time to begin

So if you're feelin alright and you're ready for me

I know that I'm ready for you

We better get it on now

'Cause we got a whole life to live through

And when your body's had enough of me

And I'm layin' flat on the floor

When you think I've loved you all I can

I'm gonna love you a little bit more

And when your body's had enough of me

And I'm layin' flat out on the floor

Night falls on the city, baby feels the beat

Slick and sexy angel of the street

The queen of all the night birds watch her when she walks

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

You know what she's thinking about and it turns you inside out

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

Night time in the city, magic in the air

The action starts at midnight, she'll be there

The queen of all the night birds, a player in the dark

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

You know what she's thinking about and it turns you inside out

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

You know what she's thinking about and it turns you inside out

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

She won't say nothing

She don't say nothing .........

Bell Bottom Blues


Eric Clapton

Bell bottom blues, you made me cry.

I dont want to lose this feeling.

And if I could choose a place to die

It would be in your arms.

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?

Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?

Id gladly do it because

I dont want to fade away.

Give me one more day, please.

I dont want to fade away.

In your heart I want to stay.

Its all wrong, but its all right.

The way that you treat me baby.

Once I was strong but I lost the fight.

You wont find a better loser.

Chorus

Chorus

Bell bottom blues, dont say goodbye.

Im sure were gonna meet again,

And if we do, dont you be surprised

If you find me with another lover.

Chorus

I dont want to fade away.

Give me one more day please.

I dont want to fade away.

In your heart I long to stay.

Layla


Eric Clapton

What'll you do when you get lonely

And nobody's waiting by your side?

You've been running and hiding much too long.

You know it's just your foolish pride.

Layla, you've got me on my knees.

Layla, I'm begging, darling please.

Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind.

I tried to give you consolation

When your old man had let you down.

Like a fool, I fell in love with you,

Turned my whole world upside down.

Chorus

Let's make the best of the situation

Before I finally go insane.

Please don't say we'll never find a way

And tell me all my love's in vain.

Chorus

White Room


Cream

In the white room with black curtains near the station.

Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.

Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes.

Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.

Ill wait in this place where the sun never shines;

Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.

You said no strings could secure you at the station.

Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.

I walked into such a sad time at the station.

As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning.

Ill wait in the queue when the trains come back;

Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.

At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.

Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.

Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.

Shes just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.

Ill sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;

Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.

No Rain


Blind Melon

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain

I like watchin' the puddles gather rain

And all I can do is just pour some tea for two

and speak my point of view

But it's not sane, It's not sane

I just want some one to say to me

I'll always be there when you wake

Ya know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today

So stay with me and I'll have it made

And I don't understand why I sleep all day

And I start to complain that there's no rain

And all I can do is read a book to stay awake

And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape

escape......escape......escape......

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain

ya don't like my point of view

ya think I'm insane

Its not sane......it's not sane

Nirvana

Load up on guns

Bring your friends

Its fun to lose

And to pretend

Shes overboard

Myself assured

I know I know

A dirty word

Hello (x 16)

With the lights out its less dangerous

Here we are now

Entertain us

I feel stupid and contagious

Here we are now

Entertain us

A mulatto

An albino

A mosquito

My libido

Yea

Im worse at what I do best

And for this gift I feel blessed

Our little group has always been

And always will until the end

Hello (x 16)

With the lights out its less dangerous

Here we are now

Entertain us

I feel stupid and contagious

Here we are now

Entertain us

A mulatto

An albino

A mosquito

My libido

Yea

And I forget

Just what it takes

And yet I guess it makes me smile

I found it hard

Its hard to find

Oh well, whatever, nevermind

Hello (x 16)

With the lights out its less dangerous

Here we are now

Entertain us

I feel stupid and contagious

Here we are now

Entertain us

A mulatto

Heart Shaped Box


Nirvana

She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak

Ive been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks

Ive been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap

I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn back (alt: ... when you turn black)

Hey! wait!

Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Hey! wait! (alt: hate! haight!)

Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Hey! wait!

Ive got a new complaint

Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Cut myself on angels hair and babys breath

Broken hymen of your highness Im left black

Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back

Hey! wait!

Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Hey! wait!

Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Hey! wait!

Wild World


Cat Stevens

Now that I've lost everything to you

You say you wanna start something new

And it's breakin' my heart you're leavin'

Baby, I'm grievin'

But if you wanna leave, take good care

I hope you have a lot of nice things to wear

But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there

[Chorus:]

Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world

It's hard to get by just upon a smile

Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world

I'll always remember you like a child, girl

You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do

And it's breakin' my heart in two

Because I never wanna see you a sad girl

Don't be a bad girl

But if you wanna leave, take good care

I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there

But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

[Chorus]

Baby, I love you

But if you wanna leave, take good care

I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there

But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

Morning has Broken


Cat Stevens

Morning has broken, like the first morning

Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird

Praise for the singing, praise for the morning

Praise for the springing fresh from the world

Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven

Like the first dewfall, on the first grass

Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden

Sprung in completeness where his feet pass

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning

Born of the one light, eden saw play

Praise with elation, praise every morning

***'s recreation of the new day

Godzilla


Blue Oyster Cult

With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound

He pulls the spitting high tension wires down

Helpless people on a subway train

Scream bug-eyed as he looks in on them

He picks up a bus and he throws it back down

As he wades through the buildings toward the center of town

Oh no, they say hes got to go

Go go godzilla, yeah

Oh no, there goes tokyo

Go go godzilla, yeah

Rinji news o moshiagemasu!

Rinji news o moshiagemasu!

Godzilla ga ginza hoomen e mukatte imasu!

Daishkyu hinan e kudasai!

Daishkyu hinan e kudasai!

Oh no, they say hes got to go

Go go godzilla, yeah

Oh no, there goes tokyo

Go go godzilla, yeah

History shows again and again

How nature points up the folly of men

Don't Fear the Reaper


Blue Oyster Cult

All our times have come

Here but now they're gone

Seasons don't fear the reaper

Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain

We can be like they are

Come on baby... Don't fear the Reaper

Baby take my hand... Don't fear the Reaper

We'll be able to fly... Don't fear the Reaper

Baby I'm your man...

Valentine is done

Here but now they're gone

Romeo and Juliet

Are together in eternity...

Romeo and Juliet

40,000 men and women everyday... Like Romeo and

Juliet

40,000 men and women everyday... Redefine

happiness

Another 40,000 coming everyday...We can be like

they are

Come on baby... Don't fear the Reaper

Baby take my hand... Don't fear the Reaper

We'll be able to fly... Don't fear the Reaper

Baby I'm your man...

Love of two is one

Here but now they're gone

Came the last night of sadness

And it was clear we couldn't go on

The door was open and the wind appeared

The candles blew and then disappeared

The curtains flew then he appeared

Saying don't be afraid

Come on baby... And we had no fear

And we ran to him... Then we started to fly

We looked backward and said goodbye

We had become like they are

We had taken his hand

We had become like they are

Come on baby...don't fear the reaper

Veteren of the Psychic Wars


B.O.C.

You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars

Ive been living on the edge so long

Where the winds of limbo roar

And Im young enough to look at

And far too old to see

All the scars are on the inside

Im not sure if theres anything left of me

Dont let these shakes go on

Its time we had a break from it

Its time we had some leave

Weve been living in the flames

Weve been eating up our brains

Oh, please dont let theses shakes go on

You ask me why Im weary, why I cant speak to you

You blame me for my silence

Say its time I changed and grew

But the wars still going on dear

And theres no end that I know

And I cant say if were ever...

I cant say if were ever gonna to be free

Dont let these shakes go on

Its time we had a break from it

Its time we had some leave

Weve been living in the flames

Weve been eating out our brains

Oh, please dont let theses shakes go on

You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars

My energys spent at last

And my armor is destroyed

I have used up all my weapons and Im helpless and bereaved

Wounds are all Im made of

Did I hear you say that this is victory?

Dont let these shakes go on

Its time we had a break from it

Send me to the rear

Where the tides of madness swell

And been sliding into ****

Oh, please dont let shakes go on

Dont let these shakes go on

Dont let these shakes go on

Share the land


Guess Who

Have you been around

Have you done your share of coming down

On different things that people do

Have you been aware

You got brothers and sisters who care

About what's gonna happen to you

In a year from now...

Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand

Maybe I'll be there to share the land

That they'll be giving away

When we all live together.

Did you pay your dues

Did you read the news

This morning when the paper landed in your yard

Do you know their names

Can you play their games

And coming down a bit too hard...

Shake your hand, share the land

Shake your hand, share the land

You know I'll be standing by

To help you if you worry....

[trailing off]

No more sadness, no more sorrow, no more bad times

every day coming sunshine, everyday everybody laughing

walking together by the river, walking together and

laughing, everybody singing together, everybody singing and

laughing, good times good times, everybody walking by the

river now, walking singing talking smiling laughing loving

each other.

No Sugar Tonight


Guess Who

{"No Sugar Tonight"}

Lonely feelin' deep inside

Find a corner where I can hide

Silent footsteps crowdin' me

Sudden darkness, but I can see

No sugar tonight in my coffee

No sugar tonight in my tea

No sugar to stand beside me

No sugar to run with me

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

Da-un-do-dow dow no no

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

Da-un-do-dow dow

In the silence of her mind

Quiet movements, well, I can find

Grabbin' for me with her eyes

Now I'm fallin' from her skies

No sugar tonight in my coffee

No sugar tonight in my tea

No sugar to stand beside me

No sugar to run with me

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

Da-un-do-dow dow un-dow-dow

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

Da-un-do-dow dow

{"New Mother Nature"}

Jocko says yes and I believe him

When we talk about the things I say

She hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him

When they're standin' in each other's way

You're driven back now to places you've been to

You're wonderin' what you're gonna find

You know you've been wrong but it won't be long

Before you leave 'em all far behind

'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over

It's the new splendid lady come to call

It's the new Mother Nature takin' over

She's gettin' us all

She's gettin' us all

Jocko said no when I came back last time

It's lookin' like I lost a friend

No use callin' 'cause the sky is fallin'

And I'm gettin' pretty near the end

A smoke-filled room in a corner basement

The situation must be right

A bag o' goodies and a bottle o' wine

We're gonna get it on right tonight

'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over

It's the new splendid lady come to call

It's the new Mother Nature takin' over

She's gettin' us all

She's gettin' us all

{1st verse of "No Sugar Tonight" sung simultaneously with

1st verse of "New Mother Nature"}

Lonely feelin'

Jocko says yes and I believe him

Deep inside

When we talk about the things I say

Find a corner

She hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him

Where I can hide

When they're standin' in each other's way

Silent footsteps

You're driven back now to places you've been to

Crowdin' me

You're wonderin' what you're gonna find

Sudden darkness

You know you've been wrong and it won't be long

But I can see

Before you leave 'em all far behind

'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over

It's the new splendid lady come to call

It's the new Mother Nature takin' over

She's gettin' us all

She's gettin' us all

Hand Me Down World


Guess Who

Anybody here see the noise, see the fear and commotion

I think we missed it

Anybody here see the love, see the hate, the emotion

Don't give me no hand me down shoes

Don't give me no hand me down love

Don't give me no hand me down world

Well, I think we missed it

Anybody here see the sky weepin' tears for the ocean

Don't give me no hand me down shoes

Don't give me no hand me down love

Don't give me no hand me down world

I got one already

Anybody here see the fuzzy-wuzzy lovin' cup explosion

I think we missed it

Anybody here see the changing of the year and emotion

Don't give me no hand me down shoes

Don't give me no hand me down love

Don't give me no hand me down world

I got one already

(Don't give me no hand me down world)

BREAK IT TO THEM GENTLY

Album : Dream Of A Child

Burton Cummings - 1978

Break it to them gently when you tell my Mom and Dad

When you see my baby sister be as kind as you can

And break it to my Grandma, who said "That boy's wild and bad"

Break it to them gently when you tell them that I won't be coming

home again

Cause I'm running with a gun and it isn't any fun as a fugitive

Fightin for my life and I don't know if I'll make it alone

Running with a gun and it isn't any fun as a fugitive

*** I wanna go home

Lord I wish I was home

When you see my lady with the twinkle in her eyes

Tell it to her softly and hold her if she cries

Tell her that I love her and I will til the day I die

Tell it to her gently when you tell her that I won't be coming home

again

(chorus)

I got in too deep with strangers

Thinking they could help me find my way

But nobody warned me of the dangers

And it's always the young and foolish that have to pay

So break it to them gently when you tell my Mom and Dad

Thank them for the good years and all the lovin that I had

And break it to my Grandma, who said "the boy is wild and bad"

Break it to them gently when you tell 'em that I won't be comin home

again

(chorus)

You gotta break it to them gently

Gotta really try to roll 'em

Gotta break it to them gently

Gotta really try to soothe them

Gotta really try to roll 'em

You gotta roll it to my Mother

Gotta roll it to my Grandma

Gotta roll the old lady

Roll it to my Grandma, she's **** near eighty

Roll the old lady

Hey Lawdy Mama


Steppenwolf

You'd like to show me all around

Thank you girl but I know this town

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

Don't you know they're all the same

Only difference is the name

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

Three motels, dusty cars

A movie show and a dozen bars

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

Only thing that I can say

Is we'll be here for just one day

Baby don't you know we're

Leavin' early in the mornin'

So long, I don't know we might be back next year

Baby it just might be never

Don't cha worry 'bout it

So long, good to know your smilin' face was here

This town is boring you to tears

Nothing in the world ever happens here

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

Don't you know you've got to help

Nothing ever happens by itself

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

If no one will share the load

Go pack your bags, hit the open road

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

Try to find someone like you

Hope will tell you what to do

Baby don't you know we're

Leavin' early in the mornin'

So long, I don't know we might be back next year

Baby it just might be never

Don't cha worry 'bout it

So long good to know your smilin' face was here

Magic Carpet Ride


Steppenwolf

I like to dream yes, yes, right between my sound machine

On a cloud of sound I drift in the night

Any place it goes is right

Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here

Well, you don't know what we can find

Why don't you come with me little girl

On a magic carpet ride

You don't know what we can see

Why don't you tell your dreams to me

Fantasy will set you free

Close your eyes girl

Look inside girl

Let the sound take you away

Last night I held Aladdin's lamp

And so I wished that I could stay

Before the thing could answer me

Well, someone came and took the lamp away

I looked around, a lousy candle's all I found

Well, you don't know what we can find

Why don't you come with me little girl

On a magic carpet ride

Well, you don't know what we can see

Why don't you tell your dreams to me

Fantasy will set you free

Close your eyes girl

Look inside girl

Let the sound take you away

The Pusher


Steppenwolf

You know I've smoked a lot of grass

O' Lord, I've popped a lot of pills

But I never touched nothin'

That my spirit could kill

You know, I've seen a lot of people walkin' 'round

With tombstones in their eyes

But the pusher don't care

Ah, if you live or if you die

*** ****, The Pusher

*** ****, I say The Pusher

I said *** ****, *** **** The Pusher man

You know the dealer, the dealer is a man

With the love grass in his hand

Oh but the pusher is a monster

Good ***, he's not a natural man

The dealer for a nickel

Lord, will sell you lots of sweet dreams

Ah, but the pusher ruin your body

Lord, he'll leave your, he'll leave your mind to scream

*** ****, The Pusher

*** ****, *** **** the Pusher

I said *** ****, ***, *** **** The Pusher man

Well, now if I were the president of this land

You know, I'd declare total war on The Pusher man

I'd cut him if he stands, and I'd shoot him if he'd run

Yes I'd kill him with my Bible and my razor and my gun

*** **** The Pusher

Gad **** The Pusher

I said *** ****, *** **** The Pusher man

Champagne Supernova - Oasis

How many special people change?

How many lives are living strange?

Where were you while we were getting high?

Slowly walking down the hall

Faster than a cannonball

Where were you while we were getting high?

Someday you will find me

Caught beneath the landslide

In a champagne supernova in the sky

Someday you will find me

Caught beneath the landslide

In a champagne supernova

A champagne supernova in the sky

Wake up the dawn and ask her why

A dreamer dreams, she never dies

Wipe that tear away now from your eye

Slowly walking down the hall

Faster than a cannonball

Where were you while we were getting high?

Someday you will find me

Caught beneath the landslide

In a champagne supernova in the sky

Someday you will find me

Caught beneath the landslide

In a champagne supernova in the sky

'Cuz we don't believe

That they're gonna get away from the summer

But you and I will never die

The world's still spinning around we don't know why

Why-why-why-why-i-i

How many special people change?

How many lives are living strange?

Where were you while we were getting high?

Slowly walking down the hall

Faster than a cannonball

Where were you while we were getting high?

Someday you will find me

Caught beneath the landslide

In a champagne supernova in the sky

'Cuz we don't believe

That they're gonna get away from the summer

But you and I will never die

The world's still spinning around we don't know why

Why-why-why-why-i-i

How many special people change?

How many lives are living strange?

Where were you while we were getting high?

We were getting high

She will be Loved


Maroon 5

Beauty queen of only eighteen

She had some trouble with herself

He was always there to help her

She always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles

And wound up at your door

I've had you so many times but somehow

I want more

I don't mind spending everyday

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved

She will be loved

Tap on my window knock on my door

I want to make you feel beautiful

I know I tend to get so insecure

It doesn't matter anymore

It's not always rainbows and butterflies

It's compromise that moves us along, yeah

My heart is full and my door's always open

You can come anytime you want

I don't mind spending everyday

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

I know where you hide

Alone in your car

Know all of the things that make you who you are

I know that goodbye means nothing at all

Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls

Tap on my window knock on my door

I want to make you feel beautiful

I don't mind spending everyday

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

[in the background]

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

Yeah

[softly]

I don't mind spending everyday

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Try so hard to say goodbye

Thats the way - Led Zeppelin

don't know how I'm gonna tell you

I can't play with you no more

I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me

My friend, the boy next door

I can't believe what people sayin'

You're gonna let your hair hang down

I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long

You're in the darker side of town

And when I'm out I see you walking

Why don't your eyes see me

Could it be you've found another game to play

What did mama say to me

That's the way

Oh, that's the way it ought to be

Yeah, yeah, mama said

That's the way it ought to stay, yeah, yeah

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh

And yesterday I saw you standing by the river

And weren't those tears that filled your eyes

And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying

Had they got you hypnotized

And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers

But all that lives is born to die

And so I say to you that nothing really matters

And all you do is stand and cry

I don't know what to say about it

When all you ears have turned away

But now's the time to look and look again at what you see

Is that the way it ought to stay

That's the way

That's the way it oughta be

Oh don't you know now

Mama said, mama said that's the way it's gonna stay, yeah

The Warning


Black Sabbath

Now the first day that I met ya

I was looking in the sky

When the sun turned all a blur

And the thunderclouds rolled by

The sea began to shiver

And the wind began to moan

It mustve been a sign for me

To leave you well alone

I was born without you, baby

But my feelings were a little bit too strong

You never said you love me

And I dont believe you can

cause I saw you in a dream

And you were with another man

You looked so cool and casual

And I tried to look the same

But now Ive got to know ya

Tell me who am I to blame?

I was born without you, baby

But my feelings were a little bit too strong

Now the whole wide world is movin

cause theres iron in my heart

I just cant keep from cryin

cause you say weve got to part

Sorrow grips my voice as I stand here all alone

And watch you slowly take away

A love Ive never known

I was born without you, baby

But my feelings were a little bit too strong

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-T_6IdXFuw&feature=related]YouTube - Black Sabbath-Warning[/ame]

Wicked World

The world today is such a wicked thing

Fighting going on between the human race

People give good wishes to all their friends

While people just across the sea are counting the dead

A politicians job they say is very high

For he has to choose whos got to go and die

They can put a man on the moon quite easy

While people here on earth are dying of old diseases

A woman goes to work every day after day

She just goes to work just to earn her pay

Child sitting crying by a life thats harder

He doesnt even know who is his father

Wasp/Behind the Wall of Sleep/basically/N.I.B.


Black Sabbath

Behind the wall of sleep

Precious cups within the flower

Deadly petals with strange power

Faces shine a deadly smile

Back up on you at your trial

Chill and numbs from head to toe

Icy sun with frosty glow

Whyd you go reaching your sorrow?

Whyd you go read no tomorrow

Feel your spirit rise with the priest

Feel your body falling to its knees

Take your walk of remorse

Take your body to a corpse

Take your body to a corpse

Take your body to a corpse

If you want all remorse

Take your body to a corpse

Now from darkness, there springs light

Wall of sleep is cold and bright

Wall of sleep is lying broken

Sun shines in, you are awoken

N.I.B.

Oh yeah!

Some people say my love cannot be true

Please believe me, my love, and Ill show you

I will give you those things you thought unreal

The sun, the moon, the stars all bear my seal

Oh yeah!

Follow me now and you will not regret

Leaving the life you led before we met

You are the first to have this love of mine

Forever with me till the end of time

Your love for me has just got to be real

Before you know the way Im going to feel

Im going to feel

Im going to feel

Oh yeah!

Now I have you with me, under my power

Our love grows stronger now with every hour

Look into my eyes, you will see who I am

My name is lucifer, please take my hand

Oh yeah!

Follow me now and you will not regret

Leaving the life you led before we met

You are the first to have this love of mine

Forever with me till the end of time

Your love for me has just got to be real

Before you know the way Im going to feel

Im going to feel

Im going to feel

Oh yeah!

Now I have you with me, under my power

Our love grows stronger now with every hour

Look into my eyes, you will see who I am

My name is lucifer, please take my hand
