Tracy Chapman "Fast Car" for me

You see my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
His body's too young to look like his

Patti page and summer days
On old cape cod
Happy times making wine
In my garage
Country shade and lemonade
Guess i`m slowing down
It`s a turned back world
With a local girl
In a smaller town

Oh was a perfect day. Oh in a perfect way, you know,
something had go, you left me high, you left me low.
Now as I lie in pieces, and wait for your return,
the sun upon my forehead it burns baby burns baby burns.

i lost the feeling in my toes
i dropped the handset as I froze
I should have seen it coming on the breeze.

I lost my pride hate that the most
I saw the man, the holy ghost
I lost the me and you from all the postcards from the coast.

But you were always hard to read
Like paper smudged, like falling leaves
That change their path to earth it seems
And you have changed in me.

Victim Of Love

What kind of love have you got?
You should be home, but you're not
A room full of noise and dangerous boys
still makes you thirsty and hot

I heard about you and that man
There's just one thing I don't understand
You say he's a liar and he put out your fire
How come you've still got his gun in your hand?

Victim of love , I see a broken heart
You got your stories to tell
Victim of love, it's such an easy part
and you know how to play it so well

Some people never come clean
I think you know what I mean
You're walkin' the wire of pain and desire
Looking for love in between

Tell me your secrets, I'll tell you mine
This ain't no time to be cool
And tell all your girlfriends, your "been around the world" friends
That talk is for losers and fools

Victim of love, I see a broken heart
I could be wrong, but I'm not
Victim of love, we're not so far apart
Show me, what kind of love have you got?

Victim of love, you're just a victim of love
I could be wrong , but I'm not
Victim of love, now you're a victim of love
What kind of love have you got?

Clevor Trever

Just cos I ain’t never ‘ad, no nothing worth having never ever, never ever
You ain’t got no call not to think I wouldn’t fall into thinking that I ain’t too clever
And it ain’t not having one thing nor not another either, neither is it anything, whatever
And it’s not not knowing that there ain’t nothing showing and I answer to the name of Trevor, however

Just cos I ain’t never said no nothing worth saying never ever never never ever
Things have got read into what I never sad ‘til me mouth becomes me head which ain’t not all that clever
And it’s not not saying one thing nor not another either, neither is it anything I haven’t said, whatever
And it ain’t not proving that me mind ain’t moving and I answer to the name of Trever, however

Knock me down with a feather, Clever Trevor
Widebrows wonder wether Clever Trevor’s clever
Either have they got nor neither haven’t not
Got no right to make a clot out of Trevor

Why should I feel bad about something I ain’t ‘ad such stupidness is mad
Cos nothing underfoot comes to nothing less to add to a load of old toot
And I ain’t half not I'm glad cos there’s nowhere to put
It even if I ‘ad i’m a bit of a Jack the Lad

Knock me down with a feather, Clever Trevor
Widebrows wonder wether Clever Trevor’s clever
Either have they got nor neither haven’t not
Got no right to make a clot out of Trevor

Also, it takes much longer to get up north, the slow way

It may not look much if you've never heard it, but one of my all time favourites by any artist, in fact I would put this album in my personal top five of all time  Happy

Well I tell them there's no problem, only solutions
Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind
I tell them there's no hurry

I have my books,
And my poetry to protect me,
I am shielded in my armour,
Hiding in my room,
Safe within my womb,
I touch no one, and no one touches me.
I am a rock.
I am an island
And a rock feels no pain.
And an island never cries.

What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

Depeche Mode

I'm hanging on your words
living on your breath
feeling with your skin
Will I always be here

Tori Amos

He said you're really an ugly girl
But I like the way you play
And I died
But I thanked him
Can you believe that
Sick holding on to his picture
Dressing up every day
I wanna smash the faces of those beautiful boys
Those christian boys
So you can make me cu m
That doesn't make you Jesus

Smashing Pumpkins

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

Pearl Jam

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky,
But why, why, why can't it be, can't it be mine?

They scratch
They make an awful fuss
It's no use stroking them and saying "puss puss puss"
Oh

Out in, out in, out in India (yuh)


She said she'd like to bathe in milk, he said, "All right, sweetheart,"
And when he'd finished work one night he loaded up his cart.
He said, "D'you want it pasturize? 'Cause pasturize is best,"
She says, "Ernie, I'll be happy if it comes up to my chest."

you've got that far away look in your eyes
It was only, yesterday
like a cheap suit you were all over me
I should know better by now, my friend
just what I mean to you
You've been running in and out of my life so long
I don't want nothing to do with you

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still peasants as far as I can see

I never thought it would happen
With me and the girl from clapham
Out on a windy common
That night I ain't forgotten
When she dealt out the rations
With some or other passions
I said you are a lady
Perhaps she said I may be
We moved into a basement
With thoughts of our engagement
We stayed in by the telly
Although the room was smelly
We spent our time just kissing
The railway arms we're missing
But love had got us hooked up
And all our time it took up

I got a job with stanley
He said I'd come in handy
And started me on monday
So I had a bath on sunday
I worked eleven hours
And bought the girl some flowers
She said she'd seen a doctor
And nothing now could stop her

I worked all through the winter
The weather brass and bitter
I put away a tenner
Each week to make her better
And when the time was ready
We had to sell the telly
Late evenings by the fire
With little kicks inside her

This morning at 4:50
I took her rather nifty
Down to an incubator
Where thirty minutes later
She gave birth to a daughter
Within a year a walker
She looked just like her mother
If there could be another

And now she's two years older
Her mother's with a soldier
She left me when my drinking
Became a proper stinging
The devil came and took me
From bar to street to bookie
No more nights by the telly
No more nights nappies smelling

Alone here in the kitchen
I feel there's something missing
I'd beg for some forgiveness
But begging's not my business
And she won't write a letter
Although I always tell her
And so it's my assumption
I'm really up the junction

The Straits - Romeo and Juliet.

'When you can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold
you can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold.
You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin yeah,
Now you just say, oh Romeo yeah y'know I used to have a scene with him.'

The rest of the song as well. Oh and most of what DS wrote!

Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze.
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.
And I love to live so pleasantly,
Live this life of luxury,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.

When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark

At the end of the storm
Is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of the lark

Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown

Walk on walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
