Lay Down Burden by Brian Wilson

So many years spent running away
How many times I wished I could stay
Too much emotion a hole in my heart
Feeling alone since we've been apart
And if I had the chance
I'd never let you go
Just want you to know

Chorus:
Lay down lay me down
Lay me down
Lay down burden

How many things I wanted to do
How many times spent thinking this through
So many nights spent here by the phone
Wonderin' if you felt just as alone
And while some things have all been
Crazy from the start
It's tearing me apart

Chorus

Just remember the way I held you
You're always in my heart

Chorus

 

[Shattered]

Nothing Else Matters

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
and nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us, something new
Open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they say
never cared for games they play
never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
and I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
No, nothing else matters

The Jazz Discharge Party Hats Lyrics
by Frank Zappa


Once upon a time
It was in Albuquerque, New Mexico
There were these girls that worked at the college
They were really cool . . .
(They thought so anyway)
They would be delighted to tell you
how suave they were At the drop of a hat
There was three of 'em:
One of them thought she was a
Beauty Queen . . .
The other one was a Walking Blow-Job
And then there was this skinny girl . . .
Oh well . . .
Some of the guys in the band got together
With the girls from the college
They were having a good time . . .
(We were in Albuquerque for a couple of days)
But these girls thought they were Hot Shit
'N wouldn't pooch the guys in the band
On the first day, so ...
A couple of the guys in the band
Who were desperate for THAT KIND OF ACTION
Kept workin' on 'em for two days
(Which is a waste of fuckin' time anyway . . .)
So, anyway . . .
But if that's your idea of a good time, what the hey?
Send those pants up here!
Here's some more!
Okay, good-good!
Traditional cotton ... oh, how sweet!
Umf. . . huh-huh-huh-huhhh . . .
HERE! Work these!
Anyway . . .
We're in Albuquerque, New Mexico . . .
A couple of the guys in the band, who shall go nameless
Because their girlfriends might find out
Decided they were gonna work the wall on these girls
From the college
So, one night ... it was the first night
When they were still trying to 'get it in there'
(Ya know what I mean? Huh-huh-huh . . .)
The skinny girl, she says to one of the guys in the band
She says, well, to several of the guys in the band
And one of the T-shirt guys too . . .
"HEY! LET'S GO SKINNY-DIPPING!"
At two o'clock in the morning at the pool at the hotel
That's right, you heard right,
Two o'clock in the morning, pool at the hotel . . .
It was so fun . . .
But the water was very, very cold!
So they go out there and the girl who was really skinny
'N' probably totally insensitive to climatic changes
Took all of her garments off and she jumped in the pool
And she says, "HEY GUYS! COME ON IN!"
Well, one of them did ...
The other one was too smart for that shit
So him and the T-shirt guy sat by the edge of the pool
And when the girl who was really skinny
(And insensitive to climatic changes)
Took off her clothes and jumped in the pool
She threw her pants over there by the little table
Well, one of the guys from the band picked up her panties
(He told me later the stuff in the bottom
Was like punching an eclair . . .)
Anyhow . . . there was nothing else to do ...
It was Albuquerque, New Mexico
It's two o'clock in the morning . . .
They're not going to get any nooky anyway . . .
So this one guy and the T-shirt guy
Started sniffing the girl's panties . . .
They were sniffing the fudge and sniffing the glue . . .
Sniffing every 'thing' that adhered to these
Delightful little morsels
(Some of you might think this is weird. . .
No wonder.
It's not exactly normal, but
What the fuck?)
So, they're snorting it ...
(Hey! It's the twentieth century . . .
Whatever you can do to have a good time, let's get on with it,
So long as it doesn't cause a murder . . .)
So they're snorting the pants
'N' then they put them on their heads . . .
They were having a good time . . .
The girl was in the water . . . she didn't even see
What was going on with her underpants . . .
They were wearing the pants
It looked just like a tiny little party hat . . .
Their ears were sticking out the side ...
it was so fun
Later on they discovered,
This would make a great way of life for them...
They would go from town to town looking for panties
They would take the panties after they were hung up
On the clothes line
Later on they would take 'em back in the dressing room
They would play with them...
They would fetish the underpants...
They would snort every little morsel attached
To The underpants... and then... they would feel that
They were FULFILLED

And so you can see
That what we're doing here on stage
Is part of a Great American Tradition
The tradition of the
JAZZ DISCHARGE PARTY HATS

› Caroline, No by the Beach Boys

Where did your long hair go
Where is the girl I used to know
How could you lose that happy glow
Oh, caroline no

Who took that look away
I remember how you used to say
You’d never change, but that’s not true
Oh, caroline you

Break my heart
I want to go and cry
It’s so sad to watch a sweet thing die
Oh, caroline why

Could I ever find in you again
Things that made me love you so much then
Could we ever bring ’em back once they have gone
Oh, caroline no

The City written by Mac McAnally as performed by Jimmy Buffett



Ahhhhhh
Ah, ahhhhhh
Ah, ahhhhhh

As a child on the farm
I was warned of the wiles of the city
Of that demon disguise
There's the dirt in the skies of the city

Well they say the proximity warps their minds
'Til they're shooting one another just pass the time
And we live it appears
Both in spite and in fear of the city

Oooohhh, ooohhhh yeah
Oooohhh

I was constantly told
How our lives were controlled by the city
How they keep us in debt
With the trends that they set it's a pity

Now the beautiful people in the magazines
Got the normal ones living beyond their means
And the things that they said
Made me go in my head to the city

Oooohhh
Ahhhhhhh
Ah, ahhhhhh
Ah, ahhhhhh

When I finally came
There's some things still the same in the city
You still lie under the thumb
Of the rich and the young and the pretty

Well they weren't much different than we might act
If there was that many others stacked and closely packed
It's an ancient idea
But it struck me so clear in the city

Oooohhh, ooohhhh yeah
Oooohhh, ooohhhh yeah
Oooohhh

Ahhhhhh
Ah, ahhhhhh
Ah, ahhhhhh

King Of The Hill
Written by: Roger McGuinn and Tom Petty


L.A.'s asleep
You roll up your window
The night air is cold
The freeway is clear

In a green Gucci bag
Are your prized possessions
The jewels of you mind
To hold back the fear

And when Monday comes round
There's a high lonesome sound

(Chorus)
And she follows you down for the kill
And a white blinding light
Makes it all seem so right
And you feel like the king of the hill

The driveway is long
Your princess is lovely
Your servants all wait
For you knock on the door

How many years
Will you crawl through this castle
So satisfied
And still wanting more

(Chorus)

The guests have arrived
With all the right faces
But you miss the ball
In that room down the hall

It's sunrise again
The driveway is empty
The crystal is cracked
There's blood on the wall

(Chorus)

[Just a guy]

Strange how they managed to create the only lyrics ever needed and match it with the only TV series ever needed. Life's complete.


Love and marriage, love and marriage
Go together like a horse and carriage
This I tell you brother
You can’t have one without the other

Love and marriage, love and marriage
It’s an institute you can’t disparage
Ask the local gentry
And they will say it’s elementary

Try, try, try to separate them
It’s an illusion
Try, try, try, and you will only come
To this conclusion

Love and marriage, love and marriage
Go together like a horse and carriage
Dad was told by mother
You can’t have one without the other

Talk Tonight by Oasis


Sittin' on my own
Chewin' on a bone
A thousand million
Miles from home
When Something hit me
Somewhere right between the eyes

Sleepin' on a plane
You know you can't complain
You took your last chance
Once again
I landed, stranded
Hardly even knew your name

I wanna talk tonight
Until the mornin' light
'Bout how you saved my life
You and me see how we are
You and me see how we are

All your dreams are made
Of Strawberry lemonade
And you make sure
I eat today
You take me walking
To where you played
When you were young

I'll never say that I
Won't ever make you cry
And this I'll say
I don't know why
I know I'm leavin'
But I'll be back another day

I wanna talk tonight
Until the mornin' light
'Bout how you saved my life
(You saved my life)
I wanna talk tonight
(I wanna talk tonight)
'Bout how you saved my life
(I wanna talk tonight)
'Bout how you saved my life
(I wanna talk tonight)
'Bout how you saved my life
(I wanna talk tonight)

'Bout how you saved my life
(I wanna talk tonight)

I wanna talk tonight
I wanna talk tonight
I wanna talk tonight

Love, love, love.

Nothing you can sing that can’t be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game.

No one you can save that can’t be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time.

All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

All you need is love.

Nothing you can know that isn’t known.
Nothing you can see that isn’t shown.
Nowhere you can be that isn’t where you’re meant to be.
It’s easy.

All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

All you need is love (all together, now!)

Lucky Denver Mint by Jimmy Eat World


This time it's on my own.
Minutes from somewhere else.
Somewhere I made a wish with Lucky Denver Mint.

You're not bigger than this, not better.
Why can't you learn
You're not bigger than this, not better.
Why can't you learn

Hurry go on ahead.
Good things won't let you wait.
I'll catch up when we get home.
At home I'll leave a dollar under water keeps on dreaming for me.

You're not bigger than this, not better.
Why can't you learn
You're not bigger than this, not better.
Why can't you learn
You're not bigger than this, not better.
Why can't you learn
You're not bigger than this, not better.
Why can't you learn

Why can't I learn? (Why can't I learn?)
Why can't I...learn? Learn? Learn Learn!

You're not bigger than this, not better.
Why can't you learn
You're not bigger than this, not better.
Why can't you learn
You're not bigger than this, not better.
Why can't you learn
You're not bigger than this, not better.
Why can't you learn

I Just Don't Think I'll Ever Get Over You by Colin Hay

I drink good coffee every morning
Comes from a place that's far away
And when I'm done I feel like talking
Without you here there is less to say
I don't want you thinking I'm unhappy
What is closer to the truth
That if I lived till I was 102
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
I'm no longer moved to drink strong whisky
'Cause I shook the hand of time and I knew
That if I lived till I could no longer climb my stairs
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
Your face it dances and it haunts me
Your laughter's still ringing in my ears
I still find pieces of your presence here
Even after all these years
But I don't want you thinking I don't get asked to dinner
'Cause I'm here to say that I sometimes do
Even though I may soon feel the touch of love
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
If I lived till I was 102
I just don't think I'll ever get over you

Kodachrome
Words & music by paul simon

When I think back
On all the crap I learned in high school
It’s a wonder
I can think at all
And though my lack of edu---cation
Hasn’t hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall

Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world’s a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama don’t take my kodachrome away

If you took all the girls I knew
When I was single
And brought them all together for one night
I know they’d never match
My sweet imagination
And everything looks worse in black and white

Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world’s a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama don’t take my kodachrome away

Take me home by Phil Collins

Take that look of worry
I’m an ordinary man
They don’t tell me nothing
So I find out what I can
There’s a fire that’s been burning
Right outside my door
I can’t see but I feel it
And it helps to keep me warm
So i, I don’t mind
No i, I don’t mind

Seems so long I’ve been waiting
Still don’t know what for
There’s no point escaping
I don’t worry anymore
I can’t come out to find you
I don’t like to go outside
They can’t turn off my feelings
Like they’re turning off a light
But i, I don’t mind
No i, I don’t mind
Oh i, I don’t mind
No i, I don’t mind

So take, take me home
Cos I don’t remember
Take, take me home
Cos I don’t remember
Take, take me home
Cos I don’t remember
Take, take me home, oh lord
Cos I’ve been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you

Take that look of worry, mine’s an ordinary life
Working when it’s daylight
And sleeping when it’s night
I’ve got no far horizons
I don’t wish upon a star
They don’t think that I listen
Oh but I know who they are
And i, I don’t mind
No i, I don’t mind
Oh i, I don’t mind
No i, I don’t mind

So take, take me home
Cos I don’t remember
Take, take me home
Cos I don’t remember
Take, take me home
Cos I don’t remember
Take, take me home, oh lord
Well I’ve been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you

But I don’t remember
Take, take me home...

Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion
Is nothing new
Flashback warm nights
Almost left behind
Suitcases of memories,
Time after

Sometimes you picture me
I’m walking too far ahead
You’re calling to me, I can’t hear
What you’ve said
Then you say go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you’re lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I’ll be waiting
Time after time

If you’re lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I’ll be waiting
Time after time

After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows you’re wondering
If I’m ok
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time

If you’re lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I’ll be waiting
Time after time

You said go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you’re lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I’ll be waiting
Time after time

If you’re lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I’ll be waiting
Time after time

Time after time
Time after time
Time after time

Operaman by Adam Sandler

Giuliani x2
WHY must you ever be gone-y
2 more months-ah
10 more weeks-ah
we have to deal with one of these geeks-ah
Giuliani x2
He-s Diplomatic-oh
Meeting leaders-oh
From all around the globe
but if you blame USA
Stick your 10million up your role
Giuliani x2
I will miss you senior Rudy
So tough but oh so sweet
The only good thing about you
Leaving we get the hookers back on the street

Hey America come to New York
Do some shopping
Catch a play
And if you see a lonely Fireman
Give that guy a thank you lay
And the cops too x2
Yankees bring New York together
Yankees we even like Steinbrenner
Yankees now we break applause meter
With two words
DEREK JETER!!
He hits He fields
Hes got a cute-ah face
Even operaman would let him get to second base

The Who reunite-ah
Pete and rodger no more fight-ah
They smashed the guitar and swing microphone-ah
Plus Mick Jagger's on the bill
Paul McCartney what a thrill
But it's Destiny's Child that gave me a boner
I've got a boner
A jewish circumsized boner
Can't get rid of this boner
Operaman wishes he was alone-ah

Oh Mr. Bin Laden
Why-ah he so angry
Just look-sh at him
Six-ah foot six
And he no can touch the rim
He no let women read
He no let women vote-ah
That's why the only love he gets
Is from a mountain goat-ah
He wants to spread disease-oh
In our own mail box
For he himself suffers
From a case of small cocks
Osama kiss my ass
Osama bite my dick
Osama go to hell
Osama get a shrink
Osama says hes tough
Osama says hes brave
Then tell me why Osama
Is shitting in a cave!!!!

It was an honor
To sing for you
Operaman have so much fun
Cause New York City Te Adoro
You'll always be our number 1
Operaman BYE BYE

Undiscovered Soul by Richie Sambora

She was standing at the station
small town suitcase in her hand
there were dreams she found inside her
that no one cared to understand
she never talks about her childhood
so much past to leave behind
she's so scared to go
but still she says goodbye.

When you walk that road
you walk alone
just an undiscovered soul
in the great unknown
when you only hope
is to find a home
just an undiscovered soul
in the great unknown
in the great unknown.

Born and raised in poverty
daddy died when he was young
all the fears that raged inside him
his spirit need to overcome
each day he tears down the reflection
of who he used to be
and with a little luck
he'll rise eventually.

When you walk that road
when you walk alone
just an undiscovered soul
in the great unknown
when you only hope
is to find a home
just an undiscovered soul
in the great unknown
the great unknown.

In the search of our salvation
relentlessly we climb
just looking for a reason
in creation's grand design
if patience is a virtue
then let us humbly begin
we'll be here waiting
'til our ship comes sailing in.

When you walk that road
we walk alone
just an undiscovered soul
in the great unknown
when you only hope
is to find a home
you're just an undiscovered soul
in the great unknown
the great unknown
the great unknown
don't want to walk through life
and undiscovered soul.

Searching for the road
looking for a home
in the great unknown
don't want to walk through life
an undiscovered soul
searching for a home
looking for a road
in the great unknown
don't want to walk through life
an undiscovered soul

Patience, virtue, identify, soul

Let Go by Frou Frou


Drink up baby down
Are you in or are you out?
Leave your things behind
'Cause it's all going off without you
Excuse me too busy you're writing a tragedy
These mess-ups
You bubble-wrap
When you've no idea what you're like

So, let go
Jump in
Oh well, what you waiting for?
It's all right
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown
So, let go
Just get in
Oh, it's so amazing here
It's all right
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

It gains the more it gives
And then advances with the form
So, honey, back for more
Can't you see that all the stuff's essential?
Such boundless pleasure
We've no time for later
Now you can wait
You roll your eyes
We've twenty seconds to comply

So, let go
Jump in
Oh well, what you waiting for?
It's al right
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown
So, let go
Just get in
Oh, it's so amazing here
It's all right
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

Could you be loved by Bob Marley


Could you be loved and be loved?
Could you be loved and be loved?

Don’t let them fool ya,
Or even try to school ya! oh, no!
We’ve got a mind of our own,
So go to hell if what you’re thinking is not right!
Love would never leave us alone,
A-yin the darkness there must come out to light.

Could you be loved and be loved?
Could you be loved, wo now! - and be loved?

(the road of life is rocky and you may stumble too,
So while you point your fingers someone else is judging you)
Love your brotherman!
(could you be - could you be - could you be loved?
Could you be - could you be loved?
Could you be - could you be - could you be loved?
Could you be - could you be loved? )

Don’t let them change ya, oh! -
Or even rearrange ya! oh, no!
We’ve got a life to live.
They say: only - only -
Only the fittest of the fittest shall survive -
Stay alive! eh!

Could you be loved and be loved?
Could you be loved, wo now! - and be loved?

(you ain’t gonna miss your water until your well runs dry;
No matter how you treat him, the man will never be satisfied.)
Say something! (could you be - could you be - could you be loved?
Could you be - could you be loved? )
Say something! say something!
(could you be - could you be - could you be loved? )
Say something! (could you be - could you be loved? )
Say something! say something! (say something!)
Say something! say something! (could you be loved? )
Say something! say something! reggae, reggae!
Say something! rockers, rockers!
Say something! reggae, reggae!
Say something! rockers, rockers!
Say something! (could you be loved? )
Say something! uh!
Say something! come on!
Say something! (could you be - could you be - could you be loved? )
Say something! (could you be - could you be loved? )
Say something! (could you be - could you be - could you be loved? )

The Boy in the Bubble by Paul Simon

It was a slow day
And the sun was beating
On the soldiers by the side of the road
There was a bright light
A shattering of shop windows
The bomb in the baby carriage
Was wired to the radio
These are the days of miracle and wonder
This is the long distance call
The way the camera follows us in slow motion
The way we look to us all
The way we look to a distant constellation
That's dying in a corner of the sky
These are the days of miracle and wonder
And don't cry baby, don't cry
Don't cry

It was a dry wind
And it swept across the desert
And it curled into the circle of birth
And the dead sand
Falling on the children
The mothers and the fathers
And the automatic earth
These are the days of miracle and wonder
This is the long distance call
The way the camera follows us in slow motion
The way we look to us all o-yeah
The way we look to a distant constellation
That's dying in a corner of the sky
These are the days of miracle and wonder
And don't cry baby, don't cry
Don't cry

It's a turn-around jump shot
It's everybody jump start
It's every generation throws a hero up the pop charts
Medicine is magical and magical is art, think of
The Boy in the Bubble
And the baby with the baboon heart

And I believe
These are the days of lasers in the jungle
Lasers in the jungle somewhere
Staccato signals of constant information
A loose affiliation of millionaires
And billionaires and baby
These are the days of miracle and wonder
This is the long distance call
The way the camera follows us in slo-mo
The way we look to us all o-yeah
The way we look to a distant constellation
That's dying in a corner of the sky
These are the days of miracle and wonder
And don't cry baby, don't cry
Don't cry

Old Crow Medicine Show Lyrics
Song: Take 'Em Away Lyrics

(Chorus
Take ‘em away, take ‘em away, Lord
Take away these chains from me
My heart is broken ‘cause my spirit’s not free
Lord take away these chains from me

Some birds’ feathers are too bright to be caged
I know I’m not that colorful but a bird just the same
Open up your gate now, let me put down my load
So I can feel at ease and go back to my home

(Chorus)

Sun beatin’ down, my legs can’t seem to stand
There’s a boss man at a turnrow with a rifle in his hand
I’ve got nine child, nothin’ in the pan
My wife she died hungry while I was plowin’ land

(Chorus)

Can’t see when I go to work, can’t see when I get off
How do you expect a man not to get lost
Every year I just keep getting deeper in debt
If there’s a happy day, Lord, I haven’t seen one yet

(Chorus)

Land that I love is the land that I’m workin’
But it’s hard to love it all the time when your back is a-hurtin’
Gettin’ too old now to push this here plow
Please let me lay down so I can look at the clouds

(Chorus)

Land that I know is where two rivers collide
The Brazos the Navaso and the big blue sky
Flood plains, freight trains, watermelon vines
Of any place on God’s green earth, this is where I choose to die
