starry-eyed pirate:
So...yeah,
umm...
"...You're eyes have died...
You see more than I...
Daniel you're the star in the faith of the sky..."
Is that right...??
"...Lord I miss him so much..."
This is the most profound song about $traight Inc. I've ever heard
Song about a cat who's seen some traumatic shit and then lost his common touch and been enshrined by some socially unacceptable knowledge.
Really diggin Elton John lately. Just picked up Tumbleweed Connection and his greatest hits(what is it ? 70-2002). The Tumbleweed Connection has the original Mad man Across the Water, which is cool, even though it's not as good as "the original" to me...still...cool to have. He had a great song writer, what's his name, bernie taupin...
...or just a song about "life"...
rock on.
fornitsfriend:
I wake up every evening
With a big smile on my face
And it never feels out of place.
And you're still probably working
At a 9 to 5 pace
I wonder how bad that tastes
When you see my face
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
Now where's your picket fence love
And where's that shiny car
Did it ever get you far?
You ever seem so dead slow
Never seen you fall so hard
Do you know where you are?
Truth be told I miss you
Truth be told I'm lying
When you see my face
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
If you find a man thats worth the damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool you're just as well hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
Tomorrow you'll be thinking to yourself
Where did it all go wrong?
But the list goes on and on
Truth be told I miss you
Truth be told I'm lying
When you see my face
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's worth the damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool you're just as well hope it gives you hell
Now you'll never see
What you've done to me
You can take back your memories
They're no good to me
And here's all your lies
If you look me in the eyes
With the sad, sad look
That you wear so well
When you see my face
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's worth the damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool you're just as well hope it gives you hell
When you see my face
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell (hope it gives you hell)
When you walk my way
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell (hope it gives you hell)
When you hear this song and you sing along well you'll never tell
And you're the fool I've just as well I hope it gives you hell
When you hear this song I hope that it will give you hell
You can sing along I hope that it puts you through hell
Froderik:
There's rows and rows of houses
With windows painted blue
With the light from a TV
Running parallel to you
But there is no sunken treasure
Rumored to be
Wrapped inside my ribs
In a sea black with ink
I am so
Out of tune
With you
I am so out of tune
With you
If I had a mountain
I'd try to fold it over
If I had a boat (probably roll over)
You know I'd probably roll over (leave it on the shore)
And I leave it on the shore (leave it for somebody)
I'd leave it for somebody
Surely there's somebody
Who needs it more than me
I am so
Out of tune
With you
I am so out of tune
With you
For all the leaves will burn
In autumn fires and then return
For all the fires we burn
All will return
Music is my savior
I was maimed by rock and roll
I was maimed by rock and roll
I was tamed by rock and roll
I got my name from rock and roll
Froderik:
If you're led around by your nose
You'll never get to see how the garden grows.
And if you go pushing someone in a hole
You can't stop and smell the roses.
Eighteen things at once
You spread yourself so thin.
You could not find a basket
To put all your eggs in.
Waiting on your foreign shore
The emperor got some brand new clothes.
But when you walk and chew gum
You gotta lose a little of something. Achtung!
Jack of all trades and a master of none
How can a person get anything done?
If you can fool yourself you can fool anyone.
JakJakJakJakJakJakJakJak
Jack of all trades...
Froderik:
Dear Mister Fantasy, play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar
Make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years.....
