It's been awhile... Song Lyrics That Make You Feel Good

We May Be The Ones
Paul Westerberg

I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know

Was the garage your playground full of holes
Did you piss in the alley and get your toes caught in the spokes of a bike with a bananna seat
Did you carry a knife that was rusted shut tight
You got drunk after church at 13

We may well be the ones to set this world on it's ear
We may well be the ones, if not then why are we here

I wanna know, I wanna know
The sweet smell of candles burnt low by young women alone on their own for the very first time
under posters of rock stars that ya vaguly resemble
in front of academy of resounding perhaps means that you'll be the next one in line

We may well be the ones to set this world on it's ear
we may well get it done if not then why are we here
why the hell then are we here

I wanna know, I wanna know
You may well be the next one
someone sell me a hand gun
goodbye ma, I'm done for
It's the law, tell me what for

I wanna know, I wanna know
Smoke cigarette butts from your brothers green helmet that he wore in that war once where everyone lost and they taught him to pour coffee and napalm traded his storm for an intense calm that just won't let him be

We may well be the ones to set this world on it's ear
We may well get it done, if not why are we here
Why the hell else are we here
If not then why are we here
If not then why are we here
We may well be the ones

MrBliss

suck my kiss

red hot chili peppers



Should of been, could of been
Would of been dead
If I didn't get the message
Goin' to my head
I am what I am
Most motherfuckers
Don't give a damn
Aw baby think you can
Be my girl, I'll be your man

Come-on full of fun
Do me 'till I'm well done
Little Bo peep
Cumin' from my stan gun
Beware... take care
Most motherfuckers
Have a cold ass stare
Aw baby please be there
Suck my kiss cut me my share

Hit me you can't hurt me
Suck my kiss
Kiss me please pervert me
Stick with this
Is she talking dirty
Give to me sweet sacred bliss
Your mouth was made to suck my kiss

Look at me can't you see
All I really want to be
Is free from a world
That hurts me
I need relief
Do you want me girl
To be your thief
Aw baby just for you
I'd steal anything that you want me to

K - I - S - S - I - N - G
Chicka chicka dee
Do me like a banshee
Low brow is how
Swimming in the sound
Of bow wow wow
Aw baby do me now
Do me here I do allow

Hit me you can't hurt me
Suck my kiss
Kiss me please pervert me
Stick with this
Is she talking dirty
Give to me sweet sacred bliss
Your mouth was made to...

Should of been, could of been
Would of been dead
If I didn't get the message
Goin' to my head
I am what I am
Most motherfuckers
Don't give a damn
Aw baby think you can
Be my girl, I'll be your man

Come-on full of fun
Do me 'till I'm well done
Little Bo peep
Cumin' from my stan gun
Beware... take care
Most motherfuckers
Have a cold ass stare
Aw baby please be there
Suck my kiss cut me my share

Hit me you can't hurt me
Suck my kiss
Kiss me please pervert me
Stick with this
Is she talking dirty
Give to me sweet sacred bliss
Your mouth was made to suck my kiss

Particle Man-They Might Be Giants

Particle man, particle man
Doing the things a particle can
What's he like? It's not important
Particle man

Is he a dot, or is he a speck?
When he's underwater does he get wet?
Or does the water get him instead?
Nobody knows, Particle man

Triangle man, Triangle man
Triangle man hates particle man
They have a fight, Triangle wins
Triangle man

Universe man, Universe man
Size of the entire universe man
Usually kind to smaller man
Universe man

He's got a watch with a minute hand,
Millenium hand and an eon hand
When they meet it's a happy land
Powerful man, universe man

Person man, person man
Hit on the head with a frying pan
Lives his life in a garbage can
Person man

Is he depressed or is he a mess?
Does he feel totally worthless?
Who came up with person man?
Degraded man, person man

Triangle man, triangle man
Triangle man hates person man
They have a fight, triangle wins
Triangle man

Kid Charlemagne - Steely Dan

While the music played you worked by candlelight
Those San Francisco nights,
You were the best in town
Just by chance you crossed the diamond with the pearl
You turned it on the world
That's when you turned the world around
(Did you feel like Jesus ?)
Did you realize
That you were Italian in their eyes ?

On the hill their stuff was laced with kerosene
But yours was kitchen clean
Everyone stopped to stare at your technicolor motorhome
Every airframe had your number on the wall
You musta had it all
You go to L.A. on a dare and you go it alone
(Could you live forever)
Could you see the day
Could you feel your whole world fall apart and fade away

Get along
Get along Kid Charlemagne
Get along Kid Charlemagne

Now your patrons have all left you in the red
Your low rent friends are dead
This life can be very strange
All those day-glo freaks who used to paint their face
They've joined the human race, some things will never change
(Son you were mistaken)
You are obsolete
Look at all the white men on the street

Get along
Get along Kid Charlemagne
Get along Kid Charlemagne

Clean this mess up else we'll all end up in jail
Those test tubes and the scale
Just get it all out of here
Is there gas in the car ?
Yes there's gas in the car!
I think the people down the hall know who you are
(Careful what you carry)
Cause the man is wise
You are still an outlaw in their eyes

Get along (Get along)
Get along Kid Charlemagne (Get along)
Get along Kid Charlemagne

Jimmy Buffett Doesn't Live In Key West Anymore
David Allan Coe

(I just listened to this and typed it out... there are a couple of places that I don't know what it's saying).

This song is for all the people thats been reviewing our records, in different magazines and things, and mentioning the fact that we sound a lot like Jimmy Buffett, because we live in Key West and we use congo drums in our songs. And, to all those people that are under the misconception that Mr. Buffett lives in Key West, we'd like to say that there is a lot of things in Key West. As a matter of fact:

There's sailboats and conch shells, and palm trees galore
But, Jimmy Buffett doesn't live in Key West anymore.
Sister Spare Change has a bumper sticker on the door, it says "Jimmy Buffett doesn't live in Key West anymore."

Hey smugglers hate those Buffett songs, snitching on the sly, bringing heat, where its already too damn hot to die.
Son-of-a-son-of-a-son-of-a-bitch, what's all that bullshit for?
Jimmy Buffett he don't live in Key West anymore.

Sailing to the Carribean, Jimmy might well be.
Pictures up in Rolling Stone, for all the world to see.
The rich keep getting richer, the poor they just stay poor.
But Jimmy Buffett doesn't live in Key West anymore.

Now Jimmy's moved to Malibu, with all those other stars.
He's not down on (Duval?) Street, hanging out in bars.
All them goddamned tourists, got to be a bore.
But, Jimmy Buffett doesn't live in Key West anymore.

So don't tell me I sound like Jimmy Buffett, just because I've got that island beat.
Jimmy might have grown up on the ocean, me I kind of grown up on the streets.
Music's just a way of life, to me I'm living free.
So don't play all that Key West Jimmy Buffett shit on me.

Now divers do it deeper, must of really made them mad.
Some of them reviewers said, it really sounded bad.
Well, they liked Margaritaville; me, I liked it too.
Someday, Jimmy, why dont we just both get drunk and screw?

Them creepy motherfuckers, that think music is a whore,
tell 'em that you just don't live in Key West anymore.

There's sailboats, and conch shells, and palm trees galore.
But, Jimmy Buffett, he don't live in Key West anymore.
Sister Spare Change has a bumper sticker on the door, Jimmy Buffett, he don't live in Key West anymore.

Alright boys, sound like Jimmy Buffett now!

JANIE RUNAWAY


It must have been my lucky Thursday
Your dad went on that spree
Before the crew could put out the fires
You hopped a bus for NYC
Down in Tampa the future looked desperate and dark
Now you're the wonderwaif of Gramercy Park

Who makes the morning fabulous
Who says today's a fun day
Why do I feel like sailing again
Honey it's you - Janie Runaway

Let's grab some takeout from Dean and Deluca
A hearty gulping wine
You be the showgirl and I'll be Sinatra
Way back in '59
Sweetness in heels - look at you - in long black gloves
Come to old blue eyes tell me - who do you love

Who makes the traffic interesting
Rescues a dreary Sunday
Who makes me feel like painting again
Honey it's you - Janie Runaway

Let's plan a weekend alone together
Drive out to Binky's place
The sugar shack in Pennsylvania
Or would that be a federal case?
We'll take the Big Red - the Blazer - it's nice inside
And guess who's coming along for the ride

Who has a friend named Melanie
Who's not afraid to try new things
Who gets to spend her birthday in Spain
Possibly you - Janie Runaway

Who makes the morning fabulous
Rescues a dreary Sunday
Who gets to spend her birthday in Spain
Possibly you - Janie Runaway
I'll see you tonight..
in ALL MY DREAMS..

Cheap Thrills
David Allan Coe

(My dad used to say this song reminded him of me). redface


They judge a boy by his friends
And, all of mine are trash.
They say you find your own level... well, I'm a snake in the grass.
But, I can't help the things I do... I've always been attracted to...

Cheap thrills
Don't you know I like...
Cheap thrills
Night after night...
Cheap thrills
Well, if you ain't supposed to do it, I will

I got a low reputation, and a bad attitude...
'Cause all I want to do is something
That I ain't supposed to do
Well, I can't change the things I love
I guess I'm just a victim of...

Cheap thrills
Don't you know I like...
Cheap thrills
Night after night
Cheap thrills...
Well, if you ain't supposed to do it, I will...

When I'm Dead and Gone

McGuiness Flint

Oh, I love you baby, I love you night and day
When I leave you baby don’t cry the night away
When I die don’t you write no words upon my tomb
And don’t believe, I want to leave no epitaph of doom

Oh oh oh oh
When I’m dead and gone
I want to leave some happy woman living on
Oh oh oh oh
When I’m dead and gone
Don’t want nobody to mourn beside my grave

Old Mama Linda, she’s out to get my hide
She’s got a shotgun and her daughter by her side
Hey there Ladies, John son’s free
Who’s got the love, who’s got enough
To keep a man like me?

Oh oh oh oh
When I’m dead and gone
I want to leave some happy woman living on
Oh oh oh oh
When I’m dead and gone
Don’t want nobody to mourn beside my grave

Oh oh oh oh
When I’m dead and gone
Don’t want nobody to mourn beside my grave
Oh oh oh oh
When I’m dead and gone - when I’m dead and gone
Don’t want nobody to mourn beside my grave - I don’t want nobody to mourn

Oh oh oh ooh la-le-lei, oh oh ooh la-le-lei ...
I mean, like, where is the sun?

Stay this Way-Brand New Heavies


Living with you in my life
Is like feeling the whole world’s on my side
Putting a smile in the place
Where a tear used to run down my face
Feeling the sun on my head
Where a cloud used to follow instead
Singing a song in my heart
In a place where all my troubles depart

(chorus)
If our dreams are falling down to the ground
Let them fly
Let the rain keep falling down
Cause baby I’m high
Now it will fly now that we’re together oh ho
Love is so high stay this way forever

Living with you in my life
Is like feeling the whole world’s on my side
Putting a smile in the place
Where a tear used to run down my face

(chorus)

Our love…yeah!

Love will be here forever
I know that we’ll stay together
Our love will be here forever
I hope that we’ll stay together

Much love yes Pochacco

I still love the lyrics to Stairway to Heaven...those lyrics make me think of Spring for some reason and also the Lord of the Rings. I am not printing them here...I'm still at work but everyone should know those by heart anyway.

Also think the lyrics in Something by George Harrison are simply beautiful.

Okay if knowledge is the key then just show me the lock,
got the scrawny legs but I move just like Lou Brock,
with speed,
I'm agile,
plus I'm worth your while,
100 percent intelligent black child,

My optic presentation sizzles the retina,
how far must you go to gain respect?
ummm
well it's kind of sad to remain your own,
you'll be crazy sad and alone,
Industry rule number 4080,
record company people are shaaady,
so kids watch your back,
cuz I think they smoke crack,
I don't doubt it,
look at how they act.

We're off with better things like a hip hop forum,
pass me the mic,
and I'll floor em,
with decorum,
(forgot the next part sorry confuse)
and proper,
whatcha say Hammer?
"Proper"
Rap is not Pop,
if you call it that then stop,

Check the Rhyme ya'll...

ahhh Tribe...touched

ON A SLOW BOAT TO CHINA

I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All to myself alone
Get you and keep you
In my arms ever more
Leave all your lovers
Weepin' on a far away shore

Out on the briny
With the moon big and shiny
Melting your heart of stone
Homey I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All by myself alone

I'd love to get ya
On a slow boat to China
All to myself alone
A twist in the rudder
And a rip in the sails
Drifting and dreamin'
Honey throw the compass over the rail

Out on the ocean
Far from all the commotion
Melting your heart of stone
Honey I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All to myself alone.

TIN CUP CHALICE Jimmy Buffett

I want to go back to the island,
Where the shrimp boats tie up to the pilin'.
Give me oysters and beer for dinner ev'ry day of the year,
And I'll feel fine, I'll feel fine.

'Cause I want to be there,
I want to go back down and lie beside the sea there.
With a tin cup for a chalice
Fill it up with good red wine,
And I'm be chewin' on a honeysuckle vine.

Yeah, now the sun goes slidin' 'cross the water;
Sailboats, they go searchin' for the breeze.
Salt air it ain't thin,
It can stick right to your skin,
And make you feel fine.
It makes you feel fine.

'Cause I want to be there,
I want to go back down and lie beside the sea there.
With a tin cup for a chalice
Fill it up with good red wine,
And I'm be chewin' on a honeysuckle vine.

Yes, and now you heard my strange proposal;
Get that pack gear on and let's move.
I want to be there before the day
Tries to steal away and leave us behind;
I've made up my mind;

'Cause I want to be there,
I want to go back down and die beside the sea there.
With a tin cup for a chalice
Fill it up with good red wine,
And I'm be chewin' on a honeysuckle vine.

doesn't really make me feel good, necessarily... it's kinda
depressing really... but i'm posting this for a friend... biggrin

this song was written by kris kristofferson, but was most masterfully done by al green...

"For the Good Times"


Don't look so sad, I know it's over,
But life goes on and this old world will keep on turning.
Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together,
There's no need to watch the bridges that we're burning.

Lay your head upon my pillow,
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine,
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft across the window,
And make believe you love me one more time,
For the good times . . .

I'll get along, you'll find another,
And I'll be here if you should find you ever need me,
Don't say a word about tomorrow, or forever,
There'll be time enough for sadness when you leave me . . .

Lay your head upon my pillow,
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine,
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft across the window,
And make believe you love me one more time,
For the good times . . .

For the good times . . .

"barefoot chilren" by Jimmy Buffett

Scratch my back with a lightning bolt
Thunder rolls like a bass drum note
The sound of the weather is heaven's rag time band

We all fell down from the milky way
Hanging round here 'till judgment day
Heaven only knows who's in command

Barefoot children in the rain
Got no need to explain
We'd be swinging on a ball and chain
It's always understood by those who play the game
Barefoot children in the rain

Show me yours and I'll show you mine
Take me back to days full with monkey shine's
Bouncing on a bubble full of trouble in the summer sun

Keep your raft from the riverboat
Fiction over fact always has my vote
And wrinkles only go where the smiles have been

Barefoot children in the rain
Got no need to explain
We'd be swinging on a ball and chain
It's always understood by those who play the game
Barefoot children in the rain
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Barefoot children in the rain

Scratch my back with a lightning bolt
Thunder rolls like a bass drum note
The sound of the weather is heaven's rag time band

The sky turns blue and the sun appears
But the question's still "what are we doing here?"
I don't think the answer's close at hand

Barefoot children in the rain
Got no need to explain
We'd be swinging on a ball and chain
It's always understood by those who play the game
Barefoot children in the rain
in the rain
in the rain

I'm flubbing the lyrics I know but "Cupid" by Sam Cooke can make me go to bed with a smile on my face no matter how bad the day's been:

Cupid draw back your bow
and let
your arrow go
straight to
my lover's heart
for me

Cupid please hear my cry
and let
your arrow fly
straight to
my lover's heart
for me
for me

Come to think of it anything by Sam Cooke does it for me. It's his singing that gets me. Few come close with the exception of Marvin Gaye. worship worship

HAVANA DAYDREAMIN' Jimmy Buffett

Stashed his trash in Ecuador, bought a good suit of clothes.
Flew on up to Mexico, standin' by the shore.
Waiting for some mystery man, to pay him for his time.
Thinkin' about all the money he made,
couldn't help to ease his mind
Havana daydreamin' oh he's just dreamin' his life away.

Daddy shucked that sugar cane,
One day he fell dead.
Jesus had a wanderin' feelin'
Swimmin around in his head.
Sailin' on a midnight boat,
There were no questions asked,
Water's so green and the air was so clean
That he stuck right to his task, Havana daydreamin',
Oh he's just schemin', his life away.

Ceilin' fan stirs the air
Cigar smoke did swirl,
A fragrance on the pillow case
And he thinks about the girl.
Spillin' wine wine and sharin' good times
She sure could make him smile.
He pays her well but what the hell
He'll be movin' in a little while, Havana daydreamin',
Havana daydreamin'
Oh he'll be dreamin' his life away.

Death of an Unpopular Poet
Jimmy Buffett


I once knew a poet
Who lived before his time
He and his dog Spooner
Would listen while he'd rhyme
Words to make ya happy
Words to make you cry
Then one day the poet suddenly did die

But he left behind a closet
Filled with verse and rhyme
And through some strange transaction
One was printed in the Times
And everybody's searchin'
For the king of undergound
Well they found him down in Florida
With a tombstone for a crown

Everybody knows a line
From his book that cost four ninety-nine
I wonder if he knows he's doin'
Quite this fine

'Cause his books are all best sellers
And his poems were turned to song
Had his brother on a talk show
Though they never got along
And now he's called immortal
Yes he's even taught in school
They say he used his talents
A most proficient tool

But he left all of his royalties
To Spooner his ol' hound
Growin' old on steak and bacon
In a doghouse ten feet 'round
And everybody wonders
Did he really lose his mind
No he was just a poet who lived before his time
He was just a poet who lived before his time

Well, how about this one then?

I really do appriciate the fact you're sitting here
Your voice sounds so wonderful, but your face don't look too clear

So barmaid bring a pitcher; another round of brew
Honey why don't we get drunk and screw

Why don't we get drunk and screw
I just bought a waterbed it's filled up for me and you

They said are a snub queen, honey I don't think that's true
So why don't we get drunk and screw

Pick it Coral Reefer's, here we go

(Solo music break)

Why don't we get drunk and screw
I just bought a waterbed it's filled up for me and you

They said are a snub queen, honey I don't think that's true
So why don't we get drunk and screw

Yah now baby

Why dont we get drunk and screw

FLORIDAYS Jimmy Buffett


I come from where the rivers meet the sea
That's part of why I'm so wild and fancy free
I was early into crazy ways
My folks said, "It's just a phase"
They were hoping for better days

Now in my line of work I seem to see a lot more than most
Write 'em down, pas 'em around
It's the gospel from the coast
Reflections, not just replays
Takin' time to escape the maze
Lookin' for better days

I spent a year of my life one night
On the beaches in old Beirut
Seems that all they're aimin' for there
Is to hang around and shoot
Each others' lives away
Bloody winds on a distant bay
they're lookin' for better days

Looking to the left, looking to the right
Looking to the stars to shed some light
Hoping for a breath, hoping for break
Hopin' for the give without the take

The dreamers line the state road
Just to watch the runway show
Slouched behind their steering wheels
They just watch the big jets go
Streakin' through the morning haze
Focal point of a distant gaze
Lookin' for better days

Pale invaders and tanned crusaders
Are worshipping the sun
On the corner of "walk" and "don't walk"
Somewhere on US 1

I'm back to livin' Floridays
Blue skies and ultra-violet rays
Lookin' for better days

I'm back to livin' Floridays
Blue skies and ultra-violet rays
Lookin' for better days, lookin' for better days
Lookin' for Floridays

Better days, better days
Everybody's lookin' for better days
Somewhere beneath the shining star
Better days, mon't you take me to better days
Better days, I sure could use a few better days
Floridays
