Boogie Chillun
John Lee Hooker

Well my mama she didn't 'low me, just to stay out all night long, oh Lord
Well my mama didn't 'low me, just to stay out all night long
I didn't care what she didn't 'low, I would boogie-woogie anyhow

When I first came to town people, I was walkin' down Hastings Street
Everybody was talkin' about, the Henry Swing Club
I decided I drop in there that night
When I got there, I say, "Yes, people"
They was really havin' a ball!
Yes, I know
Boogie Chillun!

One night I was layin' down,
I heard mama 'n papa talkin'
I heard papa tell mama, let that boy boogie-woogie,
it's in him, and it got to come out
And I felt so good,
went on boogie'n just the same

Triple Shot Thursday; Tears For Fears

Shout

Shout
Shout
Let it all out
These are things I can do without
Come On
I'm talking to you
Come on
In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know
Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
Shout
They gave you life
And in return you gave them them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale
Shout
And when you've taken down your guard
If I could change your mind
I'd really love to break your heart
Shout

Everybody Wants To Rule The World

Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while sleep
We will find you
Acting on your best behaviour
Turn your back on mother nature
Everybody wants to rule the world
It's my own design
It's my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do I'll be right behind you
So glad we've almost made it
So sad they had fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world
I can't stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the world
Say that you'll never never never need it
One headline why believe it ?
Everybody wants to rule the world
All for freedom and for pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world

Advice For The Young At Heart

Advice for the young at heart
Soon we will be older
When we gonna make it work ?
Too many people living in a secret world
While they play mothers and fathers
We play little boys and girls
When we gonna make it work ?
I could be happy
I could be quite naive
It's only me and my shadows
Happy in our make believe
Soon...
And with the hounds at bay
I'll call your bluff
Cos it would be okay
To walk on tiptoes everyday
And when I think of you and all the love that's due
I'll make a promise, I'll make a stand
Cos to these big brown eyes, this comes as no surprise
We've got the whole wide world in our hands
Advice for the young at heart
Soon we will be older
When we gonna make it work ?
Love is promise
Love is a souvenir
Once given
Never forgotten, never let it disappear
This could be our last chance
When we gonna make it work ?
Working hour is over
And how it makes me weep
Cos someone sent my soul to sleep
And when I think of you and all the love that's due
I'll make a promise, I'll make a stand
Cos to these big brown eyes, this comes as no surprise
We've got the whole wide world in our hands
Advice for the young at heart

When we gonna make it work ?
Working hour is over
We can do anyhting that we want
Anything that we feel like doing
Advice...

PLEASE FORGIVE ME

Brian Adams

It still feels like our first night together,
Feels like the first kiss
It's getting better, baby,
No one can better this
Still holding on,
You're still the one
First time our eyes met,
Same feeling I get,
Only feels much stronger
I wanna love you longer
Do you still turn the fire on?


So if you're feeling lonely, don't
You're the only one I'll ever want
I only want to make it go,
So if I love you a little more than I should...


Please forgive me, I know not what I do
Please forgive me, I can't stop loving you
Don't deny me, this pain I'm going through
Please forgive me, if I need you like I do
Please believe me, (Oh believe it), every word I say is true
Please forgive me, I can't stop loving you


Still feels like our best times are together,
Feels like the first touch
Still getting closer, baby,
Can't get close enough
Still holding on,
You're still number one
I remember the smell of your skin,
I remember everything,
I remember all the moves
I remember you, yeah
I remember the nights, you know I still do


So if you're feeling lonely, don't
You're the only one I'll ever want
I only want to make it go,
So if I love you a little more than I should...


Please forgive me, I know not what I do
Please forgive me, I can't stop loving you
Don't deny me, this pain I'm going through
Please forgive me, if I need you like I do
Please believe me, (Oh believe it), every word I say is true
Please forgive me, I can't stop loving you


The one thing I'm sure of
Is the way we make love
The one thing I depend on
Is for us to stay strong
With every word and every breath I'm praying,
That's why I'm saying...


Please forgive me, I know not what I do
Please forgive me, I can't stop loving you
Don't deny me, this pain I'm going through
Please forgive me, if I need you like I do
Babe believe it, every word I say is true
Please forgive me, if I can't stop loving you
No, believe, I don't know what I do
Please forgive me, I can't stop loving you


I can't stop

Good Girls Go To Heaven - Meatloaf

When the wind is howling through your window pane
It's not the only pain of the night
Your burning up in your bed, you gotta fever of love
And there's not an antibody insight
Hey Jenny, Jenny why are you crying
There's a beauty of a moon in the sky
But I guess when you've been leading such a sheltered life
You never lift your head and look so high

You don't have a lot
But it's all that you've got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot
Fantisize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dreams

And no one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feel now
It ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Ooh now good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
I'll be praying
That the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere

When the sweat is sizzling
On you skin in the dark
And your desperate now for somewhere to turn

Every muscle's in rebellion
Every nerve is on edge
And every limb is being erotically burned

Hey Johnny, Johnny why are you shaking?
When a boy should do whatever he can
You've been nothing but an angel
Every day of your life And now you wonder what it's like to be bad

You don't have a lot
But it's all that you've got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot
Fantisize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dreams

And no one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you've been wanting to feel now
It ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good boys go to Heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere
Good boys go to Heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
I'll be praying
That the good boys go to Heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere

Every time I try and dream you
I can't beleive how hard it's been to
Conjure up your face and trace your body in the air
All the seconds go on forever
But the thirds and the forth ones are even better
And every time I do it just a little bit longer
Every time I dream, it's just a little bit stronger than
Real Life

And no one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feel now
It ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Ooh now good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
I'll be praying
That the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere

Swamp Song by

"My warning meant nothing.
You're dancing in quicksand.
Why don't you watch where you're wandering?
Why don't you watch where you're stumbling?
You're wading knee deep and going in.
And you may never come back again.

This bog is thick and easy to get lost in
when you're a stupid,dumb ass, beligerant ****er.

I hope it sucks you down.

Wander in and wandering.
Noone even invited you in.
But still you stumble in stumbling.
So suffocate
or get out while you can.

Noone told you to come.

I hope it sucks you down.

You and Your Friend by Snake River Conspiracy

In my dreams, I can see us in a tight embrace
Doin all the things that we never really did
I think I'm in love with you
Must we go run through our lives with our eyes closed
To the loving happiness that we can share
I think I'm in love with you and your friend
Honest I do, I can't see you and me and her without each other
And I hope you feel the same way too (you and me and her)
I spend all my time on the telephone line
Tryin to say it's right this time
Something that could change your mind
I know this is love and here before
Though I whisper somethin so sincere
Exactly what you want to hear
Now you know the things that I say when I'm swimming
Through the flood of all my desire can be so unclear
But I know I'm in love with you
In my dreams I still see us in a tight embrace
In spite of all the thing that people say when they stare that's how
I know I'm in love with you and your friend
Honest I do, I can't see you and me and her without each other
And I hope you feel the same way too
I Think i'm in love with you
I spend all my time on the telephone line
Tryin to say it's right this time
Something that could change your mind
I know this is love and the feeling fair
Though I whisper somethin so sincere
Exactly what you want to hear
Honest I do, I can't see you and me and her without each other
And I hope you feel the same way too
I think I'm in love with you (you and me and her)
I hope you feel the same way too
I think I'm in love with you (you and me and her)
I hope you feel the same way too
I hope that you can feel the same way too

Stormbringer
Deep Purple

Comin' out of nowhere
Drivin' like rain
Stormbringer dance
On the thunder again
Dark cloud gathering
Breaking the day
No point running
'Cause it's coming your way

Ride the rainbow
Crack the sky
Stormbringer coming
Time to die
Got to keep running
Stormbringer coming
He's got nothing you need
He's gonna make you bleed

Rainbow shaker
On a stallion twister
Bareback rider
On the eye of the sky
Stormbringer coming down
Meaning to stay
Thunder and lightning
Heading your way

Ride the rainbow
Crack the sky
Stormbringer coming
Time to die
Got to keep running
Stormbringer coming
He's got nothing you need
He's gonna make you bleed

Coming out of nowhere
Drivin' like a-rain
Stormbringer dance
On the thunder again
Dark cloud gathering
Breaking the day
No point running
'Cause it's coming your way

BEAUTIFUL LOSER
words and music by Bob Seger



HE WANTS TO DREAM LIKE A YOUNG MAN
WITH THE WISDOM OF AN OLD MAN.
HE WANTS HIS HOME AND SECURITY,
HE WANTS TO LIVE LIKE A SAILOR AT SEA.

BEAUTIFUL LOSER, WHERE YOU GOONA FALL?
YOU REALIZE YOU JUST CAN'T HAVE IT ALL.

HE'S YOUR OLDEST AND YOUR BEST FRIEND,
IF YOU NEED HIM, HE'LL BE THERE AGAIN.
HE'S ALWAYS WILLING TO BE SECOND BEST,
A PERFECT LODGER, A PERFECT GUEST.

BEAUTIFUL LOSER, READ IT ON THE WALL
AND REALIZE, YOU JUST CAN'T HAVE IT ALL.
...YOU CAN'T HAVE IT ALL, YOU CAN'T HAVE IT ALL,

OH, OH, ... CAN'T HAVE IT ALL.



HE'LL NEVER MAKE ANY ENEMIES,
HE WON'T COMPLAIN IF HE'S CAUGHT IN A FREEZE.
HE'LL ALWAYS ASK, HE'LL ALWAYS SAY PLEASE.



BEAUTIFUL LOSER, NEVER TAKE IT ALL
'CAUSE IT'S EASIER, FASTER WHEN YOU FALL,
YOU JUST DON'T NEED IT ALL
OH, OH, ... YOU JUST DON'T NEED IT ALL.

[Imran Siddiqui]

This is a wonderful song that I just can't get enough of. It's also pretty powerful:

Travelin' Soldier - performed by the Dixie Chicks
(written by Bruce Robison)

Two days past eighteen
He was waitin' for the bus in his army greens
Sat down in a booth at a café there
Gave his order to the girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gave him a smile
So he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talkin' to me I'm feelin' a little low
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go

So they went down and they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
I've got no one to send a letter to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you?

CHORUS:
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of the travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter says a soldier's coming home

So the letters came
From an army camp
In California then Vietnam
And he told his heart
It might be love
And all of the things he was so scared of
Said when it's gettin kinda tough over here
I think about that day sittin' down at the pier
And close my eyes and see your pretty smile
Now don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while

CHORUS

(Martie's fiddle break - Emily's dobro break)

One Friday night at a football game
The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang
A man said folks would you bow your heads
For the list of local Vietnam dead
Cryin' all alone under the stands
Was the piccolo player in the marching band
And one name read and no one really cared
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair

CHORUS

[Clear Skies]

DM:
Always remember how many friends you have here, and how many people are here for you whenever you need us. Just yell.

Lighthouse Family - High

When you're close to tears remember
Some day it'll all be over
One day we're gonna get so high
And though it's darker than December
What's ahead is a different colour
One day we're gonna get so high

And at
The end of the day
We'll remember the days
We were close to the edge
And we'll wonder how we made it through
And at
The end of the day
We'll remember the way
We stayed so close till the end
We'll remember it was me and you

'Cause we are gonna be forever you and me
You'll always keep me flying high in the sky of love

Don't you think it's time you started
Doing what we always wanted
One day we're gonna get so high
'Cause even the impossible is easy
When we got each other
One day we're gonna get so high

And at
The end of the day
We'll remember the days
We were close to the edge
And we'll wonder how we made it through
And at
The end of the day
We'll remember the way
We stayed so close to till the end
We'll remember it was me and you

'Cause we are gonna be forever you and me
You will always keep me flying high in the sky of love

The Voice
Justin Hayward, Moody Blues


Won't you take me back to school?
I need to learn the golden rule.
Won't you lay it on the line?
I need to hear it just one more time.
Oh Won't you tell me again?
Oh, Can you feel it?
Oh, Won't you tell me again
Tonight?
Each and every heart it seems
Is bounded by a world of dreams.
Each and every rising sun
Is greeted by a lonely one.
Oh won't you tell me again?
Oh Can you feel it?
Oh won't you tell me again
Tonight?

'Cos out on the ocean of life my love
There's so many storms we must rise above?
Can you hear the spirit calling
As it's carried across the waves?
You're already falling,
It's calling you back to face the music
And the song that is coming through,
You're already falling,
The one that it's calling you.

Make a promise, take a vow
And trust your feelings, it's easy now.
Understand the voice within
And feel the changes already beginning.
Oh won't you tell me again?
Oh Can you feel it?
Oh Won't you tell me again
Tonight?

And how many words have I got to say
And how many times will it be this way
With your arms around the future
And your back up against the past?
You're already falling, it's calling you
On to face the music
And the song that is coming through,
You're already falling,
The one that it's calling is you.

Each and every heart it seems
Is bounded by a world of dreams.
Each and every rising sun
Is greeted by a lonely one.
Oh Won't you tell me again?
Oh Can you feel it?
Oh won't you tell me again
Tonight?

[Plan9]

Good Riddance (time of your life) by Green Day

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road.
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to do.
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why.
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind.
Hang it on a shelf of good health and good time.
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial.
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.
I hope you had the time of your life.

I hope you had the time of your life

[self biased]

strange theory, creator.

Torn away from the life that made me kind
Left aside as you all watched me die
Shackled to the wall made out to be a beast
Just left me there with nothing to shield my pride

These are the reasons that I'm incomplete
Broken and bleeding I'm so obsolete
I decide
To realize
You're not a god

Born again you think that makes you better than me
That face you hide behind that empty wall you climb
Don't you believe in anything other that yourself?
I divide you all tightly bind you till I ascent

You better think again if you think I will suffer by your hand
I know now, I know now you're not what I thought you were
You're not a god
You're not my god

Believe It Or Not
Mike Post and Stephen Geyer



Look at what's happened to me,
I can't believe it myself.
Suddenly I'm up on top of the world,
It should've been somebody else.

Believe it or not,
I'm walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free eee eee.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me.

It's like a light of a new day,
It came from out of the blue.
Breaking me out of the spell I was in,
Making all of my wishes come true ue ue.

Believe it or not,
I'm walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free eee eee.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me.
