Give us a Song! (lyrics thread)

[tonksy]

i must be feeling like sharing...this one is very personal. this is how i want to be loved....hell, i think we all wanna be loved like this...

she's every woman - garth brooks.

she's sun and rain
she's fire and ice
a little crazy but it's nice
and when she gets mad
best leave her alone
cuz she'll rage just like a river
then, she'll beg you to forgive her
she's every woman that i've ever known.

she's so new york, and then LA
and every town along the way
she's every place that i've never been.
she's making love on rainy nights
she's a stroll through christmas lights
and she's everything i wanna do again.

it needs no explanation
cuz it all makes perfect sense
when it comes down to temptation
she's on both sides of the fence.
no, it needs no explanation
cuz it all makes perfect sense
when it comes down to temptation
she's on both sides of the fence.

she's anything but typical
she's so unpredictable
oh, but even at her worst
she ain't half bad
she's as real as real can be
and she's every fantasy
lord, she's every lover that i've ever had
and she's every lover that i've never had.

 

[SexyBoo]

This one is kind of cheesy, but it gets to me and really makes me cry sometimes...

Air Supply - Goodbye

I can see the pain living in your eyes
And I know how hard you try
You deserve to have so much more
I can feel your heart and I sympathize
And I'll never criticize all you've ever meant to my life
(Chorus)
I don't want to let you down
I don't want to lead you on
I don't want to hold you back
From where you might belong
You would never ask me why
My heart is so disguised
I just can't live a lie anymore
I would rather hurt myself
Than to ever make you cry
There's nothing left to say but good-bye
You deserve the chance at the kind of love
I'm not sure I'm worthy of
Losing you is painful to me
(Chorus)
I don't want to let you down
I don't want to lead you on
I don't want to hold you back
From where you might belong
You would never ask me why
My heart is so disguised
I just can't live a lie anymore
I would rather hurt myself
Than to ever make you cry
There's nothing left to say but good-bye
You would never ask me why
My heart is so disguised
I just can't live a lie anymore
I would rather hurt myself
Than to ever make you cry
There's nothing left to try
Though it's gonna hurt us both
There's no other way than to say goodbye

 

[tonksy]

i have two songs i want to post and they are pretty much different ends of the emotional spectrum...go figure.

first the sweet one.

thank you - led zeppelin

if the sun refused to shine, i would still be loving you
when mountains crumble to the sea, there would still be you and me

kind woman, i give you my all
kind woman, nothing more

little drops of rain whisper of the pain
tears of loves lost in the days gone by
my love is strong, with you there is no wrong
together we shall go until we die my, my, my
inspirations what you are to me
inspiration, look...see

and so today, my world it smiles
your hand in mine, we walk the miles
thanks to you it will be done
for you to me are the only one
happiness, no more be sad
happiness, i am glad

if the sun refused to shine, i would still be loving you
when mountains crumble to the sea, there would still be you and me


okay, now for the fun one...

why don't we get drunk and screw - jimmy buffet


i really do appreciate the fact you're sitting here
your voice sounds so wonderful, but your face don't look too clear
so barmaid bring a pitcher, another round of brew
honey, why don't we get drunk and screw?

why don't we get drunk and screw?
i just bought a waterbed, it's filled up for me and you
they say you are a snub queen, well, honey, i don't think that's true
so, why don't we get drunk and screw?

and then he just repeat stuff over and over, hell it's a drinking song ain't it? can't be too verbose...

eve6: heres to the night






So denied so I lied are you the now or never kind
In a day and a day love I'm gonna be gone for good again
Are you willing to be had are you cool with just tonight
Here's a toast to all those who hear me all too well

Here's to the nights we felt alive
Here's to the tears you knew you'd cry
Here's to goodbye
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon

Put your name on the line along with place and time
Wanna stay not to go I wanna ditch the logical
Here's a toast to all those who hear me all too well

Here's to the nights we felt alive
Here's to the tears you knew you'd cry
Here's to goodbye
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon

All my time is froze in motion
Can't I stay an hour or two or more
Don't let me let you go
Here's a toast to all those who hear me all too well

Here's to the nights we felt alive
Here's to the tears you knew you'd cry
Here's to goodbye
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon

 

[freako104]

here is gone by the goo goo dolls





You and I got something
But it's all and then it's nothing to me
And I got my defenses
When it comes to your intentions for me
And we wake up in the breakdown
Of the things we never thought we could be

I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
What do you got to move you darling
I thought I lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all

Chorus:
And I want to get free talk to me
I can feel you falling
And I wanted to be all you need
Somehow here is gone

I have no solution
To the sound of this pollution in me
And I was not the answer
So forget you ever thought it was me

I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
What do you got to move you darling
I thought I lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all

Chorus

And I don't need the fallout of all the past
That's here between us
And I'm not holding on
And all your lies weren't enough to keep me here

Chorus

And I want to get free talk to me
I can feel you falling
I know it's out there
I know it's out there
I can feel you falling
I know it's out there
I know it's out there
Somehow here is gone

[Raven]

<sigh> this song always makes me sad....

Its also my all time fave ever

 

[tonksy]

one of my favorite drinking songs.

the scotsman.

a scotsman clad in kilts, left the bar one evening fair
and one could tell by how he walked, he'd drank more than his share
he staggered on until he could no longer keep his feet
then stumbled off into the grass to sleep besides the street
oh ring-ding diddle diddle aye-de-oh
ring die diddle oh day
he stumbled off into the grass to sleep besides the street.

well, later on two young and lovely girls just happened by
and one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye
"oh see yon sleepy scotsman, so strong and handsome built
i wonder if it's true, what they don't wear beneath the kilt"
oh, ring ding diddle diddle aye=de=oh
ring die diddle oh day
i wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt.

so they crept up to the sleeping scotsman, quiet as could be
and they lifted up his kilt above the waist so they could see
and there, behold, for them to view, beneath his scottish skirt
was nothing more than god had graced him with upon his birth
oh, ring ding diddle diddle aye-de-oh
ring die diddle oh day
was nothing more than god had graced him with upon his birth.

well, they marvelled for a moment, then one said "we must be gone"
"but lets leave a present for our friend, before we move along"
so, as a gift, they left a blue silk ribbon, tied into a bow
around the bonnie star the scots kilt, lifted, showed
oh, ring ding diddle diddle aye-de-oh
ring die diddle oh day
around the bonnie star the scots kilt, lifted, showed.

when the scotsman woke to natures call, he stumbled toward the trees
behind the bush, he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees
and in a startled voice, he says to whats before his eyes
"my friend, i don't know where you've been,
but i see you've won first prize!"
oh, ring ding diddle diddle aye-de-oh
ring die diddle oh day
my friend, i don't know where you've been,
but i see you've won first prize!

The Macc Lads - All Day Drinking

Staggered in MaccDonald's on a Friday afternoon,
All the pubs were shut, there was knob all else to do.
I said: 'Give us a big mac, now, you spotty little twat.'
He said: ' Have a nice day, sir, would you like a paper hat?'
I said: 'Have a nice day, bollocks, where's me fucking mac? And I'll have a pint of root
beer in a proper fucking glass. If its some new bloody lager, I'll smash your nose into the
floor, I won't be drinking in MaccDonald's when they change the drinking laws.
Then I'll drink, drink, drink, 'til its coming out me ears, drink, drink, drink, 'til the pub runs out of beer, drink, drink, drink, 'til I can't take another sip, -all day drinking on an intravenous drip.
What's the point of drinking up at three-o-fucking clock? When there's decent hours in
Scotland, but that's all full of Jocks. The penny-pinching bastards have all got ginger hair,
and it takes an hour to buy a pint, you can't understand a word. And they're queuing up outside
the pub, waiting for a sale, bet they wished they put their bags on when it blows a fucking gale,
everyone will buy more beer when they change the drinking laws, they can spend the extra tax
they get, and mend that fucking Wall.'

Macc Lads - Newcy Brown


"How you doing, pal? Mind if I bother you? Me bird's buggered off in a BMW.
The cunt had a suit on, old enough to be her dad, I'd like to kick his bollocks
To Bollington and back."
Don't be a plank, she wasn't worth a wank, we'll go up town, we'll go down the Crown
You can buy a round of
Newcy Brown. There's loads more pebbles on the beach
Newcy Brown. There's loads more cobbles on the street
Newcy Brown. But did the bitch have massive tits?

"She was the best looking woman in all of Macclesfield,
She wouldn't talk to my pork, and her cunt lips were sealed
She couldn't give a shit about me, but she could give a toss
She had the best pair of melons I've ever come across."

Don't be a fool, she wouldn't suck your tool,
Don't be a clown, we'll go down the Crown, you can buy a round of
Newcy Brown. There's loads more carrots in the sick
Newcy Brown. There's loads more hairs around me dick
Newcy Brown. If the bag don't bonk then you fuck them off.

Don't fucking whinge, she had a sweaty minge, we've all banged her clout,
You're missing nowt, buy another round of
Newcy Brown. There's loads more insects on the dog
Newcy Brown. There's loads more pubes around the bog
Newcy Brown. I'd rather shag a colostomy bag.

[tonksy]

i've always thought this song said alot.

run around - blues traveller

oh, once upon a midnight dreary
i woke with something in my head
i couldn't escape the memory
of a phone call and of what you said

like a game show contestant with a parting gift
i could not believe my eyes
when i saw through the voice of a trusted friend
who needs to humor me and tell me lies
yeah, humor me and tell me lies

and i'll lie, too and say i don't mind
and as we seek so shall we find
and when you're feeling open, i'll still be here
but not without a certain degree of fear
of what will be with you and me
i still can see things hopefully
but you
why you wanna give me the run around?
it's a sure fire way to speed things up
when all it does is slow me down

and shake me and my confidence
about a great many things

but i've been there, i can see it cower
like a nervous magician waiting in the wings

of a bad play, where the heroes are right
and nobody thinks or expects too much
and hollywoods calling for the movie rights
singing, hey babe, let's keep in touch
hey baby, let's keep in touch

but i want more than a touch, i want you to reach me
and show me all the things no one else can see
so what you feel becomes mine as well
and soon, if we're lucky, we'll be unable to tell
whats yours and mine, the fishings fine
and it doesn't have to rhyme, so don't you feed me a line

but you
why you wanna give me the run around?
it's a sure fire way to speed things up
when all it does is slow me down

(this is my favorite part- these last parts.)

tra-la-labamba dear, this is the pilot speaking
and i've got some news for you
it seems my ship still stands, no matter what you drop
and there ain't a whole lot that you can do

oh sure, the banner may be torn, and the winds gotten colder
perhaps i've grown a little cynical
but i know no matter what the waitress brings
i shall drink in and always be full

oh, i like coffee and i like tea
i'd like to be able to enter a final plea
i've still got this dream that you just can't shake
i love you to the point you can no longer take

well, alright. okay, so be that way
i hope and pray that theres something left to say

but you
why you wanna give me the run around?
it's a sure fire way to speed things up
when all it does is slow me down

 

[chcr]

Blues Traveller, can that guy play the harmonica or what?

Anyone remember Gerry and the Pacemakers?

Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying

Don't let the sun catch you crying
The night's the time for all your tears
Your heart may be broken tonight
But tomorrow in the morning light
Don't let the sun catch you crying
The nighttime shadows disappear
And with that go all your tears, baby
For the morning will bring joy
For every girl and boy
Don't don't don't don't let the sun catch you crying
Oooo baby
You know that crying's not a bad thing
But stop your crying when the birds sing
Oh no no no
Oh yeah
Oooo oooo
Just don't forget that love's just a game
And it can always come again
So don't let the sun catch you crying
Don't let the sun catch you crying, baby
Tomorrow in the morning light
Everything gonna be all right
Tomorrow in the morning light
Everything gonna be all right
Tomorrow in the morning light
Everything gonna be all right
[repeat until fade]

 

[tonksy]

<SNIFF> thats a good one, chcr. and yes, john popper can play the heck out of a harmonica.

 

[tonksy]

this song makes me giggle.

she thinks my tractor's sexy - kenny chesney

plowin' these fields in the hot summer sun
over by the gate, lordy, here she comes
with a basket full of chicken and a big cold jug of sweet tea
i make a little room and she climbs on up
open up a throttle and stir a little dust
just looking at her face, she ain't a foolin' me

she thinks my tractors sexy
it really turns her on
she's always staring at me
while i'm chuggin' along
she likes the way it's pullin' while we're tillin' up the land
she's even kinda crazy 'bout my farmers tan
she's the only one who really understands what gets me
she thinks my tractors's sexy

we ride back and forth 'til we run out of light
take it to the barn, put it up for the night
climb up in the loft, sit and talk with the radio on
she said she's got a dream and i asked her what it is
she wants a little farm and a yard full of kids
one more teeny weeny ride before i take her home

she thinks my tractor's sexy
it really turns her on
she's always staring at me
while i'm chuggin' along
she likes the way it's pullin' while we're tillin' up the land
she's even kind of crazy 'bout my farmers tan
she's the only one who really understands what gets me
she thinks my tractor's sexy

well, she ain't into cars or pickup trucks
but if it runs like a deere, man her eyes light up

she thinks my tractors sexy
it really turns her on
she's always staring at me
while i'm chuggin' along
she likes the way it's pullin' while we're tillin' up the land
she's even kinda crazy 'bout my farmers tan
she's the only one who really understands what gets me
she thinks my tractor's sexy.

 

[tonksy]

this is a special one.

house of pain - faster pussycat

a little past suppertime
still out on the fornt steps, sitting on my behind
waitin' for you.

wondering if everything is alright.
momma said "come in boy what a waste of time" i said "i got time"
"well, he'll be here soon"

five years old and talking to myself
where were you? where'd you go?
daddy, can't you tell?
(chorus)
i'm not trying to fake it and i ain't the one to blame
there's no one home in my house of pain
i didn't write these pages and my scripts been rearranged
no, theres no one home in my house of pain

wasn't i worth the time?
a boy needs a daddy like a dance to mime, and all the time
i looked up to you.

i paced a million times
but all i ever got was one big line, the same old lie
how could you?

well, i was eighteen and still talking to myself
where were you? where'd you go?
daddy, can't you tell?

chorus twice

and i'm alone again...

(spoken voice) well, if i learned anything from this...it's how to live on my own.

 

[freako104]

another gwar song




I'm the manager with the mostest
I clear the profits from the concert grosses
I make it snow up GWAR noses, so now they follow me like I'm Moses
I'm not a Jew but God has chose us
So now I'm sitting on the riches of Croesus
I'm Sleazy and I think you outta know this!
The girlies love me cause I wear the right clotheses
They see the bulges when I strike the right poses
Pull my pants down and you ask me can you blow this
I say yes if you want halitosis
I can't help my pork's got trigonosis
I been plookin' a shoney's hostess
I'm Sleazy and I think you outta know this!
Everybody rip everybody else off
Everybody rip everybody else off
Everybody rip everybody else off
Everybody rip, rip everybody off
Think you outta know this!
Their trying something that they hope you don't notice
A moral oligarchy that is bogus
You know you're there when your family is homeless
You'll be beat in the streets with hoses
The grays are waiting underground while they clone us
They got a deal with the Masons to dispose us
Toxic waste causes cancer by osmosis
H.I.V. is crawling up your hoses
I'm the man with the guts to expose this
And people follow me like I'm Moses
So before you think it's hopeless
I'll start a coup right under their noses
Now they know that they can't control us
So don't forget the man who broke this
I'm Sleazy and I think you outta know this!

 

[freako104]

rest in pieces by saliva



Rest In Pieces
Look at me, my depth perception must be off again
Cause this hurts deeper than I thought it did
It has not healed with time
It just shot down my spine _ You look so beautiful tonight
Remind me how you laid us down
And gently smiled before you destroyed my life
Would you find it in your heart
To make this go away
And let me rest in pieces
Would you find it in your heart?
To make this go away
And let me rest in pieces
Would you find it in your heart?
To make it go away
And let me rest in pieces
Look at me, my depth perception must be off again
You got much closer than I thought you did
I'm in your reach
You held me in your hands
But could you find it in your heart?
To make this go away
And let me rest in pieces
Would you find it in your heart?
To make it go away
And let me rest in

 

[tonksy]

here's one to snap your fingers to:

i love a rainy night - eddie rabbit

well, i love a rainy night (2x)
love to hear the thunder
watch the lightening
when i lights up the sky
you know, i makes me feel good
well i love a rainy night
it's sucha beautiful sight
love to feel the rain on my face
to taste the rain on my lips
in the moonlight shadow

showers wash all my cares away
i wake up to a sunny day
yes, i love a rainy night
well, i love a rainy night (2x)
repeat

puts a song in this heart of mine
puts a smile on my face everytime
cuz i love a rainy night
yes i love a rainy night
ooh i love a rainy night
yeah l love a rainy night.

 

[tonksy]

this is so sad, who hasn't been here?

you were meant for me - jewel

i hear the clock, it's 6am, i feel so far from where i've been
i got my eggs, my pancakes, too,
got my maple syrup, everything but you
i break the yolks and make a smilie face,
i kinda like it in my brand new place.
i wipe the spots off of the mirror, don't leave my keys in the door
i never put wet towels on the floor anymore
(chorus)
cause dreams last so long, even after you're gone
i know you love me and soon i know you will see
you were meant for me and i was meant for you.

called my momma, she was out for a walk
consult a cup of coffee, but it didn't wanna talk
so, i pick up the paper, it was more bad news
more hearts being broken or people being used
put on my coat in the pouring rain
i saw a movie, it just wasn't the same
cause it was happy or i was sad
it made me miss you, oh so bad..
i go about my business, i'm doing fine
besides, what would i say if i had you on the line?
same old story, not much to say
hearts get broken everyday...
i brush my teeth and put the cap back on
i know you hate it, when i leave the light on
i pick up a book and turn the sheets down
take a deep breath and a good look around
put on my pj's and hop into bed
i'm half alive, but i feel mostly dead
i try to tell myself it'll be alright
i shouldn't think anymore tonight
(chorus)

you were meant for me and i was meant for you.
