Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain. Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell? And did they get you trade your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage? How I wish, how I wish you were here. We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year, running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears, wish you were here. Creedence Clearwater Revival — “Born on The Bayou” Now, when I was just a little boy, Standin’ to my daddy’s knee, My poppa said, son, don’t let the man get you Do what he done to me. ’cause he’ll get you, ’cause he’ll get you now, now. And I can remember the fourth of july, Runnin’ through the backwood, bare. And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin’, Chasin’ down a hoodoo there. Chasin’ down a hoodoo there. Chorus: Born on the bayou; Born on the bayou; Born on the bayou. Wish I was back on the bayou. Rollin’ with some cajun queen. Wishin’ I were a fast freight train, Just a chooglin’ on down to new orleans. Chorus Do it, do it, do it, do it. oh, lord. Oh get back boy. I can remember the fourth of july, Runnin’ through the backwood bare. And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin’, Chasin’ down a hoodoo there. Chasin’ down a hoodoo there. Chorus All right! do, do, do, do. Mmmmmm, oh. clever clever quotation - attention getting quote - sad yet witty remark - look at me!

David Bowie - Life On Mars Lyrics
===== It's a god-awful small affair To the girl with the mousy hair But her mummy is yelling "No" And her daddy has told her to go But her friend is nowhere to be seen Now she walks through her sunken dream To the seat with the clearest view And she's hooked to the silver screen But the film is a saddening bore For she's lived it ten times or more She could spit in the eyes of fools As they ask her to focus on Sailors fighting in the dance hall Oh man! Look at those cavemen go It's the freakiest show Take a look at the Lawman Beating up the wrong guy Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know He's in the best selling show Is there life on Mars? It's on Amerikas tortured brow That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow Now the workers have struck for fame 'Cause Lennon's on sale again See the mice in their million hordes From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads Rule Britannia is out of bounds To my mother, my dog, and clowns But the film is a saddening bore 'Cause I wrote it ten times or more It's about to be writ again As I ask you to focus on Sailors fighting in the dance hall Oh man! Look at those cavemen go It's the freakiest show Take a look at the Lawman Beating up the wrong guy Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know He's in the best selling show Is there life on Mars? clever clever quotation - attention getting quote - sad yet witty remark - look at me!

Here's two from Zeppelin that I love...
Sick Again (Page/Plant) From the window of your rented limousine, I saw your pretty blue eyes One day soon you're gonna reach sixteen, Painted lady in the city of lies. Oh, do you know my name? Do I look the same You know I'm the one you want. I must be the one you need, yeah Clutching pages from your teenage dream In the lobby of the Hotel Paradise Through the circus of the L.A. queens. How fast your learn the downhill side Oh, do you know my name? Do I look the same You know I'm the one you want. I must be the one you need,. Lips like cherries and the brow of a queen, Come on, flash it in my eyes Said you dug me since you were thirteen,Then you giggle as you heave and sigh. Oh, do you know my name? Do I look the same You know I'm the one you want. I must be the one you need. Hours, hours, and the moments in between, Oh, baby, I couldn't count the times the fun of comin', oh the pain in leavin', Baby, dry those silver eyes Oh, do you know my name? Do I look the same You know I'm the one you want. I must be the one you need, Ooh, that's right. I love this one because it's about their hedonistic days in L.A. and all the groupies that they knew in the beginning of their career and how many of them became drug addicts after being in the scene for too long. It's a very telling song because it really paints a picture of how they were all living their lives back then in the mid 70's. And the second one is: All My Love (Jones/Plant) Should I fall out of love, my fire in the light To chase a feather in the wind Within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight There moves a thread that has no end. For many hours and days that pass ever soon the tides have caused the flame to dim At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom Is this to end or just begin? * Chorus: All of my love, all of my love, All of my love to you. (repeat) The cup is raised, the toast is made yet again One voice is clear above the din Proud Aryan one word, my will to sustain For me, the cloth once more to spin Chorus Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time his is the force that lies within Ours is the fire, all the warmth we can find He is a feather in the wind Chorus Plant wrote that one for his son, who died at age 6 from a viral infection. "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.
See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly. I’m crying. Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come. Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody tuesday. Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen. I am the walrus, goo goo g’joob. Mister city policeman sitting Pretty little policemen in a row. See how they fly like lucy in the sky, see how they run. I’m crying, I’m crying. I’m crying, I’m crying. Yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog’s eye. Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess, Boy, you been a naughty girl you let your knickers down. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen. I am the walrus, goo goo g’joob. Sitting in an english garden waiting for the sun. If the sun don’t come, you get a tan From standing in the english rain. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen. I am the walrus, goo goo g’joob g’goo goo g’joob. Expert textpert choking smokers, Don’t you think the joker laughs at you? See how they smile like pigs in a sty, See how they snied. I’m crying. Semolina Pilchard, climbing up the Eiffel Tower. Elementary penguin singing hari krishna. Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen. I am the walrus, goo goo g’joob g’goo goo g’joob. Goo goo g’joob g’goo goo g’joob g’goo. | |

Queen Killer
She keeps her Moet et Chandon In A pretty cabinet 'Let them eat cake' she says Just like Marie Antoinette Buildin' a remedy For Kruschev and Kennedy At anytime an invitation You can't decline Caviar and cigarettes Well versed in etiquette Extraordinarily nice Chorus She's a Killer Queen Gunpowder, gelatine Dynamite with a laser beam Guaranteed to blow your mind Anytime Recommended at the price Insatiable in appetite Wanna try? To avoid complications She never kept the same address In conversation She spoke just like a baroness Met a man from China Went down to Geisha Minor Then again incidentally If you're that way inclined Perfume came naturally from Paris For cars, she couldn't care less Fastidious and precise Chorus Drop of a hat she's as willing as Playful as a pussy cat Then momentarily out of action Temporarily out of gas SHE'LL absolutely drive you wild, wild She's out to get you Chorus Recommended at the price Insatiable in appetite Wanna try? You wanna try clever clever quotation - attention getting quote - sad yet witty remark - look at me!

Off course there's...
...this guy. The Wind Cries Mary After all the jacks are in their boxes, and the clowns have all gone to bed, you can hear happiness staggering on down the street, footprints dress in red. And the wind whispers Mary. A broom is drearily sweeping up the broken pieces of yesterday's life. Somewhere a Queen is weeping, somewhere a King has no wife. And the wind it cries Mary. The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow And shine their emptiness down on my bed, The tiny island sags downstream 'Cos the life that they lived is dead. And the wind screams Mary. Will the wind ever remember The names it has blown in the past, And with this crutch, its old age and its wisdom It whispers, "No, this will be the last." And The Wind Cries Mary. Little Wing Well, she's walking through the clouds, With a circus mind that's running wild, Butterflies and Zebras, And Moonbeams and fairy tales. That's all she ever thinks about. Riding with the wind. When I'm sad, she comes to me, With a thousand smiles she gives to me free. It's alright, she says it's alright, Take anything you want from me, Anything. Fly on little wing. One Rainy Wish Golden rose, the color of the dream I had Not too long ago A misty blue and the lillac too A never to grow old. A there you were under the tree of song Sleeping so peacefully In your hand a flower played A waiting there for me. I have never Laid eyes on you Not like a before This timeless day A but you walked and ya ha Once smiled my name And you stole My heart away A stole my heart away little girl, yeah All right ! Golden rose, the color of the dream I had Not too long ago Misty blue and lillac too A never to grow old. Golden rose, the color of the dream I had Misty blue and lillac too Golden rose, the color of the dream I had Misty blue and lillac too Gold and rose, gold and rose, gold and rose. It's only a dream I'd love to tell somebody about this dream The sky was filled with a thousand stars While the sun kissed the mountains blue And eleven moons played across rainbows Above me and you. Gold and rose the color of the velvet walls surround us. 1983... (A merman I should turn to be) Hurray I awake from yesterday Alive but the war is here to stay So my love Catherina and me Decide to take our last walk Through the noise to the sea Not to die but to be re-born Away from a life so battered and torn.... Forever... Oh say can you see its really such a mess Every inch of earth is a fighting nest Giant pencil and lip-stick tube shaped things Continue to rain and cause screaming pain And the arctic stains From silver blue to bloody red As our feet find the sand And the sea is strait ahead.. Strait ahead..... Well its too bad That our friends Cant be with us today Well thats too bad "The machine That we built Would never save us" That's what they say (That's why they aint coming with us today) And they also said "It's impossible for man To live and breath underwater.. Forever" was their main complaint (Yeah) And they also threw this in my face: They said Anyway You know good well It would be beyond the will of God And the grade of the King (Grace of the King yeah yeah) So my darling and I Make love in the sand To salute the last moment Ever on dry land Our machine has done its work Played its part well Without a scratch on our bodies And we bid it farewell Starfish and giant foams Greet us with a smile Before our heads go under We take a last look At the killing noise Of the out of style... The out of style, out of style If 6 Was 9 If the sun refuse to shine, I don't mind, I don't mind, If the mountains fell in the sea, let it be, it ain't me. Alright, 'cos I got my own world to look through, And I ain't gonna copy you. Now if 6 turned out to be 9, I don't mind, I don't mind, Alright, if all the hippies cut off all their hair, I don't care, I don't care. Dig, 'cos I got my own world to live through And I ain't gonna copy you. White collared conservative flashing down the street, Pointing their plastic finger at me. They're hoping soon my kind will drop and die, But I'm gonna wave my freak flag high, high. Wave on, wave on Fall mountains, just don't fall on me Go ahead on Mr. Business man, you can't dress like me. Sing on Brother, play on drummer. Voodoo Chile Well, I'm a voodoo chile Lord I'm a voodoo chile Well, the night I was born Lord I swear the moon turned a fire red The night I was born I swear the moon turned a fire red Well my poor mother cried out "lord, the gypsy was right!" And I seen her fell down right dead (Have mercy) Well, mountain lions found me there waitin' And set me on a eagles back Well, mountain lions found me there, And set me on a eagles wing (Its' the eagles wing, baby, what did I say) He took me past to the outskirts of infinity, And when he brought me back, He gave me a venus witch's ring Hey! And he said "Fly on, fly on" Because I'm a voodoo chile, baby, voodoo chile Hey! Well, I make love to you, And lord knows you'll feel no pain Say, I make love to you in your sleep, And lord knows you felt no pain (Have mercy) 'Cause I'm a million miles away And at the same time I'm right here in your picture frame (Yeah! What did I say now) 'Cause I'm a voodoo chile Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile Well my arrows are made of desire From far away as Jupiters sulphur mines Say my arrows are made of desire, desire From far away as Jupiters sulphur mines (Way down by the Methabe Sea, yeah) I have a humming bird and it hums so loud, You think you were losing your mind, hmmm... Well I float in liquid gardens And Arizona new red sand (Yeah) I float in liquid gardens Way down in Arizona red sand Well, I taste the honey from a flower named Blue, Way down in California And the New York drowns as we hold hands 'Cause I'm a voodoo chile Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile Voodoo Child (slight return) Well, I stand up next to a mountain And I chop it down with the edge of my hand Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island Might even raise a little sand Yeah 'Cause I'm a voodoo child Lord knows I'm a voodoo child baby I want to say one more last thing I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time I'll give it right back to ya one of these days Hahaha I said i didn't mean to take up all your sweet time I'll give it right back one of these days Oh yeah If i don't meet you no more in this world then uh I'll meet ya on the next one And don't be late Don't be late 'Cause I'm a voodoo child voodoo child Lord knows i'm a voodoo child tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn.

Your everlasting summer
You can see it fading fast So you grab a piece of something That you think is gonna last You wouldn't know a diamond If you held it in your hand The things you think are precious I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine You been tellin' me you're a genius Since you were seventeen In all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean The weekend at the college Didn't turn out like you planned The things that pass for knowledge I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine I spend a lot of money And I spent a lot of time The trip we made in Hollywood Is etched upon my mind After all the things we've done and seen You find another man The things you think are useless I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine | |

Sweet child in time, you'll see the line
The line that's drawn between good and bad See the blind man shooting at the world. Bullets flying, taking toll If you've been bad, oh Lord, I bet you have And you've not been hit, oh, by flying lead You'd better close your eyes. Oh, bow your head. Wait for the ricochet... | |

They sat together in the park
As the evening sky grew dark, She looked at him and he felt a spark tingle to his bones. 'Twas then he felt alone and wished that he'd gone straight And watched out for a simple twist of fate. They walked along by the old canal A little confused, I remember well And stopped into a strange hotel with a neon burnin' bright. He felt the heat of the night hit him like a freight train Moving with a simple twist of fate. A saxophone someplace far off played As she was walkin' by the arcade. As the light bust through a beat-up shade where he was wakin' up, She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate And forgot about a simple twist of fate. He woke up, the room was bare He didn't see her anywhere. He told himself he didn't care, pushed the window open wide, Felt an emptiness inside to which he just could not relate Brought on by a simple twist of fate. He hears the ticking of the clocks And walks along with a parrot that talks, Hunts her down by the waterfront docks where the sailers all come in. Maybe she'll pick him out again, how long must he wait Once more for a simple twist of fate. People tell me it's a sin To know and feel too much within. I still believe she was my twin, but I lost the ring. She was born in spring, but I was born too late Blame it on a simple twist of fate. | |

Over The Hills And Far Away - Led Zeppelin
Hey lady--you got the love I need Maybe more than enough. Oh Darling... walk a while with me You've got so much... Many have I loved - Many times been bitten Many times I've gazed along the open road. Many times I've lied - Many times I've listened Many times I've wondered how much there is to know. Many dreams come true and some have silver linings I live for my dream and a pocketful of gold. Mellow is the man who knows what he's been missing Many many men can't see the open road. Many is a word that only leaves you guessing Guessing 'bout a thing you really ought to know, ooh! You really ought to know... | |

In these days of changing ways So called liberated days A story comes to mind of a friend of mine Georgie boy was gay I guess Nothin’ more or nothin’ less The kindest guy I ever knew His mother’s tears fell in vain The afternoon george tried to explain That he needed love like all the rest Pa said there must be a mistake How can my son not be straight After all I’ve said and done for him Leavin’ home on a greyhound bus Cast out by the ones he loves A victim of these gay days it seems Georgie went to new york town Where he quickly settled down And soon became the toast of the great white way Accepted by manhattan’s elite In all the places that were chic No party was complete without george Along the boulevards he’d cruise And all the old queens blew a fuse Everybody loved georgie boy The last time I saw george alive Was in the summer of seventy-five He said he was in love I said I’m pleased George attended the opening night Of another broadway hype But split before the final curtain fell Deciding to take a short cut home Arm in arm they meant no wrong A gentle breeze blew down fifth avenue Out of a darkened side street came A new jersey gang with just one aim To roll some innocent passer-by There ensued a fearful fight Screams rang out in the night Georgie’s head hit a sidewalk cornerstone A leather kid, a switchblade knife He did not intend to take his life He just pushed his luck a little too far that night The sight of blood dispersed the gang A crowd gathered, the police came An ambulance screamed to a halt on fifty-third and third Georgie’s life ended there But I ask who really cares George once said to me and I quote He said ’never wait or hesitate Get in kid, before it’s too late You may never get another chance ’cos youth a mask but it don’t last Live it long and live it fast’ Georgie was a friend of mine Oh georgie stay, don’t go away Georgie please stay you take our breath away Oh georgie stay, don’t go away Georgie please stay you take our breath away Oh georgie stay, don’t go away Georgie, georgie please stay you take our breath away Oh georgie stay WHAT IF THERE IS NO TOMORROW? THERE WASN'T ONE TODAY! | |

...Steely Dan... PRETZEL LOGIC I would love to tour the Southland In a travelling minstrel show Yes I'd love to tour the Southland In a traveling minstrel show Yes I'm dying to be a star and make them laugh Sound just like a record on the phonograph Those days are gone forever Over a long time ago, oh yeah I have never met Napoleon But I plan to find the time I have never met Napoleon But I plan to find the time 'Cause he looks so fine upon that hill They tell me he was lonely, he's lonely still Those days are gone forever Over a long time ago, oh yeah I stepped up on the platform The man gave me the news He said, You must be joking son Where did you get those shoes? Where did you get those shoes? Well, I've seen 'em on the TV, the movie show They say the times are changing but I just don't know These things are gone forever Over a long time ago, oh yeah DR WU Katy tried I was halfway crucified I was on the other side Of no tomorrow You walked in And my life began again Just when I'd spent the last piaster I could borrow All night long We would sing that stupid song And every word we sang I knew was true Are you with me Doctor Wu Are you really just a shadow Of the man that I once knew Are you crazy are you high Or just an ordinary guy Have you done all you can do Are you with me Doctor Don't seem right I've been strung out here all night I've been waiting for the taste You said you'd bring to me Biscayne Bay Where the Cuban gentlemen sleep all day I went searching for the song You used to sing to me Katy lies You could see it in her eyes But imagine my surprise When I saw you Are you with me Doctor Wu Are you really just a shadow Of the man that I once knew She is lovely yes she's sly And you're an ordinary guy Has she finally got to you Can you hear me Doctor tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 "Pretzel Logic" is another one I listen to daily.

This is the most kick ass song when it comes to lyrics
Pink Floyd Dogs (Waters, Gilmour) 17:06 You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need. You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street, You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed. And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight, You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking. And after a while, you can work on points for style. Like the club tie, and the firm handshake, A certain look in the eye and an easy smile. You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to, So that when they turn their backs on you, You'll get the chance to put the knife in. You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder. You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older. And in the end you'll pack up and fly down south, Hide your head in the sand, Just another sad old man, All alone and dying of cancer. And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown. And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone. And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around. So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone, Dragged down by the stone. I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused. Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used. Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise. If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze? Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend. And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner And everything's done under the sun, And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer. Who was born in a house full of pain. Who was trained not to spit in the fan. Who was told what to do by the man. Who was broken by trained personnel. Who was fitted with collar and chain. Who was given a pat on the back. Who was breaking away from the pack. Who was only a stranger at home. Who was ground down in the end. Who was found dead on the phone. Who was dragged down by the stone. | |

Since we're talking about Pink Floyd, I love "Comfortably Numb"...
Hello.... Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone home? Come on, now. I hear you’re feeling down. Well I can ease your pain, Get you on your feet again. Relax. I need some information first. Just the basic facts: Can you show me where it hurts? There is no pain, you are receding. A distant ship’s smoke on the horizon. You are only coming through in waves. Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re sayin’. When I was a child I had a fever. My hands felt just like two balloons. Now I got that feeling once again. I can’t explain, you would not understand. This is not how I am. I have become comfortably numb. Ok. Just a little pinprick. [ping] There’ll be no more --aaaaahhhhh! But you may feel a little sick. Can you stand up? I do believe it’s working. good. That’ll keep you going for the show. Come on it’s time to go. There is no pain, you are receding. A distant ship’s smoke on the horizon. You are only coming through in waves. Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re sayin’. When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse, Out of the corner of my eye. I turned to look but it was gone. I cannot put my finger on it now. The child is grown, the dream is gone. I have become comfortably numb.

this one has a sweetness to it.
I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon But to settle down and write you a line I’ve been meaning to phone you but from minnesota Hell it’s been a very long time You wear it well A little old fashioned but that’s all right Well I suppose you’re thinking I bet he’s sinking Or he wouldn’t get in touch with me Oh I ain’t begging or losing my head I sure do want you to know that you wear it well There ain’t a lady in the land so fine Remember them basement parties, your brother’s karate The all day rock and roll shows Them homesick blues and radical views Haven’t left a mark on you, you wear it well A little out of time but I don’t mind But I ain’t forgetting that you were once mine But I blew it without even tryin’ Now I’m eatin’ my heart out Tryin’ to get a letter through Since you’ve been gone it’s hard to carry on I’m gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in town When you sat down and cried on the stairs You knew it did not cost the earth, but for what it’s worth You made me feel a millionaire and you wear it well Madame onassis got nothing on you Anyway, my coffee’s cold and I’m getting told That I gotta get back to work So when the sun goes low and you’re home all alone Think of me and try not to laugh and I wear it well I don’t object if you call collect ’cos I ain’t forgetting that you were once mine But I blew it without even tryin’ Now I’m eatin’ my heart out tryin’ to get back to you After all the years I hope it’s the same address Since you’ve been gone it’s hard to carry on | |
