I think you hit an artery wez. I love any Beatles song. They are the kings of Profound.
They are.. still ahead of their time.. ;)

Within you Without you


Beatles


We were talking-about the space between us all

And the people-who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion

Never glimpse the truth-then it's far too late-when they pass away.

We were talking-about the love we all could share-when we find it

To try our best to hold it there-with our love

With our love-we could save the world-if they only knew.

Try to realize it's all within yourself

No-one else can make you change

And to see you're really only very small,

And life flows ON within you and without you.

We were talking-about the love that's gone so cold and the people,

Who gain the world and lose their soul-

They don't know-they can't see-are you one of them?

When you've seen beyond yourself-then you may find, peace of mind,

Is waiting there-

And the time will come when you see

we're all one, and life flows on within you and without you.

Zac Brown- Chicken Fried

You know I like my chicken fried

Cold beer on a Friday night

A pair of jeans that fit just right

And the radio up

Well I was raised up beneath the shade of a Georgia pine

And that?s home you know

Sweet tea pecan pie and homemade wine

Where the peaches grow

And my house it?s not much to talk about

But it?s filled with love that?s grown in southern ground

And a little bit of chicken fried

Cold beer on a Friday night

A pair of jeans that fit just right

And the radio up

Well I?ve seen the sunrise

See the love in my woman?s eyes

Feel the touch of a precious child

And know a mother?s love

And its funny how it?s the little things in life that mean the most

Not where you live, what you drive or the price tag on your clothes

There?s no dollar sign on a piece of mind this I?ve come to know

So if you agree have a drink with me

Raise you glasses for a toast

To a little bit of chicken fried

Cold beer on a Friday night

A pair of jeans that fit just right

And the radio up

Well I?ve seen the sunrise

See the love in my woman?s eyes

Feel the touch of a precious child

And know a mother?s love

I thank *** for my life

And for the stars and stripes

May freedom forever fly, let it ring.

Salute the ones who died

And the ones that gave their lives so we don?t have to sacrifice

All the things we love

Like our chicken fried

Cold beer on a Friday night

A pair of jeans that fit just right

And the radio up

Well I?ve seen the sunrise

See the love in my woman?s eyes

Feel the touch of a precious child

And know a mother?s love

You know I like my chicken fried

Cold beer on a Friday night

A pair of jeans that fit just right

And the radio up

Well I?ve seen the sunrise

See the love in my woman?s eyes

Feel the touch of a precious child

And know a mother?s love

Games People Play


Alan Parsons Project


Where do we go from here now that all other children are growin up

And how do we spend our lives if theres noone to lend us a hand

I dont wanna live here no more, I dont wanna stay

Aint gonna spend the rest of my life, quietly fading away

Games people play, you take it or you leave it

Things that they say, honor brite

If I promise you the moon and the stars, would you believe it

Games people play in the middle of the night

Where do we go from here now that all of the children have grown up

And how do we spend our lives knowin nobody gives us a ****

I dont wanna live here no more, I dont wanna stay

Aint gonna spend the rest of my life, quietly fading away

Games people play, you take it or you leave it

Things that they say, just dont make it right

If Im telling you the truth right now, do you believe it

Games people play in the middle of the night

Games people play, you take it or you leave it

Things that they say, honor brite

If I promise you the moon and the stars, would you believe it

Games people play in the middle of the night

Games people play, you take it or you leave it

Things that they say, just dont make it right

If Im telling you the truth right now, do you believe it

Games people play in the middle of the night

Flight of Icarus


Iron Maiden


As the sun breaks above the ground

An old man stands on the hill

As the ground warms to the first rays of light

A birdsong shatters the still

His eyes are ablaze

See the madman in his gaze

Fly on your way like an eagle

Fly as high as the sun

On your wings like an eagle

Fly and touch the sun

Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears

Look the old man in his eyes

As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd

In the name of *** my father I fly

His eyes seem so glazed

As he flies on the wings of a dream

Now he knows his father betrayed

Now his wings burn to ashes to ashes his grave

Fly on your way like an eagle

Fly as high as the sun

On your wings like an eagle

Fly and touch the sun

Survivor - High on You

There you stood, that'll teach ya

To look so good and feel so right

Let me tell you 'bout the girl I met last night

It's understood, I had to reach ya

I let the wheel of fortune spin

I touched your hand before the crowd

Started crushin' in

Now I'm higher than a kite

I know I'm gettin' hooked on your love

Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat

Beggin' for your touch in the middle

Of the street and I --

I can't stop thinking 'bout you girl

I must be living in a fantasy world

I've searched the whole world over

To find a heart so true

Such complete intoxication

I'm high on you

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4m1_c_ZKGc]YouTube - Survivor - High On You -- (Solid Gold)[/ame]

Smart and coy, a little crazy

The kinda face that starts a fight

Let me tell you 'bout the girl I had last night

Piercin' eyes, like a raven

You seemed to share my secret sin

We were high before the night

Started kickin' in

Now I'm screamin' in the night

I know I'm gettin' hooked on your love

Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat

Beggin' for your touch in the middle

Of the street and I --

( Repeat)

(Chuck Berry) John Lennon - YOU CAN'T CATCH ME

I bought a brand-new air-mobile

It custom-made, 'twas a Flight De Ville

With a pow'ful motor and some hideaway wings

Push in on the button and you will get a scene

CHORUS:

Now you can't catch me, baby you can't catch me

'Cause if you get too close, you know I'm gone like a cool breeze

New Jersey Turnpike in the wee wee hours

I was rollin' slow because of drizzlin' showers

Here come a flat-top, he was movin' up with me

Then come wavin' goodbye a little' old souped-up jitney

I put my foot in my tank and I began to roll

Moanin' siren, 'twas a state patrol

So I let out my wings and then I blew my horn

Bye bye New Jersey, I'd be come and gone

(chorus)

Flyin' with my baby last Saturday night

Not a gray cloud floatin' in sight

Big full moon shinin' up above

Cuddle up honey, be my love

Sweetest little thing I've ever seen

I'm gonna name you Maybellene

Flyin' on the beam, set on flight control

Radio tuned to rock 'n' roll

Two, three hours have passed us by

I'll be 2 dropped to 5:05

Fuel consumption way too fast

Let's get on home before we run out of gas

(chorus)

Yer Blues


Beatles


Yes I'm lonely wanna die

Yes I'm lonely wanna die

If I ain't dead already

Ooh girl you know the reason why.

In the morning wanna die

In the evening wanna die

If I ain't dead already

Ooh girl you know the reason why.

My mother was of the sky

My father was of the earth

But I am of the universe

And you know what it's worth

I'm lonely wanna die

If I ain't dead already

Ooh girl you know the reason why.

The eagle picks my eye

The worm he licks my bones

I feel so suicidal

Just like Dylan's Mr. Jones

Lonely wanna die

If I ain't dead already

Ooh girl you know the reason why.

Black cloud crossed my mind

Blue mist round my soul

Feel so suicidal

Even hate my rock and roll

Wanna die yeah wanna die

If I ain't dead already

Ooh girl you know the reason why.

All Moving Parts (Stand Still)


Black Sabbath


Super animation,turning on a nation

And they're saying all moving parts stand still

Since he was elected,adrenalin injected

Hear him saying all moving parts should kill

Just like the hero he's got them all on the run,

yes he's won

Since he passed the motion

They're building in the ocean

And he's saying all men should be free

What a combination,peace and radiation

And he's saying free men should fight for me

Just like his momma,he seems to get his pleasure from pain,

And the rain,ain't that strange? Very strange

I like choking toys

You've got to see me before you meet the boys

Teacher's burnt the school,

He's had enough of sticking to the rules

People stop and see

he's got to be more decadent than me

Just to pass the time

He gets his kicks from licking off the wine

Pretty silly ladies

All Cynthia'd and Sadie's

Call him and he takes their numbers down

Says he is a woman

Should have seen it coming

And she says she's married to a clown

Just like a lady she'll keep you guessing through the night

Not tonight,well I might,oh alright...!

Dirty Water - Standells

I wanna tell you a story

I wanna tell you about my town

I'm gonna tell you a big fat story, baby

Aww, it's all about my town

Yeah, down by the river

Down by the banks of the river Charles

That's where you'll find me

Along with lovers, buggers and thieves

Aw, but they're cool people

Well I love that dirty water

Oh, Boston you're my home

Oh, you're the number one place

Frustrated women

Have to be in by twelve o'clock

But I'm wishin' and a hopin', oh

That just once those doors weren't locked

I like to save time for my baby to walk around

Well I love that dirty water

Oh, Boston you're my home

'Cause I love that dirty water

Oh, Boston you're my home

Well I love that dirty water

I love that dirty water (I love Boston)

You Wont Change Me


Black Sabbath


I'm just a man and I am what I am, yeah

Nobody will ever change my ways

I don't need money and I don't need no lies, yeah

I only need to live for today

But I'd like to talk things over with you

I want to hear the things you say,today

Although you won't change me anyway, oh no way

I wish you'd come and see me,I'd like to hold you

I want to set my mind all free

You understand me woman, you give me time

But I don't need no sympathy

Still I wonder what it's like to be loved

Instead of hiding in myself

Nobody will change me anyway, no no way

Nobody's gonna change my world

That's something too unreal

Nobody will change the way I feel

So listen to me now, hear what I say, yeah

Please give me time and maybe love

If there's a *** up there, well I hope he helps me

I need him now to set me free

'Cos it may be that it's over for me

If you don't hear the things that I say,today

Nobody will change me anyway, no no way

Nobody's gonna change my world

That's something too unreal

Nobody will change the way I feel

Dissident


Pearl Jam


She nursed him there, ooh, over a night

I wasnt so sure she wanted him to stay

What to say...what to say

But soon she was down, soon he was low

At a quarter past...a holy no...

She had to turn around

When she couldnt hold, oh...she folded...

A dissident is here

Escape is never, the safest path

Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here

And to this day, shes glided on

Always home but so far away

Like a word misplaced

Nothing said, what a waste

When she had contact...with the conflict...

There was meaning, but she sold him to the state

She had to turn around

When she couldnt hold...she folded...

A dissident is here

Escape is never, the safest path

Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here, oh...oh...oh...

She gave him away when she couldnt hold...no...she folded...

A dissident is here escape is never, the safest path

Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here, oh...

Couldnt hold on...she couldnt hold...no...she folded...

A dissident is here

Escape is never the safest place, oh...

A dissident is here

Harry Nilsson - Driving Along

Driving along


You can see all the people



Who seem to have nothing to say to each other



Each day they grow farther and farther away from each other


 


Driving along



You can spot all the problems



On faces so tired of facing each other



Each day they grow farther and farther away from each other


 


Driving along at fifty seven thousand miles an hour



Look at those people standing on the petals of a flower



Look at those petals pumping for a little bit of power


 


Driving along



You can see all the people



Who seem to have nothing to say to each other



Each day they grow farther and farther away from each other


 


They seem to say nothing



They seem to go nowhere



They seem to go farther



They seem to go nowhere



They seem to go farther



They seem to go nowhere



They seem to go farther



And farther and farther

Drivin faster in my car

Falling farther from just what we are

Smoke a cigarette and lie some more

These conversations kill

Falling faster in my car

Time to take her home

Her dizzy head is conscience laden

Time to take a ride

It leaves today no conversation

Time to take her home

Her dizzy head is conscience laden

Time to wait too long

To wait too long

These conversations kill

To much walkin, shoes worn thin

Too much trippin and my souls worn thin

Time to catch a ride

It leaves today, her name is what it means

To much walkin, shoes worn thin

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)

You Can Call me Al


Paul Simon


A man walks down the street

He says why am I soft in the middle now

Why am I soft in the middle

The rest of my life is so hard

I need a photo-opportunity

I want a shot at redemption

Dont want to end up a cartoon

In a cartoon graveyard

Bonedigger bonedigger

Dogs in the moonlight

Far away my well-lit door

Mr. beerbelly beerbelly

Get these mutts away from me

You know I dont find this stuff amusing anymore

If you'll be my bodyguard

I can be your long lost pal

I can call you betty

And betty when you call me

You can call me al

A man walks down the street

He says why am I short of attention

Got a short little span of attention

And wo my nights are so long

Wheres my wife and family

What if I die here

Who'll be my role-model

Now that my role-model is

Gone gone

He ducked back down the alley

With some roly-poly little bat-faced girl

All along along

There were incidents and accidents

There were hints and allegations

If you'll be my bodyguard

I can be your long lost pal

I can call you betty

And betty when you call me

You can call me al

Call me al

A man walks down the street

Its a street in a strange world

Maybe its the third world

Maybe its his first time around

He doesnt speak the language

He holds no currency

He is a foreign man

He is surrounded by the sound

The sound

Cattle in the marketplace

Scatterlings and orphanages

He looks around, around

He sees angels in the architecture

Spinning in infinity

He says amen! and hallelujah!

If you'll be my bodyguard

I can be your long lost pal

I can call you betty

And betty when you call me

You can call me al

Call me al

Too Much Time on My Hands


Styx


Sitting on this barstool talking like a **** fool

Got the twelve o'clock news blues

And I've given up hope on the afternoon soaps

And a bottle of cold brew

Is it any wonder I'm not crazy? is it any wonder I'm sane at all?

Well I'm so tired of losing- I got nothing to do and all day to do it

I go out cruisin but I've no place to go and all night to get there

Is it any wonder I'm not a criminal?

Is it any wonder I'm not in jail?

Is it any wonder I've got

Too much time on my hands, its ticking away with my sanity

I've got too much time on my hands, its hard to believe such a calamity

I've got too much time on my hands and its ticking away from me

Too much time on my hands, too much time on my hands

Too much time on my hands

Well, I'm a jet fuel genius - I can solve the worlds problems

Without even trying

I have dozens of friends and the fun never ends

That is, as long as I'm buying

Is it any wonder I'm not the president

(hes not the president)

Is it any wonder I'm null and void?

Is it any wonder I've got

Too much time on my hands, its ticking away at my sanity

Ive got too much time on my hands, its hard to believe such a calamity

Ive got too much time on my hands and its ticking away from me

Too much time on my hands, too much time on my hands

Too much time on my hands

The Best of Times


Styx


Tonights the night we'll make history, honey, you and I

And I'll take any risk to tie back the hands of time

And stay with you here tonight

I know you feel these are the worst of times

I do believe its true

When people lock their doors and hide inside

Rumor has it its the end of paradise

But I know, if the world just passed us by

Baby I know, you wouldnt have to cry

The best of times are when I'm alone with you

Some rain some shine, we'll make this a world for two

Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime

Well take the best, forget the rest

And someday we'll find these are the best of times

These are the best of times

The headlines read these are the worst of times

I do believe its true

I feel so helpless like a boat against the tide

I wish the summer winds could bring back paradise

But I know, if the world turned upside down

Baby, I know youd always be around

The best of times are when I'm alone with you

Some rain some shine, well make this a world for two

Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime

Well take the best, forget the rest

And someday well find these are the best of times

These are the best of times

And

So my friends we'll say goodnight for time has claimed its prize

But tonight will always last

As long as we keep alive memories of paradise...

With an image of you goin' around in my head

pretend

End of the Line


Traveling Wilburys





Well its all right, riding around in the breeze

Well its all right, if you live the life you please

Well its all right, doing the best you can

Well its all right, as long as you lend a hand

You can sit around and wait for the phone to ring

Waiting for someone to tell you everything

Sit around and wonder what tomorrow will bring

Maybe a diamond ring

Well its all right, even if they say you're wrong

Well its all right, sometimes you gotta be strong

Well its all right, as long as you got somewhere to lay

Well its all right, everyday is judgement day

Maybe somewhere down the road aways

Youll think of me, and wonder where I am these days

Maybe somewhere down the road when somebody plays

Purple haze

Well its all right, even when push comes to shove

Well its all right, if you got someone to love

Well its all right, everything'll work out fine

Well its all right, were going to the end of the line

Dont have to be ashamed of the car I drive

Im just glad to be here, happy to be alive

It don't matter if you're by my side

Im satisfied

Well its all right, even if youre old and grey

Well its all right, you still got something to say

Well its all right, remember to live and let live

Well its all right, the best you can do is forgive

Well its all right, riding around in the breeze

Well its all right, if you live the life you please

Well its all right, even if the sun don't shine

Well its all right, we're going to the end of the line
