Post Lyrics from Your Favorite Songs

Artist: Hector Lavoe, Hector Juan Perez Martinez.

Album: Comedia. Released 1978.

Song: El Cantante.

" I am the singer, that you've come to listen to

today and I'm going to present to you the best of my repertoire.

They always stop me in the street, a lot of people comment hey

Hector oh, you've made it! always with women and in parties.

And nobody asks me if I suffer, if I cry, if I have a sorrow, that

hurts me deep inside.

I am the singer, because my thing is to sing and the public pays

to listen to me.

I am the singer, very popular everywhere, but once the show is over,

I'm like any other human being"

He was a Libra.

My back to the wall

A victim of laughing chance

This is for me
The essence of true romance

"Deacon Blues," Steely Dan (1977)

Catch up baby
Catch up with my dreams

Maybe then I will see you all the time

"Tuesday Heartbreak," Stevie Wonder (1972)



You owe nothing to the past but wasted time

To serve a sentence that was only in your mind

"End of the Day," Beck (2002)


My only weapon is my pen

And the frame of mind I'm in

"Poet," Sly and the Family Stone (1971)

So take the photographs, and still-frames in your mind
Hang them on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoo's of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

Then you came back to me
And I went down on one knee
With a glint in my eyes
And a rose between my teeth
And I pushed out my tongue
For you to see
That I'd been dying of a thirst
For your company
And then you quenched my loneliness
With your tears
And our clothes fell away
As we rolled back the years
But we couldn't deny it
Because we could not admit it
If our love was too strong to die
Or we were just too weak to kill it
Was our love too strong to die?
Or were we just to weak to kill it?

Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
If we get the van out of the ditch before morning ain't nobody got to know what I done
And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.

And I don't need to be forgiven by them people in the neighborhood
When we first hooked up, you looked me in the eye
And said Paw, we just ain't no good.
We were heathens in their eyes at the time, I guess I am just a Heathen still
And I never have repented from the wrongs that they say I have done
I done what I feel.

It was a difficult delivery, now it's growing up mean and strong
When you tell me that it's getting just a little bit tight, ain't the first time I been outgrown
And I'm gonna push a little harder
She ain't revved till the rods are thrown
I'll walk away

And I don't need to be forsaken by you or anybody else
And I never had a shortage of people trying to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.
Heathens.

These times can take their toll sometimes and I know you feel the same way too
It gets so hard to keep between the ditches
When the roads wind the way they do.

Anger, can make you old, yes it can
I said anger, can make you sick, children... oh Jesus
Anger destroys your soul
Rage, there's no room for rage in there
There's no room for rage in here
line up some place to go to be mad
It's a sin to treat your body bad...

Great choice.


don't go and talk about my father
God is my friend
Jesus is my friend
He made this world for us to live in, and gave us everything
And all he asks of us is we give each other love

Marvin Gaye, "God Is Love" (1971)
