"You Shouldn't Kiss Me Like This"

I've got a funny feeling
The moment that your lips touched mine
Something shot right through me
My heart skipped a beat in time

There's a different feel about you tonight
It's got me thinkin' lots of crazy things
I even think I saw a flash of light
It felt like electricity

You shouldn't kiss me like this
Unless you mean it like that
Cause I'll just close my eyes
And I won't know where I'm at
We'll get lost on this dance floor
Spinnin' around
And around
And around
And around

They're all watchin' us now
They think we're falling in love
They'd never believe we're just friends
When you kiss me like this
I think you mean it like that
If you do baby kiss me again

Everybody swears we make the perfect pair
But dancing is as far as it goes
Girl you've never moved me quite
The way you moved me tonight
I just wanted you to know
I just wanted you to know

You shouldn't kiss me like this
Unless you mean it like that
Cause I'll just close my eyes
And I won't know where I'm at
We'll get lost on this dance floor
Spinnin' around
And around
And around
And around

They're all watchin' us now
They think we're falling in love
They'd never believe we're just friends
When you kiss me like this
I think you mean it like that
If you do baby kiss me again
Kiss me again

i've posted these lyrics a million times, but they bear repeating, imho...

CLASS

The whole world's gone low-brow. Thing's ain't what
they used to be.


They sure ain't, Mama. They sure ain't it's all gone.


Whatever happened to fair dealing?
And pure ethics
And nice manners?
Why is it everyone now os a pain in the ass?
Whatever happened to class?


Class.
Whatever happened to, "Please, may I?"
And, "Yes, thank you?"
And, "How charming?"
Now, every son of a bitch is a snake in the grass
Whatever happened to class?


Class!
Ah, there ain't no gentlemen
To open up the doors
There ain't no ladies now,
There's only pigs and whores
And even kids'll knock ya down
So's they can pass
Nobody's got no class!


Whatever happened to old values?
And fine morals?
And good breeding?
Now, no one even says "oops" when they're
Passing their gas
Whatever happened to class?


Class

Ah, there ain't no gentlemen
That's fit for any use
And any girl'd touch your privates
For a deuce
And even kids'll kick your shins and give you sass
And even kids'll kick your shins and give you sass
Nobody's got no class!


All you read about today is rape and theft
Jesus Christ, ain't there no decency left?
Nobody's got no class!


Every guy is a snot!
Every girl is a twat!
Holy shit
Holy shit
What a shame
What a shame
What became of class?

Jesus (the Missing Years)


It was raining, it was cold
West Bethlehem was no place for a twelve-year-old
So he packed his bags and he headed out
To find out what the world's about
He went to France, he went to Spain
He found love, he found pain
He found stores, so he started to shop
But he had no money, so he got in trouble with a cop

...Kid's in trouble with the cops, from Israel, didn't have no home
So he cut his hair and moved to Rome
It was there he met his Irish bride
And they rented a flat on the Lower East Side
Of Rome
...Italy that is
Music publishers...book binders...bible belters,
Swimming pools...orgies...and lots of pretty I-talian chicks!

Charlie bought some popcorn
Billy bought a car
Someone almost bought the farm
But they didn't go that far
Things shut down at midnight
At least 'round here they do
Cause we all reside down the block inside
At 23 Skidoo

Wine was flowing, so were beers
So Jesus found his missing years
He went to a dance and said This don't move me
So he hiked up his pants and went to a movie
On his thirteenth birthday he saw Rebel Without a Cause
He went straight on home and invented Santa Claus
Who gave him a gift
And he responded in kind
He gave the gift of love and went out of his mind

...You see him and the wife wasn't gettin' along
So he took out his guitar and he wrote a song
Called "The Dove of Love Fell off the Perch"
But he couldn't get divorced in the Catholic Church
...At least not back then, anyhow

Jesus was a good guy, he didn't need this shit
So he took a pill with a Coca-Cola and he swallowed it
He discovered the Beatles
He recorded with the Stones
Once he even opened up a three-way package for ol' George Jones!

The years passed by like sweet little days
With babies crying, pork chops and Beaujolais
When he woke up he was seventeen
The world was angry, the world was mean
Why the man down the street and the kid on the stoop
All agreed that life stank, all the world smelled like poop
...Baby poop, that is - the worst kind!

So he grew his hair long and threw away his comb
And headed back to Jerusalem to find Mom, Dad and home
But when he got there, the cupboard was bare
Except for an old black man with a fishing rod
He said, Whatcha gonna be when you grow up?
Jesus said, God.

Oh my God! what have I gotten myself into?!
I'm a human corkscrew and all my wine is blood!
They're gonna kill me Mama
They don't like me, bud

So Jesus went to heaven and he went there awful quick
All them people killed him and he wasn't even sick
So come and gather around me, my contemporary peers
And I'll tell you all the story
Of Jesus ... the missing years

I cannot help it I couldn't stop it if I tried
The same old heartbeat fills the emptiness I have inside
And I've heard that you can't fight love, so I won't complain
'Cause why would I stop the fire that keeps me going on?

'Cause when there's you, I feel whole
And there's no better feeling in the world
But without you I'm alone
And I'd rather be in love with you

Turn out the lights now
To see is to believe
I just want you near me
I just want you here with me
And I'd give up everything only for you
It's the least that I could do

'Cause when there's you, I feel whole
And there's no better feeling in the world
But without you I'm alone
And I'd rather be in love with you

And I feel you holding me

Why are we afraid to be in love?
To be loved
I can't explain it
I know it's tough to be loved

And I feel you holding me

Oh, oh
And when there's you, I feel whole
And there's no better feeling in the world
But without you I'm alone

And I'd rather be in love
Yes, I'd rather be in love
Oh, I'd rather be in love with you

And I feel you holding me, oh

Does this mean you stole the girl of that guy who went off to school?

I've actually moved on from her. She's got some problems that I don't want any part of.

your life is complicated, isn't it.

she shadows me in the mirror
and never leaves on the light
some things that i say to her
they just don't seem to bite

it's all mixed up (x3)

she tricks me into thinking
i can't believe my eyes
i wait for her forever
she never does arrive

it's all mixed up (x3)

she says to leave it to me
and everything will be alright
she says to leave it to me
and everything will be alright

she's always out making pictures
she's always out making scenes
she's always out the window
when it comes to making dreams

You don't know the half of it. I don't post that much about it anymore, but it's interesting at the very least.

hopefully for the better bro.

I never knew
I never knew that everything was falling through
That everyone I knew was waiting on a queue
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
But that's how it's got to be
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy
I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears

Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind

Let's rearrange
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage
Just say that we agree and then never change
Soften a bit until we all just get along
But that's disregard
Find another friend and you discard
As you lose the argument in a cable car
Hanging above as the canyon comes between

Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind

Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind

And suddenly I become a part of your past
I'm becoming the part that don't last
I'm losing you and its effortless
Without a sound we lose sight of the ground
In the throw around
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves

And everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind

Everyone knows
She's on your mind
Everyone knows I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
I'm in over...

Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind

I am a man
Cut from the know
Rarely do friends
Come and then go
She was a girl
Soft but estranged
We were the two
Our lives rearranged
Feeling so good that day
A feeling of love that day

Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
You're breaking the girl
She meant you no harm

[chorus]
Think you're so clever
But now you must sever
You're breaking the girl
He loves no one else

Raised by my dad
Girl of the day
He was my man
That was the way
She was the girl
Left alone
Feeling the need
To make me her home
I don't know what when or why
The twilight of love had arrived

[chorus]

Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
You're breaking the girl
She meant you no harm

[chorus]
Think you're so clever
But now you must sever
You're breaking the girl
He loves no one else

a right turn gone wrong.
nothing but the dust
left to fill your lungs up.
have to choke and choke and choke.

Traces

Daylight can never really
Hide what's alive
I know it's hard
Sometimes for your to tell
Where you end
And where the world begins

You do your best to
Avoid assimilation
Guess that's the best you can do

And though the parts of it that matter change
All traces disintegrate

At night
My mind's exhausted(?) and
Drained out of thought
And can't get back up
And when you know
How few things there are worth knowing
I suppose anyone who tries could forget

Responding now
To trains that crash before you
Never thought crashing could happen to you

And though the parts of it that matter change
All traces disintegrate

I did a sick, sick thing to my love.
My lack of loyalty, it swallowed her up.
And she cooks me food.
She squirmed and turned like a skeleton key.

She left her man unattended to me.
Don't call me that.
Don't claim you love me
cause you know that ain't true.

And you're finally free
to twist and turn like a skeleton key.

You've gotta let me know.
You've gotta let me know.

I did a horrible thing to that girl.
I bread my misery and drowned it in her.
And she got me high,
And I hardly noticed there were tears in her eyes.

And I miss you less and less everyday.
This stream of whisky helps to wash you away.

And it's clear to see,
You're nothing special.
You're a skeleton key.

You've gotta let me know.
You've gotta let me know.
You've gotta let me know.
You've gotta let me know.

Whooo!

Lost your wife
Lost your son
Stay out drinking till the morning comes
Yeah
What can a poor boy do
Better go back to your mama
She'll take care of you

Country girl
Take my hand
Lead me thru this diseased land
I have I have I have (no idea)
I have stole
I have sinned
Oh my soul
Its unclean
Country girl
Gotta keep on keeping on

Crazy women
Mess your head up
Wake up drunk and beaten
In some strange bed
Yeah
What can a poor boy do
Better go back to your mama
Shell take care of you

Country girl
Take my hand
Lead me thru this diseased land
I have I have I have
I have stole
I have sinned
Oh my soul
Its unclean
Country girl

Gotta keep on keeping on
Gotta keep on keeping on
Gotta keep on keeping strong
Gotta keep on keeping on
With you
Got the riot city blues

What do you have to say
Before I have to go
Be careful what you say
Youll reap just what you sow
Yeah
What can a poor boy do
Better go back to yr mama
Shell take care of you

One last time

Country girl
Take my hand
Lead me thru this diseased land
I have I have I have
I have stole
I have sinned
Oh my soul
Its unclean
Country girl
Gotta keep on keeping on

Country girl
Take my hand
Lead me thru this diseased land
I have I have I have
I have stole
I have sinned
Oh my soul
Its unclean
Country girl
Gotta keep on keeping on

Country girl
Gotta keep on keeping on

If someone told me you'd be here
whispering these familiar things
talking to my little pets
smoking the same old cigarettes
I would have laughed

I saw you last in summertime
You said you hated long goodbyes
You said there's nothing to explain
in every life a little rain
et cetera


And a long-forgotten fairytale
is in your eyes again
and I'm caught inside a dream world
where the colors are too intense
and nothing is making sense

There's a floating town of eiderdown
in a mist of mystery
There's an old enchanted castle
and the princess there is me
decked out like a Christmas tree.


I guess you've had your little joke
but I have lost my sense of humor
My medication's wearing off
or it's just not strong enough
to cover this

and then you kiss me like before
and I find myself wanting more
and you tell that little lie
that kept me hypnotized:
another kiss


And a long-forgotten fairytale
is in your eyes again
and I'm caught inside a dream world
where the colors are too intense
and nothing is making sense

There's a floating town of eiderdown
in a mist of mystery
There's an old enchanted castle
and the princess there is me
decked out like a Christmas tree.


If someone told me I'd succumb,
if someone said I'd be so dumb
after all the sleepless nights
when I turned on all the lights
I would have hit them

but I have turned the other cheek
My voice trembles, my knees are weak
and you beat me once again
and I know what happens then:
you raise the ante


And a long-forgotten fairytale
is in your eyes again
and I'm caught inside a dream world
where the colors are too intense
and nothing is making sense

Outkast: Take off Your Cool"

Baby, take off your cool
I wanna see you, I wanna see you
Baby, don't be so cool
I wanna see you, I wanna see you


Baby, take off your cool
I want to get to know you
(Take off your cool)

You might have seen me ‘neath the pool hall lights.
Well baby i go back each night. if you got a throat i got a knife.
Steady rollin’ i keep goin’.
I don’t mind how quick the seasons change. you know to me they’s every one the same.
I seen the sunshine drip the drain.
Death’s comin’. i’m still runnin’. my lovin’ lady she’s a ball-and-chain.
I still can travel but my speed has changed.
I bring the money.
I take the blame.
Steady rollin’ i keep goin’.
But i shot my wife today, dropped her body in the frisco bay.
I had no choice it was the only way. death’s comin’.
I’m still runnin’.
Out waltzing with the holy ghost, from the bowery to the barbary coast.
The place i’m from you know i love the most.
Steady rollin’ i keep goin’.
And everyday is just another town. the more i search you know the less i’ve found.
Me, i’m a sucker just a slave to sound.
Death’s comin’.
I’m still runnin’.
Well i come from the old time baby, too late for you to save me.
If i remain then i’m to blame.
But if you should ever leave me, i’ll go where ‘er you lead me.
Its all the same, the same old game.

"Biggest Part Of Me"

If you've ever had a broken heart,
You promise yourself to never let it happen again.
Don't wanna think about it.
Don't wanna dream about it,
But it finds its way back into your head.
The "I love you's, I need you's"
Are only words that people say,
They're just words, when they're hand in hand,
With the games that people play, but,

If I ever see the top of the mountain,
If never step my foot in the sea.
I promise you I love you forever,
You'll always be the biggest part of me.
Where ever you are, whatever you do I will follow,
You've changed the way that I used to think.
I promise you I'll love you forever,
You'll always be the biggest part of me.

Take a look at me, I let you have my heart.
I swore I'd never let it happen again.
I'm not mad about it, I'm kinda glad about it,
Cause I know that with you girl, I can depend.
I love you, I need you,
Are only words that people say.
They're just words, when they're hand in hand,
With the games that people play, but,

If I ever see the top of the mountain,
If never step my foot in the sea.
I promise you I love you forever,
You'll always be the biggest part of me.
Where ever you are, whatever you do I will follow,
You've changed the way that I used to think.
I promise you I'll love you forever,
You'll always be the biggest part of me.

I believe, yes I believe,
I believe in love again,
And I swear, I'll always be there.
Isn't this the way that it should be, and,

If I ever see the top of the mountain,
If never step my foot in the sea.
I promise you I love you forever,
You'll always be the biggest part of me.
Where ever you are, whatever you do I will follow,
You've changed the way that I used to think.
I promise you I'll love you forever,
You'll always be the biggest part of me.

The Zookeeper's Boy
by Mew

Am I the ONLY person who LOVES this song?????

Are you my lady, are you?
Are you my lady, are you?

If I don't make it back from the city,
then it is only because I am drawn away.
For you see, evidently there's a dark storm coming,
and the chain on my swing is squeaking like a mouse.

So are you my lady, are you?
Are you my lady, are you? (The rain is falling down, the cars remain.)

You're tall just like a giraffe,
you have to climb to find its head.
But if there's a glitch, you're an ostrich,
you've got your head in the sand.

In a submersible I can hardly breathe,
as it takes me inside, so the light sings.
Answer me truthfully, do the clouds kiss you?
With meringue-coloured hair, I know they cannot.

So are you my lady, are you? (The rain is falling down, the cars remain.)
Are you my lady, are you? (The rain is falling down, the cars remain.)

Santa Ana winds bring seasickness
Zookeeper hear me out:
How dare you go? (Cold in the rain.)

Tall just like a giraffe,
you have to climb to find its head.
But if there's a glitch, you're an ostrich,
you've got your head in the sand.

Are you my lady, are you?
Are you my lady, are you? (The rain is falling down, the cars remain.)
Are you my lady, are you? (I could not be seen with you, working half the time and looking fine in cars re-made.)

I knew all along
That I was right at the start
‘bout the seeds of the weeds
That grew in your heart
Self satisfaction for the factions
Who formed to tear us apart
Well I gave you the Midas touch
Oh you turned round and scratched out my heart

Oh what did you expect?
Oh tell me what did you expect?
To lay it on my head
So is it all upon my head?

Bang bang you’re dead
Oh I’m so easily lead
Bang bang you’re dead
Put all the rumours to bed
Bang bang you’re dead

I knew all along
But I was loathe to believe
There was nothing but spite
Fury and lies
Of the words that you weave
An illusion to a conclusion
And oh its oh so tawdry
When you put it to bed
Kick it in the head
Oh won’t they just let it be

Bang bang you’re dead
Always so easily lead
Bang bang you’re dead
Put all the rumours to bed
Bang bang you’re dead

Oh what did you expect?
Oh tell me what did you expect?
To lay it on my head
So is it all upon my head?

Bang bang you’re dead
Always so easily lead
Bang bang you’re dead
Put all the rumours to bed
Bang bang you’re dead
Bang bang bang bang you’re dead

Go Get 'Em Tiger
by Gisli

imagine 2 black hobos in white suits and bow ties
sitting on the pavement outside a starbucks
sippin on double decafe lattés with low fat milk
and shooting up on heroin
yo pull out your teeth, have a hamburger,
go down, slow down
put on your night gown
booze is no good on the funky side of this town
so you're back on crack, steroids and smack
should i beat you up or cut you some slack?
do you sleep in the streets or easy and cheap?
shallow not deep? 3 feet tall and pretty weak?
i slip into my suit and my cowboy hat and boots
play hard core heavy metal and think about you

i had a horrible date with gareth gates
who was wearing tank top and shades
running around in roller blades
lasted for days we had nothing to say until
suddenly he looks at me and says 'im gay!'
i was like, 'what the fuck? what d'you want me to say,
hooray? you want a fucking parade?
no fucking way man

some think you are (go get em tiger!)
some think you are (go get em tiger!)
some think you are, but i know you're so much more.
(go get em tiger!)

i met the girl of my dreams
and it suddenly seems as if my jeans are too tight to be seen,
on tv atleast, cos family shows are not allowed to go down
and show growth at all the wrong... uh... you know!?
she stared at me and smiled sweet and said,
'i've seen you on tv' and i said 'are you sure? my place or yours?
bed or the floor? hardcore? with or without the lights?
take of your tights' and after a long hard night i said,
'that was incredible!', she said, 'ah, it was alright,
i've had better'

some think you are (go get em tiger!)
some think you are (go get em tiger!)
some think you are, but i know you're so much more.
(go get em tiger!)
some think you are (go get em tiger!)
some think you are (go get em tiger!)
some think you are, but i know you're so much more.
(go get em tiger!)

go get em tiger! (x3)

you're just a bunch of old teeth you corporate pants, you (x4)

some think you are (go get em tiger!)
some think you are (go get em tiger!)
some think you are, but i know you're so much more
(go get em tiger!)
some think you are (go get em tiger)
some think you are (go get em tiger)
some think you are, but i know you're so much more.
(go get em tiger!)
