Song Quotes/Lyrics

[spoken]
This is the greatest and best song in the world... Tribute.

Long time ago me and my brother Kyle here,
we was hitchhikin' down a long and lonesome road.
All of a sudden, there shined a shiny demon... in the middle... of the road.
And he said:

[sung]
"Play the best song in the world, or I'll eat your soul." (soul)

[spoken]
Well me and Kyle, we looked at each other,
and we each said... "Okay."

[sung]
And we played the first thing that came to our heads,
Just so happened to be,
The Best Song in the World, it was The Best Song in the World.

Look into my eyes and it's easy to see
One and one make two, two and one make three,
It was destiny.

Once every hundred-thousand years or so,
When the sun doth shine and the moon doth glow
And the grass doth grow...

Needless to say, the beast was stunned.
Whip-crack went his schwumpy tail,
And the beast was done.
He asked us: "(snort) Be you angels?"
And we said, "Nay. We are but men."

Rock!
Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh-ah-ah,
Ohhh, whoah, ah-whoah-oh!

This is not The Greatest Song in the World, no.
This is just a tribute.
Couldn't remember The Greatest Song in the World, no, no.
This is a tribute, oh, to The Greatest Song in the World,
All right! It was The Greatest Song in the World,
All right! It was the best muthaf***in' song the greatest song in the world.

gee, ooh de flliga goo gee ooga fligoo giggoo ooh fligoo giggoo ge gee oogah
goo gee oogah geegoogegegee, fligoo giggoo,oh flig, oh mama Lucifer

[spoken]
And the peculiar thing is this my friends:
the song we sang on that fateful night it didn't actually sound
anything like this song.

[sung]
This is just a tribute! You gotta believe me!
And I wish you were there! Just a matter of opinion.
Ah, f***! Good God, God lovin',
So surprised to find you can't stop it.

[skat]

All right! All right!

Vanessa Carlton- A Thousand Miles
Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces passed
And I'm home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd

And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight

It's always times like these
When I think of you
And I wonder
If you ever
Think of me

'Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong
Living in your
Precious memories

'Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight

And I, I
Don't want to let you know
I, I
Drown in your memory
I, I
Don't want to let this go
I, I
Don't....

Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces passed
And I'm home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd

And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass us by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you...

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
If I could
Just hold you
Tonight

Not exactly what I want to say but it'll work....

Now, don’t just walk away
Pretending everything’s ok
And you don’t care about me
And I know there’s just no use
When all your lies become your truths and I don’t care... yeah, yeah, yeah

Could you look me in the eye
And tell me that you’re happy now, ohhh, ohhh
Would you tell it to my face or have I been erased,
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?

You took all there was to take,
And left me with an empty plate
And you don’t care about it, yeah.
And I am givin' up this game
I’m leaving you with all the blame cause I don’t care, yeah, yeah yeah,

Could you look me in the eye?
And tell me that you’re happy now, oohh oohhh
Would you tell it to my face or have I been erased,
Are you happy now? Ohhh, ohhhh
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now? yeah, yeah, yeah.

Do you really have everything you want?
You can't ever give somethin' you ain't got
You can’t run away from yourself

Could you look me in the eye?
and tell me that you're happy now, yeah, yeah
come on, tell it to my face or have i been replaced,
are you happy now? Ohhh, ohhhh
are you happy now?

Would you look me in the eye?
Could you look me in the eye?
I’ve had all that I can take
I'm not about to break
Cause I’m happy now, ohhh, ohhh
Are you happy now?

Nice song by Simon and Garfunkel which I've been playing on my clarinet lately, its been wondering around in my head ever since.


When you're weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
I'm on your side. When times get rough
And friends just can't be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

When you're down and out,
When you're on the street,
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
I'll take your part.
When darkness comes
And pains is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.

I can't stop these feelings even if it hurts
the closer I get, the farther it moves away. If this a dream, is tomorrow black or white?

enduring the flames, I can't sleep more and more
the more I lie, the better I get at it

I'm still looking at my eyes in the mirror
my will to win overcomes my reticence

everyday life is so overbearing
I want to say "that doesn't suit you"

I can't stop these feelings even if it hurts
the closer I get, the farther it moves away. If this a dream, is tomorrow black or white?

in the city, people's lonely shadows pass me by
following their footsteps is a mistake

"I don't want anything" "I won't love anyone anymore"
this silent voice is lost in the darkness

I can't stop these feelings even if it hurts
the closer I get, the farther it moves away. Even if it's a dream, I'll keep following it

if the result is everything, then just laughing should be enough
I don't even need to move. Goddess, lend me your hand black or white!

I can't stop these feelings even if it hurts
I hold this whimsical truth in the palm of my hand

you don't need to love anyone other than yourself
if you can overcome the dawn by yourself, is tomorrow black or white???

Later,
Trisa

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why i need you to hear

I've found a resaon for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is You
and the reason is You
and the reason is You
and the reason is You

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you...........

This song goes to my orange vested and collar, Dorothy-replacement.

Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am home again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am whole again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am young again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am fun again

However far away I will always love you
However long I stay I will always love you
Whatever words I say I will always love you
I will always love you

Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am free again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am clean again

However far away I will always love you
However long I stay I will always love you
Whatever words I say I will always love you
I will always love you

I need an alarm system in my house, So i know when people are... creepin' about.. these people are freakin' me out (these days). Its geting hectic anywhere that i go, They wont leave me alone, Theres things they all wanna know. I'm paranoid about the people i meet, why are they talking to me? and can't anyone see?

I just wanna live
Don't really care about the things that they say
Don't really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live

I rock a law suit when I'm goin' to court, a white suit when I'm gettin' divorced,a black suit at the funeral home, and my birthday suit when I'm home alone talkin' on the phone, got an interview with the rollin' stone, They're sayin' "Now your rich, now your famous, fake ass girls all know your name and lifestyles of the rich and famous, your first hit, aren't you ashamed of the life, of the life, of the life were livin'?"

I just wanna live
Don't really care about the things that they say
Don't really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live

Stop your messin' around, boy. Better think of your future, better make some good plans boy. Said every one of our teachers. Look out, you better play it safe. Never know what hard times will come your way. We say, where we're comin' from we've already seen the worst that life can bring. Now we expect it everywhere that we go. All the things they say, yea we already know...

I just wanna live
don't really care about the things that they say
don't really care about what happens to me
(just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live)
I just wanna live
(just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live)
don't really care about the things that they say
don't really care about what happens to me
(just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live)
I just wanna live
(just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live)
I just wanna live...

Breaking the Habit--Linkin Park

Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
(unless I try to start again)

I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm
Breaking the habit
Tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again

I'll paint it on the walls
'Cause I'm the one at fault
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this
I'll never be alright
So I'm
Breaking the habit
Breaking the habit
Tonight

"broken"

Cover me
With poison,
So I can't see
This life that's leaving me;

And these promises
That were spoken
Are painted on these walls,
And my hands are sore

From holding up
This world you want from me,
This world you want from me;

So farewell and goodnight;
We're fractured and alive—
We're titans, we are heroes,
And we're broken;

Be strong,
Like a plate against a block,
Like the ticking of a clock—
We're imposters and we're broken;

So farewell and goodnight;
We're fractured and alive—
We're titans, we are heroes,
And we're broken;

Bon Jovi - Wanted Dead or Alive

It’s all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems we’re wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I’d drive all night just to get back home

Chorus:
I’m a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I’m wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it’s not for days
And the people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you’re all alone all you do is think

Chorus

I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps, ’cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere, still I’m standing tall
I’ve seen a million faces an I’ve rocked them all

I’m a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I’m wanted dead or alive
I’m a cowboy, I got the night on my side
I’m wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

Daniel Bedingfield - "Without The Girl"

And mama told me if I want her. I gotta take it slow
You just can’t tell her, you gotta find other ways to let her know
But I don’t understand this game
This is so new to me
I wanna tell her
I wanna take her in my arms

Give her time and maybe one-day she’ll come around
And see the love I am offering
‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl
Heaven knows everyday I pray
That someday she will belong to me
‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl

She is my sunshine but her heart belongs to another man
She looks right through me, she only ever though of us as friends
But I’ll keep holding back my heart
I will not let her see
I gonna bide my time
until the day she comes to me

Give her time and maybe one-day she’ll come around
And see the love I’m offering
‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl
Heaven knows, everyday I pray
That someday she will belong to me
‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl

Give her time and maybe one-day she’ll come around
And see the love I’m offering
‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl
Heaven knows, everyday I pray
That someday she will belong to me
‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl

I wonder how far we can go
Into a distant future with no answers
I'm still very small,
But as I have no time to be puzzled,
I ride on time because this age is going around.
Now I can feel a hot beat in my heart.

Clay: Let's go ahead, relying only on curiosity instead of anxiety!
Yamagi: Come on! We'll face darkness by staring at it!

No lookin' back!
Let's fly out at the speed of a meteor!
We won't be defeated by the stream of time,
The place that we aim towards is surely eternal.
Dreams are to be caught instead of seen!
Even the courage to always reach out my hand,
I'll never forget it--
I can get a dream!

I'll also have days that I'll be broken,
It's all right, in such times,
I'll whistle during the long nights.

Hiead: I believe that we can grow stronger by getting hurt.
Roose: Strong to protect those that we love

No lookin' back!
We'll yell running through the starry sky!
And remember the voice that
Is calling us far away,
We can get a dream!

Zero: We'll open the door of zero now,
Zero and Hiead: And keep on searching
All: For the meaning of our birth...
Ooh...


No lookin' back!
Let's fly out at the speed of a meteor!
We won't be defeated by the stream of time,
The place that we aim at is surely eternal.
Dreams are to be caught instead of seen.
The chance is always in our arms,
I won't let it go!
I can get a dream!

Later,
Trisa

This world
This world is cold...
But you don't...
You don't have to go...
You're feeling sad, you're feeling lonely, and no one seems to care...
Your mother's gone... and your father hits you...
This pain you cannot bear...

But we all bleed the same way as you do!!
And we all have the same things to go through!!

Hold on if you feel like letting go........
Hold on it gets better than you know......

Your days...
You say they're way too long
And your nights...
You can't sleep at all...
Hold on...
And you're not sure what you're waiting for, but you don't want to know more....
And you're not sure what you're looking for, but you don't want to know more...

But we all bleed the same way as you do!!
And we all have the same things to go through!!

Hold on if you feel like letting go......
Hold on it gets better than you know.....
Don't stop looking, you're one step closer!
Don't stop searching, it's not over!
Hold on!

What are you looking for?
What are you waiting for?
Do you know what you're doing to me?
Go ahead...What are you waiting for?

Hold on if you feel like letting go...
Hold on it gets better than you know...
Don't stop looking, you're one step closer!!
Don't stop searching, it's not over!!!!
Hold on if you feel like letting go!!
Hold on it gets better than you know!!

Hold on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Every generation
Blames the one before
And all of their frustrations
Come beating on your door

I know that I'm a prisoner
To all my Father held so dear
I know that I'm a hostage
To all his hopes and fears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years

Crumpled bits of paper
Filled with imperfect thought
Stilted conversations
I'm afraid that's all we've got

You say you just don't see it
He says it's perfect sense
You just can't get agreement
In this present tense
We all talk a different language
Talking in defence

Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye

So we open up a quarrel
Between the present and the past
We only sacrifice the future
It's the bitterness that lasts

So Don't yield to the fortunes
You sometimes see as fate
It may have a new perspective
On a different day
And if you don't give up, and don't give in
You may just be O.K.

Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye

I wasn't there that morning
When my Father passed away
I didn't get to tell him
All the things I had to say

I think I caught his spirit
Later that same year
I'm sure I heard his echo
In my baby's new born tears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years

Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye

Missing- Everything But The Girl

I step off the train
I'm walking down your street again
And past your door
But you don't live there any more
It's years since you've been there
And now you've disappeared somewhere
Like outer space
You've found some better place

And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain

Could you be dead?
You always were two steps ahead
Of everyone
We'd walk behind while you would run
I look up at your house
And I can almost hear you shout
Down to me
Where I always used to be

And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain

I'm back on the train
I ask why did I come again?
Can I confess
I've been hanging around your old address?
And the years have proved
To offer nothing since you moved
You're long gone
But I can't move on

And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you

I step off the train
I'm walking down your street again
Past your door
I guess you don't live there any more
It's years since you've been there
And now you've disappeared somewhere
Like outer space
You've found some better place

And I miss you... yeah
And I miss you
You've found some better place

And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you

And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain
The deserts miss the rain - like the deserts miss the rain
Like the deserts miss the rain - like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Try to make ends meet
You're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the veins meet yeah,

No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
But I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no

Well I never pray
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now

No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
I can't change
I can't change

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Try to make ends meet
Try to find some money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the things meet yeah

You know I can change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no

I can't change my mold
no, no, no, no, no,
I can't change
Can't change my body,
no, no, no

I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
Been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Have you ever been down?
Have you've ever been down?

Look at me
You make think you see
who I really am
But you'll never know me
Ev'ry day
It's as if I played a part
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool
my heart

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

I am now
in a world where I have to
hide my heart
And what I believe in
But somehow
I will show the world
What's inside my heart
And be loved for who I am

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection
someone I don't know?
Must I pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show
who I am inside?

There's a heart that must
be free to fly
That burns with a need
to know the reason why

Why must we all conceal
What we think
How we feel?
Must there be a secret me
I'm forced to hide?

I won't pretend that I'm
Someone else
For all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

Ohhh yeahhhh....

Spreading more Muse love - another song I can't get enough of...


"Space Dementia" - Muse

Height is the one for me
It gives me all I need
And helps me co-exist with the chill

You make me sick because I adore you so
I love all the dirty tricks
And twisted games you play on me

Space dementia in your eyes
Peace will arise and tear us apart
And make us meaningless again

You'll make us want to die
I'd cut your name in my heart
We'll destroy this world for you
I know you want me to feel your pain

Space dementia in your eyes
Peace will arise and tear us apart
And make us meaningless again


Latah
Token

I just popped in this CD right now. I had forgotten about this song...

You’ll get no answer from me
About what I want or what I get
Brave enough to speak afraid to see
Confuse the issue till you forget

And I’ve tried
To finally decide
Why
I’m in your face

And if you can’t already tell
I am unable to let things go
I’m told I do it very well
But more important you should know

That all the same
You’ve got no one to blame
But yourself
If you call that a waste

Cause it ain’t me
That’s been hurting you inside
And if you’ve learned
You’ll know much more than i

That you’re gonna have to go and find it
You’ll have to dig beneath the ground
You’ll have to unearth every ugly stone
That kept you on your own
And simply put them down
You’re gonna have to look around

You’ll get no answer from me
About what I get or what I want
That was enough to make her leave
She’s not the first one come and gone

And I don’t care
Buyer beware
Of me
Cause it might get rough

If you want peace then live alone
If you wanna hide then find a stage
Each a brief but perfect home
To accommodate your rage

And sometimes
In the midst of all my crimes
I feel lost
Or have I lost enough

Remaining friends
Remind me as they say
It’s up to you
The things you throw away

And still you’re gonna have to go and find it
You’ll have to dig beneath the ground
You’ll have to unearth every ugly stone
That kept you on your own
And simply put them down
You’re gonna have to look around
You’re gonna have to look around

You’re gonna have to look around
