The Outsider by A Perfect Circle

Help me if you can
it's just that this is going away
i want it so quickly please,

help me understand what
i've given in to all the years
and this darkness i have known

lying to myself again
suicidal imbecile
think about it, put it on the faultline
what'll it take to get it through to you precious
come on to this, why do you wanna throw it away like this
such a *****, why do i wanna watch you

disconnect and self destruct one moment at a time
what's your rush now, everyone will have his day to die

medicated, drawn away, picture perfect, no more legiments
narcisistic, drawn away, craving fame and all this decadance

lying through your teeth again
suicidal imbecile
think about it, put it on the fautline
what'll it take to get it through to you precious
come to this, why do you wanna throw it away like this
such a *****, why do i wanna watch you

disconnect and self destruct one moment at a time
what's your rush now, everyone will have his day to die

they were right about you
they were right about you

lying to my face again
suicidal imbecile
think about it put it on the fautline
what'll it take to get it through to you precious
come on to this , why do you wanna throw it away like this
such a *****, come to this, come to this

disconnect and self destruct, one Moment at a time
what's your hurry, everyone will have his day to die
if you choose to pull the trigger, should your karma prove sincere,
do it somewhere far away from here

On the second day of Christmas my true love sent to me: 2 Turtle Doves,...

When Doves Cry
Prince

Dig if u will the picture
Of u and I engaged in a kiss
The sweat of your body covers me
Can u my darling
Can u picture this?

Dream if u can a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat
The heat between me and u

How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that's so cold? (So cold)
Maybe I'm just 2 demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father 2 bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry

Touch if u will my stomach
Feel how it trembles inside
You've got the butterflies all tied up
Don't make me chase u
Even doves have pride

How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world so cold? (World so cold)
Maybe I'm just 2 demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father 2 bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry

How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that's so cold? (A world that's so cold)
Maybe I'm just 2 demanding (Maybe, maybe I'm like my father)
Maybe I'm just like my father 2 bold (Ya know he's 2 bold)
Maybe you're just like my mother (Maybe you're just like my mother)
She's never satisfied (She's never, never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other (Why do we scream, why)
This is what it sounds like

When doves cry
When doves cry (Doves cry, doves cry)
When doves cry (Doves cry, doves cry)

Don't Cry (Don't Cry)

When doves cry
When doves cry
When doves cry

When Doves cry (Doves cry, doves cry, doves cry
Don't cry
Darling don't cry
Don't cry
Don't cry
Don't don't cry

DT8 ft. Roxanne Wild - Destination

You are the air I breathe
You are the earth beneath
You are my destination

You are the air I breathe
You are the earth beneath
I was your destination

Far, far away
I hear you call
Haunting yet beautiful
Refrain
You spy with your regretful eyes
Don't break my heart again in vain

Can't you wait for me, baby please?
Won't you wait for me, baby please?(x2)

You are the air I breathe
You are the earth beneath
You are my destination

You are the air I breathe
You are the earth beneath
I was your destination

You are the air I breathe
You are the earth beneath
You are my destination

You are the air I breathe
You are the earth beneath
I was your destination

You died inside
Jaded, I cry
Slave to our memories, no more

When you broke down
I hung around
Lonely but dignified
Stood my ground

Can't you wait for me, baby please?
Wont't you wait for me, baby please? (x2)

You are the air I breathe
You are the earth beneath
You are my destination
You are the air I breathe
You are the earth beneath
I was your destination
You are my destination

You are the air I breathe
You are the earth beneath
You are my destination

You are the air I breathe
You are the earth beneath
I was your destination

On The 3rd Day of Christmas My True Love Sent to Me, 3 French Hens,...

My Little Chicken
Adam Sandler

When I'm feeling down
And feeling sad
You come around
And make me glad
I got you
Oh, my little chicken

I love your feet
I love your breasts
I love the way you eat gravel
To help you digest
Oh, my little chicken

People say you're using me
In your heart you're a killer
But I know the worst
I should fear is
A slight case of salmonella
So lie right back
Don't you cry
If an egg can fit in there
Why can't I.....mmmmmmm
Oh my little

Bawk, Bawk, Bawk, Bawk
Bawk, Bawk, Bawk, Bawk
Bawk, Bawk, Bawk, Bawking Bawk,
Bawk, Bawk, Bawking Bawk

You're my love
My little chicken likes
To wear garter belts

This one is dedicated to MtG and the ever-lovely LTEC.


He Drinks Tequila
Sammy Kershaw and Lorrie Morgan

Everybody knows her,little Miss Rosa
The queen of the trailer park
Well,she's a hot pepper and you'll never forget her
If you ever let her break your heart
Senor Jose,works all day
Sweatin' in the red hot sun
Row after row,everybody knows
What they do when the weekend comes

He drinks tequila,and she talks dirty in spanish
Him in his sombrero,her in her purty pink jammies
The dance all night to the Mariachis
Till there ain't nobody left standin'
He drinks tequila,and she talks dirty in spanish

Well,the music is blarin' and the neighbors are starin'
That whole dang trailer is a-rockin'
Jose's a-howling,the Chihuahua's growlin'
And Rosie's peelin' off her silk stockings
"Yo Senora,kiss my body,a brasa mi puerta"
"Ay,yi yi yi yi,hoochie-coo,to dal ay nochay"

He drinks tequila,and she talks dirty in spanish
Him in his sombrero,her in her purty pink jammies
The dance all night to the Mariachis
Till there ain't nobody left standin'
He drinks tequila,and she talks dirty in spanish

He drinks tequila,and she talks dirty in spanish
Him in his sombrero,her in her purty pink jammies
The dance all night to the Mariachis
Till there ain't nobody left standin'
He drinks tequila,and she talks dirty in spanish

On the fourth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Four calling birds,...

Norwegian Wood (This Bird Had Flown)
The Beatles

I once had a girl, or should I say, she once had me...
She showed me her room, isn't it good, norwegian wood?

She asked me to stay and she told me to sit anywhere,
So I looked around and I noticed there wasn't a chair.

I sat on a rug, biding my time, drinking her wine.
We talked until two and then she said, "It's time for bed"

She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh.
I told her I didn't and crawled off to sleep in the bath

And when I awoke, I was alone, this bird had flown
So I lit a fire, isn't it good, norwegian wood.

Two For Tuesday; Sting

If You Love Somebody Set Them Free

If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone, you can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me

If you love somebody, set them free

If it's a mirror you want, just look into my eyes
Or a whipping boy, someone to despise
Or a prisoner in the dark
Tied up in chains you just can't see
Or a beast in a gilded cage
That's all some people ever want to be

If you love somebody, set them free

You can't control an independent heart
Can't tear the one you love apart
Forever conditioned to believe that we can't live
We can't live here and be happy with less
So many riches, so many souls
Everything we see we want to possess

If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone, you can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me

If you love somebody, set them free

If I Ever Lose My Faith In You

You could say I lost my faith in science and progress
You could say I lost my belief in the holy Church
You could say I lost my sense of direction
You could say all of this and worse, but
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do

Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world
You could say I lost my faith in the people on TV
You could say I'd lost my belief in our politicians
Yhey all seemed like game show hosts to me
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
I could be lost inside their lies without a trace
But every time I close my eyes I see your face

I never saw no miracle of science
That didn't go from a blessing to a curse
I never saw no military solution
That didn't always end up as something worse, but
Let me say this first
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do

Diafana Krina

Vast Sad Antarctica

There were drunks whisper
Songs of love and loss
There where the dead turn
In their sleep and now and then weep

There where love has ended
And slowly fade the lamentations of the lost

There where your body they have haunted
Pathetic tourists of your life

Inside the bars where patrons take their own lives
Inside our best music
In the dark winters of our youth
Inside the bowels of the earth

starf*ckers, inc., nine inch nails.

my god sits in the back of the limousine
my god comes in a wrapper of cellophane
my god pouts on the cover of the magazine
my god's a shallow little b*tch trying to make the scene

I have arrived and this time you should believe the hype
I listened to everyone now I know that everyone was right
I'll be there for you as long as it works for me
I play a game
it's called insincerity

I am every f*cking thing and just a little more
I sold my soul but don't you dare call me a whore

all our pain
how did we ever get by without you?
you're so vain
I bet you think this song is about you
don't you?

now I belong I'm one of the chosen ones
now I belong I'm one of the beautiful ones

runier, nine inch nails.

you had all of them on your side, didn't you?
you believe in all your lies, didn't you?
the ruiner's got a lot to prove he's got nothing to lose and now he made you
believe
the ruiner's your only friend well he's the living end to the cattle he
deceives
the raping of the innocent you know the ruiner ruins everything he sees
now the only pure thing left in my ****ing world is wearing your disease
how did you get so big?
how did you get so strong?
how did you get so hard?
how did you get so long?
you had to give them all a sign, didn't you?
you had to covet what was mine, didn't you?
the ruiner's a collector he's an infector serving his **** to his flies
maybe there will come a day when those that you keep blind will suddenly
realize
maybe it's a part of me you took to a place I hoped it would never go
and maybe that ****ed me up so much more than you'll ever know
how did you get so big?
how did you get so strong?
how did you get so hard?
how did you get so long?
what you gave to me
my perfect ring of scars
you know I can see what you really are
you didn't hurt me nothing can hurt me
you didn't hurt me nothing can stop me now

Muse

Time is running out

i think i'm drowning
asphyxiated
i wanna break this spell
that you've created

you're something beautiful
a contradiction
i wanna play the game
i want the friction

you will be the death of me
you will be the death of me

bury it
i won't let you bury it
i won't let you smother it
i won't let you murder it

our time is running out
our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out

i wanted freedom
bound and restricted
i tried to give you up
but i'm addicted

now that you know i'm trapped
sense of elation
you'd never dream of
breaking this fixation

you will squeeze the life out of me

bury it
i won't let you bury it
i won't let you smother it
i won't let you murder it

and our time is running out
and our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out
how did it come to this?
ooooohh

you will suck the life out of me

bury it
i won't let you bury it
i won't let you smother it
i won't let you murder it

and our time is running out
and our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out
how did it come to this?
ooooohh

I Love How You Love Me Lyrics
Paris Sisters


I love how your eyes close whenever you kiss me
And when I'm away from you I love how you miss me
I love the way you always treat me tenderly
But, darling, most of all I love how you love me.(love how you love me)
I love how your heart beats whenever I hold you
I love how you think of me without being told to
I love the way your touch is always heavenly
But, darling, most of all I love how you love me (love how you love me)

< I love how your eyes close whenever you kiss me
And when I'm away from you I love how you miss me>
I love the way your touch is always heavenly
But, darling, most of all I love how you love me (love how you love me)
I love how you hug me (love how you hug me)
I love how you squeeze me, tease me, please me
Love---how you love me
I love how you love me.

On the fifth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Five golden rings,...

GOLDMINE
Pointer Sisters


Flowers arrive
Who else whould think of that but my guy
He's all heart and all mine
Ooh, and I don't have to be Miss Perfect One
For him to love what he sees
I can feel it in the little things he does
What I found he's every woman's dream

My baby he's a goldmine
Ooh, what he does just keeps my heart in love
My baby he's a goldmine
Ooh, all he does just keeps me here in love

Five times a day
He calls me up to say, "How ya doin' babe"
He's just that way
Leaves me little notes by my coffee cup
The sweetest poetry to me
Ooh and every night he tells me with his touch
The way he moves just makes me want to scream

His eyer were fire, my heart was cold
My arms were ready for new love to hold
He makes me feel something that I've never known
When you find someone like him, you don't let go

Girl's got a goldmine and he's so fine
Girl's got a goldmine and he's all mine
Baby's got a goldmine, treats me so kind
Loves me rain or shine
My baby's divine

I can feel the little things that he does
What I found is every woman's dream

Triple Shot Thursday; Jan and Dean

Dead Man's Curve


I was cruisin' in my Stingray late one night
When an XKE pulled up on the right
And rolled down the window of his shiny new Jag
And challenged me then and there to a drag
I said, "you're on, buddy, my mill's runnin' fine
Let's come off the line, now, at Sunset and Vine
But I'll go you one better if you've got the nerve
Let's race all the way
To Dead Man's Curve"

Chorus:

Dead Man's Curve, it's no place to play
Dead Man's Curve, you must keep away
Dead Man's Curve, I can hear 'em say:
"Won't come back from Dead Man's Curve"

The street was deserted late Friday night
We were buggin' each other while we sat out the light
We both popped the clutch when the light turned green
You shoulda heard the whine from my screamin' machine
I flew past LaBrea, Schwab's, and Crescent Heights
And all the Jag could see were my six taillights
He passed me at Doheny then I started to swerve
But I pulled her out and there we were
At Dead Man's Curve

Partial chorus:

Dead Man's Curve, it's no place to play
Dead Man's Curve

Dramatic interlude:

Well - the last thing I remember, Doc, I started to swerve
And then I saw the Jag slide into the curve
I know I'll never forget that horrible sight
I guess I found out for myself that everyone was right

"Won't come back from Dead Man's Curve"

[repeat chorus to fade]

THE LITTLE OLD LADY (FROM PASADENA)


It's the little old lady from Pasadena

The little old lady from Pasadena
(Go, Granny, go, Granny, go Granny go)
Has a pretty little flower bed of white gardenias
(Go, Granny, go, Granny, go Granny go)
But parked in a rickety old garage
Is a brand new, shiny red Super Stock Dodge

CHORUS:
And everybody's sayin' that there's nobody meaner
Than the little old lady from Pasadena
(She drives real fast and she drives real hard)
She's the terror of Colorado Boulevard

It's the little old lady from Pasadena
If you see her on the street don't try to choose her
(Go, Granny, go, Granny, go Granny go)
You might drive a goer but you'll never lose her
(Go, Granny, go, Granny, go Granny go)
Well, she's gonna get a ticket now sooner or later
'Cause she can't keep her foot off the accelerator

CHORUS

MUSICAL INTERLUDE

(Go, Granny, go, Granny, go Granny go)
(Go, Granny, go, Granny, go Granny go)
The guys come to race her for miles around
But she'll give 'em a length and then she'll shut 'em down

CHORUS

Go, Granny, go, Granny, go Granny go *REPEAT 6 TIMES

Surf City


Two girls for every boy

I bought a '30 Ford wagon and we call it a woodie (Surf City, here we come)
You know it's not very cherry, it's an oldie but a goodie (Surf City, here we come)
Well, it ain't got a back set or a rear window
But it still gets me where I wanna go

And we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one
You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun
You know we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one
You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun, now
Two girls for every boy

You know they never roll the streets up 'cause there's always somethin' goin' (Surf City, here we come)
You know they're either out surfin' or they got a party growin' (Surf City, here we come)
Yeah, and there's two swingin' honeys for every guy
And all you gotta do is just wink your eye

And we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one
You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun
You know we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one
You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun, now
Two girls for every boy

And if my woody breaks down on me somewhere on the surf route (Surf City, here we come)
I'll strap my board to my back and hitch a ride in my wetsuit (Surf City, here we come)
And when I get to Surf City I'll be shootin' the curl
And checkin' out the parties for a surfer girl

And we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one
You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun
You know we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one
You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun, now
Two girls for every boy

On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Six geese a-laying, ...

Wild Geese
Cliff Richards

Look at the golden dawn
See the sunset
On the silver thorn
Just remember
It was all for you and me
High on the ragged hill
He was dying
And He's dying still
Oh my Lord
You were born to set men free
And the mission bells are ringing
As the prisoner finds release
And the Love we knew is returning
Like wild geese

And the signal fires are burning
For the everlasting peace
And the Love we knew is returning
Like wild geese

Only the closest heart
Could believe that love's
A dying art
After all the
Hungry mouths He fed
Eyes on the gentle one
Looked for the kindness
But they gave Him none
Not a sip of wine
Or a crust of bread


And the mission bells are ringing
As the prisoner finds release
And the Love we knew is returning
Like wild geese

And the signal fires are burning
For the everlasting peace
And the Love we knew is returning
Like wild geese

[SlowwHand]

On the seventh day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Seven swans a-swimming, ..

T-Rex
Ride A White Swan

Ride it on out like a bird in the sky way,
Ride it on out like you were a bird,
Fly it all out like an eagle in a sunbeam
Ride it all out like you were a bird.
Wear a tall hat like a Druid in the old days,
Wear a tall hat and a tattooed gown,
Ride a white swan like the people of the Beltane,
Wear your hair long babe, you can't go wrong
Catch a bright star and place it on you forehead,
Say a few spells and there you go.
Take a black cat and sit it on you shoulder
And in the morning you'll know all you know.
