Give us a Song! (lyrics thread)

We must have been stone crazy
When we thought we were just friends.
?ause I miss you, baby,
And I?e got those feelings again.
I guess I? all confused about you,
Chorus:
I feel so in love.
Oh, baby, what can I do?
I?e been thinking about you.
I?e been thinking about you
I?e been thinking about you
I?e been thinking about you, shi-pow-pow!

Suddenly we?e strangers,
I watch you walking away.
She was my one temptation,
Oh, I did not want her to stay
Deep down, I? still confused about you
Chorus:

What good is being here without you?

Londonbeat - I've Been Thinking About You
 
Give me light
give me action
at the touch of a button.
Flying through hyper-space
in a computer interface.
Stop - living on video
stop - integrated circuits.
Stop - sur un faisceau de lumieres
stop - is this reality?

Traveling in a light beam
laser rays and purple skies.
In a computer fairyland
it is a dream you bring to life.
Stop - living on video
stop - integrated circuits. . . .
Living on video - sur un faisceau de lumieres

I see your glitterring blue eyes
you look at me with a smile.
It's a computer fantasy
it is waiting for you and me.
Living - living on video
living - living on video

Living - living on video
living - living on video - stop. . . .

Revvin’ up your engine
Listen to her howlin’ roar
Metal under tension
Beggin’ you to touch and go
Highway to the danger zone
Ride into the danger zone
Headin’ into twilight
Spreadin’ out her wings tonight
She got you jumpin’ off the deck
And shovin’ into overdrive
Highway to the danger zone
I’ll take you
Right into the danger zone
You’ll never say hello to you
Until you get it on the red line overload
You’ll never know what you can do
Until you get it up as high as you can go
Out along the edges
Always where I burn to be
The further on the edge
The hotter the intensity
Highway to the danger zone
Gonna take you
Right into the danger zone
Highway to the danger zone
 
You can climb a mountain
You can swim the sea
You can jump into the fire
But you'll never be free

You can shake me up
Or I can bring you down
Oh-oh oh-whoa-oh-oh-ohoh
Oh-oh oh-whoa-oh-oh-ohoh

We can make each other happy
Oh we can make each other happy
We can make each other happy
we can make each other happy

You can climb a mountain
You can swim the sea
You can jump into the fire
But you'll never be free, no no

You can shake me up
Or I can bring you down
Whoa-oh oh-whoa-oh-oh-ohoh
Oh-oh oh-whoa-oh-oh-ohoh

We can make each other happy
Oh we can make each other happy
Oh we can make each other happy
we can make each other happy

Whaah

You can climb a mountain
You can swim the sea
You can jump into the fire
But you'll never be free, no no

You can shake me up
Or I can bring you down
Oh-oh oh-whoa-oh-oh-ohoh
Ohhh-oh oh-whoa-oh-oh-ohoh
Oh-oh oh-whoa-oh-oh-ohoh
Ohhh-oh oh-whoa-oh-oh-ohoh

We can make each other happy
We can make each other happy
We can make each other happy
we can make each other happy

Whaaahhhhh! Ohhh....
 
Takin' my time
Usin' my line
Tryin' to decide what to do
Looks my my stop
Don't wanna get off
Got myself hung up on you

Seems to me
You don't want to talk about it
Seems to me
You just turn your pretty head
And walk Away

Places I've known
Things that I'm growin'
Don't taste the same without you
I got myself in
The worst mess I've been
And I find myself startin' ta doubt you

Seems to me
We talk all night
Here comes the morning
Seems to me
You just ignore what was said
And greet the day

---- Instrumental Interlude ----
Seems to me
You don't wanna talk about it
Seems to me
You just turn your pretty head
And walk Away

I've got to cool myself down
Stompin' around
Thinking some words I can't name ya
Meet you halfway
Got nothin' to say
Still I don't 'spose I can blame ya

Seems to me
You don't wanna talk about it
Seems to me
You just turn your pretty head
And walk Away
Walk away
Walk Away

Walk Away - James Gang
 
When I became of age
My mama sat me down
Said, "son, you've grown up,
it's time you looked around"
So I began to notice
some things I hadn't seen before
That's what brought me here
knocking on your back door

A closet queen, the bus stop dream
she wants to shake my hand
I don't want to be there,
she decides she can
It's Apple Dan, he's just the man
to pick fruit off your branches
I can't sleep and he can't keep
his cattle on my ranches

Ohhh

Oh, yeah
Hey, yeah

...

It's too strong, something's wrong
and I guess I lost the feeling
I don't mind the games you play
but I don't like your dealing
God looked bad, the luck's been had
and there's nothing left to smoke
will I be back tomorrow
for the punchline of the joke?
Oh

Whoa-oh

James Gang "The Bomber"

Any idea how much of a pain in the ass it was to find these lyrics?
 
heh heh yea Inky!

Hey, look at the hooks

There ain't never a catch, all you got to do is snatch,

You need just enough of that sticky stuff
to hold the seams of your fine blue jeans.
I say yeah yeah.
I say yeah yeah.
There ain't never a catch, all you got to do is snatch,
do the velcro fly,
do the velcro fly.

Well, it feels so right when you squeezed it tight,
when you reach the end do it over again.
I say yeah yeah.

There ain't never a catch, all you got to do is snatch,
do the velcro fly,

TV dinners, there's nothin' else to eat
TV dinners, they really can't be beat
I like 'em frozen but you understand
I throw 'em in and wave 'em and I'm a brand new man, oh yeah

TV dinners, they're goin' to my head.
TV dinners, my skin is turnin' red
Twenty-year-old turkey in a thirty-year-old tin
I can't wait until tomorrow and thaw one out again, oh yeah

TV dinners, I'm feelin' kinda rough
TV dinners, this one's kinda tough
I like the enchiladas and the teriyaki too
I even like the chicken if the sauce is not too blue

and they're mine, all mine, oh yeah
and they sure are fine

gotta have 'em

gimme somethin' now

Brite Side

Whenever I collapse
Whenever I fold in your arms
That's when I know I'm holding you
Holding you within my grasp
Whenever I feel trapped
Held by the inescapable
I try to put my mind at ease
Protect the heart worn on my sleeve


Chorus: That's when I feel brand new
I'm looking on the brite side
I've got my visuals
I'm looking on the brite side
My 20-20's true
I'm looking on the brite side
That's when I know it's you


Whenever I'm in red
A guardian angel's flying round my head
I feel your touch warm as red's
Embarrassment innocence blush


Chorus: That's when I feel brand new
I'm looking on the brite side
I've got my visuals
I'm looking on the brite side
My 20-20's true
I'm looking on the brite side
That's when I know it's you


Whenever I'm in bed
I see myself in wide-screen love scene
Close-up
I'm holding you, holding you
We're wrapped in blue
I'm looking on the brite side
I'm looking on the brite side

Let's dance put on your red shoes and dance the blues
Let's dance to the song they're playin' on the radio

Let's sway while colour lights up your face
Let's sway sway through the crowd to an empty space

If you say run, I'll run with you
If you say hide, we'll hide
Because my love for you
Would break my heart in two
If you should fall
Into my arms
And tremble like a flower

Let's dance for fear your grace should fall
Let's dance for fear tonight is all

Let's sway you could look into my eyes
Let's sway under the moonlight, this serious moonlight

If you say run, I'll run with you
If you say hide, we'll hide
Because my love for you
Would break my heart in two
If you should fall
Into my arms
And tremble like a flower

Let's dance put on your red shoes and dance the blues
Let's dance to the song they're playin' on the radio

Let's sway you could look into my eyes
Let's sway under the moonlight, this serious moonlight

BOWIE - LETS DANCE
 
Since you're gone
The nights are gettin' strange
Since you're gone
Well, nothing's makin' any sense
Since you're gone
I stumbled in the shade
Since you're gone
Everything's in perfect tense, well
I can't help it
When you fall apart
And I can't help it
Guess you better start
That is forgettin' about you (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
Nights are gettin' strange (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
Thrownin' it all away (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
The nights are gettin' strange (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
Thrownin' it all away
I can't help it
Everything's a mess
I can't help it
You're so treacherous
When it comes, to tenderness
Since you're gone

I can't help it
Everything's a mess
I can't help it
You're so treacherous
Oh, where's that tenderness? (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
I missed the peak sensation (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
I took the big vacation (since you're gone)
Well, never feel sedate (since you're gone)
Well, the moonlight ain't so great (since you're gone)
Since you're gone (since you're gone)
Well, I've thrown it all away (since you're gone)
When the night (since you're gone)
Strange
I've thrown it all away (since you're gone)
Well, since you're gone (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
Since you're gone (since you're gone)
I've thrown it all away (since you're gone)…

System of a Down - Lonely Day


Such a lonely day
And its mine
The most loneliest day of my life

Such a lonely day
Should be banned
It's a day that I can't stand

The most loneliest day of my life
The most loneliest day of my life

Such a lonely day
Shouldn't exist
It's a day that I'll never miss
Such a lonely day
And its mine
The most loneliest day of my life

And if you go, I wanna go with you
And if you die, I wanna die with you

Take your hand and walk away

The most loneliest day of my life
The most loneliest day of my life
The most loneliest day of my life
Life

Such a lonely day
And its mine
It's a day that I'm glad I survived
 
Once I had a pretty girl
Her name it doesn't matter
She went away with another guy
Now he won't even look at her

Hats off to Larry he broke your heart
Just like you broke mine when you said we must part
He told you lies now it's your turn to cry cry cry
Now that Larry said goodbye to you

I know this may sound strange
I want you back I think you'll change
But there's one thing I gotta say

Hats off to Larry it may sound cruel
But you laughed at me when you said we were through
You told me lies now it's your turn to cry cry cry
Now that Larry said goodbye to you

Hats off to Larry it may sound cruel
But you laughed at me when you said we were through
You told me lies now it's your turn to cry cry cry
Now that Larry said goodbye to you

Del Shannon - Hat's Off to Larry
 
She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined love
It drips on down in a mist from above

She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want

You hear her calling everywhere you turn
You know you're headed for the pleasure burn
But the words get stuck on the tip of your tongue
She's the real thing but you knew it all along

She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want

Look at you with your mouth watering
Look at you with your mind reeling
Why don't we just admit it's all over
Just the girl u want

She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want

She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined lust
It drips on down in a mist from above

She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want

Look at you with your mouth watering
Look at you with your mind spinnin'
Why don't we just admit it's all over
Just the girl u want

She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want

I said go if you wanna go
stay if you wanna stay

I didn't care if you hung around me

I didn't care if you ran away.
And I know you were never right
I'll admit I was never wrong

I could never make up my mind
I made it up as I went along.
You know I treated you like a child

I'm gonna miss you for the rest of my life.

All I need is a miracle
all I need is you -
All I need is a miracle
all I need is you -
All I need is a miracle
all I need is you.

I've never had any time
and I never had any call

But I went out of my way just to hurt you

The one I shouldn't hurt at all.
I thought I was being cool
yeah
I thought I was being strong

But it's always the same old story

You never know what you had till it's gone.
If I ever catch up with you

I'm gonna love you for the rest of your life.

All I need is a miracle
all I need is you - . . .

If I ever catch up with you

I'm gonna love you for the rest of your life.

All I need is a miracle
all I need is you

I woke up this morning with a bad hangover
And my penis was missing again
This happens all the time
It's detachable
This comes in handy a lot of the time
I can leave it home when I think it's going to get me in trouble
Or I can rent it out when I don't need it

But now and then I go to a party
Get drunk
And the next morning I can't for the life of me
Remember what I did with it
First I looked around my apartment
And I couldn't find it
So I called up the place where the party was
They hadn't seen it either
I asked them to check the medicine cabinet
'Cause for some reason I leave it there sometimes
But not this time
So I told them if it pops up to let me know.

I called a few people who were at the party
But they were no help either
I was starting to get desperate
I really don't like being without my penis for too long
It makes me feel like less of a man
And I really hate to have to sit down every time I take a leak

After a few hours of searching the house
And calling everyone I could think of
I was starting to get very depressed
So I went to the Kiev and ate breakfast.
Then as I walked down Second Avenue toward St. Mark's Place
Where all those people sell used books and other junk on the street
I saw my penis lying on a blanket next to a broken toaster oven
Some guy was selling it
I had to buy it off him
He wanted 22 bucks but I talked him down to 17
I took it home
Washed it off
And put it back on
I was happy again
Complete
People sometimes tell me I should get it permanently attached
But I don't know
Even though sometimes it's a pain in the ass
I like having a detachable penis
 
ya good stuff huh Les

You keep me running round and round,
well that's alright with me,
Up and down, I'm up the wall,
I'm up the bloody tree.
That's alright with me,
Yeah, that's alright with me,
Well, it feels alight to me,
Yeah, it looks alright to me.

And, I'm so tall, I'm so tall,
You raise me and then you let me fall.
And I'm so small, I'm so small,
Wrap me round your finger, seen before.

Here we go

You keep me running round and round,
well that's alright with me,
Nothing, nothing, nothing's gonna
step in my way.
Living on the ceiling,
No more room down there.
Things fall into place,
you got the joke, fall into place.

Well I'm so tall, I'm so tall,
You raise me and then you let me fall.
And I'm so small, I'm so small,
Wrap me round your finger, seen before.

You keep me running round and round,
well that's alright with me,
Up and down, I'm up the wall,
I'm up the bloody tree.
Hiding from your questions,
Questions you won't ask.
"Why am I up the tree" you say,
"Why are you down there" I'm saying.

Well I'm so tall, I'm so tall,
You raise me and then you let me fall.
And I'm so small, I'm so small,
Wrap me round your finger, seen before.
