I was born in a dump,
Mamma died and daddy got drunk,
Left me here to die or grow
In the middle of Tobacco Road.
Wo wo wo
Grew up in a rusty shack,
All I owned was hangin’ on my back.
Only you know how I loathe
This place called Tobacco Road,
But it’s home.
The only life I’ve ever known
Only you know how I loathe
Tobacco RoadGonna leave get a job
With the help and the grace from above
Save my money get rich I know,
Bring it back to Tobacco Road.
Wo wo wo
Bring dynamite and a crane,
Blow it up, start all over again.
Build a town, be proud to show,
Give the name Tobacco Road
But it’s home.
The only life I’ve ever known
I despise you ‘cos you’re filthy,
But I love you ‘cos you’re home.5 April, 2006 at 12:35 am #139123Pack up

6 April, 2006 at 5:42 pm #139124You say you want a revolution
Well you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it’s evolution
Well you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don’t you know you can count me out in
Don’t you know it’s gonna be alright
Don’t you know it’s gonna be alright
Don’t you know it’s gonna be alrightYou say you got a real solution
Well you know
We don’t all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well you know
We’re doing what we can
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait
Don’t you know it’s gonna be alright
Don’t you know it’s gonna be alright
Don’t you know it’s gonna be alrightYou say you’ll change the constitution
Well you know
We all love to change your head
You tell me it’s the institution
Well you know
You better free your mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain’t going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don’t you know it’s gonna be alright
Don’t you know it’s gonna be alright
Don’t you know it’s gonna be alrightOh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Alright, alright, alright
Alright

The trophy wives of the astronauts
And I won’t listen to their words
‘Cause I like
BirdsI don’t care for walkin’ down town
Crazy auto car gonna mow me down
Look at all the people like cows in a herd
Well I like
BirdsIf you’re small
And on a search
I’ve got a feeder for you to perch onI can’t stand in line at the store
The mean little people are such a bore
But it’s all right if you act like a turd
‘Cause I like
BirdsIf you’re small
And on a search
I’ve got a feeder for you to perch onIf you’re small
And on a search
I’ve got a feeder for you to perch on
I’ve got a feeder for you to perch onIf you’re small
And on a search
I’ve got a feeder for you to perch on
I’ve got a feeder for you to perch on…The Eels

13 April, 2006 at 10:51 pm #139126Driving through the long night
Trying to figure who’s right and who’s wrong
Now the kid has gone. I sit belted up tight,
She sucks on a match light, glowing bronze, steering on.
And I might be more of a man if I stopped this in it’s tracks
And said, come on, let’s go home. but she’s got the wheel,
And I’ve got nothing except what I have on.When you’re driving with the brakes on
When you’re swimming with your boots on,
It’s hard to say you love someone
And it’s hard to say you don’tTrying to keep the mood right, trying to steer the conversation from
The thing we’ve done.
She shuts up the ashtray, and I say it’s a long way back now hon
She just yawns. and we might get lost someplace
So desolate that no one where we’re from would ever come
But she’s got the wheel and I’ve got to deal from now on.But unless the moon falls tonight, unless continents collide,
Nothing’s gonna make me, break from her sideDel Amitri
Driving with the brakes on
15 April, 2006 at 3:15 am #139127I Will See You In Far Off Places
Nobody knows what human life is
Why we come
Why we go
So why then do I know
I will see you
I will see you
In far off places?The heart knows why I grieve
And yes one day I will close my eyes forever
But I will see you
I will see you
In far off placesIt’s so easy for us to sit together
But it’s so hard for our hearts to combine
And
Why?
And why?
Why?
Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?Destiny for some is to save lives
But destiny for some is to end lives
But there is no end
And I will see you
In far off placesIf your God bestows protection upon you
And if the USA doesn’t bomb you
I believe I will see you somewhere safe
Looking to the camera
Messing around
And pulling faces…MORRISSEY

Title: B!tchDon’t call, don’t come around
she said to me
for I have seen both sides of your soul now and it’s all I need to see
so I hide myself away to avoid this bitter tasteChorus
B!tch
You B!tchdon’t fall I won’t be there
now that you’re free
no matter how hard I try now
it just wasn’t meant to be
and I won’t communicate
it isn’t worth the hateChorus
B!tch
You B!tch
Chorus
B!tch
You B!tchdon’t call, don’t come around
don’t call, don’t come around16 April, 2006 at 2:43 am #139129Hold On My Heart
Hold on my heart
Just hold on to that feeling
We both know we’ve been here before
We both know what can happen
Hold on my heart
Cos I’m looking over your shoulder
Oh please don’t rush in this time
Don’t show her how you feel
Hold on my heart
Throw me a lifeline
I’ll keep a place for you
Somewhere deep inside
So hold on my heart
Please tell her to be patient
Cos there has never been a time
That I wanted something moreIf I can recall this feeling
And I know there’s a chance
Oh I will be there
Yes I will be there
Be there for you
Whenever you want me to
Whenever you call oh I will be there
Yes I will be thereHold on my heart
Don’t let her see you crying
No matter where I go
She’ll always be with me
So hold on my heart
Just hold on to that feeling
We both know we’ve been here before
We both know what can happen
So hold on my heart
Just hold on my heart
I’m gonna hold on to that heart
Hold on
Just hold on..Genesis

Who said
Broken pieces don’t mend
I say
I say to think againYou may
Take advice from all your friends
But I say
That I’m living in your headChorus
Just let it grow
Let it grow inside of you
Let it grow
Let it flow inside of you
Let it grow let it grow let it growShe said that its easy for men
And I said that we all feel the rain
Then she said
Move a little closer then
Who says that broken pieces don’t mendChorus
