You Can Tell Everybody, This Is Your Song - Lyrics

[OzzyKP]

Dyers Eve Metallica

Dear Mother
Dear Father
What is this hell you have put me through
Believer
Deceiver
Day in day out live my life through you
Pushed onto me what’s wrong or right
Hidden from this thing that they call life

Dear Mother
Dear Father
Every thought I'd think you'd disapprove
Curator
Dictator
Always censoring my every move
Children are seen but are not heard
Tear out everything inspired

Innocence
Torn from me without your shelter
Barred reality
I’m living blindly

Dear Mother
Dear Father
Time has frozen still what’s left to be
Hear nothing
Say nothing
Cannot face the fact I think for me
No guarantee, it’s life as is
But damn you for not giving me my chance

Dear Mother
Dear Father
You’ve clipped my wings before I learned to fly
Unspoiled
Unspoken
I’ve outgrown that ****ing lullaby
Same thing I’ve always heard from you
Do as I say not as I do

I’m in hell without you
Cannot cope without you two
Shocked at the world that I see
Innocent victim please rescue me

Dear Mother
Dear Father
Hidden in your world you’ve made for me
I’m seething
I’m bleeding
Ripping wounds in me that never heal
Undying spite I feel for you
Living out this hell you always knew

This one defined me 2 years ago.

The Tears of a Clown by: Smokey Robinson & The Miracles.

Now if there's a smile on my face,
it's only there tryin' to fool the public,
but when it comes down to foolin' you;
Now honey, that's quite a different subject.

But don't let my glad expression
give you the wrong impression.
Really I'm sad.
Oh, sadder than sad.
You're gone and I'm hurtin' so bad.
Like a clown I pretend to be glad.

(Chorus)
Now there's some sad things known to man,
but ain't too much sadder than
the tears of a clown
when there's no one around.

Oh yea, baby....

Now if I appear to be carefree,
it's only to camouflage my sadness.
In order to shield my pride I try
to cover this hurt with a show of gladness.

But don't let my show convince you
that I've been happy since you
decided to go.
Oh, I need you so.
I'm hurt and I want you to know
But for others I put on a show.

(Chorus)
There's some sad things known to man,
but ain't too much sadder than
the tears of a clown
when there's no one around.

Just like Pagliacci did,
I try to keep my suface hid.
Smiling in the public eye
But in my lonely room I cry
the tears of a clown
when there's no one around.

Oh yea baby,

Now if there's a smile on my face
Don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression.
Don't let this smile I wear
Make you think that I don't care
Really I'm sad
Hurtin' so bad......

(W. Robinson/H. Cosby/S. Wonder)

The Sound of Sinners
The Clash

As the floods of God
Wash away sin city
They say it was written
In the page of the Lord
But I was looking
For that great jazz note
That destroyed
The walls of Jericho

The winds of fear
Whip away the sickness
The messages on the tablet
Was valium
As the planets form
That golden cross Lord
I'll see you on
The holy cross roads

After all this time
To believe in Jesus
After all those drugs
I thought I was Him
After all my lying
And a-crying
And my suffering
I ain't good enough
I ain't clean enough
To be Him

The tribal wars
Burning up the homeland
The fuel of evil
Is raining from the sky
The sea of lava
Flowing down the mountain
The time will sleep
Us sinners by

Holy rollers roll
Give generously now
Pass the hubcap please
Thank you Lord

Take a Walk on the Wild Side
Lou Reed

Holly came from Miami F.L.A.
hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.

Plucked her eyebrows on the way
shaved her leg and then he was a she
She says, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side

Candy came from out on the island
in the backroom she was everybody's darling

But she never lost her head
even when she was given head
She says, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
and the coloured girls go

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(Doo)

Little Joe never once gave it away
everybody had to pay and pay

A hustle here and a hustle there
New York city is the place where they said
Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
I Said hey Joe, take a walk on the wild side

Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets
lookin' for soul food and a place to eat

Went to the Apollo
you should have seen him go go go
They said, hey Sugar, take a walk on the wild side
I said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
all right, huh

Jackie is just speeding away
thought she was James Dean for a day

Then I guess she had to crash
valium would have helped that dash
She said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
I said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side
and the coloured girls say

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)

Children of Samarina

Demotic

You mwre children, sons of thieves (mountain fighters)
Children of Samarina, mwre poor children
Children of Samarina even if you’re stained

As you go mwre up to the mountains
As you go mwre up to the mountains
High in Samarina

Shot mwre do not throw
Shot mwre do not throw
Songs do not tell..

Lest my mother mwre hears them
Lest my mother mwre hears them
And my disfortunate sister

And lest they go out on the street mwre to see you
And lest they go out on the street mwre to see you
And come to ask you

Don’t say mwre that I was wounded
Don’t say mwre that I was wounded
Heavily to die…

Say mwre that I got married
Say mwre that I got married
That I got a good woman…

The stone I have mwre for stepmother
The stone I have mwre for stepmother
The black earth for woman…

And those mwre the mudrocks
For sisters and brothers

Cry



If I had just one tear running down your cheek
Maybe I could cope maybe I'd get some sleep
If I had just one moment at your expense
Maybe all my misery would be well spent

Yeah.... Could you cry a little
Lie just a little
Pretend that you're feeling a little more pain
I gave now I 'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me

If your love could be caged, honey I would hold the key
And conceal it underneath the pile of lies you handed me
And you'd hunt those lies
They'd be all you'd ever find
And that'd be all you'd have to know
For me to be fine

Yeah.... And you'd cry a little
Die just a little
and baby I would feel just a little less pain
I gave now I'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me

Give it up baby
I hear your goodbye
Nothins goin save me
I can see it it your eyes
Some kind of heartache
Darlin give it a try
I dont want pity
I just want what is mine

Yeah... Could you cry a little
Lie just a little
Pretend that your're feeling a little more pain
I gave now I'm wanting
Something in retrun
So cry just a little for me

Yeah... Cry just a little for me

Two lads from Aivali

Two lads from Aivali
Entered Balis’ place
Entered Balis’ place
Entered Balis’ place in company (together)

And they both the two had zevda! (heavy emotional pain in the heart!)
And they both the two had zevda

And they drunk two seas drinks
And they drunk two seas drinks
For a woman from Aivali beautiful
For a woman from Aivali beautiful

They were drinking and there were smoking and they were cursing love
They were drinking and there were smoking and they were cursing love

Two lads from Aivali
Entered Balis’ place
And they didn’t leave a glass on the shelf (they broke everything)
For the damage to the magazi (place restaurant tavern etc)
For the damage to the magazi

They gave to old Balis
They gave to old Balis
A load of silver and gold
A load of silver and gold
They were drinking and they were smoking and they were cursing love

Ore the youngest one
Who has feet of hare and partridge
And partridge wings
And who knows the paths bet
Better than everyone else

Farewel Dear world

Farewell dear world
Farewell dear world
Farewell sweet life
Farewel sweet life

Farewell little springs, lowlands, mountains and cliffsides
Farewell little springs, lowlands, mountains and cliffsides

On dry land the fish does not live

And neither does a blossom on the sandy beach

Farewell little springs, lowlands, mountains and cliffsides
Farewell little springs, lowlands, mountains and cliffsides

On dry land the fish doesnot live

And the Souliotes women do not live

My little sea

island demotic

Sea, sea the seamen, my little sea
Sea, sea the seamen, my little sea
Do not seahit them

I drown for you I stay up all night

Rose water, rose water become, oh aman aman
Rose water, rose water become, oh aman aman

Their seapath to sprinkle
My little sea and bring back my little bird

To forget you, I can’t
Sea and salted water
Sea, sea where did you drown him and oh aman aman
Sea, sea where did you drown him and oh aman aman
The man of the lass

My little sea and bring back my little bird
And the lass, and the lass is young, my little sea
And the lass, and the lass is young, my little sea
And the black clothes do not suit her
My little sea and bring back my little bird


To forget you, I can’t
Sea and salted water
Sea, sea where did you drown him and oh aman aman
Sea, sea where did you drown him and oh aman aman
The man of the lass

Black eyes black eyebrows

Rebetiko

Vamvakaris

Black eyes, black eyebrows, black curly hair
White face like a lily and a beauty spot on the cheek
White face like a lily and a beauty spot on the cheek
Black eyes, black eyebrows, black curly hair
My blackeyes for you, I’ve been driven crazy
I will die, I can’t stand it I have become a phthisical
I have pains hidden inside the leaves of the heart
With your magical eyes when, my light, you look at me

[Bereta_Eder]

Erotokritos

demotic (crete)

Have you heard my Aretoussa the sad news
Your lord has banished me to the paths of exile
And he exploded and he was slaughtered on his own pretext
When he heard of our marriage you told me to tell him
And such was his rage, so heavy it seemed to him
And my lord from his needles (pain) I suspect he’ll die
4 days alone he gave me to wait
And from there on to go in exile, to go far away
And how to tell you farewell how to part away
And how to live without you in this exile?
My end drows near and learn this my lady
That in foreign lands they buried me, my bones are there
I possess ( the knowledge) that your lord quickly he’ll marry you
A prince son, a lordchild, the likes of your (rank) he searches for
And neither can you resist to the wants of your parents
They defeat your knowledge and your appetite changes
One joy (favor) I want my lady and this I want alone
And after that, full of joy can my life end
The hour when you’ll become engaged and heavily you sigh
And when you as a bride adorn yourself and married you change
To tear up and to say “dear erotokritos,
What I’ve vowed you I forgot, you wanted it more, it is no longer”
And when in the love of another groom you give your worth
And he becomes houselord of your beauty
When he heartfully kiss you and carresses you
Remember one who for you he set forth to die
Remember how you wounded me and I have pain of death

[Bereta_Eder]

Macedonia world known

demotic (estimated: second balkan war 1912-1913)

Macedonia world known
Land of Alexander
You who’ve driven the barbarians away
And now you’re free
You are and you will always be Hellenic
The pride of Hellenes
We shall all support you
Proudly once more
The Macedonians cannot
Live enslaved
And even if they lose everything
Their pride remains
Your diamond crown
Let’s see you placing it on your head
So your glory shines
Macedonia

[Bereta_Eder]

40 Euzones

demotic (frontier)

Forty euzones (frontier soldiers) they’ve decided it
Forty euzones (frontier soldiers) they’ve decided it
To go to war, my Virgin Mary, to fight
To go to war, my Virgin Mary, to fight
On the path as they went on the black sea
On the path as they went on the black sea
Black tempest catches, my Virgin Mary, the sails tear apart
Black tempest catches, my Virgin Mary, the sails tear apart
Help my Virgin Mary for them to be saved
Help my Virgin Mary for them to be saved
And as many cressets as you have my Virgin Mary to make them silver
And as many cressets as you have my Virgin Mary to make them silver

Triple Shot Thursday; Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young

Woodstock

Well I came upon a child of God
He was walking along the road
And I asked him 'Tell me where are you going?'
This he told me

Said 'I'm going down to Yasgur's farm
Gonna join in a rock and roll band
Got to get back to the land to set my soul free

We are stardust, we are golden
We are billion year old carbon
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden

Well then can I walk beside you
I have come to lose the smog
And I feel as I'm a cog in something turning
And maybe it's the time of year
Yes and maybe it's the time of man
And I don't know who I am
But life is for learning

We are stardust, we are golden
We are billion year old carbon
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden

We are stardust, we are golden
We are billion year old carbon
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden

By the time we got to Woodstock
We were half a million strong
And everywhere was a song and celebration
And I dreamed I saw the bombers death planes
Riding shotgun in the sky
Turning into butterflies
Above our nation.

We are stardust, we are golden
We are caught in the devil's bargain
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden

Teach Your Children

You who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a good bye.

Teach your children well,
Their father's hell did slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picked, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.

And you, of tender years,
Can't know the fears that your elders grew by,
And so please help them with your youth,
They seek the truth before they can die.

Counter Melody To Above Verse:
Can you hear and do you care and
Cant you see we must be free to
Teach your children what you believe in.
Make a world that we can live in.

Teach your parents well,
Their children's hell will slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picked, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.

Old Man

Old man, look at my life.
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man, look at my life.
I'm a lot like you were.

Old man, look at my life.
Twenty-four and there's so much more.
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two.

Love lost; such a cost.
Give me things that don't get lost
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rollin' home to you.

Old man, take a look at my life.
I'm a lot like you.
I need someone to love me
The whole day through.
Ah, one look in my eyes
And you can tell that's true.

Lullbies; look in your eyes.
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you.

I've been first and last.
Look at how the time goes past,
But I'm all alone at last
Rollin' home to you.

Old man, take a look at my life.
I'm a lot like you.
I need someone to love me
The whole day through.
Ah, one look in my eyes
And you can tell that's true.

Old man, look at my life.
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man, look at my life.
I'm a lot like you were.
