Hotel California - Eagles

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night


There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
'This could be heaven or this could be hell'
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices in the corridor, thought I heard them say


Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (any time of year)
You can find it here


Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes-Benz
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget


So I called up the Captain
"Please bring me my wine"
He said "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine"
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night, just to hear them say


Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
They living it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a surprise)
Bring your alibis


Mirrors on the ceiling
The pink champagne on ice
And she said "we are all just prisoners here, of our own device"
And in the master's chamber
They gather for their feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast


Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax" said the night man
"We are programmed to receive.
You can check out any time you like
But you can never leave!"

Here, here, here we go
So they're finally here performing for you,
If you know the words you can join in too.
Put your hands together if you want to clap,
As we take you through this monkey rap.
Huh
D.K. Donkey Kong
He's the leader of the bunch, you know him well,
He's finally back, to kick some tail.
His coconut gun can fire in spurts,
If he shoots ya, it's gunna hurt.
He's bigger, faster, and stronger too,
He's the first member of the D. K. crew.
Huh
D.K. Donkey Kong
D.K. Donkey Kong is here.
This Kong's got style, so listen up dudes,
She can shrink in size to suite her mood.
She's quick and nimble when she needs to be,
She can flout through the air and clime up trees.
If you choose her, you'll not choose wrong,
With a skip and a hop, she's one cool Kong.
Huh
D.K. Donkey Kong
He has no style, he has not grace,
This Kong has a funny face.
He can handstand when he needs to
And stretch his arms out just for you,
Inflate himself just like a balloon.
This crazy Kong just digs this tune.
Huh
D.K. Donkey Kong
D.K. Donkey Kong is here.
He's back again and about time too
And this time he's in the mood.
He can fly real high with his jetpack on,
With his pistols out, he's one cool Kong.
He'll make you smile when he play's his tune,
But Kremlins beware 'cause he's after you.
Huh
D.K. Donkey Kong
Huh
Finally he's here for you he's here for you,
It's the last member of the D.K. crew.
This Kong's so strong, it isn't funny,
He'll make a Kremlin cry out for mommy.
He can pick up a bolder with relative ease
Make crushing rocks seem such a breeze.
He may move stow, he can't jump high,
but this Kong's one hell of a guy.
Huh
C'mon Cranky take it to the fridge
Walnuts, peanuts, pineapple smells,
Grapes melons oranges and coconut shells.
Walnuts, peanuts, pineapple smells,
Grapes melons oranges and coconut shells.
Oh yeah

Drag him out your window
Dragging out your dead
Singing I miss you
Snakes and ladders
Flip the lid
Out pops the cracker
Smacks you in the head
Knifes you in the neck
Kicks you in the teeth
Steel toe caps
Takes all your credit cards
Get up get the gunge
Get the eggs
Get the flan in the face
The flan in the face
The flan in the face
Dance you ****er dance you ****er
Don't you dare
Don't you dare
Don't you flan in the face
Take it with the love is given
Take it with a pinch of salt
Take it to the taxman
Let me back let me back
I promise to be good
Don't look in the mirror
At the face you don't recognize
Help me call the doctor
Put me inside
Put me inside
Put me inside
Put me inside
Put me inside

I keep the wolf from the door
But he calls me up
Calls me on the phone
Tells me all the ways that he's gonna mess me up
Steal all my children
If I don't pay the ransom
But I'll never see them again
If I squeal to the cops
No no no no no no no:

Walking like giant cranes ah
With my x ray eyes i strip you naked
In a tight little world and why are you on the list?
Stepford wives who are we to complain?
Investments and dealers investments and dealers
Cold wives and mistresses
Cold wives and sunday papers.
City boys in first class
Don't know we're born little
Someone else is gonna come and clean it up
Born and raised for the job
Someone else always does always pick it up
Get over get up get over
Turn the tape off.

I keep the wolf from the door
But he calls me up
Calls me on the phone
Tells me all the ways that he's gonna mess me up
Steal all my children
If I don't pay the ransom
But I'll never see them again
If I squeal to the cops
So I'm just gonna'

Blue October - Chameleon Boy

I changed my colour for you
I shed my coat with caution
I lack the beauty you display
See here there are the bruises
And some were self-inflicted
And some showed up along the way
So i nod my head
I'm ready for the world to see
The secret I kept here inside the man you thought I'd be
Slipped into coma calm
The coma where I calm myself down
Here comes excuses why I let you down

Stand by for another breakdown
Sound off the alarm
Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become
Chameleon boy
Chameleon boy

So now we've come upon the hardest thing I've ever done
It's telling you that I'm a mess
What sort of mess I mean
Is self-destructive gasoline
The kind that strips you of your best
And while I play instead the way that most would end up dead
You sleep alone at home and wish that I was in our bed
With this I'm telling you
My colour changes back to blue
How do I ask you this...
Will you help me through?

Stand by for another breakdown
Sound off the alarm
Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become?

Stand by for another breakdown
Sound off the alarm
Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become?
Chameleon boy
Chameleon boy

I try to think of all the people I looked up to
Or growing up who would I be
Now the twisted part:
Where did all my idols end up?
They've all passed away
Passed away

Stand by
It's the chameleon boy
Stand by
It's the chameleon boy

Chameleon boy
I'm chameleon boy...
Chameleon boy...
I'm chameleon boy

"A Wolf At The Door"- Radiohead

You really don't understand how much I love this song.

Which reminds me...

2+2=5 - Radiohead

Are you such a dreamer
To put the world to rights?
I stay home forever
Where two and two always makes up five

I lay down the tracks
Sandbag and hide
January has april's showers
And two and two always makes up five

Its the devil's way now
There is no way out
You can scream it, you can shout
It is too late now

Because

You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention

I try to sing along
But I get it all wrong
'Cause I'm not
'Cause I'm not
I swat 'em like flies but like flies the bugs keep coming back, not
But I'm not
All hail to the thief
All hail to the thief
But I'm not
But I'm not
But I'm not
But I'm not
Don't question my authority or put me in the box
'Cause I'm not
'Cause I'm not
Oh go and tell the king that the sky is falling in
When it's not
But it's not
But it's not
Maybe not
Maybe not

Blue October - Razorblade

In the day by day collision
Called the art of growing up
There's an innocence we look for in the stars
To be taken back to younger days
When there was no giving up
On the people we held closest to our hearts

Yeah it is you that I remember in that glowing
It is you that took my first away from me
It is you I set my standards to... to every walk of life
I haven't met another you since you were with me.

Sing with me

A brief bout with a razorblade cut me
I freaked out, thinking people didn't love me
I watched closely as the you I knew forgot me
In letting go, I am so proud of what I've done

And In a way, I failed religion
I spit the wine from mouth to cup
And I reached for something more than just your God
Uncle, you spared not your children
And while your praying hands were up
There's no forgiveness for you! You sick ****!

Because it is you that I remember in their bedroom
It is you that took their first away from them
It is you they set their standards to
You wounded them for life
You were a preacher and suppose to be above men

Sing with me

A brief bout with a razorblade cut me
I freaked out, thinking people didn't love me
I watched closely as the you I knew forgot me
In letting go, I am so proud of what I've done

A brief bout with a razorblade cut me
I freaked out, thinking people didn't love me
I watched closely as the you I knew forgot me
In letting go, I am so proud of what I've done

Leningrad - Billy Joel
Viktor was born the spring of '44
And never saw his father any more
A child of sacrifice, a child of war
Another son who never had a father after Leningrad

Went off to school and learned to serve the state,
Followed the rules and drank his vodka straight
The only way to live was drown the hate
Russian life was very sad
And such was life in Leningrad

I was born in '49
A Cold War kid in McCarthy time
Stop 'em all at the 38th parallel,
Blast those yellow reds to hell
And Cold War kids were hard to kill
Under their desks in an air raid drill
Haven't they heard that we won the war,
What do they keep on fighting for?

Viktor was sent to some red army town
Served out his time, became a circus clown
The greatest happiness he'd ever found
Was making Russian children glad
And children lived in Leningrad

But children lived in Levittown
And hid in the shelters underground
'Til the Soviets turned their ships around,
And tore the Cuban missiles down
And in that bright October sun
We knew our childhood days were done
And I watched my friends go off to war
What do they keep on fighting for?

And so my child and I came to this place
To meet him, eye to eye on face to face
He made my daughter laugh, then we embraced
We never knew what friends we had
Until we came to Leningrad

Def Leppard - Two Steps Behind


Walk away if you want to
it's ok, if you need to
you can run, but you can never hide
From the shadow that's creeping up beside you
There's a magic running through your soul
But you can't have it all

(Whatever you do)
I'll be two steps behind you
(Wherever you go)
and I'll be there to remind you
that it only takes a minute of your precious time
to turn around and I'll be two steps behind.

Take the time
to think about it
Walk the line, you know you just can't fight it
Take a look around and see what you can find
Like the fire that's burning up inside me,
There's a magic running through your soul
But you can't have it all

(Whatever you do)
I'll be two steps behind you
(Wherever you go)
and I'll be there to remind you
that it only takes a minute of your precious time
to turn around and I'll be two steps behind.

There's a magic running through your soul
but you, you can't have it all
(Whatever you do)
I'll be two steps behind you
(wherever you go)
and I'll be there to remind you
that it only takes a minute of your precious time
To turn around and I'll be two steps behind.

Two steps behind
yeah, baby
two steps behind
ohh, sugar
two steps behind

Ballad of the Mighty I - Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds

Followed you down to the end of the world
To wait outside your window
The Heat of the rain I would call your name
But you just pass me by
You put me up like a fly on the wall
You'll be to blame when the heavens fall
Give me a sign that you hear me call
You just pass me by
The colours around me are fading away
And I'll be waiting, come what May
I'll find you (I'll find you), Yes I'll find you (Yes I'll find you)
If I gotta be the man who walks the earth alone

I followed the stars and I sailed to the sun
And held it in my fingers
Alone on a beach, on my own out of reach
But you just passed me by
I'd give you the world if you take my hand
But you left me alone in the sinking sand
Strike up the band for one last stand
And you just pass me by
Show me the rules of the games you play
I'll be waiting, come what may
I'll find you (I'll find you), Yes I'll find you (Yes I'll find you)
If I gotta be the man who walks the earth
I'll find you (I'll find you), Yes I'll find you (Yes I'll find you)
If I gotta be the man who walks the earth alone

Followed you now to the end of the world
And wait outside your window
The heat of the rain I call your name
And you just pass me by
Wherever you are I'll be on your tail
Whatever you're hiding behind your veil
I'll find you (I'll find you), Yes I'll find you (Yes I'll find you)
If I gotta be the man who walks the earth
I'll find you (I'll find you), Yes I'll find you (Yes I'll find you)
If I gotta be the man who walks the earth alone

Garbage - Bleed Like Me

Avalanche is sullen and too thin
She starves herself to rid herself of sin
And the kick is so divine
When she sees bones beneath her skin
And she says, "Hey, baby, can you bleed like me?
C'mon, baby, can you bleed like me?"

Chris is all dressed up and acting coy
Painted like a brand new Christmas toy
He's trying to figure out if he's a girl or he's a boy
And he says, "Hey, baby, can you bleed like me?
C'mon baby can you bleed like me?"

Doodle takes Dad's scissors to her skin
And when she does relief comes setting in
While she hides the scars
She's making underneath her pretty clothes
She sings, "Hey, baby, can you bleed like me?
C'mon baby can you bleed like me?"

Therapy is Speedie's brand new drug
Dancing with the devil's past has never been too fun
It's better off than trying to take a bullet from a gun
And she cries, "Hey, baby, can you bleed like me?
C'mon baby can you bleed like me?

JT gets all ****ed up in some karaoke bar
After two drinks he's a loser, after three drinks he's a star
Getting all nostalgic he sings 'I Will Survive'

Hey, baby, can you bleed like me?
C'mon baby, can you bleed like me?
Hey, baby, can you bleed like me?
C'mon baby, can you bleed like me?

You should see my scars
You should see my scars
You should see my scars
You should see my scars

Try to comprehend that which you'll never comprehend
Try to comprehend that which you'll never comprehend
Just try to comprehend that which you'll never comprehend
Try to comprehend that which you'll never comprehend

You should see my scars
You should see my scars

I'm here to collect your hearts
It's the only reason that I sing
I don't believe a word you say but I can't stop listening
This is the story of how they met
Her picture was on the back of a pack of cigarettes
When she touched him he turned ruby red
A story that they'll never forget
Never forget

And all the boys are smoking menthols
Girls are getting back rubs
I will drift to you if you make yourself shake fast enough
My old aches become new again
My old friends become exes again

Whoa, where did the party go?
We're ending it on the phone
I'm not gonna go home alone
Whoa, where did the party go?

Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na

I know I expect too much
And not enough all at once
You know I only wanted fun then you got me all ****ed up on love
Oh I hoped for your name on the Ouija Board
And your naked magic, oh dear Lord
You and me are the difference between real love and the love on TV, love on TV

And all the boys are smoking menthols
Girls are getting back rubs
I will drift to you if you make yourself shake fast enough
My old aches become new again
My old friends become exes again, yeah

Whoa, where did the party go?
We're ending it on the phone
I'm not gonna go home alone
Whoa, where did the party go?

Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na

We were the kids who screamed
"We weren't the same, " in sweaty rooms
Now we're doomed to organizing walk-in closets like tombs
Silent film stars stuck in talking cinema life
So let's fade away together one dream at a time

Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na

Whoa, where did the party go?
We're ending it on the phone
I'm not gonna go home alone
Whoa, where did the party go?

Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na

Uh-huh huh huhhh
Let me tell ya now
Uh-huh
(Mmhhmmm)

When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look

Oh baby, give me one more chance
(To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me back in your heart
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go
(Let you go, baby)
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)
Yes I do now
(I want you back)
Ooh ooh baby
(I want you back)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
(I want you back)
Na na na na

Trying to live without your love is one long sleepless night
Let me show you, girl, that I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground
Following the girl I didn't even want around

Let me tell ya now
Oh baby, all I need is one more chance
(To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me back in your heart
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go
(Let you go, baby)
But now since I see you in his arms

All I want...
All I need...
All I want!
All I need!

Oh, just one more chance
To show you that I love you
Baby baby baby baby baby baby!
(I want you back)
Forget what happened then
(I want you back)
And let me live again!

Oh baby, I was blind to let you go
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)
Spare me of this cause
(I want you back)
Give me back what I lost!

Oh baby, I need one more chance, hah
I tell you that I love you
Baby, oh! Baby, oh! Baby, oh!
I want you back!
I want you back!

Garbage - It's All Over But The Crying

Everything you think you know, baby
Is wrong
And everything you think you had, baby
Is gone

Certain things turn ugly when you think too hard
And nagging little thoughts change into things you can't turn off
Everything you think you know baby
Is wrong

It's all over but the crying
Fade to black I'm sick of trying
Took too much and now I'm done
It's all over but the crying

Do you really think I'm made of stone, baby?
C'mon!
That we only love the things we own?
Baby, you're wrong

Certain things just happen when you make no plans
And love can really tear you up and it can break you down
Everything you think you know, baby
Is wrong

It's all over but the crying
Fade to black I'm sick of trying
Took too much and now I'm done
It's all over but the crying

Baby we're done

If I could I would
I'd change everything
'Cause I can't forget you though you don't believe me
Now I can't walk back
I can't leave behind
Where does it go all the light that we had?

Everything you think you know, baby
Is wrong
And everything you think you had, baby
Is gone

Baby we're done

Surprise Surprise - Billy Talent

You got the look, but not the credit
They wrote the book, on how to sell it
From cigarettes, to skinny jeans
You got the money? They got the means
-
All you upper class daughters, and working class sons
It's hard to save a dollar, the way the world runs
You're the target market of a corporate joke
It won't be so ironic when your daddy is broke

Surprise surprise, surprise surprise
You're much better looking when you're in disguise
Surprise surprise, surprise surprise
And this revolution has been brought to you by

Just find a stamp, so you can mimic
The tortured artist, the jaded cynic
The latest gadget, is just a gimmick
Another sucker, born every minute
-
Well I'm sick of this town, bringing me down
A first world epidemic all around
I'm sick of this town, bringing me down
A lost generation trying to act profound
-
All you upper class daughters, and working class sons
It's hard to save a dollar the way the world runs
We got a counterculture you can buy off a shelf
If you're losing your identity, try somebody else!

Surprise surprise, surprise surprise
You're much better looking when you're in disguise
Surprise surprise, surprise surprise
And this revolution has been brought to you by
Those who seem to think we don't care
And those who seem to think we're not aware
Surprise surprise, surprise surprise
You're much better looking when you're in disguise


All you working class daughters, and upper class sons
It's hard to save a dollar the way the world runs
We're the target market of a corporate hoax
Our generation is a ****ing joke

Surprise surprise, surprise surprise
You're much better looking when you're in disguise
Surprise surprise, surprise surprise
And this revolution has been brought to you by
Those who seem to think we don't care
And those who seem to think we're not aware
Surprise surprise, surprise surprise
You're much better looking when you're in disguise!
