I don't know why I like him, I just only know I do
I don't know why I trust him, I just know his heart is true
I don't know why he's more a man than any man I know
I don't know how I know the man's for real but I still know
The man is more than what meets the eye
He is worn and weary from life
He is rugged but he's got style
The man has got what matters inside
Weary, yes he must get weary but he doesn't say
But you can read between the lines that wind along his face
The man has got his memories that he hides inside his mind
And you can see the sadness in the eyes they hide behind
The man is more than what meets the eye
He is worn and weary from life
He is rugged but he's got style
The man has got what matters inside
Love him, yes I've always loved him and I always will
He holds a place in my heart no one else could ever fill
He's always been my hero, the best friend I've ever had
The man is something special and I'm proud that he's my dad
The man is more than what meets the eye
He is worn and weary from life
He is rugged but he's got style

Ooh yeah

This is the man
(this is the man)
This is the man
(You, right here shorty, told you, I got you
Like the way I scooped you, when those fagget niggaz shot you?
I'ma hold you down, and I mean that, for real)
But everytime you beef with a nigga, I end up havin' to kill
(Ain't like that, and hey, forget about them 2 kids
'Bout to do a deal, somethin' nice as you is)
Oh you think
(Nah, I'm just playin', what's up?
I got some new bitches, I know you tryin' to fuck)
Not really
(What? I ain't your man no more?
Because a nigga, don't need a hand no more?
You know how we do, if one goes sore
You'll take the pussy and go up in the roar)
It's like now
Where you goin'
I ain't trying to take it
Fuckin' with a nigga like you, I won't make it
(It'll be what it is)
Yo, you in for the night?
I'm 'bout to take it to the crib
(You get home alright?)
The snake
The rat
The cat and the dog
How you gonna live
When you're in the fog?
I ain't fuckin' with this nigga, no more
Word to my mother
Fuck 'em, so ya know 'em for sure
Word to my brother
It's like he's gotten worse than before
Son of I wonder
What type of dirt this nigga got in store for me to get under
Then I get a call
(X, Luis just killed your cousin, underneath the projects
Don't get back, them niggaz will pay, then I got you, told you I got you
Yo, I got you)
I'm in a catch 22
But them niggaz gotta pay
But I know he's gonna be askin' for a favor one day
But fuck it
I ain't got no choice in the matter
Them faggets killed my peep
And I wanna see him splatter
(That's what I'm talkin' 'bout, we ain't on no bitch hit
And use the same gun that you killed them 2 kids with
Is that hard to live with?)
(See, you still a playa)
But what you want from me?
(Uh...I'll tell you later)
Shit is all over the news
Bomb goes off in central
What the fuck have I gotten myself into?
My mental is like
Get the fuck outta there
I'm out
(Hey, goin' somewhere?)
(What the bag for?)
Fuck it, what you want?
(Can a nigga come inside for a minute, and puff a blunt?)
Here we go again
(After what I just gave you, with you actin' like that
when you asked for that favor)
Yo, I ain't ask you for shit
(Oh yes you did, when you really needed something, and you was out, you did
You sold me your soul, when you didn't say no
Just let a nigga go, and give me what you owe
Fuck what you think, ain't shit for free
And a mothafucker you know, can't defeat me)
Forgive me father, for I have sinned
And with your help I know, the devil won't win
Here we are on our way to hell
We're gonna do it, and we do it well
(spoken)
I´ts flashing red, His plastic head,
Make a move and you´re dead,
I´m gonna fill your mind with lead.
Pass your papers on the ground,
and you better be cool,
Never drive with a roach in the car,
´cause I ain´t no fool.
It´s The man! It´s The Man!
He´ll keep you waiting, if you´ve got a date,
So you better relax ´cause you´re gonna be late.
Flashin´! Trashin´! Crashin´! It´s The Man! It´s The Man!
So we play the game, And it´s always the same,
I´ve got the power of the name,
I´m gonna drive you insane.
Pull over to the right ´couse
you´re gonna be wrong,
No matter what you got to say,
you better save it for a song.
Dedicated to The Man,
I say, dedicated to The Man,
It´s The Man!
I'm tired of running, i'm tired of who i am
I've been obsolved from this prison which i stand.
I pray for freedom from everything i see
Somebody please set me free
Oh no i'm never looking back
No now i'm in for the attack
Here i stand, you know who i am, running for the highway
I'm the man
Here i stand, catch me if you can, burning down the highway
I'm the man,
I see your justice i watch your wicked ways,
steal their minds
and then you will betray.
You feed them silence and make them lose their will
freedom song running still.
Oh no i'm coming after you.
No now there's nothing you can do.
Here i stand, you know who i am, running for the highway
I'm the man
Here i stand, catch me if you can, burning down the highway
I'm the man,
Here i stand, you know who i am, running for the highway
I'm the man
Here i stand, catch me if you can, burning down the highway
I'm the man,
Here i stand, you know who i am, i'm running long
Here i stand, catch me if you can, coming after you
I've been running hard.
I've been running long.
Awww but something sure is missin
Somethings just aint the same
Now he thinks back on yesterday
All those victory lanes
Better wars just to steal the race
And to taste that sweet champagne
You either loved him or you hated him
Intimidation was to blame
Now Days each time they drop that flag
Somethings just aint the same
Somethings just aint the same
Ohhh they miss The Man Today
So they standin next to cheer
And Wish The Man Was here
Somethings Just aint the same
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
awww he starts up that old chevy truck
And he leaves the parking lot
Hes thinks of all he'd done today
and he thanks god for what hes got
His Youngest Son sittin by his side
Dale Jr's Still a Fan
He knows the future's lookin bright
But He Wont Forget The Man
Somethings just aint the same
Ohhh they miss The Man Today
So they standin next to cheer
And Wish The Man Was here
Somethings Just never change
So they standin next to cheer
and toast him with their beer
Somethings will never change
Nooo no noooo
[Softer Spoken]
Theres a Three Upon his ball cap
and a three upon his shirt
He Remembers how he ran this track
and all those old ones in the dirt
Froze to the bone in my igloo home
Counting the days 'til the ice turns green
You know when heaven and hell collide
There are no in-betweens
(I'm the yo-yo man)
Flames on your skin of snow turn cold
(Always up and down)
Cold is the wind that blows through my headstone
Collecting the bones of my friend tonight
Sowing the seeds in a fruitless land
You know when prayers all hit the ground
There is no higher hand
(I'm the yo-yo man)
Flames on your skin of snow turn cold
(Always up and down)
Cold is the wind that blows through my headstone
I'm the yo-yo man, always up and down
So take me to the end of your tether
(I'm the yo-yo man)
Flames on your skin of snow turn cold
(Always up and down)
Cold is the wind that blows through my...
(I'm the yo-yo man)
Flames on your skin of snow turn cold
(Always up and down)
Cold is the wind that blows through my...
(I'm the yo-yo man)
And the flames on your skin of snow turn cold
(Always up and down)
Cold is the wind that blows through our headstones
I'ma stay thuggin, how I came is how I leave
When I say somethin, best believe that's how it be
Motherfuckers, too - yeah I said it, nigga, I mean it
Bitch was dressed in gangsta and switch, wodie, I seen it
One of these Juvie-fuckin' hoes gon' get you caught up
Me, I wear ReeBoks and Girbauds, and play it smarter
If them boys in tha ben, they go bluckahda on tha block
I'ma be gettin' somewhere, your ass gonna get shot
You paid 1500... I paid 5999
Got diamonds and Rolexes that shine at tha same time
I ain't scared... but I ain't dumb, and I ain't stupid
I know how ta survive in tha project and how ta do shit
If I hit a hustle I ain't tellin' tha biz
'Cause tha witness will tell them people who tha murderer is
Your main man'll put four or five to your wig
Take tha Coke can and throw you off the side of the bridge
Gotta be able to think, gotta know when to move out
Gotta read through the lines, gotta know what these hoes 'bout
Gotta separate your business from your family and friends
Gotta bust a nigga head if he plottin to do you in
I done did dirt, so I know what's tha consequences
Let my shit burst, tryin' ta knock out a nigga denchures
Always keep cool to see through these fools
Cause we do the shit that people see on the news
So, follow me now into a world of stress
Where wodie tryin' ta get it all 'cause he don't settle for less
Ain't satisfied 'til all of his beef is put to rest
Slangin' that iron... with a soldier rag on his neck
And credit for they people in case they wanna connect
He ain't hidin'.. he still ridin'.. in the 'jects
He gotta be willin' to play tha game 'til his death
Nigga bangin'.. hit you in your brain, now who next
I be cool at all times and acknowledge.. when I'm wrong
Shit I went through when tha Feds got my game real small
I'm not tha smartest motherfucker walkin
But I can tell a fake motherfucker when he talkin
My daddy always told me, "Boy, don't be a follower
You got a lot of pride, but some you need to swallow up
You keep that attitude, you won't see tomorrow, bruh"
I soak it up, and got better as a hustler
I'm a head buster, a straight up Nolia nigga
Young thugger
Fuck up, I show ya, nigga, that I don't play
Keep a K for protection
With fifty... never run without my weapon
I stand out here, tie ducked with bandanas
I show no fear, what'chu 'bout we can handle
I'm real as they came, a untamed guerrilla
'Bout bustin' your brains, whoever be wit'cha
I have no pics, I split your shit
Whoever you with, I'ma split they shit
Ya steal or get stole, wet or get wet
Bust or get bust on, move a chest or lose a chest
Try not to miss when you cock back and shoot
You shoot and miss, then it's all on you
Ain't no game, it's real dog, live or ya die
Real in tha field, dog, ya live or ya die
Even though I'm a lil' bitty nigga
Look, I got big nuts and they hang low, nigga
I ain't scared ta bust
Want beef, let me know.. and look, we can tear this bitch up
You or me.. me or you.. gon' bite tha dust
Wuz up, nigga
Wuz up, nigga
You afraid, go ta church, I ain't scared at all
Lose your head, fuck with Turk, 'cause I'm knockin' it off
I'ma keep my hands clean, ride for some change
Niggas gon' ride for me, niggas that's untamed
Niggas who bang that heroin, or snort that cocaine
Niggas out that project don't mind sprayin' thangs
Fools who that slang that iron for me (When tha beef start)
When tha beef start, ride for me
Full moon - I'm watching you
Your light touches my face
You seem to be so great tonight
I wonder if you change your light
When the moon falls down to earth
Danger in the universe
When the moon falls down to earth
Fire in the universe
Darkness around our light
I feel a danger in this night
Tonight the moon has got a face
Laughing into our space
It's grinning - it's laughing
Deriding our helpless lifes
We'll explode in a fireball
When the moon starts to fall
When the moon falls down to earth
Danger in the universe
When the moon falls down to earth
Fire in the universe
Days after the collision
Silence in the universe
An empty place - a dark space
Where our planet lived before
When the moon falls down to earth
Danger in the universe
When the moon falls down to earth
Alas he was the highwayman
The one that comes and goes
And only the highway-woman
Keeps up with the likes of those
And she in all her magic
With hands as quick as light
Took him to be a challenge
And went into the night
And he in all his glory
Was far ahead of her
But she was never sorry
For wishes that would burn
Enter competition
She chases beneath the moon
Her horse is like a dragonfly
She is just a fool
And she wonders is this real
Or does she just want to be queen
And he fights the way he feels
Is this the end of the dream?
And then he sees her coming
Heartbeats on the wind
Considers slowing down
But then, he could never win
And she out in the distance
Sees him against the sky
A pale and violent rider
A dream begun in wine
And she wonders is this real
Or does she just want to be queen
And he fights the way he feels
Is this the end of the dream?
A dream as the thunder wakes her
And her highwayman disappears
Or a life already lived before
In eyes welled with tears
Today and still today they ride
Will they ever win?
He the glory, she the love
Still they try again
He the glory, she the love
Still they try again
He the glory, she the love
By Alfred Noyes
---------------------------------
Part One
I
The wind was a torrent of darkness among the gusty trees,
The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
The road was a ribbon of moonlight, over the purple moor,
And the highwayman came riding-
Riding-riding-
The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn-door.
II
He'd a French cocked-hat on his forehead, a bunch of lace at his chin,
A coat of the claret velvet, and breeches of brown doe-skin;
They fitted with never a wrinkle: his boots were up to the thigh!
And he rode with a jewelled twinkle,
His pistol butts a-twinkle,
His rapier hilt a-twinkle, under the jewelled sky.
III
Over the cobbles he clattered and clashed in the dark inn-yard,
And he tapped with his whip on the shutters, but all was locked and barred;
He whistled a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord's black-eyed daughter,
Bess, the landlord's daughter,
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair.
IV
And dark in the old inn-yard a stable-wicket creaked
Where Tim the ostler listened; his face was white and peaked;
His eyes were hollows of madness, his hair like mouldy hay,
But he loved the landlord's daughter,
The landlord's red-lipped daughter,
Dumb as a dog he listened, and he heard the robber say-
V
";One kiss, my bonny sweetheart, I'm after a prize to-night,
But I shall be back with the yellow gold before the morning light;
Yet, if they press me sharply, and harry me through the day,
Then look for me by moonlight,
Watch for me by moonlight,
I'll come to thee by moonlight, though hell should bar the way.";
VI
He rose upright in the stirrups; he scarce could reach her hand,
But she loosened her hair i' the casement! His face burnt like a brand
As the black cascade of perfume came tumbling over his breast;
And he kissed its waves in the moonlight,
(Oh, sweet black waves in the moonlight!)
Then he tugged at his rein in the moonlight, and galloped away to the West.
Part Two
I
He did not come in the dawning; he did not come at noon;
And out o' the tawny sunset, before the rise o' the moon,
When the road was a gipsy's ribbon, looping the purple moor,
A red-coat troop came marching-
Marching-marching-
King George's men came marching, up to the old inn-door.
II
They said no word to the landlord, they drank his ale instead,
But they gagged his daughter and bound her to the foot of her narrow bed;
Two of them knelt at her casement, with muskets at their side!
There was death at every window;
And hell at one dark window;
For Bess could see, through the casement, the road that he would ride.
III
They had tied her up to attention, with many a sniggering jest;
They bound a musket beside her, with the barrel beneath her breast!
";Now keep good watch!"; and they kissed her.
She heard the dead man say-
Look for me by moonlight;
Watch for me by moonlight;
I'll come to thee by moonlight, though hell should bar the way!
IV
She twisted her hands behind her; but all the knots held good!
She writhed her hands till here fingers were wet with sweat or blood!
They stretched and strained in the darkness, and the hours crawled by like
years,
Till, now, on the stroke of midnight,
Cold, on the stroke of midnight,
The tip of one finger touched it! The trigger at least was hers!
V
The tip of one finger touched it; she strove no more for the rest!
Up, she stood up to attention, with the barrel beneath her breast,
She would not risk their hearing; she would not strive again;
For the road lay bare in the moonlight;
Blank and bare in the moonlight;
And the blood of her veins in the moonlight throbbed to her love's refrain.
VI
Tlot-tlot; tlot-tlot! Had they heard it? The horse-hoofs
ringing clear;
Tlot-tlot, tlot-tlot, in the distance? Were they deaf that they did
not hear?
Down the ribbon of moonlight, over the brow of the hill,
The highwayman came riding,
Riding, riding!
The red-coats looked to their priming! She stood up strait and still!
VII
Tlot-tlot, in the frosty silence! Tlot-tlot, in the echoing night
!
Nearer he came and nearer! Her face was like a light!
Her eyes grew wide for a moment; she drew one last deep breath,
Then her finger moved in the moonlight,
Her musket shattered the moonlight,
Shattered her breast in the moonlight and warned him-with her death.
VIII
He turned; he spurred to the West; he did not know who stood
Bowed, with her head o'er the musket, drenched with her own red blood!
Not till the dawn he heard it, his face grew grey to hear
How Bess, the landlord's daughter,
The landlord's black-eyed daughter,
Had watched for her love in the moonlight, and died in the darkness there.
IX
Back, he spurred like a madman, shrieking a curse to the sky,
With the white road smoking behind him and his rapier brandished high!
Blood-red were his spurs i' the golden noon; wine-red was his velvet coat,
When they shot him down on the highway,
Down like a dog on the highway,
And he lay in his blood on the highway, with a bunch of lace at his throat.
* * * * * *
X
And still of a winter's night, they say, when the wind is in the trees,
When the moon is a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
When the road is a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor,
A highwayman comes riding-
Riding-riding-
A highwayman comes riding, up to the old inn-door.
XI
Over the cobbles he clatters and clangs in the dark inn-yard,
And he taps with his whip on the shutters, but all is locked and barred;
He whistles a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord's black-eyed daughter,
Bess, the landlord's daughter,
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair.

The moon is not only beautiful
It is so far away
The moon is not only ice cold
It is here to stay
When I lay me down will you still be around?
When they put me six feet underground
Will the big bad beautiful you be around?
Everyone says they know you
Better than you know who
Everyone says they own you
More than you do
When I lay me down will you still be around?
When they put you six feet underground
Will the big bad beautiful moon be around?
'Cuz the moon is not only beautiful

She is the star shining at the center of the earth.
She is alive, crying for her children to return.
The bride awaits the promise of the prophets to carry her away.
Born again, the blood of men,
The desert rejoice, blossom as the rose.
She, Israel,
She, Israel,
She is the heart of it all, bride of the lamb,
Start of the fall, her time is at hand.
She is the end, dying;
She is brought back from the sword,
She will arise, destiny,
Then the temple is restored.
Her birth is pain.
To finish her transgression 'til only time remains.
Born in war, bound for deceit,
Weep for your children, weep not for me.
She, Israel,
She, Israel,
She is the heart of it all, bride of the lamb,
Start of the fall, her time is at hand.
O, Israel; O, Israel.
Who is the stranger who breaks every rule?
The Highwayman
He isn’t a rogue, He isn’t a fool.
The Highwayman
He’s dashing and daring and ever may care.
The Highwayman
With a glint in his eye and the wind in his hair.
The Highwayman
Who is the highwayman? Who is the highwayman?
He’s rough but he’s handsome, he’s gentle but strong.
The Highwayman
They say he’s a nobleman who has gone wrong.
The Highwayman
He’ll take all your jewels but do it with style.
The Highwayman
As he pockets your diamonds he’ll flash you a smile.
The Highwayman
Who is the Highwayman? Who is the Highwayman?
I’ve never known anyone like him; he’s like no one that I’ve ever met.
How easy he’ll be to remember, how hard he will be to forget.
(break in lyrics)
He’s stolen from princes, he’s stolen from Earls.
The Highwayman
But his greatest pleasure is stealing from girls.
The Highwayman
You’ll feel empty inside when you see him divide.
The Highwayman
You may not realize but he’s stolen your heart.
The Highwayman
The time has come for you
Why don't you see the omen
Open your eyes and cast their lies aside
Your craven kings are headed nowhere
Your blinded leaders, they're headed nowhere
You're headed nowhere
I know they tell you to believe their truth
But I will never stand this pain
I know they say not to worry anymore
But I just cannot look away,
The truth is plain
Closing your eyes is nothing but surrender
How can you ask me
If we can save this world
For them died so many years ago
Get on your knees and greet the omen
How often did they prove your ignorance to you
How many times did they betray
They truth is plain, this truth is plain
Selling the hard-won values we achieved
You know that nothing will ever break the beast
You know there are millions left for dead
But no one broadcasts their cries
And now you dare to ask me,
If we can save this world
For them died so many years ago
Get on your knees and greet the omen
Closing your eyes is nothing but surrender,
A rotten act of treason
Please never ask me,
If we can save this world
For them died so many years ago

The wind was a torrent of darkness among the gusty trees
The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon the cloudy seas
The road was a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor
And the highwayman came riding,
Riding, riding,
The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn-door
He'd a french cocked hat on his forehead, a bunch of lace at his chin
A coat of claret velvet, and breeches of brown doe-skin
They fitted with never a wrinkle; his boots were up to the thigh!
And he rode with a jewelled twinkle,
His pistol butts a-twinkle,
His rapier hilt a-twinkle, under the jewelled sky
Over the cobbles he clattered and clashed in the dark inn-yard
And he tapped with his whip on the shutters, but all was locked and
barred;
He whistled a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord's blackeyed daughter,
Bess, the landlord's daughter
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair
"One kiss, my bonny sweetheart, I'm after a prize tonight,
But I shall be back with the yellow gold before the morning light;
Yet if they press me sharply, and harry me through the day,
Then look for me by the moonlight,
Watch for me by the moonlight,
I'll come to thee by the moonlight, though hell should bar the way"
He rose upright in the stirrups; he scarce could reach her hand
But she loosened her hair I' the casement! His face burnt like a brand
As the black cascade of perfume came tumbling over his breast; and he
kissed its
Waves in the moonlight, (oh, sweet black waves in the moonlight!)
The he tugged at his rein in the moonlight,
And galloped away to the west
He did not come at the dawning; he did not come at noon,
And out o' the tawny sunset, before the rise o' the moon,
When the road was a gypsy's ribbon, looping the purple moor,
A red-coat troop came marching,
Marching, marching
King George's men came marching, up to the old inn-door
The said no word to the landlord, the drank his ale instead,
But they gagged his daughter and bound her to the foot of her narrow
bed;
Two of them knelt at the casement, with muskets at their side!
There was death at every windows,
And hell at one dark window;
For bess could see, through the casement, the road that he would ride
They had tied her up to attention, with many a sniggering jest;
They had bound a musket beside her, with the barrel beneath her breast!
"Now keep good watch!" And they kissed her
She heard the dead man say
Look for me by the moonlight
Watch for me by the moonlight
I'll come to thee by the moonlight, though hell should bar the way!
She twisted her hands behind her, but all the knots held good!
She writhed her hands till her fingers were wet with sweat of blood!
They stretched and strained in the darkness and the hours crawled by
like years!
Till, now, on the stroke of midnight,
Cold, on the stroke of midnight,
The tip of one finger touched it!
The trigger at least was hers!
Tlot-tlot! Had they heard it? The horse-hoofs were ringing clear
Tlot-tlot, in the distance!
Were they deaf that they did not hear?
Down the ribbon of moonlight, over the brow of the hill
The highwayman came riding,
Riding, riding!
The red-coats looked to their priming!She stood up straight and still!
Tlot, in the frosty silence! Tlot, in the echoing night!
Nearer he came and nearer! Her face was like a light!
Her eyes grew wide for a moment!
She drew one last deep breath,
Then her finger moved in the moonlight,
Her musket shattered the moolight,
Shattered her breast in the moonlight and warned him with her death!
He turned; he spurred to the west; he did not know she stood
Bowed, with her head o'er the musket, drenched with her
Own red blood! Not till the dawn he heard it; his face grew grey to hear
How bess, the landlord's daughter,
The landlord's black-eyed daughter,
Had watched for her love in the moonlight, and died in the darkness
there
Back,he spurred like a madman, shrieking a curse to the sky
With the white road smoking behind him and his rapier
Brandished high! - blood-red were the spurs I' the golden noon;
Wine-red was his velvet coat,
When they shot him down on the highway,
Down like a dog on the highway,
And he lay in his blood on the highway, with the bunch of lace at his
throat.
Still of a winter's night, they say, when the wind is in the trees,
When the moon is a ghostly galleon, tossed upon the cloudy seas,
When the road is a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor
A highwayman comes riding,
Riding, riding,
He's for the sailboat
He's for the sea
He's for Betty Ford
He's for anarchy
He'll die for his country
He'll stick a flag in your soul
He'll jump on your sandcastle
He'll drown in your moat
He's for the money
And he just wants to sleep with me
He's for the money
He just wants to sleep with me
She tries too hard
She doesn't try at all
She'll push you over
She'll break your fall
She puts it out
She reels it in
She makes immaculate love
She makes original sin
She's for the money
She just wants to sleep with me
She's for the money
And she just wants to sleep with me
She's missing the notes but she hears the strain
She knows she's been strung
But she looks for change
He's for the birds
He's for all living things
I'm lost for words
I don't believe in things
I'm for the money
I just want to sleep with me
In an office high above us all
An executive received an important phone call
He said, "Yes sir, I'll do all that I can"
Said, "Goodbye" and hung up with the Man
That's the Man pulling all the strings
That's the Man in charge of everything
And the trumpet sings
I'm tired of working for the Man
For the Man
I'm tired of working for the Man
Get up, get up, get out of bed
Another hopeless dawn dawns on the hopeful people
The bell strikes nine up in the steeple
People work hard, doing all they can
Putting money in the bank account of the Man
That's the Man pulling all the strings
That's the Man when the alarm clock rings
And the trumpet sings
Get up, get up, get out of bed
I'm tired of working for the Man
For the Man
I'm tired of working for the Man
Meanwhile back up in the office
They're making charts to graph the profits
They will work their whole life span
To line the pockets of the Man
That's the Man pulling all the strings
That's the Man in charge of everything
And the trumpet sings
I'm tired of working for the Man
For the Man
I'm tired of working for the Man
Get up, get up
Walk me out by the water's edge
Oh, my brother
I'm coming down
We are you
We are almost there
And the man keeps coming 'round
I don't know who was right
Or what they saw in you that night
But here we are under moonlight
Words...cannot describe
Walk me out in the morning sun
Oh, sweet momma
I'm coming down
We are young
We are almost there
And the man keeps coming 'round
And I don't know who was right
Or what they saw in you that night
Here we are under moonlight
Words cannot describe
It's clear to me
You're like
The oceans and the light
Try and you'll remember what you used to be
It's clear to me this day will take you for a ride
A place that you once longed to be
And there it is...
I don't know who was right
Or what they saw in you that night
Here we are under the moonlight
Words...cannot describe
Walk me out
By the water's edge
Oh, my brother
I'm coming down
We were young
We are almost there
And the man keeps coming 'round
I was a highwayman, along the coach roads I did ride,
With sword and pistol by my side.
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade.
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade.
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five:
But I am still alive.
I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide.
And with the sea I did abide.
I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico.
I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow.
And when the yards broke off, they said that I got killed:
But I am living still.
I was a dam builder across the river deep and wide;
Where steel and water did collide.
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado,
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below.
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound:
But I am still around.
I'll always be around,.
And around and around and around and around.
I fly a starship across the Universe divide.
And when I reach the other side,
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can.
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again.
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain;
But I will remain.
And I'll be back again,
Don't play football
We play Fenders
We chop fish in kitchen blenders
We're a disgrace to our gender
We're the men!
Always together night and day
It makes our girlfriends think we're gay
But who needs women when you've got friends?
We're the men!
The men will never let me down
The men will always be around
The men won't argue, scratch, or fight
The men won't say, "I've got a headache tonight"!
On Friday night we'll all jump in a car
And blow all our money at a go-go bar
Sober up for a week to do it over again because
We're the men!
We're twenty-one, but we act like we're ten
We're as immature as we've ever been
Maybe we'll grow up, but I don't know when because
We're the men!
We'll get together
Drink together
Sweat together
Stink together
Laugh together
Cry together
Live together
And die together!
should I leave Erebus
to his own device
what Chaos
when the curtain rises
and the houselights dim
with whitecake
on my face
the actress backstage
contemplates
laying a Universal egg
still a broken heart
is a broken heart
and Illumination
is in fact
Performance
In the dark
In the cold
In the sky
I can fly
I am old
But I can see
For miles
And miles
I am silver
I am gold
I am white
I am blue
I am rock
I am chaste
I am time
I am truth
When twilight falls
among the stars
I sit and tinker
with your moods
I hear your thoughts
I move the tides
I am your God
I am your Muse
I can be fire
I can be war
I am the daughter of Zeus
But tonight
there won’t be light
cause I can’t shine
[Intro/Chorus Two: G-Man]
Whenever you need good lovin
You gotta understand, it takes a man, a man
to keep you satisfied
[Chubb Rock]
Ha ha ha
Now toys are for boys, men don't need Mattel
objects to manipulate and sell
the women or the girls whichever name flip your curl
acts for nonsense delivered by the boys of the world
BUT I!! I.. am.. totally ignorant to that type of pride
Yell, when your groin starts to rebel
Yo L, I told you that we would sell
Oversell to the point now, that the pockets, start to thicken
How in the world did women become chickens
Is it the, Alize or the weed
shredded on the tray, that make the queens flow this way?
Me, I don't need none of that.. type.. drama
No typical style, for the man who rules the genre
The opera, no choir boys, I'll direct your band
Change your tune for the man, and..
[Chorus One: G-Man]
Whenever you need good lovin
You gotta understand, you need a man, a man
who can provide..
[Chorus Two]
[Chubb Rock]
Ha ha ha ha
To redeem, I heard black men, I mean boys
sayin they beat their queen, that type rush
can't paint the scene, dissipates the dream
of black king, black queen, becomin one team
From actress purses, harlequin romance verses
Ghetto curses, ends up in front of nurses
The Yo-G male, the bourgeoise male
The two-car male and the male that needs mail
The woman start to, get empowered by Alice Walker
Waiting to inhale the fumes of the New Yorker
Question - did you trust her, in front of pimps players
and hustlers, does she need a Benz or a duster
End of question, start of answer, contradiction
Exhale, dangle in romance fiction
The love test, is like do you need to understand
Don't cram, you need a real man, and..
[Chorus One] + [Chorus Two]
[Chubb Rock]
Ha ha
While the light gleams in her aspect
Does that mean respect, voiced by Franklin, ignored by the inept
Baggy pants wearer, Million Man March bearer
All those who suffered through the Agent Orange era
Do we really maim the beautiful ones
The sons similak by anger, while the women get shunned
It's above me, another cop out, another rot out
Swapping +Tears For Fears+, while we +Shout+ out
past pain, that reverberates the claim
that the disrespect started when we, were in chains
Could be - but should be, it wouldn't be, if we
real men, scriptured by the zen
And even then, women must know which is which
when their groins itch, for the rich damn
There's a lot to try, to somehow understand
Boys will be boys, but find a real man and..
[Chorus One] + [Chorus Two]
[Chorus One] + [Chorus Two]
[Chubb Rock - over second repeat]
Queens, to chickenheads yo, how the hell did it happen?
Ow! Man.. the man.. ha ha
{Whenever you need good lovin}
PEACE!

Get Mount Eerie - The Moan ringtones
In the night
after the bats come out
I hear you howling.
I know no one and
I hold nothing (now that I know you).
This is how we howl.
In the dark night on the unlit trail there's no way
through but to crawl
Perplexed by the world around me there's no way
through but to surrender my body completely.
to you
to be eaten, to be gnawed,
to fulfill the pregnant night,
and then to be born in the mornings.

I drove up to the city at night and found the place
Where you grew up and then where you stayed
And we walked around and stayed up late under city lights
I spent the night, next to you in the house where you grew up
Next to you I miraculously woke up
In your parents' house I laid in bed with you
I went back to feel alone there
I went back to wipe it clean
I took the lights and radio towers out of my dreams
And we went all the way up to the small town where I'm from
With foggy air and the wind and the mountain top
And we clung to rocks and we looked off and you held my hand
You almost got to start feeling me
I finally felt like I was breathing free
Under swaying trees we fell asleep and we had the same dream
The stars were bright, we dream the same every night
On my island home I spent some time with you
I went back to feel alone there
I went back there by myself
I gave up on everything that we'd felt
We found a precious place in the sand right in the wind
And we laid under a blanket and heard the furious sound
The roar of waves, the pounding surf, two bodies on the earth
It was intense just getting to be there next to you
And you were trying to get me then, and I was happy to let you in
I went back and wished I hadn't
I went back and felt regret
I went to the beach and I just stared west
Every night when the sun went down in the town where we lived
The empty streets were lit by reflected light from a distant sun
Bouncing off a glowing ball of rock and we just laid on the roof
And watched the moon, the moon, the blue light of the moon
We didn't talk and silently we both felt powerful
And, like the moon, my chest was full because we both know
We're just floating in space over molten rock
And we felt safe and we discovered that our skin is soft.
There's nothing left except certain death
And that was comforting at night out under the moon
I went out last night to forget that
I went out and stared it down
But the moon just stared back at me
Ive been
Traveling the land from gravel into sand
Not knowin where Im going never havin any plans
Anything I wanted had to grab it in advance
Abracadabra theres a rabbit in my hands cause
Ive got the magic stick bust the baddest tricks
Fished for a whale brought a ship up out of it
Whats that I just saw? A platypus? Naw.
Maybe its a rat crawling flat on his paws
or a baby dragon just dragon his claws
It doesnt really matter
because its Saturday,
so look thataway
30 clock matinee,
lets collaborate
and Ill pay you back soon
with a crazy rap tune.
But for now were just gazing at the moon
Wander and ponder the pale blue yonder
To infinite and beyond the city
Beyond the city we all want to see serenity
But some times youve gotta walk the fence to see
That all sidewalks must end eventually
I lay still like a sea anemone
Brainwaves chill at the bottom of the sea
Sentient entity
Let the spirit enter me
Patient, pervasive, how I was meant to be
A stone worn smooth by the swift currents of chaos
A place to lay a smooth array of lush moss
Im parlaying on my day off
floating way off on my thought balloons and snacking on macaroons
People say to me you cannot change
People say you always stay the same
If that were true I would leave this place
I would vanish from this place without a trace
I would leave you alone, build yourself a throne
You have said to me you cannot change
Coming from you that sounds very strange
'Cause you have changed in so many ways
That I have trouble recognizing you from day to day
And trouble is your thing, it takes away the sting
Someday these concerns may be your own
When you're lost and far away from home
But you won't have it any other way
Now you'll have to pay
You can crush me
Control me
Harass me
Deny me
Enslave me in chains
But you will never hold me

All been punched by the wounds won't show
Be thankful that i'm taking time
To warn you about a path that could be detrimental
To your heart, pride, love and pain
Deep scars that will never heal again

Don't be no slave to the scoundrel
Use you and expose your inner fears
And then he's done here
Dressed in silk
But tangled in his web
Sucked dry
Don't say your surprised.
He'll consume you
You don't want to play

And had I seen the man inside of me
I might know the one who disagreed
There was a promise that I might return
Told me not to go outside when I wanted to
Told me not to stay out late when I wanted to
Told me not to do a lot of things, but I don't really care
Always did what I wanted to
Never did what I should do
Always did what I wanted to
Never one to listen to you
Told me not to be a man when I wanted to
Told me not to be a punk when I wanted to
Told me not to do a lot of things, but I did them anyway
Always did what I wanted to
Never did what I should do
Always did what I wanted to
Here it comes
Here it comes
A storm again
Like a huge dog
Or a thunder light
He breath only a few times
And a child is dead
Like an omen dream
In a holy land
Unholy land
Believe me
Believe me
It's the omen of the devil
The number of the beast
The number of the man
He comes and comes
Dig my grave
Take life away
And make his world
His own world
Unholy world
He is a devil
A son of Satan
He comes and comes
He comes and goes
Whatever he wants
Believe me
Believe me
It's the omen of the devil
The number of the beast
The number of the man

THE MOON
By T. Diaz and E. Velasco
Stanza 1:
Bad memories I'll never forget
Decisions, I shall always regret
I thought you were just like the rest
But it's all over now,
I should have given my best.
Chorus:
The moon shines like a living hymn
So far away, far away, in the blue
The moon shines like a living hymn
So far away, in the blue.
Coda:
Who has gone
But I'm still looking for another one
You open your eyes, but it's too late
Forgive me, for all of my lies.
PDM Project PDM Deadman PDM Project PDM Deadman PDM Project PDM Deadman PDM Project PDM Deadman PDM Project PDM D
[Chorus:]
So can I get a price check, yeah can I get a price check
On your life and the side effects
Of the money, the greed, the debt, the schemes
Check one two, check two three
Get a mic check, yeah can I get a mic check
Derapht coming live and direct
From the West to the South, to the North to the East
Check one two, check two three
[Verse 1:]
Mmmm man my mother was never made of the money
Iron maiden never running away from her sons and
Daughters, always had food and water
Never knew how she afforded my Jordan's but bought em'
I wore them till water, would leak through the rips
Never looked poor like Oliver Twist, never wanted more
Or knock on your door like I was a Mormon
Swore to never be down or caught in a rip
Ha, when money came it was gone with the wind
On a shopping list longer than the Lord of the Rings
Ha, a sunny day you ain't short of a thing
When ya born into a game holding four of the kings
Yeah believe it, my dad was a musician
But bringing a bass drum to cook up in the kitchen
Wouldn't feed us, with all his get rich scheming
Feeding his deamons, life's a bitch
To sky rocket he forgot all the people in his locket
For a profit, leave another man rotten
Notes in his pocket nailed in his coffin
Cause yesterday's pain ain't forgotton
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
I knew this girl you would sell your soul for
She would control your world like the Cold War
No dole form, sworn from the riches erection
Oh you gotta rex or a Lexus
And this temptress gives you attention
Hence all you have to do is mention the money
It's like sex; you got none, you want it
Now she's all up in your wallet for the money so
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
Was always taught that the root of evil
Is he who steals from the pocket of his people
Eagle eyed survive in the dark
Ravenous sharks, welcome to the business
Oh I live this, knocked off the hinges
Our offspring addicted to syringes of money
Axe wilding civillian children kill for
Some Paris Hilton million dollar money
Some of these kids live the sunniest life
Still running from the law like Bonnie and Clyde
Still deal, still pedaling pills and rock
Steal for what? You got all the dollar bills you want
It makes the world go round, it makes the world go
It makes the girls go down, it makes the girls go
It makes the world go round, it makes the world go
It makes the girls go down
THE HIGHWAYMAN
I was a highwayman
Along the coach roads I did ride
With sword and pistol by my side
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Many a soldier shed his life blood on my blade
The bastards hung me in the spring of '25
But I am still alive
I was a sailor
I was born upon the tide
And with the sea I did abide
I sailed a schooner 'round the horn to Mexico
I went aloft to furl the mainsail in a blow
And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed
But I am living still
I was a dam builder
Across the river deep and wide
Where steel and water did collide
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
But I am still around..
I'll always be around, and around, and around, and around, and around..
I'll fly a starship
Across the Universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain
And I'll be back again

I'm getting tired with the commotion
You keep on talking but nothing happens
You've got big plans for your brilliant future
Where streets are gold paved and you're the man
The Man
You're the man with the plan it's a brilliant scam
You're the king in the ring what a terrible thing
It's a shame that your game didn't work on the kids
Sing it out everyone we won't do what people say
You had it worked out, oh what a workout
You had us singing as you were saying:
This is the future, this is your future!
I love the moon and all his phases
Smiling down on me, no matter what the place is
I find myself stargazing
Mostly finding you amazing by the moon
Oh, no one seems to understand this waning
Condition of our friendship
What's this we are contemplating?
No one ever will
But still I feel a kinship with the moon
Oh, I was lost to lose you
And so my eyes would seem
To be crying, to be lying
I couldn't hide the dream
But somehow I seem fulfilled
And I always will
Because you've got the view
And the clouds don't blind your way
But for all I've seen
This could be our day
I find myself stargazing
Mostly finding you amazing by the moon
And oh, I was lost to lose you
And so my eyes would seem
To be crying, to be lying
I couldn't hide the dream
But somehow I seem fulfilled
And I always will
Because you've got the view
And the clouds don't blind your way
But for all I've seen
This could be our day
I find myself stargazing
Mostly finding you amazing by the moon
I find myself stargazing
[Intro: Diamond D]
Yeah ahh here we go come on
Grand Central, Grand Central
"You ready?"
Grand Central come on ahh, yeah
[Verse 1: Diamond D]
Yeah yeah yeah
I'm like a lightning bolt, I'm fast and hot
Do a show, tell the promoter, pass the nut
And I don't really care if I'm last or not
Overweight brother, still get ass a lot
5-11 dangerous, behind the smirk
In the club in the corner, behind the skirk
On-point got my mind at work
And even at the office I get head, sometimes I work
Flow's corratic charismatic and I don't play those games
I fold you back like the craftmatic
Bowed out but I'm back at it
And you gon' have to live with that, like an asthmatic
Whole crew is plasmatic not the real
Thought you had soldiers but that's not the deal
Try to act brand new once you got the deal
When you see me in the street you oughta stop and kneel
That's right, that's right, Diamond D
[Verse 2: Diamond D]
Yo yo I'm like shaynmoze I'm quick with mines
Get it right, see me in new kicks and shines
Only cop hundreds no licks and dimes
And he still chasin' after old chicks of mine
What's the deal daddy, couldn't keep it real daddy
Yo what happened to you, lookin' ill daddy
Used to eat steaks now it's cornmeal daddy
I don't hold my tongue is how I feel daddy
You look a little baddy your fun's alone
I watch flicks, stretched out in a bungalow
And you found out you hon's a hoe
Livin' of a SS sidechecks cause you son's a slow
I'ma call it how I see it and do the same
You mad at the world, but you to blame
I'm big D I stay true to the game
And next time your mouth full I put two in ya frame
Diamond D, Diamond D
[Verse 3: Diamond D]
Alot of y'all are here today, born tomorrow
Rhymes you spittin' you gon' have to pawn tomorrow
Got you hand-out like you was born to borrow
Starin' at the diamonds on the arrow
L-E-X and I hits the hash
Feds wanna know how he gets the cash
In the club, surrounded by tits and ass
And some wild kids that gon' kick some ass
And you broke kids make me laugh
When I see you in the street you gon' have to break me half
I don't wanna hear about, yo I'm short today
Or who you had to bail out of court today
Cause there's a thin line between love and dough
I always put business above a hoe
Chicks tell me they love the show
And you keep messin' up packages cause you love to blow
Holla at me

I was a highwayman
Along the coachroads I did ride
With sword and pistol at my side
Many a young maid lost their bottles to my trade
Many a soldier shed his life blood on my blade
The basterds hung me in the spring of 25
I am still alive
I was sailor
I was born upon the tide
With the sea I did abide
Sailed my schooner 'round the horn to Mexico
I ran a
When the yards broke out they said I got killed
I am living still
I was a dam builder
across the river deep and wide
Were steel and water did colide
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
I slipped and fell into that wet concrete below
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
But I'm still around
I'll always be around
and around, and around, and around,
And around, and around, and around
I fly a starship
Across the universe divide
When I reach the other side
Find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain
I'll be back again
And again, and again, and again
I see the moon coming down for me
Shines so bright is only sun like could be
It tells me stories about eternity
and so, our reunion is across this,
a great, dry, golden place,
and, seeing that no man saves our souls,
save for those we truly know,
we look, with our mother's eyes
to each other,
because
we have seen that only her tears
Leggo!
