Through the Years
Kenny Rogers

I can't remember when you weren't there
When I didn't care for anyone but you
I swear we've been through everything there is
Can't imagine anything we've missed
Can't imagine anything the two of us can't do

Through the years
You've never let me down
You turned my life around
The sweetest days I've found
I've found with you
Through the years
I've never been afraid
I've loved the life we've made
And I'm so glad I've stayed
Right here with you
Through the years

I can't remember what I used to do
Who I trusted whom, I listened to before
I swear you've taught me everything I know
Can't imagine needing someone so
But through the years it seems to me
I need you more and more

Through the years
Through all the good and bad
I knew how much we had
I've always been so glad
To be with you
Through the years
It's better everyday
You've kissed my tears away
As long as it's okay
I'll stay with you
Through the years

Through the years
When everything went wrong
Together we were strong
I know that I belonged
Right here with you
Through the years
I never had a doubt
We'd always work things out
I've learned what love's about
By loving you
Through the years

Through the years
It's better everyday
You've kissed my tears away
As long as it's okay
I'll stay with you
Through the years

This Magic Moment
The Drifters
Written by Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman

This magic moment,
so different and so new
Was like any other until I kissed you
And then it happened,
it took me by surprise
I knew that you felt it too,
by the look in your eyes

Sweeter than wine
Softer than the summer night
Everything I want, I have
Whenever I hold you tight

This magic moment
while your lips are close to mine
Will last forever,
forever till the end of time

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm

Sweeter than wine
Softer than the summer night
Everything I want, I have
Whenever I hold you tight

This magic moment
while your lips are close to mine
Will last forever,
forever till the end of time

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Magic moment
Magic moment
Magic moment

Bad Religion - Drastic Actions

heard a word, suicide,
not from one, but from thousands that tried
the lawyer's wife and the teenage brat,
one thing in common, they all wanted out
and it's plain to see
it goes for you and it goes for me,
and all the screwed up little girls and boys
all thrown in without a choice
but I heard him say,
"I want out,
no complaints and no doubts, just a chance to go on"

I heard a word, suicide,
and not from one, but from thousands that died
want some attention and a little less regret, a teenage fluff, little threat
and there are those, there are those who think
that drastic actions will make them unique
it's really all the same,
that no one's happy and nobody's to blame
and the moral to this story is old
it's quite taboo, seldom told
the seed is reaped before it's sown,
a bad choice was never resolved

[Bereta_Eder]

enough with pancy lyrics!

Let's get ****ed up

The Cramps


Hey baby let's get fuuuucked up
Let's get ****ed up.
Let's get ****ed up.
Let's do some stuff.
And get ****ed up.
Yeah Tomorrow we'll feel like
we was hit by a truck but
Let's get ****ed up.

Goin' to a cockfight.
Burn witch, burn.
So All my stuff in hock might.
Never ever return.
Ooh Goin' to the brink of Oblivion.
Gonna need a shrink
to get back again.

Ah ha Let's get ****ed up
Let's get ****ed up.
Let's get ****ed up.
Let's do some stuff.
And get ****ed up.
Tomorrow we'll feel like
we was hit by a truck but
Let's get ****ed up.

Gonna get lowdown.
Gonna get keyed up.
Gonna go to town
and get beat up.
Gonna get way out.
To the drenaline
Gonna hit flameout.
When my head caves in.

****ed up
mmm, Slip on nocturnal shades.
head down to amateur night.
Do some purple haze.
And Probably lose some fight.
Get cool and casual.
Get really sent.
Dig some cruel and unusual
punishment.

Let's get ****ed up.
Let's get ****ed up.
Let's do some stuff.
And get ****ed up.
Tomorrow we'll feel like
we was hit by a truck but
Let's get ****ed up.

Excellent... This must be one of the most hostile things BR has written.

Bad Religion - Eat Your Dog

weak and sick, dying in the sand, no such thing as a promised land
don't lose faith in a better life -- reincarnation, poor excuse
you're dying you *******s, your religion can't help you now
dying and starving in the fields you used to plow
rotting bones in your barren fields
worshipped creature's supposed to heal
he won't save you and he won't save me
see what you want to see
hindu religion in the mind of a working joe,
starving and dying in the fields you used to know
you're tied and bound to a god's useless advice
bloated stomachs from aching diseases hold back the fight
in the end you'll return once more to die again
go on till you can't no more in non-eternal sin

[Bas]

And ofcourse, there's this classic.

Dead Kennedy's - Too Drunk To ****

Went to a party
I danced all night
I drank 16 beers
And I started up a fight

But now I am jaded
You're out of luck
I'm rolling down the stairs
Too drunk to ****

Too drunk to ****
Too drunk to ****
Too drunk, to ****
I'm too drunk, too drunk, too drunk
To ****

I like your stories
I love your gun
Shooting out truck tires
Sounds like loads and loads of fun

But in my room
Wish you were dead
You ball like the baby
In Eraserhead

Too drunk to ****
Too drunk to ****
Too drunk, to ****
It's all I need right now
Too drunk to ****

Too drunk to ****
Too drunk to ****
Too drunk, to ****
I'm sick soft gooey and cold
Too drunk to ****

I'm about to drop
My head's a mess
The only salvation is
I'll never see you again

You give me head
It makes it worse
Take out your ****in' retainer
Put it in your purse

I'm too drunk to ****
You're to drunk to ****
Too drunk to ****
It's all I need right now Oh baby
I'm melting like an ice cream bar
Oh baby

And now I got diarrhea
Too drunk to ****
Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah
Oooohhh

[Bereta_Eder]

Nice! and speaking of classics...


Strychnine

The Fuzztones

Some folks like water

some folks like wine

I like the taste
of straight strychnine

Well you may think it's funny,
that I like this stuff

Once you tried it
you can't get enough

Wine is red,
poison is blue

Strychnine is good
for what's ailin' you!

If you listen to what I say

You're gonna try
strychnine someday

make you jump,
it will make you shout

It'll even knock you out


Some folks like water,
some folks like wine

I like the taste
of straight strychnine

[Bereta_Eder]

and for something not so "cheery"!

Great orchestral - ambience piece of music this one.


Wish
Ten bridges burning

The leaves were falling early,
the year fortune looked away
Gold and green looked brighter then,
gold seems grey today

The hands of the clock
never went my way,
nothing ever did
So in the arms of indifference
is where I'm going to stay

Set the burning sails (horizon)
Time weighs more than gold (a heartbeat)
More than shoulders can bear
All the years aflame (we're yearning)
Burnmarks never fade (though we are)
Going nowhere fast

Have I lost you for the first time, it won't be the last
For I'll lose you everytime my dreams fall apart, to dust
I may have questions, I may have answers
But I sure don't have you
No one shakes an empty hand, let alone embrace the man

Set the burning sails (horizon)
Time weighs more than gold (a heartbeat)
More than shoulders can bear
All the years aflame (we're yearning)
Burnmarks never fade (though we are)
Going nowhere fast

Never walk away
Never turn your back on me
Never walk out on me

Set the burning sails (horizon)
Time weighs more than gold (a heartbeat)
More than shoulders can bear
All the years aflame (we're yearning)
Burnmarks never fade (though we are)
Going nowhere fast


Breathing barely audible while I watch you fighting sleep
But somewhere in the empty land, wolves among the sheep
And all the promises I've ever made
Seem to break at first touch
But that was then and all we've had is shattered for ever

[boann]

most excellent. we need some more varity

Triple Shot Thursday; Tim McGraw

The Cowboy In Me

I don't know why I act the way I do
Like I ain't got a single thing to lose
Sometimes I'm my own worst enemy
I guess that's just the cowboy in me

I got a life that most would love to have
But sometimes I still wake up fightin' mad
At where this road I'm heading down might lead
I guess that's just the cowboy in me

The urge to run, the restlessness
The heart of stone I sometimes get
The things I've done for foolish pride
The me that's never satisfied
The face that's in the mirror when I don't like what I see
I guess that's just the cowboy in me

The urge to run, the restlessness
The heart of stone I sometimes get
The things I've done for foolish pride
The me that's never satisfied
The face that's in the mirror when I don't like what I see
I guess that's just the cowboy in me

Girl I know there's times you must have thought
There ain't a line you've drawn I haven't crossed
But you set your mind to see this love on through
I guess that's just the cowboy in you

We ride and never worry about the fall
I guess that's just the cowboy in us all

My Next Thirty Years

I think I’ll take a moment, celebrate my age
The ending of an era and the turning of a page
Now it’s time to focus in on where I go from here
Lord have mercy on my next thirty years

Hey my next thirty years I’m gonna have some fun
Try to forget about all the crazy things I’ve done
Maybe now I’ve conquered all my adolescent fears
And I’ll do it better in my next thirty years

My next thirty years I’m gonna settle all the scores
Cry a little less, laugh a little more
Find a world of happiness without the hate and fear
Figure out just what I’m doing here
In my next thirty years

Oh my next thirty years, I’m gonna watch my weight
Eat a few more salads and not stay up so late
Drink a little lemonade and not so many beers
Maybe I’ll remember my next thirty years

My next thirty years will be the best years of my life
Raise a little family and hang out with my wife
Spend precious moments with the ones that I hold dear
Make up for lost time here ,In my next thirty years

In my next thirty years

Don't Take The Girl

Johnny's daddy was taking him fishin'
When he was eight years old
A little girl came through the front gate holding a fishing pole
His dad looked down and smiled, said we can't leave her behind
Son, I know you don't want her to go but someday you'll change your mind
And Johnny said "Take Jimmy Johnson, take Tommy Thompson, take my best friend Bo
Take anybody that you want as long as she don't go
Take any boy in the world
Daddy, please don't take the girl

Same old boy
Same sweet girl
Ten years down the road
He held her tight and kissed her lips
In front of the picture show
Stranger came and pulled a gun
Grabbed her by the arm Said "If you do what I tell you to, there
won't be any harm" And Johnny said "Take my money, take my wallet, take my credit cards
Here's the watch that my grandpa gave me
Here's the key to my car
Mister give it a whirl
But please don't take the girl

Same old boy
Same sweet girl
Five years down the road
There's going to be a little one, and she says it's time to go
Doctor says the baby's fine but you'll have to leave
'Cause his momma's fading fast and Johnny hit his knees
And there he prayed
Take the very breath you gave me
Take the heart from my chest
I'll gladly take her place if you'll let me
Make this my last request
Take me out of this world
God, please don't take the girl

Johnny's daddy
Was taking him fishin'
When he was eight years old

All I Wanna Do
by Jodi Smith

I wanna drive from New York to Paris
Let the sea breeze blow through my hair
Feel the wheels skip across the water
And when I get there
I wanna, fly to Rome on a magic carpet
Sip champagne by roman candlelight
Say a prayer in the Sistine chapel
But then sometimes


All I wanna do is know you're near me
There's no place that I'd rather be
I wanna feel your love around me
If you wanna know the truth sometimes you
Are all I wanna do

I wanna make a billion dollars
Give all my friends a million or two
I wanna leave my heart in San Francisco
If you leave yours, too, cause

All I wanna do is know you're near me
There's no place that I'd rather be
I wanna feel your love around me
If you wanna know the truth sometimes you
Are all I wanna do

Take me where I've never been
Like a feather in the wind
I can see forever when you are my view

All I wanna do is know you're near me
There's no place that I'd rather be
I wanna feel your love around me
If you wanna know the truth sometimes you
Are all I wanna do



--------------------------

Waiting on You


Baby tell me secrets you've been
Keeping to yourself
Always buying time and hiding
Your heart on a shelf
You don't have to live so lonely
Don't you know that right outside your door the…

Sun comes up moon goes down
Days unwind - world keeps turning
Time and chance passing you by
I'm waiting on you
You to see how love leads
Straight to me - when you're ready
Just open your eyes
I'm waiting on you

I've learned some things don't come easy
Even when you try
(But) if you stop believing love will
Leave you left behind
Baby that old clock keeps tickin'
It doesn't care at all just what we're missin'

Sun comes up moon goes down
Days unwind - world keeps turning
Time and chance passing you by
I'm waiting on you
You to see how love leads
Straight to me - when you're ready
Just open your eyes
I'm waiting on you

Waiting - waitin' on you to love me

[SlowwHand]

GAMES PEOPLE PLAY
Joe South

Oh the games people play now
Every night and every day now
Never meaning what they say now
Never saying what they mean

And they wile away the hours
In their ivory towers
Till they're covered up with flowers
In the back of a black limousine

Chorus
La-da da da da da da da
La-da da da da da de
Talking 'bout you and me
And the games people play

Oh we make one another cry
Break a heart then we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die
That the other was to blame

Neither one will give in
So we gaze at our eight by ten
Thinking 'bout the things that might have been
It's a dirty rotten shame

Repeat Chorus

People walking up to you
Singing glory hallelulia
And they're tryin to sock it to you
In the name of the Lord

They're gonna teach you how to meditate
Read your horoscope, cheat your faith
And further more to hell with hate
Come on and get on board

Repeat Chorus

Look around tell me what you see
What's happening to you and me
God grant me the serenity
To remember who I am

Cause you've given up your sanity
For your pride and your vanity
Turns you sad on humanity
And you don't give a da da da da da

Repeat Chorus

[boann]

Chicago



Color My World

As time goes on, I realize
Just what you mean to me.
And now, now that you're near,
Promise your love that I've waited to share
And dreams of our moments together.
Color my world with hopes of loving you.

Heart In Pieces

Only you can touch me with your dark eyes
with a look that burns like fire through the lonely night.
Sometimes I run, but I can never hide
from the pieces of my heart that fall like rain from the sky.

When you hear the thunder,
when you hear the sound of a mountain crashing down,
it's just my heart in pieces.
When I feel the hunger,
when I'm reaching out with a hundred thousand hands,
it's my heart in pieces.


No one cuts through my soul like you can.
I'm naked to the bone beside your empty hand.
I see your face and I remember.
I'm a prisoner of your fate,
I'm a loser in the race.


When you hear the thunder,
when you hear the sounds of a mountain crashing down,
it's just my heart in pieces.
When I feel the hunger,
when I'm reaching out with a hundred thousand hands,
it's my heart in pieces.


I walk the fine line
between fire and the ice.
The memory lives on.
There's always something to remind me.
Every teardrop falling
when your voice keeps calling.

----------------------------------------------


I Dont Wanna Live Without Your Love

Thought it wouldn't matter if we didn't stay together,
And if it was over, maybe it was for the better.
I was thinking I'd be all right, 'til I thought it all through.
Now I know that I ain't really living if I have to live without you.

CHORUS:
I don't wanna live without your love,
I don't wanna face the night alone,
I could never make it through my life
If I had to make it on my own.
I don't wanna love somebody else,
I don't wanna find somebody new,
I don't wanna live without your love
I just wanna live my life with you.


Guess I had to go away, so much I had to go through.
Guess I had to lose you, to realize how much I love you.
Can we make the fire burn again, burn a little stronger?
Cause I've been alone, and baby I can't be alone now any longer.


CHORUS


If I had to make it on my own, my life would never be the same.
My love would never be the same.
Now I don't wanna live without your love.

[SlowwHand]

Hey Big Brother
Rare Earth
(Dino Fekaris and Nick Zesses)

(Chorus)
Hey big brother,
as soon as you arrive,
you better get in touch with the people, big brother,
and get them on your side, big brother,
and keep them satisfied.

Welcome to the beat of the city street,
walk on now and don't be shy.
Take a closer look at the people you meet,
and notice the fear in their eyes,
watching the time passing by.

(Chorus)

Focus your eye on the filthy sky,
just as far as you can see.
Everybody's gettin' kind of tired of waitin'
cos' nobody wants to cry,
and nobody wants to die.

(Chorus)

Now that you got the picture,
what you gonna do?
Now that you got the picture,
what you gonna do?
