  • The clothesline of cold eyes
    is washing away the face before
    Now tell me what's wrong you see everyone's gone
    You gotta do your best to decorate this dying' day
    This dying' day
    All over a bowl of bitter beans
    All over a bowl of bitter beans

    And outside way, way up high I got a quarter moon mist
    hanging' over me
    And now, I want that rocking chair outta there
    Cause he's no longer living here
    It's no longer needed here

    All over a bowl of bitter beans
    All over a bowl of bitter beans

    And I got a corner store and that's all the more
    For me to praise upon the holidays
    And now I'll close my eyes really, really tight
    and make you all go away,
    I'll make you all go all go away

    And I'll pull the trigger and make it all go away
    And I'll make it all go away, I'll make it all go away

    Blind Melon ~ soup

  • When trouble fills my world you bring me peace
    you calm me down, you're my relief
    when walls come crashing down around my feet
    you light my way you're my release

    so say you'll watch over me when im in too deep
    tell me you'll always be there to pull me free

    when the sun is beating down upon my brow
    you are my shade you cool me down
    and every time i tried to turn away
    you brought me around in your humble way

    so say you'll watch over me when im in too deep
    tell me you'll always be there to pull me free
    there to rescue me

    for everytime you sheltered me from harm
    you showed me truth you kept me warm
    and every time you left me on the street
    i found my way i found my feet

    Watch over me ~ Bernard Fanning

    It doesn’t matter what I say
    So long as I sing with inflection
    That makes you feel that I’ll convey
    Some inner truth of vast reflection
    But I’ve said nothing so far
    And I can keep it up for as long as it takes
    And it don’t matter who you are
    If I’m doing my job then it’s your resolve that breaks

    Because the hook brings you back
    I ain’t tellin’ you no lie
    The hook brings you back
    On that you can rely

    There is something amiss
    I am being insincere
    In fact I don’t mean any of this
    Still my confession draws you near
    To confuse the issue I refer
    To familiar heroes from long ago
    No matter how much peter loved her
    What made the pan refuse to grow

    Was that the hook brings you back
    I ain’t tellin’ you no lie
    The hook brings you back
    On that you can rely

    Suck it in suck it in suck it in
    If you’re rin tin tin or anne boleyn
    Make a desperate move or else you’ll win
    And then begin
    To see
    What you’re doing to me this mtv is not for free
    It’s so pc it’s killing me
    So desperately I sing to thee
    Of love
    Sure but also rage and hate and pain and fear of self
    And I can’t keep these feelings on the shelf
    I’ve tried well no in fact I lied
    Could be financial suicide but I’ve got too much pride inside
    To hide or slide
    I’ll do as I’ll decide and let it ride until I’ve died
    And only then shall I abide this tide
    Of catchy little tunes
    Of hip three minute ditties
    I wanna bust all your balloons
    I wanna burn all of your cities
    To the ground I’ve found
    I will not mess around
    Unless I play then hey
    I will go on all day hear what I say
    I have a prayer to pray
    That’s really all this was
    And when I’m feeling stuck and need a buck
    I don’t rely on luck because...

    The hook brings you back
    I ain’t tellin’ you no lie
    The hook...
    On that you can rely
    sometimes you're the boxer...sometimes you're the bag...
  • i am not a pretty girl
    that is not what i do
    i ain't no damsel in distress
    and i don't need to be rescued
    so put me down punk
    wouldn't you prefer a maiden fair
    isn't there a kitten
    stuck up a tree somewhere

    i am not an angry girl
    but it seems like
    i've got everyone fooled
    every time i say something
    they find hard to hear
    they chalk it up to my anger
    never to their own fear
    imagine you're a girl
    just trying to finally come clean
    knowing full well they'd prefer
    you were dirty
    and smiling
    i'm sorry
    but i am not a maiden fair
    and i am not a kitten
    stuck up a tree somewhere


    generally my generation
    wouldn't be caught dead
    working for the man
    and generally i agree with them
    trouble is you got to have yourself
    an alternate plan
    i have earned my disillusionment
    i have been working all of my life
    i am a patriot
    i have been fighting the good fight
    and what if there are
    no damsels in distress
    what if i knew that
    and i called your bluff
    don't you think every kitten
    figures out how to get down
    whether or not you ever show up


    i am not a pretty girl
    i don't really want to be a pretty girl
    i want to be more than a pretty girl


    ~Ani Difranco
    If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

    Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

    Is it getting better
    Or do you feel the same
    Will it make it easier on you
    Now you got someone to blame

    You say
    One love
    One life
    When it’s one need
    In the night
    It’s one love
    We get to share it
    It leaves you baby
    If you don’t care for it

    Did I disappoint you?
    Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
    You act like you never had love
    And you want me to go without

    Well it’s too late
    Tonight
    To drag the past out
    Into the light
    We’re one
    But we’re not the same
    We get to carry each other
    Carry each other
    One

    Have you come here for forgiveness
    Have you come to raise the dead
    Have you come here to play Jesus
    To the lepers in your head
    Did I ask too much
    More than a lot
    You gave me nothing
    Now it’s all I got
    We’re one
    But we’re not the same
    We hurt each other
    Then we do it again

    You say
    Love is a temple
    Love a higher law
    Love is a temple
    Love the higher law
    You ask me to enter
    But then you make me crawl
    And I can’t be holding on
    To what you got
    When all you got is hurt

    One love
    One blood
    One life
    You got to do what you should

    One life
    With each other
    Sisters
    Brothers

    One life
    But we’re not the same
    We get to carry each other
    Carry each other

    One

    One.

    Forgive, sounds good
    Forget, I’m not sure I could
    They say time heals everything
    But I’m still waiting

    I’m through with doubt
    There’s nothing left for me to figure out
    I’ve paid a price
    And I’ll keep paying

    I’m not ready to make nice
    I’m not ready to back down
    I’m still mad as hell
    And I don’t have time to go round and round and round
    It’s too late to make it right
    I probably wouldn’t if I could
    ‘Cause I’m mad as hell
    Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

    I know you said
    "Can’t you just get over it?"
    It turned my whole world around
    And I kind of like it

    I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
    With no regrets and I don’t mind saying
    It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
    Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
    And how in the world can the words that I said
    Send somebody so over the edge
    That they’d write me a letter
    Saying that I better shut up and sing
    Or my life will be over

    I’m not ready to make nice
    I’m not ready to back down
    I’m still mad as hell
    And I don’t have time to go round and round and round
    It’s too late to make it right
    I probably wouldn’t if I could
    ‘Cause I’m mad as hell
    Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

    I’m not ready to make nice
    I’m not ready to back down
    I’m still mad as hell
    And I don’t have time to go round and round and round
    It’s too late to make it right
    I probably wouldn’t if I could
    ‘Cause I’m mad as hell
    Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

    Forgive, sounds good
    Forget, I’m not sure I could
    They say time heals everything
    But I’m still waiting.
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.
