Blackbird


Beatles


Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

All your life

You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these sunken eyes and learn to see

All your life

You were only waiting for this moment to be free.

Blackbird fly blackbird fly

Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird fly blackbird fly

Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

All your life

You were only waiting for this moment to arise

You were only waiting for this moment to arise

You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Maybe I'm Amazed - Paul McCartney

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time

Maybe I'm afraid of the way I love you

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you pulled me out of time

And hung me on a line

Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

Baby I'm a man maybe I'm a lonely man

Who's in the middle of something

That he doesn't really understand

Baby I'm a man and maybe you're the only woman

Who could ever help me

Baby won't you help me understand,

Baby I'm a man, maybe I'm a lonely man

Who's in the middle of something

That he doesn't really understand

Baby I'm a man and maybe you're the only woman

Who could ever help me

Baby won't you help me understand, oohhh

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time

Maybe I'm afraid of the way I leave you

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song

Right me when I'm wrong

Maybe I?m amazed at the way I really need you

Oh maybe I'm amazed

Maybe I'm amazed

Yeah, yeah yeah

Yeah, Maybe I'm amazed

I'm amazed, with you

Oo-oo Oo-oo

Too Many PeopleBy Paul McCartney

Too Many People Going Underground

Too Many Reaching For A Piece Of Cake

Too Many People Pulled And Pushed Around

Too Many Waiting For That Lucky Break

That Was Your First Mistake

You Took Your Lucky Break And Broke It In Two

Now What Can Be Done For You

You Broke It In Two

Too Many People Sharing Party Lines

Too Many People Never Sleeping Late

Too Many People Paying Parking Fines

Too Many Hungry People Losing Weight

That Was Your First Mistake

You Took Your Lucky Break And Broke It In Two

Now What Can Be Done For You

You Broke It In Two

Too Many People Breaching Practices

Don't Let Them Tell You What You Wanna Be

Too Many People Holding Back, This Is

Crazy And Maybe It's Not Like Me

That Was Your Last Mistake

I Find My Love Awake And Waiting To Be

Now What Can Be Done For You

She's Waiting For Me

The ***** is Back


Elton


I was justified when I was five

Raising cane, I spit in your eye

Times are changing, now the poor get fat

But the fevers gonna catch you when the ***** gets back

Eat meat on friday thats alright

Even like steak on a saturday night

I can ***** the best at your social dos

I get high in the evening sniffing pots of glue

I'm a *****, I'm a *****

Oh the ***** is back

Stone cold sober as a matter of fact

I can *****, I can *****

`cause I'm better than you

Its the way that I move

The things that I do

I entertain by picking brains

Sell my soul by dropping names

I don't like those, my ***, whats that

Oh its full of nasty habits when the ***** gets back

Dance you into day (sunlight)

Out on the floor

There aint nobody there but us

Girl, when you dance

Theres a magic that must be love

Just take it slow

cause we got so far to go

When you feel that heat

And were gonna ride the boogie

Share that beat of love

Chorus

I wanna rock with you (all night)

Dance you into day (sunlight)

I wanna rock with you (all night)

Were gonna rock the night away

And when the groove is dead and gone (yeah)

You know that love survives

So we can rock forever, on

I wanna rock with you

The Entertainer - Billy Joel

I am the entertainer,

And I know just where I stand:

Another serenader,

And another long-haired band.

Today I am your champion.

I may have won your hearts.

But I know the game,

You will forget my name,

And I won't be here

In another year,

If I don't stay on the charts.

I am the entertainer,

And I've had to pay my price.

The things I did not know at first,

I learned by doin' twice.

Ah, but still they come to haunt me,

Still they want their say.

So I've learned to dance

With a hand in my pants,

And they rub my neck,

And I write 'em a check,

And they go their merry way.

I am the entertainer,

Been all around the world.

I've played all kinds of palaces,

And laid all kinds of girls.

I can't remember faces,

I don't remember names.

Ah, but what the ****,

You know it's just as well.

'Cause after a while

And a thousand miles,

It all becomes the same.

I am the entertainer,

I bring to you my songs.

I'd like to spend a day or two.

I can't stay that long.

No, I've got to meet expenses.

I got to stay in line.

Gotta get those fees

To the agencies.

And I'd love to stay,

But there's bills to pay,

So I just don't have the time.

I am the entertainer,

I come to do my show.

You've heard my latest record,

It's been on the radio.

Ah, it took me years to write it,

They were the best years of my life.

It was a beautiful song.

But it ran too long.

If you're gonna have a hit,

You gotta make it fit--

So they cut it down to 3:05.

I am the entertainer,

The idol of my age.

I make all kinds of money,

When I go on the stage.

Ah, you've seen me in the papers,

I've been in the magazines.

But if I go cold,

I won't get sold.

I'll get put in the back

In the discount rack,

Like another can of beans.

I am the entertainer,

And I know just where I stand:

Another serenader,

And another long-haired band.

Today I am your champion.

I may have won your hearts.

But I know the game,

You will forget my name,

And I won't be here

In another year,

If I don't stay on the charts.

Sail Away


David Gray


Sail away

with me honey

I put my heart in your hands

Sail away with me honey now, now, now

Sail away with me

What will be will be

I wanna hold you now

Crazy skies all wild above me now

Winter howling at my face

And everything I held so dear

Disappeared without a trace

Oh all the times Ive tasted love

Never knew quite what I had

Little darling if you hear me now

Never needed you so bad

Spinning round inside my head

Sail away with me honey

I put my heart in your hands

Sail away with me honey now, now, now

Sail away with me

What will be will be

I wanna hold you now

I've been talking drunken gibberish

Falling in and out of bars

Trying to find some explanation here

For the way some people are

How did it ever come so far

Sail away with me honey

I put my heart in your hands

Sail away with me honey now, now, now

Sail away with me

What will be will be

I wanna hold you now

Sail away with me honey

I put my heart in your hands

Sail away with me honey now, now, now

Sail away with me

What will be will be

I wanna hold you now

Baker Street


Gerry Rafferty


Windin' your way down on Baker Street

Light in your head and dead on your feet

Well another crazy day

You'll drink the night away

And forget about everything

This city desert makes you feel so cold.

It's got so many people but it's got no soul

And it's taking you so long

To find out you were wrong

When you thought it had everything

You used to think that it was so easy

You used to say that it was so easy

But you're tryin'

You're tryin' now

Another year and then you'll be happy

Just one more year and then you'll be happy

But you're cryin'

You're cryin' now

Way down the street there's a lad in his place

He opens the door he's got that look on his face

And he asks you where you've been

You tell him who you've seen

And you talk about anything

He's got this dream about buyin' some land

He's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands

And then he'll settle down there's a quiet little town

And forget about everything

But you know he'll always keep movin'

You know he's never gonna stop movin

Cus he's rollin'

He's the rollin' stone

And when you wake up it's a new mornin'

The sun is shinin' it's a new morning

You're goin'

You're goin' home.

This song speaks to my soul and makes me teary eyed when I hear it. I'm such a dork.

Diary of a Madman


yay Ozzy


Screaming at the window

Watch me die another day

Hopeless situation endless price I have to pay

Sanity now it's beyond me there's no choice

Diary of a madman

Walk the line again today

Entries of confusion

Dear diary I'm here to stay

Manic depression befriends me

Hear his voice

Sanity now it's beyond me

There's no choice

I'm sick in mind and spirit

The mirror tells me lies

Could I mistake myself for someone

Who lives behind my eyes

Will he escape my soul

Or will he live in me

Is he tryin' to get out or tryin' to enter me

Voices in the darkness

Scream away my mental health

Can I ask a question

To help me save me from myself

Enemies fill up the pages

Are they me

Monday till Sunday in stages

Set me free

Those Shoes


Eagles


Tell us what you're gonna do tonight, mama.

There must be someplace you can go

In the middle of the tall drinks and the drama,

There must be someone you know.

*** knows, you're lookin' good enough,

But you're so smooth and the worlds so rough.

You might have somethin' to loose.

Oh, no, pretty mama, what you gonna

Do in those shoes?

Got those pretty little straps around your ankles

Got those shiny little chains around your heart.

You go to have your independence

But you don't know just where to start.

Desperation in the singles bars

An all those jerkoffs in their fancy cars.

You cant believe your reviews.

Oh, no, you cant do that,

Once you started wearin' those shoes

They're lookin' at you, leanin' on you

Tell you anything you want to hear

They give you tablets of love

They're waiting for you

Got to score you

Handy with a shovel and so sincere

Ooh, they got the kid glove

You just want someone to talk to

They just wanna get their hands on you

You get whatever you choose

Oh, no, you cant do that,

Once you started wearin' those shoes.

You know I could be just like you

I could be fake

I could be stupid

You know I could be just like you

You thought you were standing beside me

You were only in my way

You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me

You were only in my way

You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me

You were only in my way

You know I could be just like you

You thought you were standing beside me

You were only in my way

You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me

You were only in my way

You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me

You were only in my way

You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

On my own 'cause I can't take livin' with you

I'm alone, so I won't turn out like you want me to

You thought you were standing beside me

You were only in my way

You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me

You were only in my way

You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me

You were only in my way

You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

I could be angry

You know I could be just like you

Knowing me, Knowing you - ABBA

No more carefree laughter

Silence ever after

Walking through an empty house, tears in my eyes

Here is where the story ends, this is goodbye

Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)

There is nothing we can do

Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)

We just have to face it, this time we're through

Breaking up is never easy I know, but I have to go

Knowing me, knowing you

It's the best I can do

Mem'ries , good days, bad days ,

They'll be, with me always

In these old familiar rooms children would play

Now there's only emptiness, nothing to say

Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)

There is nothing we can do

Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)

We just have to face it, this time we're through

This time we're through, we're really through

Breaking up is never easy I know, but I have to go

I have to go this time

I have to go, this time I know

Knowing me, knowing you

It's the best I can do

Feeling that way - Journey

Opened my eyes to a new kind of way

All the good times that you saved

Are you feeling

You feeling that way too

Or am I just

Am I just a fool

When the summer's gone

She'll be there standing by the light

Once she's been to where she's gone to

She should know wrong from right

Is she feeling

Are you feeling

You feeling that way too?

Or am I just

Am I just a fool

A new road's waiting, you touched my life, whoa

Soft and warm on a summer's night

You're the only one, I told you, the only one I love

The lovely one, I'm thinking of

When the summer's gone

She'll be there standing by the light

Once she's been to where she's gone to

She should know wrong from right

Is she feeling

Are you feeling

You feeling that way too?

Whoa, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you feeling that way too?

Can not seem to get a grip on me

Well. I can't even try

I'm so **** lonely

Ain't even high

But I don't care if I get behind

All I want is to have my peace of mind.

Now you're climbin' to the top of the company ladder

Hope it doesn't take too long

Can't cha you see there'll come a day when it wont matter

Come a day when you'll be gone

I understand about indecision

But I don't care if I get behind

People livin' in competition

All I want is to have my peace of mind.

Take a look ahead, take a look ahead, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...

Now everybody's got advice they just keep on givin'

Doesn't mean too much to me

Lots of people out to make-believe they're livin'

Cant decide who they should be.

But I don't care if I get behind

People livin' in competition

All I want is to have my peace of mind.
