The Beer Song

Weird Al Yankovic

Oh... what is the malt and liquor?


What gets you drunken quicker?



What comes in bottles or in cans? (Beer)



Can't get enough of it (Beer)



How we really love it (Beer)



Makes me think I'm a man (Beer)



I could kiss and hug it (Beer)



But I'd rather chug it (Beer)



Got my belly up to here (Beer)



I could not refuse a (Beer)



I could really use a beer, beer, beer


 


Beer, beer, beer, beer, beer, beer, beer, beer


 


I can't remember how much I have had



I drank a twelve-pack with my dad (BURP!)



That's my son the drunken manly stud



I'm proud to be his bud



Here have some pretzels



No, I'll call it quits



Those things give me the shlits (ha ha ha)


 


Drink with your family



Drink it with your friends



Drink till you're fat, stomach distends



Beer is liquid bread, it's good for you



We like to drink till we spew! Ew!



Who cares if we get fat?



I'll drink to that


 


As we sing once more...


 


What is the malt and liquor?



What gets you drunken quicker?



What comes in bottles or in cans? (Beer)



Can't get enough of it (Beer)



How we really love it (Beer)



Makes me think I'm a man (Beer)



I could kiss and hug it (Beer)



But I'd rather chug it (Beer)



Got my belly up to here (Beer)



Golly, I adore it! (Beer)



Come on dammit, pour it!



Do it for me, brew it for me



Feed it to me, speed it to me (Beer)



The most wonderful drink in the world



HOORAY!!! (BURP!)

The Pretender - Jackson Browne

I'm going to rent myself a house

In the shade of the freeway

I'm going to pack my lunch in the morning

And go to work each day

And when the evening rolls around

I'll go on home and lay my body down

And when the morning light comes streaming in

I'll get up and do it again

Amen

Say it again

Amen

I want to know what became of the changes

We waited for love to bring

Were they only the fitful dreams

Of some greater awakening

I've been aware of the time going by

They say in the end it's the wink of an eye

And when the morning light comes streaming in

You'll get up and do it again

Amen

Caught between the longing for love

And the struggle for the legal tender

Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring

And the junk man pounds his fender

Where the veterans dream of the fight

Fast asleep at the traffic light

And the children solemnly wait

For the ice cream vendor

Out into the cool of the evening

Strolls the Pretender

He knows that all his hopes and dreams

Begin and end there

Ah the laughter of the lovers

As they run through the night

Leaving nothing for the others

But to choose off and fight

And tear at the world with all their might

While the ships bearing their dreams

Sail out of sight

I'm going to find myself a girl

Who can show me what laughter means

And we'll fill in the missing colors

In each other's paint-by-number dreams

And then we'll put our dark glasses on

And we'll make love until our strength is gone

And when the morning light comes streaming in

We'll get up and do it again

Get it up again

I'm going to be a happy idiot

And struggle for the legal tender

Where the ads take aim and lay their claim

To the heart and the soul of the spender

And believe in whatever may lie

In those things that money can buy

Though true love could have been a contender

Are you there?

Say a prayer for the Pretender

Who started out so young and strong

Only to surrender

Cumbersome


Seven Mary Three


She calls me goliath and I wear the david mask

I guess the stones are coming too fast for her now

You know Id like to believe this nervousness will pass

All the stones that are thrown are building up a wall

I have become cumbersome to this world

I have become cumbersome to my girl

Id like to believe we could reconcile the past

Resurrect those bridges with an ancient glance

But my old stone face cant seem to break her down

She remembers bridges, burns them to the ground

I have become cumbersome to this world

I have become cumbersome to this girl

Too heavy too light, too black or too white, too wrong or too right, today or tonight

Cumbersome

Too rich too poor, shes wanting me less and Im wanting her more

The bitter taste is cumbersome

There is a balance between two worlds

One with an arrow and a cross

Regardless of the balance life has become

Cumbersome

Far Behind


Candlebox


Now maybe I didnt mean to treat you bad

But I did it anyway

And not maybe

Some would say your life was sad

But you lived it anyway

And now maybe

Your friends they stand beside they watch you crumble

As you falter to the ground

And now maybe

Your friends they stand beside as you were flying

Oh you were flying oh so high

But then some day people look at you for what they call their own

They watch you suffer

Yeah they hear you calling home

But then some day we could take our time

To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us

But you left me far behind

Now maybe I didnt mean to treat you oh so bad

But I did it anyway

Now maybe some would say youre left with what you had

But you couldnt share the pain

No, no, no

Couldnt share the pain they watch you suffer

Now maybe I could have made my own mistakes

But I live with what Ive known

Yes maybe we might share in something great

But wont you look at where weve grown

Wont you look at where weve gone

But then someday comes tomorrow holds a sense of what I fear for you in my mind

As you trip the final line

And that cold day when you lost control

Shame you left my life

So soon you should have told me

But you left me far behind

Now maybe I didnt meant to treat you oh so bad

But I did it anyway

Now maybe some would say youre left with what you had

But you couldnt share the pain

No, no, no

Now maybe I didnt mean to treat you oh so bad

But I did it anyway

No maybe some would say youre left with what you had

But you couldnt share the pain

I said times have changed your friends

They come and watch you crumble to the ground

They watch you suffer

Yeah they hold you down

Hold you down

Maybe brother maybe love I didnt mean to treat you bad

But you left me far behind

Left me far behind

Left me far behind

In The Meantime

Spacehog

And in the end we shall achieve in time


The thing they call divine



When all the stars will smile for me



When all is well and well is all for all



And forever after



Maybe in the meantime wait and see


 


We love the all the all of you



Our lands are green and skies are blue



When all in all were just like you



We love the all of you


 


And when I cry for me I cry for you



With tears of holy joy



And did I ever say Id never play



Or fly toward the sun



Maybe in the meantime, somethings gone


 


We love the all the all of you



Our lands are green and skies are blue



When all in all were just like you



We love the all of you


 


Well that sounds fine so Ill see you sunshine



Give my love to the future of the humankind



Okay, okay, its not okay.



While its on my mind theres a girl that fits the crime



For a future love dream that Im still to find



But in the meantime.


 


We love the all the all of you



Our lands are green and skies are blue



When all in all were just like you



We love the all of you

Great tune! Killer bass.. Kinda reminds me of Rush.
I first heard this song on my way to class one summer day (Thank you GI Bill!) and was blown away. After school, I went out and bought the **** CD.

One hit wonder, but a powerful one hit!

Highway Song


Blackfoot


Well, another day, another dollar, after I've sang and hollered,

Oh, it's my way of living, and I can't change a thing.

Another town is drawing near. Oh, baby, I wish you were here!

But the only way I can see you, darlin', is in my dreams.

It's a highway song.. you sing it on and on.. on and on..

Well, the hurt you leave behind, it's the hurt that's on your mind.

Oh, and last night's show took it's toll on me.

Well the city lights fly by me, as I lay my body in my bed,

Oh, and dreams of you Dance through my head.

It's a highway song.. you sing it on and on.. on and on..

Highway song.. is as lonely.. as the road I'm on..

It's those big wheels are ready to roll. We've be flyin' high and so low.

Lord, and all this madness, ain't crazy as it seems.

Everywhere, they stop and stare. I'm just a stranger on this road.

Oh, I stand alone, only in my dream.

Highway song.. you sing it on and on.. on and on..

Highway song.. is as lonely.. as the road I'm on..

Highway song.. you sing it on and on.. on and on..

Highway song.. is as lonely.. as the road I'm on..

Bother


Stone Sour


Wish I was too dead to cry

My self-affliction fades

Stones to throw at my creator

Masochists to which I cater

You don't need to bother;

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on,

I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Wish I was too dead to care

If indeed I cared at all

Never had a voice to protest

So you fed me to digest

I wish I had a reason;

my flaws are open season

For this, I gave up trying

One good turn deserves my dying

You don't need to bother;

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on,

I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Wish I'd died instead of lived

A zombie hides my face

Shell forgotten

with its memories

Diaries left

with cryptic entries

And you don't need to bother;

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on,

I won't let go 'til it bleeds

You don't need to bother;

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on:

I'll never live down my deceit

Unsealed



On a porch a letter sat



Then you said i wanna leave it again



Once I saw her on a beach of weathered sand



And on the sand I wanna leave it again... yeah



On a weekend I wanna wish it all away yeah...



And they called and I said that I want what I said



And then I call out again



And the reason oughta leave her calm I know



I said i dont know whether



Im the boxer or the bag



Ah yeah ehh....



Can you see them



Out on the porch



But they dont wave



I see them round the front way yeah



And I know I dont want to stay...


 


Make me cry


 


Ooooh I see



I dont know theres something else



I wanna drum it all away



Oh I said I dont, I dont know whether Im a boxer or the bag



Ah yeah ehh....



Can you see them



Out on the porch



But they dont wave



I see them round the front way yeah



And I know I dont want to stay



I dont wanna stay



I dont wanna stay



Dont



Dont wanna



Oh... yeah... oooh...

The Stalker Song



Imagine me and you, I do

I think about you day and night

It's only right to think about the man I stalk

Each day and night,

So happy together.

I dated you, for just a week

You dumped me and I cried real hard

And still can't sleep.

So now I'll have to force you to come back to me,

So happy together.

I can't see me stalking nobody but you for all your life

When you're with me baby the skies will be blue

For all my life.

I call you up at 2 am

I wake you and hang up the phone

And do it again.

That's what you get for goin' out with other women,

So happy together.

I can't see me stalking nobody but you for all your life

When you're with me baby the skies will be blue

For all my life.

I see you, you don't see me

I'm hidden with my telephoto lense up in the tree

You're walking and you look around, suspiciously,

So happy together.

"Hey...sugar...I like your eyebrows....no no that's kinda lame.

I got it, I got it.Hey baby, it's me again....surprise!That's a good

one, I like that, surprise, haha."

I've got your cat, don't be alarmed,

As long as you come talk to me,

He won't be harmed

We'll go and get a bite to eat

I'll come unarmed

So happy together...forever and ever...so happy together.

"Get out of the tree with the cat in the air."

Possum Kingdom


Toadies


Make up your mind

Decide to walk with me

Around the lake tonight

Around the lake tonight

By my side

By my side

I'm not gonna lie

I'll not be a gentleman

Behind the boathouse

I'll show you my dark secret

I'm not gonna lie

I want you for mine

My blushing bride

My lover, be my lover, yeah...

Don't be afraid

I didn't mean to scare you

So help me, Jesus

I can promise you

You'll stay as beautiful

With dark hair

And soft skin...forever

Forever

Make up your mind

Make up your mind

And I'll promise you

I will treat you well

My sweet angel

So help me, Jesus

(hey, hey, hey)

Give it up to me

Give it up to me

Do you wanna be

My angel?

So help me!

Be my angel

Be my angel

Do you wanna die?

I promise you

I will treat you well

My sweet angel

So help me, Jesus

Jesus

Jesus

Jesus...

I Saw the Light


Todd Rundgren


It was late last night

I was feeling something wasnt right

There was not another soul in sight

Only you, only you

So we walked along,

Though I knew there was something wrong

And the feeling hot me oh so strong about you

Then you gazed up at me and the answer was plain to see

cause I saw the light in your eyes

Though we had our fling

I just never would suspect a thing

til that little bell began to ring in my head

In my head

But I tried to run,

Though I knew it wouldnt help me none

cause I couldnt ever love no one, or so I said

But my feelings for you

Were just something I never knew

til I saw the light in your eyes

But I love you best

Its not something that I say in jest (ha ha)

cause youre different, girl, from all the rest

In my eyes

And I ran out before but I wont do it anymore

Cant you see the light in my eyes

Children of the Sun


Billy Thorpe


People of the earth can you hear me

Came a voice from the sky on that magical night

And in the colors of a thousand sunsets

They traveled to the world on a silvery light

The people of the earth stood waiting

Watching as the ships came one by one

Setting fire to the sky as they landed

Carrying to the world children of the sun, children of the sun

All at once came a sound from the inside

Then a beam made of light hit the ground

Everyone felt the sound of their heartbeat

Every man, every woman, every child

They passed the limits of imagination

Through the door to the world of another time

And on the journey of a thousand lifetimes

With the children of the sun, they started to climb

Children of the sun, children of the sun

No more gravity, nothing holding them down

Floating endlessly, as their ship leaves the ground

Through the walls of time, at the speed of light

Fly the crystal ships on their celestial flight, on their celestial flight

Children of the sun, children of the sun...
