Songs from yesterday that apply today

Splinter2

All the Kids are Right

You heard that we were great

But now you think we're lame

Since you saw the show last night

You hoped that we would rock

Knock it up a notch

Rockin' was nowhere in sight

And it's never good when it goes bad

No one likes to feel like

They've been had

It may be OK

But you won't wear our t-shirts now

Anymore

First the band looked wired

Then the band looked tired

Sluggish and a little slow

Just walking thru the set

As drunk as you could get

And what the hell was wrong with Joe?

You could tell the crowd was fading fast

Every song we played looser than the last

And it may be OK

But you won't wear our t-shirts now

All the kids they hold a grudge their

Minds are logged onto the 'Net and

All the kids they hold a grudge you've

Failed them and they won't forget it

All the kids they're tired and turned away

They saw what you did

You're all wrong and all the kids are right

You heard that we were great

But now you know we're lame

Since you saw the show last night

You hoped that we would rock

You wished that we'd just stop

Finally we said good night

When we had returned for the encore

You and half the room had headed for the door

No one wanted more

All the kids they hold a grudge their

Minds are logged onto the 'Net and

All the kids they hold a grudge you've

Failed them and they won't forget it

All the kids they're tired and turned away

All the kids they hold a grudge their

Minds are logged onto the 'Net and

All the kids they hold a grudge you've

Failed them and they won't forget it

All your cred won't save you from the kids

They saw what you did

You're all wrong and all the kids are right

Dedicated to all those who are foolish enough to think that Obama will 'change' the world, and we'll all be living in Camelot once he's elected.

"Meet the new boss.  Same as the old boss".

Won't Get Fooled Again

We'll be fighting in the streets

With our children at our feet

And the morals that they worship will be gone

And the men who spurred us on

Sit in judgement of all wrong

They decide and the shotgun sings the song

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around me

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

The change, it had to come

We knew it all along

We were liberated from the foe, that's all

And the world looks just the same

And history ain't changed

'Cause the banners, they all flown in the next war

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around me

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

No, no!

I'll move myself and my family aside

If we happen to be left half alive

I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky

For I know that the hypnotized never lie

Do ya?

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

There's nothing in the street

Looks any different to me

And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye

And the parting on the left

Is now the parting on the right

And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around me

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

Don't get fooled again

No, no!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Meet the new boss

Same as the old boss

Adia

Adia I do believe I failed you

Adia I know I let you down

Don’t you know I tried so hard

To love you in my way

It’s easy let it go...

Adia I’m empty since you left me

Trying to find a way to carry on

I search myself and everyone

To see where we went wrong

’cause there’s no one left to finger

There’s no one here to blame

There’s no one left to talk to, honey

And there ain’t no one to buy our innocence

’cause we are born innocent

Believe me adia, we are still innocent

It’s easy, we all falter

Does it matter?

Adia I thought that we could make it

But I know I can’t change the way you feel

I leave you with your misery

A friend who won’t betray

I pull you from your tower

I take away your pain

And show you all the beauty you possess

If you’d only let yourself believe that

We are born innocent

Believe me adia, we are still innocent

It’s easy, we all falter, does it matter?

Believe me adia, we are still innocent

’cause we are born innocent

Adia we are still innocent

It’s easy, we all falter ... but does it matter?

Because Christmas is getting nearer and nearer....

Happy Christmas(War is Over) by John Lennon

 

So this is Christmas

And what have you done

Another year over

And a new one just begun

Ans so this is Christmas

I hope you have fun

The near and the dear one

The old and the young

A very merry Christmas

And a happy New Year

Let's hope it's a good one

Without any fear

And so this is Christmas

For weak and for strong

For rich and the poor ones

The world is so wrong

And so happy Christmas

For black and for white

For yellow and red ones

Let's stop all the fight

A very merry Christmas

And a happy New Year

Let's hope it's a good one

Without any fear

And so this is Christmas

And what have we done

Another year over

And a new one just begun

Ans so this is Christmas

I hope you have fun

The near and the dear one

The old and the young

A very merry Christmas

And a happy New Year

Let's hope it's a good one

Without any fear

War is over over

If you want it

War is over

Now...

RubberShoes

Waterfalls by TLC

A lonely mother gazing out of the window

Staring at her son that she just can't touch

If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side

But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much

But all the praying just ain't helping at all

'Cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble

So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how

Another body layin' cold in the gutter

Listen to me

Don’t go chasing waterfalls, please stick to the rivers

And the lakes that you’re used to

I know that you’re gonna have it your way or nothing at all

But I think you're moving too fast

Little precious has a natural obsession for temptation

But he just can't see

She gives him loving that his body can't handle

But all he can say is, "Baby is good to me"

One day he goes and take a glimpse in the mirror

But he doesn’t recognize his own face

His health is fading and he doesn’t know why

3 letters took him to his final resting place

Y'all, don’t you hear me?

Don’t go chasing waterfalls, please stick to the rivers

And the lakes that you’re used to

I know that you’re gonna have it your way or nothing at all

But I think you're moving too fast

Y'all, don’t you hear me?

Don’t go chasing waterfalls, please stick to the rivers

And the lakes that you’re used to

I know that you’re gonna have it your way or nothing at all

But I think you're moving too fast

Come on

I seen a rainbow yesterday but too many storms have come and gone

Leaving a trace of not one God giving ray

Is it because my life is ten shades of gray?

I pray, all ten fade away, seldom praise him for the seven days

And like his promise is true

Only my faith can undo the many chances I blew to bring my life to anew

Clear and blue and unconditional skies

Have dried the tears from my eyes

No more lonely cries, my only bleeding hope

Is for the folk who can't cope with such an endurin’ pain

That it keeps them in the pourin' rain

Who's to blame for tootin’ caine into your own vein

What a shame, you shoot and aim for someone else’s blame

You claim the insane for this day

And time for falling prey to crime

I say the system's got you victim to your own mind

Dreams are hopeless aspirations in hopes of coming true

Believe in yourself

The rest is up to me and you

Don’t go chasing waterfalls, please stick to the rivers

And the lakes that you’re used to

I know that you’re gonna have it your way or nothing at all

But I think you're moving too fast

Imagine

by John Lennon

 

Imagine there's no Heaven

It's easy if you try

No hell below us

Above us only sky

Imagine all the people

Living for today

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion too

Imagine all the people

Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people

Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will live as one

tempuraboy

We've only just begun to live,

White lace and promises

A kiss for luck and we're on our way.

And yes, We've just begun.

Before the rising sun we fly,

So many roads to choose

We start our walking and learn to run.

And yes, We've just begun.

Sharing horizons that are new to us,

Watching the signs along the way,

Talking it over just the two of us,

Working together day to day

Together.

And when the evening comes we smile,

So much of life ahead

We'll find a place where there's room to grow,

And yes, We've just begun.

 

 

tempuraboy

Love is Surrender

 

Talk about love

how it makes life complete

You can talk all you want

make it sound nice and sweet,

But the words have an empty ring,

and they don't really mean a thing,

Chorus:

Without Him love is not to be found;

not to be found.

For love is surrender,

Love is surrender to His will

Love is surrender to His will

Sing about love

and the strength it can give

You can sing how you're ready

to face life and live,

But you know as the days go by

that no matter how hard you try,

Chorus

Shout about love

and the wars will all end

You can shout we're all brothers

and even pretend

But you can't cover up the past

just pretending we'll never last,

Chorus

 

tempuraboy

Rainy Days and Mondays

 

Talkin' to myself and feelin' old

Sometimes I'd like to quit

Nothing ever seems to fit

Hangin' around

Nothing to do but frown

Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.

What I've got they used to call the blues

Nothin' is really wrong

Feelin' like I don't belong

Walkin' around

Some kind of lonely clown

Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.

Funny but it seems I always wind up here with you

Nice to know somebody loves me

Funny but it seems that it's the only thing to do

Run and find the one who loves me.

What I feel has come and gone before

No need to talk it out

We know what it's all about

Hangin' around

Nothing to do but frown

Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.

Superstar

 

Long ago, and, oh, so far away

I fell in love with you before the second show.

Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear, but you're not really here.

It's just the radio.

Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?

You said you'd be coming back this way again baby.

Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby.

I love you, I really do.

Loneliness is such a sad affair, and I can hardly wait to be with you again.

What to say, to make you come again?

Come back to me again, and play your sad guitar.

 

Potat

2 become 1 - spice girls lols

Candle light and soul forever

A dream of you and me together

Say you believe it, say you believe it

Free your mind of doubt and danger

Be for real don't be a stranger

We can achieve it, we can achieve it

Come a little bit closer baby, get it on, get it on

'Cause tonight is the night when two become one

[Chorus:]

I need some love like I never needed love before

(Wanna make love to ya baby)

I had a little love, now I'm back for more

(Wanna make love to ya baby)

Set your spirit free, it's the only way to be

Silly games that you were playing

Empty words we both were saying

Let's work it out boy, let's work it out boy

once again if we endevour

love will bring us back together

Take it or leave it, take it or leave it

Are you as good as I remember baby, get it on, get it on

'Cause tonight is the night when two become one

[Chorus]

Ah, oh wow

Ah, oh wow

Be a little bit wiser baby, put it on, put it on

'Cause tonight is the night when two become one

I need some love like I never needed love before

(Wanna make love to ya baby)

I had a little love, now I'm back for more

(Wanna make love to ya baby)

I need some love like I never needed love before

(Wanna make love to ya baby)

I had a little love, now I'm back for more

(Wanna make love to ya baby)

Set your spirit free, it's the only way to be

It's the only way to be

Close To You

 

Why do birds suddenly appear

Every time you are near?

Just like me, they long to be

Close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky

Every time you walk by?

Just like me, they long to be

Close to you.

On the day that you were born

The angels got together

And decided to create a dream come true

So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold

And starlight in your eyes of blue.

That is why all the girls in town

Follow you all around.

Just like me, they long to be

Close to you.

On the day that you were born

The angels got together

And decided to create a dream come true

So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold

And starlight in your eyes of blue.

That is why all the girls in town

Follow you all around.

Just like me, they long to be

Close to you.

Just like me (Just like me)

They long to be

Close to you.

Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.

Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.

Hahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.

Lahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.

 

shrimpz

You know I can't smile without you.

I can't smile without you.

I cant' laugh and I can't walk,

finding it hard even to talk.

And I feel sad when you're sad.

I feel gland when your glad.

And you must know what I'm going through,

I just can't smile without you.

You came along just like a song

you brightened my days.

Who'd believe you were part of a dream

that always seemed light years away.

And you know I can't smile without you.

I can't smile without you.

And you must know what I'm going through,

I just can't smile without you.

Some people say

the happiness way

is something that hard to find.

Into the new, leaving the old behind me.

And I feel sad when you're sad.

I feel glad when your glad.

And you must know what I'm going through,

I just can't smile without you.

(Instrumental Break)

Into the new, leaving the old behind me.

And I feel sad when you're sad.

I feel glad when your glad.

And you must know what I'm going through,

I just can't smile without you.

Waterloo Sunset, by The Kinks

Dirty old river, must you keep rolling

Flowing into the night

People so busy, makes me feel dizzy

Taxi light shines so bright

But I dont need no friends

As long as I gaze on waterloo sunset

I am in paradise

Every day I look at the world from my window

But chilly, chilly is the evening time

Waterloo sunsets fine

Terry meets julie, waterloo station

Every friday night

But I am so lazy, dont want to wander

I stay at home at night

But I dont feel afraid

As long as I gaze on waterloo sunset

I am in paradise

Every day I look at the world from my window

But chilly, chilly is the evening time

Waterloo sunsets fine

Millions of people swarming like flies round waterloo underground

But terry and julie cross over the river

Where they feel safe and sound

And the dont need no friends

As long as they gaze on waterloo sunset

They are in paradise

Waterloo sunsets fine

I choked on my oatmeal.

 

2-Live Crew, Me So Horny

[What'll we get for ten dollars?]

[Every 'ting you want]

[Everything?]

[Every 'ting]

[Ooh! Don't do that, baby! Ahh!]

[Hold on this! Oh, sock it to me! Aaahh!]

[Ooohh!]

Chorus (repeated during breakdowns):

[Ahh! Me so horny!]

[Me love you long time!]

Verse 1: Brother Marquis

Sittin' at home with my dick on hard

So I got the black book for a freak to call

Picked up the telephone, then dialed the 7 digits

Said, "Yo, this Marquis, baby! Are you down with it?"

I arrived at her house, knocked on the door

Not having no idea of what the night had in store

I'm like a dog in heat, a freak without warning

I have an appetite for sex, 'cause me so horny

Chorus

Verse 2: Fresh Kid Ice

Girls always ask me why I fuck so much

I say "What's wrong, baby doll, with a quick nut?"

'Cause you're the one, and you shouldn't be mad

I won't tell your mama if you don't tell your dad

I know he'll be disgusted when he sees your pussy busted

Won't your mama be so mad if she knew I got that ass?

I'm a freak in heat, a dog without warning

My appetite is sex, 'cause me so horny

Chorus

Verse 3: Brother Marquis

You can say I'm desperate, even call me perverted

But you say I'm a dog when I leave you fucked and deserted

I'll play with your heart just like it's a game

I'll be blowing your mind while you're blowing my brains

I'm just like that man they call Georgie Puddin' Pie

I fuck all the girls and I make 'em cry

I'm like a dog in heat, a freak without warning

I have an appetite for sex, 'cause me so horny.

Chorus

Breakdown(4x):

[Ahh! Hold on this! Oh, sock it to me!]

Chorus

Verse 4: Fresh Kid Ice

It's true, you were a virgin until you met me

I was the first to make you hot and wetty-wetty

You tell your parents that we're goin' out

Never to the movies, just straight to my house

You said it yourself, you like it like I do

Put your lips on my dick, and suck my asshole too

I'm a freak in heat, a dog without warning

My appetite is sex, 'cause me so horny

Chorus

Breakdown (repeated till end of track):

[Fuckie suckie]

[Me fuckie suckie

Another one; one of the most poignant songs ever.

The Sounds of Silence

Hello darkness, my old friend

I've come to talk with you again

Because a vision softly creeping

Left its seeds while I was sleeping

And the vision that was planted in my brain

Still remains

Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone

Narrow streets of cobblestone

'Neath the halo of a street lamp

I turn my collar to the cold and damp

When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light

That split the night

And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw

Ten thousand people maybe more

People talking without speaking

People hearing without listening

People writing songs that voices never shared

No one dared

Disturb the sound of silence

"Fools," said I, "you do not know

Silence like a cancer grows

Hear my words that I might teach you

Take my arms that I might reach you"

But my words like silent raindrops fell

And echoed in the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed

To the neon god they made

And the sign flashed out its warning

In the words that it was forming

And the sign said "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls

And tenement halls

And whispered in the sound of silence

Considering my recent disgust with news outlets, this not-so-recent song seems appropriate.

Don Henley - Dirty Laundry

I make my living off the Evening News

Just give me something-something I can use

People love it when you lose,

They love dirty laundry

Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here

I just have to look good, I don't have to be clear

Come and whisper in my ear

Give us dirty laundry

Kick 'em when they're up

Kick 'em when they're down

Kick 'em when they're up

Kick 'em when they're down

Kick 'em when they're up

Kick 'em when they're down

Kick 'em when they're up

Kick 'em all around

We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who

comes on at five

She can tell you 'bout the plane crash with a gleam

in her eye

It's interesting when people die-

Give us dirty laundry

Can we film the operation?

Is the head dead yet?

You know, the boys in the newsroom got a

running bet

Get the widow on the set!

We need dirty laundry

You don't really need to find out what's going on

You don't really want to know just how far it's gone

Just leave well enough love

Eat your dirty laundry

(Chorus)

Dirty little secrets

Dirty little lies

We got our dirty little fingers in everybody's pie

We love to cut you down to size

We love dirty laundry

We can do "The Innuendo"

We can dance and sing

When it's said and done we haven't told you a thing

We all know that Crap is King

Give us dirty laundry!

"Ordinary People"

by John Legend

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Girl, I'm in love with you

But this ain't the honeymoon

We've passed the infatuation phase

We're right in the thick of love

At times we get sick of love

It seems like we argue every day

I know I misbehaved

And you made your mistakes

And we've both still got room left to grow

And though love sometimes hurts

I still put you first

And we'll make this thing work

But I think we should take it slow

We're just ordinary people

We don't know which way to go

Cause we're ordinary people

Maybe we should take it slow

Take it slow, oh oh, this time we'll take it slow

Take it slow, oh oh, this time we'll take it slow

This ain't a movie, no

No fairytale conclusion y'all

It gets more confusing every day

Sometimes it's Heaven sent

Then we head back to Hell again

We kiss, then we make up on the way

I hang up, you call

We rise and we fall

And we feel like just walking away

As our love advances

We take second chances

Though it's not a fantasy

I still want you to stay

We're just ordinary people

We don't know which way to go

Cause we're ordinary people

Maybe we should take it slow

Take it slow, oh oh, this time we'll take it slow

Take it slow, oh oh, this time we'll take it slow

Take it slow

Maybe we'll live and learn

Maybe we'll crash and burn

Maybe you'll stay

Maybe you''ll leave

Maybe you'll return

Maybe another fight

Maybe we won't survive

Maybe we'll grow

We'll never know

Baby, you and I

We're just ordinary people

We don't know which way to go

Cause we're ordinary people

Maybe we should take it slow, hey

We're just ordinary people

We don't know which way to go

Cause we're ordinary people

Maybe we should take it slow

Take it slow, oh oh, this time we'll take it slow

Take it slow, oh oh, this time we'll take it slow

Take it slow,slow [fade]

pating

Scar tissue that I wish you saw

Sarcastic mister know it all

Close your eyes and I'll kiss you 'cause

With the birds I'll share

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

Push me up against the wall

Young Kentucky girl in a push-up bra

Fallin' all over myself

To lick your heart and taste you health 'cause

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

Blood loss in a bathroom stall

Southern girl with a scarlet drawl

Wave good-bye to ma and pa 'cause

With the birds I'll share

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

Soft spoken with a broken jaw

Step outside but not to brawl

Autumn's sweet we call it fall

I'll make it to the moon if I have to crawl and

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

Scar tissue that I wish you saw

Sarcastic mister know it all

Close your eyes and I'll kiss you 'cause

With the birds I'll share

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

With the birds I'll share

This lonely view

Cry by mandy moore

I'll always remember

It was late afternoon

It lasted forever

And ended too soon

You were all by yourself

Staring up at a dark gray sky

I was changed

In places no one would find

All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)

It was then that I realized

That forever was in your eyes

The moment I saw you cry

The moment that I saw you cry

It was late in september

And I've seen you before (and you were)

You were always the cold one

But i was never that sure

You were all by yourself

Staring at a dark gray sky

I was changed

In places no one would find

All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)

It was then that I realized

That forever was in your eyes

The moment I saw you cry

I wanted to hold you

i wanted to make it go away

I wanted to know you

I wanted to make your everything, all right....

I'll always remember...

It was late afternoon...

In places no one would find...

In places no one would find

All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)

It was then that I realized

That forever was in your eyes

The moment I saw you cry

Black Sabbath - War Pigs

Generals gathered in their masses

Just like witches at black masses

Evil minds that plot destruction

Sorcerers of deaths construction

In the fields the bodies burning

As the war machine keeps turning

Death and hatred to mankind

Poisoning their brainwashed minds, oh lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away

They only started the war

Why should they go out to fight?

They leave that role to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds

Making war just for fun

Treating people just like pawns in chess

Wait till their judgement day comes, yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turning

As the war machine keeps burning

No more war pigs of the power

Hand of God has sturck the hour

Day of judgement, God is calling

On their knees, the war pigs crawling

Begging mercy for their sins

Satan, laughing, spreads his wings

All right now!

Was thinking the exact same thing about this song when I saw the post. Great idea.

"End of Innocence"  Don Heneley

Remember when the days were long

And rolled beneath a deep blue sky

Didn't have a care in the world

With mommy and daddy standin' by

But "happily ever after" fails

And we've been posisoned by these fairy tales

The lawyers dwell on small details

Since daddy had to fly

But I know a place where we can go

That's still untouched by men

We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by

And the tall grass waves in the wind

You can lay your head back on the ground

And let your hair fall all around me

Offer up your best defense

But this is the end

This is the end of the innocence

O' beautiful, for spacious skies

But now those skies are threatening

They're beating plowshares into swords

For this tired old man that we elected king

Armchair warriors often fail

And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales

The lawyers clean up all details

Since daddy had to lie

But I know a place where we can go

And wash away this sin

We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by

And the tall grass waves in the wind

Just lay your head back on the ground

And let your hair spill all around me

Offer up your best defense

But this is the end

This is the end of the innocence

Who knows how long this will last

Now we've come so far, so fast

But, somewhere back there in the dust

That same small town in each of us

I need to remember this

So baby give me just one kiss

And let me take a long last look

Before we say goodbye

Just lay your head back on the ground

And let your hair fall all around me

Offer up your best defense

But this is the end

This is the end of the innocence

Seems out foreign policy hasn't changed much in the 30 years since this 1978 classic was written. If anything, our recklessness has broadened to even more dangerous areas of the globe. What a shame.

Warren Zevon - Lawyers, Guns and Money

Well, I went home with the waitress

You know the way I always do

Well how was I to know

She was with the Russians, too

I was gambling in Havana

You know I took a little risk

Send lawyers, guns and money

Daddy, won't you get me out of this

I'm an innocent bystander

Somehow I got stuck

Between a rock and a hard place

And I'm down on my luck

Oh yea, I'm down on my luck

Oh yea, I'm down on my luck

Oh baby, I'm down on my luck

I'm so far down, I don't think I'll ever get up

If it weren't for bad luck

Oh if it weren't for bad luck

I wouldn't have no luck at all

Now I'm stranded in Honduras

I'm a desperate man

Send lawyers, guns and money

The shit has hit the fan

Send lawyers, guns and money

Send lawyers, guns and money

Get me out of this

Send lawyers, guns and money

You know the shit has hit the fan
