Hey sucker
(What the hell's got into you?)
Hey sucker
(Now there's nothing you can do)
Well I hadn't seen your face around town awhile,
So I greeted you, with a knowing smile,
When I saw that girl upon your arm,
I knew she won your heart with a fatal charm.
I said "Soul Boy, let's hit the town!"
I said "Soul Boy, what's with the frown?"
But in return, all you could say was
"Hi George, meet my fiancee"
Young Guns,
Having some fun
Crazy ladies keep 'em on the run.
Wise guys realize there's danger in emotional ties.
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be.
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matrimony!
Hey sucker,
(What the hell's got into you?)
Hey sucker!
(Now there's nothing you can do.)
A married man? you're out of your head
Sleepless nights, on an H.P. bed
A daddy by the time you're twenty-one
If your happy with a nappy then you're in for fun.
But you're here-
And you're there
Well there's guys like you just everywhere
Looking back on the good old days?
Well this young gun says CAUTION PAYS!
Chorus:
Young Guns,
Having some fun
Crazy ladies keep 'em on the run.
Wise guys realize there's danger in emotional ties.
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be.
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matrimony!
I remember when he such fun and everthing was fine,
I remember when we use to have a good time,
Partners in crime.
Tell me that's all in the past and I will gladly walk away,
Tell me that you're happy now,
Turning my back-
Nothing to say!
"Hey tell this jerk to take a hike,
There's somethin' 'bout that boy I don't like"
"Well sugar he don't mean the things he said"
"Just get him outta my way, 'cause I'm seeing red
We got plans to make, we got things to buy
And you're wasting time on some creepy guy"
"Hey shut up chick, that's a friend of mine,
Just watch your mouth babe, you're out of line"
OoooooH!
GET BACK
HANDS OFF
GO FOR IT!
Chorus
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
I've never been one
For playing games
You can move your mouth forever
But the words sound just the same
Something like
Bang bang you're dead
Couldn't we just make love instead
Say yes because it's what we do best
And I've had such a hard day
Take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you I may as well just ...
How much - do I have to say
What more - do you have to see
What will it take to make you love me
Well you're not the first
You're not the last
You're not even the one who loves me the best
But all I think about is you
So take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you I may as well just ...
So take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you I may as well just ...
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Please don't wander from my door
I've never been one
For playing games
You can move your mouth forever
But the words sound just the same
Bang bang you're dead
Couldn't we just make love instead
Say yes because it's what we do best
And I've had such a hard day
So don't bring me down
Won't you give me a break
Somebody give me a break now!
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down ...

a little while you want a boy
in a place you will be all mine
can't you see
oh, I'm losing you baby
chorus
but it's never gonna be that easy
you want a lover, I am just a friend
(George Michael/Jon Douglas)
So every day I see you in some other face
They crack a smile, talk a while
Try to take your place
My memory serves me far too well
I just sit here on this mountain thinking to myself
You’re a fool boy
Why don’t you go down
Find somebody
Find somebody else
My memory serves me far too well
It’s not as though we just broke up
It’s not as though it was yesterday
But something I just can’t explain
Something in me needs this pain
I know I’ll never see your face again
C’mon now
I’ve got to be strong now
Now everybody’s talking about this new decade
Like you say the magic numbers
Then just say goodbye to
The stupid mistakes you made
Oh my memory serves me far too well
Don’t you know that
The years will come and go
Some of us will change our lives
Some of us still have nothing to show
Nothing baby
But memories
And if these wounds
They are self inflicted
I don’t really know
How my poor heart could have protected me
But if I have to carry this pain
If you will not share the blame
I deserve to see your face again
C’mon now
You don’t have to be so strong now
Come back
Come back
Come back to me darling
I will make it worth your while
Come on back to your baby
tonight
do we have to fight again
tonight?
I just want to go to sleep
turn out the light
but you want to carry grudges
oh, nine times out of ten
oh, I see the storm approaching
long before the rain starts falling
tonight
does it have to be the old thing
tonight?
oh, it's late, too late
to chase the rainbow that you're after
I'd like to find a compromise
oh, and place it in your hands
my eyes are blind, my ears can't hear
oh, and I cannot find the time
tonight
just let the curtains close in silence
tonight
why not approach with less defiance
the man who'd love to see you smile
who'd love to see you smile
tonight
tonight
just let the curtains close in silence
tonight
why not approach with less defiance
the man who'd love to see your smile
the man who'd love to see your smile
the man who'd love to see your smile
tonight
No more lying friends
Wanting tragic ends
Though they do pretend
They won't go when I go
All those bleeding hearts
With sorrows to impart
Were right here from the start
And they won't go when I go
And I'll go where I've longed
To go so long
Away from tears
Gone from painful cries
Away from saddened eyes
Along with him I'll bide
Because they won't go when I go
Big men feeling small
Weak ones standing tall
I will watch them fall
They won't go when I go
And I'll go where I've longed
To go so long
Away from tears
Unclean minds mislead the pure
The innocent will leave for sure
For them there is a resting place
People sinning just for fun
They will never see the sun
For they can never show their faces
There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner
Who will take more than he will give
He ain't hardly gonna give
The greed of man will be
Far away from me
And my soul will be free
They won't go when I go
Since my soul conceived
All that I believe
The kingdom I will see
'Cause they won't go when I go
When I go
Where I'll go
No one can keep me
From my destiny
Spin the wheel
Five o'clock in the morning
You ain't home
I can't help thinking that's strange
Baby i just want you to know
I won't go through it again
Yes, those clouds are closing in
And i will not accept this as a part of my life
I will not live in fear
Of what may be
And the lessons i have learned...
I would rather be alone than watch you
Spinning that wheel for me
You've got a thing about danger
Ain't you getting what you want from me
You've got a thing about strangers
Baby that's what we used to be
You've got a thing about danger baby
I guess the hungry just can't see
One of these days
You're gonna bring some home to me
Six o'clock in the morning you ain't phoned
I can't help thinking that's strange
It seems that everybody take some home to me
Six o'clock in the morning you ain't phoned
I can't help thinking that's strange
It seems that everybody takes
Their chances
These days
Oh yeah, we're standing in the rain
And i will not accept this as a part of my life etc....
How can you love me
When you are playing with my life
You say give me time and i'll do better i swear
Give me time and i'll lead you back to despair
(George Michael)
[Instrumental]
Papa Was A Rollin' Stone
It was the third of September
That day I'll always remember, yes I will
'Cause that was the day that my daddy died
Never had a chance to see him, no
Never heard nothin' but bad things about him
Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth
Mama just hung her head and said
Chorus
Papa was a rollin' stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone (repeat)
Hey, Mama, is it true what they say
That Papa never worked a day in his life
Some bad talk going around sayin'
Papa had there outside children
And another wife
That ain't right
Heard some talk about Papa and his storefront
Preachin'
Talkin' about saving souls and all the time
Leaching
And dealing in dirt
Stealin' in the name of the Lord
But Mama she just said
Chorus
Say, I heard my papa was a jack of all trades
Is that what sent Papa to an early grave?
Folks say Papa would beg, borrow or steal just
To pay his bills.
Hey, Mama, folks say Papa was never much on thinkin'
Spent most of his time chansin' women and drinkin'
But Mother, I'm depending on you to tell me the
Truth
But my mama she just said
Chorus(2x)
I watch you breathe, I cannot sleep,
I touch your hair, I kiss your skin,
And hope the morning sun won’t wake you too soon.
For when you wake, and look at me,
You never know, you just might see,
Another boy who crept in your room...
Take your time...(that’s what you told me),
Take your time...
But I fell head first, and I just don’t know what to do.
Chorus:
Nothing looks the same in the light,
Only a fool like me would take to heart,
The things you said you meant last night.
Nothing looks the same in the light,
I’ll keep my feet firm on the ground.
Nothing looks the same in the light,
There’s danger in a stranger,
With a warm hand and a kiss so right.
Nothing looks the same in the light,
It’s been a pleasure, - see you around...
I watch the sun, upon the sheets.
I hear a car, out on the street,
And gently pull you close, it’s over too soon.
What can I do, but wait and see,
Hold on to you, please stay with me,
Because you’re the first, and I want to stay here with you.
Chorus
Good morn or evening friends
Here's your friendly announcer
I have serious news to pass on to every-body
What I'm about to say
Could mean the world's disaster
Could change your joy and laughter to tears and pain
It's that
Love's in need of love today
Don't delay
Send yours in right away
Hate's goin' round
Breaking many hearts
Stop it please
Before it's gone too far
The force of evil plans
To make you its possession
And it will if we let it
Destroy ev-er-y-body
We all must take
Precautionary measures
If love and please you treasure
Then you'll hear me when I say
Oh that
Love's in need of love today, love's in need of love today
Don't delay, don't delay
Send yours in right away, right away
Hate's goin' round, hate's goin' round
Breaking many hearts, breaking hearts
Stop it please, stop it please
Before it's gone too far, gone too far
People you know that
Love's in need of love today, love's in need of love today
Don't delay, don't de-lay
Send yours in right away, right away
You know that hate's, hate's
Hate's goin' round, goin' round
Breaking many hearts, break-ing hearts
Stop, stop it please
Before it's gone too far, gone too far
It's up to you cause
Love's in need of love today, love's in need of love today
Don't delay, don't delay
Send yours in right away, right away
You know that hate's, hate's
Hate's goin' round, goin' round
Breaking - hate's tried to break my heart many times, breaking hearts
Don't, you've got to stop it please, stop it please
Before, before, before gone too far
Hate's, hate's, hate's goin' round
Bring it down a little, love is very peaceful
So bring it down a little
Well, please stop it
Uh L-O-V-E love Oh,
Love's in need of love today
Don't delay
Right away
Just give the world LOVE.
Chorus:
I’m just a love machine
And I won’t work for nobody but you,
I’m just a love machine,
A huggin’, kissin’ friend.
I think it’s high time you knew,
Whenever I think of you,
My mind blows a fuse.
When I look in you eyes,
My meter starts to rise, and I become confused.
My voltage regulator cools,
When I’m sitting next to you,
Electricity starts to flow,
And my indicator starts to glow - wooo
Chorus
Na, na na na na, na na na na, woo-woo-wooo
Na, na na na na, na na na na, na naaah
Chorus
I’m gentle as a lamb,
I’m not that hard to program,
There’s no way that you can lose,
My chassis fits like a glove,
I’ve got a button for love,
That you have got-to-use.
If you look into my file,
I am sure you can find out how,
To turn me on just set my dial,
And let me love you for a little while - ooh
Chorus
Na, na na na na, na na na na, woo-woo-wooo
Na, na na na na, na na na na, na naaah
Chorus
Foreign skies
That blinded me to empty charms
I crossed the ocean and fell into your arms
So sure, so wrong
You sang me a simple tune
I took it for a song
Say goodbye, don’t tell me why you have to go
Loving you was as good as gold (as good as gold)
I’d love to love you, really love you
But you see, there’s something you should now
I really didn’t think you’d go
Because today
I could have sworn I heard you say
I love you
I want you
I need to be with you
Today
I saw something in your face
Stay here
Beside me
I need your love to hide me
You lied
And now you’ve gone away
And left me crying like a baby
Close friend of mine as a child fell into a slumber
No sign of life since '75
Then one day he just, what do you know
I guess God just called his number
He called me up he called me up and said
'I've been awake about a week
I'm thinking about asking the doctor
If he could put me back to sleep'
Then he laughed and said
'Hey all the girls they look the same'
Don't they know just what their mothers
Paid in blood, and tears to change
But the words that made me cry
The thing he softly said
It stayed with me, it keeps messing with my head
He said, 'If Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come John & Elvis are dead?'
Youth, beautiful youth
We walked through the walls until we found the truth
And said 'Change it, it's ugly just change it'
Everyone we used to know
Must have given up, so long ago
You can see it, it's written on their faces
And the inside of their clothes
But the words that made me cry
'Cos I knew just what they meant
He turned to me and said
'Hey boy, if Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come John & Elvis are dead?'
'Tell me if Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come Marvin & Elvis are dead?'
I said 'If Jesus Christ is going to save us from ourselves
How come peace, love and Elvis are dead?'
If you were my woman
And I was your man
There would be no other woman
You'd be weak as a lamb
If you had the strength to walk out that door
My love would overrule my sense I would call you back for more
If you were my woman
If you were my woman
And I was your man, Yeah!
He tears you down darlin'
Says your nothing at all
But I'll be there for darlin'
When he lets fall
Your like a diamond
But he treats you like glass
Yet you beg him to love you
With me you don't ask
If you were my woman
If you were my woman
Here's what I'd do, Oh
I'd never, no, no, no stop lovin' you
Whoa! Yeah!
My darlin'
Life is so crazy
And love is so unkind
Because he came first, darlin'
Will he make up your mind
Your a part of me
And you don't even to know it
I'm what you need
But I'm too afraid to show it
If you were my woman
Here's what I'd do, Oh
I'd never, no, no, no
Whoa! Oh!
My darlin' If you were my woman
Sweet lovin' woman
I said
If you were my woman
If you were my woman
I said
If you were my woman
If you were my woman
Here's what I would do, Oh
I'd never, no, no, no stop lovin' you
Whoa! Yeah!
Never, never, no
Hmm...
Call me good
Call me bad
Call me anything you want to baby
But I know that you're sad
And I know I'll make you happy
With the one thing that you never had
Baby, I'm your man (don't you know that?)
Baby, I'm your man
You bet!
If you're gonna do it, do it right - right?
Do it with me
So good...

Everybody knows where the good people go
But where we're going baby
Ain't no such word as no!
Baby, I'm your man (don't you know who I am?)
Baby, I'm your man
You bet!
If you're gonna do it, do it right - right?
Do it with me
Come on baby, (ooh, take me home
Please don't leave me here, to do it on my own...)
First class information
I'll be your sexual inspiration
And with some stimulation
We can do it right...
So why waste time
With the other guys?
When you can have mine
I ain't askin' for no sacrifice
Baby your friends do not need to know!
I've got a real nice place to go
Listen,
I don't need you to care
I don't need you to understand
All I want is for you to be there
And when I'm turned on
If you want me-
I'm your man!
If you're gonna do it, do it right - right?
Do it with me

I'll be the one who understands
I'll be your first, I'll be your last
I'll be the only one you ask
I'll be your friend, I'll be your toy
I'll be the one who brings you joy
I'll be your hope, I'll be your pearl
I'll take you halfway 'round the world!
I'll make you rich - I'll make you poor
Just don't use the door
Do it with me...
Oh so much love
That you’ve never seen
Let’s make love
Put your trust in me
Don’t you listen to what they told you
Because I love you
Let me hold you
I’m not your brother
I’m not your father
Oh will you ever change your mind
I’m a gentle lover with a heart of gold
But baby you’ve been so unkind, oh
Come on
I want your sex
Come on, I want your sex
That’s right, all night
Oh, I want your sex
I want your ... sex
Sexy baby’s
Sexy body
Keeps me guessing
With a promise
I know we can come together
But the question is
Will we ever ever?
Sexy baby’s
(Sexy baby’s)
Sexy body
(Sexy body)
Keeps me guessing
(Keeps me guessing)
With a promise
I know we can come togheter
But the question is
Will we ever ever?
Together - you and me
Shattered dreams, Worthless years
Here am I encased inside a hollow shell
Life began, Then was done
Now I stare into a cold and empty well
The many sounds that greet our ears
The sights our eyes befall
Will open up our merging hearts
And feed our empty souls
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever
Without despair, we will share
And the joys of caring will not be erased
What has been, must never end
The joys of caring will not be replaced
When the seeds of love have planted firm
They won't be hard to find
And the songs of love I sing to you
Will echo in my mind
Hey!
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever. I said.
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever.
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever. Yeah!
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever.
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever.
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever.
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever. Yeah!
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever.
You know god has answered my prayers
Won't you listen to me now
God for sure will answer my prayers
Won't you listen to me now
God will answer your prayers
Just ask him and God is sure to answer all your prayers
Oh come on and lets fall in love
Your the one that I've been waiting for
Come on lets fall in love
Your the woman that I adore
Don't you wanna
Fall in love with me baby
Don't you wanna
Fall in love with me this time, this time, this time
Oh, no no no
Don't you wanna fall
Don't you wanna fall in love
Oh, no no no

This time
O.K. I want you to sing this after me
It will be forever
It will be forever
Don't you wanna fall in love
Come on, Come on don't you wanna fall in love
With me forever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever
It will be forever
Don't you wanna

Don't you wanna fall in love with me this time, this time, this time
Oh, no no no
Don't you wanna fall in
Don't you wanna fall in love
Oh, no no no. Oh!
Whoo!
If you want it you can have it
That's what you said
But I don't want the things that you leave behind
Take the pictures, take the windows and the walls
But baby won't you leave me my peace of mind
Oh such a waste of time
Oh such a waste
I still want you baby
Heaven help me heaven help me
Talk to strangers talk to strangers
Heaven help me
Over you
Help me over you
I can't seem to take these changes
Everything reminds my heart of you
Thought the first time was the last time
Of being apart
Now I find I'm having to search again
It'll happen
It's gotta happen
Come together
I just wish somebody would tell me when
Oh such a waste of time
Oh such a waste
I still want you baby
(Chorus)
Heaven help Heaven help
Heaven, heaven heaven help me
Heaven help heaven help
Heaven, heaven heaven help me
(Repeat Chorus Twice)
Heaven help Heaven help
Heaven, heaven heaven help me
Heaven help heaven help
Heaven, heaven heaven help me
Heaven help Heaven help
Heaven, heaven heaven help me
Heaven help heaven help
Heaven, heaven heaven help me
You're someone else's lady
So sad without you darlin'
The gods of love can't help me now
Heaven help heaven help
Heaven, heaven heaven help me
Another summer, another vacation is over
A september morning with the sun and smell of the clover
Down by the gates we sit and watch all our friends go by
And pretend we don’t hear the bell that rings through the
Summer sky
I was happy with the kisses she gave me
It’s just that happy was she made me
Happy that was until I saw you
Chorus:
Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you fail me now?
You hurt me, desert me in my darkest hour
Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you keep me here?
How could I help but admire her beauty
Standing on the line between desire and duty
Heartbeat, heartbeat, it will end in tears
I need a lover that loves such a dangerous place to be
Oh, if we were meant for each other then why don’t you answer me
Don’t keep me waiting, you know that I long to be by your side
I was happy with the kisses she gave me
Now there’s nothing on earth that can save me
Why should I care I can have you?
Chorus to fade
(D.Bowie, J.Lennon, C.Alomar)
Performed by David Bowie
Fame, makes a man take things over
Fame, lets him loose, hard to swallow
Fame, puts you there, where things are hollow
Fame
Fame, it's not your brain, it's just the flame
that burns the change to keep you insane
Fame
Fame, what you like is in the Limo
Fame, what you get is no tomorrow
Fame, what you need you have to borrow
Fame
Fame, Nien! It's mine! is just his line
to bind your time, it drives you to, ah, crime
Fame
Could it be the best, could it be?
Really be, really, babe?
Could it be, my babe, could it, babe?
Really be, really, babe?
Is it any wonder
I reject you first?
Fame, fame, fame, fame
Is it any wonder
you're too cool to fool
Fame
Fame, bully for you, chilly for me
Got to get a rain-check on pain
Fame

What's your name?
I would lock you up
But I could not bear to hear you
Screaming to be set free
I would chain you up
If I’d thought you’d swear
The only one that mattered was me, me, me
I would strap you up
But don’t worry baby
You know I wouldn’t hurt you ’less you wanted me to
It’s too late to stop
Won’t the heavens save me?
My daddy said the devil looks a lot like you
You take me to the edge of heaven
Tell me that my soul’s forgiven
Hide you baby’s eyes and we can...
You take me to the edge of heaven
One last time might be forever
When the passion dies -
It’s just a matter of time before my heart is
Looking for a home
I’m like a maniac, at the end of the day
I’m like a doggie barking at your door
So come take me back to the place you stay
And maybe we can do it once more
You say I’m dangerous
But don’t worry baby
I get excited at the things that you do
And there’s a place for us in a dirty movie
’cos no-one does it better than me and you
You take me to the edge of heaven
Tell me that my soul’s forgiven
Hide your baby’s eyes and we can...
You take me to the edge of heaven
One last time might be forever
Please don’t tell me lies
It’s just a matter of time before my heart is
Looking for a home
I ain’t got no more worries
I’m gonna spend some times with you
Loving you takes such courage
And don’t you think that I know it
You take me to the edge of heaven
You tell me that my soul’s forgiven
Hide your baby’s eyes and we can...
You take me to the edge of heaven
One last time might be forever
Don’t you tell me lies, because believe me baby
One day you’ll wake up on your own.
I ain’t got no more worries
I ain’t got no more time for you
Loving you takes such courage
Everyone’s got their eyes on you
I ain’t got no more worries
I ain’t got no more time for you
Loving you takes such courage
And don’t you think that I know it
When I ask those questions, baby
It's just to get them out of my head
Cause they turn around inside it
Then they spill off to our bed
Do I really want to know?
Do I really want to know your life?
Would I have to let you go?
Could I listen to my heart if my head stops to think twice?
When I've been a good boy
When I've been a bad boy
I have too much fun
But baby so did everyone
I've never been an angel
But things are gonna change, change, change
So do you really want to know?
Do you really want to know my life?
Would you have to let me go?
Could you listen to your heart if your head stopped to think twice?
If you knew every woman
And I knew every man
We never would have made it past holding hands
I guess the saying is no longer true
That what you don't know can hurt you
I guess there is just no question, baby
You know what you're doing in bed
If I want your touch
Should I know too much
Some things are better left unsaid
So do I really want to know?
Do I really want to know your life?
Would I have to let you go?
Could I listen to my heart if my head starts to think twice?
(Tell me baby, Cause one thing to guess is one thing to know,
and don't you think that maybe baby I've got secrets of my own?)
If I knew every woman
And you knew every man
We never would have made it past holding hands
I used to say it but it's no longer true
Cause what you don't know can really hurt you (Can kill you baby)
And even as we speak
The world is full of lovers
Night after night, week after week
Trusting to luck and a pocket full of rubbers
(Bob Geldof Midge Ure)

It's Christmastime
There's no need to be afraid
At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime
But say a prayer
Pray for the other ones
At Christmastime it's hard, but when you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears
And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging
chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
(Oooh) Where nothing ever grows
No rain nor rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?
(Here's to you) raise a glass for everyone
(Here's to them) underneath that burning sun
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmastime again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmastime again

Se você disser que eu desafino amor
Saiba que isso em mim provoca imensa dor
Só privilegiados tem ouvido igual ao seu
Eu possuo apenas o que Deus me deu
E se você insiste em classificar
Com o meu comportamento de anti-musical
Não lhes vou mentir até vou comentar
Que isso é bossa-nova
Que isso é muito natural
Que voce não sabe nem sequer pressente
É que os desafinados também tem um coração
Fotografei você na minha role-flix
Revelou-se a sua enorme ingratidão
Só não poderá falar assim do meu amor
Que é bem maior que você pode encontrar
Você passou a música e esqueceu o principal
Que no peito dos desafinados
No fundo do peito bate calado
No peito dos desafinados também bate um coração
Said that you love me
Thought that it was true
You said that you needed me
And baby I believe that too
I thought that you were shy
But you put me straight
With the wink of your eye
I should have known better
I know
But now my hand’s in my pocket
Every time I see you cry
People think that you’re so sweet
But they don’t know you
Quite like I do
I guess they think
I’m a lucky guy
But you’re not fooling
Everybody
You can have my credit card
Baby
But keep your red hot fingers
Off my heart
Lady
All I know is what I see
You’re getting what you want
Girl
It ain’t just me
No matter how you cry
I’m not giving any love away
Do you think I’m crazy
All I know is what I see
But what can I do
When you pretend that you’re in love with me
Baby
You tell me you love me
’cause I know that it’s not true
Just tell me
You need my money
Girl
You know I’ll give it to you
Between the ocean and sky
There are things
That you can’t buy
And if you look you’ll see
One of them is me
Take your hands out of my pockets
Dig until the day you die
People think that you’re so sweet
But they don’t know you
Quite like I do
I guess they think
I’m a lucky guy
But you’re not fooling
Everybody
You can have my credit card
Baby
But keep your red hot fingers
Off my heart
Lady
All I know is what I see
You’re getting what you want
Girl
It ain’t just me
No matter how you cry
I’m not giving any love away
Do you think I’m crazy
All I know is what I see
But what can I do
When you pretend that you’re in love with me
Baby
They don’t know you
Quite like I do
And you’re not fooling
Anybody
You can have my credit card
Baby
But keep your red hot fingers
Off my heart
Lady
All I know is what I see
You’re getting what you want
Girl
It ain’t just me
No matter how you cry
I’m not giving any love away
Do you think I’m crazy
All I know is what I see
But what can I do
When you pretend that you’re in love with me
Baby
well I'm still here
but I'm so scared
got myself in trouble, so much trouble
I know I've got to make it
but I just can't take New York
my middle name is fear
I have a vacant stare
and it's been so long since my body's been warm
I know I've got to make it
but I just can't take New York
I came here
all dreams and wide eyes in the big, big city
no family, no money
and I don't even know what's hit me
he hasn't seen a doctor
since he got here in the spring
went to the Medicentre
but they wouldn't let him
without a green card
life can be so hard
take pity on a man without a home of his own
how could he ever have known?
every street and every corner
watch them drowning
watch them do the Crazyman dance
man and women to the slaughter
we just stand and watch them
do the Crazyman dance
it's been one whole year
and it's just not fair
for all the pushing and shoving
I've still got nothing
I'm never gonna make it
and I'm stuck here in New York
so people don't come near
unless you've a dollar to spare
'cause you know what they say
about madmen on the subways of New York
believe it
yesterday's newspapers
I wrap them around my body
outside these skyscrapers
I wait for the night to hit me
and boy, does it hit me
every street and every corner
watch them drowning
watch them do the Crazyman dance
for a nickel or a quarter
for your pleasure
watch them do the Crazyman dance
I'm coming yo London
I'm coming to Paris
I'm coming yo make you good clean people embarressed
why don't you look at my face
why don't you look in my eyes
you'd rather look at your feet
you'd rather look at the skies
oh, you'd look anywhere
but a man whose pure existence
says 'I ain't got time'
and I don't care
you just don't care
care
(George Michael)
Let me take you to the place
Where membership’s a smiling face,
Brush shoulders with the stars.
Where strangers take you by the hand,
And welcome you to wonderland -
From beneath their panamas...
Chorus:
Club tropicana, drinks are free,
Fun and sunshine - there’s enough for everyone.
All that’s missing is the sea,
But don’t worry, you can suntan!
Castaways and lovers meet,
Then kiss in tropicana’s heat,
Watch the waves break on the bay.
Soft white sands, a blue lagoon,
Cocktail time, a summer’s tune,
A whole night’s holiday!
Chorus
Pack your bags,
And leave tonight.
Don’t take your time,
Gotta move your feet, don’t you miss the flight!
Cool, cool, cool, cool
Chorus
Cool, cool, cool, cool
Mama's gone and got herself a new man
It's a shame,
He's the same
Mama please please, stop pretending
This time, it won't end in tears
I find myself, with a new daddy
My mama needs love you see
Guess she don't wanna be lonely
And nobody's keeping score
I don't say hi to those guys no more
Said mama can't you feel me
Holding my breath as they knock, knock, knock on our door
You're just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels,
The same, the same....
Johnny's gone and got himself a new man
He gets laid, every day
Johnny please please, stop pretending
This time, may just end in tears
Take care of yourself
Because you won't find 'daddy'
When you're popping those pills
Oh Johnny, is the danger just part of the thrill?
And nobody's keeping score
Johnny those guys that you shake it for
I said 'Johnny can't you hear them
Saying mama knows best as they knock, knock,
knock on your door'
You're just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, the same, the same
Taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, wheels, wheels
Pretty girl, little girl, what were you thinking
Just 18 at the time
You were a mother and child, at the same time
You were a mother and child
So young and fucked up baby
Always higher than a child should see...
Forgive me
To the top of that building
Under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, wheels, wheels
Mama don't you let him stay
From bastard to loser, hurt you, used you in every way,
Mama, don't you let him stay, please
Don't let him stay
I said Jesus, Mary, and the Saints above,
Won't you show him love?
Every day it seems my smile's a little harder
And every day, I seem to laugh a little less
Living this way, it seems my sky's a little darker
You went away and left me lonely in success
(Can't you see I'm falling apart) (Repeat)
Can't you see what's happenin' to me
Take this hand and show my fingers where my heart is
Understand, you may just save me from despair
Watch this man, you'll see he can't stop what he has started
Take this hand, you'll see right now there's no-one there
(Can't you see I'm falling apart)
You laugh at me as I fall
(Can't you see I'm falling apart)
Just tell me, tell me, give me one good reason
Armed with love, I could save my heart
But on my own I just can't make it
I'm too weak to fight, so take it
Armed with love, I could save my heart
But instead I watch you die
Armed with love, I could save my heart
But on my own I just can't make it
I'm too weak to fight, so take it
Armed with love, I could save my heart
Tell me why an I so blue.
Every day it seems my smile’s a little harder
And every day, I seem to laugh a little less
Living this way, it seems my sky’s a little darker
You went away and left me lonely in success
(can’t you see I’m falling apart) (repeat)
Can’t you see what’s happenin’ to me
Take this hand and show my fingers where my heart is
Understand, you may just save me from despair
Watch this man, you’ll see he can’t stop what he has started
Take this hand, you’ll see right now there’s no-one there
(can’t you see I’m falling apart)
You laugh at me as I fall
(can’t you see I’m falling apart)
Just tell me, tell me, give me one good reason
Armed with love, I could save my heart
But on my own I just can’t make it
I’m too weak to fight, so take it
Armed with love, I could save my heart
But instead I watch you die
Armed with love, I could save my heart
But on my own I just can’t make it
I’m too weak to fight, so take it
Armed with love, I could save my heart
Tell me why an I so blue.
You ask too much of me
You try my patience
Your tongue - it’s like a razor
You choose your words like weapons
Here we go - battlestations
I never have the guts to let you look inside
I don’t think you’d appreciate the things that I hide
Chorus:
Monday was the worst day
And friday wasn’t my day
But wednesday was the best day
Because on wednesday night we made love
All I’m trying to give you is a good time honey
Why d’ya have to keep on playing games with my head
Used to be your baby when you had no money
Now we spend more time in battle
Than we ever do in bed
(than we ever do in bed)
You don’t know how much I hate that answer phone
Are you standing there?
But - you won’t pick up the ’phone
Why lie to my face?
(when you can buy a tape machine to give me bullshit in your place)
Today I did something I thought I’d never do
I opened up your diary and read about you
Chorus
Monday was the worst day
Wednesday we made love
And friday - ooh but -
Saturday, is today, is what I’m thinking of
Come in baby- come in close
(take off your designer clothes)
’cos you know what I’m thinking of
Do you remember me, do you remember us -
Do you remember love?
All I’m trying to give you is a good time honey
Why d’ya have to keep on playing games with my head
Used to be your baby when you had no money
Now we spend more time in battle
Than we ever do in bed
(than we ever do in bed)
La premiere fois tu m’as fait beaucoup rire
Tu etais si mignon, et tu jouais du piano
Maintenant, mon mellieur ami c’est l’argent
Au revoir, cheri
Au revoir, mon amour
Back to life, back to reality
Back to the here and now (oh yeah)
Show me how
Decide what you want from me
Tell me maybe I
Could be there for you
Oooh
However do you want me
However do you need me
However do you want me
However do you need me
Back to life
Back to the present time
Back from a fantasy, yeah
Tell me now
Take the initiative
I'll leave it in your hands
Until you're ready
Heeey
However do you want me
However do you need me
However do you want me
However do you need me
I live at the top of the block (top of the block)
There's no more room (no more room, no no no no)
For trouble or fuss
Need a change
A positive change
(Loook . . .) it's me writing on the wall
However do you want me
However do you need me
Back to life
Back to the day we had
Let's play this foolish game
Hear me out
Don't let me waste away
Make up your mind so
I know where I stand
However do you want me
However do you need me
(repeat to fade)
Here comes one for the ladies
For the ones who love me
To think I thought I could be some kind of family man
I told myself I was straight
But I shouldn't have worried
‘Cos my Maker had a better plan for me
And I'm dancing with the freaks now
I'm havin', I'm havin' so much fun
What you sow is what you reap now
I'll do my dance with everyone
I've been getting too much Sun
(Yes I'm dancin' with the freaks now)
We're havin', we're havin' too much fun for them
Look who's talking Guilty feet now…
Well let me tell you people
It's an easier affair
Not living my life with other people on my mind
No, got nothing to hide from anyone
Yes, I'm walking on new air
Just living my life
Better believe I'm gonna get what's mine
See I don't have the time
For the haters
And all the time that I wasted
How careless of me
Too young and stupid to see
I put my life in their hands
(Gonna look for Cupid, man)
Oh, and I know that they want me to hate them
There's no hurry
I'll just have to be the bigger man
Dancin' with the freaks now
I'm havin', I'm havin' so much fun
What you sow is what you reap now
I'll do my dance with everyone
I've been getting too much Sun
If I turn the other cheek now
Would that be, would that be too much fun for them?
Look who's talking
Guilty feet now…
Well let me tell you people
It's an easier affair
Not livin' my life with other people on my mind
No, got nothing to hide from anyone
‘Cos I'm walking on new air
Just living my life
Better believe I'm gonna get what's mine
See I don't have the time for the haters
Don't let them tell you who you are is not enough
Don't let them tell you that it's wrong
Or that you won't find love
Don't let them use my life to put your future down
Don't let them tell you that happiness can't be found
For my life
Take it to the streets
There are stories you can keep
They're just passing you by
Don't let them tell you who you are is not enough
Don't let them tell you that it's wrong
Or that you won't find love
Don't let them use my life to put your future down
Don't let them tell you that happiness can't be found
I was mixed up when you came to me
Too broke to fix
Said 'daddy get you gone, I'm missing my baby'
Still missing my baby...
I was stitched up by the hands of fate
Said how you gonna make it on your own
If luck is a lady?
Maybe luck is a lady
I was going down for the third time
My heart was broken, I was not open to your suggestions
I had so many questions
That you just kissed away
Tell me, I guess that cupid was in disguise
The day you walked in and changed my life
I think it's amazing,
The way that love can set you free
So now I walk in the midday sun
I never thought that my savior would come
I think it's amazing
I think it's amazing
I think you're amazing
You tried to save me from myself
Said 'Darling ,kiss as many as you want!
My love's still available
And I know you're insatiable'
We're like victims of the same disease
Look at your Big Bad Daddy, and your mom
And your mom ....was always acting crazy
I was going down for the third time
My heart was broken, I thought that loving you
was out of the question
Then I saw my reflection
Saying please don't let this go
Tell me, I guess that cupid was in disguise
The day you walked in and changed my life
I think it's amazing,
The way that love can set you free
So now I walk in the midday sun
I never thought that my saviour would come
I think it's amazing
I think you're amazing
Celebrate the love of the one you're with
Celebrate, this life with you baby
I think you should celebrate yeah
Don't put your love in chains baby
No no, walk in the midday sun
I thought I was dreaming
I think it's amazing
I think you're amazing
I said celebrate the love of the one you're with
As this life gets colder
And the devil inside
Captured effortlesly. That's the way it was.
It happens so naturely. I did not know it was love.
The next thing I felt was you. Holding me close
What was I gonna do. I let myself go.
And now we fly through the stars.
Want this night will last for ever.
I've been waiting for you. It's been so long.
I knew just what I would do when I heard your song.
I fill my heart with your kiss. It gave me freedom.
You knew I could not resist. I needed someone.
And now we're flying through the stars.
I hope this night lasts for ever.
Ain't nobody (NOBODY)
Loves me better (LOVES ME BETTER)
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way (NOBODY)
Ain't nobody (NOBODY)
Loves me better (THAN YOU)
I wait for nighttime to come to bring you to me.
Can't believe I'm the one. I was so lonely.
I feel like noone can feel. I must be dreamin'.
I want this dream to be real. I'm in this feeling.
I make my whish upon a star
And hope this night will last for ever.
Ain't nobody (NOBODY)
Loves me better (LOVES ME BETTER)
Makes me happy This way
Makes me feel this way (NOBODY)
Ain't nobody (NOBODY BABY)
Loves me better
Ain't nobody
Loves me better (THAN YOU)
I wish you put your arms around me.
Yeah you put your arms around me.
I can't resist this sweet surrender.
Oh, my night's so warm and tender.
We stare into each others eyes.
And what we seek is no surprise.
I've got a feeling most would treasure.
And our love's so deep we cannot measure.
Move it move it, baby
Can’t you see I’m ready to dance?
And I can’t stop this rhythm in my heart.
Move it move it baby,
Can’t you see I’m ready to dance?
Without this beat my life would fall apart.
Shuffle on your feet till the floor is hot,
Gonna make a lot of money,
Gonna break your heart.
Watch out boy, (watch out boy)
Shuffle on your feet till the floor is hot,
Gonna make a lot of money,
Gonna break your heart.
But I’m the only one with a key.
And that’s me.
Sometimes,
You wake up in the morning with the bass line,
A ray of sunshine,
Sometimes,
You know today you’re gonna have a good time,
And you’re ready to go.
Move it move it baby
Can’t you see I’m ready to dance?
And I can’t keep my rhythm in my heart.
Move it move it baby,
Can’t you see I’m ready to dance?
Without this beat my life would fall apart.
Shuffle to the beat,
Gonna take a cut,
There’s money in your feet,
Gimme what you got.
Watch out boy, (watch out boy)
Suffle to the beat,
Gonna take a cut,
There’s money in your feet,
Gonna stitch you up.
Any other boy that you see,
But not me.
Sometimes,
You wake up in the morning with the bass line,
A ray of sunshine,
Sometimes,
You know today you’re gonna have a good time,
And you’re ready to go.
Turn the music up,
Turn the music up, turn it up,
Because it’s all i’ve-
All that I’ve got.
Shuffle to the beat
Gonna take a cut,
There’s money in your feet,
Gimme what you got.
Watch out boy, (watch out boy)
Suffle to the beat,
Gonna take a cut,
There’s money in your feet,
Gonna stitch you up.
Sometimes,
You wake up in the morning with the bass line,
A ray of sunshine,
Sometimes,
You know today you’re gonna have a good time,
And you’re ready to go.
Take my life
Time has been twisting the knife
I don't recognise
People i care for
Take my dreams
Childish and weak at the seams
Please don't analyse
Please just be there for me
The things that i know
Nobody told me
The seeds that are sown
They still control me
There's a liar in my head
There's a thief upon my bed
And the strangest thing
Is i cannot get my eyes open
Take my hand
Lead me to some peaceful land
That i cannot find
Inside my head
Wake me with love
It's all i need
But in all this time
Still no one said...
If i had not asked
Would you have told me
If you call this love
Why don't you hold me
There's a liar in my head
There's a thief upon my bed
And the strangest thing
Is i cannot get my eyes open
Give me something i can hold
Give me something to believe in
I am frightened for my soul, please, please
Make love to me, send love through me
Heal me with your crime
The only one who ever knew me,
We've wasted so much time
Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord, what you're doing to me
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody, somebody
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
I work hard every day of my life
I work till I ache my bones
At the end I take home my hard earned pay
All on my own
I get down on my knees
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes, Lord!
Somebody, somebody
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
(He works hard)
Everyday
I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm goin' crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
I got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh, Lord
Somebody - somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
I got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
I'm ok, I'm alright
Ain't gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
Someday I'm gonna be free, Lord!
Find me somebody to love ...
Somebody, somebody ...
Can anybody find me somebody to love? ...
(feat. Mary J Blige)
As Around The Sun The Earth Know She's Revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early may
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assured that
I'll be loving you always
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older everyday
Just as all that's born is new
You know what i say is true
That i'll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns the stars out of the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day
As today i know i'm living but tomorrow
Could make me the past
But that i mustn't fear
I know deep in my mind
The love of me i've left behind
Cause i'll be loving you always.
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Did you know that true love asks for nothing?
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day
As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early may
For now i know deep in my mind
The love of me i've left behind
Cause i'll he loving you always.
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Turn Down The Light
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close
Don't patronise
Don't patronise
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something that it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And i feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
I'll close my eyes, then i won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Mornin' will come and i'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And i will give up this fight
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something that it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And i feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
(feat. Astrud Gilberto)
Se Voce Disser Que Eu Desafino Amor
Saiba que isto em mim provoca imensa dor
So privilegiados tem ouvido igual ao seu
Eu possuo a penas o que deus me deu
Se voce insiste em classificar
O meu comportamento de anti musical
Eu mesmo mentindo devo argu mentar
Que isso e ¸ bossa nova que isto e¸ muito natural
O que voce nao sabe nem siquer presente
E que os desafindos rambem tem coracao
Fotografei voce na minha rolleiflex
Revelouse a sua enor mein gratidao
So nao podera falar assim do meu amor
Ele ¸ e maior que voce pode encontrar 'viu'
Voce com a sua musica esqueceu o principal
¸ que no peito dos desafinados
No fundo do peito bate calado
¸ que no peito dos desafinados
Oh she knows
She takes his hand
And prays the child will understand
At the door they watch the men go by
In the clothes that daddy wore
Mothers pride
Baby boy
His father's eyes
He's a soldier waiting for war
Time will come
He'll hold a gun
His father's son
And as he grows
He hears the band
Takes the step from boy to man
And at the shore she waves her son goodbye
Like the man she did before
Mothers pride
Just a boy
His country's eyes
He's a soldier waving at the shore
And in her heart the time has come
To lose a son
And all the husbands, all the sons, all the lovers gone
They make no difference
No difference in the end
Still hear the woman say your daddy died a hero
In the name of god and man
Mothers pride
Crazy boy
His lifeless eyes
He's a soldier now forevermore
Why can't you do it
Why can't you set your monkey free
Always giving in to it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey
(With a monkey, with a monkey, aye, aye, aye, uh-huh)
Oh, I count to ten
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open my eyes
If you kiss me again
Like you did just now, like you did just then
I've had the rest, now it's time I had the best
So you tell me that you won't do anymore
Well I'd write your heart a letter
But I think you know me better
If I keep on askin' baby, maybe I'll get what I'm askin' for
Why can't you do it Why can't you set your monkey free
Always giving in to it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey
Oh I hate your friends
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open your eyes
Yes the monkey's back again
Do you want him now like you did back then
I tried my best, but your head is such a mess
So I guess that I don't want you anymore
Well you say you care about me
That you just can't do without me
But you keep on dancin' baby
'Til that monkey has you on the floor
Why can't you do it Why can't you set your monkey free
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey
Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you...
I loved you once but look at you now
You're in somebody else's bed
I loved you once so I don't know how
You're with a man like that, you'd be better off dead
He don't care, he don't treat you right
It's not fair, I still want you at night
Can't you see you made a mistake, girl?
But he treats you like dirt and I hate it
Na, na, na, na, na, na, lady, look at your hands
You got two fat children and a drunken man
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like it
Ma, ma, ma, ma baby, look at your hands
You should have been my woman when you had the chance
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life now
He hits you once, he hits you twice
He don't care about the blood on his hands
But that's okay 'cause it's his wife
"It's the only thing she understands", he says
Say, you're gonna leave him
Say, you're gonna try but you're only talking
Oh, I know you think I'm a young boy
But I'm good and I think we can make it
Na, na, na, na, na, na, lady, look at your hands
You got two fat children and a drunken man
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like it
Ma, ma, ma, ma baby, look at your hands
You should have been my woman when you had the chance
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life now
Don't like your guy now
Well, excuse me baby, but it's making me mad
Only one you want is the only one you'll never have
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like it
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like it
Na, na, na, na, na, na, lady, look at your hands
You've got two fat children and a drunken man
I. Lust
There's things that you guess and things that you know
There's boys that you can trust and girls that you don't
There's little things you hide and little things that you show
Sometimes you think you're gonna get it
But you don't and that's just the way it goes
I swear I won't tease you, won't tell you no lies
I don't need no bible, just look in my eyes
I've waited so long baby, now that we're friends
Every man's got his patience, and here's where my ends
I want your sex
I want you
I want your.....sex
It's playing on my mind, It's dancing on my soul
It's taken so much time, so why don't you just let me go
I'd really like to try oh, I'd really love to know
When you tell me you're gonna regret it
Then I tell you that I love you but you still say NO!
I swear I won't tease you, won't tell you no lies
I don't need no bible, just look in my eyes
I've waited so long baby, out in the cold
I can't take much more girl I'm losing control
I want your sex
I want your love
I want your.....sex
It's natural It's chemical (let's do it)
It's logical Habitual (can we do it)
It's sensual But most of all.....
Sex is something that we should do
Sex is something for me and you
Sex is natural - sex is good
Not everybody does it
But everybody should
Sex is natural - sex is fun
Sex is best when it's....one on one
one on one
I'm not your father
I'm not your brother
Talk to your sister
I am a lover
C-c-c-c-come on
What's your definition of dirty baby
What do you consider pornography
Don't you know I love it till it hurts me baby
Don't you think it's time you had sex with me
What's your definition of dirty baby
What do you call pornography
Don't you know I love it till it hurts me baby
Don't you think it's time you had sex with me
Sex with me
Sex with me
Have sex with me
C-c-c-c-come on
II. Brass in love
Oh so much love, that you've never seen
Let's make love, put your trust in me (hmm)
Don't you listen to what they told you
Because I love you, let me hold you
Oh, I'm not your brother
I'm not your father
Oh will you ever change your mind
I'm a gentle lover with a heart of gold
But baby you've been so unkind...oh
Come on
I want your sex
Come on, I want your sex
That's right, all night
Oh, I want your sex
I want your...sex
Sexy baby's (Sexy baby's) Sexy body (Sexy body)
Keeps me guessing (Keeps me guessing)
With a promise (Oh)
I know we can come together
But the question is Will we ever (ever)
Together - you and me
Dear Friends
So dear friends your love has gone
Only tears to dwell upon
I dare not say as the wind must blow
So a love is lost, a love is won
Go to sleep and dream again
Soon your hopes will rise aand then
From all this gloom life can start anew
And there'llbe no crying soon
Love Me, Love Me, Love Me, Love Me
Say you do
Let me fly away with you
For my love is like the wind
And wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
Give me more than one caress
Satisfy this hungriness
Let the wind blow through your heart
Oh wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
You touch me
I hear the sound of mandolins
You kiss me
With your kiss my life begins
You're spring to me
All things to me
Don't you know
You're life itself!
Like the leaf
Clings to the tree
Oh my darling cling to me
For we're like creatures of the wind
And wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
You touch me
I hear the sound of mandolins
You kiss me
With your kiss my life begins
You're spring to me
All things to me
Don't you know
You're life itself!
Like the leaf
Clings to the tree
Oh my darling cling to me
For we're like creatures of the wind
And wild is the wind
Wild is the wind, wild is the wind
She takes the back road and the lane
Past the school that has not changed
In all this time
She thinks of when the boy was young
All the battles she had won
Just to give him life
That man, she loved that man
For all his life
But now we meet to take him flowers
And only God knows why
For what's the use in pressing palms
When children fade in mother's arms
It's a cruel world we've so much to lose
And what we have to learn we rarely choose
So if it's God who took her son
He cannot be the one
Living in her mind
Take care my love, she said
Don't think that God is dead
Take care my love, she said
You have been loved
If I was weak
Forgive me
But I was terrified
You brushed my eyes with angels wings, full of love
The kind that makes devils cry
So these days my life has changed
And I'll be fine, and I'll be fine
But she just sits and counts the hours
Searching for her crime
So what's the use of pressing palms
If you won't keep such love from harm
It's a cruel world
You've so much to prove
And heaven helps the ones who wait for you
Well, I've no daughters, I've no sons
Guess I'm the only one
Living in my life
Take care my love, he said
Don't think that God is dead
Take care my love, he said
You put the boom-boom into my heart
You send my soul sky high
When your loving starts
A jitterbug into my brain
Till my feet do the same
But something’s bugging me
Something ain’t right
My best friend told me what you did last night
You left me sleeping in my bed
I was dreaming but I should have been with you instead
Chorus:
Wake me up before you go-go
Don’t leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don’t wanna miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
’cos I’m not planning on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
You put the grey skies out of my way
You make the sun shine brighter than doris day
Turned a bright spark into a flame
My beats per minute never been the same
’cos you’re my lady
I’m your fool
It makes me crazy when you act so cruel
Come on baby lets not fight
We’ll go dancing
Everything wiil be alright
Chorus:
Cuddle up baby, move in tight
We’ll go dancing tomorrow night
It’s cold out there but it’s warm in bed
They can dance
We’ll stay at home instead
Chorus to fade
Hey, You're Just Too Funky For Me
I gotta get inside of you
And i'll show you heaven if you let me
Hey you just too funky for me
I gotta get inside, (i gotta get inside)
I gotta get inside of you (so when will that be)
I watch your fingers working overtime (overtime)
I got to thinking that they should be mine. Oh!
I'd love to see you naked baby
I'd like to think that sometime maybe
Tonight, if that's all right, yeah!
Hey, you"re just too funky for me
I gotta get inside of you, (won't let you go)
Won't let you, no-no
Hey you just too funky for me
I gotta get inside, (i gotta get inside)
I gotta get inside of you (i'll let you love me)
I watch you drinkin' and i take my time
I watch you drinkin' all that cheap red wine, oh!
I've got to see you naked baby
I'd like to think that sometime maybe
Tonight my goal's in sight, yeah!
Baby, baby, baby why do you do this to me?
Won't let you go, (won't let you go)
You're such a, you're such a
Baby, baby, baby why do you do this to me?
I've got to know. (i've got to know)
(i'm gonna be the kind of lover that you never had)
Hey you're just too funky
(you're never gonna have another lover in your bed)
You're just too funky for me
(would you like me to seduce you, is that what your trying to tell me?)
(everybody wants a lover like that) baby
(everybody wants a lover like that) yeah! Yeah!
(everybody wants a lover like that) everybody, everybody
(everybody wants a lover like that)
(everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that
Everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that
Everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that
Everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that)
(would you like me to seduce you?)
You're such a, you're such a
(would you like me to seduce you?) Yeah! Yeah!
(would you like me to seduce you?) You're such a, you're such a
Yeah!yeah!
She's got a song in her head and she'll sing to me
She's got a laugh that reminds me of why she's in love with me
She'd never let show she was lonely in case it had frightened me
She was carpet and stone, independent, alone
But her love always shone around me
Every time...
Waltz away dreaming till your day begins again
Free from the seasons and this state I'm in
And oh, I can't hold it all under one love
It was so long ago when we kissed in the streets
Now you fly like an eagle above
While I waltz away anyway
I'll be waltzing my days away
Searching for this woman I love
She had a history of joy and pain in time
And she chose to leave
She had a thousand and one photographs
That you would not believe
She'll come to you in disguise
She's there in your children's eyes
Still our mother...She's still your wife (So let her...)
Waltz away dreaming till your day begins again
Free from the reasons for this state I'm in
And oh, (trust me, she ain't going anywhere)
I can't hold it all under one love
(Trust me, she told me, when you're ready she'll be there)
It was so long ago (no don't let go of her)
When we kissed in the streets
Now you fly like an eagle above
While I waltz away anyway
I'll be waltzing my days away
Searching for this woman I love
And the moment you see me
I will live in your life
We will walk through my garden
I will see through your eyes
I was in despair 'till she found me there
Every grown man cries with his mother's eyes
And when you're ready too
She'll come back to you
She's waiting
Father...
She's waiting...
You'll see me.......
There ain't no point in moving on
Until you've got somewhere to go
And the road that I have walked upon
Well, it filled my pockets
And emptied out my soul
All those insecurities
That have held me down for so long
I can't say I've found a cure for these
But at least I know them
So they're not so strong
You look for your dreams in heaven
But what the hell are you supposed to do
When they come true?
There's one year of my life in these songs
And some of them are about you
Now I know there's no way I can write those wrongs
Believe me
I would not lie, you've hurt my pride
And I guess there's a road without you
But you once said
There's a way back for every man
So here I am
Don't people change, here I am
Is it too late to try again?
This Is Not Real Love
with Mutya Buena
George:
Don't kiss me, darling
I want you to hear the things I say
I loved you in my way
But you know I'm gonna leave you
Mutya:
The clock was always ticking
And your heart,
Yes I know your heart is always on the run
George:
I hate what I've become
But I'm still gonna leave you
And I don't think you should stay for the night
Mutya:
Baby you know that my flesh is weak
You know I simply
Both:
I cannot sleep without you
My heart has simply nowhere to go
Mutya:
Nothing to hold
Those tears you're crying
George:
Time and time again you take me back in baby
Mutya:
You don't have to make it plain
Both:
This is not real love
Mutya:
Look at us dancing baby
Let's dance and show them all
(Dance and show them all)
How close we are
The lies have worked so far
So we go on deceiving
George:
But darling don't you know the time
Baby, look at yourself, holding back the tide
Like you've got something else up your sleeve
That's why I've got to leave
Both:
And I don't think you should stay here tonight
(Baby don't you know that my flesh is weak, you know)
I simply I cannot sleep without you
But someday I'll have nothing to show
(Nothing to show)
(Nothing to show)
I've nothing to hold
George:
Oh, baby, crying
All those simple things that won't come again
Oh do I have to make it plain
This is not real love
And I said this is not real love
Mutya:
Real love
Baby it don't glisten and shine the way it used to
George:
This is not real love (real love)
Baby think of all the promises I made on the day that I seduced you
Baby don't wait for me like some angel of tragedy
I have to set you free
Darling you should be long gone, oh long gone by now
You should be with someone, someone
Mutya:
Glisten and shine
You promised me
George:
You've gotta face it woman, you ain't ever gonna change me
Mutya:
Where will I go, what do I know
About life without you
You promised me you'd never leave me, no
This is not real love
No more lying friends
Wanting tragic ends
Though they do pretend
They won't go when I go
All those bleeding hearts
With sorrows to impart
Were right here from the start
And they won't go when I go
And I'll go where I've longed
To go so long
Away from tears
Gone from painful cries
Away from saddened eyes
Along with him I'll bide
Because they won't go when I go
Big men feeling small
Weak ones standing tall
I will watch them fall
They won't go when I go
And I'll go where I've longed
To go so long
Away from tears
Unclean minds mislead the pure
The innocent will leave for sure
For them there is a resting place
People sinning just for fun
They will never see the sun
For they can never show their faces
There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner
Who will take more than he will give
He ain't hardly gonna give
The greed of man will be
Far away from me
And my soul will be free
They won't go when I go
Since my soul conceived
All that I believe
The kingdom I will see
'Cause they won't go when I go
When I go
Where I'll go
No one can keep me
From my destiny
(return to top)
Star people
Counting your money till your soul turns green
Star people
Counting the cost of your desire to be seen
I do not count myself among you
I may be living in a dream
It's just there seem so many of you
Can't help but hope
There's a difference between....you and me
You're a star
(i'm talking to you)
You're a star
Maybe your mama gave you up boy
(it's the same old same old)
Maybe your daddy didn't love you enough girl
Star people
Never forget your secret's safe with me
Just look at all the wonderful people
Trying to forget they had to pay for what you see
It's a dream
With a nightmare stuck in the middle
But where would you be
Without all of that attention
You'd die
I'd die
We'd die wouldn't we
(well wouldn't we)
Big, big, star!
Should go far!
Talk about your mother
Talk about your father
Talk about the people
Who have made you what you are
Talk about your teacher,
The bully boy who beat you
Talk about the people who have paid
For that new sports car
Did you get off on a bad foot, baby
Do you have a little tale to tell
Is that why you're a star?
Is that what makes a star?
Nothing comes for nothing, baby
That fame and fortune's heaven sent
And who gives a fuck about your problems, darling
When you can pay the rent
It's like a conversation, where no-one stops to breathe
Is it my imagination, or did God already leave the table?
Such destruction, and pure white castles in the sand
No time for introduction
With all that money changing hands
And the satellite says, "Take a look at all we have"
But the old man says,
"You want my family, for your liberty...I can't do that."
Look into the eyes of any patient man
Whether they be amber, green or blue,
There's a piece of God staring back at you
But they see our children, and the old folk fend for themselves
They see our broken women
On imaginary shelves
But the satellite says, "Won't you people look at all we have?
Don't you want it?
Can't you see the things that you lack?"
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night
Roxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
I loved you since i knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have to tell you just how i feel
I won't share you with another boy
I know my mind is made up
So put away your make up
Told you once i won't tell you again
It's a bad way
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
Once I Had A Secret Love
That lived within the heart of me
All too soon my secret love
Became impatient to be free
So i told a friendly star
The way that dreamers often do
Just how wonderful you are
And why i'm so in love with you
Now i shout it from the highest hill
I even told you the golden dafodill
At least my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret anymore
Now i shout it from the highest hill
I even told you the golden dafodill
At least my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret
My secret love's no secret
(George Michael)
These are the days of the open hand
They will not be the last
Look around now
These are the days of the beggars and the choosers
This is the year of the hungry man
Whose place is in the past
Hand in hand with ignorance
And legitimate excuses
The rich declare themselves poor
And most of us are not sure
If we have too much
But we'll take our chances
Because god's stopped keeping score
I guess somewhere along the way
He must have let us alt out to play
Turned his back and all god's children
Crept out the back door
And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope
When there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
Well maybe we should all be praying for time
These are the days of the empty hand
Oh you hold on to what you can
And charity is a coat you wear twice a year
This is the year of the guilty man
Your television takes a stand
And you find that what was over there is over here
So you scream from behind your door
Say 'what's mine is mine and not yours'
I may have too much but i'll take my chances
Because god's stopped keeping score
And you cling to the things they sold you
Did you cover your eyes when they told you
That he can't come back
Beacuse he has no children to come back for
It's hard to love there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
So maybe we should all be praying for time
Outside
George Michael
Ladies & Gentlemen: The Best Of George Michael
(Let's go outside)
(Let's go outside)
Outside, Outside...
Back to nature
Just human nature
Hidden in the back
I think I'm done with the sofa
I think I'm done with the hall
I think I'm done with the kitchen...table maybe
(Let's go outside)
In the sunshine
I know you want to
But you can't say yes
(Let's go outside)
In the moonshine
Take me to the places that I love best
Oh my angel she says don't you worry
About the things that they're saying
Yeah
Got my friends in high places
And the game that you gave away
Was it worth playing?
(Let's go outside)
In the sunshine
I know you want to
But you can't say yes
(Let's go outside)
In the meantime
Take me to the places that I love best
And yes I've been bad
Doctor won't you do with me,
What you can
You see I think about it all of the time
24/7 (24...24/7)
You say you want it, you got it
I've never really said it...before
There's nothing here but flesh and bone
There's nothing more
Nothing more
There's nothing more
Back to nature
Just human nature
Hidden on the backdoor
I think I'm done with the sofa
I think I'm done with the hall
I think I'm done with the kitchen...table baby
(Let's go outside)
In the sunshine
I know you want to
But you can't say yes
(Let's go outside)
In the moonshine
Take me to the places that I love best
And yes I've been bad
Doctor won't you do with me
What you can
You see I think about it all of the time
I'd service the community
What I already have
Hey you
I've never really said it before
There's nothing here but flesh and bone
There's nothing more
Nothing more
There's nothing more
Let's go outside
Doesn't own a deep dream baby?
When the moon is hard
And the grass is joking?
C'mon
Just keep on funkin?
Keep on funkin?
Just keep on funkin?
I've Had Enough Of Danger
And people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace
Now i think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
But if you don't
I just let me go....
'Cos teacher
There are things that i don't want to learn
And the last one i had
Made me cry
So i don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye
When you were just a stranger
And i was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
Now i feel the hear
That look in your eyes
Telling me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote the song, i know it's wrong
Just let me go....
And teacher
There are things
That i don't want to learn
Oh the last one i had
Made me cry
So i don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye
So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong , you're not that strong
Let me go
And teacher
There are things
That i still have to learn
Hut the one thing i have is my pride
Oh so i don't want to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Who just isn't willing to try
I'm so cold inside
Maybe just one more try
My Baby Don't Care For Shows
My baby don't care for clothes
My baby just cares for me
My baby don't care for cars and races
My baby don't care for high tone places
Elizabeth taylor is not his style
And even ricky martin's smile
Is something he can't see
My baby don't care who knows it
My baby just cares for me
I wonder what's wrong with baby
My baby just cares for
He just says his prayers for
My baby just cares
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me
Happy Christmas
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying, "I love you", I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God, I thought you were someone to rely on me?
I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face of a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore me apart
Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
Oh so much love
That you've never seen
Let's make love
Put your trust in me
Don't you listen to what they told you
Because I love you
Let me hold you
Oh
I'm not your brother
I'm not your father
Oh will you ever change your mind
I'm a gentle lover with a heart of gold
But baby you've been so unkind...oh
Come on
I want your sex
Come on, I want your sex
That's right, all night
Oh, I want your sex
I want your...sex
Sexy baby's
(Sexy baby's)
Sexy body
(Sexy body)
Keeps me guessing
With a promise
I know we can come together
But the question is
Will we ever?
Together - you and me
(return to top)
So You Want To Be Free
To live your life the way you wanna be
Will you give if we cry
Will we live or will we die
Tainted hearts heal with time
Shoot bad love so we can
Stop the bleeding
Solitary brother, is there still a part of you that
Wants to live?
Solitary sister, is there still a part of you that
Wants to give?
Solitary brother, is there still a part of you that
Wants to live?
Solitary sister, is there still a part of you that
Wants to give?
If we try to live our lives
The way we wanna be
Solitary brother, is there still a part of you that
Wants to live?
Solitary sister, is there still a part of you that
Wants to give?
Solitary brother, is there still a part of you that
Wants to live?
Solitary sister, is there still a part of you that
Wants to give?
Racism in future kings, can only lead to no good
And besides, all our sons and daughters already
Know how that feels
Kindness in your eyes
I guess you heard me cry
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
I'm blessed, I know
Heaven sent, heaven stole
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
And what have I learned
From all this pain
I thought I never feel the same
About anyone
Or anything again
But now I know
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there is no hope in sight
Sadness in my eyes
No one guessed, well no one tried
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
Loveless and cold
With your last breathe you saved my soul
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
And what have I learned
From all these tears
I've waited for you all those years
Then just when it began
He took your love away
But I still say
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Comfort you when there is no hope in sight
So the words you could not say
I'll sing them for you
And the love we would have made
I'll make it for two
For every single memory
Has become a part of me
You will always be
My love
Well I've been loved
So I know just what love is
And the lover that I kissed is always by my side
Oh, the lover I still miss
There's things that you guess
And things that you know
There's boys that you can trust
And girls that you don't
There's little things you hide
And little things that you show
Sometimes you think you're gonna get it
But you don't and that's just the way it goes
I swear I won't tease you
Won't tell you no lies
I don't need no bible
Just look in my eyes
I've waited so long baby
Now that we're friends
Every man's got his patience
And here's where mine ends
I want your sex
I want you
I want your.....sex
It's playing on my mind
It's dancing on my soul
It's taken so much time
So why don't you just let me go
I'd really like to try
Oh, I'd really love to know
When you tell me you're gonna regret it
Then I tell you that I love you but you still say NO!
I swear I won't tease you
Won't tell you no lies
I don't need no bible
Just look in my eyes
I've waited so long baby
Out in the cold
I can't take much more girl
I'm losing control
I want your sex
I want your love
I want your.....sex
It's natural
It's chemical (let's do it)
It's logical
Habitual (can we do it?)
It's sensual
But most of all.....
Sex is something that we should do
Sex is something for me and you
Sex is natural - sex is good
Not everybody does it
But everybody should
Sex is natural - sex is fun
Sex is best when it's....one on one
One on one
I'm not your father

Freedom '90
George Michael
I won't let you down
I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
It's the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
So please don't give me up
Because I would really, really love to stick around
Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me
To win the race? A prettier face!
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock and roll TV
But today the way I play the game is not the same
No way
Think I'm gonna get me some happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else I've got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
What a kick just a buddy and me
We had every big shot good-time band on the run boy
We were living in a fantasy
We won the race
Got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face
For the boys on MTV
But today the way I play the game has got to change
Oh yeah
Now I'm gonna get myself happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I stopped the show
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Don't think that I'll be back again
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Well it looks like the road to heaven
But it feels like the road to hell
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
Posing for another picture
Everybody's got to sell
But when you shake your ass
They notice fast
And some mistakes were built to last
That's what you get
I say that's what you get
That's what you get for changing your mind
And after all this time
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes
Do not make the man
I'll hold on to my freedom
May not be what you want from me
Just the way it's got to be
Lose the face now
I've got to live
'Cause you're beautiful (Like no other)
'Cause you're beautiful (maybe tonight, they'll see you tonight)
Beautiful .... beautiful
And it's no good waiting by the window
It's no good waiting for the sun
Please believe me, the things you dream of
They don't fall in the laps of no-one
And it's no good . . . Waiting, waiting
And it's no good . . . Waiting
You've got to go to the city
Always the same
Always the same dreams yeah yeah
Always the same (yes you're movin' up)
Well you've got to think of something
'Cause your job pays you nothing
But you've got the things God gave you
So the music may yet be your saviour
Got to be a way, some way
Got to be some way to make your way to the light (All the girls say)
Got to be some way, today, today, maybe tonight, maybe tonight
And it's always the same . . .
Always the same dreams yeah yeah
Always the same (yes you're movin' up)
You're beautiful, you are, and you know it
You're wasted here, you're a star
In this small town of hand-me-downs who don't even know it
Sometimes it brings you down
Sometimes it eats you up
Sometimes you think that your head's going to blow
It doesn't get better . . .
Don't you know, you've got to go to the city
You've got to reach the other side of the glass
I think you'll make it in the city baby
I think you know that you are more than just
Some fucked up piece of ass
Got to be a way, some way
Got to be some way to make your way to the light (All the boys say)
Got to be some way, today, today, maybe tonight,
They'll see you tonight
And it's always the same
A lways the same
Always the same dreams yeah yeah
Always the same (yes you're movin' up)
Cause you're beautiful (like no other)
Cause you're beautiful (take me, make me)
Cause you're beautiful (maybe tonight, they'll see you tonight)
Beautiful .... beautiful
And it's no good waiting by the window
It's no good waiting for the sun
Please believe me, the things you dream of
They don't fall in the laps of no-one
And it's no good . . . Waiting, waiting
And it's no good . . . Waiting
You've got to go to the city
You've got to go to the city,
They're going to find you there
'Cause you're beautiful
'Cause you're beautiful
Sometimes it brings you down
Sometimes it eats you up
Sometimes you think that your head's going to blow and
It doesn't get better . . .
Don't you know, you've got to go to the city
You've got to reach the other side of the glass
I think you'll make it in the city baby
I think you know that you are more than just
Some fucked up piece of ass
More than just ...
Sid you've got to think of something
'Cause your job pays you nothing
But you've got the things God gave you
So the music may yet be your saviour
Do you want a saviour, saviour
Say that you do,
You know you're wasted here, wasted here
That's all I wanted, something special
Something sacred in your eyes
For just one moment, to be bold and naked at your side
Sometimes I think that you'll never understand me
Maybe this time is forever, say it can't be
That's all you wanted, something special
Someone sacred in your life
Just for one moment, to be warm and naked at my side
Sometimes I think that you'll never understand me
But something tells me together, we'd be happy
I will be your father figure
(Oh, baby)
Put your tiny hand in mine
(I'd love to)
I will be your preacher teacher
(Be your daddy)
Anything you have in mind
(It would make me)
I will be your father figure
(Very happy)
I have had enough of crime
(Please let me)
I will be the one who loves you
Till the end of time
That's all I wanted
But sometimes love can be mistaken for a crime
That's all I wanted, just to see my baby's blue eyes shine
This time I think that my lover understands me
If we have faith in each other then we can be strong
I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
I will be the one who loves you
Till the end of time
If you are the desert, I'll be the sea
If you ever hunger, hunger for me
Whatever you ask for, that's what I'll be
So when you remember the ones who have lied
Who said that they cared
But then laughed as you cried
Beautiful darling, don't think of me
Because all I ever wanted
It's in your eyes baby, baby
And love can't lie, no
(Greet me with the eyes of a child)
My love is always telling me so
(Heaven is a kiss and a smile)
Just hold on, hold on
I won't let you go, my baby
I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
So I am gonna love you
Till the end of time
I will be your father
I will be your preacher
I'll be your daddy
I will be the one who loves you
Oh yeah
Work
Somebody told me
"Boy, everything she wants is everything she sees"
I guess I must have loved you
'Cause I said you were the perfect girl for me, baby
But now we're six months older
And everything you want and everything you see
Is out of reach, not good enough
I don't know what the hell you want from me but boy
Somebody tell me, won't you tell me
Why I work so hard for you?
Give you money
All to give you money
Some people work for a living
Some people work for fun, girl, I just work for you
They told me marriage was a give and take
Well, show me you can take you've got some giving to do
And now you tell me that you're having my baby
I'll tell you that I'm happy if you want me to
But one step further and my back will break
If my best isn't good enough
Than how can it be good enough for two?
I can't work any harder than I do
Somebody tell me, won't you tell me?
Why I work so hard for you?
Give you money
All to give you money
Why do I do the things I do? I'd tell you if I knew
My God, I don't even think that I love you
Won't you tell me?
Give you money
All to give you money
Somebody tell me, won't you tell me?
Why I work so hard for you?
Give you money
All to give you money
Somebody tell me, won't you tell me?
Why I work so hard for you?
Give you money
All to give you money
Somebody tell me, won't you tell me?
Why I do the things that I do?
Give you money
DESAFINADO
If you say my singing is off key, my love
You would hurt my feelings, don't you see, my love ?
I wish I had an ear like yours,
A voice that would behave
All I have is feeling
And the voice God gave
You insist my music goes against the rules
Yes, but rules were never made for lovesick fools
I wrote this song for you
But you don't care
It's a crooked song, ah,
But my heart is there
The thing that you would see if you would play the part
Is even if I'm out of tune I have a gentle heart
I took your picture with my trusty Rolleiflex
And now all I have developed is complex
Possibly in vain, I hope you weaken, oh my love
And forget those rigid rules that undermine my dream of
A life of love and music with someone who'll understand
That even though I may be out of tune when I attempt to say
How much I love you
And all that matters is the message that I bring,
Which is: my dear one, I love you
A Different Corner
George Michael
I'd say love was a magical thing
I'd say love would keep us from pain
Had I been there, had I been there
I would promise you all of my life
But to lose you would cut like a knife
So I don't dare, no I don't dare
'Cause I've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
And I'm so scared, I'm so scared
Take me back in time maybe I can forget
Turn a different corner and we never would have met
Would you care
I don't understand it, for you it's a breeze
Little by little you've brought me to my knees
Don't you care
No I've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
I'm so scared of this love
And if all that there is is this fear of being used
I should go back to being lonely and confused
If I could, I would, I swear
I can't light
No more of your darkness
All my pictures
Seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired
And time stands still before me
Frozen here
On the ladder of my life
It's much too late
To save myself from falling
I took a chance
And changed your way of life
But you misread
My meaning when I met you
Closed the door
And left me blind by the light
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
{Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Elton John!}
I can't find
Oh, the right romantic line
But see me once
And see the way I feel
Don't discard me, baby don't
Just because you think I mean you harm
Just because you think I mean you harm, oh
But these cuts I have, cuts I have
They need love, they need love, they need love to help them heal
Oh, don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free, oh
Cause' losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself it's always someone else that I see, yeah
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free baby, oh
Cause' losing everything is like the sun going down on me
{Mr. Elton John}
A Desert Road From Vegas To Nowhere
Someplace better than where you've been
A coffee machine that needs some fixin' -
In a little cafe just around the bend
I am calling you
Can't you hear me?
I am calling you.
A hot dry wind blows right through me
The baby's crying and i can't sleep
Bit we both know that a change is coming
Gome in closer, sweet release
Desert road from vegas to nowhere
Dear friends
So dear friends your love has gone
Only tears to dwell upon
I dare not say as the wind must blow
So a love is lost, a love is won
Go to sleep and dream again
Soon your hopes will rise and then
From all this gloom life can start anew
It's late
Time for bed
So I sit, and wait
For that gin and tonic
To go to your head
I know
It's a devious plan
But it's the only way that I know
To get those big bad car keys
Out of your hand
You know
That I remain a gentle man
But even so
There's only so much
A gentleman can stand
Sleep with me
Oh sleep with me tonight
My cards are on your table
My dreams are in your bed
If I was able
I'd be there instead
(return to top)
I'd say love was a magical thing
I'd say love would keep us from pain
Had I been there, had I been there
I would promise you all of my life
But to lose you would cut like a knife
So I don't dare, no I don't dare
'Cause I've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
And I'm so scared, I'm so scared
Take me back in time maybe I can forget
Turn a different corner and we never would have met
Would you care?
I don't understand it, for you it's a breeze
Little by little, you've brought me to my knees
Don't you care?
No, I've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
I'm so scared of this love
And if all that there is, is this fear of being used
I should go back to being lonely and confused
If I could, I would, I swear
it's late
time for bed
so I sit, and wait
for that gin and tonic
to go to your head
I know
it's a devious plan
but it's the only way that I know
to get those big bad carkeys
out of your habd
you know
that I remain a gentle man
but even so
there's only so much
a gentleman can stand
sleep with me
oh sleep with me tonight
my cards are on your table
my dreams are in your bed
if I was able
I'd be there instead
sleep with me tonight
(George Michael)
It was the third of september
That day I'll always remember, yes I will
'cause that was the day that my daddy died
Never had a chance to see him, no
Never heard nothing but bad things about him
Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth
Mama just hung her head and said
"papa was a rollin' stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone"
Hey, mama, is it true what they say
That papa never worked aday in his life
Some bad talk going around sayin'
Papa had three outside children
And another wife
That ain't right
Heard some talk about papa and his storefront
Preachin'
Talkin' about saving souls and all the time
Leachin'
And dealing in dirt
Stealin' in the name of the Lord
But mama she just said
Say I heard my papa was a jack of all trades
Is that what papa sent to an early grave?
Folks say papa would beg, borrow or steal just
To pay his bills
Hey, mama, folks say papa was never much in thinkin'
Spent most of his time chasin' women and drinkin'
But mother, I'm depending on you
To tell me the truth
I'm back, I'm back
Prouder than ever baby
Louder than ever may be
One more pill just one more beer
One less star in the atmosphere
For us,
But maybe she just wanted to be free
Heartless pictures on tv
Change that channel that could have been me
I said, maybe she just wanted to be free
So I just kept breathing my friends
Waiting for the man to choose
Saying this ain't the day that it ends
There's no white light and I'm not through
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
And I've got so much more that I want to do
With the music it, was it music that saved me
Or the way that you prayed for me
Cause either way I thank you, I'm alive
Motel motel makes it clear
One more voice we will never hear again
But maybe he just wanted to be free
And I don't know what thell what the gods, what the fuck
I'm saying, half the time, something divine, oh divine
Brought me back to you
And I know it, so I just kept breathing my friends
Waiting for some god to choose
Saying this ain't the day that it ends
Cause there's no white light and I'm not through
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
And I've got so much more that I want to do
Was it music that, was it science that saved me
Or the way that you prayed for me
Cause either way I thank you, I'm alive
And tomorrow is mine, I said tomorrow is mine
I've just to keep on breathing
I said no, don't let go
Keep on breathing, breathing
Got to keep on, got to keep on, got to keep on
Keep on breathing, breathing
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
And I've got so much more that I want to do
Was it music that, was it science that saved me
Or the way that you prayed for me
Would you like to go with me
Down my dead end street
Would you like to come with me
To Village Ghetto Land
See the people lock their doors
While robbers laugh and steal
Beggars watch and eat their meal -- from garbage cans
Broken glass is everywhere
It's a bloody scene
Killing plauges the citizens
Unless they own police
Children play with rusted cars
Sores cover their hands
Politicians laugh ad drink -- drunk to all demands
Families buying dog food now
Starvation roams the streets
Babies die before they're born
Infected by the grief
Now some folks say that we should be
Glad for what we have
Tell me would you be happy in Village Ghetto Land
The long and winding road that leads to your door,
Will never disappear,
I've seen that road before It always leads me here,
Leads me to your door.
The wild and windy night the rain washed away,
Has left a pool of tears crying for the day.
Why leave me standing here, let me know the way
Many times I've been alone and many times I've cried
Anyway you'll never know the many ways I've tried, but
Still they lead me back to the long and winding road
You left me standing here a long, long time ago
The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and endless skies, my love
To the dark and empty skies
The first time ever i kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hands
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command
The first time i ever lay with you]
And felt you heart so close to mine
And i knew our joy would fill the world
And would last till the and of time, my love
It would last till the end of time
The first time ever i saw your face
You've Changed
That sparkle in your eyes has gone
Your smile is just a careless yawn
You're breaking my heart, you've changed
You've changed
Your kisses are now so blase
You're bored with me in every way
I can't understand you've changed
You've forgotten the word i love you
Each memory that we've shared
You ignore every star above you
I can't realise you ever cared
You've changed
You're not the anges i once knew
No need to tell me that we're through
It's all over now, you've changed
You've forgotten the word i love you
Each memory that we've shared
You ignore every star above you
I can't realise you ever cared
You've changed
You're not the anges i once knew
No need to tell me that we're through
It's all over now, you've changed
Here we are on earth together,
It's you and I,
God has made us fall in love, it's true,
I've really found someone like you
Will it say the love you feel for me, will it say,
That you will be by my side
To see me through,
Until my life is through
Well, in my mind, we can conquer the world,
In love you and I, you and I, you and I
I am glad at least in my life I found someone
That may not be here forever to see me through,
But I found strength in you,
I only pray that I have shown you a brighter day,
Because that's all that I am living for, you see,
Don't worry what happens to me
Cause' in my mind, you will stay here always,
In love, you and I, you and I, you and I, you and I
In my mind we can conquer the world
When You're Awake
The things you think
Come from the dreams you dream
Thought has wings,
And lots of things
Are seldom what they see
Sometimes you think you've lived before
All that you live today
Things you do come back to you
As though they knew the way
Oh, the tricks your mind can play
It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But i can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing and the clothes you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But i can't remember where or when
Some things that happen for the first time
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems that we have met before
And laughed before
And loved before
But who knows where or when
It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But i can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing and the clothes you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But i can't remember where or when
Some things that happen for the first time
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems that we have met before
And laughed before
And loved before
I spend my nights down on the wharf
In unlit alleyways
By the church downtown
Where Sally prays
Come down sometime
We'll share a rusty can of corn...
And listen to the radio
I love you, I love you, it says...
CHORUS:
Where did your heart go
Did you put it on a train
Did you leave it in the rain
Or down in Mexico
You cry, but I don't know
I've heard it all before
There it goes again, the slamming of the door
Sometimes the river calls me
And at night it calls my name
Says "put your troubles down beside me"
Things have always been the same...
And rock 'n' roll won't teach me
What the river said that night
I jumped into this beauty
And drifted out of sight...
Wham bam I am, a man
Job or no job, you can't tell me that I'm not
Do you, enjoy what you do?
If not, just stop don't stay there and rot
You got soul
You got soul
I said get, get, get on down
I said get get get on down
I said get, get, get on down
I said get get get on down
Hey everybody, take a look at me, I've got street credibility
I may not have a job, but I have a good time
With the boys that I meet, down on the line
I said, ?I don't need you so you don't approve
Well who asked you to??, hey
Hey Jerk, you work this boy's got better things to do, hell
I ain't never gonna work, get down in the dirt I choose to cruise
Gonna live my life, sharp as a knife
I've found my groove, and I just can't lose
A.1. style, from head to toe cool cat flash, gonna let you know

Wham bam I am, a man
Job or no job, you can't tell me that I'm not
Do you, enjoy what you do?
If not, just stop don't stay there and rot
Party nights, and neon lights we hit the floors, we hit the heights
Dancing shoes, and pretty girls boys in leather, kiss girls in pearls
Hot-damn, everybody let's play so they promised you a good job, no way
One, two, three, rap c'mon everybody, don't need this crap
Wham, bam I am, a man
Job or no job, you can't tell me that I'm not
Do you, enjoy what you do?
If not, just stop don't stay there and rot
If you're a pub man, or a club man maybe a jet black guy, with a hip hi-fi
A white cool cat, with a trilby hat
Maybe leather and studs, is where you're at
Make the most, of every day don't let hard times, stand in your way
Give a wham, give a bam, but don't give a damn
'Cos the benefit gang, are gonna pay
Now reach up high, and touch your soul
The boys from wham, will help you reach that goal
It's gonna break your mama's heart
(So sad)
It's gonna break your daddy's heart
(Too bad)
But you'll throw the dice, and take my advice
Because I know, that you're smart

(Wham bam)
Enjoy what you do
Enjoy what you do
Enjoy what you do
You put the boom boom into my heart,
You send my soul sky high when your lovin' starts.
Jitterbug into my brain,
Goes bang, bang, bang, till my feet do the same.
But something's bugging me
Somthing ain't right
My best friend told me
What you did last night.
Left me sleeping
In my bed.
I was dreaming
But I should've been with you instead.
CHORUS:
Wake me up before you go go,
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo.
Wake me up before you go go,
I don't wanna miss it when you hit that high.
Wake me up before you go go,
'Cause I'm not planning on going solo.
Wake me up before you go go,
Take me dancing tonight.
I wanna hit that high...
You take the gray skies outa my way,
You make the sunshine brighter than Doris Day.
Turn a bright spark into a flame,
My beats per minute never been the same.
'Cause you're my lady,
I'm your fool.
It makes me crazy
When you act so cruel.
C'mon baby,
Let's not fight.
We'll go dancing
Everything will be alright.
REPEAT CHORUS
Cuddle up baby,
Move in tight.
We'll go dancing
Tomorrow night.
It's cold out there
But it's warm in bed.
They can dance,
We'll stay home instead.
So everyday I see you in some other face
They crack a smile, talk a while
And try to take your place
My memory serves me far too well
I just sit here on this mountain thinkin' to myself
You're a fool boy, why don't you go down find somebody
Find somebody else?
My memory serves me far too well
It's not as though we just broke up
It's not as though it was yesterday
But somethin' I just can't explain
Somethin' in me needs this pain
I know I'll never see your face again
C'mon now
I've got to be strong now
Now everybody's talkin' about this new decade
Like you say the magic numbers
Then just say goodbye to the stupid mistakes you made
My memory serves me far too well
Don't you know that the years will come and go
Some of us will change our lives
Some of us still have nothing to show
Nothing baby, but memories
And if of these wounds they are self-inflicted
I don't really know, how my poor heart could have protected me
But if I have to carry this pain
If you will not share the blame
I deserve to see your face again
C'mon now
You don't have to be so strong now
Come back, come back, come back, come back
Come back, come back, come back
Come back to me, darling
I will make it worth your while
Come back to your baby
I miss your kiss, I miss your smile
Seems to me the peace I search to find
That ain't goin' to be mine until you say you will
Don't you keep me waitin' for that day
I know, I know, I know you hear these words that I say
I know, I know, I know, I know
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
Come back, come back, come back, come back
Come back, come back
I feel so extraordinary
Something's got a hold on me
I get this feeling I'm in motion
A sudden sense, a sense of liberty
I don't care 'cause I'm not there
I don't care if I'm here tomorrow
Again and again and again I've taken too much
Of the things that cost you too much
I used to think that the day would never come
I'd see the light in the shade of the morning sun
But don't you know something's really got a hold on me
My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
To the childhood I lost replaced by fear
When I was a very small boy
Very small boys would talk to me
Now that we've grown up together
Can you believe?
They're afraid of what they see
That's the price that we all pay
Our valued destiny has come to nothing
I can't tell you where we're going
I guess there's just no way of knowing
I used to think that the day would never come
I'd see the light in the shade of the morning sun
My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
To the childhood I lost replaced by fear
(Something's got a hold on me)
My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
To the childhood I lost replaced by fear
Oh and I know and I know I know it's just so bitter
And it's so wrong, it's so wrong
Oh I know and I know but I I I have a question
Big fuckin' question
I'm in motion, motion
I'm in motion, I have a question
And I'm in motion, motion
I have a question, motion
I'm going down
Won't you help me
Save me from myself
I hear the sound of a memory
Maybe time will tell
Suddenly my life is like a river
Taking me places i don't want to go
But like all good men who swim too well
It takes all that i have just to cry for help
Then that voice in my head
Tells me no
I'm going down
Won't you help me
Save me from myself
I look around for a fantasy
Maybe
Who can tell?
Let me live my life beside the river
Take me to places where a child can grow
And then
Maybe the boy inside will forsake me
Maybe
The child in me
Will just let me go
I'm going down
The cold, cold water is rushing in
I'm going down
And i would beg to be forgiven
Is that enough?
I think it's over
See, everything has changed
And all this hatred may just make me strong enough
To walk away
They may chase me to the ends of the earth
But I've got you babe
And they may strip me of the things that I've worked for
But I've had my say
So hear me now
I've enough of these chains
I know they're of my making
No one else to blame for where I stand today
I've no memory of truth
But suddenly the audience is so cruel
So God, hey God you know why I'm through
Through
I guess it's tough, I guess I'm older
And everything must change
But all this cruelty and money instead of love
People, have we no shame?
They may chase me to the ends of the earth
But I've got you babe
And they may take away the things that I've worked for
But you'll pull me through
It's so clear to me now
I've enough of these chains
Life is there for the taking
What kind of fool would remain in this cheap gilded cage
I've no memory of truth
But suddenly the audience is so cruel
Oh God, I'm sorry
I think I'm through
I think I'm through
No more lying friends
Wanting tragic ends
Though they do pretend
They won't go when i go
All those bleeding hearts
With sorrows to impart
Were right here from the start
And they won't go when i go
And i'll go where i've longed
To go so long
Away from tears
Gone from painful cries
Away from saddened eyes
Along with him i'll bide
Because they won't go when i go
Big men feeling small
Weak ones standing tall
I will watch them fall
They won't go when i go
And i'll go where i've longed
To go so long
Away from tears
Unclean minds mislead the pure
The innocent will leave for sure
For them there is a resting place
People sinning just for fun
They will never see the sun
For they can never show their faces
There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner
Who will take more than he will give
He ain't hardly gonna give
The greed of man will be
Far away from me
And my soul will be free
They won't go when i go
Since my soul conceived
All that i believe
The kingdom i will see
'Cause they won't go when i go
When i go
Where i'll go
No one can keep me
Sometimes I Get The Feelin'
I was back in the old days - long ago
When we were kids, when we were young
Things seemed so perfect - you know?
The days were endless, we were crazy - we were
Young
The sun was always shinin' - we just lived for fun
Sometimes it seems like lately - i just don't know
The rest of my life's been - just a show.
Those were the days of our lives
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing is true-
When i look and i find, i still love you.
You can't turn back the clock, you can't turn
Back the tide
Ain't that a shame? (ain't that a shame?)
I'd like to go back one time on a roller coaster ride
When life was just a game
No use sitting and thinkin' on what you did
When you can lay back and enjoy it through your kids
Sometimes it seems like lately i just don't know
Better sit back and go - with the flow
'Cause these are the days of our lives
They've flown in the swiftness of time
These days are all gone now but some things remain
When i look and i find - no change
Those were the days of our lives
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing is true-
When i look and i find, i still love you
I still love you
I love you
I still love you
I still love you
I still love you
Take My Life
Time has been twisting the knife
I don't recognise
People i care for
Take my dreams
Childish and weak at the seams
Please don't analyse
Please just be there for me
The things that i know
Nobody told me
The seeds that are sown
They still control me
There's a liar in my head
There's a thief upon my bed
And the strangest thing
Is i cannot get my eyes open
Take my hand
Lead me to some peaceful land
That i cannot find
Inside my head
Wake me with love
It's all i need
But in all this time
Still no one said...
If i had not asked
Would you have told me
If you call this love
Why don't you hold me
There's a liar in my head
There's a thief upon my bed
And the strangest thing
Is i cannot get my eyes open
Give me something i can hold
Give me something to believe in
I am frightened for my soul, please, please
Make love to me, send love through me
Heal me with your crime
The only one who ever knew me,
We've wasted so much time
I've had enough of danger
People on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just tryin' to find some peace
I think it's time that you let me know
So if you love me, say you love me
But if you don't just let me go
'Cuz teacher there are things that I don't want to learn
And the last one I had made me cry
So I don't wanna learn to hold you, touch you
I think that you are mine
Because there ain't no joy for an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
When you were just a stranger
And I was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
Now I feel the heat
That look in your eyes tellin' me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote this song, I know it's wrong
Just let me go
Teacher there are things that I don't want to learn
And the last one I had made me cry
So I don't wanna learn to hold you, touch you
I think that you are mine
'Cuz there ain't no joy for an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye
So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you are wrong, you are not that strong
Let me go
Teacher, there are things that I still have to learn
But the one thing I have is my pride
Oh, so I don't wanna learn to hold you, touch you
I think that you are mine
Because there ain't no joy for an uptown boy
Who just isn't willing to try
I'm so cold inside
Star People
Counting your money rill your soul turns green
Star people
Counting the cost of your desire to be seen
I do not count myself among you
I may be living in a dream
It's just there seem so many of you
Can't help but hope
There's a difference between....you and me
You're a star
(i'm talking to you)
You're a star
Maybe your mama gave you up boy
(it's the same old same old)
Maybe your daddy didn't love you enough girl
Star people
Never forget your secret's safe with me
Just look at all the wonderful people
Trying to forget they had to pay for what you see
It's a dream
With a nightmare stuck in the middle
But where would you be
Without all of that attention
You'd die
I'd die
We'd die wouldn't we
(well wouldn't we)
Big, big, star!
Should go far!
Talk about your mother
Talk about your father
Talk about the people
Who have made you what you are
Talk about your teacher,
The bully boy who beat you
Talk about the people who have paid
For that new sports car
Did you get off on a bad foot, baby
Do you have a tittle tale to tell
Is that why you're a star?
Is that what makes a star?
Nothing comes for nothing, baby
That fame and fortune's heaven sent
And who gives a fuck about your problems, darling
When you can pay the rent
Higher, higher
Won't you come with me
Baby gonna get my soul free
Now you and me
I guess we see things differently
We're night and day
A bad connection some would say
And i don't want nothing to change
I don't want nothing to change
Because
When you touch me baby
I don't have no choice
Oh that sweet temptation
In your voice
Higher, higher
Won't you come with me
Baby gonna get my soul free
Now seems to me
Some things have just got to be
The games we play
Break up make-up day by day
And i don't want nothing to change
Said i don't want nothing to change
Because
When you touch me baby
I don't have no choice
Oh that sweet temptation
In your voice
Higher, higher
Won't you come with me
If you've got something to say
Why don't you say it
If you've got something to give
Why don't you give it to me
Day after day i have to say it
We're moving further from heaven
And closer to the deep blue sea
'Cause i have no secrets from you
And i have nothing left to hide
And i'm open to all your questions
Why can't you reach inside
Like i have
Like i have for you
And all these games that you play
Don't tell me how a man should be
Some would say if you knew
You wouldn't be here with me
I love you
I still love you
But i guess it's time to let you be
'Cause i have no secrets from you
And i have nothing left to hide
And i'm so tired of all these questions
'Cause maybe you just changed your mind
Like i have
Like i have
Like i have
Like i have
When i was at your doorstep
You told me to look around
Said come in
You and your heart sit down
But you'd better watch your step
'Cause you're not far from the ground
And one fine day this all falls down
Like i have
Like i have
If you've got something to say
Why don't you say it
If you've got something to give
Why don't you give it to me
Day after day i have to say it
If we've got something to save
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord, what you're doing to me?
I've spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
I work hard every day of my life
I work till I ache in my bones
At the end I take home
My hard earned pay all on my own
I get down on my knees and I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes, Lord
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Every day I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down, they say I'm goin' crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
I got no common sense, I got nobody left to believe
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Got no feel, I got no rhythm, I just keep losing my beat
I'm okay, I'm alright, I ain't gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
Someday I'm gonna be free, Lord
Find me somebody to love

And when I get that feeling
I want sexual healing
Sexual healing, oh baby
Makes me feel so fine
Helps to relieve my mind
Sexual healing baby, is good for me
Sexual healing is something that's good for me
Whenever blue teardrops are fallin'
And my emotional stability is leaving me
There is something I can do
I can get on the telephone and call you up baby
And honey I know you'll be there to relieve me
The love you give to me will free me
If you don't know the thing you're dealing
Ohh I can tell you, darling, that it's sexual healing
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Let's make love tonight
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
'Cos you do it right
Baby, I got sick this mornin'
A sea was stormin' inside of me
Baby, I think I'm capsizin'
The waves are risin' and risin'
And when I get that feeling
I want sexual healing
Sexual healing is good for me
Makes me feel so fine, it's such a rush
Helps to relieve the mind, and it's good for us
Sexual healing, baby, it's good for me
Sexual healing is something that's good for me
Well, it's good for me and it's so good to me my baby, ohh
Come take control, just grab a hold
Of my body and mind, soon we'll be making it, honey
I'll be feeling fine, the way you heal me
The way you thrill me, keep me comin' to you
For you to sexually fulfill me
You're my medicine, open up and let me in
Darling, you're so great, I can't wait for you to operate
I can't wait for you to operate, baby
I can't wait for you to operate
And baby, when I should be asleep at night
I stay up and read
And baby, baby, baby, I can't help but feel uptight
For my passion needs
And when I get this feeling
I want sexual healing
When I get this feeling
I want sexual healing
Baby, I can't stand it much longer
It's getting stronger and stronger
And when I get this feeling
I need sexual healing
Ohh, when I get this feeling
I need sexual healing
I gotta have sexual healing, darling
'Cos I'm all alone
And I need sexual healing, darling
Till you come back home
Please don't procrastinate
My daddy got here on the gravy train
I guess my mama had a real bad start to the game
They went walking and she took his name
Round here
There was dancing in the afternoons those days
Waiting tables, chasing girls with the money he made
It was 1957, and love felt the same, love felt the same
Frightened little girl, she makes a break
Into the arms of... something better
Round here
I hear my mama call in Kingsbury Park
Just me and David and a football that glowed in the dark
Waiting patiently to make my mark
Round here
And I remember my first day at school
And I remember trouble, and thinking I was so cool
I remember it all, like yesterday
Don't you
Every time I try to leave this place
Something inside says, "You can do better"
Round here
So come with me, let me show you where I've lived
I want to put my hands in this earth again
Music fell like rain to the streets
The Specials and The Jam, to The Beat
Even though I think I've seen everything there is to see of this world
I gotta be thankful that this crowded space
Is the place of my birth
When all that I wanted, was to be someone.
Two little Hitlers in an old church hall
Some cheesy covers and those neighbours that banged on the walls
Andy says it's time to show them all
Round here
Please sir, we two have other plans
Please sir you would not understand,
What's going on
Is magical, can't you see
That some of us do more than dream
Every time I try to leave this place
Something inside says, "Keep on keeping, on and on...."
Around here
So come with me, let me show you where I've lived
I want to put my hands in this earth again
Music fell like rain to the streets
The Specials and The Jam, ABC
Even though I think I've seen everything there is to see of this world
I gotta be thankful that this crowded space
Is the place of my birth
My birth,
In this town,
Yes I guess I got to be someone
To be somebody
In the Beautiful city
This place I call home
These streets of London
It's everything I know (everything and everybody)
On the streets of London
I want to thank you
In my house there's a circle, where the life comes in
From the stars to my home, down through the stone,
I could have been so alone,
Without my precious box
Have I a family? I guess not
I've never seen a lot of beauty
In my life.
Well in your house there are servants, and the lights all dim
Such a beautiful home, your agent's on the phone, they never
leave you alone
The party never stops!
You say that's fantasy, I say "So what, I need a little beauty..."
So let me in,
You know you've kind of got under my skin
You know we never see a lot of the action round here
My dear
You may want to strip again
And you look so fine in your Gucci suit
And you're making more money than your daddy
could have imagined
But people can go out of fashion, honey, yeah, any time
So take that picture, stop acting so dumb
Don't you know that the moment will come
I will find someone like you
But with something extra, I'm sorry baby
I don't know why
I don't know why that is
The systematic breakdown of my community
You know I hate my job, I try to save but God
There's just never enough
Switch on, the pressure - stops
You know the one for me, she's on Fox
And she's a little beauty...
Give me your life, give me your life, I want it
Because lately, it's so freezing out here
(This side of the glass, life keeps kicking my ass)
In so many ways, but you make it good
Made me the kind of happy that my baby never could
(This side of the glass...)
So take that picture, stop acting so dumb
Don't you know that the moment will come
I will find someone like you
But with something extra, I'm so sorry baby
I don't know why
I don't know why that is
Precious keeps me company
Keeps me from being alone
Because no-one comes in the morning
No-one comes in the evening time
I'd sit and wait for the phone to ring
I could be waiting my whole damn life
So sick of the same old faces
In this street, where nobody talks to me
And the funny side of the situation is
I don't care, I'll always be there
When you come down from the sky
And make yourself at home
In my house
Because these days it's the money the money
The money, honey, or your life
I said don't you know you can't have both
Stop acting so dumb
The moment will come
I will find someone like you
Something extra, (always happens baby to me) sorry baby
I don't know why (something)
Said I don't know why that is
You may want to strip again
You may want to let me in
You may want to sacrifice
More than you think is fair or right
You may want to think again
You may want to watch your friends
You may want to change your mind
Some people said, if I could only care for you
Some people said, he will never love again
Some people said, you can see it in his eyes
He keeps it all inside and yet . . . .
Some people say, in time, we all teach ourselves to live this way
And for a thousand days, I was lost
I thought never to be found,
Underground
And don't you think I'm ready now?
So please send me someone to love . . .
Please send me someone, someone to love
As much as I loved you
(The way I loved you, darlin')
Please, please send me someone, someone to love
Please send me someone
Any time, any day, any time, any day now
Any time any day, any time, any day now
Please, please send me someone
Just to hold me now that you're gone
Some people say, "I hope you know I'm there for you"
Some of the people said - nothing,
And nothing was just fine
(You know how I get sometimes . . .)
And for a thousand days, I was lost
I said, "Heaven knows I'm ready to be found",
Underground
But I think I'm ready now
So please send me someone to love
Please send me someone, someone to love
As much as I loved you
Please, please send me someone, someone to love
Please send me someone
Please send me someone
Any time any day any time any day now
Any time any day any time any day now
Please, please send me someone
So say that you will, because the nights are long
Without our song to sing
Just search the clouds until . . . until
So say that you will
Show me right from wrong,
Without our song to sing
Just search the clouds until . . . until
And Darlin' darlin' though I can't replace you, there's a
space in my heart
A space that you left in my heart
Just give me something that will pull me back from the blue
Oh send me someone like you
Darlin' darlin' no I can't replace you, there's a space in my heart
A space that you left in my heart
Just give me something that will pull me back from the blue
I Think I'm Done With The Sofa
I think i'm done with the hall
I think i'm done with the kitchen table, baby
Let's go outside (let's go outside)
In the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
Let's go outside
In the moonshine
Take me to the places that i love best
So my angel she says, don't you worry
'Bout the things they're saying, yeah
Got no friends in high places
And the game that you gave away
Wasn't worth playing
Let's go outside
In the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
Let's go outside
In the meantime
Take me to the places that i love best
And yes i've been bad
Doctor won't you do with me what you can
You see i think about it all the time
Twenty four seven
You say you want it, you got it
I never really said it before
There's nothing here but flesh and bone
There's nothing more, nothing more
There's nothing more
Back to nature, just human nature
Getting on back to -
I think i'm done with the sofa
I think i'm done with the hall
I think i'm done with the kitchen table, baby
Let's go outside
In the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
Let's go outside
In the moonshine
Take me to the places that i love best
And yes i've been bad
Doctor won't you do with me what you can
You see i think about it all the time
I'd service the community
(but i already have you see!)
I never really said it before
There's nothing here but flesh and bone
There's nothing more, nothing more
There's nothing more
Let's go outside
Dancing on the d-train baby
When the moon is high
And the grass is jumpin'
Come on, just keep on funkin'
I should have known
It seemed too easy
You were there
And I was breathing blue
Strange don't you think I'm looking older?
But something good has happened to me
Change is a stranger
You have yet to know
Well, you're out of time I'm letting go
You'll be fine well that much I know
You're out of time I'm letting go
I'm not the man you want
I should have known
It seemed so easy
You were there
I thought I needed you
Strange don't you think I'm looking older?
But something good has happened to me
Change is a stranger
Who never seems to show
Well, you're out of time I'm letting go
You'll be fine
(Or maybe you won't)
You're out of time I'm letting go
I'm not the man that you want
I never should have looked back in your direction
I know that just the same old fights again, baby
These are wasted days without affection
Hey Nikita is it cold
In your little corner of the world
You could roll around the globe
And never find a warmer soul to know
Oh I saw you by the wall
Ten of your tin soldiers in a row
With eyes that looked like ice on fire
The human heart a captive in the snow
Oh Nikita You will never know anything about my home
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you
Nikita I need you so
Oh Nikita is the other side of any given line in time
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Oh no, Nikita you'll never know
Do you ever dream of me
Do you ever see the letters that I write
When you look up through the wire
Nikita do you count the stars at night
And if there comes a time
Guns and gates no longer hold you in
And if you're free to make a choice
I feel so unsure
as I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
as the music dies, something in your eyes
calls to mind the silver screen
and all its sad good-byes
I'm never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance that I've been given
so I'm never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you
Time can never mend
the careless whispers of a good friend
to the heart and mind
ignorance is kind
there's no comfort in the truth
pain is all you'll find
I'm never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
and waste this chance that I've been given
so I'm never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you
Never without your love
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But noone's gonna dance with me
Please stay
And I'm never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance that I've been given
so I'm never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you
(Now that you're gone) Now that you're gone
(Now that you're gone) What I did's so wrong
My mother had a brother
They say that I was born on the day that he died
Someone to cling to, she said
When all the noises and the shame came calling
My mother had a brother
I thought I knew them all, I thought I knew
But she lied
I said, "Show me his face again, tell me again why he died"
She said he couldn't wait for the things that I've seen
She said he wasn't strong enough, he never dared to dream a life like mine
My mother had a brother
Over-sensitive and kind
Seems it all became too much for him..
It seems he took his own life
Mum, I can't imagine the joy and pain in equal measure
Tears in the dirt, and all over your newborn treasure
I guess he had to wait until my momma had me
I guess he couldn't wait another moment to be free
In endless sky.....
But mama will you tell him from your boy
The times they changed
I guess the world was getting warmer
And we got stronger
Mother will you tell him about my joy
I live each day for him
The sun came out, yeah, and I'm just breathing it in
My mother had a brother
Same desire, different time
Seems the empty spaces tortured him
Until he took his own life
I don't know why I waited so long for love
I just don't know what I was thinking of..
All that wasted time
But mama will you tell him from your boy
The times they changed
I guess the world was getting warmer
While we got stronger
Mother will you tell him about my joy
I live each day with him
Your son came out, yeah,
And I'm still breathing it in
And I swear now that freedom is here
I'm gonna taste it all for you boy
I'm bad to the bone, I'm just a little torn
I'm making so much love
So those of us who have nothing to fear
We've got to make damn sure that it was worth it
I'm bad to the bone, I'm just a little stoned
I'm making so much love
I was a prisoner, but he saved me
Broke into my dreams and said, "Who cares?"
I was a prisoner, so disgrace me
I'm glad to be home
I've been in and out of favour with lady luck
I gotta tell you
I've seen things i never wanted to see
I've got to get back on my feet
I feel like i've been sleeping
Sweet, sweet time
Has been a real good friend of mine
Waiting for that change of season
Oh the winter's been so long
Searching for that rhyme or reason
You've just got to
Move on
Hold it together, move on
Life's so short, move on
Only time will set you free
You put your fears behind you
Better get yourself where you wanna be
I think of all the days and nights i spent crying
And i move on
I've been in and out of favour with love
Because i gotta tell you
I've been things i never wanted to be
And then some angel called me up
He told me i was sleeping
Said don't waste time
'Cos even angels say goodbye
Waiting for that change of season
Oh the winter's been so long
Searching for that rhyme or reason
You've just got to
Move on...
And oh, there goes another season
Getting hard to find a decent song to play
But oh, i guess i got my reasons
Everybody thinks i'm doing a.o.k
They ought to know by now
You put your tears behind you
Better get yourself where you wanna be
I think of all the days and nights i spent crying
Before my angel set me free
Is There A Time For Keeping A Distance
A time to turn your eyes away
Is there a time for keeping your head down
For getting on with your day
Is there a time for kohl and lipstick
A time for cutting hair
Is there a time for high street shopping
To find the right dress to wear
Here she comes
Heads turn around
Here she comes
To take her crown
Is there a time to walk for cover
A time for kiss and tell
Is there a time for different colors
Different names you find it hard to spell
Is there a time for first communion
A time for east 17
Is there a time to turn the mecca
Is there a time to be a beauty queen
Here she comes
Beauty plays the crown
Here she comes
Surreal in her crown
Dici che il fiume
Trova la via al mare
E come il fiume
Giungerai a me
Oltre i confini
E le terre assetate
Dici che come fiume
Come fiume
L'amore giunger
L'amore
E non so pi pregare
E nell'amore non so pi sperare
E quell'amore non so pi aspettare
You say that the river
Finds the way to the sea
And as the river
You'll come to me
Beyond the borders
And the thirsty lands
You say that as river
As river
Love will come
Love
And i cannot pray anymore
And i cannot hope in love anymore
And i cannot wait for love anymore
Is there a time for tying ribbons
A time for christmas trees
Is there a time for laying tables
Too strong woah
You're too strong for me baby
I've got to learn to say no
Something's wrong with me baby
I've got to learn to say no
I try to give you up but it's hard
Playing games left a hole in my heart
You've got me doing things I can't understand
Won't someone save me take this gun from my head
You're too strong for me baby
I've got to learn to say no (ugh)
Something's wrong with me baby
I've got to learn to say no
Same situation again and again
I'll say I'm leaving I just don't know when
You know that I could turn my back on the pain
It's just that something called pleasure keeps on calling my name
You're too strong for me baby
I've got to learn to say no (yeah)
Something's wrong with me baby
I've got to learn to say no
Ain't nobody gonna win this one baby
Breakdown
Love me do
Tell me true
Alibies
Little white lies
Gimme that
Gimme that
Gimme that
Gimme
Ain't nobody gonna win this one baby
Something called pleasure keeps on calling my name
You're too strong for me baby
I've got to learn to say no yeah ooooh
Something's wrong with me baby
I've got to learn to say no
I'm just a slave to your heart
You're too strong for me baby (Too strong)
I've got to learn to say no (I gottta learn to say no)
Something's wrong with me baby (Something's wrong)
I've got to learn to say no
I've got to
I've got to, got to, got to

Hey Sister, Go Sister, Soul Sister, Go Sister
You are far, when I could have been your star
You listened to people, who scares you to death
And from my heart
Strange that you were strong enough to even make a start
But you'll never find peace of mind, till you listen to your heart
People, you can never change the way they feel
Better let them do just what they will, for they will
If you let them steal your heart from you
People, will always make a lover feel a fool
But you knew I loved you
We could have shown them all
We should have seen love through
Fooled me with the tears in your eyes
Covered me with kisses and lies
So goodbye
But please don't take my heart
You are far, I'm never gonna be your star
I'll pick up the pieces and mend my heart
Maybe I'll be strong enough, I don't know where to start
But I'll never find peace of mind while I listen to my heart
People, you can never change the way they feel
Better let them do just what they will, for they will
If you let them steal off your heart
And people, will always make a lover feel a fool
But you knew I loved you
We could have shown them all
But remember this, every other kiss that you'll ever give
Long as we both live
When you need the hand of another man
One you really can surrender with
I will wait for you, like I always do
But something there that can't compare with any other
You are far, when I could have been your star
You listened to people, who scared you to death
And from my heart
Strange that I was wrong enough to think you'd love me too
I guess you were kissing a fool
I've had enough of danger from people on the streets
I’m looking out for angels, just trying to find some peace
I think it's time that you let me know
So if you love me, say you love me
Well, if you don't just let me go
Cos teacher, there are things that I don't wanna learn
And the last one I had made me cry
So I don't wanna learn to hold you
Touch you, say that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy for an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
When you were just a stranger and I was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger, now I feel the heat
That look in your eyes telling me no
So you think that you love me, you know that you need me
I wrote the song, I know it's wrong, just let me go
And teacher, there are things that I don't want to learn
Oh, the last one I had made me cry
So I don't want to learn to hold you
Touch you, say that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy for an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong, you're not that strong, let me go
And teacher, there are things that I still have to learn
But the one thing I have is my pride
So I don't want to learn to hold you
Touch you, think that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy for an uptown boy
Who just is unwilling to try
I’m so cold inside
Close friend of mine as a child fell into a slumber
No sign of life since '75
Then one day he just, what do you know
I guess God just called his number
He called me up he called me up and said
"I've been awake about a week
I'm thinking about asking the doctor
If he could put me back to sleep"
Then he laughed and said
"Hey all the girls they look the same"
Don't they know just what their mothers
Paid in blood, and tears to change
But the words that made me cry
The thing he softly said
It stayed with me, it keeps messing with my head
He said, "If Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come John & Elvis are dead?"
Youth, beautiful youth
We walked through the walls until we found the truth
And said "Change it, it's ugly just change it"
Everyone we used to know
Must have given up, so long ago
You can see it, it's written on their faces
And the inside of their clothes
But the words that made me cry
'Cos I knew just what they meant
He turned to me and said
"Hey boy, if Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come John & Elvis are dead?"
"Tell me if Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come Marvin & Elvis are dead?"
I said "If Jesus Christ is going to save us from ourselves
It's just your jive talkin' telling me lies
Jive talkin' you wear a disguise
Jive talkin' so misunderstood, yeh
Jive talkin' you're really no good
Oh my child, you'll never know
Just what you mean to me
Oh my child you got so much
You gonna take away my energy
With all your jive talkin' you telling me lies, yeh
Good loving still gets in my eyes
Nobody believe what you say
It's just your jive talkin', that's gets in the way, oh no
Ta bee rup...
Oh my love you're so good
Treating me so cruel
There you go with your fancy lies
Leaving me looking like a dumb struck fool
With all your jive talkin', you telling me lies, yeh
Jive talkin' you wear a disguise
Jive talkin' so misunderstood, yeh
Jive talkin' you just ain't no good
You know love talkin' is all very fine, yeh
Jive talkin' just isn't a crime
And if there's somebody you'll love till you die
Then all that jive talkin' just gets in your eye...
Jive talkin' telling me lies yeh
Good loving still gets in my eyes
Nobody believe what you say
It doesn't really matter that i loved you
How many reasons call
It doesn't really matter at all
It doesn't matter that i failed to
Break down your father's wall
It really doesn't matter at all
Why tell me you don't understand when you do
I thought i had something to say
But it really doesn't matter at all.....
I changed my name
To be rid of the things that i want from you
It's strange
But a name is a name and the truth is the truth
Oh, there is always
Always someone there to remind me
So i learn to live with shame
Tell myself i feel no pain
But i do
And if i have to tell you
Then it really doesn't matter at all.....
And it's no good looking back
Because time's a thief and i believe that
I'm too old for that
We're just saying the things that we have said
Forever
It doesn't really matter that i loved you
How many seasons fall
It's too bad
As round the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assured that
I'll be loving you always
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older everyday
Just as all that's born is new
You know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns the stars out of the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the day that 8 times 8 times 8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day
As today I know I'm living for tomorrow
Could make me the past
But that I mustn't fear
I know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
Cause I'll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8 times 8 times 8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day
As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
For now I know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
'Cause I'll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8 times 8 times 8 is 4
I Remember You
You're the one who made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago
I remember you
You're the one who said i love you too
Didn't you know
I remember too
A distant bell
And stars that fell
Like rain out of the blue
When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of them all
Then i will tell them i remember you
I remember you
You're the one who made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago
I remember you
You're the one who said i love you too
Didn't you know
I remember too
A distant bell
And stars that fell
Like rain out of the blue
I miss you darling
When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of them all
Like a warrior that fights
And wins the battle
I know the taste of victory
Though i went through some nights
Consumed by the shadows
I was crippled emotionally
Somehow i made it through the heartache
Yes i did. I escaped.
I found my way out of the darkness
I kept my faith (i know you did), kept my faith
When the river was deep i didn't falter
When the mountain was high i still believed
When the valley was !ow it didn't stop me, no no
I knew you were waiting. I knew you were waiting for me
With an endless desire i kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet
Like the bridge is on fire
The hurt is over, one touch and you set me free
I don't regret a single moment, no i don't looking hack
When i think of all those disappointments
I just laugh (i know you do), i just laugh
When the river was deep i didn't fairer
When the mountain was high i still believed
When the valley was low it didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting. I knew you were waiting for me
So we were drawn together through destiny
I know this love we snared was meant to be
I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting
Let me tell you a secret, put it in your heart and keep itSomething that I want you to knowDo something for me, listen to my simple storyAnd maybe we'll have something to show

How can I help you? Please let me try toI can heal the pain that you're feeling insideWhenever you want me, you know that I will beWaiting for the day that you say you'll be mine
He must have really hurt youTo make you say the things that you doHe must have really hurt youTo make those pretty eyes look so blue
He must have known that he couldThat you'd never leave himNow you can't see my love is goodAnd that I'm not him
How can I help you? Please let me try toI can heal the pain, won't you let me inside?Whenever you want me, you know that I will beWaiting for the day that you say you'll be mine
Won't you let me in, let this love begin?Won't you show me your heart now?I'll be good to you, I can make this thing trueShow me that heart right now
Who needs a lover that can't be a friendSomething tells me I'm the one you've been looking for, ohIf you ever should see him againWon't you tell him you've found someone who gives you more?
Someone who will protect you, love and respect youAll those things that he never could bring to youLike I do or rather I wouldWon't you show me your heart like you should?
How can I help you? Please let me try toI can heal the pain that you're feeling insideWhenever you want me, you know that I will beWaiting for the day that you say you'll be mine
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
I've never been one
For playing games
You can move your mouth forever
But the words sound just the same
Something like
Bang bang you're dead
Couldn't we just make love instead
Say yes because it's what we do best
And I've had such a hard day
Take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you I may as well just...
How much - do I have to say
What more - do you have to see
What will it take to make you love me
Well you're not the first
You're not the last
You're not even the one who loves me the best
But all I think about is you
So take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you I may as well just...
So take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you I may as well just...
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Please don't wander from my door
I've never been one
For playing games
You can move your mouth forever
But the words sound just the same
Bang Bang you're dead
Shouldn't we just make love instead
Say yes 'cause it's what we do best
And I've had such a hard day
So don't bring me down
Won't you give me a break
Somebody give me a break now!
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Sweet little boy with oh such a big mouth
Harsh words can get you into hot water
When people don't understand you baby
I'm always here for you
And I
And I will never bring you down, down, down my baby
Trust me
I want you to trust me
Oh trust me
'Cause I won't bring you down
(Don't bring me down)
I won't bring you down
Do you trust me
Jimmy Got Nothing made himself a name
With a gun that he polished for a rainy day
A smile and a quote from a vigilante movie
Our boy Jimmy just blew them all away
He said it made him crazy
Twenty-five years living hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth
Sweet little baby on a big white doorstep
She needs her mother but her mother is dead
Just another hooker that the lucky can forget
Just another hooker, it happens everyday
She loved her little baby
But she couldn't bear to see her living hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth
I believe in the gods of America
I believe in the land of the free
But no one told me
That the gods believe in nothing
So with empty hands I pray
And from day to hopeless day
They still don't see me
Everybody talks about the new generation
Jump on the wagon or they'll leave you behind
But no one gave a thought to the rest of the nation
Like to help you buddy but I haven't got the time
Somebody shouted, "Save me"
But everybody started living hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth
There's a big white lady on a big white doorstep
She asked her daddy and her daddy said, "Yes"
Has to give a little for the dollars that we get
Has to give a little, they say it's for the best
Somebody shouted, "Maybe"
But they kept on living from hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth
So she ran to the arms of America
And she kissed the powers that be
And someone told me
That the Gods believe in nothing
So with empty hands I pray
And I tell myself one day
They just might see me

Because I would really, really love to stick around oh yeah
Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirls pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me
To win the race, a prettier face
Brand new clothes and a big fat place on your rock and roll TV
But today the way I play the game is not the same
No way think I'm gonna get me some happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else I've got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now, is take these lies
And make them true somehow
All we have to see is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me, yeah, yeah
Freedom, freedom, freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom, freedom, freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
What a kick just a buddy and me
We had every big-shot goodtime band on the run boy
We were living in a fantasy
We won the race, got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face for the boys on MTV
But today the way I play the game has got to change, oh yeah
Now I'm gonna get myself happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I stopped the show
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Don't think that I'll be back again
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now, is take these lies
And make them true somehow
All we have to see is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me, yeah, yeah
Freedom, freedom, freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom, freedom, freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Well it feels like the road to heaven
But it feels like the road to hell
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
Posing for another picture, everybody's got to sell
But when you shake your ass, they notice fast
And some mistakes were build to last
That's what you get, that's what you get
That's what you get, I say that's what you get
I say that's what you get for changing your mind
That's what you get for changing your mind
That's what you get, that's what you get
And after all this time
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now, is take these lies
And make them true somehow
All we have to see is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me, yeah, yeah
Freedom, freedom, freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom, freedom, freedom
You've gotta give for what you take, yeah
You gotta give for what, give for what, give
May not be what you want from me

One Day You Say You Love Me
The next you tell me you don't
One day you say you will
The next you tell me you won't
Hey little baby, there ain't much point in hanging around, yeah
One day you make me feel that your love is in my hands
One day you say you'll stay
The next you're changing your plans
Hey little baby, there ain't much point in hanging around, yeah
'Cos if you ain't got time for me
I'll rind another fantasy
It's kind of funny that you think
That i'm the boy to make you cry
I can make you happy if only for a while, little baby
Oh little baby, i can give you all the loving that your heart desires
'Cos if you ain't got time for me
I'll find another fantasy
I said it could be the price of love
Could be the price of hate
What am i guilty of?
Why do you make me wait so long?
I don't know your intentions
Look to the skies above
I'm in the hands of fate
Push 'til it gets to shove
I've got to know for heavens sake is this love, is this love or invention
'Cos baby can't you see
I'll find another fantasy
You hang around the people who you are sure make you cry
And i can make you happy if only for a while, little baby
Oh little baby, i can give you all the loving that your heart desires
If only for a while little baby
Oh little baby, i can give you all the loving that your heart desires
'Cos if you ain't got time for me
I'll find another fantasy
You take someone's heart and you kick it around
Keep on picking it up so you can watch it come down
I don't know what i'm supposed to do
Why i wait fur you to make up your mind
Could you please be so kind
When you know what to do
I'll be in the next room
Well
I guess it would be nice if I could touch your body
I know not everybody has got a body like you
But I've got to think twice before I give my heart away
And I know all the games you play because I played them
But I need some time off from that emotion
Time to pick my heart up off the floor
When that love comes down without devotion
Well
It takes a strong man
Baby
But I'm showin you the door
Because I've got to have faith
I've got to have faith
Because I've got to have faith
Faith
Faith
I've got to have faith
Faith
Faith
Baby
I know you're asking me to stay
Stay
Please
Please
Please
Don't go away
You say I'm giving you the blues
Maybe you mean every word you say
Can't help but think of yesterday
And another who tied me down to loverboy rules
Before this river becomes an ocean
Before you throw my heart back on the floor
Oh baby
I reconsider my foolish notion
Well
I need someone to hold me
But I'll wait for something more
I've got to have faith
I've got to have faith
Before this river becomes an ocean
'Cause I've got to have faith
Oh yeah
Work
Somebody told me
"Boy, everything she wants is everything she sees"
I guess I must have loved you
'Cause I said you were the perfect girl for me, baby
But now we're six months older
And everything you want and everything you see
Is out of reach, not good enough
I don't know what the hell you want from me but boy
Somebody tell me, won't you tell me
Why I work so hard for you?
Give you money
All to give you money
Some people work for a living
Some people work for fun, girl, I just work for you
They told me marriage was a give and take
Well, show me you can take you've got some giving to do
And now you tell me that you're having my baby
I'll tell you that I'm happy if you want me to
But one step further and my back will break
If my best isn't good enough
Than how can it be good enough for two?
I can't work any harder than I do
Somebody tell me, won't you tell me?
Why I work so hard for you?
Give you money
All to give you money
Why do I do the things I do? I'd tell you if I knew
My God, I don't even think that I love you

Yes, I'm walking on new air just living my life
Better believe, I'm gonna get what's mine
See, I don't have the time for the haters
And all the time that I wasted
How careless of me
Too young and stupid to see
I put my life in their hands

Oh and I know that they want me to hate them
There's no hurry for now
I'll just have to be the bigger man, see
Dancin', dancin' with the freaks now

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
May your every New Year dream come true
Sweet December song
The melody that saved me
On those less than silent nights
When snow would fall upon my bed
White sugar from Jesus
And take me to the day
She could always smile
The Virgin Child would always show, you see
Just to save me
(Just to save me)
There was always Christmas time
To wipe the year away
I guess that morning they'd decided
That the war would have to wait
There was always Christmas time
Jesus came to stay
I could believe in peace on Earth
And I could watch TV all day
So I dreamed of Christmas
Maybe since you've gone
I went a little crazy
God knows they can see (the child)
But the snow that falls upon my bed
That loving I needed
Falls every single day
For each and every child
The Virgin smiles for all to see
But you kept her from me
There was always Christmas time
To wipe the year away
I guess that morning they'd decided
That the war would have to wait
There was always Christmas time
Jesus came to stay
I could believe in peace on Earth
And I could watch TV all day
And so I dreamed of Christmas
Yes, I dreamed like you
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
So dear friends your love has gone
Only tears to dwell upon
I dare not say as the wind must blow
So a love is lost, a love is won
Go to sleep and dream again
Soon your hopes will rise aand then
From all this gloom life can start anew
When your heart's in someone else's hands
Monkey see and monkey do
Their wish is your command
You're not to blame
Everyone's the same
All you do is love and love is all you do
I should know by now the way i fought for you
You're not to blame
Everyone's the same
I know you think that you're safe
Mister
Harmless deception
That keeps love at bay
It's the ones who resist that we most want to kiss
Wouldn't you say?
Cowboys and angels
They all have the time for you
Why should i imagine that i'd be a find for you
Why should i imagine
That i'd have something to say
But that scar on your face
That beautiful face of yours
In your heart there's a trace
Of someone before
When your heart's in someone else's plans
Things you say and things you do
They don't understand
It's such a shame
Always ends the same
You can call it love but i don't think it's true
You should know by now
I'm not the boy for you
You're not to blame
Always ends the same
I know you think that you're safe
Sister
Harmless affection
That keeps things this way
It's the ones who persist for the sake of a kiss
Who will pay
Cowboys and angels
They all take a shine to you
Why should i imagine that i was designed for you
Why should i believe
Mama's gone and got herself a new man
It's a shame,
He's the same
Mama please please, stop pretending
This time, it won't end in tears
I find myself, with a new daddy
My mama needs love you see
Guess she don't wanna be lonely
And nobody's keeping score
I don't say hi to those guys no more
Said mama can't you feel me
Holding my breath as they knock, knock, knock on our door
You're just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels,
The same, the same....
Johnny's gone and got himself a new man
He gets laid, every day
Johnny please please, stop pretending
This time, may just end in tears
Take care of yourself
Because you won't find 'daddy'
When you're popping those pills
Oh Johnny, is the danger just part of the thrill?
And nobody's keeping score
Johnny those guys that you shake it for
I said "Johnny can't you hear them
Saying mama knows best as they knock, knock,
knock on your door"
You're just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, the same, the same
Taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, wheels, wheels
Pretty girl, little girl, what were you thinking
Just 18 at the time
You were a mother and child, at the same time
You were a mother and child
So young and fucked up baby
Always higher than a child should see...
Forgive me
To the top of that building
Under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, wheels, wheels
Mama don't you let him stay
From bastard to loser, hurt you, used you in every way,
Mama, don't you let him stay, please
Don't let him stay
I said Jesus, Mary, and the Saints above,
I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen and all its sad goodbyes
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste a chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth, pain is that all you'll find
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste a chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
With or without your love
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But now, who's gonna dance with me?
Please stay
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste a chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
(Now that you're gone)
Now that you're gone
(Now that you're gone)
Was what I did so wrong?
Once I Built A Railroad, Made It Run
Made it race against time
Once i built a rairoad, now it's done
Brother can you spare a dime?
Once i built a tower to the sun
Brick and rivet and lime
Once i built a tower, now it's done
Brother can you spare a dime?
Once in khaki suits
Gee, we looked swell
Full of that yankee doodle de dum
Half a million boots went slogging through hell
I was the kid with the drum
Say don't you remember, they called me al
It was al all the time
Say don't you remember, i'm your pal!
Buddy can you spare a dime?
Once i built a railroad, made it run
Made it race against time
Once i built a rairoad, now it's done
Brother can you spare a dime?
Once i built a tower to the sun
Brick and rivet and lime
Once i built a tower, now it's done
Brother can you spare a dime?
Once in khaki suits
Gee, we looked swell
Full of that yankee doodle de dum
Half a million boots went slogging through hell
I was the kid with the drum
Say don't you remember, they called me al
It was al all the time
Say don't you remember, i'm your pal!
Bless the day you came into my life, I still remember
Horny cowboy with your stars and stripes
Bringing the light into my day
With that Texan smile
Too afraid to love, to hope that you would stay
So broken that I never saw you chase the past away
My American Angel, he doesn't want to fight (doesn't need to fight)
My U.S of Angel, holds me in the dead of night
Takes away that fear that I carried forever
You stopped to wipe away my tears
And you stayed forever and more
(I don't think that I...)
Yesterday it seemed my life was colder than December
All alone I watched the eagles fly
Even the light seemed to have changed
In the Californian sky
Through all of those battles then you came
Stepped out of the fading light
Said, "Baby I'm American, dry your eyes again,
Because I'm here to save your life"
My American Angel, he doesn't want to fight (doesn't need to fight)
My U.S of Angel, holds me in the dead of night
Takes away that fear that I carried forever
You stopped to wipe away my tears
But you stayed forever amore
And more, didn't you baby..
Because I don't think that I could love and lose again
I don't think I have the strength
I don't think I have the strength
(You Can't Keep Holding It In When It's Something Good)
Hey this won't take much time
We won't touch, we'll just wait for signs
And nothing was further from my mind
Than this moment with you
But if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
If i'd only seen it sooner
But what away with your hands you had
I wanted that moment with you
I know that its wrung
But "if you need me, i'm here", turns me on
I can't help thinking its a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking its a miracle
Say, you don't waste much time
We don't touch, do we baby?
But still my hands are tied
For that moment with you
But if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
If i'd only seen it sooner
But what a way with your hands you have
I wanted that moment with you
You know that i'm strong
And i've no reason to fear, am i wrong?
I can't help thinking it's a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking it's a miracle
I can't help thinking it's american
I can't help thinking it's a miracle
I can't help thinking it's a miracle you're here
You can't keep holding it in when it's something good
Get up, get up
You can't keep holding it in when it's something good
Get up,get up
And who can you trust? Dealing out justice
With a minimum of fuss
Who baby
It's late, time for bed
So we sit, and I wait
For that gin and tonic
To go to your head
I know it's a devious plan
But it's the only way that I know
To get those big bad car keys
Out of your hand
You know that I remain a gentle man
But even so there's only so much a gentleman can stand
Sleep with me
Oh, sleep with me tonight
My cards are on your table
My dreams are in your bed
If I was able, I'd be there instead
