Come down here and lie with me,
Tonight the soil is wet and ready,
I watched the way you danced tonight,
And I'm picturing you as I touch my inside.
Full pink lips and fingertips,
I'm drinking you in little sips,
God I love you, God I love you,
I'm going to do some things I never dared to do.
I'm going to whisper in your ear,
Tell you little things,
Nasty, trashy, dirty love letters,
More creative than the magazines,
I'll breathe until you come,
Kiss you 'til you're done,
Three thousand miles away,
In another state,
Talking on the telephone.
My sugar's down deep in South America,
Singing in Brazil,
Where the women shake their nature,
Greased up with fuck-me-pumps and a postage stamp thong.
Better go back to your room,
And call me on the telephone,
Get on my roller coaster ride,
My tilt-a-whirl,
My tunnel of love will make your heart unfurl.
I'm going to whisper in your ear,
Tell you little things,
Nasty, trashy, dirty love letters,
More creative than the magazines,
I'll breathe until you come,
Kiss you 'til you're done,
Three thousand miles away,
In another state,
Talking on the telephone.
Now that you're gone,
And I'm on the road,
Now that you're gone,
I'll love you from afar.
Get back down upon your knees,
Rip, unzip, undo me please,
My legs are oiled up,
Mamita is down,
I've got my brand new four inch high heels on.
I'm going to whisper in your ear,
Tell you little things,
Nasty, trashy, dirty love letters,
More creative than the magazines,
I'll breathe until you come,
Kiss you 'til you're done,
Three thousand miles away,
In another state,
Talking on the telephone.
Now that you're gone,
And I'm on the road,
Now that you're gone,
I'll love you from afar.
(repeat.)
We were born into this life to cry and yearn and learn and die.
We lose the plot, we play the parts,
But only once we have this heart,
This chance between
2 lifetimes, constellations-sparkling-lectric-energy,
The pull between,
2 lifetimes, take my hand and walk upon the path with me,
Reality, is love.
All we leave behind is lost,
Just things to gather lust and dust.
The house for sale, the grand estates,
The echoes of the somebodies,
Who sought love in
2 lifetimes, constellations-sparkling-lectric-energy,
The pull between,
2 lifetimes, blessed holy moment in the unity,
The most sacred thing,
2 lifetimes, take my hand and walk upon the path with me,
Reality,
2 lifetimes, rivers under bridges past and future meet,
The way between.
2 lifetimes.
I'm black on blacker velvet,
Milk skin and veins,
Like some El Greco painting,
So full of pain.
So full of longing for light of day.
I thought I knew who I was in the world.
But here I am twice blind at being born,
Crawling to my buried voice, within.
And I've forgotten who I used to be.
And I've forgotten the woman in red,
Living her dream.
And I've forgotten the courage I used to be.
Happiness is overrated,
It never lasts.
Skating the surface of oceanic depths.
Oh may the fruit of my life be meaning.
So please forgive me all my seriousness,
My so-called spirituality,
I'm just a mess.
I'm tears and anxiety,
But I'm unafraid to See.
And I've forgotten who I used to be,
The leader in her glory shining, divining.
And I've forgotten, the courage I used to be,
The middle passage is so damned humbling, persona crumbling,
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, and I try.
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know,
And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, and I try.
Like some El Greco painting,
No sun or sky.
No lantern, no candle needed to light,
The holy radiance behind the eyes.
And I've forgotten who I used to be.
And I've forgotten the woman in red, living her dream.
And I've forgotten the courage I used to be.
Walking the mountain is easy for the medicine
Man who follows makes sure the Indian
Never returns
His revenge, his revenge
Rising
His revenge, his revenge
Rising
White is the man with the pen who's writing the story
of life
Our revenge, our revenge, rising
Our revenge, our revenge, rising
Our revenge, our revenge, rising
Our revenge, our revenge, rising, rising, rising
Oh John, oh John, oh John
Never lose the memory of April twenty-six
Your hands designed my body
You autographed my hip
I lost all my worry
I lost all sense of time
My fears evaporated
When you held me in your oh my god and
Oh John, in a New York hotel room
In a truck off the back road
Southwest of Chicago
Oh John, in a New England fairground
on a lawn in the backyard
in a town in Colorado, oh
Oh John, oh John, oh John
Saturate my consciousness with sweet elixir wine
Your body is the chalice your spirit is the vine
I lose all my worry
I lose all sense of time
My fears evaporate
When you hold me in your oh my god and
Chorus
And everytime I see the ocean you're there
And everytime I see the forest you're on my mind
In my life, flooding me with memories like
Litte boy, tries to hide,
From the fire in his backyard.
Burning cross, white cloth,
It's the second time this year.
Hitler's brothers are still alive,
They're wearing everyday disguises.
A woman runs, for asylum,
She's the only one of her kind in this neighborhood.
She knows who they were,
They don't believe a word,
The cops just turn their heads to protect their friends.
Hitler's brothers are still alive,
Their army seems to grow in size,
Hitler's brothers are on the rise,
They're wearing everyday disguises.
...In camouflage or business suits.
Another man, bound and gagged,
Tied upon the railroad tracks.
At nine p.m. the B&M; (Boston & Maine)
Rolled across his yellow skin
Hitler's brothers are still alive,
Their army seems to grow in size,
Hitler's brothers are on the rise,
They're wearing everyday disguises.
In camouflage or business suits,
Checkered aprons, combat boots,
Time to let those feelings go,
Somtimes I'm too bold for my own good
I go out swinging hard and fast
This world is beating me broken
I need a home to rest
Too quick in the first round
Too slow in the second
Now I'm here in the third
And I need your attention.
I wanna be safe in your arms.
I wanna be safe in your arms.
I wanna be safe in your arms.
Safe in our home.
Safe in our land.
Safe in our world.
Safe in your arms.
It don't matter how strong I think I am.
I always need another heart.
To bind me in the moment.
To help me see myself.
Alive in the fourth round.
Collapsed in the fifth.
Now I'm here in the sixth
And I need your belief.
I wanna be safe in your arms.
I wanna be safe in your arms.
I wanna be safe in your arms.
Safe in our home.
Safe in our land.
Safe in our world.

Crimson cardinal sees his life,
Into the glass he fl ies.
The perfect partner he does spy,
A moment's glance of eyes.
Refl ections of a future love,
Feel the pull of fate.
The perfect love turned out to be,
Himself in haste and vain,
Passion's fl ash of red,
Bloodied on the pane.
In your eyes I fi nd,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight.
Blinded by surprise,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight.
All the qualities I loved,
Now bite me black and blue.
All the joys you loved in me,
Come biting back at you.
So innocent we found ourselves,
Becoming what we feared.
'Til death do us our shadows part,
Make room through all these tears,
'Til something new appears,
Reborn in this nadir.
In your eyes I fi nd,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight.
Blinded by surprise,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight.
I won't find happiness, looking outside myself.
I'll find my happiness, looking inside myself.

Spin the globe, stop and start.
Come to a place that's torn apart.
Here's a secret, it's my heart,
Oh well,
It's only...
Broken shutters, whistling wind,
Vultures circling overhead,
Tumbleweeds fl y,
Dust in my eyes,
Guess it's not my feelings crying.
Peeling paint on empty homes,
Where people lived in this town long ago,
Packed their bags, nailed down the door,
To Lonelytown.
Oh I once had a love of my life,
The sun of my soul.
But I took him for granted,
Ignored all the signs,
And now it's just memories and passing ghosts.
Spiderwebs and weeds waist high,
Abandoned schoolyards and rusted wire.
Looking for love,
Looking for life,
In Lonelytown.
If you're lucky with a love of your own.
Remember this in a nutshell I've told:
Hold them close and don't let go,
And cherish forevermore.
Or you will live in Lonelytown.
Paula Cole/Mark Goldenberg
I wanna kiss you. I wanna kiss you.
I wanna stop the conversation,
I wanna kiss you.
Oh, lie beside me now,
Funny papers, morning sunlight streams,
Oh fantasize me now,
I'll kiss your neck and make your toast and tea,
Oh won't you marry me?
I see a little church atop a hill.
But in the meantime I wanna lose my shame.
I wanna kiss you. I wanna kiss you.
I wanna stop the conversation.
I wanna kiss you. I wanna feel you.
I wanna feel you.
I wanna lean my body into yours.
I wanna feel you.
Oh believe me now,
Walk with me upon the path I see.
Oh a cozy home,
Nestled in an English garden scene.
You will write your books,
And I will paint my paintings by the sea.
But now I'll be Lolita if you please.
I wanna kiss you. I wanna kiss you.
I wanna stop the conversation.
I wanna kiss you. I wanna hold you.
I wanna hold you.
I wanna wrestle you down to the ground.
Oh...
I wanna kiss you. I wanna kiss you.
I wanna stop the conversation.
I wanna kiss you. I wanna have you.
I wanna have you.
I wanna be a possessive girl.
I wanna have you.
Hold you, hurt you, love you, need you, love you, wrestle you down to the ground,
Bite you, love you, hold you,
Why do you think she wears those black boots...
Why do you think she dyes her hair black...
She's awfully insecureShe's trying to be coolShe's hoping to be more in those,black boots.
Why do I think I wear those black boots...Why do I wear three pairs of black boots...
I am not the person who is singing
I am the silent one inside
I am not the one who laughs at people's jokes
I just pacify their egos
I am not my house, my car, my songs
They are only just stops along my way
I am like the winter
I'm a dark cold female
With a golden ring of wisdom in my cave
CHORUS:
And it is me who is my enemy
Me who beats me up
Me who makes the monsters
Me who strips my confidence
I am carrying my voice
I am carrying my heart
I am carrying my rhythm
I am carrying my prayers
But you can't kill my spirit
It's soaring and it's strong
Like a mountain
I'll go on and on
But when my wings are folded
The brightly colored moth
Blends into the dirt into the ground
Chorus
And it's me who's too weak
And it's me who's too shy
To ask for the thing i love
And it's me who's too weak
And it's me who's too shy
To ask for the thing i love
That I love (6 times)
I am walking on the bridge
I am over the water
And I'm scared as hell
But I know there's something better
Yes I know there's something
Yes I know, i know, yes i know
That I love (5 times overlapping chorus)
But it's me
And it's me
But it's me (4 times)

ROAD TO DEAD
Dead dead dead dead walking down to the road to dead
Welcome to the church of me
Where they stand in a line in need
Of water from my eyes
And a song for comfort
You say Jesus Christ
Well, I feel like him
I feel one, two, three
Nails through me and
Four through the heart
CHORUS:
You walk the road to resurrection
And I walk the road to dead
And I never knew my devotion
But I walk the road to dead
I held you
And wrapped you in the heat of my hand
And prayed for my soul
Now I want you back
As you walk away from my love
You need to need
Strength is threatenous
I filled you will faith
And that filled me with pain
What the hell am I doing
Falling in love with pain again and again and again and again
Chorus
Idiot kitty to New York City
Living in a kennel and lookin' big and pretty
Meet the munch for business lunch
But your feet bleed under the table
But Suwannee Jo, you're dark and slow
You dance with a broom and you're filled with ghosts
You smell like liquor and you're high as a hawk
You laugh to yourself but you talk like a rock
Scaredy Kate, back in the Haight
Doesn't answer the phone and eats like a tapeworm
She met Mr.Mike in'89
But she's a hundred pounds heavier and won't go outside
But Suwannee Jo, You're dark and slow
You dance with a broom and you're filled with ghosts
Suwannee Jo, strange beautiful gold,
You can take a woman's husband
but you don't want to marry him
You just want to hold him
Nora Mable, behind your table
Expensive knowledge from ten years of college
But when it comes to livin', the book isn't written
Your brain's under "M" in the library missing
Suwannee Jo, you follow your soul
Here I am, a black-eyed bird, remaining silent.
I simply watch, your little life from high above.
Wanting to call you, wanting to sing,
Inside your ears and lips and eyes and soul,
I dig my grave, behind the gates of Babylon.
There's a Garden of Eden
In your distant heart,
Garden of Eden
In your earthly arms.
Here I stand, a serpent queen of the garden.
I'm beckoning, but you ignore my siren song.
Oh I long, to touch you, to step inside your sacred gate.
I'll dig my grave in the middle of golden bible snake.
There's a Garden of Eden
In your distant heart,
Garden of Eden
In your earthly arms.
The black-eyed bird is dying,
The queen is dead,
She'll never step foot in Eden.
There's a Garden of Eden
In your distant heart,
Garden of Eden

Pulling on the apron strings looking upStanding on the chair to be grown upI feel so little, I need my pillowI hate the time, I hate the clockI want to be a dog or I want to be a rock
Sunday's pancakes Miss Mary MackColor Polariods show my heart attackIn my second-hand pants and dusty shoesThe day that the playground laughed at my shoesIt's my birthday next week and what I want pleaseIs to turn on the heat so the fish won't freezeThe fish in the tank froze and died last weekOh I want to be a dog or I want to be a leaf
Quarry miners, fishermenIn my town of BethlehemPicket fences, church at tenNo star above my Bethlehem
Now I'm only 16 and I think I have an ulcerI'm hiding my sex behind a dirty sweatshirtI've lost five pounds these past few daysTrying to be class president and get straight A's, well,Who gives a shit about that anyway?I want to be a dog or a lump of clay
Chorus
Still I'm tired of standing stillTired of living - stillEveryday I dream of leaving
Everybody's talking about Becky's bustThe boys on the basketball team just fuckThe same ten girls, who don't know who they areThey're looking for some comfort in the back of a carThe six-packs of beer, the locker room jeersI don't want to be me, I don't want to be here
Chorus
Red brick schoolhouse, dead end dirt roads, daffodilsNo star above my Bethlehem
I wanna be somebody...
I wanna make a difference...
Little boy caught in a drive-by
Witnessed the killer who made his daddy die
And 'cause he identified and signed the dotted line,
He could feel it in his stomach, he signed away his life
Little boy who once was the leader of his class
The little source of joy, always neatly dressed
Now would hang his head and be left crying at his desk,
Was found with his mother, lying in her lap
With two bullets in his chest
And, oh my God, what is this madness?
I will not let it kill my gladness
And, oh my God, what is this sadness?
My joy inside will send this message
I wanna be somebody
I wanna make a difference,
For we all are children of the Mother
I wanna be somebody
I wanna make a difference,
For we all are children of the Father
Outspoken man, leading sisters and brothers,
Picked himself up from hustling, drugs and gutters
Doing time on the inside, he found a higher power
Now, back with a mission to help us help each other
Respected from bourgeoisie to homeless in the street
From universities, Africa, the Middle East
And throught the threats of death he spoke truth and set men free
But the power of the truth made enemies of the weak
He was killed by his own people
And, oh my God, what is this madness?
I will not let it kill my gladness
And, oh my God, what is this sadness?
My joy inside will send this message
I wanna be somebody
I wanna make a difference,
For we all are children of the Mother
I wanna be somebody
I wanna make a difference,
For we all are children
Ignite This Fire inside, this light that is the Truth
Shake off the system's chains, no longer be their fool
In the face of brutality, show the other cheek
Trigger-happy policing will never kill our dignity
And, oh my God, what is this madness?
I will not let it kill my gladness
And, oh my God, what is this sadness?
My joy inside will send this message
I wanna be somebody
I wanna make a difference,
For we all are children of the Mother
I wanna be somebody
I wanna make a difference,
For we all are children of the Father

Open your heart and See
Looking backward
No one after
Last November
Seems so long, long, long ago
I was happy
With what we had
But it was little
and now it's gone, gone, gone, gone
I used to think that nothing else could ever be
I wanted to hold on forever
Nothing can explain the changes that I'm feeling
I can't believe, I can't believe what happened
Whoa whoa
I was holding on far too long
But I needed that in my weakest moment
No one closer
No one dearer knows me better
and held me so long, long, long, long
We used to sit we used to plan our lives together
We counted on the future
Oh held my hand and held me up to stand it better
I can't believe, I can't believe what happened
Whoa whoa
I feel stronger now that time has slipped me back
I'm alone as well as you
What a long time we have spent together
I hope I can pick myself up and love again
Oh no
I remember the pain in my mother's eyes,
I remember the pain of her compromise years ago.
I always wanted to help to make it go away,
I didn't know it was her freedom that she needed so.
And she said to me, she said to me:
He hitch-hiked to Maine,
We went cross-country.
I had to leave my home,
I had to raise a family
We did the best we could being so young,
We tried to hard to build a happy home.
I never knew what to say to anybody,
I didn't know what to do, I was far too young.
But everybody could feel the suffocation,
Underneath for facade of a happy home.
And she said to me, she said to me:
Chorus
Home sweet freedom, flowing in my eyes, Home sweet freedom,
flowing in my mind.
Sacrificed her dreams to motherhood,
Waiting and waiting to be understood fully.
Sacrificed her years to the family,
Waiting and waiting to be heard finally.

Lord make me a Skilsaw to cut through these chains

Lord give me the clarity to see through this smoke,
And salvage the woman comin' down.
Lord make me an arrow to pierce through the lies
(comin' down, comin' down),
Lord make me a lens to better see my life
(comin' down, comin' down),
Lord make me an instrument to sing away the pain,
This rushing river, comin' down.
I'm free, here in the mountains of peace may I be.
I see the greatness above and the smallness of me.
Lord I'm mistaken in the choices that I made
(comin' down, comin' down)
I made me a prison that should've been a man
(comin' down, comin' down)
Lord help me discover the courage to Be,
To handle these changes comin' down.
I'm free here in the mountains of peace may I be,
I see the greatness above and the smallness of me.
So free, here in garden awake consciously,
I see the greatness within; the greatness in me.
Lord I'm your instrument, I'll shoulder the weight,
Of feeling emotions in a deeper shade.
I'll be the one who puts them to song,

Look at how futile this is
I'm so weak
So fragile
So torn
Going around and around
Going inside
To the circle
To the ladder
To the sky
I am climbing the ladder of urgency
Climbing a ladder of hope
Climbing a ladder of my emotions
Climbing a ladder of unraveling hope
You see what you want to see
But i'm not
What you wanted
No I'm not
I am only one thing
One thing I see
One thing I feel
I am climbing the ladder of urgency
Climbing a ladder of hope
Climbing a ladder of my emotions
Climbing a ladder of unraveling hope

One thing I feel
Didn't your mama tell you how to behave, girl?
Didn't your daddy tell you not to wear that little thing?
Been told you never get something for nothing
My stepfather Dickie say I just might get hit if I don't give
The girls all whisper 'hind my back
They try to break me with cruel attacks
The boys they want only one thing
And so I give it, don't complain
Daddy's gone, mama lost her job
Our house ain't a home no more
Still my faith's unshaken in God
I feel so lonely for hope and company
I don't take much and I give everything for free
(So, don't you want me?)
The girls all whisper 'hind by back
My baby brother's smoking crack
The boys they want only one thing
My body is my [incomprehensible]
Daddy's gone, mama lost her job
Our house ain't a home no more
Still my faith's unshaken in God
I dream I get a record deal
I'll buy a way out of here
Or maybe a new Lexus jeep
Or just a friend, am I dreamin'? Am I dreamin'?
There's Mr. Roberts, Juan and Paul
All waiting for me down the hall
But then tomorrow they don't call
Still the moment's better than none at all
Daddy's gone
(My name is La Tonya)
Mama lost her job
(I'll be sixteen in August)
Our house ain't a home no more
(I am a sophomore)
Since mama broke her soul
(I like to sing in chorus)
Daddy's gone
(My name is La Tonya)
Mama lost her job
(I'll be sixteen in August)
Our house ain't a home no more
(I am a sophomore)
Still my faith's unshaken
Lord won't you please save me?
Is this the new slavery?
Here on the ghetto pavement?
But I believe in you baby
Walking the mountain is easy for the medicine
Man who follows make sure the indian never returns
His revenge

Fighting the front line is honor for the pharaoh
In egypt erases the queen the truth the history of her
Her revenge

Reading the pages of history its not black and
White is the man with the pen who's writing the story of life

Abandoned schoolyards and rusted wire.
Looking for love,
Looking for life,
In Lonelytown.
If you're lucky with a love of your own.
Remember this in a nutshell I've told:
Hold them close and don't let go,
And cherish forevermore.
That quiet voice inside of my soul
It's rising up again
Oh I know it's the time again, life is short
Gotta grab the wheel of life.
Indecision, should-haves, could-haves
will only rip my joy away.
This inner cross-roads may define me,
but it's the only way.
'Cause it's my life
And I am free
To live my life
The way I feel
For all the people who hear my song
Why not take a chance?
By keeping the child alive in our heart
There's truth and meaning there.
Trusting beauty
Truth, perfection
I'll never lead my light astray
Listen to my intuition
Gather up my faith
'Cause it's my life
And I am free
To live my life
The way I feel
Deep inside I know I can,
Deep inside I'm beautiful,
Tell myself I won't give up,
Tell myself have courage now,
Willingness and openness
Step by step and day by day,
Over time a thousand fields,
Will have passed beneath my feet.
Where's my white knight,
My prince to save the day?
I've always paved my own way.
I'm all alone, Bringing home the bread,
Raising the kid, fi xing the bed.
I wanna be a star, Like Marilyn Monroe,
A Cinderella Fantasy, A naive Clara Bow,
A princess and the pea, I try to play the part,
Surrounded by society, Hypnotizing me,
It's hard to be soft.
I'm all alone, At the mommy and me,
Wishing for some company,
I'm the only one, Keeping the home alive,
Making the meals, She's 9 to 5.
I wanna have a star, Like Marilyn Monroe,
A Cinderella fantasy, A naive Clara Bow,
A princess and the pea, We try to play the part,
Surrounded by society, Hypnotizing me,
It's hard to be soft.
Out there on my own,
Successful in the world,
It works to be so strong,
But when I come home,
My pendulum's outta control,
I'm passive or I let my fi re blow.
In a man's world it's hard to be soft.
I don't want to be a star,
Like Marilyn Monroe,
A Cinderella fantasy,
A naive Clara Bow,
A princess and the pea,
I try to play the part,
Surrounded by society,
Hypnotizing me to be,
Home-baked apple pie,
A centerfold in heels,
A Betty Crocker Pamela,
Complacent to believe,
In my Mr. Right,
A pipe and slippers guy,
A ready, steady, rock-hard Eddy,
Oops not always, guess it's only,
Until the philosophy which holds one race
Superior and another inferior
Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned
Everywhere is war, me say war
That until there is no longer first class
And second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes
Me say war
That until the basic human rights are equally
Guaranteed to all, without regard to race
Dis a war
That until that day
The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
To be pursued, but never attained
Now everywhere is war, war
And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes
That hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique,
South Africa sub-human bondage
Have been toppled, utterly destroyed
Well, everywhere is war, me say war
War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
War, war, rumours of war
And until that day, the African continent
Will not know peace, we Africans will fight
We find it necessary and we know we shall win
As we are confident in the victory
Of good over evil, good over evil, good over evil
She was on the floor, her face was in her mother's arms.
She had said that she'd been out late with the boys.
Just another evening, like every other evening
Everything is all the same it seems.
Danny always called her on the phone for no special reason,
apparently,
He could never tell her what it was, he suffered silently,
quitely.
Just another evening, but his hands just couldn't be still,
He can't control it and he cannot tell her why,
Feel the beaded knuckles, feel the snap inside,
See the rush of terror in her eye,
She can't feel it
She can't feel it
She can't feel anything anymore
He tried painfully, he begged for her forgiveness on his knees,
She gave gracefully, but inside,
but inside,
Watch the woman's hands as she cultivates the land
as she plants the seed
as she's on her knees
Watch her fingers smile as she holds the little child
as she holds him
as she hold him
Whoah, Whoah
Watch the woman's hands as she holds the children back
from the danger, from the danger
Watch how they fight to keep the family tight
together, together
Chorus:
Whoah, Whoah,
Oh we need her, oh we need her, oh we need her, oh we need her
Oh we need her, oh we need her, oh we need her, oh oh we need her
Whoah
Watch the woman's hand as she talks to the man
as he talks down to her
as he tells her
he doesnt understand he doesnt the fisted hands
clenching tightly, angrily
Chorus:
Whoah, Whoah
Oh we need her, oh we need her, oh we need her, oh we need her
Oh we need her, oh we need her, oh we need her, oh we need,
oh oh we need her
As soon as you're born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
There's room at the top they are telling you still
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
If you want to be like the folks on the hill
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
Crimson cardinal sees his life,
Into the glass he fl ies.
The perfect partner he does spy,
A moments glance of eyes.
Refl ections of a future love,
Feel the pull of fate.
The perfect love turned out to be,
Himself in haste and vain,
Passions fl ash of red,
Bloodied on the pane.
In your eyes I fi nd,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight.
Blinded by surprise,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight.
All the qualities I loved,
Now bite me black and blue.
All the joys you loved in me,
Come biting back at you.
So innocent we found ourselves,
Becoming what we feared.
Til death do us our shadows part,
Make room through all these tears,
Til something new appears,
Reborn in this nadir.
In your eyes I fi nd,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight.
Blinded by surprise,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight,
You are my lovelight.
I wont fi nd happiness, looking outside myself.
Lost in another world, oh Saturn, Saturn Girl
Oh, lost in another world, oh Saturn, Saturn Girl
Far away, to an infinite world I escape
I'm clear and calm, I'm unafraid
Sunless days, in my sheltered Milky Way
In Saturn's rings I feel no pain
In my heart, in my head
Oh, the Saturn Girl has always bled
No you're not, from this world
Saturn Girl
I can't explain, why I don't belong to the same world
I don't fit in, and I will not stay
I want to fly, oh I long for my violet skies
My astral nights, my peace of mind
Oh, in my heart, in my head
Oh, the Saturn Girl has always bled
No you're not, from this world
Saturn Girl
Lost in another world, oh Saturn, Saturn Girl
Oh, lost in another world, oh Saturn, Saturn Girl
Saturn Girl, I'd rather be lost in my empyrean world
Than be down on earth
In my heart, in my head
Oh, the Saturn Girl has always bled
No you're not, from this world
Saturn Girl
Everybody tries to break my dreams to break through
They don't believe in my words, they don't believe in my world
Oh, you're lost in another world
Oh, you're lost you Saturn Girl, oh you crazy girl, oh you Saturn Girl
In my heart, in my head
Oh, the Saturn Girl has always bled
No you're not, from this world
Saturn Girl
In my heart, in my head
Oh, the Saturn Girl has always bled
No you're not, from this world
Saturn Girl
Lost in another world, oh Saturn, Saturn Girl
I am not the person who is singing,
I am the silent one inside.
I am not the one who laughs at people's jokes,
I just pacify their egos.
I am not my house, my car or my songs,
They are only stops along my way.
I am like the winter, I'm a dark cold female,
With a golden ring of wisdom in my cave.
(chorus)
And it's me who is my enemy
Me who beats me up
Me who makes the monsters
Me who strips my confidence
I am carrying my voice
I am carrying a heart.
I am carrying the rhythm
I am carrying my prayers,
but you can kill my spirit, it's old and it is strong,
And like a mountain I'll go on and on.
But when my wings are folded,
The brightly colored moth blends into the dirt into the ground
And it's me who is my enemy.
Me who beats me up.
Me who makes the monsters.
Me who strips my confidence.
And it's me who's too weak,
And it's me who's too shy to ask for the thing I love.
And it's me who's too weak,
And it's me who's too shy to ask for the thing I love.
But I love
I am walking on the bridge,
I am over the water,
And I'm scared as hell
But I know there's something better.
(Yes I know, yes I know, yes I know, yes I know)
so call me a bitch in heat and
i call you a liar
and we'll throw stones until we're dead
there you go again you cut me off from talkin'
you bask in the glory
the center of the circle
all the friends think you're a fuckin' comedian
so kind and generous
but i am suffering
away from here
i wanna be
away from here
away from here
away from every little thing I have
every little thing
i used to love your every little every little thing
now you call me a bitch in heat and
i call you a liar
and we'll throw stones until we're dead
you're the puppeteer and i'm the puppet
you manipulate me with your real catholic shit
everytime i try to talk it through
you turn it around and make us out like david and goliath
away from here
i wanna be
away from here
away from here
away from every little thing I have
every little thing
i used to love your every little every little thing
now you call me a bitch in heat and
i call you a liar
and we'll throw stones until we're dead
your arms beneath me
you're lying inside me
i used to love your every little every little thing
your eyes grews stars
your hand in my purse
and now i hate your every little everything
oh mama
i didn't know life was this hard
oh mama
my innocence has been tarred
my inner vision, dulled and darkened
i give myself away to you
i felt my sorrow humble me
and throw my crown upon the ground
it's you i hope for
and us i pray for
and me that i believed that was wrong
and now my anger is my best friend
be careful i may bite your head off
liar
so call me a bitch in heat and
i'll call you a liar
and we'll throw stones until we're dead
so call me a bitch in heat and
i'll call you a mother fucker
Crumbling down, My life,
All these lies, I put on a pedestal.
Walking around, Broken down shoes,
Broken down vows, My same broken heart.
And I know the silence is good for me. And I know how to be alone.
And I know I'm trying to wait this out. And I know, I gotta go.
Then our eyes meet 'cross the room, And I feel like I'm fl ying outside myself.
I can't catch my breath, I just feel something switch,
Can't explain myself.
I thought I was happy, Until I met you.
I see a house, There's a child,
Alone on a swing, Where's his mother been?
She's in the back, Hiding her tears,
Making it work, The way it's worked for a thousand years.
I don't know why I walk through the same charade,
I don't know what I'm feeling right now,
But I know I'm tired of the same old tears,
And I know something's gotta change.
Then our eyes meet cross the room, And I feel like I'm fl ying outside myself.
I can't catch my breath, I just feel something switch,
Can't explain myself.
I don't know why I walk through the same charade,
I don't know what I'm feeling right now,
But I know I'm tired of the same old tears,
But I know I gotta go.
Then our eyes meet cross the room, And I feel like I'm fl ying outside myself.
I can't catch my breath, I just feel something switch,
Can't explain myself.
We meet cross the room, And I feel like I'm fl ying outside myself.
I can't catch my breath, I just feel something switch,
Can't explain myself.
I thought I was happy, Until I met you.
Until I met you. (Something inside of me tells me to change my life)
Until I met you. (Something inside of me tells me to fl y)
A tree it grows in Brooklyn, the force it grows in me,
I'm cracking up the concrete of a life that nearly killed me.
A woman's just a man away from Welfare so they say,
And Lord I know it to be true, when you're married by the State.
Yes I'm waiting on a miracle, yes I'm waiting for the sun to shine in,
Waiting, on a miracle, yes I'm waiting for the sun to shine in.
No restraining order, what a fool was she,
A trusting small-town innocent in love with mystery,
You can take the boy from the ghetto, but the ghetto from the boy?
I guess he won his fool's gold from another woman's life.
Yes I'm waiting on a miracle, yes I'm waiting for the sun to shine in,
Waiting, on a miracle, yes I'm waiting for the sun to shine in.
Thank you for the laughter, thank you for these tears,
Thank you for my daughter and teaching me no fear,
The money never mattered, just to pay to get us free,
I have my girl, now leave my world, good luck back on the street.
Yes I'm waiting on a miracle, yes I'm waiting for the sun to shine in,
Tell me how the story will unfold
I know you see everything
Tell me all about the torch and scroll
I know you know everything
Chorus:
So why do you come to me?
Why when I'm sleeping?
Why am I the only one who knows you're there
Why?
Why?
My dear my dear gertrude
My dear
Lonely soul
My dear
My dear gerturde
My dear, my, my
Tell me all about your history
Tell me all about your pains
Try to contact all your lost loved ones
Try to speak to them through me
Chorus:
So why do you come to me?
Why when I'm sleeping?
Why am I the only one who knows you're there
Why?
Why?
My dear my dear gertrude
My dear
Lonely soul
My dear
My dear gerturde
My dear, my, my
My dear
My dear
My dear
My dear
I feel so lonely in my body
I can sympathize your pain
But this secret is too much for me to hold
No no one will believe
Chorus:
So why do you come to me?
Why when I'm sleeping?
Why am I the only one who knows you're there
Why?
Why?
My dear my dear gertrude
My dear
Lonely soul
My dear
My dear gerturde
My dear, my, my
My dear my dear gertrude
My dear lonely soul
My dear my dear gerture my dear my my
My oh mama oh mama oh mama oh
(Holding on, holding on, holding on...)
Here in this vacancy,
Where we existed,
I carry on in life like some puppet acting her part.
The very core of me,
An empty garden.
The tree of life once fl owered her arms to open sky.
An angel guided you home, now I'm alone, now I'm alone,
The living on's the hardest part,
And the days are endless hours.
This house is silent now.
The bed's much bigger.
The television's constant to keep me company.
The Maker guided you home,
Now I'm alone, now I'm alone,
The living on's the hardest part,
And the days are endless hours,
But then at night when my soul is in fl ight,
And together we meet in the galaxy,
Love know no lease,
We're here in the meadow of grace and peace,
We meet again in our dreams.
So if you hear me now,
'Cause I know you're out there.
Wait for my homecoming when I cross the other side.
A little bird fl ew you home,
Now I'm alone, now I'm alone,
The living on's the hardest part,
And the days are endless hours.
But then at night when my soul is in fl ight,
And together we meet in the galaxy,
Love knows no lease,
We're here in the meadow; our secret place.
We meet again in our dreams.
In our dreams.
In our dreams.
Des yeux qui font baiser les miens, un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche
Voilà le portrait, sans retouche, de l'homme auquel j'appartiens
Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas
Je vois la vie en rose
Il me dit des mots d'amour
Ces mots de tous les jours
Si ça m'fait quelque chose
Il est entre dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C'est lui pour moi, moi pour lui dans la vie
Il me l'a dit l'a jure pour la vie
Et dès que je l'aperçois
Alors je sens en moi mon coeur qui bat
Des nuits d'amour ne plus en finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Des ennuis, des chagrins, des phrases
Heureux, heureux à en mourir
Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas
Je vois la vie en rose
Il me dit des mots d'amour
Des mots de tous les jours
Et ca m'fait quelque chose
Il est entre dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
Je reconnais la cause
C'est toi pour moi, moi pour toi dans la vie
Tu me l'as dit t'l'as jure pour la vie
Et des que je t'apercois
It all started nine years ago
You sat to my left back in school
The future showed itself to me
The God in you, the God in me
Stood together like two trees
I was so shy to inquire
If you would like tea sometime
But then in my Mercury
Hand on hand, hand on knee, mercy, mercy, mercy me
Hand on hand, hand on knee, mercy, mercy
And I believe in love to be the center of all things
And I believe in love to be the way
And I believe in love to be the center of all things
And I believe in love to be the way
To find our inner light
I saw a vision where we
Were opening presents Christmas Day
But we were not all alone
The wedding was shotgun
We had a daughter and a son
So how cruel to realize
You had a woman all the time, umm hmm
My love burns bright as the sun
The clouds may come, the clouds may go
And I'll still be here at your door
The clouds may come, the clouds may go
And I'll still be here
And I believe in love to be the center of all things
And I believe in love to be the way
And I believe in love to be the center of all things
And I believe in love to be the way
Thank you for waiting through my lovers
Knowing we could come home to each other
Yes, I have waited through these winters
My true love was waiting here, yeah
And I believe in love to be the center of all things
And I believe in love to be the way
And I believe in love to be the center of all things
And I believe in love to be the way
And I believe in love, love, love, I believe in love
I'll go on lovin', I'll go on lovin', I believe in love
Love yes love, love, I believe in love
And I believe in love, love, love, yeah yeah
I nearly died I suicided softly
I saw her shadow through the cafe window
I watched you lean across the table
I watched you whisper in her ear
And she is your holy Mary
And I am so ordinary
And you can use me if you want to
I know you need me just like an old soft shoe
She looks like me but a bit prettier
She's a skater and a ballet dancer
I saw her on your motorcycle
In the seat I thought was meant for me
Chorus
And when your mother came to Boston you disappeared
And then I saw you three together
I guess she makes the best impression
With her charming femininity...
Chorus
Oh but I am the one you will call when alone
And I am the one who will give when she's gone
And so I give
So I give
I tell myself that love is truly giving
Somehow I justify this
Hoping you will understand me
Hoping you will love me back
And she is your holy Mary
And I am so ordinary
And she is your Queen Cleopatra
And I'm just your morning after
And she is your Star Spangled Banner
And I am just Frere Jaque
And you can lose me if you want to
Chorus:
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, I'm beggin' of you, please don't take my man
Your beauty is beyond compare, with flamin' locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring, your voice is soft like summer rain
And I can not compete with you, Jolene
He talks about you in his sleep, and there's nothing I can do to keep
From cryin' when he calls your name, Jolene
And I can easily understand how you can easy take my man
But you don't know what it means to me, Jolene
chorus
Now, you could have your choice of men, but I could never love again
He's the only one for me, Jolene
I had to have this talk with you, my happiness depends on you
Whatever you decide to do, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, I'm beggin' of you, please don't take my man
where do i put this fire
this bright red feeling
this tiger lily down my mouth
he wants to grow to twenty feet tall
CHORUS:
i've left bethlehem
i feel free
i've left the girl i was supposed to be and
someday i'll be born
i'm so tired of being shy
i'm not that girl anymore
i'm not that straight A anymore
i want to sit with my legs wide open and
laugh so loud that the whole damn restaurant
will turn and look at me and say
look at the tiger jumping out of her mouth
chorus
no more sex-starved teachers
trying to touch my ass
i can finally be a teenager at age twenty-six
go to hell lions, tigers, and bears
i'm not afraid of you anymore
and my fear broke apart like fifty balloons
and i'm thrown around the room like party confetti now
chorus
someday i'll be born
someday someday someday i'll be born
someday someday someday i'll be born
I lost but I did not lose the lesson,
I was so lonely there at the top of my mountain,
And I can be the Joan of Arc of courage,
But with one touch of lust I crumbled in his arms.
Maybe I don't understand what it takes to make it last,
It doesn't help when little girls are pushed too far and too damned fast,
They grow up to be the woman dancing in a cage,
And learning too late the acquiescing turns to rage.
There's somethin' I've gotta say,
Somethin' I've gotta say,
Somethin' I've gotta say,
Somethin' I've gotta say.
What I love is also what I hate.
This music kills me then forces me to stand up straight,
So don't confuse positivity for naïveté,
The great ones walked through hell to become that way.
And oh my God the tests get harder,
My love and I are torn apart,
Why do I feel I must choose between my music and my heart,
Futile pressure running on this hamster wheel,
I will walk down the path of motherhood I feel.
There's somethin' I've gotta say,
Somethin' I've gotta say,
Somethin' I've gotta say, say, say, say.
All my life I strove to be the first one in my family to achieve,
Grab a hold of that glass ring (?)
When money's so empty, the road will leave you lonelier.
And I'm lonely, I'm sold (?)
I learned the lesson laid in life then love forgive me. (?)
There's somethin' I've gotta say,
There's somethin' I've gotta say,
There's somethin' I've gotta say,
In my life, in my time, I'm talking about it.
There's somethin' I've gotta say, say, say, say.
(Didn't your Mama tell you how to behave,girl?
Didn't your Daddy tell you not to wear that little thing?)
Been told you never get something for nothing
My stepfather Dickie say I just might get hit
If I don't give
The girls all shisper 'hind my back
They try to break me whith cruel attacks
The boys they want only one thing
And so I give it, don't complain
Daddy's gone, Mama lost her job
Our house ain't a home no more
Still my faith's unshaken in God
I feel so lonely for hope and company
I don't take much and I give everything for free
(So, don't you want me?)
The girls all whisper'hind by back
My baby brother's smoking crack
The boys they want only one thing
And so I give it, don't complain
Daddy's gone, Mama lost her job
Our house ain't a home no more
Still my faith's unshaken in god
I dream I get a record deal
I'll buy a way out of here
Or maybe a new Lexus jeep
Or just a friend (Am I dreamin'? Am I dreamin'?)
There's Mr. roberts,Juan and Paul
All waiting for me down the hall
But then tomorrow they don't call
Still a moment's better than none at all
Daddy's gone (My name is La Tonya)
Mama lost her job (I am a sophomore)
Our house ain't a home no more (I'll be sixteen in August)
Since Mama broke her soul (I like to sing in chorus)
Daddy's gone (My name is La Tonya)
Mama lost her job (I am a sophomore)
Our house ain't a home no more (I'll be sixteen in August)
Still my faith's unshaken
Lord won't you please save me?
Is this the new slavery?
Here on the ghetto pavement?
But I believe in you baby
Yes, my faith's unshaken
In God
Amen, Amen
I'm siphoning gass from the high school bus
Into the tank of my beat-up bug
So I can drive away from the shouting and misery
I drive into the night, to the hill, to the water tower
To lie on my back and drink in the meteor shower
Knowing that many men have lain as I do now
Ptolemy, Copernicus, Carl Jung pondering his existence
Pondering, Is God with me now?
And I look to the sky, and I ask these questions
Yes, I feel something I don't understand
Can somebody say Amen? Can somebody say Amen?
My life is but a short and precious seed
Like three seasons of life in a leaf on a tree
And when I cascade to the ground I will not be done
I will mingle with the earth and give life to the roots again
Can somebody say Amen?
And I look to the sky, and I ask these questions
Yes, I feel something I don't understand
Can somebody say Amen? Can somebody say Amen?
Can somebody say Amen?
Amen for the drivers in their garbage trucks
Amen for our mothers, for the lust to fuck
Amen for the child with innocent eyes
Amen for Kevorkian and the right to die
Amen for NASA, The NSA, it's all a front anyway
Amen for Marilyn Manson, Saddam Hussein
Amen for America and the Milky Way
Amen for Elvis, for Betty Page
Amen for Gloria Steinem and Ronald Reagan
Amen for O.J., Clinton too
Amen for the Republican witch hunt coup
Amen for Gandhi, for Malcolm X
Amen for the uprising of the weaker sex
Amen for Babylon, the third world's call
Amen for the unity of us all
Amen, Amen, Amen
And I am not unique, we are all leave on this great big tree
This tree that is life, that is God, that is you, that is me
And I lie under my tree like the Buddhas before and after me
And I ask the stars, "What for?", yes, I feel something I can't explain
A light that flickers off and on again
And I look to the sky and I ask these questions
Yes, I feel something I don't understand
Oh, can somebody say Amen? Can somebody say Amen?
The need for love, the insecurity.
Cutting me down, to the fourteen year old girl,
The Father Figure criticizing me.
Go on – through the darkest night,
Cause I know inside the answer's here in me.
There's blood on my soul, for speaking out my pain,
Perpetuating hurt in family.
My mother in me – I cannot explain,
My need for love from her will never wane.
Go on – through the darkest night,
Cause I know inside the answer's here in me.
Go on – the shadowboxing fight
Disappears when all the music's here in me.
Like an oracle the music's here in me.
And I thank you God for music here in me.
Go on – through the darkest night,
Cause I know inside the answer's here in me
Go on – the shadowboxing fight
And I'll heal with understanding
And I'll deal with patient loving,
I'm big and proud all over
Not just on the stage
My secret self has many sides
That laugh and crush and sting
I'm red and thick like fire
I like it from behind
Round and Round and
Red to white
I'm pure and sad and silent
I know I've got a piece of my heart
On the sole of your shoe
I've got a little bit of thunder
Trapped inside of a cloud
The dog in you
Spit me out into the mississippi
Who can love my many selves
The wife, the bitch, the rapunzel
The one who cries
And calls for you
The one who is always alone
I know I've got a piece of my heart
On the sole of your shoe
I've got a little bit of thunder
Trapped inside of a cloud
The dog in you
Spit me out into the mississippi
Oh mississippi
Come and wash my pain away
Oh mississippi
Come and take my pain away
I feel I'm drowning
I feel I'm drowning
I feel I'm
I feel I'm
Dying
I know I've got a piece of my heart
On the sole of your shoe
I've got a little bit of thunder
Trapped inside of a cloud
The dog in you
