Some ideas for the single ladies in what to look for in a man

Night Prowler

AC/DC

Somewhere a clock strikes midnight

And there's a full moon in the sky

You hear a dog bark in the distance

You hear someone's baby cry

A rat runs down the alley

And a chill runs down your spine

And someone walks across your grave

And you wish the sun would shine

Cause no one's gonna warn you

And no one's gonna yell attack

And you don't feel the steel

Till it's hangin' out your back

I'm your night prowler, asleep in the day

Night prowler, get outta my way

I'm the prowler, watch out tonight

Yes I'm your night prowler, when you turn out the light

Too scared to turn your light out

Cause there's somethin' on your mind

Was that a noise outside the window

What's that shadow on the blind

As you lie there naked

Like a body in a tomb

Suspended animation as I slip into your room

I'm your night prowler, asleep in the day

Night prowler, get outta my way

Look out for the night prowler, watch out tonight

Yes I'm the night prowler, when you turn out the light

I'm your night prowler, asleep in the day

Yes I'm your night prowler, get outta my way

Look out for the night prowler, watch out tonight

Yes I'm your night prowler, when you turn out the light

I'm your night prowler, break down your door

I'm your night prowler, crawling across your floor

I'm the night prowler, make a mess of you, yes I will

Night prowler

And I'm telling this to you

There ain't nothing

There ain't nothing

Nothing you can do

You don't mess around with Jim

Jim Croce

Uptown's got its hustlers

The Bowry's got its bums

Forty-second street's got Big Jim Walker

He's a pool-shootin' son of a gun

Yeah, he's big and dumb as a man can come

But he's stronger than a country hoss

And when the bad folks all get together at night

You know they all call Big Jim "boss"

Just because

And they say

You don't tug on Superman's cape

You don't spit into the wind

You don't pull the mask of the old Lone Ranger

You don't mess around with Jim

Ah-doo-doo, doo-da

Da-dee dee and dee-dee-dee

Well, out of South Alabama come a country boy

He said, I'm lookin' for a man named Jim

I am a pool-shootin' boy, my name is Willie McCoy

But back home they call me Slim

Hey, I'm lookin' for the king of forty-second street

He's drivin' a drop-top Cadillac

And last week he took all my money

And it may sound funny

But I come to get my money back

And everybody (say, Jack -- don't you know that...)

You don't tug on Superman's cape

You don't spit into the wind

You don't pull the mask of the old Lone Ranger

And you don't mess around with Jim

Ah-doo-doo, doo-da

Da-dee dee and dee-dee-dee

Well a hush fell over the pool room

When Jimmy come boppin' in off the street

And when the cuttin' was done

the only part that wasn't ******

Was the soles of the big man's feet

He was cut in 'bout a hundred places

And he was shot in a couple more

And you better believe

They sung a different kind of story

When Big Jim hit the floor

And now they say

You don't tug on Superman's cape

You don't spit into the wind

You don't pull the mask of the old Lone Ranger

And you don't mess around with Slim

The moral of this story.. Live by the sword, die by the sword or might does not equal right.

Jim Croce - Bad bad Leroy Brown

Well the south side of chicago

Is the baddest part of town

And if you go down there

You better just beware

Of a man named leroy brown

Now leroy more than trouble

You see he stand bout six foot four

All the downtown ladies call him treetop lover

All the mens just call him sir

And its bad, bad leroy brown

The baddest man in the whole **** town

Badder than old king kong

And meaner than a junkyard dog

Now leroy he a gambler

And he like his fancy clothes

And he like to wave his diamond rings

In front of everybodys nose

He got a custom continental

He got an eldorado too

He got a 32 gun in his pocket for fun

He got a razor in his shoe

And its bad, bad leroy brown

The baddest man in the whole **** town

Badder than old king kong

And meaner than a junkyard dog

Well friday bout a week ago

Leroy shootin dice

And at the edge of the bar

Sat a girl named doris

And ooh that girl looked nice

Well he cast his eyes upon her

And the trouble soon began

And leroy brown learned a lesson

bout messin with the wife of a jealous man

And its bad, bad leroy brown

The baddest man in the whole damned town

Badder than old king kong

And meaner than a junkyard dog,

Well the two men took to fightin

And when they pulled them from the floor

Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle

With a couple of pieces gone

And its bad, bad leroy brown

The baddest man in the whole **** town

Badder than old king kong

And meaner than a junkyard dog

Slipping Away

Black Sabbath

Slipping away, just a heartbeat from disaster

Nothing could make me stay, close your eyes and I'll be gone

Turn the page, yeah, time to start another story

Slipping away, slipping away, time to move along

No reason to stay

oh, when I'm slipping away

Take a look at yourself, you've been running in a circle

Round and round you go, you're a start without an end

Start a new life, yeah, from the city of the gypsies

Running away, slipping away, right behind the plow

Slipping away

Slipping away

Nobody to pay

look out, 'cause I'm slipping away

Rockin' the glass, I won't leave you my reflection

A future without a past, no more road to take me back

Come if you will, just don't question my direction

Running away, slipping away, we can find the sun

Slipping away

Slipping away

got nobody to pay

and you're slippin' away

No more running in a circle

it's time to move along

round, round, round we go

a start without an end

so I'm slipping away

Slipping away

Mama I'm coming home - Ozzie Osbourne

Times have changed and times are strange

Here I come, but I aint the same

Mama, Im coming home

Times gone by seem to be

You could have been a better friend to me

Mama, Im coming home

You took me in and you drove me out

Yeah, you had me hypnotized

Lost and found and turned aroound

By the fire in your eyes

You made me cry, you told me lies

But I cant stand to say goodbye

Mama, Im coming home

I could be right, I could be wrong

Hurts so bad, its been so long

Mama, Im coming home

Selfish love yeah were both alone

The ride before the fall

But Im gonna take this heart of stone

I just got to have it all

Ive seen your face a hundred times

Everyday weve been apart

I dont care about the sunshine, yeah

cause mama, mama, Im coming home

Im coming home

You took me in and you drove me out

Yeah, you had me hypnotized

Lost and found and turned around

By the fire in your eyes

Massachusetts

Bee Gees

Feel I'm goin back to Massachusetts,

Somethings telling me I must go home.

And the lights all went out in Massachusetts

The day I left her standing on her own.

Tried to hitch a ride to San Francisco,

Gotta do the things I wanna do.

And the lights all went out in Massachusetts

They brought me back to see my way with you.

Talk about the life in Massachusetts,

Speak about the people I have seen,

And the lights all went out in Massachusetts

And Massachusetts is one place I have seen.

I will remember Massachusetts...

Billy Joel - You May Be Right

For wez and atlantic

Friday night I crashed your party

Saturday I said I'm sorry

Sunday came and trashed me out again

I was only having fun

Wasn't hurting anyone

And we all enjoyed the weekend for a change

I've been stranded in the combat zone

I walked through Bedford Stuy alone

Even rode my motorcycle in the rain

And you told me not to drive

But I made it home alive

So you said that only proves that I'm insane

You may be right

I may be crazy

But it just might be a lunatic you're looking for

Turn out the light

Don't try to save me

You may be wrong for all I know

But you may be right

Remember how I found you there

Alone in your electric chair

I told you dirty jokes until you smiled

You were lonely for a man

I said take me as I am

'Cause you might enjoy some madness for awhile

Now think of all the years you tried to

Find someone to satisfy you

I might be as crazy as you say

If I'm crazy then it's true

That it's all because of you

And you wouldn't want me any other way

You may be right

I may be crazy

But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for

It's too late to fight

It's too late to change me

You may be wrong for all I know

But you may be right

You may be right

I may be crazy

But it just might be a lunatic you're looking for

Turn out the light

Don't try to save me

You may be wrong for all I know

But you may be right

You may be wrong but you may be right

You may be wrong but you may be right

Melanie - Brand New Key

I rode my bicycle past your window last night

I roller skated to your door at daylight

It almost seems like you're avoiding me

I'm okay alone, but you got something I need

Well, I got a brand new pair of roller skates

You got a brand new key

I think that we should get together and try them out you see

I been looking around awhile

You got something for me

Oh! I got a brand new pair of roller skates

You got a brand new key

I ride my bike, I roller skate, don't drive no car

Don't go too fast, but I go pretty far

For somebody who don't drive

I been all around the world

Some people say, I done all right for a girl

Well, I got a brand new pair of roller skates

You got a brand new key

I think that we should get together and try them out you see

I been looking around awhile

You got something for me

Oh! I got a brand new pair of roller skates

You got a brand new key

I asked your mother if you were at home

She said, yes .. but you weren't alone

Oh, sometimes I think that you're avoiding me

I'm okay alone, but you've got something I need

Well, I got a brand new pair of roller skates

You got a brand new key

I think that we should get together and try them out to see

La la la la la la la la, la la la la la la

Oh! I got a brand new pair of roller skates

You got a brand new key

Gettin in Tune - The Who

I'm singing this note 'cause it fits in well

With the chords I'm playing

I can't pretend there's any meaning here

Or in the things I'm saying

But I'm in tune

Right in tune

I'm in tune

And I'm gonna tune

Right in on you

Right in on you

Right in on you

I get a little tired of having to say

"Do you come here often?"

But when I look in your eyes and see the harmonies

And the heartaches soften

I'm getting in tune

Right in tune

I'm in tune

And I'm gonna tune

Right in on you (right in on you)

Right in on you (right in on you)

Right in on you

I've got it all here in my head

There's nothing more needs to be said

I'm just bangin' on my old piano

I'm getting in tune with the straight and narrow

Getting in tune with the straight and narrow

Yeah, I'm getting in tune with the straight and narrow

(Getting in tune with the straight and narrow)

I'm singing this note 'cause it fits in well

With the way I'm feeling

There's a symphony that I hear in your heart

Sets my head a-reeling

But I'm in tune

Right in tune

I'm in tune

And I'm gonna tune

Right in on you

Right in on you

Right in on you

Baby, with you

Baby, with you

Baby, with you

Baby, with you

Baby, with you

I've got it all here in my head

There's nothing more needs to be said

I'm just bangin' on my old piano

I'm getting in tune with the straight and narrow

Getting in tune with the straight and narrow

The Rolling Stones - Waiting on a Friend

Watching girls go passing by

It aint the latest thing

Im just standing in a doorway

Im just trying to make some sense

Out of these girls go passing by

The tales they tell of men

Im not waiting on a lady

Im just waiting on a friend

A smile relieves a heart that grieves

Remember what I said

Im not waiting on a lady

Im just waiting on a friend

Im just waiting on a friend

Dont need a *****

I dont need no booze

Dont need a virgin priest

But I need someone I can cry to

I need someone to protect

Making love and breaking hearts

It is a game for youth

But Im not waiting on a lady

Im just waiting on a friend

You're no different

Ozzy

How many times can you put me down

'Till in your heart you realize

If you chose to criticise you choose your enemies

Everything that I say and do

In your eyes is always wrong

Tell me where do I belong in a sick society

You're no different to me, yeah

You're no different, no different to me

Look at yourself instead o' looking at me

With accusation in your eyes

Do you want me crucified for my profanity

Concealing your crimes behind a grandeur of lies

Tell me where do I begin

If you think you're without sin be the first to cast the stone

You're no different to me, yeah

You're no different, no different to me

You're no different to me, yeah

You're no different, no different to me

Can't you see, can't you see

You're no different to me

Won't you see, won't you see

You're no different to me

Living my life in a way that I choose

You say I should apologize

Is that envy in your eyes reflecting jealousy

Tell me the truth and I'll admit to my guilt

If you'll try and understand

Is that blood that's on your hand from your democrocy

You're no different to me, yeah

You're no different, no different to me

You're no different to me, yeah

You're no different, no different to me

Goodbye blue sky

Pink Floyd

"Look mummy, the small plane up in the sky"

Oooooooo ooo ooo ooooh

Did you see the frightened ones

Did you hear the falling bombs

Did you ever wonder

Why we had to run for shelter

When the promise of a brave new world

Unfurled beneath a clear blue sky

Oooooooo ooo ooooo oooh

Did you see the frightened ones

Did you hear the falling bombs

The flames are all long gone

But the pain lingers on

Goodbye blue sky

Goodbye blue sky

Goodbye

Goodbye

The Message - Grand Master Flash

Standing on the front stoop, hangin' out the window

Watching all the cars go by, roaring as the breezes blow

Crazy lady, livin' in a bag

Eating out of garbage piles, used to be a ***-hag

Said she danced the tango, skipped the light fandango

A Zircon princess seems to have lost her senses

Down at the peepshow, watching all the creeps

So she can tell the stories to the girls back home

She went to the city and got social security

She had to get a pimp, she couldn't make it on her own

Don't push me, cause I'm close to the edge

I'm trying not to loose my head

It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder

How I keep from going under

My brother's doing bad stole my mother's T.V.

Says she watches to much, is just not healthy

All my children in the daytime, Dallas at night

Can't even see the game or the Sugar Ray fight

Bill collectors they ring my phone

And scare my wife when I'm not home

Got a *** education, double-digit inflation

Can't take the train to the job, there's a strike at the station

Neon King Kong standin' on my back

Can't stop to turn around, broke my sacroiliac

Midrange, migrained, cancered membrane

Sometimes I think I'm going insane, I swear I might hijack a plane!

Don't push me, cause I'm close to the edge

I'm trying not to loose my head

It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder

How I keep from going under

My son said daddy I don't wanna go to school

Cause the teacher's a jerk, he must think I'm a fool

And all the kids smoke reefer, I think it'd be cheaper

If I just got a job, learned to be a street sweeper

I dance to the beat, shuffle my feet

Wear a shirt and tie and run with the creeps

Cause it's all about money, ain't a **** thing funny

You got to have a car in this land of milk and honey

They push that girl in front of a train

Took her to a doctor, sowed the arm on again

Stabbed that man, right in his heart

Gave him a transfer for a brand new start

I can't walk through the park, cause it's crazy after the dark

Keep my hand on the gun, cause they got me on the run

I feel like an outlaw, broke my last glass jaw

Hear them say you want some more, livin' on a seasaw

Don't push me, cause I'm close to the edge

I'm trying not to loose my head, say what

It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder

How I keep from going under

It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder

How I keep from going under

It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder

How I keep from going under

It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder

How I keep from going under

A child is born, wih no state of mind

Blind to the ways of mankind

*** is smiling on you but he?s frowning too

Cause only *** knows what you go through

You grow in the ghetto, living second rate

And your eyes will sing a song of deep hate

The places you play and where you stay

Looks like one great big alley way

You'll admire all the number book takers;

thugs, pimps and pushers and the big money makers

Driving big cars, spending twenties and tens

And you wanna grow up to be just like them

Smugglers, scrambles, burglars, gamblers

Pickpockets, peddlers and even pan-handlers

You say I'm cool, I'm no fool

But then you wind up dropping out of high school

Now you're unemployed, or non-void

Walking around like you're pretty boy Floyd

Turned stickup kid, look what you done did

Got send up for a eight year bid

Now your man hood is took and you're a Maytag

Spend the next two years as an undercover ***

Being used and abused, and served like ****

Till one day you was find hung dead in a cell

It was plain to see that your life was lost

You was cold and your body swung back and forth

But now your eyes sing the sad, sad song

Of how you lived so fast and died so young

so

Don't push me, cause I'm close to the edge

I'm trying not to loose my head

It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder

How I keep from going under

It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder

How I keep from going under

Two Suns in the Sunset (Waters)

Pink Floyd

In my rear view mirror the sun is going down

Sinking behind bridges in the road

And I think of all the good things

That we have left undone

And I suffer premonitions

Confirmed suspicions

Of the holocaust to come.

The rusty wire that holds the cork

That keeps the anger in

Gives way

And suddenly it's day again.

The sun is in the east

Even though the day is done.

Two suns in the sunset

Hmmmmmmmmmm

Could be the human race is run.

Like the moment when the brakes lock

And you slide towards the big truck

"Oh no!"

"[scream] Daddy, Daddy!"

You stretch the frozen moments with your fear.

And you'll never hear their voices

And you'll never see their faces

You have no recourse to the law anymore.

And as the windshield melts

My tears evaporate

Leaving only charcoal to defend.

Finally I understand the feelings of the few.

Ashes and diamonds

Foe and friend

We were all equal in the end.

"...and now the weather. Tomorrow will be cloudy with scattered showers

spreading from the east ... with an expected high of 4000 degrees

Celsius"

Grease (Is the word)

Barry Gibb

I solve my problems and I see the light

We gotta lovin' thing, we gotta feed it right

There ain't no danger we can go too far

We start believing now that we can be what we are

Grease is the word

They think our love is just a growing pain

Why don't they understand, It's just a crying shame

Their lips are lying only real is real

We start to find right now we got to be what we feel

Chorus:

Grease is the word (is the word that you heard)

It's got groove, it's got meaning

Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion

Grease is the way we are feeling

We take the pressure and we throw away

Conventionality belongs to yesterday

There is a chance that we can make it so far

We start believing now that we can be who we are

Chorus

This is a life of illusion

Wrapped up in trouble

Laced with confusion

What are we doing here?

We take the pressure and we throw away

Conventionality belongs to yesterday

There is a chance that we can make it so far

We start believing now that we can be who we are

Chorus (x2)

Nothing to say

Soundgarden

Nothing, nothing, nothing but the one thing

Someone said my words are out of balance

Nothing to say, you've got nothing to say

Dying words I bury everyday

Nothing to say, I've got nothing to say

Nothing but the one thing

You've got nothing, nothing to say

Nothing but the one thing

Big bad word spell it with four letters

Nothing to say, you've got nothing to say

Oh my ***, your words are out of balance

Nothing to say, you've got nothing to say

Nothing but the one thing

Nothing, nothing

You've got nothing, nothing to say

Nothing but the one thing

Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing

The day I tried to live

Soundgarden

I woke the same as any other day

Except a voice was in my head

It said seize the day, pull the trigger, drop the blade

And watch the rolling heads

The day I tried to live

I stole a thousand beggar's change

And gave it to the rich

The day I tried to win

I dangled from the power lines

And let the martyrs stretch

Singing

One more time around

Might do it

One more time around

Might make it

One more time around

Might do it

One more time around

The day I tried to live

Words you say never seem

To live up to the ones

Inside your head

The lives we make

Never seem to ever get us anywhere

But dead

The day I tried to live

I wallowed in the blood and mud with

All the other pigs

I woke the same as any other day you know

I should have stayed in bed

The day I tried to live

I wallowed in the blood and mud with

All the other pigs

And I learned that I was a liar

I learned that I was a liar

I learned that I was a liar

I learned that I was a liar

I learned that I was a liar

Just like you
