    Oh, well imagine, as I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor,
    and I can't help but to hear, no I can't help but to hear an exchanging of words:
    "What a beautiful wedding! What a beautiful wedding!" says a bridesmaid to a waiter.
    "And yes, but what a shame, what a shame, the poor groom's bride is a whore."

    I'd chime in with a:
    "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!"
    No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
    With a sense of poise and rationality.
    I'd chime in, "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!"
    No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of...

    Well in fact, well I'll look at it this way
    I mean technically our marriage is saved
    Well this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne
    Oh! Well in fact, well I'll look at it this way
    I mean technically our marriage is saved
    Well this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne, pour the champagne

    When the day is long and the night
    The night is yours alone
    When you're sure you've had enough of this life
    Well hang on
    Don't let yourself go
    'Cause everybody cries
    And everybody hurts
    Sometimes

    Sometimes everything is wrong
    Now it's time to sing along
    When your day is night alone (hold on, hold on)
    If you feel like letting go (hold on)
    If you think you've had too much of this life
    Well hang on

    'Cause everybody hurts
    Take comfort in your friends
    Everybody hurts
    Don't throw your hand
    Oh, no
    Don't throw your hand
    If you feel like you're alone
    No, no, no
    You are not alone

    If you're on your own in this life
    The days and nights are long
    When you think you've had too much of this life
    To hang on

    Well, everybody hurts
    Sometimes
    Everybody cries
    Everybody hurts
    Sometimes
    Everybody hurts
    Sometimes
    So, hold on, hold on
    Hold on, hold on, hold on
    Hold on, hold on, hold on
    Everybody hurts
    You are not alone.
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    she was hungry so hungry
    and she was trying to think clear
    but she kept opening the fridge door
    and looking at the mustard and the beer
    and then finally she went out into the rain
    carrying her bicycle chain
    and her feet worked the pedals
    while her appetite steered
    and after that she just followed her nose
    cuz fate is not just whose cooking smells good
    but which way the wind blows

    she laid down in her party dress and never got up
    needless to say she missed the party
    she just got sad
    then she got stuck
    she was wincing like something brittle
    trying hard to bend
    she was numb with the terror
    of losing her best friend
    but she never sees things changing
    she only sees them ending
    and some vicious whispering voice
    keeps saying you have no choice

    cuz when i look at you i squint
    you are that beautiful
    and my pussy is a tractor
    and this is a tractor pull
    i'm haunted by my illicit, explicit dreams
    and i can't really wake up
    so i just drift in between
    thinking the glass is half empty
    and thinking it's not quite full

    the pouring rain is no place for a bicycle ride
    try to hit the breaks
    and you slide
    and you slide
    and you slide
    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.

    New Horizons
    The Moody Blues

    I've had dreams enough for one
    And I've got love enough for three.
    I have my hopes to comfort me,
    I've got my new horizons out to sea
    But I'm never gonna lose your precious gift,
    It will always be that way,
    And I know I'm gonna find my own peace of mind
    Some day, some way.

    Where is this place that we have found?
    Nobody knows where we are bound.
    I long to hear, I need to see
    'Cos I've shed tears too many for me.

    But I'm never gonna lose your precious gift,
    It will always be that way,
    And I know I'm gonna find my own peace of mind
    Some day, some way.

    On the wind, soaring free,
    Spread your wings, I'm beginning to see.
    Out of mind, far from view,
    Beyond the reach of the nightmare come true.

    I've had dreams enough for one
    And I've got love enough for three.
    I have my hopes to comfort me,
    I've got my new horizons out to sea

    But I'm never gonna lose your precious gift,
    It will always be that way,
    And I know I'm gonna find my own peace of mind
    Some day, some way.

    NICE!!!

    This is for my friend......


    Just the other night at a hometown football game
    My wife nd I ran into my old high school flame
    And as I introduced them the past came back to me
    And I couldn't help but think of the way things used to be

    She was the one that I'd wanted for all times
    And each night I'd spend prayin' that God would make her mine
    And if he'd only grant me this wish I wished back then
    I'd never ask for anything again

    Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
    Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs
    That just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care
    Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

    She wasn't quite the angel that I remembered in my dreams
    And I could tell that time had changed me
    In her eyes too it seemed
    We tried to talk about the old days
    There wasn't much we could recall
    I guess the Lord knows what he's doin' after all

    And as she walked away and I looked at my wife
    And then and there I thanked the good Lord
    For the gifts in my life

    Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
    Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs
    That just because he may not answer doesn't mean he don't care
    Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

    Some of God's greatest gifts are all too often unanswered...
    Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

  • i know the truth about you, babe
    i know the stories that you tell
    and i can feel your heart locked up inside you
    swear i know you so well


    when the wind blows out across the water
    and we stand here in this light
    all our secrets fall like raindrops between us
    and i know the truth tonight

    i know the truth about you, babe
    i can feel it in your hands
    i can touch it when i'm sleeping
    i can love it when you can't


    if our ships sail onto distant places
    and our memories burn & fade
    i might say i loved a man just like you
    but i know the truth today

    i know the truth about you, babe
    where you fall and where you stand
    where your walls still come between us
    and where you take it like a man
    Life is the riddle
    Of which we're caught in the middle.

  • to the ends of the earth
    i'll search for your face
    for the one who laid all of our beauty to waste
    threw our hope into hell
    and our children to the fire

    i am the one who crawled through the wire
    i am the one who crawled through the wire

    there's a million sad stories on the side of the road
    strange how we all just got used to the blood
    millions of stories that'll never be told
    silent and froze in the mud
    silent and froze in the mud

    i know a cold as cold as it gets
    i know a darkness that's darker than coal
    a wind that blows as cold as it gets
    blew out the light in my soul
    blew out the light in my soul

    i dream in my sleep
    i dream in my days
    of some sunny street not so far away
    where up in the window
    a curtain will sway
    and you and i will meet down below
    you and i will meet down below

    i know a cold as cold as it gets
    i fight a war i may never see won
    i live only to see you live to regret
    everything that you've done
    everything that you've done
    everything that you've done
    Life is the riddle
    Of which we're caught in the middle.

    Memories of love creep in,
    quiet as a mouse,
    when you're finally sleeping
    and they fill the house.
    They begin their quaint folk dance.
    The bed starts to shake.
    Some get in your pajama pants,
    and you jolt awake.
    Some are like a sip of champagne,
    some are harder stuff;
    some are advertizing campaigns,
    memories of love.

    Every secret desire,
    every teenage crush,
    every little cragmire,
    come to make you blush.
    Every pecca-dillo, every sordid scene,
    what you said to your pillow,
    what you dare to dream.
    Some are vicious lies and libel,
    some are true enough;
    some are modern,
    some are tribal,
    memories of love.

    Every tearless farewell when a young man died in the empty stairwell where last she cried.
    You say, "That's not funny. Just go away."
    Soon you're down on one knee begging them to stay.
    Some are brilliant,
    some are awful,
    some are summer fluff;
    some are heavy Russian novels,
    memories of love.

    Some are trips through fields of daisies,
    some are pretty rough;
    some of them will drive you crazy,
    memories of love.

    Go ahead as you waste your days with thinking
    When you fall, everyone sins
    Another day and you've had your fill of sinking
    With the life held in your
    Hands are shaking cold
    These hands are meant to hold

    Speak to me
    When all you got to keep is strong
    Move along, move along like I know you do
    And even when your hope is gone
    Move along, move along just to make it through
    Move along
    Move along

    So a day when you've lost yourself completely
    Could be a night when your life ends
    Such a heart that will lead you to deceiving
    All the pain held in your
    Hands are shaking cold
    Your hands are mine to hold

    Speak to me
    When all you got to keep is strong
    Move along, move along like I know you do
    And even when your hope is gone
    Move along, move along just to make it through
    Move along
    (Go on, go on, go on, go on)

    When everything is wrong, we move along
    (Go on, go on, go on, go on)
    When everything is wrong, we move along
    Along, along, along

    When all you got to keep is strong
    Move along, move along like I know you do
    And even when your hope is gone
    Move along, move along just to make it through

    Move along
    (Go on, go on, go on, go on)
    Right back what is wrong
    We move along.
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    Have I told you how good it feels to be me,
    when I'm in you?
    I can only stay clean
    when you are around.
    Don't let me fall.
    If I close my eyes forever,
    would it ease the pain?
    Could I breathe again?

    Maybe I'm addicted,
    I'm out of control,
    but you're the drug
    that keeps me from dying.
    Maybe I'm a liar,
    but all I really know is
    you're the only reason I'm trying.

    I am wasted away,
    I made a million mistakes.
    Am I too late?
    There is a storm in my head;
    it rains on my bed
    when you are not here.
    I'm not afraid of dying,
    but I am afraid of losing you.

    Maybe I'm addicted,
    I'm out of control,
    but you're the drug
    that keeps me from dying.
    Maybe I'm a liar,
    but all I really know is
    you're the only reason I'm trying.

    When you're lying next to me
    love is going through to me.
    Oh it's beautiful.
    Everything is clear to me
    'till I hit reality
    and I lose it all...
    I lose it all...
    I lose it all.
    I lose it all...
    Nah nah nah
    nah nah nah....
    Nah nah nah nah nah nah.....
    nah nah nah nah nah nah....

    You're the only reason,
    Yeah, you're the only reason I'm trying,
    Oh, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying,
    Don't want to lose it all,
    Don't want to lose it all,
    I'm trying, I'm trying..
    I'm trying ...
    Yeah, you know I'm addicted,
    You know I'm addicted,
    Yeah, you know I'm addicted....

    I’ve always wanted
    To eat glass with you again
    But I never knew how
    How to talk without
    Walls dropping on the eve

    The nest they made couldn’t break you
    Along the fallen
    Scowled a fence of beaks
    But the temple is scathing
    Through your veins
    They were scaling
    Through an ice pick of abcess rekoning

    And when Miranda sang
    Everyone turned away
    Used to the noose
    They obey

    And whoever said that they would scatter
    Separating the mother from child
    She can bat a broken eyelid
    Raining maggots from it’s sty
    And with the traces that she leaves
    She will skin you out alive

    All the children go grinding their jaws
    The sweet smell of their toothless canals
    And the damn she will break
    Make an ocean from this lake
    As they siphon off all of our blood

    And when Miranda sang
    Everyone turned away
    Used to the noose
    They obey

    And when Miranda sang
    Everyone turned away
    Used to the noose
    They obey
    And when Miranda sang
    Everyone turned away
    Used to the noose
    They obey
    The car's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel
    And the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides

    Oh my mama told me
    'Cause she say she learned the hard way
    Say she wanna spare the children
    She say don't give or sell your soul away
    'Cause all that you have is your soul

    Don't be tempted by the shiny apple
    Don't you eat of a bitter fruit
    Hunger only for a taste of justice
    Hunger only for a world of truth
    'Cause all that you have is your soul

    I was a pretty young girl once
    I had dreams, I had high hopes
    I married a man who stole my heart away
    He gave his love but what a high price I paid
    And all that you have is your soul

    Why was I such a young fool
    Thought I'd make history
    Making babies was the best I could do
    Thought I made something that could be mine and forever
    Found out the hard way, one can't posess another
    And all that you have is your soul

    I thought that I could find a way
    To beat the system
    To make a deal and have no debts to pay
    I'd take it all, I'd take it all and I'd run away
    Me for myself, first class and first rate

    But all that you have is your soul

    Here I am, waiting for a better day
    A second chance
    A little luck to come my way
    A hope to dream, a hope that I can sleep again
    And wake in the world with a clear conscience and clean hands
    'Cause all that you have is your soul

    All that you have
    All that you have
    All that you have is your soul

    Where Will I Be-- Emmylou Harris

    The streets are cracked
    And there's glass everywhere
    And a baby stares out
    With motherless eyes
    Under long gone beauty
    On fields of war
    Trapped in lament
    To the poet's core

    Oh where oh where will I be
    Oh where oh when that trumpets sounds

    Met an Indian boy in Ottawa
    He laid me down on a bed of straw
    Said don't waste your breath
    Don't waste your heart
    Don't blister your heels
    Running in the dark

    Oh where oh where will I be
    Oh where oh when that trumpets sounds

    Yeah I like the heat
    Of your body laying under me
    May your wild lip get you where your going
    With your inventions your intentions, your laughter
    Your forever yearning

    Oh where oh where will I be
    Oh where oh when that trumpets sounds

    I walked to the river
    And I walked to the rim
    I walked through the teeth of the reaper's grin
    I walked to you rolled up in wire
    To the other side of desire

    Oh where oh where will I be
    Oh where oh when that trumpets sounds

    Oh where oh where oh where when that trumpet sounds
    Oh where oh where oh when that trumpet sounds

    Well the heart opens wide like it's never seen love
    And addiction stays on tight like a glove
    Oh where oh where will I be

    You knew that I was coming cause you heard my name
    But you don't know my game and never felt my pain
    Can't read my brain but you read my lips
    And got scared when you heard that I was coming with hits
    Now don't even trip, be a man instead
    Give thanks I'm alive when I should be dead
    I'm in the red cause my mind's distortin
    People claimin that they know me, but they only know a portion
    I'm a move mountains and touch the sun
    Don't get scared now, you knew this day would come
    So hold your bids, all bets are closed
    And fuck all you hoes

    Cause it's been a long time comin'
    But I finally broke like an egg yolk I ain't no joke
    Like some uncut dope motherfucker, Kid Rock's to blame
    Same game, same name, ain't a damn thing changed
    No sell-out, I ain't no hoe
    Fuck the radio...comin from the R-O-M-E-O
    Watch me throw like a fist of rage
    Self made and paid and sawed off twelve gauges
    Up that ass for the nine eight (nine eight)
    Never fake, shake, straight from the Great Lakes
    Seven years on wax comin correct
    Flat out you diss me punk
    That's when I pull a strap out
    And I get to buck-buck-bucking...a fuck-fuck-fucking your hoes
    Cause they know who's runnin' this shit, Top Dog I'm the C-E-O
    Role model, your mother-fucking H-E-R-O
    My motto, Be Cool...Keep Pimpin
    Don't sleep, we roll deep in a Lincoln
    Four Vogues on a hundred spokes
    We bust Biltmore Beavers and Top Dog Coats
    We float like butterflies, sting like queen bees
    Strapped with A-K's straight from the Chinese
    What the fuck's goin on in the D
    Bunch of white boys pimpin like the K-I-D
    And it's all good I got love for my honkeys
    We roll thick kick ass like donkeys
    Anybody fuck's with you and I'm gonna mack 'em

    Devil without a cause...I'm going platinum

    I'm going Platinum
    I'm going Platinum
    We're going platinum
    Devil without a cause...I'm going platinum

    Uh

    Yeah we come to party, so get down everybody
    (Come On)
    Yeah we come to party

    I went from St. Claire Shores and drink specials at Winners
    To New York City and 700 dollar dinners
    From hangin with sinners and second hand cheap sex
    To gettin much respect from top record exec's
    The cool Kid's comin up to call you out
    So shut up now or put my balls in your mouth
    Bet that ass hoss I ain't forgot
    When I was tossed in the dime baby left to rot
    Used to call me dummy when my nose was fucking runny
    Now my fuckin' bunnies gettin' fuckin' Matchbox 20 money
    Motherfuckers want to claim their down
    But when I was broke and down I never seen them around
    All the shit we talked, all the shit we dreamed
    I did it without you got a brand new team
    No triple beams it seems like a movie
    Bought two cribs, droptop, and jacuzzi
    No more fluzzies only high class hoes
    Couple when it rains and a few when it snows
    A brand new nose to go along with my habit
    And a garden hose made out of 24 karat
    Bought a couple parots that like to squak
    And they sound like you and all the shit you talk
    Step inside my shoes, you couldn't fill em doc
    You're too old to kid too soft to rock
    Already did what most love shout
    Seven years on wax and I still ain't sold out
    And there ain't no doubt...in my mind
    That I'm gonna stomp all over you test of time

    I'm go platinum
    I'm go platinum
    I'm go platinum
    Were going platinum
    Devil without a cause...I'm going platinum
    Uh
    Devil
    Come on
    Devil
    Uh...Uh
    Devil

    Straight out of the streets of Taylor

    3 foot high...ready to get fly...Joe C
    I'm the J-O-E to the C hoe
    Call me Joe C got more game than Coleco
    I'm a freak hoe call me sick
    Three foot nine with a ten foot dick
    The ladies pick, I'm a crazy hick
    And rake through kind like a bum through wine
    It's my time so I'm gonna shine like lead
    Old as piss, but small as ass
    Watch me pass smoke some hash
    You're raking grass while I'm raking cash
    High-ass voice like Aaron Nevelle
    And I'm down with The Devil

    Say we like to party, rock the party
    We like to party, rock the party
    We like to party, rock the party
    We like to party, rock the party
    You like to party, rock the party
    We like to party, rock the party
    You like to party, rock the party
    Devil without a cause...I'm going platinum
    Uh...Uh

    Been watching you baby
    For a long time
    You look so good
    Got my eyes on you
    I've been watching you
    For so very long
    Trying to get my nerve built up to be so strong
    I really want to meet you
    But i'm kind of scared
    Cause you're the kind of lady
    With so much class
    Get my thoughts together
    For the very next day
    But when i see you lady
    I forget what to say
    Your eyes and hair
    Such a beautiful tone
    The way you dress and walk
    It really turns me on
    Ooh you really turn me on
    Come on come on come on



    Come and talk to me
    I really want to meet you
    Can i talk to you
    I really want to know you
    Come and talk to me
    I really want to meet you
    Can i talk to you
    I really want to know you
    Oh, oh oh oh oh

    There you are again
    With the same smile each day
    I wanna know what it is that makes me feel this way
    I wish i could grab you
    Tell you what it means to me
    To see you walking by my way
    It really makes my day
    Before i go to sleep and dream about you
    I'm a single man
    I hope that you are single too
    Why do i seek
    Something to set my mind free
    Cause curiousity is buggin the hell outta me
    Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, baby

    Come and talk to me
    I really want to meet you
    Can i talk to you
    I really want to know you
    Come and talk to me
    I really want to meet you
    Can i talk to you
    I really want to know you

    I wanna know, you wanna tell me your name
    Let me play your game
    I wanna know, you wanna tell me your name
    Let me play your game

    down, fell by the wayside
    no getting out
    oh down, cry me a river
    dried up and dammed
    the names can be changed
    but the place is still the same
    i am loaded, told that all's for naught
    holds me down

    rise, life is in motion
    i'm stuck in line
    oh rise, you can't be neutral
    on a moving train
    one day the symptoms fade
    i think i'll throw these pills away
    and if hope could grow from dirt like me
    it can be done

    won't let the light escape from me
    won't let the darkness swallow me
    yeah!

    so long....

    I felt the earth on Monday. It moved beneath my feet.
    In the form of a morning paper. Laid out for me to see.

    Saw his face in a corner picture. I recognized the name.
    Could not stop staring at the. Face I'd never see again.

    It's a shame to awake in a world of pain
    What does it mean when a war has taken over

    It's the same everyday in a hell manmade
    What can be saved, and who will be left to hold her?

    The whole world...World over.
    It's a worldwide suicide.

    Medals on a wooden mantle. Next to a handsome face.
    That the president took for granted.
    Writing checks that others pay.

    And in all the madness. Thought becomes numb and naive.
    So much to talk about. Nothing for to say.

    It's the same everyday and the wave won't break
    Tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder

    Laying claim to the take that our soldiers save
    Does not equate, and the truth's already out there

    The whole world,... World over.
    It's a worldwide suicide.

    The whole world,... World over.
    It's a worldwide suicide.

    Looking in the eyes of the fallen
    You got to know there's another, another, another, another
    Another way

    It's a shame to awake in a world of pain
    What does it mean when a war has taken over

    It's the same everyday and the wave won't break
    Tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder

    The whole world,... World over.
    It's a worldwide suicide.

    The whole world,... World over.
    It's a worldwide suicide.
