The best of you

Foo Fighters

I've got another confession to make

I'm your fool

Everyone's got their chains to break

Holdin' you

Were you born to resist or be abused?

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Are you gone and onto someone new?

I needed somewhere to hang my head

Without your noose

You gave me something that I didn't have

But had no use

I was too weak to give in

Too strong to lose

My heart is under arrest again

But I break loose

My head is giving me life or death

But I can't choose

I swear i'll never give in

No, I refuse

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Has someone taken your faith?

Its real, the pain you feel

Your trust, you must

Confess

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Oh..

Oh

Oh

Oh

Oh

Has someone taken your faith?

Its real, the pain you feel

The life, the love

You'd die to heal

The hope that starts

The broken hearts

Your trust, you must

Confess

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

I've got another confession my friend

I'm no fool

I'm getting tired of starting again

Somewhere new

Were you born to resist or be abused?

I swear i'll never give in

I refuse

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Has someone taken your faith?

Its real, the pain you feel

Your trust, you must

Confess

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Oh..

Dude you gotta get off the dial up. Man your hooked. :D

Merle Travis/Tex Ritter - Smoke Smoke Smoke That Cigarette


1. Now I'm a fella with a heart of gold - With the ways of a gentleman I've been told

A kind of a guy that wouldn't even harm a flea

But if me and a certain character met - The guy that invented the cigarette

I'd murder that son of a gun in the first degree

2. It ain't that I don't smoke myself - And I don't reckon they'll hinder your health

I've smoked them all my life and I ain't dead yet

But nicotine slaves are all the same - At a pettin? party or a poker game

Everythin's gotta stop while you have that cigarette

Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette puff puff puff and if you smoke yourself to death

Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate that you hate to make him wait

But you just gotta have another cigarette

3. Now at a game of chance the other night - Ol' Dame Fortune was a doin' me right

The kings and queens just kept on comin' round

And I got a full and I bettet high - But my bluff didn't work on a certain guy

He just kept a risin' and layin' his money down

4. He'd raise me and I'd raise him - And I sweated blood you gotta sink or swim

He finally called and he couldn?t raise the bet

I said ?aces full pal how about you��? - He said ?I'll tell you in a minute or two

But right now I just gotta have another cigarette��?

Smoke smoke smoke...

[ piano ]

5. Now the other night I had me a date - With the cutest little gal in the fifty states

One of them highbred up-town fancy little dames

She said she loved me and it seemed to me - That things were just about like they oughta be

So hand in hand we strolled down Lover's Lane

6. She was oh so far from a chunk of ice - And our smoochin' party was a goin' real nice

So help me Hannah and I think I'd of been there yet

I give her a kiss and a little squeeze - And she said ?would you excuse me please

But I just gotta have another cigarette��?

Smoke smoke smoke... X 2

You just gotta have another cigarette

The Grand Illusion

Styx

Welcome to the grand illusion

Come on in and see whats happening

Pay the price, get your tickets for the show

The stage is set, the band starts playing

Suddenly your heart is pounding

Wishing secretly you were a star.

But dont be fooled by the radio

The tv or the magazines

They show you photographs of how your life should be

But they're just someone elses fantasy

So if you think your life is complete confusion

Because you never win the game

Just remember that its a grand illusion

And deep inside we're all the same.

We're all the same...

So if you think your life is complete confusion

Because your neighbors got it made

Just remember that its a grand illusion

And deep inside we're all the same.

Were all the same...

America spells competition, join us in our blind ambition

Get yourself a brand new motor car

Someday soon well stop to ponder what on earths this spell were under

We made the grade and still we wonder who the **** we are

Slip sliding away

Simon and Garfunkel

Slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away

You know the nearer your destination

The more youre slip slidin' away

I know a man

He came from my home town

He wore his passion for his woman

Like a thorny crown

He said delores

I live in fear

My love for you is so overpowering

Im afraid that I will disappear

Slip slidin away

Slip slidin away

You know the nearer your destination

The more youre slip slidin away

I know a woman

Became a wife

These are the very words she uses

To describe her life

She said a good day

Aint got no rain

She said a bad days when I lie in bed

And think of things that might have been

Slip slidin away

Slip slidin away

You know the nearer your destination

The more youre slip slidin away

And I know a fa-ther

Who had a son

He longed to tell him all the reasons

For the things hed done

He came a long way

Just to explain

He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping

Then he turned around and headed home again

Slip slidin away

Slip slidin away

You know the nearer your destination

The more youre slip slidin away

*** only knows

*** makes his plan

The informations unavailable

To the mortal man

We work our jobs

Collect our pay

Believe were gliding down the highway

When in fact were slip slidin away

Slip slidin away

Slip slidin away

You know the nearer your destination

The more youre slip slidin away

Slip slidin away

You know the nearer your destination

The more youre slip slidin away

Mmm...

I Can See Clearly Now

Johnny Nash

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,

I can see all obstacles in my way

Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind

It?s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)

Sun-Shiny day.

I think I can make it now, the pain is gone

All of the bad feelings have disappeared

Here is the rainbow I?ve been prayin?for

It?s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)

Sun-Shiny day.

Look all around, there?s nothin?but blue skies

Look straight ahead, nothin?but blue skies

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,

I can see all obstacles in my way

Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind

It?s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)

Sun-Shiny day.

Fight the good fight

Triumph

The days grow shorter and the nights are getting long

Feels like we're running out of time

Every day it seems much harder tellin' right from wrong

You got to read between the lines

Don't get discouraged, don't be afraid, we can

Make it through another day

Make it worth the price we pay

The Good Book says it's better to give than to receive

I do my best to do my part

Nothin' in my pockets I got nothin' up my sleeve

I keep my magic in my heart

Keep up your spirit, keep up your faith, baby

I am counting on you

You know what you've got to do

CHORUS:

Fight the good fight every moment

Every minute every day

Fight the good fight every moment

It's your only way

All your life you've been waiting for your chance

Where you'll fit into the plan

But you're the master of your own destiny

So give and take the best that you can

You think a little more money will buy your soul some rest

You'd better think of something else instead

You're so afraid of being honest with yourself

You'd better take a look inside your head

Nothing is easy, nothing good is free

But I can tell you where to start

Take a look inside your heart

There's an answer in your heart

Never met a girl like you before - Iggy Pop

I`ve never known a girl like you before,

Now just like in a song from days of yore,

Here you come a-knock knocking on my door,

Well I've never met a girl like you before.

You give me just a taste so I want more,

Now my hands are bleeding and my knees are raw,

'Cause now you got me crawling, crawling, on the floor.

And I`ve never known a girl like you before.

You made me acknowledge the devil in me

I hope to *** I'm talking metaphorically,

Hope that I'm talking alegorically,

Know that I'm talking about the way I feel

And I`ve never known a girl like you before.

Never, never, never, never

Never known a girl like you before

This old town's changed so much.

Don't feel like I belong,

Too many protest singers,

Not enough protest songs.

And now you've come along,

Yes you've come along,

And I've never met a girl like you before.

"Land of Confusion"

I must have dreamed a thousand dreams

Been haunted by a million screams

But I can hear the marching feet

They're moving into the street

Now, did you read the news today?

They say the danger has gone away

But I can see the fire's still alight

They're burning into the night

There's too many men, too many people

Making too many problems

And there's not much love to go around

Can't you see this is the land of confusion?

This is the world we live in

And these are the hands we're given

Use them and let's start trying

To make it a place worth living in

Oh, superman, where are you now?

When everything's gone wrong somehow?

The men of steel, I hate these men of power

I'm losing control by the hour

This is the time, this is the place

So we look for the future

But there's not much love to go around

Tell me why this is the land of confusion

This is the world we live in

And these are the hands we're given

Use them and let's start trying

To make it a place worth living in

I remember long ago

When the sun was shining

And all the stars were bright all through the night

In the wake up this madness, as I held you tight

So long ago

I won't be coming home tonight

My generation will put it right

We're not just making promises

That we know we'll never keep

There's too many men, too many people

Making too many problems

And there's not much love to go round

Can't you see this is the land of confusion?

Now, this is the world we live in

And these are the hands we're given

Use them and let's start trying

To make it a place worth fighting for

This is the world we live in

And these are the names we're given

Stand up and let's start showing

Just where our lives are going to

Dr. Hook and the Medicine show - Life ain't Easy

Well here I am in the wind again, floating where it takes me

Laughin' and a splashin' in the summer sun, until the alarm clock awakes me

Then it's coffee and a kiss and two cigarettes, and I'm back out in the cold, cold weather

Chasin' my dream but I just can't seem to rub two coins together

(Sing it)

Life ain't easy, they never said it would be

Life ain't easy, whoever said it should be

Life ain't easy, and nothing comes free, free, free, free

Life ain't easy, tell me all about it

Life ain't easy, no, no, no, no

Life ain't easy, and nothing comes free, for you or me

That woman she don't understand, the way my mind keeps driftin'

And the Lord don't always lend a hand, when my poor heart needs liftin'

Is home and kids really all there is, or is there something better?

And how much soul must a poor man sell to rub two coins together?

Don't you know that

Life ain't easy, no, no, no, no

Life ain't easy, whoever said it would be

Life ain't easy, and nothing comes free, free, free, free

Life ain't easy, can you hear me

Life ain't easy, tell me all about it

Life ain't easy, and nothing comes free, free, free, free

Life ain't easy, tell me all about it

Life ain't easy, no, no, no, no

Life ain't easy, and nothing comes free, for you or me

Life ain't easy

Life ain't easy...

Time after Time - Ozzy

Time after time

I guess that love is blind

I couldn't read your mind

Line after line

Line after line

It was written in your eyes

I guess it's no surprise

Time after time

I can hear them whispering

Shadows in the rain

Thinking how it might have been

Time after time

Line after line you broke mine

Day after day

I watched love fade away

I wanted love to stay

Day after day

The games we played

The foolish things we say

The pain won't go away

Day after day

Candlelight is shimmering

Shadows on the wall

Thinking how it might have been

Day after day

The games we play you broke meh

Candlelights are shimmering

Shadows on the wall

Thinking how it might have been

No problem, it is one of my currant favorites.

It's excellent.. Great lyrics too.. I absolutely love it... I'm gonna post the lyrics..

You Once Told Me

Andain

You once told me

I will know it enough

oh let me tell you something

yeah I do

you once told me

I won't feel enough

let me tell you that

baby I do

Sometimes I find myself in a sea

in a dream that's so far away

sometimes

Tell me what's happened to me

sometimes I see myself falling

although I don't show it much

sometimes I'm crazy for you

well maybe I'm fine

and tell me you're mine

sometimes I find myself

in a Sea..

in a dream that's so far away

sometimes

tell me what's happened to me

Tell me baby can you hold me now

we don't have to say it I feel it too

and maybe I'm falling or maybe

but I am not showing it much

tell me baby

can you see me now

show me baby that I dont know how

how can I start to see inside the fall

but sometimes I find mysef in a sea

in a dream that's so far away

sometimes

tell me what's happened to me

In a sea, in a dream that's so far away

sometimes

tell me what's happened to me ....
