    Looking for a simple love song, I came upon this old one-->

    You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs
    But I look around me and I see it isnt so
    Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs
    And whats wrong with that?
    Id like to know, cause here I go again
    I love you, I love you,
    I love you, I love you,
    I cant explain the feelings plain to me, say cant you see?
    Ah, she gave me more, she gave it all to me
    Now can't you see,
    Whats wrong with that
    I need to know, cause here I go again
    I love you, I love you

    Love doesnt come in a minute,
    Sometimes it doesn't come at all
    I only know that when I'm in it
    It isn't silly, no, it isnt silly, love isn't silly at all

    How can I tell you about my loved one?
    How can I tell you about my loved one?

    How can I tell you about my loved one?
    (I love you)
    How can I tell you about my loved one?
    (I love you)

    Waiting for the time when I can finally say
    That this has all been wonderful but now I'm on my way
    But when I think it's time to leave it all behind
    I try to find a way but there's nothing I can say to make it stop

    'This is no way to live
    And this is no way to die
    Who in the hell's life is this I'm livin anyway....
    Love is a lonely room'

    i'm so glad that my memories remote
    'cos i'm doing just fine hour to hour, note to note
    here it is the revenge to the tune
    "you're no good,
    you're no good you're no good you're no good"
    can't you tell that it's well understood

    Michael Franti - Bomb The World

    Please tell me the reason
    Behind the colors that you fly
    Love just one nation
    And the whole world we divide
    You say you're "sorry"
    Say, "there is no other choice"
    But god bless the people them
    Who cannot raise their voice

    (chorus)

    We can chase down all our enemies
    Bring them to their knees
    We can bomb the world to pieces
    But we can't bomb it into peace
    Whoa we may even find a solution
    To hunger and disease
    We can bomb the world to pieces
    But we can't bomb it into peace



    Violence brings one thing
    More more of the same
    Military madness
    The smell of flesh and burning pain
    So i sing out to the masses
    Stand up if you're still sane!
    To all of us gone crazy
    I sing this one refrain

    (chorus)

    And i sing power to the peaceful
    Love to the people y'all
    Power to the peaceful
    Love to the people y'all

    Bomb the world (armageddon version)

    I don't understand the whole reason why
    You tellin' us all that we need to unify
    Rally round the flag
    And beat the drums of war
    Sing the same old songs
    Ya know we heard 'em all before
    You tellin' me it's unpatriotic
    But i call it what i see it
    When i see it's idiotic
    The tears of one mother
    Are the same as any other
    Drop food on the kids
    While you're murderin' their fathers
    But don't bother to show it on cnn
    Brothers and sisters don't believe them
    It's not a war against evil
    It's really just revenge
    Engaged on the poorest by the same rich men
    Fight terrorists wherever they be found
    But why you not bombing tim mcveigh's hometown
    You can say what you want propaganda television
    But all bombing is terrorism

    (chorus)

    We can chase down all our enemies
    Bring them to their knees
    We can bomb the world to pieces
    But we can't bomb it into peace
    Whoa we may even find a solution
    To hunger and disease
    We can bomb the world to pieces
    But we can't bomb it into peace

    911
    Fire in the skies
    Many people died
    And no one even really knows why
    They tellin' lies of division and fear
    We yelled and cried
    No one listened for years
    But like, "who put us here?"
    And who's responsible?
    Well, there's no debatin'
    Cause if they ask me i say
    It's big corporations
    World trade organization
    Tri-lateral action
    International sanctions, satan
    Seems like it'll be an endless price tag
    Of wars tremendous
    And most disturbingly
    The death toll is so horrendous
    So i send this to those
    Who say they defend us
    Send us into harm's way
    We should all make a rememberence that
    This is bigger than terrorism
    Blood is blood is blood and um
    Love is true vision
    Who will listen?
    How many songs it takes for you to see
    You can bomb the world to pieces
    You can't bomb it into peace


    (chorus)
    Power to the peaceful
    And i say, love to the people y'all
    Power to the peaceful
    And i say, love to the people y'all

    (chorus)


    Peace
    *We CAN bomb the World to pieces, but we CAN'T bomb it into PEACE*...Michael Franti

    *MUSIC IS the expression of EMOTION.....and that POLITICS IS merely the DECOY of PERCEPTION*
    .....song_Music & Politics....Michael Franti

    *The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite INSANE*....Nikola Tesla(a man who shaped our world of electricity with his futuristic inventions)

    When all 'the poetry of the earth'
    Might be all there is
    It might still have some worth
    Yeah, but I can't dance to it



    that one chorus sums up music/art/poetry for me. OMG

    don't know why i can't stop singing it since it doesn't apply but it's been stuck in my head for days

    i figured it out, what you said
    but now that you've gone away
    and everything's turned out wrong
    i opened my eyes and you were gone, girl
    and to my surprise i could not be
    the one that you loved
    you ran away and over me
    and if i knew that you would run
    to far beyond my reach
    i would've wish that you was free
    apply to what, might I ask?

    what we are is the sum of a thousand lives
    what we know is almost nothing at all
    well we are what we are
    till the day we die
    or till we don't have the strength to go on...

    I Gotta get out from inside my head
    I Gotta get out from inside my head

    It's me and you aginst the world
    You double the dose and I ran outta rope
    it's me and you against the world'
