  • Shapes of Things
    The Yardbirds

    Shapes of things before my eyes,
    Just teach me to despise.
    Will time make men more wise?
    Here within my lonely frame,
    my eyes just heard my brain.
    But will it seem the same?

    (Come Tomorrow) Will I be older?
    (Come Tomorrow) May be a soldier.
    (Come Tomorrow) May I be bolder than today?

    Now the trees are almost green.
    But will they still be seen?
    When time and tide have been.
    Fall into your passing hands.
    Please don't destroy these lands.
    Don't make them desert sands.

    Chorus, Lead.

    Soon I hope that I will find,
    Thoughts deep within my mind.
    That won't displace my kind.
    Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

      • Alanis Morissette - You Owe Me Nothing In Return

        I'll give you countless amounts of outright acceptance if you want it
        I will give you encouragment to choose the path you want if you need it
        You can speak of anger and doubts, your fears and freak-outs and I'll hold it
        You can share your so-called "shamefilled" accounts of times in your life and I
        won't judge it
        And there are no strings attached to it

        You owe me nothing for giving the love that I give
        You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have
        I give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilege,
        and you owe me nothing in return

        You can ask for space for yourself and only yourself and I'll grant it
        You can ask for freedom as well or time to travel and you'll have it
        You can ask to live by yourself or love someone else and I'll support it
        You can ask for anything you want, anything at all and I'll understand it
        And there are no strings attached to it

        You owe me nothing for giving the love that I give
        You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have
        I give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilege,
        and you owe me nothing in return

        I bet you're wondering when the next payback shoe will eventually drop
        I bet you're wondering when my condition or police will force you to cough up
        I bet you're wondering how far you have now danced your way back into debt
        This is the only kind of love, as I understand it, that there really is

        You can express your deepest of truths, even if it means I'll lose you and I'll
        hear it
        You can fall into the abyss on your way to your bliss, I'll empathize with
        You can say that you'll have to skip town to chase your passion and I'll hear
        it
        You can even hit rock bottom, have a mid-life crisis and I'll hold it
        And there are no strings attached to it

        You owe me nothing for giving the love that I give
        You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have
        I give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilege,
        and you owe me nothing in return

        You owe me nothing for giving the love that I give
        You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have
        I give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilege,
        and you owe me nothing in return

        Pink - Just Like A Pill

        I'm lyin' here on the floor where you left me
        I think I took too much
        I'm crying here, what have you done?
        I thought it would be fun

        I can't stay on your life support, there's a
        shortage in the switch,
        I can't stay on your morphine, cuz its making me
        itch
        I said I tried to call the nurse again but shes
        being a little *****,
        I think I'll get outta here, where I can

        Run just as fast as I can
        To the middle of nowhere
        To the middle of my frustrated fears
        And I swear you're just like a pill
        Instead of makin' me better, you keep makin' me
        ill
        You keep makin' me ill

        I haven't moved from the spot where you left me
        This must be a bad trip
        All of the other pills, they were different
        Maybe I should get some help

        I can't stay on your life support, there's a
        shortage in the switch,
        I can't stay on your morphine, cuz its making me

            Still Of The Night


            In the Still of the Night
            I hear the wolf howl, honey
            Sniffing around your door
            In the Still of the Night
            I feel my heart beating heavy
            Telling me I gotta have more

            In the shadow of night
            I see the full moon rise
            Telling me what's in store
            My heart start aching
            My body start a shaking
            An' I can't take no more

            Now I just wanna get close to you
            An' taste your love so sweet
            An' I just wanna make love to you
            Feel your body heat

            In the Still of the Night
            In the Still of the Night

            In the heat of the day
            I hang my head down low
            An' hide my face from the sun
            Thru the light of the day
            Until the evening time
            I'm waiting for the night to come

            In the Still of the Night
            In the cool moonlight
            I feel my heart is aching
            In the Still of the Night

            In the Still of the Night
            I hear the wolf howl, honey
            Sniffing around your door
            In the Still of the Night
            I feel my heart beating heavy
            Telling me I gotta have more

            Crying In The Rain


            A black cat moans
            When he's burning with the fever
            A stray dog howls
            When he's lonely in the night
            A woman goes crazy
            With the thought of retribution
            But, a man starts weeping
            When he's sick and tired of life

            I keep on dreaming dreams of tomorrow
            Feel I'm wasting my time
            Lighting candles in the wind
            Always taking my chances
            On the promise of the future
            But, a heart full of sorrow
            Paints a lonely tapestry

            The sun is shining
            But, it's raining in my heart

            No one understands the heartache
            No one feels the pain
            Cause no one ever sees the tears
            When you're crying in the rain
            When you're crying in the rain
            Crying in the rain

            I can never deny
            All the sweet things I have tasted
            Though I've been mistreated
            I keep coming back for more
            I know where I'm going
            There's no hope of absolution
            I can't seem to separate
            The good times from the bad

            The sun is shining
            But, it's raining in my heart

            No one understands the heartache
            No one feels the pain
            Cause no one ever sees the tears
            When you're crying in the rain
            When you're crying in the rain

              everything you want now
              yeah you're pretty good looking

              so absurd and I don't wana
              be your toy just 'cause

              for a girl

              and this feeling's still gonna
              be around

                Strung Out

                i never had a reason to believe in anything i never had a cause that i could fight for i never had too much of anything to call my own a drunk mother and father of four all my life i grew up watchin' others dreams come true and how i waited for my day in the sun every day i worked harder and i got further in debt till i realized that day was never gonna come your written off lost cause sold us down the river got no hope to offer us tore down without grief what's a generation without a reason to believe they tore down all my walls and then they made all my hatred a crime debilitating us with all their complacency our thoughts become mundane our generation thinks the same our minds anesthetized by apathetic t.v. no wars to fight steel bridges won't burn the beliefs we uphold are lies we never learn the only hope for the future leaves us reason to grieve what's a generation without a reason to believe

                  Hot Patootie (BLess My SOUl) from the ROcky HOrror Picture SHow

                  Whatever happened to Saturday night?
                  When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright
                  It don't seem the same since cosmic light
                  Came into my life
                  I thought I was divine
                  I used to go for a ride with a chick who'd go
                  And listen to the music on the radio
                  A saxophone was blowing on the rock 'n' roll show
                  We climbed in the back seat
                  And really had a good time.

                  Hot patootie - Bless my soul
                  I really love that rock 'n' roll

                  My head used to swim from the perfume I smelled
                  My hands kinda fumbled with her white plastic belt
                  I'd taste her baby pink lipstick
                  And that's when I'd melt
                  She's whisper in my ear tonight she really was mine.
                  Get back in front and put some hair oil on
                  Buddy Holly was singing his very last song.
                  With your arms around your girl you try to sing along
                  You felt pretty good... WHOO!
                  Really had a good time.

                  • What about the accompanying flag?

                    Hard drive is smoked on brother's computer, can't copy and paste at library, so here's a little piece of passage from a childhood book of mine.
                    Substitute Ming and/or Rah The Ferret for weasel. They're all the same anyway.


                    But never tease a weasel,
                    not even once or twice.
                    A weasel will not like it,
                    and teasing isn't nice.

                    Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

                      To have you in these arms tonight
                      Baby I want you like the roses
                      Want the rain
                      You know I need you
                      Like a poet needs the pain
                      I would give anything
                      My blood my love my life

                      If you were in these arms tonight
                      I'd hold you
                      I'd need you
                      I'd get down on my knees for you
                      And make everything alright
                      If you were in these arms
                      I'd love you
                      I'd please you
                      I'd tell you that I'd never leave you
                      And love you till the end of time
                      If you were in these arms tonights

                      We stared at the sun
                      And we made a promise
                      A promise this world would never blind us
                      These are my words
                      Our words were our songs
                      Our songs are our prayers
                      These prayers keep me strong
                      It's what I believe
                      If you were in these arms tonight

                      If you were in these arms tonight
                      I'd hold you
                      I'd need you
                      I'd get down on my knees for you
                      And make everything alright
                      If you were in these arms
                      I'd love you
                      I'd please you
                      I'd tell you that I'd never leave you
                      And love you till the end of time
                      If you were in these arms tonights

                      Your clothes are still scattered
                      All over our room
                      This old place still smells like
                      Your cheap perfume
                      Everything here reminds me of you
                      And there's nothing that I
                      Wouldn't do to be in your arms

                      And these were our words
                      They keep me strong
                      I'd hold you
                      I'd need you
                      I'd get down on my knees for you
                      And make everything alright
                      If you were in these arms
                      I'd love you
                      I'd please you
                      I'd tell you that I'd never leave you
                      And love you till the end of time
                      If you were in these arms tonight

                        and you know it's hard to pretend.
                        Oh no, it's raining again

                        Oh no, it's raining again
                        You're old enough some people say
                        To read the signs and walk away
                        It's only time that heals the pain
                        And makes the sun come out again
                        It's raining again
                        Oh no, my love's at an end.

                        C'mon you little fighter
                        No need to get uptighter
                        C'mon you little fighter
                        And get back up again

                          Waterfall
                          nothing can harm me at all
                          My worries seem so very small
                          with my waterfall

                          I can see
                          my rainbow calling me
                          through the misty breeze
                          of my waterfall

                          Some people say
                          day-dreamings for all the, huh,
                          lazy minded fools
                          with nothin' else to do
                          So let them laugh, laugh at me
                          So just as long as I have you
                          to see me through
                          I have nothing to lose
                          'Long as I have you

                          Waterfall
                          don't ever change your ways
                          Fall with me for a million days
                          Oh, my waterfall

                            U2 - Where The Streets Have No Name

                            I want to run
                            I want to hide
                            I want to tear down the walls
                            That hold me inside
                            I want to reach out
                            And touch the flame
                            Where the streets have no name


                            I want to feel sunlight on my face
                            I see the dust cloud disappear
                            Without a trace
                            I want to take shelter from the poison rain
                            Where the streets have no name


                            Where the streets have no name
                            Where the streets have no name
                            We're still building
                            Then burning down love
                            Burning down love
                            And when I go there
                            I go there with you
                            It's all I can do


                            The city's aflood
                            And our love turns to rust
                            We're beaten and blown by the wind
                            Trampled in dust
                            I'll show you a place
                            High on a desert plain
                            Where the streets have no name


                            Where the streets have no name
                            Where the streets have no name
                            We're still building
                            Then burning down love
                            Burning down love
                            And when I go there
                            I go there with you
                            It's all I can do
                            Our love turns to rust
                            We're beaten and blown by the wind
                            Blown by the wind
                            Oh, and I see love
                            See our love turn to rust
                            We're beaten and blown by the wind
                            Blown by the wind
                            Oh, when I go there
                            I go there with you
                            It's all I can do
                            "Love the earth and sun and animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown . . . reexamine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency" - Walt Whitman

                              I can't believe the news today
                              Oh, I can't close my eyes
                              And make it go away

                              Broken bottles under children's feet
                              Bodies strewn across the dead end street
                              But I won't heed the battle call
                              It puts my back up
                              Puts my back up against the wall

                              There's many lost, but tell me who has won
                              The trench is dug within our hearts
                              And mothers, children, brothers, sisters
