WHEN I'M SIXTY FOUR

Artist(Band):The Beatles

When I get older losing my hair,

Many years from now,

Will you still be sending me a valentine

Page 5: Lyrics Book

Birthday greetings bottle of wine?

If I'd been out till quarter to three

Would you lock the door,

Will you still need me, will you still feed me,

When I'm sixty-four?

oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oooo

You'll be older too, (ah ah ah ah ah)

And if you say the word,

I could stay with you.

I could be handy mending a fuse

When your lights have gone.

You can knit a sweater by the fireside

Sunday mornings go for a ride.

Doing the garden, digging the weeds,

Who could ask for more?

Will you still need me, will you still feed me,

When I'm sixty-four?

Every summer we can rent a cottage

In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear

We shall scrimp and save

Page 6: Lyrics Book

Grandchildren on your knee

Vera, Chuck, and Dave

Send me a postcard, drop me a line,

Stating point of view.

Indicate precisely what you mean to say

Yours sincerely, Wasting Away.

Give me your answer, fill in a form

Mine for evermore

Will you still need me, will you still feed me,

When I'm sixty-four?

Whoo!

AMERICAN PIE

DON MCLEAN

A long, long time ago...

I can still remember

How that music used to make me smile.

Page 7: Lyrics Book

And I knew if I had my chance

That I could make those people dance

And, maybe, they’d be happy for a while.

But february made me shiver

With every paper I’d deliver.

Bad news on the doorstep;

I couldn’t take one more step.

I can’t remember if I cried

When I read about his widowed bride,

But something touched me deep inside

The day the music died.

So bye-bye, miss american pie.

Drove my chevy to the levee,

But the levee was dry.

And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskeyand rye

Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.

"this’ll be the day that I die."

Did you write the book of love,

And do you have faith in God above,

If the Bible tells you so?

Page 8: Lyrics Book

Do you believe in rock ’n roll,

Can music save your mortal soul,

And can you teach me how to dance real slow?

Well, I know that you’re in love with him

`cause I saw you dancin’ in the gym.

You both kicked off your shoes.

Man, I dig those rhythm and blues.

I was a lonely teenage broncin’ buck

With a pink carnation and a pickup truck,

But I knew I was out of luck

The day the music died.

I started singin’,

"bye-bye, miss american pie."

Drove my chevy to the levee,

But the levee was dry.

Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye

And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.

"this’ll be the day that I die."

Now for ten years we’ve been on our own

And moss grows fat on a rollin’ stone,

But that’s not how it used to be.

Page 9: Lyrics Book

When the jester sang for the king and queen,

In a coat he borrowed from james dean

And a voice that came from you and me,

Oh, and while the king was looking down,

The jester stole his thorny crown.

The courtroom was adjourned;

No verdict was returned.

And while lennon read a book of marx,

The quartet practiced in the park,

And we sang dirges in the dark

The day the music died.

We were singing,

"bye-bye, miss american pie."

Drove my chevy to the levee,

But the levee was dry.

Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye

And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.

"this’ll be the day that I die."

Helter skelter in a summer swelter.

The birds flew off with a fallout shelter,

Eight miles high and falling fast.

It landed foul on the grass.

Page 10: Lyrics Book

The players tried for a forward pass,

With the jester on the sidelines in a cast.

Now the half-time air was sweet perfume

While the sergeants played a marching tune.

We all got up to dance,

Oh, but we never got the chance!

`cause the players tried to take the field;

The marching band refused to yield.

Do you recall what was revealed

The day the music died?

We started singing,

"bye-bye, miss american pie."

Drove my chevy to the levee,

But the levee was dry.

Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye

And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.

"this’ll be the day that I die."

Oh, and there we were all in one place,

A generation lost in space

With no time left to start again.

So come on: jack be nimble, jack be quick!

Jack flash sat on a candlestick

Page 11: Lyrics Book

Cause fire is the devil’s only friend.

Oh, and as I watched him on the stage

My hands were clenched in fists of rage.

No angel born in hell

Could break that satan’s spell.

And as the flames climbed high into the night

To light the sacrificial rite,

I saw satan laughing with delight

The day the music died

He was singing,

"bye-bye, miss american pie."

Drove my chevy to the levee,

But the levee was dry.

Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye

And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.

"this’ll be the day that I die."

I met a girl who sang the blues

And I asked her for some happy news,

But she just smiled and turned away.

I went down to the sacred store

Where I’d heard the music years before,

But the man there said the music wouldn’t play.

Page 12: Lyrics Book

And in the streets: the children screamed,

The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed.

But not a word was spoken;

The church bells all were broken.

And the three men I admire most:

The father, son, and the holy ghost,

They caught the last train for the coast

The day the music died.

And they were singing,

"bye-bye, miss american pie."

Drove my chevy to the levee,

But the levee was dry.

And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye

Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.

"this’ll be the day that I die."

They were singing,

"bye-bye, miss american pie."

Drove my chevy to the levee,

But the levee was dry.

Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye

Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die."

Senorita

Don Williams(DeVito/Flowers)Album: Greatest Country Hits

Back in the innocent days there was a young Cowboy

Who was in love with a Mexican girl,

Only she didn't know it,

And he would watch her when she walked back,

In the cotton dress which danced in the wind

And her eyes held the stars

Now, she was the most beautiful thing

That cowboy had ever seen

Sent down straight from heaven

But he was afraid he would never win her heart

'Cause of some family scars left by the range wars

But oww... how he loved her

Senoritra passing by

Pardon me if i stop and ask you why

Senorita could it be

Someone like you could love someone like me

So he walked up to her

Page 14: Lyrics Book

Tipped his hat and introduced himself

And she looked up at him and didn't know what to say.

So he told her the story of his family

The trouble that brought the barbed wire

And all the things that he could'nt change

And then he told her that he loved her

And studied her reaction

And by the time the spring rains came

They were married

And there's an ol' song that my family used to sing

'Bout a young cowboy and a mexican girl

How they fell in love

Senorita passing by

Pardon me if i stop and ask you why

Senorita could it be

Someone like you could love someone like me

Senoritra passing by

Pardon me if i stop and ask you why

Senorita could it be

Someone like you could love someone like

Someone like you could love someone like me

BUBBLY

COLBIE CAILATWill you count me in?

I've been awake for a while now.You've got me feeling like a child now.'Cause every time I see your bubbly face,I get the tingles in a silly place.

It starts in my toes,And I crinkle my nose.Wherever it goes I'll always know,That you make me smile.Please stay for a while now.Just take your time,Wherever you go.

The rain is falling on my window pane,But we are hiding in a safer place.Under covers staying dry and warm.You give me feelings that I adore.

They start in my toes,Makes me crinkle my nose.Wherever it goes I'll always know,That you make me smile.Please stay for a while now.Just take your time,Wherever you go.What am I gonna say...When you make me feel this way...I just... mmmThey start in my toes,Makes me crinkle my nose.Wherever it goes I always know,That you make me smile.Please stay for a while now,Just take your time.Wherever you go...

Da-Da-Dum-da-da-da-da-da.

Page 16: Lyrics Book

I've been asleep for a while now.You tucked me in just like a child now.'Cause every time you hold me in your arms,I'm comfortable enough to feel your warmth.

It starts in my soul,And I lose all control.When you kiss my nose,The feeling shows.'Cause you make me smile.Baby just take your time now,Holding me tight.

Wherever, wherever, wherever you go.Wherever, wherever, wherever you go.Wherever you go,I always know,'Cause you make me smile even just for a while.

The Reason

HOOBASTANK

I'm not a perfect person

There's many things I wish I didn't do

Page 19: Lyrics Book

But I continue learning

I never meant to do those things to you

And so I have to say before I go

That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me

To change who I used to be

A reason to start over new

and the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you

It's something I must live with everyday

And all the pain I put you through

I wish that I could take it all away

And be the one who catches all your tears

Thats why I need you to hear

I've found a reason for me

To change who I used to be

A reason to start over new

and the reason is You [x4]

I'm not a perfect person

I never meant to do those things to you

And so I have to say before I go

Page 20: Lyrics Book

That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me

To change who I used to be

A reason to start over new

and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show

A side of me you didn't know

A reason for all that I do

And the reason is you

READ MY MIND

THE KILLERS

On the corner of main street

Just tryin' to keep it in line

You say you wanna move on and

You say I'm falling behind

Can you read my mind?

Can you read my mind?

Page 21: Lyrics Book

I never really gave up on

Breakin' out of this two-star town

I got the green light

I got a little fight

I'm gonna turn this thing around

Can you read my mind?

Can you read my mind?

The good old days, the honest man;

The restless heart, the Promised Land

A subtle kiss that no one sees;

A broken wrist and a big trapeze

Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind

'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine

Before you go, can you read my mind?

It’s funny how you just break down

Waitin' on some sign

I pull up to the front of your driveway

With magic soakin' my spine

Can you read my mind?

Can you read my mind?

Page 22: Lyrics Book

The teenage queen, the loaded gun;

The drop dead dream, the Chosen One

A southern drawl, a world unseen;

A city wall and a trampoline

Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind

'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine

Before you jump

Tell me what you find when you read my mind

Slippin’ in my faith until I fall

You never returned that call

Woman, open the door, don't let it sting

I wanna breathe that fire again

She said I don't mind, if you don't mind

'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine

Put your back on me

Put your back on me

Put your back on me

The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun

Can you read my mind

NO ONE NEEDS TO KNOW

SHANIA TWAIN

Am I dreamin' or stupid?

I think I've been hit by Cupid

But no one needs to know right now

I met a tall, dark and handsome man

And I've been busy makin' big plans

But no one needs to know right now

I got my heart set, my feet wet

And he don't even know it yet

But no one needs to know right now

I'll tell him someday some way somehow

But I'm gonna keep it a secret for now

I want bells to ring, a choir to sing

Page 26: Lyrics Book

The white dress, the guests, the cake, the car, the whole darn thing

But no one needs to know right now

I'll tell him someday some way somehow

But I'm gonna keep it a secret for now

We'll have a little girl a little boy

A little Benji we call Leroy

But no one needs to know right now

And I'm not lonely anymore at night

And he don't know only only he can make it right

And I'm not lonely anymore at night

And he don't know only only he can make it right

I'm not dreamin' or stupid

But boy have I been hit by Cupid

But no one needs to know right now

No one needs to know right now...

BUFFALO SOLDIER

BOB MARLEY AND THE WAILERS

Buffalo soldier, dreadlock rasta:

There was a buffalo soldier in the heart of america,

Stolen from africa, brought to america,

Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival.

I mean it, when I analyze the stench -

To me it makes a lot of sense:

How the dreadlock rasta was the buffalo soldier,

And he was taken from africa, brought to america,

Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival.

Said he was a buffalo soldier, dreadlock rasta -

Buffalo soldier in the heart of america.

If you know your history,

Then you would know where you coming from,

Then you wouldnt have to ask me,

Who the eck do I think I am.

Im just a buffalo soldier in the heart of america,

Stolen from africa, brought to america,

See it started at the park

Used to chill after dark

Oh, when you took my heart

That's when we fell apart

Cause we both thought

That love lasts forever (lasts forever)

They say we're too young

To get ourselves sprung

Oh we didn't care

We made it very clear

And they also said

That we couldn't last together (last together)

[Pre Chorus:]

[Verse 2:]

It was back in '99 (ninty-nine)

Watchin' movies all the time

Oh when I went away

For doin' my first crime

And I never thought

That we was gonna see each other (see each other)

And then I came out

Mami moved me down South

Oh I'm with my girl

Page 32: Lyrics Book

Who I thought was my world

It came out to be

That she wasn't the girl for me (girl for me)

[Pre Chorus:]

See it's very divine girl

You're a one of a kind

But you mash up my mind

You walked get declined

Oh Lord...

My baby is driving me crazy

[Chorus:]

Your way too beautiful girl

That's why it'll never work

You had me suicidal, suicidal

When you say it's over

Damn all these beautiful girls

They only wanna do your dirt

When they say it's over

[Verse 3:]

Now we're fussin'

And now we're fightin'

Page 33: Lyrics Book

Please tell me why

I'm feelin' slighting

And I don't know

How to make it better (make it better)

You're datin' other guys

You're tellin' me lies

Oh I can't believe

What I'm seein' with my eyes

I'm losin' my mind

And I don't think it's clever (think it's clever)

You're way too beautiful girl

That's why it'll never work

You'll have me suicidal, suicidal...

These Words

Natasha beddingfield

These words are my own

Threw some chords together

The combination D-E-F

Page 34: Lyrics Book

It's who I am, it's what I do

And I was gonna lay it down for you

Try to focus my attention

But I feel so A-D-D

I need some help, some inspiration

(But it's not coming easily)

Whoah oh!

Trying to find the magic

Trying to write a classic

Don't you know, don't you know, don't you know?

Waste-bin full of paper

Clever rhymes, see you later

These words are my own

From my heart flow

I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you

There's no other way

To better say

I love you, I love you...

Read some Byron, Shelly and Keats

Recited it over a Hip-Hop beat

I'm having trouble saying what I mean

With dead poets and drum machines

Page 35: Lyrics Book

I know I had some studio time booked

But I couldn't find a killer hook

Now you've gone & raised the bar right up

Nothing I write is ever good enough

These words are my own

From my heart flow

I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you

There's no other way

To better say

I love you, I love you!

I'm getting off my stage

The curtains pull away

No hyperbole to hide behind

My naked soul exposes

Whoah.. oh.. oh.. oh.. Whoah.. oh..

Trying to find the magic

Trying to write a classic

Waste-bin full of paper

Clever rhymes, see you later

These words are my own

From my heart flow

Page 36: Lyrics Book

I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you

That's all I got to say,

Can't think of a better way,

And that's all I've got to say,

I love you, is that okay?

Fast Car

TRACY CHAPMAN

you got a fast car

and I want a ticket to anywhere

maybe we make a deal

maybe together we can get somewhere

any place is better

starting from zero got nothing to lose

maybe we'll make something

but me myself I got nothing to prove

you got a fast car

Page 37: Lyrics Book

and I got a plan to get us outta here

I been working at the convenience store

managed to save just a little bit of money

won’t have to drive too far

just 'cross the border and into the city

you and I can both get jobs

and finally see what it means to be living

you see my old man's got a problem

he lives with the bottle that's the way it is

he says his body's too old for working

his body's too young to look like his

my mama went off and left him

she wanted more to life than he could give

I said somebody's got to take care of him

so I quit school and that's what I did

you got a fast car

but is it fast enough so we can fly away?

we gotta make a decision

leave tonight or live and die this way

CHORUS:

Page 38: Lyrics Book

C

So remember we were driving driving in your car

G

the speed so fast I felt like I was drunk

Em

and the city lights lay out before us

Dsus4

and your arm felt nice wrapped round my shoulder

C Em D

and I - I had a feeling that I belonged

C Em D

and I - I had a feeling I could be someone

C D

be someone, be someone

you got a fast car

and we go cruising to entertain ourselves

you still ain't got a job

Page 39: Lyrics Book

and I work in a market as a checkout girl

I know things will get better

you'll find work and I'll get promoted

we'll move out of the shelter

buy a big house and live in the suburbs

you got a fast car

and I got a job that pays all our bills

you stay out drinking late at the bar

see more of your friends than you do of your kids

I'd always hoped for better

thought maybe together you and me would find it

I got no plans I ain't going nowhere

so take your fast car and keep on driving

you got a fast car

AMANDA

DON WILLIAMS

<1st Verse>

A D A

I've held it all inward, Lord knows I've tried

A E A

But it's an awful awakening in a country boy's life

A D A

To look in the mirror in total surprise

A E A

At the hair on your shoulders and the age in your eyes.

<Chorus>

A D A

Amanda, light of my life

Page 41: Lyrics Book

A E A

Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife

A D A

Amanda, light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife

<2nd Verse>

It's a measure of people who don't understand

The pleasures of life in a hillbilly band.

I got my first guitar when I was fourteen

Now I'm crowding 30 and still wearing jeans.

AMERICAN DREAM

Performed by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, with Linda Ronstadt

Page 42: Lyrics Book

I beg your pardon, mama, what did you say?

My mind was drifting off on Martinique Bay.

It's not that I'm not interested, you see;

Augusta, Georgia is just no place to be.

I think Jamaican in the moonlight.

Sandy beaches, drinking rum every night.

We got no money, mama, but we can go;

We'll split the difference, go to Coconut Grove.

Keep on talking, mama, I can hear

Your voice, it tickles down inside of my ear.

I feel a tropical vacation this year,

Might be the answer to this hillbilly fear.

I think Jamaican in the moonlight.

Sandy beaches, drinking rum every night.

We got no money, mama, but we can go;

We'll split the difference, go to Coconut Grove.

Voila! An American Dream.

Well, we can travel girl, without any means.

When it's as easy as closing your eyes

Page 43: Lyrics Book

And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign.

Just keep talking, mama, I like that sound.

It goes so easy with that rain falling down.

I think a tropical vacation this year,

Might be the answer to this hillbilly fear.

Voila! An American Dream.

Yeah, we can travel, girl, without any means.

When it's as easy as closing your eyes

And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign.

Just think Jamaican in the moonlight.

Sandy beaches, drinking rum every night.

We got no money, mama, but we can go;

We'll split the difference, go to Coconut Grove.

Chorus

Been here before.

jeremy enigk

Though there's something in the air this time.

Now I wanna give away what I've taken back.

Run away with you toward the night.

A thousand names.

Though this something in me cannot smile,

don't wanna spend the day retracing steps.

Run away with you toward the light.

I can't stay long in the morning.

Another world went wrong - it's ok.

Now that you're gone,

hold me in your eyes or suddenly deny

I sympathize.

Those diamond days

A thousand strands of sunlight in her eyes.

Now I wanna give away what I've taken back.

Step away with you toward the night.

Page 47: Lyrics Book

Hold me in your eyes or suddenly deny

I empathize.

Hurry up and sleep,

to the night you go.

CANT HELP FALLING IN LOVE

ELVIS PRESLEY(words & music by george weiss - hugo peretti - luigi creatore)

Wise men say only fools rush in

Like a river flows surely to the sea

Darling so it goes

Some things are meant to be

Take my hand, take my whole life too

Yeah, I heard he got that hot new thing

It's called "Switch" (switch)

Let's get it going

[chorus]

Hey, Hey, turn it over and hit it,

Turn around now, switch

Turn it over and hit it

Page 52: Lyrics Book

Hey, vibe to vibe a second, it's a club girl why you arrived naked

Hear that, how the veteran glide the record

But don't download, go out and buy the record

Hey, something sexy 'bout her

Girl on the floor, all her friends around her

I mean real clean, ain't gotta touch or nothin'

It ain't like I like a chick on chick or somtin'

I'm just a sucker for a hot track

Gimme a drink and a chick to tell 'Stop that'

Dance is a hop and a clap, flip it round

Now bring it on back, break it down

Now switch

[chorus (2x)]ooh la la la

I gotta question, I need to ask somebody

Why is it that when y'all see me at the party

Y'all be looking like, "Ooh, he a movie star

He ain't supposed to be out on the floor with everybody"

But wait, oh, y'all forgetting

When I was, amateur spitting before the scripts were written

First one in, last one out the club

Burst in there, passing out in the club

Back at it, this cat is the wit and the charm

Page 53: Lyrics Book

Taking you higher, like a syringe hittin' ya arm

Bringing the fire, making your Benz ring the alarm

Let me see you clap, spin baby, come on

[chorus (2x)]ooh la la la la

Oh, you just gonna stand there, huh

What you too cute to dance, or you scared

It ain't really that hard to do and

I ain't trying to be in love with you and

All I wanted was a moment or two to

See if you could do that switch-a-roo and

Shut your mouth fool, get your crew and

The thick body and the rear one too and

I'll be right here waiting on you

See if y'all can do that switch-a-roo

Hey, hey

That's what I'm talking bout, do that thing mama

That's what I'm talking bout, do that thing mama

That's what I'm talking bout, do that thing mama

That's what I'm talking bout

BEFORE THE NEXT TEARDROPS FALL

FREDDIE FENDERIf he brings you happiness

Then I wish you all the best

It's your happiness that matters most of all

But if he ever breaks your heart

If the teardrops ever start

I'll be there before the next teardrops fall

Though it hurts to let you go

Darling I want you to know that

I'll stand by you if ever you should call

And if I should ever hear

That he made you shed a tear

I'll be there before the next teardrops fall

I'll be there anytime you need me

By your side to dry away

Every teardrop that you cried

If he ever leaves you blue

Just remember I love you

I'll be there before the next teardrops fall

Yes, I'll be there before the next teardrops fall

You're Beautiful

JAMES BLUNT

My life is brilliant.

My love is pure.

I saw an angel.

Of that I'm sure.

She smiled at me on the subway.

She was with another man.

But I won't lose no sleep on that,

'Cause I've got a plan.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.

Page 66: Lyrics Book

You're beautiful, it's true.

I saw your face in a crowded place,

And I don't know what to do,

'Cause I'll never be with you.

Yeah, she caught my eye,

As we walked on by.

She could see from my face that I was,

Fucking high,(Real version)

Flying high,(clean version)

And I don't think that I'll see her again,

But we shared a moment that will last till the end.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.

You're beautiful, it's true.

I saw your face in a crowded place,

And I don't know what to do,

'Cause I'll never be with you.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.

You're beautiful, it's true.

There must be an angel with a smile on her face,

When she thought up that I should be with you.

But it's time to face the truth,

I will never be with you.

SACRIFICE

ELTON JOHN

It's a human sign

When things go wrong

When the scent of her lingers

And temptation's strong

Into the boundary

Of each married man

Sweet deceit comes calling

And negativity lands

Cold cold heart

Hard done by you

Some things look better baby

Just passing through

And it's no sacrifice

Just a simple word

It's two hearts living

In two separate worlds

But it's no sacrifice

No sacrifice

Page 70: Lyrics Book

It's no sacrifice at all

Mutual misunderstanding

After the fact

Sensitivity builds a prison

In the final act

We lose direction

No stone unturned

No tears to damn you

When jealousy burns

WIDE OPEN SPACES

DIXIE CHICKS

Who doesn't know what I'm talking about

Who's never left home, who's never struck out

To find a dream and a life of their own

A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone

Many precede and many will follow

Page 71: Lyrics Book

A young girl's dream no longer hollow

It takes the shape of a place out west

But what it holds for her, she hasn't yet guessed

[Chorus:]

She needs wide open spaces

Room to make her big mistakes

She needs new faces

She knows the high stakes

She traveled this road as a child

Wide eyed and grinning, she never tired

But now she won't be coming back with the rest

If these are life's lessons, she'll take this test

[Repeat Chorus]

She knows the high stakes

As her folks drive away, her dad yells, "Check the oil!"

Mom stares out the window and says, "I'm leaving my girl"

She said, "It didn't seem like that long ago"

When she stood there and let her own folks know

[Repeat Chorus]

She knows the highest stakes

Page 72: Lyrics Book

She knows the highest stakes

She knows the highest stakes

She knows the highest stakes

Verse II:

Come up on different streets, they both the streets of shame

Both dirty both mean, yes and even and dream was just the same

And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real.

How can you look at me as if I was just another part of your deal

Well you can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold.

you can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold

You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin yeah

Now you just say oh Romeo yeah, I used to have a scene with him.

Chorus II:

Juliet when we made love you used to cry

you said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die

There's a place for us, you know the movie song

When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong Juliet?

Page 79: Lyrics Book

Verse III:

I can't do the talk, like they talk on the tv

I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be.

I can't do anything, but I'd do anything for you.

I cant't do anything but be in love with you.

And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be

All I do is keep the beat and bad company.

All I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme

Juliet I'd do the stars with you anytime.

Repeat Chorus II:

Verse IV:

A love struck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade.

Now he's laying everymody low, with a love song that he made.

Finds a convenient street light, steps out of the shade

Says something like you and me babe how about it

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

You gotta check it and see, one more time for me

Wait

Deliver the letter, the sooner the better

LAST KISS

PEARL JAM

Oh, where oh where can my baby be?

The Lord took her away from me

She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good

So I can see my baby when I leave this world.

We were out on a date in my daddy's car

We hadn't driven very far

Page 90: Lyrics Book

There in the road, up straight ahead

A car was stalled, the engine was dead

I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right

I'll never forget the sound that night

The screamin' tires, the bustin' glass

The painful scream that I heard last.

Oh, where oh where can my baby be?

The Lord took her away from me

She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good

So I can see my baby when I leave this world.

When I woke up, the rain was pourin' down

There were people standing all around

Something warm rollin' through my eyes

But somehow I found my baby that night

I lifted her head, she looked at me and said

"Hold me darling just a little while."

I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss

I found the love that I knew I would miss

But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight

I lost my love, my life that night.

Oh, where oh where can my baby be?

The Lord took her away from me

Page 91: Lyrics Book

She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good

So I can see my baby when I leave this world.

Oooh~ ooooh~

OH CAROL

SMOKIE

Well I was out cruisin', getting late and I was losin',

When I saw you walking my way,

So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want,

But so do I and I aint losing today.

Well your hips were swinging and your jeans were clinging,

You were driving me out of my mind,

On a hot afternoon when there's nothing to do,

Your not the sort of thing a fellow should find,

So I pulled on over, tossed your hair off your shoulder,

When you turned and you looked my way,

Oh you would have died or you'd have skinned me alive,

If I'd have said what I wanted to say,

So being polite said what you doin' tonight,

You said just so happens I'm free,

You got all the right curves and all the right words,

And that's alright by me.

Page 92: Lyrics Book

Chorus:

Oh Carol you got me eatin' my heart away,

You got me countin' my nights and days,

Oh I am floatin' on the milky way,

Oh Carol nobody's done it before,

Oh baby you've opened the door,

Oh Carol you can do it some more.

Well if you're ready for this when we started to kiss,

She said hold on a minute or two.

Well naturally I knew it couldn't be me,

I said baby what's troublin' you,

She said I'm just sixteen if you know what I mean,

So we sat and we talked for a while,

And when we finally kissed you know she didn't resist,

And I must say she did it with style.

Chorus

Well I was out cruisin', getting late and I was losin',

When I saw you walking my way,

So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want,

But so do I and I aint losing today.

IT'S YOUR LIFE

SMOKIE

(Nicky Chinn / Mike Chapman)

Who said the web of life is woven in a dream,

'Cause your life is filled with dreams you can'tbelieve.

So the only way you live with it is acting every scene,

And you play the part so well, that you deceive

Now and again I find you ain't got a friend

You know I come and I go, but it's your life...

How does it feel when he's not around?

Can he be real when he can be found nowhere?s

Who lit the flame upon the candle tonight?

And who let herself be lit so easily?

And who let it burn until the early morning light

And in the early morning gave herself to me?

And so, my love, you know that it's your life...

Page 98: Lyrics Book

I HAVE A DREAM

ABBA

I have a dream, a song to sing

To help me cope with anything

If you see the wonder of a fairy tale

You can take the future even if you fail

I believe in angels

Something good in everything I see

I believe in angels

When I know the time is right for me

Ill cross the stream - I have a dream

I have a dream, a fantasy

To help me through reality

And my destination makes it worth the while

Pushing through the darkness still another mile

I believe in angels

Something good in everything I see

I believe in angels

When I know the time is right for me

Ill cross the stream - I have a dream

Ill cross the stream - I have a dream

Page 99: Lyrics Book

I have a dream, a song to sing

Ill cross the stream - I have a dream

A beach that wept with desert waves

IT MUST HAVE BEEN LOVE

ROXETTE

Page 108: Lyrics Book

Lay a whisper on my pillow

Leave the winter on the ground

I wake up lonely, is there a silence

In the bedroom and all around

Touch me now, I close my eyes

And dream away...

It must have been love, but it's over now

It must have been good, but I lost it somehow

It must have been love, but it's over now

From the moment we touched till the time had run out

Make believing we're together

That I'm sheltered by your heart

But in and outside I turn to water

Like a teardrop in your palm

And it's a hard winter's day

I dream away...

It must have been love, but it's over now

It was all that I wanted, now I'm living without

It must have been love, but it's over now

It's where the water flows, it's where the wind blows

Page 109: Lyrics Book

It must have been love, but it's over now

It must have been good, but I lost it somehow

It must have been love, but it's over now

From the moment we touched till the time had run out

GIVE ME HOPE JOANNA

EDDIE GRANTWell Jo'anna she runs a country

She runs in Durban and the Transvaal

She makes a few of her people happy, oh

She don't care about the rest at all

She's got a system they call apartheid

It keeps a brother in a subjection

But maybe pressure can make Jo'anna see

How everybody could a live as one

[chorus:]

Gimme hope, Jo'anna

Hope, Jo'anna

Gimme hope, Jo'anna

'Fore the morning come

Gimme hope, Jo'anna

Hope, Jo'anna

Hope before the morning come

Page 121: Lyrics Book

I hear she make all the golden money

To buy new weapons, any shape of guns

While every mother in black Soweto fears

The killing of another son

Sneakin' across all the neighbours' borders

Now and again having little fun

She doesn't care if the fun and games she play

Is dang'rous to ev'ryone

[chorus]

She's got supporters in high up places

Who turn their heads to the city sun

Jo'anna give them the fancy money

Oh to tempt anyone who'd come

She even knows how to swing opinion

In every magazine and the journals

For every bad move that this Jo'anna makes

They got a good explanation

[chorus]

Even the preacher who works for Jesus

The Archbishop who's a peaceful man

Page 122: Lyrics Book

Together say that the freedom fighters

Will overcome the very strong

I wanna know if you're blind Jo'anna

If you wanna hear the sound of drums

FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE

Page 124: Lyrics Book

SMOKIEShe'll take it, she'll fake it for a few dollars more.

She'll show you her heart, then show you the door.

You know she'll die just a little for a few dollars more.

Even fly just a little like she's done it before.

She'll take it, she'll fake it for a few dollars more.

She'll show you her heart, then show you the door.

Strange things can happen to you.

When you've got so much and you've got nothing to do.

Oh oh oh what do you know.

How do you get there when there's nowhere to go.

And so you wonder just what she'll do.

She's never known love but then she's never known you.

And it's too bad those sad green eyes.

Are so full of questions and so full of lies.

Chorus, repeat

GOODBYE TO ROMANCE

OZZY OSBOURNEYesterday has been and gone

Tommorow will I find the sun

Or will it rain

Everybody's having fun

Except me, I'm the lonely one

I live in shame

I say goodbye to romance, yeah

Goodbye to friends, I tell you

Goodbye to all the past

I guess that we'll meet

We'll meet in the end

I've been the king, I've been the clown

Now broken wings can't hold me down

I'm free again

The jester with the broken crown

It won't be me this time around

To love in vain

Page 128: Lyrics Book

I say goodbye to romance, yeah

Goodbye to friends, I tell you

Goodbye to all the past

I guess that we'll meet

We'll meet in the end

And I feel the time is right

Although I know that you just might say to me

What'cha gonna do

What'cha gonna do

But I have to take this chance goodbye

To friends and to romance

And to all of you

And to all of you

Come on now

I say goodbye to romance, yeah

Goodbye to friends, I tell you

Goodbye to all the past

I guess that we'll meet

We'll meet in the end

And the weather's looking fine

And I think the sun will shine again

And I feel I've cleared my mind

Page 129: Lyrics Book

All the past is left behind again

I say goodbye to romance, yeah

Goodbye to friends, I tell you

Goodbye to all the past

I guess that we'll meet

We'll meet in the end

Mama Mia

ABBA

I've been cheated by you since I don't know when

So I made up my mind, it must come to an end

Look at me now, will I ever learn?

I don't know how but I suddenly lose control

There's a fire within my soul

Just one look and I can hear a bell ring

One more look and I forget everything, o-o-o-oh

Mamma mia, here I go again

Page 136: Lyrics Book

My my, how can I resist you?

Mamma mia, does it show again?

My my, just how much I've missed you

Yes, I've been brokenhearted

Blue since the day we parted

Why, why did I ever let you go?

Mamma mia, now I really know,

My my, I could never let you go.

I've been angry and sad about the things that you do

I can't count all the times that I've told you we're through

And when you go, when you slam the door

I think you know that you won't be away too long

You know that I'm not that strong.

Just one look and I can hear a bell ring

One more look and I forget everything, o-o-o-oh

Mamma mia, here I go again

My my, how can I resist you?

Mamma mia, does it show again?

My my, just how much I've missed you

Yes, I've been brokenhearted

Blue since the day we parted

Why, why did I ever let you go?

Mamma mia, even if I say

Page 137: Lyrics Book

Bye bye, leave me now or never

mamma mia, it's a game we play

Bye bye doesn't mean forever

Mamma mia, here I go again

My my, how can I resist you?

Mamma mia, does it show again?

My my, just how much I've missed you

Yes, I've been brokenhearted

Blue since the day we parted

Why, why did I ever let you go

Mamma mia, now I really know

My my, I could never let you go

DON'T PLAY YOUR ROCK AND ROLL

SMOKIE

Don't play your rock'n'Roll to me

That ain't the way it's meant to be

Page 138: Lyrics Book

I ain't so blind that I can't see

Just let it lie and let it be

Don't play your rock'n'roll to me

Don't play your rock'n'roll to me

Don't play your rock'n'roll to me

I know you think I'm crazy to keep hangin' round

But I was sort of hopin' you'd change from the girl I found

But your words just sound like rock'n'roll lines to me

They''re just about as burnt out as a worn out forty-five

And you can't expect them to keep our love alive

Don't play your rock'n'Roll to me

I guess you had me fooled for a while

Whit your come on loks and your Mona Lisa smile

But your rock'n'roll is gettin' out of time for me

Go sing your lines to someone else, 'coss someone else may be

The fool you always thought you saw in me

DANCING QUEEN

ABBAYou can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life

See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the dancing queen

Page 139: Lyrics Book

Friday night and the lights are low

Looking out for the place to go

Where they play the right music, getting in the swing

You come in to look for a king

Anybody could be that guy

Night is young and the music?s high

With a bit of rock music, everything is fine

You?re in the mood for a dance

And when you get the chance...

You are the dancing queen, young and sweet, only seventeen

Dancing queen, feel the beat from the tambourine

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life

See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the dancing queen

You?re a teaser, you turn ?em on

Leave them burning and then you?re gone

Looking out for another, anyone will do

You?re in the mood for a dance

And when you get the chance...

You are the dancing queen, young and sweet, only seventeen

Dancing queen, feel the beat from the tambourine

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life

See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the dancing queen

CARRIE

EUROPEWhen light goes down, I see no reason

For you to cry. weve been through this before

In every time, in every season,

God knows Ive tried

So please dont ask for more.

Cant you see it in my eyes

This might be our last goodbye

Carrie, carrie, things they change my friend

Carrie, carrie, maybe well meet again

I read your mind, with no intentions

Of being unkind, I wish I could explain

It all takes time, a whole lot of patience

If its a crime, how come I feel no pain.

Are you lonesome tonight, do you miss me tonight?

C C7 F F

Are you sorry we drifted apart?

G G G7 G7

Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day

G7 G7 C C

When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?

C7 C7 F F

Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?

D D Dm G

Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?

C Em D D

Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?

Dm G7 C G7

Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.

(Talking verses,play the same chords)

I wonder if you are lonesome tonight

Page 146: Lyrics Book

You know someone said that the world is a stage

And you must play a part.

Fate had me playing in love twes my sweet heart.

Act one was when I met you, I loved you at first glance

You read your line so cleverly and never missed a 'q'

Then came act 2, you seemed to change and you acted strange

And why I'll never know.

Honey, you're lying when you said you loved me

And I had no cause to doubt you.

But I'd rather go on hearing your lies

Than go on living without you.

Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there

With emptiness all around

And if you won't come back to me

Then make them bring the curtain down.

(sing again)

C Em D D

Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?

Dm G7 C G7

Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.

ALL I WANT IS EVERYTHING

DEFF LEPPARD

I dont know how to leave you

And I dont know how to stay

Ive got things that I must tell you

That I dont know how to say

The man behind these empty words

Is crying out in shame

Holding on to this sinking ship

When nothing else remains

All I want is everything

Am I asking too much?

Page 151: Lyrics Book

All I want is everything

Like the feel of your touch

But all I have are yesterdays

Tomorrow never comes

Its hard to hold your head up

When youre kneeling down to pray

And the talking dooesnt come easy now

When the words get in the way

And if you could see whats going on

Behind these private eyes

The truth would look so easy now

But Im running out of lies

You think the shadow of doubt

Is hangin over my head

Its just an angel whose wings hide the sun

And its myself I betray

I can not wish this away

Took my chance now the damage is done

All I want is everything

Am I asking too much?

All I want is everything

Like the feel, the feel of your touch

Page 152: Lyrics Book

When all I have are yesterdays

Tomorrow never comes

Ooh, oooh

Ooh, oooh

But that dont change the way I feel about you,

And if you think this thought might bring me down,

Look again cause I aint wearin no frown!

I dont really care about your sister

Forget the little bitch cause I already kissed her

One thing that I did to your lady

I put her on the bed and she didnt even say maybe

I know you know everybody knows

The way it comes, the way its gonna go

You think its sad,

And thats too bad,

cause Im havin

A ball hatin

Every little thing about you!

FEEL ALRIGHT

We are young, we run green

Keep our teeth nice and clean

See out friends, see the sights

Feel alright!

We wake up, we go out

Smoke a fag, put it out

See out friends, see the sights

Feel alright!

Are we like you?

I cant be sure

After seeing as she turns

We are strange in our worlds

Page 155: Lyrics Book

But we are young

We get by

Cant go mad, aint got time

Sleep around if we like

But were all right

Got some cash, bought some wheels

Took it out, cross some fields

Lost control, hit a wall

But were alright

Are we like you?

I cant be sure

On the scene as she turns

We are strange in our worlds

But we are young, weve gone green

Weve got teeth nice and clean

See out friends, see the sights

Feel alright!

But we are young, weve gone green

Weve got teeth nice and clean

See out friends, see the sights

Feel alright!

SOMEDAY I'LL BE SATURDAY NIGHT

BON JOVI

Hey, man I'm alive I'm takin' each day and night at a time

I'm feelin' like a Monday but someday I'll be Saturday night

Hey, my name is Jim, where did I go wrong

My life's a bargain basement, all the good shit's gone

I just can't hold a job, where do I belong

I'm sleeping in my car, my dreams move on

My name is Billy Jean, my love was bought and sold

I'm only sixteen, I feel a hundred years old

My foster daddy went, took my innocence away

The street life aint much better, but at least I get paid

And Tuesday just might go my way

It can't get worse than yesterday

Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind

But somehow I'll survive

Hey man I'm alive I'm takin' each day and night at a time

Page 157: Lyrics Book

Yeah I'm down, but I know I'll get by

Hey hey hey hey, man gotta live my life

Like I ain't got nothin' but this roll of the dice

I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night

Now I can't say my name, and tell you where I am

I want to roll myself away, don't know if I can

I wish that I could be in some other time and place

With someone elses soul, someone elses face

Oh, Tuesday just might go my way

It can't get worse than yesterday

Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind

But somehow I'll survive

Hey, man I'm alive I'm takin' each day and night at a time

Yeah I'm down, but I know I'll get by

Hey hey hey hey, man gotta live my life

I'm gonna pick up all the pieces and what's left of my pride

I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night

Saturday night Here we go

Some day I'll be Saturday night

I'll be back on my feet, I'll be doin' alright

Page 158: Lyrics Book

It may not be tomorrow baby, that's OK

I ain't goin' down, gonna find a way, hey hey hey

Hey man I'm alive I'm takin' each day and night at a time

Yeah, I'm down, but I know I'll get by

Hey hey hey hey, man, gotta live my life

Like I ain't got nothin' but this roll of the dice

I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night

I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night

Saturday night, all right, all right

STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN

LED ZEPPLIN

Theres a lady whos sure

All that glitters is gold

And shes buying a stairway to heaven.

When she gets there she knows

If the stores are all closed

With a word she can get what she came for.

Ooh, ooh, and shes buying a stairway to heaven.

Page 159: Lyrics Book

Theres a sign on the wall

But she wants to be sure

cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.

In a tree by the brook

Theres a songbird who sings,

Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,

Ooh, it makes me wonder.

Theres a feeling I get

When I look to the west,

And my spirit is crying for leaving.

In my thoughts I have seen

Rings of smoke through the trees,

And the voices of those who standing looking.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,

Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And its whispered that soon

If we all call the tune

Then the piper will lead us to reason.

And a new day will dawn

For those who stand long

And the forests will echo with laughter.

Page 160: Lyrics Book

If theres a bustle in your hedgerow

Dont be alarmed now,

Its just a spring clean for the may queen.

Yes, there are two paths you can go by

But in the long run

Theres still time to change the road youre on.

And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it wont go

In case you dont know,

The pipers calling you to join him,

Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,

And did you know

Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road

Our shadows taller than our soul.

There walks a lady we all know

Who shines white light and wants to show

How evrything still turns to gold.

And if you listen very hard

The tune will come to you at last.

When all are one and one is all

To be a rock and not to roll.

Page 161: Lyrics Book

And shes buying a stairway to heaven.

THE YOUNG ONES

CLIFF RICHARD

The young ones,

Darling we’re the young ones,

And young ones shouldn’t be afraid.

To live, love

While the flame is strong,

For we wont be the young ones very long.

Tomorrow,

Why wait till tomorrow,

Tomorrow sometimes never comes.

Love, me,

There’s a song to be sung

And the best time is to sing while we’re young.

Once in every lifetime

Come’s a love like this.

I need you and you need me.

Page 162: Lyrics Book

Oh my darling cant you see.

Young dreams

Should be dreamed together,

Young hearts shouldnt be afraid.

And some day when the years have flown

Darling, this will teach the young ones of our own.

The young ones

Darling, were the young ones

The young ones

Darling, were the young ones.

YOU GET WHAT YOU GIVE

New Radicals

Wake up kids

We've got the dreamers disease

Age 14 we got you down on your knees

So polite, you're busy still saying please

Fri - enemies, who when you're down ain't your friend

Every night we smash their Mercedes - Benz

First we run and then we laugh till we cry

But when the night is falling

And you cannot find the light

If you feel your dream is dying

Page 163: Lyrics Book

Hold tight

You've got the music in you

Don't let go

You've got the music in you

One dance left

This world is gonna pull through

Don't give up

You've got a reason to live

Can't forget you only get what you give

Four a. m. we ran a miracle mile

Were flat broke but hey we do it in style

The bad rich

God's flying in for your trial

This whole damn world can fall apart

You'll be ok follow your heart

You're in harms way

I'm right behind

Now say youre mine

Fly high

What's real can't die

You only get what you give

Just dont be afraid to leave

Health insurance rip off lying FDA big bankers buying

Run to your mansions

Come around

We'll kick your ass in!

Don't let go

One dance left

No one with a brain is believing

It's so sad you lost the meaning

Never knew it anyway

Human natures so predictable

I'm a fool to do your dirty work whoa, whoa

Rollin, rollin, rollin on the river.

Cleaned a lot of plates in memphis,

Pumped a lot of pain down in new orleans,

But I never saw the good side of the city,

til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen.

Chorus

Rollin, rollin, rollin on the river.

If you come down to the river,

Bet you gonna find some people who live.

You dont have to worry cause you have no money,

People on the river are happy to give.

Chorus

Rollin, rollin, rollin on the river.

Rollin, rollin, rollin on the river.

Rollin, rollin, rollin on the river.

You broken my heart, now you leave me.

Tellin' me these crazy things that I don't want to know

I got money in the bank and I'd really like to thank

All the fans, I'd like to thank, thank you really though

'Cause I remember yesterday when I dreamt about the days

When I'd rock on MTV, that'd be really cool

THANK YOU

DIDO

My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why

I got out of bed at all

The morning rain clouds up my window

and I can't see at all

Page 180: Lyrics Book

And even if I could it'd all be grey,

but your picture on my wall

It reminds me that it's not so bad,

it's not so bad

I drank too much last night, got bills to pay,

my head just feels in pain

I missed the bus and there'll be hell today,

I'm late for work again

And even if I'm there, they'll all imply

that I might not last the day

And then you call me and it's not so bad,

it's not so bad and

I want to thank you

for giving me the best day of my life

Oh just to be with you

is having the best day of my life

Push the door, I'm home at last

and I'm soaking through and through

Then you hand me a towel

and all I see is you

And even if my house falls down,

I wouldn't have a clue

Page 181: Lyrics Book

Because you're near me and

I want to thank you

for giving me the best day of my life

Oh just to be with you

is having the best day of my life

ARE WE HUMAN

THE KILLERS

I did my best to notice, when the call came down the line

Up to the platform of surrender, I was brought but I was kind

And sometimes I get nervous when I see an open door

Close your eyes, clear your heart... and cut the cord

Are we human, or are we dancer

My sign is vital, my hands are cold

And I'm on my knees looking for the answer

Are we human, or are we dancer

Pay my respects to grace and virtue, send my condolences to good

Give my regards to soul and romance, they always did the best they could

Page 182: Lyrics Book

And so long to devotion you taught me everything I know

Wave good bye, wish me well, you gotta let me go

Are we human, or are we dancer

My sign is vital, my hands are cold

And I'm on my knees looking for the answer

Are we human, or are we dancer

Will your system be alright?

When you dream of home tonight

There is no message we're receiving

Let me know, is your heart still beating?

Are we human, or are we dancer

My sign is vital, my hands are cold

And I'm on my knees looking for the answer...

You've gotta let me know

Are we human, or are we dancer

My sign is vital my hands are cold

And I'm on my knees looking for the answer

Are we human... or are we dancer

Are we human, or are we dancer

Are we human, or are we dancer

ONE LAST BREATH

CREED

Please come now I think I'm falling

I'm holding to all I think is safe

It seems I found the road to nowhere

And I'm trying to escape

I yelled back when I heard thunder

But I'm down to one last breath

And with it let me say

Let me say

Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking

That maybe six feet

Ain't so far down

I'm looking down now that it's over

Reflecting on all of my mistakes

I thought I found the road to somewhere

Somewhere in His grace

Page 184: Lyrics Book

I cried out heaven save me

But I'm down to one last breath

And with it let me say

Let me say

Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking

That maybe six feet

Ain't so far down

Sad eyes follow me

But I still believe there's something left for me

So please come stay with me

'Cause I still believe there's something left for you and me

For you and me

For you and me

Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking

Verse 1-

Brother Pele's in the back

Sweet Seena's in the front

Cruising down the freeway

In the hot, hot sun

Suddenly red blue lights

Flash us from behind

Loud voice

"all will please step out onto the line"

Pele breathes words of comfort

Seena just hides her eyes

Policeman taps his shades

Is that a Chevy 69?

Chorus 1-

How bizarre

How bizarre

How bizarre

Verse 2-

Page 186: Lyrics Book

Destination unknown

As we pull in for some gas

A freshly pasted poster

Reveals a smile from the pack

Elephants and acrobats,

Lions next monkey

Pele speaks righteous

Sister Seena says funky

Chorus 1-

How bizarre

How bizarre

How bizarre

Chorus 2-

Ooh baby, (ooh baby)

It's making me crazy, (it's making me crazy)

Everytime I look around

Look around

Everytime I look around

It's in my face

Verse 3-

Page 187: Lyrics Book

Ringmaster steps up

Says the elephants left town

People jump and jive

And the clowns inch back around

T.V. news and cameras

There's choppers in the sky

Marines, police, reporters

Ask the where, for and why

Pele yells "we're outta here"

Seena says "right on"

Make your moves and starting grooves

Before they knew we're gone

Jump into the Chevy

Headed for big lights,

Want to know the rest

Hey, buy the rights,

Chorus 1-

How bizarre

How bizarre

How bizarre

Ooh baby, (ooh baby)

HOW YOU REMIND ME

NICKLEBACK

Never made it as a wise man

I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'

Tired of livin' like a blind man

I'm sick inside without a sense of feelin

And this is how you remind me

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry

I was waiting on a different story

This time I'm mistaken

For handing you a heart worth breakin'

I've been wrong, I've been down

To the bottom of every bottle

Despite words in my head

Scream "Are we having fun yet?"

Page 190: Lyrics Book

Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no

It's not like you didn't know that

I said I love you and I swear I still do

It must have been so bad

Cause living with me must have damn near killed you

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry

I was waiting on a different story

This time I'm mistaken

For handing you a heart worth breakin'

I've been wrong, I've been down

To the bottom of every bottle

Despite words in my head

Scream "Are we having fun yet?"

Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no

Never made is as a wise man

I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing

And this is how you remind me

This is how you remind me

ROCKSTAR

NICKLEBACK

I'm through with standin' in lines to clubs I'll never get in

It's like the bottom of the ninth and I'm never gonna win

This life hasn't turned out

Quite the way I want it to be

(Tell me what you want)

Page 192: Lyrics Book

I want a brand new house on an episode of Cribs

And a bathroom I can play baseball in

And a king size tub

Big enough for ten plus me

(Yeah, so what you need?)

I need a a credit card that's got no limit

And a big black jet with a bedroom in it

Gonna join the mile high club

At thirty-seven thousand feet

(Been there, done that)

I want a new tour bus full of old guitars

My own star on Hollywood Boulevard

Somewhere between Cher

And James Dean is fine for me

(So how you gonna do it?)

I'm gonna trade this life

For fortune and fame

I'd even cut my hair

And change my name

'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars

Page 193: Lyrics Book

And live in hilltop houses, drivin' fifteen cars

The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat

And we'll hang out in the coolest bars

In the VIP with the movie stars

Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there

Every Playboy bunny with her bleach blond hair

And well, hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar

Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar

I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels

Hire eight body guards that love to beat up assholes

Sign a couple autographs

So I can eat my meals for free

(I'll have the quesadilla, ha, ha)

I'm gonna dress my ass with the latest fashion

Get a front door key to the Playboy mansion

Gonna date a centerfold that loves

To blow my money for me

(So how you gonna do it?)

I'm gonna trade this life

Page 194: Lyrics Book

For fortune and fame

I'd even cut my hair

And change my name

'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars

And live in hilltop houses, drivin' fifteen cars

The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat

And we'll hang out in the coolest bars

In the VIP with the movie stars

Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there

Every Playboy bunny with her bleach blond hair

And we'll hide out in the private rooms

With the latest dictionary of today's who's who

They'll get you anything with that evil smile

Everybody's got a drug dealer on speed dial

Well, hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar

I'm gonna sing those songs that offend the censors

Gonna pop my pills from a Pez dispenser

Get washed-up singers writin' all my songs

Lipsynk 'em every night so I don't get 'em wrong

Page 195: Lyrics Book

Well, we all just wanna be big rockstars

And live in hilltop houses, drivin' fifteen cars

The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat

And we'll hang out in the coolest bars

In the VIP with the movie stars

Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there

Every Playboy bunny with her bleach blond hair

And we'll hide out in the private rooms

With the latest dictionary of today's who's who

They'll get you anything with that evil smile

Everybody's got a drug dealer on speed dial

Well, hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar

Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar

EVERY MORNING

SUGAR RAY

Every morning there's a halo hangin

from the corner of my girlfriend's four post bed

Page 196: Lyrics Book

I know it's not mine but I'll see if I can use it for

the weekend or a one-night stand

Couldn't understand

How to work it out

Once again as predicted left my broken heart open

and you ripped it out

Something's got me reeling

Stopped me from believing

Turn me around again

Said that we can do it

You know I wanna do it again

(Sugar Ray say)

Oh...........

(Every Morning)

Oh................

(Every Morning when I wake up)

(Shut the door baby, don't say a word)

Oh.......

(She always rights the wrong, she always rights, she always rights)

(Shut the door baby, Shut the door baby)

Every Morning there's a heartache hanging

from the corner of my girlfriend's four-post bed

I know it's not mine and I know she thinks she loves me

but I never can believe what she said

Something so deceiving

Page 197: Lyrics Book

When you stop believing

Turn me around again

Said we couldn't do it

You know I wanna do it again

Oh...........

Oh..................

(Every Morning when I wake up)

(Shut the door baby, don't say a word)

Oh...........

She always rights the wrong

For me

Baby

She always rights the wrong

For me

Every Morning there's a halo hanging

from the corner of my girlfriend's four-post bed

I know it's not mine but I'll see if I can use it for

the weekend or a one-night stand

(Shut the door baby, don't say a word)

SOMEDAY

SUGAR RAY

Someday

When my life has passed me by

I'll lay around and wonder why you were always there for me

One way

In the eyes of a passerby

I'll look around for another try

And'll fade away

[Chorus]

Just close your eyes and I'll take you there

This place is warm without a care

We'll take a swim in the deep blue sea

Page 199: Lyrics Book

I go to leave as you reach for me

Some say

Better things will come our way

No matter what they try to say you were always there for me

Someway

When the sun begins to shine

I hear a song from another time

And'll fade away

And'll fade away

[Chorus]

So far, so long, so far away

So far, so long, so far away (away, away)

Someday

When my life has passed me by

I'll lay around and wonder why you were always there for me

One way

In the eyes of a passerby

I'll look around for another try

And'll fade away

And'll fade away

And'll fade away

And'll fade away

And'll fade away

And'll fade away

(someday)
