You Can Tell Everybody, This Is Your Song - Lyrics

[Stefan Härtel]

Yeah, but Since You Been Gone was already in the Graham Bonnet era (1979). I agree that RJD is a great singer, however, and it was during his time that Rainbow had their prime.

Song:One Angry Dwarf and 200 Solemn Faces (live at 9:30 Club)
Artist:Ben Folds
-------------------------------------

September '75
I was 47 Inches high
my mom said by Christmas I would have
a bad-ass mother G.I Joe
for you little minds to blow
I still got beat up after class - yeah!
Now I'm big and important
one angry dwarf and
200 solem faces are you
if you really want to see me
check the papers and the tv
looks who's telling who what to do
Kiss my ass
goodbye
so don't give me that bull****
you know who I am
I'm your nightmare little man
Vic you stole my lunch money made me cry
Jane remember second grade?
Said you couldn't stand my face
rather than kiss me you said you'd rather die
Now I'm big and important
one angry dwarf and
200 solem faces are you
if you really want to see me
check the papers and the tv
looks who's telling who what to do
Yeah - Kiss my ass
Goodbye
Awwwwwww ****
You'll be sorry one day
yeah you will - yes you will
you shouldn't push me around
cause I will - yes I will
you will be sorry when I'm big
yes you will - yes you will
you will be sorry
'cause I'm big and important
one angry dwarf and
200 solem faces are you
if you really want to see me
check the papers check the tv
oh, no, looks who's telling who what to do
kiss my ass - mother****er

INCUBUS
Clean
Today, everything was fine.
Until roundabout, quarter to nine
I suddenly found myself in a bind.
Was it something I said?
Something I read and manifested that's getting you down.
DOn't you dare come to bed with that ambiguous look in your eye, I'd sonner sleep by an open fire and wake up fried.

Say what you will, say what you mean.
You could never offend, your dirty words come out clean.
Tomorrow, what price will I pay?

Could I make it all up to you by serving coffee for two in bed?
Would you then gimme the time of day?
I need a map of your head, translated into English so I can learn to not make you frown.
You'd feel better if you'd vent, put your frustrations into four letter words annd let them out on mine, the most weathered ears in town.

So say what you will, say what you mean.
you could never offend, your dirty words come out clean.

Black Coffee

Yer!
Black coffee is my name
Black coffee is not a thing
Black coffee freshly ground and fully packed
Hot black coffee boys
Black coffee
That's where it's at
Mean it!
Way back you all know
Since I don't know when
See I got to move on
Before I was 10
You see my skin is white
But my soul is black
So hot black coffee
That's where it's at
Black coffee
That's what I'm talkin' about boys
Black coffee
That's what I mean
Black coffee
Ooh! You've got to feel it in your hand
Black coffee
Hmm! Yer!
Black coffee
Well you hear that
Some black tea
Well it can't compare with me
That's right
Black tea well it's as good as
It's as good as
It's as good as it can be
But it's a cup of black coffee
That a working man needs to see yer
In America, well it's the land of the free
You can get what you want if you've got some do re me
Travelling far and I work like a slave
Now how can you get and you know I get L.A.
I get me a job and I build me a place
I got a spit of black coffee
Oh! How good it tastes!
I said a dime is all it costs in the states
For a cup of black coffee
How good it tastes!
Black coffee
Alright
Black coffee
Oh!
Black coffee
It's what I want now
It's what I need
Black coffee
To suit my soul
To suit my soul now
Black coffee
It's what I want

Black coffee
It's where it's at
It's where it's at
Black coffee

One-eyed Trouser-Snake Rumba

I wanna know what you're living for
Are you the kinda girl that lives rather low

Throw away your troubles baby, gimme more

Gimme more, yeah, gimme more of that loving
Gimme more, oh oh, I want more

[Al B. Sure!]

another year of putting up the lyrics of bad songs?

[SlowwHand]

No, another year of you running your mouth, but contributing nothing.

A Philly thing, it would appear.

[Al B. Sure!]

[SlowwHand]

Albert, you really don't want to start with me.
You really don't.

[Al B. Sure!]

i think i can handle it, old man... try me. that is, when you're not busy beating your mexican slaves.

[SlowwHand]

Albert, I've had worse on my eyeball than the mere you.

Emotion
Samantha Sang

It's over and done
But the heartache lives on inside
And who's the one you're clinging to
Instead of me tonight

And where are you now
Now that I need you
Tears on my pillow
Wherever you go

I'll cry me a river
That leads to your ocean
You never see me fall apart
In the words of a broken heart

It's just emotion that's taken me over
Tied up in sorrow, lost in my soul
But if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
You know that there'll be nobody left in this world to hold me tight
Nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight

I'm there at your side
I'm part of all the things you are
But you've got a part of someone else
You've got to find your shining star

And where are you now
Now that I need you
Tears on my pillow
Wherever you go

I'll cry me a river
That leads to your ocean
You never see me fall apart
In the words of a broken heart

It's just emotion that's taken me over
Tied up in sorrow, lost in my soul
But if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
You know that there'll be nobody left in this world to hold me tight
Nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight

Janie Jones
The Clash

He's in love with rock'n'roll woaahh
He's in love with gettin' stoned woaahh
He's in love with Janie Jones
But he don't like his boring job, no...

An' he knows what he's got to do
So he knows he's gonna have fun with you
You lucky lady!
An' he knows when the evening comes
When his job is done he'll be over in his car for you

An' in the in-tray lots of work
But the boss at the firm always thinks he shirks
But he's just like everyone, he's got a Ford Cortina
That just won't run without fuel
Fill her up, Jacko!

An' the invoice it don't quite fit,
There's no payola in his alphabetical file
This time he's gonna really tell the boss
Gonna really let him know exactly how he feels
It's pretty bad!

Let them know - how you feel

Chain Gang Blues
Ma Rainey

The judge found me guilty, the clerk he wrote it down (x 2)
Just a poor gal in trouble, I know I'm county road bound

Many days of sorrow, many nights of woe (x 2)
And a ball and chain everywhere I go

Chains on my feet, padlock on my hand (x 2)
It's all on account of stealing a woman's man

It was early this morning that I had my trial (x 2)
Ninety days on the county road, and judge didn't even smile.

[C0ckney]

stereophonics - more life in a tramp's vest

I get camping eyes in the final hour
Last minute shoppers picking cauliflower
The fuss they make, you'd swear they were buying a car
They always moan, moan it's not so cheap
Cheaper still, cheaper still down the street
Lose my rag and tell them take your bag and shop down there
Closing down, they're closing down another road
One way, system steals the show
Mac the knife swigs a can and sings the day away

There's more life, more life, more life in a tramp's vest
There's more life, more life, more life in a tramp's vest

The flower man sits down in the street
Surrounded by, the stock he bought last week
Bring back the ladies wearing lipstick on their teeth
Make up, we make up a crappy joke
Sit back, relax and have a smoke
Mac the knife swigs a can and sings the day away

There's more life, more life, more life in a tramp's vest
There's more life, more life, more life in a tramp's vest
There's more life, more life, more life in a tramp's vest
There's more life, more life, more life in a tramp's vest

I get camping eyes in the final hour
Last minute shoppers picking cauliflower
Mac the knife swigs a can and sings the day away

There's more life, more life, more life in a tramp's vest
There's more life, more life, more life in a tramp's vest
There's more life, more life, more life in a tramp's vest
There's more life, more life, more life in a tramp's vest

Rhythm Of The Rain
The Cascades

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain,
Telling me just what a fool I've been.
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain,
And let me be alone again.

Now the only girl I've ever loved has gone away.
Looking for a brand new start!
But little does she know that when she left that day.
Along with her she took my heart.

Rain, please tell me, now does that seem fair
For her to steal my heart away when she don't care
I can't love another, when my heart's somewhere far away.

Rain, won't you tell her that I love her so
Please ask the sun to set her heart aglow
Rain in her heart and let the love we know start to grow.

[Hueij]

Nice one Sloww... Time for another depressing song:

Sinatra, One for my baby (Mercer/Arlen)

It’s quarter to three,
There’s no one in the place ’cept you and me
So set ’em’ up joe
I got a little story I think you oughtta know

We’re drinking my friend
To the end of a brief episode
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road

I know the routine
Put another nickel in that there machine
I’m feeling so bad
Won’t you make the music easy and sad

I could tell you a lot
But you gotta to be true to your code
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road

You’d never know it
But buddy I’m a kind of poet
And I’ve got a lot of things I wanna say
And if I’m gloomy, please listen to me
Till it’s all, all talked away

Well, that’s how it goes
And joe I know you’re gettin’ anxious to close
So thanks for the cheer
I hope you didn’t mind
My bending your ear

But this torch that I found
It’s gotta be drowned
Or it soon might explode
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
