The Song Lyrics I'd Like to Quote Today...

[SiHart]

It's not the side effects of the cocaine
I'm thinking that I must be in love

[SiHart]

Things I got so worried about
Are working out just fine.

[Si Hunt]

How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's no making sense of it
Every way I go I'm bound to lose

Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you
Every time

[SiHart]

When you wake up with me
I'll be your glass of water.
When you stick up for me
Then you're my bella bambino.

[SiHart]

I stand in front of you
and take the force of the blow...
Protection.

[Rob McCow]

Sex! And the Church.
Sex. And the Church.
Sex. Sex! SEX! And the Church.
And the Church.

[SiHart]

Do I disappoint you
by just being human?

[Si Hunt]

With you I've always been wide open
Like a window or an ocean
There is nothing
I've ever tried to hide

So when you leave me not knowin'
where you're goin'
I start thinkin'
that we're lookin',
we're lookin' at goodbye

How about a strong shot of honesty?
Don't you owe that to me?

If I'm not the one thing
you can't stand to lose
If I'm not that arrow to the heart of you
If you don't get drunk
on my kiss
If you think you can do better than this
Then I guess, we're done,
let's not drag this on

Consider me gone

Si.

[SiHart]

Dignity is val-u-able
But our lives are valuable too...

[SiHart]

She's a 20th century girl
With her hands on the wheel
Trying not to make him sick again
Seeing what she can borrow
London's so nice back in your seamless rhymes
But we're lost on the Westway

So we hold each other tightly
And hold on for tomorrow.

[Rob McCow]

High on diesel and gasoline,
Psycho for drum machine,
Shaking their bits to the hits yeah,
Drag acts, drug acts, suicides,
In your dad's suits you hide,
Staining his name again.

Oh here they come, the Beautiful Ones!

[Si Hunt]

It started out as the worst day,
But now you got me feeling like its my birthday,
You got me singing like oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (it's my birthday)
You got me like oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (it's my birthday)
Wanting to play with my life line,
Till you came along and brought a piece of sunshine
You got me singing like oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (it's my birthday)
You got me like oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (it's my birthday)

[SiHart]

Isn't it a pity
Now, isn't it a shame
How we break each other's hearts
And cause each other pain
How we take each other's love
Without thinking anymore
Forgetting to give back
Isn't it a pity

Some things take so long
But how do I explain
When not too many people
Can see we're all the same
And because of all their tears
Their eyes can't hope to see
The beauty that surrounds them
Isn't it a pity

Isn't it a pity
Isn't is a shame
How we break each other's hearts
And cause each other pain
How we take each other's love
Without thinking anymore
Forgetting to give back
Isn't it a pity

Forgetting to give back
Isn't it a pity
Forgetting to give back
Now, isn't it a pity

What a pity
What a pity, pity, pity
What a pity
What a pity, pity, pity

[Nyder]

Where did you leave your self respect
You like look like a reptile
Your house is a wreck
Your existence an insult
And stains that are suspect
Cover your clothes

[SiHart]

Who knows how long I've loved you
You know I love you still
Will I wait a lonely lifetime
If you want me to, I will.

For if I ever saw you
I didn't catch your name
But it never really mattered
I will always feel the same.

Love you forever and forever
Love you with all my heart
Love you whenever we're together
Love you when we're apart.

And when at last I find you
Your song will fill the air
Sing it loud so I can hear you
Make it easy to be near you
For the things you do endear you to me
Oh, you know, I will
I will.

[SiHart]

You
Are the one that I long to be
I become what I want to see
The image of you wrapped around me
So I disappear 'til there's only you
In the space where i used to be
You can do what you will to me
Cos you've got me just where you want me
Hold me down so you can surround me.

I see you
I need you
I just want to learn how to be you
I see you
I need you
More than I can bear
To be like you.

[SiHart]

"I'm alive!" she cried,
"Though I don't know what it means..."

[Richard Brinck-Johnsen]

When wilt thou save the people?
Oh God of mercy when?
The People, Lord, the people,
Not thrones and crowns but men...

[SiHart]

Echoes of the Broadway Everglades,
With her mythical madonnas still walking in their shades:
Lenny Bruce, declares a truce and plays his other hand.
Marshall McLuhan, casual viewin, head buried in the sand.
Sirens on the rooftops wailing, but theres no ship sailing.
Groucho, with his movies trailing, stands alone with his punchline failing.
Klu Klux Klan serve hot soul food and the band plays In the Mood
The cheerleader waves her cyanide wand,
Theres a smell of peach blossom and bitter almonde.
Caryl Chessman sniffs the air and leads the parade, he know in a scent,
You can bottle all you made.
Theres Howard Hughes in blue suede shoes,
Smiling at the majorettes smoking Winston Cigarettes.
And as the song and dance begins,
The children play at home with needles; needles and pins.

[SiHart]

Wandering hearts,
Ticking together,
But always apart,
Open the door and the future restarts,
But I'd never claim you were mine,
Just if we were words we would rhyme.

Caution then regret,
A cowardly dog barking empty threats,
Backtracking,
Dancing,
As patterns are set,
But I'd never claim you were mine,
Just if we were words we would rhyme.

Picked and processed within twenty seven days,
Delivery free.
Send me round the globe and back again to you a flower.
Wheels come off and hobble over to the next replacement of choice.
But you were the sentence that gave me a voice,
Now I cry,
As we by the by.

And I will always wonder,
How it would be if we never had met,
Life would be easier,
But dull,
I suspect,
You'd ask me to keep it discreet,
So I'll sing a song of deceit,
And I'd never claim you were mine,
Just if we were words,
We would rhyme,
If we were words,
We would rhyme.

[SiHart]

Total surrender
Your touch is so tender
Your skin is like water
On a burning beach,
And it brings me relief.
It brings me relief.

[SiHart]

Ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaao ooooh!
All the things I could do
If I had a little money.
It's a rich man's world!

[Dino]

Mild apprehension
Blank dreams of the coming fun
Distort the odds of a turnaround
Gut screams out next to none
So turn it on
Tune it in
And stay inert
You say, "I've got the backbone"
The back way to escape the gun
Climbing a tree with a missing limb
And not saving anyone
And now it hurts
To stay at home
And see
Flash
The mirror ball's throwing mold
You can't get a grip if there's nothing to hold
See the flash catch a white lily laugh and wilt
But if you must smash a glass first fill it to the hilt

Plants
As far as I know are still
Still bending toward the light
And if we dance
Until the heart explodes
It'll make this place ignite
And even if this hall collapses
I can stand by my pillar of hope it's just
A case of Flash delirium

Here's a growing culture
Deep inside a corpse
Ages stuck together
Taking it to the source
Timeless desperation
Pictures on a screen scream
"Hey people, what does it mean?"

Comfort keeps us nice
So quick to donate everything (nothing arrives)
Die wolken drifting blinding smiles circling (einkreisen)
But time's tingling spines
Attaching hands to floor
The rosy-tinted flash

The hot dog's getting cold
And you'll never be as good as the Rolling Stones
Watch the birds in the airport gathering dirt
Crowd the clean magazine chick lifting up her skirt

(Why close one eye and try to
Pledge allegiance to the sun
When plastic ghosts start terrorizing everyone
Geometric troops aligning
Carried up to the burial mounds
My earthbound heart is heavy
Your heartbeat keeps things light
With the violence forever threatening the night
And even if this hall collapses
I can stand by my pillar of hope and trust)
Lines when I close my eyes and just
Aim blindly at the sun
And hear love
When the ghosts start singing terrorizing everyone
Geometric troops aligning
Carried up to the burial mounds with gold
It's a heavy load but your
Your rhythm makes it light and explode
Like a violent star keeps threatening the night
And even if this hall collapses
I can stand by my pillar of hope and trust
That our heads won't bust

66 55 red battleships
40 earthlike planets
3 holes 2 tits
1 fork in its side
Zero tears in their eyes

Sue the spiders
Sink the Welsh
Stab your Facebook
Sell, sell, sell
Undercooked
Overdone
Mass adulation not so funny
Poisoned honey
Pseudo-science
Silly money
You're my honey

[Paul Clement]

Except for the boy in the belfry
He's crazy, he's throwing himself
Down from the top of the tower
Like a hunchback in heaven
He's ringing the bells in the church
For the last half an hour
He sounds like he's missing something
Or someone that he knows he can't
Have now and if he isn't
I certainly am

[Stuart Wallis]

So now it's getting late,
And those who hesitate, got noone.
But they don't understand
And they don't hear the sound
It's like a waterfall
It's an illusion

Love is all, waterfall, love is what you are
Pulls you in, takes you down, it's a sad affair
But you know as you hold back the power there
Without the friends and lovers you could never go on living

Across the waterfall thats falling ever more
Down on you
Cascading through the days
And flowing on its way
That's how it has to be -
Just an illusion.
