Top Bright Eyes, The Big Picture

The picture is far too big to look at kid
Your eyes won't open wide enough
And you are constantly surrounded
By the swirling stream of what is and what was
Well, we all made our predictions
But the truth still isn't out
But if you wanna see the future
Go stare into a cloud
And keep trying to find your way out
Of that maze of memories
It all sort of looks familiar
Until you get up close and then it's different clearly
But each time you turn a corner
You are, you are right back where you were
And your only hope is that forgetting
Might make a door appear
Well, is it your fear of being buried
That makes you so afraid to speak?
An avalanche of opinions
Like the one that fell, that I am now underneath
It was my voice that moved the first rock
And I would do it all over again
So, I mean it's cool if you keep quiet
But I like singing, yeah
So I'll be holding my note and stomping
And strumming and feeling so very lucky
There is nothing I know except this lifetime
Is one moment and wishing will just leave me empty
So you can try and live in darkness
But you will never shake the light
It will greet you every morning
And it'll make you more aware with its absence at night
When you are wrapped up in your blankets, baby
That comfortable cocoon
But I have seen the day of your awakening, boy
And it's coming soon
So go ahead and lose yourself in liquor
And you can praise the clouded mind
But it isn't what you are thinking, no
It's the course of history, your position in line
You are just a piece of the puzzle
So I think you better find your place
And don't go blamin' your knowledge
On some fruit you ate
'Cause there's been a great deal of discussion
Yes, about the properties of man
Animal or angel? You were carved from bone
But your heart it's just sand
And the wind is going to scatter it
And cover everything with love
So if it makes you happy then
Keep kneeling, Mama, but I am standing up
Because this veil, it has been lifted, yes
My eyes are wet with clarity
I have been a witness to such wonders
Oh, I have searched for them all across this country
But I think I'll be returning now
To the town where I was born
And I understand you must keep movin' friend
But I am headed home
Yeah, I'm gonna follow the road
And let the scenery sweeping by easily enter my body
And I'll send you all this message in code
Underground, over mountains, through forests and deserts and cities
Ah, ah, ah, all across electric wires, and baited line, ya
The hook's in deep boys, there is no more time
So you can struggle in the water, be too stubborn to die

Top Bap Kennedy, The Big Picture

Blessed are the poor
Well that's alright, then
Baby you and me
Are goin' straight to heaven
I know I give it all away
No argument
I know I give it all away
Well I had no sense
When I was streetwise, streetwise
Nothin' you don't know
When you're streetwise.
Down on the lane
Expecting a fight
Getting high on the hill
Every single night
When we were streetwise, streetwise.0
Nothin' you don't know
When you're streetwise, streetwise
Nothin' you don't know
When you're streetwise, streetwise
Well it don't mean a thing
Out here in the world, in the real world
'Cos things don't work
The way they used to work
When we were streetwise, streetwise.
Nothin' you don't know when you're streetwise
Streetwise, streetwise
When you're streetwise, streetwise
Nothin' you don't know when you're streetwise
...[Oh yeah! Yeah...alright!]

Top Tori Amos, The Big Picture

Someone smashed my window
Broke into my brand new car
Last night
Caught my boyfriend looking
At another slender
Pair of thighs
Gotta make more money
Gotta get gotta get there faster than
The rest
Knock 'em off the ladder
If they even seem to
Stand a chance
The big picture
Gotta big white cloud
The big picture
Is starin' at me
Starin' at me
Why do I feel so threatened
That somebody else will
Take what's mine
Babe it's only rented
No one really owns the
Merchandise
What about what I want
Somehow it got lost somewhere
Inside
My mother's on my case
I told her it's my life
Well, she just died
The big picture
Gotta big white cloud
The big picture
Starin' at me
Starin' at me
The big picture
On a big blank wall
The big picture
Is starin' at me
Starin' at me
When I can see
I'll try again
I've got my paints
The big picture...
The big picture
Gotta big white cloud
The big picture
Starin' at me
Starin' at me
The big picture
On a big blank wall
The big picture
Is starin' at me

Top Michael W. Smith, The Big Picture

Word of mouth is the counselor there is no need for proof
In a world that? s wired for sound
The tongue becomes the mighty sword that battles the truth
In a world that? s wired for sound
Comin? on like a tidal wave
That washes through the brain the state of mind
No dispute when the noise is made
And so it lets the blind lead the blind
Lured by charisma to be swayed to believe
Word of mouth is the counselor there is no need for proof
In a world that? s wired for sound
The tongue becomes the mighty sword that battles the truth
In a world that? s wired for sound
State of mind [Incomprehensible]
Easier believing what is hard to get rid of than to try
Never searching just accepting
Feeds the mind enough to get you by
Scratching the surface yet to dig deeper down
Word of mouth is the counselor there is no need for proof
In a world that? s wired for sound
The tongue becomes the mighty sword that battles the truth
In a world that? s wired for sound
Wisdom from the sacred page is turned and ignored
In a world that? s wired for sound
[Incomprehensible] sound
Word of mouth is the counselor there is no need for proof
In a world that? s wired for sound
The tongue becomes the mighty sword that battles the truth
In a world that? s wired for sound
Wisdom from the sacred page is turned and ignored
In a world that? s wired for sound
In a world, in a world, in a world that? s wired for sound
The tongue becomes the mighty sword that battles the truth
In a world that? s wired for sound
Wisdom from the sacred page is turned and ignored
In a world that? s wired for sound
In a world, in a world that? s wired it's wired for sound
That battles the truth in a world that? s wired for sound

Top Elton John, The Big Picture

On and on
The story of our lives goes on and on
The path of time
The sunsets up ahead roll along
In your eyes
The option of a warm embrace implies
You're my friend
Happy endings keep our love alive
And tell me do I fit in the big picture
Do I have a shot at the big part
'Cause I've been up all night looking at the big picture
I've got some good lines for my big star
Wanna be your main man in the big picture
What a deal
To get a part like this
Day to day
The shifting wind just blows us on our way
Here and there
Our pockets full of things to say
Oh my love
I proudly represent you in this world
Little satellite
Brightest star tonight, oh my love
And tell me do I fit in the big picture
Do I have a shot at the big part
'Cause I've been up all night looking at the big picture
I've got some good lines for my big star
Hope I got a future in the big picture
At the last embrace
From the first kiss
And tell me do I fit in the big picture
Do I have a shot at the big part
'Cause I've been up all night looking at the big picture

Top My Dad Is Dead, The Big Picture

She says I don't care
But that's not the way it is
I know it's not
But her words are so strong
It's hard not to believe in them
I say I don't mind
But that's not the way it is
I know it's not
But my words are so small
It's hard to hang on to them
I could spend my whole life
Thinking about what's important to me
I could spend my whole life
Thinking about what matters to me
I could spend my whole life
Worrying about what's going to happen to me
I could waste my whole life
Thinking about just what it is my life means
She says I don't try
But that's not the way it is
I know it's not
But she can read me like a book
She's read a hundered thousand times
I say it's all right
But that's not the way it is
I know it's not
But I know in my heart
That I'm so very tired of pretending
Sometimes what matters doesn't really matter at all
Sometimes it doesn't fit inside the big picture
Sometimes I need to be just where I am
Sometimes I need to know that right here is good enough
She says I don't care
But that's not the way it is
I know it's not
But her words are so strong
It's hard not to believe in them
I say I don't mind
But that's not the way it is
I know it's not
But my words are so small
It's hard to hang on to them
I could spend my whole life
Thinking about what's important to me
I could spend my whole life
Thinking about what matters to me
I could spend my whole life
Worrying about what's going to happen to me
I could waste my whole life
Thinking about just what it is my life means
Sometimes what matters doesn't really matter at all
Sometimes it doesn't fit inside the big picture
Sometimes I need to be just where I am
Sometimes I need to know that right here is good enough
Sometimes I need to be just where I am

Top Cotton Mather, The Big Picture

Under condo lights
I remember your smile
Looking through the difficult days
Telling me it will be okay
And under starry nights
With my baby and I
A crystal moon is over beyond
Telling us the way things are
When the kingfisher lights (?)
From the cocktails of mine (?)
I think of my life
And feel so happy that I've found my way
To these four walls and thanking the day (?)
And under heartless nights (?)
What a moment arrives
Blessings coming down from above
And the greatest of these is love

Top Arden, The Big Picture

Hey kid what you lookin' so sad for
There's a whole wide world waitin' out your front door
Everybody knows it so get your ass off the floor
Everyone knows it so take a look around
Woooooah
You can never sort it out
When you're staring out your window
It will only bring you down
If you think that only you know
You will never find your way
A constant battle everyday
You know
Hey kid don't you wonder where those years went
Already twenty wasting all your time spent
Lookin' for the answers but you don't know what they all meant
Everyone knows it so turn your life around
Woooooah
You can never sort it out
When you're staring out your window
It will only bring you down
If you think that only you know
You will never find your way
A constant battle everyday
You know
Woooooah
You can never sort it out
When you're staring out your window
It will only bring you down
If you think that only you know
You will never find your way
A constant battle everyday
You know

Top Devo, The Big Picture

GOING ROUND THE WORLD
DON'T KNOW WHERE WE'RE GOING
WE DON'T EVEN CARE
BUT YOU JUST CAN'T BE FROM SOMEPLACE ELSE
UNLESS YOU GO SOMEWHERE
AND WE'RE IN THE SAME BOAT
SO AS LONG AS IT FLOATS
WE MIGHT AS WELL STOP 'N' STARE
AT THE BIG PICTURE
THE BIG PICTURE
GET THE B-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-G PICTURE
WE'RE ALMOST THERE
WE'RE GONNA KEEP ON GOING
'TIL THAT NEW AGE DAWNS
ALWAYS KEEPING AN EYE ON THE STARS IN THE SKY
IN CASE ONE STARTS TO FALL
AND WE'RE IN THE SAME BOAT
AS THE ONES WHO CAN'T FLOAT
SO THEY MIGHT FREAK OUT AND SINK US ALL
AND MISS THE BIG PICTURE
(GOING ROUND THE WORLD)
THE BIG PICTURE
(GOT TO GET IT NOW)
LIKE A FISH IN THE WATER
YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'VE BEEN
'TIL YOU JUMP OUT AND TAKE A LOOK AROUND

Top Chaser, The Big Picture

[Verse 1:]
Ever present is real life, in the way
Keeping you from really living today
Like gravity, it's always raining down
Constant as time, but it's on your time now
Take a step back when problems abound
Tunnel vision your mind through the ground
Ills of the world, they're hard on the eyes,
But there's a bigger picture to this life (You'll see it)
And you're the only one-2-3-4
[Chorus:]
Yeah, this is Life.
It's all up to you, get it right.
Yeah, this is Life.
It's all up to you, get it right.
And you're the only one who is seeing it now.
[Verse 2:]
Let it build up and you can't let it go
It's gonna fall harder than you know
No true gain, endless fight
It just takes one turning point
New perspective, new outlook on new life
You're the reason we now realize
Now I see through, at the darkest times
You've shown me the world through different eyes (You'll see it)
And you're the only one-2-3-4
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
Live now and have no regrets
Make good use of your time and don't forget
You only have one shot at life and then you're through
Better make sure your aim is true.
And you're the only one-2-3-4

Top Ric Ocasek, The Big Picture

When the big picture shrinks to a room
To be a spectator of its ritual
Presented alone or with a group
Noisecians with lighting
Artist visuals performed
No separation
Noisecians
Above the blackout
Project sound vitamins
Never mind a world that can’t see past brutality
Answers are getting the gas
Live gestures
Have constantly been used
As weapons
As weapons

Top Big L, The Big Picture

(One, two, y'all know, y'all know, y'all know)
Alright, we gon' keep it movin'
(Check this out though)
We gon' keep it movin', we gon' keep it movin'
Get 'em up, y'all know what time it is, get 'em up
(Right you are)
You a true underground head
You know what this mean right here baby
This ain't motherfuckin' LL Cool J, get it up
You know what this mean?
It don't mean lazy, motherfucker either
Get it up, aight?
(You ready Prim'?)
It don't mean
(Everybody keep your L up like that)
It don't mean nothing, but one thing
Big L, Big L, Big L, Big L
Big L, Big L rest in peace
Yeah, yeah [Incomprehensible] come on
Yeah, yeah do you want to rest in peace?
Yeah, what are the best chances?
Big L, throw that L up in the air
We gon' have you do this shit
All motherfuckin' night so get used to it, get used to it
This is for my man Big L, word 'em up
Put ya L's up, put ya L's up
Put ya L's up, put ya L's up
Big L, Corleone, my nigga, my nigga C-Town
My big brother, Big Lee, holdin' it down
Flamboyant baby
For life, Big L, for my man Big L, Big L
Yo, do you know the game plan? C-Town, that's my main man
We never bring luggage, we go shoppin' when the plane lands
Still run with the same clan, used to be a Kane fan
Everything I rock is name brand, L'll make ya dame swallow
Your ice don't shine and your chain hollow
While you front in clubs for hours with the same bottle
Takin' midget sips, I run with the richest clicks
Tap the thickest chicks, plus drop the slickest hits
You know nuttin' about L, so don't doubt L
What's this motherfuckin' rap game without L?
Yo, that's like jewels without ice
That's like China without rice or the Holy Bible without Christ
Or the bulls without Mike or crack heads without pipes
The village without dykes or hockey games without fights
Don't touch the mic if you unable to spit
Flamboyant is the label I'm with, motherfucker
Big L, Corleone
My nigga, my nigga C-Town
My big brother, Big Lee, holdin' it down

Top Tommy Wright Iii, The Big Picture

[Hook: Mr. Nigga & (Mr. Emp)]
Whenever that ya die ya can't take shit wit ya
Some of my homies blind and can't see the big picture
(What ya gonna do when the riggamortis hit ya?)
Now who gon' rescue your soul,
(When the reaper come and get ya?)
[x2]
[Verse 1: Mr. Emp]
Takin' nothin' but chances, wid a twistin'
That'll take your situation, stimulation got me, bringin' home the bacon
What ya sayin', I know man, life ain't what it used to be
Now we got to lay that program down on the t-o-p
Stackin' nothin' but d-o-e to escape this pain and misery
Mind over the relation best respect the devil or family
Bitch come hang wid me, sendin' them slugs to you randomly
That's the way it goes nigga and that's the way it's gonna be
Wanna be havin' that broad, see ya fallin' nigga wid a broke
Payin' all them back half, niggas are dead, in they graves
See the grain the grain, of this game, tryna maintain
Afta playin' Jesse James they get they ass blown off the scene
Leave more brains then pop, let's go and street block
Swisher, need some, two eleven strolled up on the prop
So sit back and lounge, and twist yourself a Swisher
Cause when your ass die you can't take that shit wit ya
[Hook]
[Verse 2: Mr. Nigga]
I close my eyes and vibe take a pull from the blunt
Thinkin' and reminiscin' now a nigga be goin' from pimps to pumps
And I remember, when niggas loved jackin'
But nowadays niggas'll drop your ass while the argument happenin'
But now I'm lookin' three hundred and sixty degrees around me
Shiesty niggas flossin' while my baby momma's annoyin' me
And I got to work with this condition I be livin' in
I'm ready to do some dirt I'm on a mission for my dividends
Who'd ever thought that I'd result to sellin' dope?
Cause ah the gangsta ass niggas and thugs vibin' off the rhymes I wrote
I'm outta this hood see this ghetto,
Is where a man'll be pickin' up bullet shells at the spots I used to play at
And you wonder how it is to see a roaddog die,
And you wonder how it is to see his old girl cry
I'm lookin' em eye to eye but ya can't see the big picture
That when yo ass die ya can't take shit wit ya
[Hook]
[Verse 3: Memphis "G"]
Now it's too late for me to turn back,
I left my finger prints on the steering wheel from the Lex that I jacked
I got no time to relax, I'm quick to react
Spotted a old lady gettin' out a 2G Lac
I told her move back, don't make me put you on yo back
Start actin' like a dope fiend and smoke you like some crack,
Get me actin' like a wildcat,
Cause it's a fact that I've been known to run up medical bills wid this gat
What might ah started over somethin' small as a tap
Results in confliction death over hood rats
Kill a nigga for some pussy what the fuck is up wid that?
So many niggas done screwed that, so nigga why you chewin' that?
The only reason she fuckin' wid ya is cause you got that sack
Keep borrowin' her money from you but she never gonna pay you back
Game you lack, and you ain't got the stomach to be no mack
That's why when God call for you they ain't no comin' back
