ST#187669: Lyrics Post
Elton John- Your Song
It's a little bit funny this feeling inside I'm not one of those who can easily hide I don't have much money but boy if I did I'd buy a big house where we both could live If I was a sculptor, but then again, no Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show I know it's not much but it's the best I can do My gift is my song and this one's for you And you can tell everybody this is your song It may be quite simple but now that it's done I hope you don't mind I hope you don't mind that I put down in words How wonderful life is while you're in the world I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song It's for people like you that keep it turned on So excuse me forgetting but these things I do You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue Anyway the thing is what I really mean Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen me so gay! |

Zwan--Mary Star of the Sea
rooms full of salt
fault my pluck and a poets chime so far, ever far little stars that burn the holes in my soul and everything just feels like rain the road we're on, the things we crave and everything just feels like rain if i should sleep, what's left to dream? drift as i dive find the deep out of reach of all light far, ever far restless tides along the changing shore and everything just feels like rain the road we're on, the things we crave and everything just feels like rain if i should sleep, what's left to dream? when everything feels like rain |

These are the best lyrics...
Lightning Seeds - Pure night time slows, raindrops splash rainbows perhaps someone you know, could sparkle and shine as daydreams slide to colour from shadow picture the moonglow, that dazzles my eyes and I love you just lying smiling in the dark shooting stars around your heart dreams come bouncing in your head pure and simple everytime now you're crying in your sleep i wish you'd never learnt to weep don't sell the dreams you should be keeping pure and simple everytime dreams of sights, of sleigh rides in seasons where feelings not reasons, can make you decide as leaves pour down, splash autumn on gardens as colder nights harden, their moonlit delights and I love you just lying smiling in the dark shooting stars around your heart dreams come bouncing in your head pure and simple everytime now you're crying in your sleep i wish you'd never learnt to weep don't sell the dreams you should be keeping pure and simple everytime look at me with starry eyes push me up to starry skies there's stardust in my head pure and simple everytime fresh and deep as oceans new shiver at the sight of you i'll sing a softer tune pure and simple over you if love's the truth then look no lies and let me swim around your eyes I've found a place I'll never leave shut my mouth and just believe love is the truth I realize not a stream of pretty lies to use us up and waste our time lying smiling in the dark shooting stars around your heart dreams come bouncing in your head pure and simple everytime now you're crying in your sleep i wish you'd never learnt to weep don't sell the dreams you should be keeping pure and simple everytime look at me with starry eyes push me up to starry skies there's stardust in my head pure and simple everytime fresh and deep as oceans new shiver at the sight of you I'll sing a softer tune pure and simple over you pure and simple just for you |

You're just a little girl with blue eyes. Everybody looks at you (well, it's your day) and you're stepping from the black car but you'll be getting back in soon (and on your way). Little girl with blue eyes, there's a hole in your heart. And one between your legs. You've never had to wonder which one he's going to fill. In spite of what he said. You'll never get away, hey you'll give it up one day come what may. Dad's not got a shotgun but his look's enough to murder you (see what you've done) and forget about the paintings 'cos you'd better get the washing done (something's wrong). Little girl with blue eyes, there's a hole in your heart. And one between your legs. You've never had to wonder which one he's going to fill. In spite of what he said. You'll never get away, hey you'll give it up one day come what may. Face down on the pavement, chalk lines round your little hands (hit and run) and now a mother sits in silence in a darkness she can't understand (where you've gone). Little girl, there's a hole in your heart. And one between your legs. You've never had to wonder which one he's going to fill. In spite of what he said. You'll never get away, hey you'll give it up one day come what may.

last one i proomise
Dogs are everywhere, almost everywhere that I go. They have too much and then they have too much again, and then more. They leave their scent behind them everywhere they go. Oh dogs are everywhere that I go. Oh dogs are everywhere, almost everywhere, that I go. They have too much and then they have too much again and then more. They leave their scent behind them everywhere they go. Oh dogs are everywhere yes dogs are everywhere, yes dogs are everywhere that I go. They always wag their tails at all the pretty girls and older women. They find their own way in then they rip up everything that I believe in. Sometimes I have to wonder about the dog in me. Oh dogs are everywhere yes dogs are everywhere yes dogs are everywhere that I go. They get down on all fours when you walk through the door. They whine and beg around your feet just like a dog for something sweet. They sink their teeth in you, see them tear you in two. Remains are buried out of doors. Oh, I want some more. I want some more. Sometimes I have to wonder about the dog in me. Oh dogs are everywhere yes dogs are everywhere oh dogs are everywhere that i go. Sometimes I have to wonder about the dog in me, oh dogs are everywhere yes dogs are everywhere yes dogs are everywhere that i go. That I go. That I go. That I go. Everywhere. Everywhere. Everywhere. Everywhere. Dogs are everywhere.

Went out tiger hunting with his elephant and gun
In case of accidents he always took his mom All-American bullet-headed saxon mother's son All the children sing! Hey, Bungalo Bill, what did you kill, Bungalo Bill? Hey, Bungalo Bill, what did you kill, Bungalo Bill? Deep in the jungle where the mighty tiger lies Bill and his elephants were taken by surprise So Captain Marvel zapped him right between the eyes-sah! All the children sing! Hey, Bungalo Bill, what did you kill, Bungalo Bill? Hey, Bungalo Bill, what did you kill, Bungalo Bill? The children asked him if to kill was not a sin 'Not when he looked so fierce,' his mommy butted in 'If looks could kill it would have been us instead of him' All the children sing! Hey, Bungalo Bill, what did you kill, Bungalo Bill? Hey, Bungalo Bill, what did you kill, Bungalo Bill? |

Papa M - Roses in the Snow
I was singing like a bird from my porch, just to hear my own voice, echo in the canyon when she appeared, before me protected from the cold ringing with the echo in her heart she walked up to the porch and I sang a good bit further until we both sat there in silence I asked her to my living room a place where we can warm our bones she said, "but I am warmed by the singing" "and I can hear my husbandman returning from his labor and I have no food on the table" as quick as she came earlier she went back to the forest with a trail of roses behind her it snowed for many weeks until I couldn't see the forest and the blush had faded from the roses and while it dropped, I worked a lot to gather wood, and keep it hot and clear the porch off for singing it was brighter than the other nights the snow was filled with moonlight there was not a sound in the canyon so I sang softly, o my old song building for a time so long until my echo traveled through the forest and there she was, standing there the moonlight in her auburn hair completely protected from the cold and all about her, in the snow ruby red, and black as coal roses had blossomed all around her |

"Cooling"- Tori Amos
Maybe I didn't like to hear But I still can't believe Speed Racer is dead So then I thought I'd make some plans But fire thought she'd really rather be water instead And Peggy got a message for me From Jesus And I've heard every word that you have said And I know I have been driven like the snow This is cooling Faster than I can This is cooling Faster than I can But do I hate what she is But do I want to be her And don't we love something fresh Anything new, virgin Woman you got too many brambles Hiding under these bushes Woman you got too many brambles But I always liked a good storm I'm always good for a storm So then love walked up to like And said I know that you don't like me much Let's go for a ride This ocean is wrapped around that pineapple tree And is your place in heaven Worth giving up these kisses These, these kisses And Peggy got a message for me From Jesus And I've heard every word that you have said And I know I have been driven like the snow, but This is cooling Faster than I can Hey yes, faster than I can Hey, this is cooling This is cooling... |

Levitz (with birds), Grandaddy
Birds come into town to my house and I don't like it when they leave they're there mainly in the morning no I don't like it when they go I just want them to comfortable and I think they want me to be comfortable too my windows big to welcome to come resting by it Birds come from around to my house they eat the bugs in the pool when it's clean they might never come back I should just leave it alone I just want them to comfortable and I think they want me to be comfortable too my windows big to welcome to come resting by it wrong to say that I am giving up right to say that I ain't showing up I've got pictures at my home and doors that transform me alone, sunny days should leave a message on my phone I don't think I'm gonna miss you much for I've got dials and knobs soft to the touch all your lectures will become converted into static hum, sunny days should leave a message on my phone Oh to sleep per chance to dream to live again those joyous scenes the laughter and the follies that are locked away inside my head |

The state i am in, belle and sebastian
I was surprised, I was happy for a day in 1975 I was puzzled by a dream, stayed with me all day in 1995 My brother had confessed that he was gay It took the heat off me for a while He stood up with a sailor friend Made it known upon my sisters wedding day I got married in a rush to save a kid from being deported Now she's in love I was so touched, I was moved to kick the crutches From my crippled friend She was not impressed that I cured her on the Sabbath So I went to confess When she saw the funny side, we introduced my child bride To whisky and gin The priest in the booth had a photographic memory For all he had heard He took all of my sins and he wrote a pocket novel called "The State I Am In" So I gave myself to God There was a pregnant pause before he said ok Now I spend my day turning tables round In Marks & Spencer's They don't seem to mind I gave myself to sin And I've been there and back again I gave myself to Providence The state that I am in Oh love of mine, would you condescend to help me I am stupid and blind Desperation is the Devil's work, it is the folly of a boys empty mind Now I'm feeling dangerous, riding on city buses for a hobby is sad Lead me to a living end I promised that I'd entertain my crippled friend My crippled friend |

You kill me with your smelly fingers
Your smelly fingers from the sex you had on Christmas Day And now you say you're feeling guilty You're feeling guilty 'cos your god was shining on your face You go to church and light a candle And then you're blinded by the light from the golden pews The devil's snapping at your toes now Because the angels can't be bothered to give to you They're selling jesus again They're selling jesus again They want your soul and your money your blood and your votes They're selling jesus again Selling love to you - selling love You're buying this you're buying that now You're wishing all the money in the world belonged to you You're crucified upon you're own cross now You're givin' money to the white men in the white limo That kind of god is always man-made They made him up then wrote a book to keep you on your kness They get their theories from the same place Then build a church if there's some money left From lying on the beach They're selling jesus again They're selling jesus again They want your soul and your money your blood and your votes They're selling jesus again Selling love to you - selling love They're selling jesus again They're selling jesus again They want your soul and your money your blood and your votes They're selling jesus again Selling love to you - selling love

I see your shadow on the street now I hear you push through the rusty gate Click of your heels on the concrete Waiting for a knock coming way too late It's been an age since I've seen ya Countdown as the weeks trickle into days So you come in and put your bags down I know there's something in the air How can I do this to you right now If you're over there when I need you here My happiness is slowly creeping back Now you're at home If it ever starts sinking in It must be when you pack up and go It seems an age since I've seen you Countdown as the weeks trickle into days I hope that time hasnt changed you All I really want is for you to stay So you come in and put your bags down I know there's something in the air How can I do this to you right now If you're ver there when I need you here My happiness is slowly creeping back Now you're at home If it ever starts sinking in Must be when you pack up and go I know I know I know what's inside I know I know I know what's inside I know I know I know what's inside I know I know I know what's inside If you're over there when I need you here My happiness is slowly creeping back Now you're at home If it ever starts sinking in It must be when you pack up and go My happiness is slowly creeping back Now you're at home If it ever starts sinkind in It must be when you pack up and go |

A bond of trust
has been abused something of value may be lost give up your job squander your cash - be rash just hold on to your friends There are more than enough to fight and oppose why waste good time fighting the people you like who would fall defending your name don't feel so ashamed to have freinds But now you only call me when you're feeling depressed when you feel happy I'm so far from your mind my patience is stretched my loyalty vexed you're losing all of your friends Hold on to your friends hold on to your friends resist - or move on be mad, be rash smoke and explode sell all of your clothes just bear in mind: there just might come a time when you need some friends |

No, the cabs here, they can't run down to your house
Sometimes I'll sit and wish I were somewhere else So let's dim the daylights for us sweethearts that we are Sometimes I find myself still lying in your arms All the sweethearts of the world Are out dancing in the places Where me and all my friends go to hide our faces Avenues run one way Streets they run the same Something in the air here Still keeps me away No, the cabs here, they can't take me to your house I get directions and pretend I was somewhere else All the sweethearts of the world are out littering the bars And I am still avenues from any place you are You know avenues run one way The streets they run the same It's going to take a lot of shit for me To not stay away

Holy cow! I think I've got one here
Now just what am I s'posed to do? I've got a number of irrational fears That I'd like to share with you First, there's rules about old goats like me Hangin' 'round with chicks like you -but I do like you- And another one: you say "like" too much But I'm shakin' at your touch I like you way too much My baby, I'm afraid I'm falling for you 'n I'd do 'bout anything to get the hell out alive Or maybe I would rather settle down with you Holy moly, baby, wouldn't you know it? Just as I was bustin' loose I gotta go turn in my rock star card and get fat and old with you 'cuz I'm a burning a candle you're a gentle month teaching me to lick a little bit kinder And I do like you - you're the lucky one No! I'm the lucky one Holy Sweet goddamn! You left your cello in the basement I admired the glowing the stars and tried to play a tune' I can't believe how bad I suck, it's true What could you possibly see in little ol' 3-chord me? But it's true - you like me, I like you too I'm ready, let's do it baby |
