New for 2003: LYRICS O' YR LIFE v 3.0

Page: (1)2 3 4 5 6... 9

14:28 / 02.01.03

Fifteen long years on a losing streak
and a lot of bodies unburied
There comes a time you cannot turn the other cheek
and you have got to ride on the ferry
past the battered old bodies of dead dead dreamers
the tethered and fettered and deskbound schemers
past the punks and the drunks and the bad guitar players
and the dewy-eyed teenage dragonslayers
who come to this place

And you can say I
I just want to work with you
To do the things we know we have to do
Ever hopeful and ever blue
We'll do the things we know we have to do
And though we all know, deep down in our hearts
that someday this will all fall apart
For right now—
let's just be heroes.

A thought for the New Year, thanks to David Baerwald.

The Return Of Rothkoid

22:14 / 02.01.03

Though I have a broken heart
I'm too busy to be heartbroken
There's a lot of things that need to be done
Lord I have a broken heart

Though I have a broken dream
I'm too busy to be dreaming of you
There's a lot of things that I've gotta do
Lord I have a broken dream

And I've wasted all my time
I've gotta drink you right off of my mind
I've been told that this will heal given time
Lord I have a broken heart

And I'm crying all the time
I have to keep it covered up with a smile
And I'll keep on moving on for a while
Lord I have a broken heart

Broken Heart - Spiritualized.

23:17 / 02.01.03

In line I long to be
Inside your company
Good things are coming our way
I know they always have

In time, a far away
place that we can go I know we will someday
On our own,
until then I will lay inside
Rest on a rising tide

Don’t be so selfless
I’ll wait on the same lines as you
Can’t be so helpless
I'll say what I'm going to do

Good things are coming our way
Good things are coming, I’ll wait

In line, I long to be
Inside your company
I'll wait 'till I have it at last[?]
Maybe you know
We’ll go wherever you wanted to
I’m through wishing I was somewhere else now
Drive along to escape
Good things are coming

Don’t be so selfless
I’ll wait on the same lines as you
Can’t be so helpless
I'll say what I'm going to do

Good things are coming our way
Good things are coming, I’ll wait
I'll wait 'till I have it at last[?]

Drive along to our escape
Drive along to our escape

Good things are coming, good things are coming our way
Good things are coming, good things are coming our way
Good things are coming, good things are coming our way

our way

Our Way.

Why they wanna see my spine mommy?
Why they wanna see my spine?
It's gonna hurt again mommy
Much worse than last time
Am I gonna see God, mommy?
Am I gonna die?
It really hurts mommy!
Am I gonna die?
Smile on mighty Jesus
Spinal Meningitis got me down

I'm feelin' greasy mommy
Please don't let me die
Stinky vaseline mommy!
Please don't let me die
Am I gonna see God, mommy?
Am I gonna die?
It really hurts mommy!
Am I gonna die?
Smile on mighty Jesus
Spinal Meningitis got me down

Dead bull with the life from the low
I’ll be massive
Conquistador
Give me soul and show me the door
Metal heavy, soft at the core
Gimme toro, gimme some more

Pressurize, neutralize
Deep fried, gimme some more

Space flunky, four on the floor
Fortified with the liqour store
This one's down, gimme some more
Gimme toro, gimme some more

Shrunken head I love to adore
B-movie, gimme some gore
Gimme toro, gimme some more
B-movie, gimme some gore

Gimme toro, gimme some more

11:45 / 04.01.03

And so we've had another night
of poetry and poses
And each man knows he'll be alone
when the sacred gin mill closes

And so we'll drink the final glass
each to his joy or sorrow
And hope the numbing drunk will last
'til opening tomorrow

And when we stumble back again
like paralytic dancers
Each knows the questions he will ask
and each man knows the answers

And so we'll drink the final drink
that cuts the brain in sections
Where answers never signify
and there aren't any questions

I broke my heart the other day
it'll mend again tomorrow
If I'd been drunk when I was born
I'd be ignorant of sorrow

And so we'll drink the final toast
that never can be spoken
Here's to the heart that's wise enough
to know when it's better off broken

Dave Van Ronk, Last Call (in his own words "the result of an all-night shop-talk-cum-bull-session with Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell")

12:45 / 04.01.03

Always lived my life alone,
Been searching for the place called home.
I know that I've been cold as ice,
Ignored the dreams, too many lies.
Somewhere deep inside,
Somewhere deep inside me,
I found the child I used to be
And I know that it's not too late
Never too late

18:14 / 04.01.03

(okay, I just got done digging my car out and I can't really feel my fingers. it wasn't fifteen feet, but it sure as hell seemed like it)

where is mona?
she's long gone
where is mary?
she's taken her along
but they haven't put their mittens on
and there's fifteen feet of pure white snow?

where is michael?
where is mark?
where is mathew
now it's getting dark?
where is john? they are all out back
under fifteen feet of pure white snow
would you please put down that telephone
we're under fifteen feet of pure white snow

i waved to my neighbour
my neighbour waved to me
but my neighbour
is my enemy
i kept waving my arms
till i could not see
under fifteen feet of pure white snow

is anybody
out there please?
it's too quiet in here
and i'm beginning to freeze
i've got icicles hanging
from my knees
under fifteen feet of pure white snow

is there anybody here who feels this low?
under fifteen feet of pure white snow

raise your hands up to the sky
raise your hands up to the sky
raise your hands up to the sky
is it any wonder?
oh my lord oh my lord
oh my lord oh my lord

doctor, doctor
i'm going mad
this is the worst day
i've ever had
i can't remember
ever feeling this bad
under fifteen feet of pure white snow
where's my nurse
i need some healing
i've been paralysed
by a lack of feeling
i can't even find
anything worth stealing
under fifteen feet of pure white snow

is there anyone else here who doesn't know?
we're under fifteen feet of pure white snow

raise your hands up to the sky
raise your hands up to the sky
raise your hands up to the sky
is it any wonder?
oh my lord oh my lord
oh my lord oh my lord
save yourself! help yourself!
save yourself! help yourself!
save yourself! help yourself!
save yourself! help yourself!

19:52 / 04.01.03

Took a look down a westbound road,
right away I made my choice
Headed out to my big two-wheeler,
I was tired of my own voice
Took a bead on the northern plains
and just rolled that power on

Twelve hours out of Mackinaw City
stopped in a bar to have a brew
Met a girl and we had a few drinks
and I told her what I'd decided to do
She looked out the window a long long moment
then she looked into my eyes
She didn't have to say a thing,
I knew what she was thinkin'

Roll, roll me away,
won't you roll me away tonight
I too am lost, I feel double-crossed
and I'm sick of what's wrong and what's right
We never even said a word,
we just walked out and got on that bike
And we rolled
And we rolled clean out of sight

We rolled across the high plains
Deep into the mountains
Felt so good to me
Finally feelin' free

Somewhere along a high road
The air began to turn cold
She said she missed her home
I headed on alone

Stood alone on a mountain top,
starin' out at the Great Divide
I could go east, I could go west,
it was all up to me to decide
Just then I saw a young hawk flyin'
and my soul began to rise
And pretty soon
My heart was singin'

Roll, roll me away,
I'm gonna roll me away tonight
Gotta keep rollin, gotta keep ridin',
keep searchin' till I find what's right
And as the sunset faded
I spoke to the faintest first starlight
And I said next time
Next time
We'll get it right

Foreign Affair - Tom Waits

when travelling abroad in the continental style
it's my belief one must attempt to be discreet
and subsequently bear in mind your transient position
allows you a perspective that's unique
though you'll find your itinerary's a blessing and a curse
your wanderlust won't let you settle down
and you'll wonder how you ever fathomed that you'd be content
to stay within the city limits of a small midwestern town

most vagabonds i knowed don't ever want to find the culprit
that remains the object of their long relentless quest
the obsession's in the chasing and not the apprehending
the pursuit you see and never the arrest

without fear of contradiction bon voyage is always hollered
in conjunction with a handkerchief from shore
by a girl that drives a rambler and furthermore
is overly concerned that she won't see him anymore

planes and trains and boats and buses
characteristically evoke a common attitude of blue
unless you have a suitcase and a ticket and a passport
and the cargo that they're carrying is you

a foreign affair juxtaposed with a stateside
and domestically approved romantic fancy
is mysteriously attractive due to circumstances knowing
it will only be parlayed into a memory

My theme for the new year.

God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
Put it in the soul of everyone
Do you know what you want? You don't know for sure
You don't feel right, you can't find a cure
And you're gettin' less than what you're lookin' for

[Verse]
You don't have money or a fancy car
And you're tired of wishin' on a falling star
You gotta put your faith in a loud guitar

[Chorus]
God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to everyone (oh yeah)
God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
Put it in the soul of everyone

[Verse]
Now listen
If you wanna be a singer, or play guitar
Man, you gotta sweat or you won't get far
Cause it's never too late to work nine-to-five

You can take a stand, or you can compromise
You can work real hard or just fantasize
But you don't start livin' till you realize (I gotta tell ya)

[Chorus]
God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to everyone
God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
Put it in the soul

[Break]

God gave rock and roll to you (to everyone he gave the song to be sung)
Gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to everyone

God gave rock and roll to you (to everyone he gave the song to be sung)
Gave rock and roll to you, saved rock and roll for everyone
Saved rock and roll

chorus repeats out...

God bless Kiss.

The best thing is that the full title informs you that it's "Part II" of that song. Genius.

13:13 / 06.01.03

Ohh, ohh, uhh, OOOH
Ohh, ohh..

[Missy]
Boy I'ma make you love me, make you want me
And I'ma give you some attention, tonight
Now follow my intuitions, what you're wishin
See I'ma keep you all night, for a long time
Just start countin the ways

[Chorus]
Break me off, show me what you got
Cause I don't want, no one minute man
Break me off, show me what you got
Cause I don't want, no one minute man
Break me off, show me what you got
Cause I don't want, no one minute man
Break me off, show me what you got
Cause I don't want, no..

[Missy]
Tonight I'ma give it to you, throw it to you
I want you to come prepared, ohhh yeah (oh yes)
Boy it's been a long time, a crazy long time
And I don't want no minute man, and that's real
Give it to me some more

Regrettable Juvenilia

10:58 / 07.01.03

It's time to set yo' clocks back bout as long as you can,
I stop daylight, Ludacris the maintenance man!
Get your oil changed, I check fluids and transmission
You one minute fools, you wonder why y'all missing
On the back of milk cartons and there's no reward
No regard, close but it's no cigar...

trip to heave and ho,
up down, to and fro'
you have no word
trip, trip to a dream dragon
hide your wings in a ghost tower
sails cackling at every plate we break
cracked by scattered needles
the little minute gong
coughs and clears his throat
madam you see before you stand
hey ho, never be still
the old original favorite grand
grasshoppers green Herbarian band
and the tune they play is 'In Us Confide'

so trip to heave and ho,
up down, to and fro'
you have no word
please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!

isn't it good to be lost in the wood?
isn't it bad so quiet there, in the wood?

meant even less to me than I thought
with a honey plough of yellow prickly seeds
clover honey pots and mystic shining feed...

well, the madcap laughed at the man on the border
hey ho, huff the Talbot
"Cheat!" he cried shouting kangaroo
it's true in their tree they cried
please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!

the madcap laughed at the man on the border
hey ho, huff the Talbot
the winds they blew and the leaves did wag
they'll never put me in their bag
the seas will reach and always seep
so high you go, so low you creep
the wind it blows in tropical heat
the drones they throng on mossy seats
the squeaking door will always squeak
two up, two down we'll never meet
so merrily trip forgo my side
please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!

18:09 / 07.01.03

You'll be given love
You'll be taken care of
You'll be given love
You have to trust it

Maybe not from the sources
you've poured yours
into

Maybe not
from the directions
you are
staring at

twist your head around
It's all around you
All is full of love
All around you

All is full of love
You just aint receiving
All is full of love
Your phone is off the hook
All is full of love
Your doors are all shut
All is full of love

bjork with, yes, you guessed it, "all is full of love" - just wanted to put that one out for 2003

In a dream my memory is stored

V old but aint a bit of angst from the early nineties still relevant?

21:29 / 07.01.03

Now the sun's fading faster, we're ready to go
there's a skirt in the bedroom that's pleasantly low
And the loons on the moor, the fish in the flow
And my friends, my friends still will whisper hello
We all know what we know, it's a hard swath to mow
when you think like a hermit you forget what you know

And you were always on my mind...

17:39 / 08.01.03

You are thirty-eight.
Your job is to tell fourteen-year-old boys what to think is cool.

Are you laughing?

They are.

No anger, no guilt & no sorrow: it sounds unlikely, I know, but tomorrow you will wake up to find that your whole life has changed. Although nothing looks different a revolution took place.
I love the way you do it, I love the way you put them on.
You know the answers but you get it wrong. (Just to confuse things).

Why did it seem so difficult to realise a simple truth?
The revolution begins & ends with you.
Now all the breakdowns & nightmares look small.
Now we decided not to die after all.
Because the meek shall inherit absolutely nothing at all.

If you stopped being so feeble you could have so much more.
The answer was here all the time, you see.
Just how I missed it is a mystery to me.
I have waited & waited for this day to arrive.
The revolution was televised.
Now it's over, bye bye.

life is bigger
it's bigger than you
and you are not me
the lengths that I will go to
the distance in your eyes
oh no, I've said too much
I set it up

that's me in the corner
that's me in the spotlight
losing my religion
trying to keep up with you
and I don't know if I can do it
oh no I've said too much
I haven't said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Well you say, you know it's such a small, small world
Flying club class back from the Far East
Curled up safe and warm in the big chair
You were flying through the skies of anywhere
Get the courtesy car to the Sheraton
You've got live on-the-spot reports from CNN
Between the ad-breaks
So you think you know what's going on
But you don't

Because you weren't in Kosovo, you weren't there
And you weren't in Waco, no you weren't there
And you weren't in Belfast, you weren't there
And you weren't on the hill so you don't know how it felt
Walking arm in arm through the square
And the banners blazing
And the sun glinting

All this information swirls round and round
Like a shoal of fish in a tank going nowhere
Up and down between the glass walls
So safe in the knowledge they're impenetrable
So you look out at the world and see nothing at all
So go back to sleep
And you'll be woken when the time comes
But you'll never know just what hit you
Or where it came from

Because you weren't in Bradford, no you weren't there
And you weren't on the hill, no you weren't there
And you weren't in my head so you'll never know
Just what happened when the television crews came knocking at the door
How the people told them all to go to hell
Smashed the cameras and threw them away
There were sirens going off, the police coming in
And all that you loved was being swept away
In the rush of the black tide
All done in your name
And you'll never know just what happened
Or how it feels

(New Model Army. As if you couldn't guess.)

woke up in a psychedelic daydream
walked them dogs, don’t you know what I mean?
and sitting here with my medallion
cantaloupe, and liquor by the gallon
all I need is a bottle of beer
French bread, and a very sharp spear
and we’ll try to start this Studebaker
good god!

woke up in a psychedelic daydream
mountain trip, don’t you know what I mean?
who’s in charge here?
that is the question
everybody looked like John Sebastian
jumped in the pool just to be a hero
American ‘52, I ran a zero
it’s time to cook some meat on the street here
good god! don’t you know what I mean?
(don’t you know what I mean?)
don’t you know what I mean?
(don’t you know what I mean?)
don’t you know what I mean, don’t you know what I mean?
aah--ooooooh-oooooooh-oooooooooooooooooooh!

woke up in a psychedelic daydream
fed them goats, don’t you know what I mean?
to be young, and so educated
twenty years later, you finally get it
selfexploration to the middle of the mind
ask many questions to see what you will find
a society, and a life of liesure
good god! don’t you know what I mean?
(don’t you know what I mean?)
don’t you know what I mean?
(don’t you know what I mean?)
don’t you know what I mean, don’t you know what I mean?
aah--ooooooh-oooooooh-oooooooooooooooooooh!

woke up with a bucket on my head
‘think big’ is what the sign said
this vacation spot is very wholesome
suitable for Dick Enberg and Merlon Olson
wrapping fresh fish in a piece of paper
bongo sessions never seem to make the paper
we’re riding on the plane to hell!
good god! don’t you know what I mean?
(don’t you know what he means?)
don’t you know what I mean?
(don’t you know what he means?)
don’t you know what I mean, don’t you know what I mean?
aah--ooooooh-oooooooh-oooooooooooooooooooh!

22:36 / 09.01.03

strike the tent
unpop the paintbox
and pack the carriages
with the flesh freaks of fear
at the beach
we left them shell shocked
lining up the avenue
in view of next year

high steppin'
like a brigade
down the block
don't be shocked
to hear somebody say "wake up doomsday"
it's time to join the big parade

come and march in time with the band
playing loud fighting crowds
to see the matinee (it's tailor made)
because it's gonna be a brighter day

for the seeker of thrills
behind the ferris wheels
there's a man with one foot in the
grave and one foot on a
banana peel

he's an actor of sorts
who sold himself too short
so now he travels door to door
performing 'death of a salesman'

oh my country tears of thee
how the circus makes the world
safe for anarchy
in a cage with an uneasy chair
atop a merry go round
he wears that clown crown

can't you see that you can
come as you are
as you were
if you prefer you can change
(yes it can be arranged)
when you come and join the big parade

but you can leave your bagage
at home don't you pack
don't look back
then you can truly say
'goodbye highway'
that what then and this is nowadays

come on you big shot and enjoy the rain
take a class in pumping blood into
those weathered veins
and i bet you'd still come out as
a teacher's pet

(ice cream and you cause it come to
being watertight scream but you'll
wrote that book you own the
copyright and clown costume
always be a plumber,
i saw it hanging in the closet of
your elbow room with a pipe dream)

if you've had it up to here with
what's real
i'm here to tell you that it's no big deal
because it's not too late

if you hurry up you can
come on and join the big charade

line up shut up clean up and shave
cause right behind you in the back
of the fray
is a blade he's a renegade
turning bullshit into marmalade

don't you know there's gonna be
a heavy price to pay
for pushing all these clouds away
it's bound to be a brighter day
it can't help but be a brighter day

and anyone who had a hat would surely know:
it only rains when you leave it at home,
and all the umbrellas are broke,
oh, save yourself a fiver, you`re already soaking

and

now the world is very old
and the sky is very high
and we're just traffic in between
you and i
and if i knew my way
well i'd be there
now wouldn't i?

don't you know it only gets louder
when you cut off your ear?

Ah. Lloyd Cole. Attractive bastard.

00:32 / 10.01.03

There was a time when you let me know
what's really going on below,
but now you never show that to me, do ya?
But remember when I moved in you
and the Holy Dove was moving too,
and every breath we drew was hallelujah?
Hallelujah, hallelujah...

i'm sailing away
set an open course for the virgin sea
'cause i've got to be free
free to face the life
that's ahead of me
onboard i'm the captain
so climb aboard
we'll search for tomorrow
beyond every shore
and i'll try
oh lord i'll try
to carry on

i look to the sea
reflections in the waves
spark my memories
some happy
some sad
i think of childhood friends
and the dreams we had
we lived happily forever
so the story goes
but somehow we missed out
on the pot of gold
but we'll try
the best that we can
to carry on

a gathering of angels
appeared above my head
they sang to me this song of hope
and this is what they said
they said
come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me (x4)

i'd thought that they were angels
much to my surprise
i climbed aboard their starship
and headed for the skies ...

come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me (repeat and fade)

Standing in the shower thinking
about what makes a man
an outlaw or a leader
i'm thinking about power...
the ways a man could use it
or be destroyed by it
the water hits my neck
and i'm pissing on myself...

standing
in the shower
thinking...

standing in the shower thinking
about a man i know don't like me
he don't like the place i'm headed
same place he's headed
i know he'd beat me to it
if he could but he won't do it
but he would man
if he could...
and the water is piping hot..
the water is piping hot
it beats upon my neck
and i'm pissing on myself...

standing
in the shower
thinking...

standing in the shower thinking
is my woman afraid of me?
she's seen how far i've twisted
it's just cause i can trust her
and ever since we met
she understood so she let
me twist her good...
i twist her good...
and the water is piping hot
the water is piping hot
it beats upon my neck
and i'm pissing on myself...

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
And their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tommorow, no tommorow
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
'Cos I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

they say you stand by your man
tell me something I don't understand
you said you love me and that's a fact
then you left me, said you felt trapped

well some things you can explain away
but my heartache's in me till this day

all the times
when we were close
I'll remember these things the most
I see all my dreams come tumbling down
I won't be happy without you around

so all alone I keep the wolves at bay
there is only one thing that I can say

you must explain why this must be
did you lie when you spoke to me?

Did you stand by me
No, not at all

now I got a job
but it don't pay
I need new clothes
I need somewhere to stay
but without all these things I can do
but without your love I won't make it through

but you don't understand my point of view
I suppose there's nothing I can do

Do you realize
That you have the most beautiful face?
Do you realize
We're floating in space?
Do you realize
That happiness makes you cry?

Do you realize
That everyone you know someday will die?
And instead of saying all of your good-byes
Let them know you realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Do you realize?
