Pink Floyd - Jugband Blues It's awfully considerate of you to think of me here And I'm much obliged to you for making it clear That's I'm not here. And I never knew that we could be so thick And I never knew that the moon could be so blue And I'm greatful that you threw away my old shoes And brought me here instead dressed in red And I'm wondering who could be writing this song. I don't care if the sun don't shine And I don't care if nothing is mine And I don't care if I'm nervous with you I'll do my loving in the winter. And the sea isn't green And I love queen And what exactly is a dream And what exactly is a joke.
Celluliod Heroes - The Kinks Everybody's a dreamer and everybod's a star, And everybody's in movies it doesn't matter who you are. There are stars in every city, I every house and on every street, And if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard Their names are written in concrete! Don't step on Greta Garbo as you walk down the Boulevard, She looks so weak and fragile that's whe she tried to be so hard But they turned her into a princess And they sat her on a throne, But she turned her back on stardom, Because she wanted to be alone. You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard, Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly heard of, People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame, Some who succeeded and some suffered in vain. Rudolph Valentino, looks very much alive, And he looks up lady dresses as they sadly pass him by. Avoid stepping on Bela Lugosi 'Cos he's liable to turn and bite, But stand close by Bette Davis Because hers was such a lonely life. If you covered him with garbage, George Sanders would still have style, And if you stamped on Mickey Rooney He would still turn round and smile, But please don't tread on dearest Marliyn 'Cos she's not very tough, She should have been made of iron or steel. But she was only made of flesh and blood. You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard, Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly heard of People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame, Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain. Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star And everybody's in show biz, it doesn't matter who you are. And those who are successful, Be always on your guard, Success walks hand in hand with failure along Along Hollywood Boulevard I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show, A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes. Because celluliod heroes never feel any pain And celluloid heroes never die. You can see all the stars as you walk along Hollywood Boulevard, Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of, People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame, Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain. Oh celluloid heroes never feel any pain Oh celluloid heroes never really die. I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show, A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes, Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain And celluloid heroes never eally die.
"A Synonym For Acquiesce" by Bayside Empty fields move me so much more then rooms filled up with friends. The way the trees look dead reminds me that there's more to life then living. Maybe giving up's not bad, but part of letting go of you. If I surrender to this feeling maybe all the aches and pains will go and I can close my eyes, never again to have them open till I bleed out all I've been. I don't want to be alone no more, no more Take this razor, sign your name across my wrists so everyone will know who left me like this Empty fields move me so much more then rooms filled up with friends. The way the trees look dead reminds that there's more to life then living. Maybe giving up's not bad, but part of letting go of you. So take this razor, sign your name across my wrists so everyone will know who left me like this. Sew me up, my scars run deep A reminder not to forget the times that we've had. I'll never waste another second. I have wasted so much time and I have wasted, wasted so much time so much time Take this razor, sign your name across my wrists so everyone will know who left me like this. Sew me up, my scars run deep A reminder not to forget the times that we've had.
God damn some1 beat me to "It's Alright Ma (Im Only Bleeding)"-Bob Dylan. That song truly captures the power that lyrics can have in a song.
Run of the Mill, by George Harrison, off of his masterpiece of an album, "All Things Must Pass" Everyone has choice When to and not to raise their voices It's you that decides Which way will you turn While feeling that our love's not your concern It's you that decides No one around you Will carry the blame for you No one around you Will love you today and throw it all away Tomorrow when you rise Another day for you to realize me Or send me down again As the days stand up on end You've got me wondering how I lost your friendship But I see it in your eyes Though I'm beside you I can't carry the lame for you I may decide to Get out with your blessing Where I'll carry on guessing How high will you leap Will you make enough for you to reap it? Only you'll arrive At your own made end With no one but yourself to be offended It's you that decides ~Layla
and "The Day the World Gets Round" off of George's album "Living in the Material World" The day the world gets 'round to understanding where it is, Using all it's found, to help each other, hand in hand The day the world gets 'round to understanding where it's gone Losing so much ground killing each other, hand in hand Such foolishness in man I want no part of their plan - OH NO If you're the destructive kind Now I'm working from day to day As I don't want to be like you I look for the pure of heart And the ones that have made a start, But Lord, there are just a few who bow before you, in silence they pray, Oh how they pray for the day the world gets 'round Using all they've found To help each other, hand in hand The Day The World Gets 'Round ~Layla
Now, if you're feeling kinda low 'bout the dues you've been paying; Futures coming much too slow, And you wanna run but somehow you just keep on staying, Can't decide on which way to go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Chorus :- I understand about indecision, But I don't care if I get behind. People living in competition; All I want is to have my peace of mind. Yeah. O-o-oh. Now you're climbing to the top of the company ladder, Hope it doesn't take to long. Can't you see there'll come a day when it won't matter, Come a day when you'll be gone. Chorus Take a look ahead. Take a look ahead. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. [Guitar Solo] Now everybody's got advice they just keep on giving. Doesnt mean too much to me. Lots of people have to make-believe they're living, Can't decide who they should be. Chorus Take a look ahead. Take a look ahead. Look ahead
