one song

[fickerson]

i have seen you in various stages of undress

i have seen you through various states of madness

i have seen your reflection and i did not recognize you

i have seen you in various states of madness

 

how high are your highest of heights

how low are your lows?

how high are your highest of heights

how low are your lows?

 

i am sorry, i had nothing left for you

my mind was willing and my spirit was strong

my lips were tired and tightened from singing along

my eyelids are heavy as anchors thrown overboard

 

how high are your highest of heights

how low are lows?

how high are your highest of heights

how low are your lows?

 

i have seen you in the eyes of a hundred thousand other stranger faces

i have seen you in unlikely and unfamiliar places

i have seen you be reckless in matters of love

i have seen my degrees the boiling point come and go

 

how high are your highest of heights

how low are your lows?

how high are your highest of heights

how low are your lows?

what lies at the end of this long and dark twisted road?

 

i have seen you in various stages of undress

i have seen you through various states of madness

[timbits]

ahhhhh...GLS

[timbits]

I hear a sound

It

[ajarwithaheavylid]

It was written that I would love you

From the moment I opened my eyes

And the morning when I first saw you

Gave me life under calico skies.

 

I will hold you for as long as you like

I

[Elixir Sue]

I know you posted this days ago, but could you tell me who/ what this is? It seems like I've heard it before, but I can't place it.

Paul McCartney - Calico Skies.

[Dude]

the evening fell just like a star

left a trail behind

you spit as you slammed out the door

if this is love we're crazies

we fight like cats and dogs

i just know there's got to be more

 

so please call me, baby

whereever you are

it's too cold to be out walkin' in the street

we do crazy things when we're wounded

everyone's a bit insane

i don't want you catching your death of cold

out walking in the rain

 

i admit i ain't no angel

i admit i ain't no saint

i'm selfish and i'm cruel but you're blind

if i exorcise my devils well my angels my leave too

when they leave they're so hard to find

 

so please call me, baby

whereever you are

it's too cold to be out walkin' in the street

we do crazy things when we're wounded

everyone's a bit insane

i don't want you catching your death of cold

out walking in the rain

 

we're always at eachother's throats

you know it drives me up a wall

but most of the time i'm just blowing off steam

i wish to god you'd leave me

baby i wish to god you'd stay

but life's so different than it is in your dreams

 

so please call me, baby

whereever you are

it's too cold to be out walkin' in the street

we do crazy things when we're wounded

everyone's a bit insane

i don't want you catching your death of cold

out walking in the rain

[Guest baseball bobblehead]

Head, shoulders, knees and toes,

Knees and toes.

 

Head, shoulders, knees and toes,

Knees and toes.

 

And eyes, and ears, and mouth,

And nose.

 

Head, shoulders, knees and toes,

Knees and toes.

[Dude]

Head, shoulders, knees and toes,

Knees and toes.

Want to cross

But I don

[viatroy]

really looking fwd to this movie ... loves me some Joe Kwan.

 

 

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine

I keep my eyes wide open all the time

I keep the ends out for the tie that binds

Because you're mine, I walk the line

 

I find it very, very easy to be true

I find myself alone when each day is through

Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you

Because you're mine, I walk the line

 

As sure as night is dark and day is light

I keep you on my mind both day and night

And happiness I've known proves that it's right

Because you're mine, I walk the line

 

You've got a way to keep me on your side

You give me cause for love that I can't hide

For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide

Because you're mine, I walk the line

 

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine

I keep my eyes wide open all the time

I keep the ends out for the tie that binds

Because you're mine, I walk the line

[Dude]

Crimson flames tied through my ears

Rollin' high and mighty traps

Pounced with fire on flaming roads

Using ideas as my maps

"We'll meet on edges, soon," said I

Proud 'neath heated brow.

Ah, but I was so much older then,

I'm younger than that now.

 

Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth

"Rip down all hate," I screamed

Lies that life is black and white

Spoke from my skull. I dreamed

Romantic facts of musketeers

Foundationed deep, somehow.

Ah, but I was so much older then,

I'm younger than that now.

 

Girls' faces formed the forward path

From phony jealousy

To memorizing politics

Of ancient history

Flung down by corpse evangelists

Unthought of, though, somehow.

Ah, but I was so much older then,

I'm younger than that now.

 

A self-ordained professor's tongue

Too serious to fool

Spouted out that liberty

Is just equality in school

"Equality," I spoke the word

As if a wedding vow.

Ah, but I was so much older then,

I'm younger than that now.

 

In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand

At the mongrel dogs who teach

Fearing not that I'd become my enemy

In the instant that I preach

My pathway led by confusion boats

Mutiny from stern to bow.

Ah, but I was so much older then,

I'm younger than that now.

 

Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats

Too noble to neglect

Deceived me into thinking

I had something to protect

Good and bad, I define these terms

Quite clear, no doubt, somehow.

Ah, but I was so much older then,

I'm younger than that now.

Some call me Arnie

Some name me Slim

It don't make no difference

'Cos I move right in

They call me the groover

When I'm on the floor

The kids yell for more, more, more

Some call me Starkey

Some named me stud

Yes they do

It don't make no difference

'Cos I move in the mud

I said sing it to me children

Yea I'm the groover honey Yea

I'm the groover honey Yea

I'm the groover honey

Well some call me Jeepster

And some name me lame

It don't make no difference

Man you know what it takes

I'm a groover 'cos I move right in

[pokesallrule]

I listen to the wind

to the wind of my soul

Where I'll end up well I think

only God really knows

I've sat upon the setting sun

but never, never never never

I never wanted water once

no never, never, never

 

I listen to my words but

they fall far below

I let the my music take me where

my heart wants to go

I swam upon the devil's lake

but never, never never never

I'll never make the same mistake

 

No never, never, never

[Analogman]

Now that's a good one.

[pnêyu]

September gurls do so much

I was your butch and you were touched

I loved you, well, never mind

I've been crying all the time

 

December boys got it bad

 

September gurls, I don't know why

How can I deny what's inside

Even though I'll keep away

Maybe we'll love all our days

 

When I get to bed, late at night

That's the time she makes things right

Ooh when she makes love to me

 

===========

Makes me wish I were one

i'm obsessed w/ this song (and frank black right now)

 

Sun she burns mean and big

I think I'll go to Cafe Noir

Big screen turns me on

I'm gonna be a western star

How hard can it be?

 

I get my freon bingo

Inside your cool soft sarong

Rolling on the moquette

Inside a cul-de-sac kampong

How hard can it be?

 

How hard can it be?

When you're a western star?

Shining and free

Don't you know that a star burns best?

How hard can it be?

And I said now

How hard can it be?

 

She's so sentimental

She's got my pictures in her head

The tool-man is in her dreams

I was lifted when she said

How hard can it be?

 

How hard can it be?

When you're a western star?

Shining and free

Don't you know that a star burns best?

How hard can it be?

And I said now

How hard can it be?

 

Now he's headed skyward

Standing up on piles of plywood

And all he thinks about is how he

Looks like Heroes-period Bowie

And his figure blocks the light

And he takes away the night

And he's dancing to the new bolero

 

Yo soy un pistolero

I'm not shakin' in my boots

I'm ruler of this moon, boy

So if you move I shoots

How hard can it be?

 

How hard can it be?

When you're a western star?

Shining and free

Don't you know that a star burns best?

How hard can it be?

And I said now

How hard can it be? [x2]

 

How hard can it be ?

 

Dancing to the new bolero (x4)

[Mr. Heartbreak]

Used to have a town but the factory moved away

Down to Mexico where they work for hardly any pay

Used to have a country but they sold it down the river

Like a repossessed farm auctioned off to the highest bidder

 

Mighty trucks of midnight

Moving on

Moving on

 

Wave a flag, wave the bible, wave your sex or your business degree

Whatever you want -- but don't wave that thing at me

The tide of love can leave your prizes scattered

But when you get to the bottom it's the only thing that matters

 

Mighty trucks of midnight

Moving on

Moving on

 

I believe it's a sin to try and make things last forever

Everything that exists in time runs out of time some day

Got to let go of the things that keep you tethered

Take your place with grace and then be on your way

[tkleist]

This is nothing like it was in my room

In my best clothes

Trying to think of you

This is nothing like it was in my room

In my best clothes

 

The English are waiting

And I don't know what to do

In my best clothes

This is when I need you

 

The English are waiting

And I don't know what to do

In my best clothes

 

I'm the new blue blood, I'm the great white hope

I'm the new blue blood

 

I won't fuck us over, I'm Mr. November

I'm Mr. November, I won't fuck us over

[repeat]

 

I wish that I believed in fate

I wish I didn't sleep so late

I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders

[repeat]

 

I'm the new blue blood, I'm the great white hope

I'm the new blue blood

 

I won't fuck us over, I'm Mr. November

I'm Mr. November, I won't fuck us over

[repeat]

 

I wish that I believed in fate

I wish I didn't sleep so late

I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders

[repeat]

 

I'm the new blue blood, I'm the great white hope

I'm the new blue blood

I won't fuck us over, I'm Mr. November

I'm Mr. November, I won't fuck us over

And ambitions are low

And the resentment rides high

But emotions won

I know you know what you know

But you should know by now that you're not me

Toffee-nosed wet weekend as far as I can see

She's my little rock 'n' roll

She's my little rock 'n' roll

The heat's raiding, the tracks is fading

Joints rocking could be anytime at all

But the bitch keeps bitching

Snitcher keeps snitching

Dropping names and telephone numbers and all

 

She's my little rock 'n' roll

She's my little rock 'n' roll

 

The scars healing

But the dealers squealing

The pool's in but the patio ain't dry

Well the sense is sensing

That the juice keeps pumping and I know why

 

She's my little rock 'n' roll

My tits and ass with soul baby

She's my little rock 'n' roll

She's my little rock 'n' roll

You got to shock them, show them

She's my little rock 'n' roll

Shock, shock, shock, oh my, my, my
