the fool on a hill by the beatles
Day after day,
Alone on a hill,
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him,
They can see that he’s just a fool,
And he never gives an answer,But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning ’round.Well on the way,
Head in a cloud,
The man of a thousand voices talking perfectly loud
But nobody ever hears him,
or the sound he appears to make,
and he never seems to notice,But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning ’round.And nobody seems to like him,
they can tell what he wants to do,
and he never shows his feelings,But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning ’round.Ooh, ooh,
Round and round and round.And he never listens to them,
He knows that they’re the fools
They don’t like him,The fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning ’round.Ooh,
Round and round and round27 December, 2010 at 11:10 pm #140173Load up on guns,
Bring your friends
It’s fun to lose and to pretend

Oh no I know, a dirty word.Hello, hello, hello, hello?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, how low, how low?

A mulato!
An Albino!

13 January, 2011 at 11:01 pm #140174Be still my beating heart
It would be better to be cool
It’s not time to be open just yet
A lesson once learned is so hard to forget
Be still my beating heart
I’ll be taken for a fool
It’s not healthy to run at this pace
The blood runs so red to my faceI’ve been to every single book I know
To soothe the thoughts that plague me soSink like a stone that’s been thrown in the ocean
My logic has drowned in a sea of emotionStop before you start
Be still my beating heartRestore my broken dreams
Shattered like a fallen glass
I’m not ready to be broken just yet
A lesson once learned is so hard to forgetBe still my beating heart
You must learn to stand your ground
It’s not healthy to run at this pace
The blood runs so red to my faceI’ve been to every single book I know
To soothe the thoughts that plague me soStop before you start
Be still my beating heartNever to be wrong
Never to make promises that break
It’s like singing in the wind
Or writing on the surface of a lake
Now I wriggle like a fish caught on dry land
Struggle to avoid any help at handSink like a stone that’s been thrown in the ocean
My logic has drowned in a sea of emotionStop before you start
Be still my beating heart15 January, 2011 at 7:22 pm #140175Too Hot
Prince BusterToo hot, this town is too hot
(too hot, too hot)Now they calling in for the guns
About to spoil the rudeboy funs
But rudeboys never give up their guns
It’s too hot (too hot)No man can tell them what to do
(too hot, too hot)
Pound for pound, they say they’re ruder than you
(too hot, too hot)They are the boss, and no back talk
If mad, then have a coffin you like
And you choose your burial site
Pay for insurance, make up your will
Come out and take them
(fight them, fight them)The soldiers came back to you, without them
The police force are afraid, they can’t even touch them
(too hot, too hot)
Them say “If you think you’re bad, why don’t you come out yourself?”
These boys fighting for a fight, fight in the night
They don’t fight because it’s too hotToo hot, too hot
Too hot, too hot…19 January, 2011 at 11:41 pm #140176Now that I have found you
In the coolth of your evening smile
The shade of your parasol
And your love flows through me
Though I drink at your pool
I burn for you
I burn for..
You and I are lovers
When night time folds around our bed
In peace we sleep entwined
And your love flows through me
Though an ocean soothes my head
I burn for you
I burn for..
Stars will fall from dark skies
As ancient rocks are turning
Quiet fills our room
And your love flows through me
Though I lie here so still
I burn for you
I burn for you
I burn for…24 January, 2011 at 10:06 am #140177http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZpYVS2wqSY
I’m collecting people’s tears they cried because they miss you,
They fill the seas and all the lakes,
With memories the wind blew,
I’d run out of jars before a second could pass,
Didn’t have enough time with you to turn the hourglass.Pictures in my head
Suddenly appear
Why d’you have to go away
It’s all not very clear.Goodbye sweet angel
Sail away on teary seas
Tattooed the time we had
On my memory
My legs are weak.When I close my eyes I see you,
The dimples in your cheeks,
I forgot to thank you for the things
Cause I didn’t see you for weeks
Woke up this morning and hoped for a dream
But reality sat next to me and forced me to believe.Knocked down too soon
Like a skittle on the lanes
The man who took the wrong stop
From life’s fast moving train.Goodbye sweet angel
Sail away on teary seas
Tattooed the time we had
On my memory
My legs are weak.Funeral Flowers
Won’t make me believe
They can carry out the casket
And I’ll still expect to seeYou
YouCome round tomorrow and tell me all your news
I don’t ask for much from you
Sleep to my lullaby
Only give me one more chance
To say a last goodbyeSo
Goodbye sweet angel
Sail away on teary seas
Tattooed the time we had
On my memory
My legs are weak.12 February, 2011 at 11:37 pm #140178Woman In Love- Barbra Streisand
Life is a moment in space
Where the dream has gone
Its a lonelier place
I kiss the morning goodbye
But down inside you know we never know whyThe road is narrow and long
Where eyes meet eyes
And the feeling is strong
I turn away from the wall
I stumble and fall
But I give you it allI am a woman in love
And I’d do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It’s a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?With you eternally mine
In love there is no measure of time
We planned it all at the start
That you and I live in each others heartWe may be oceans away
But you feel my love and I hear what you say
No truth is ever a lie
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all..I am a woman in Love
And I’d do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It’s a right
I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?I am a woman in love
And I’m talking to you
I know how you feel
What a woman can do
It’s a right I defend
Over and over again…And I’d do anything to get you into my world
And hold you within
It’s a right I defend
Over and over again.2 March, 2011 at 4:45 pm #140179I’m in here, can anybody see me?
Can anybody help?I’m in here, a prisoner of history,
Can anybody help?Can’t you hear my call?
Are you coming to get me now?
I’ve been waiting for
You to come rescue me.
I need you to hold
All of the sadness I cannot
Live with inside of me.I’m in here, I’m trying to tell you something,
Can anybody help?I’m in here, I’m calling out but you can’t hear,
Can anybody help?Can’t you hear my call?
Are you coming to get me now?
I’ve been waiting for
You to come rescue me.
I need you to hold
All of the sadness I cannot
Live with inside of me.I’m crying out, I’m breaking down,
I am fearing it all,
Stuck inside these walls,
Tell me there is hope for me
Is anybody out there listening?Can’t you hear my call?
Are you coming to get me now?
I’ve been waiting for
You to come rescue me.
I need you to hold
All of the sadness I cannot
Live with inside of me.Can’t you hear my call?
Are you coming to get me now?
I’ve been waiting for
You to come rescue me.
I need you to hold
All of the sadness I cannot
Live with inside of me.I’m in here, can anybody see me?
Can anybody help?4 March, 2011 at 11:27 pm #140180I never thought you’d be a junkie because heroin is so passe.
But today, if you think that I don’t know about depression and emotional pain,
You’re insane, or you’re a fool who hasn’t paid attention to a word that I say.
In a way, I can’t help but feel responsible, I always knew that you were insane
With your pain, but I never thought you’d be a junkie because heroin is so passe, hey.Heroin is so passe, hey.
Herion is so passe, hey, hey.
AaaahSo passe nowadays.
You never thought you’d get addicted, just be cooler in an obvious way
I could say, shouldn’t you have got a couple piercings and decided maybe that you were gay,
In a way, I can’t help but feel responsible, I always knew that you were insane
With your pain, but I never thought you’d be a junkie because heroin is so passe, hey.Heroin is so passe, hey.
Herion is so passe, hey, hey.
Ah ah ah ah, aaah, aaah, aaaah
Ah ah ah ah, aaah, aaah, aaaah
Ah ah ah ah, aaah, aaaaaaahHeroin is so passe, hey.
Heroin is so passe, hey
Heroin is so passe, hey, hey.The Dandy Warhols ~ Not If You Were The Last Junkie On Earth
16 March, 2011 at 2:08 am #140181Snow-bound siren in the winter dawn
There’s a blizzard blowing in from off the river
It’s ten below out on these city streets
But the feeling in your heart is even colder
The sunrise screeching down the line
And the fogbanks running out of time
But you won’t be here when they creep in tomorrow
Oh no..You’re tired of dreaming someone else’s dreams
When they really don’t include you any longer
Miles from home you’re sliding down with each day
And you need a woman’s love to make you stronger
And lately you’ve been getting doubts
A voice inside keeps calling out
That someone else’s dreams don’t get you to nowhereSo shut the suitcase kiss the year goodbye
Don’t let nobody stop you at the doorway
And close the shutters on this empty room
Where these crazy dreams come crawling to devour you
And head on out across that line
Where she’s been waiting all this time
And tell her that you want her there foreverIt’s still two hours till this plane gets down
Can hardly bare to wait another minute
Your sweet loving babe is all that I need
And darlin’ it’s been building up inside of me
Tonight we’ll go and paint this town
We’re gonna drink champagne till we both fall down
And we’ll find some other crazy dream tomorrow -
