Lyrically Speaking - 3/6/14

#1 Post by MarcelMarceau » Thu Mar 06, 2014 7:26 am

:?


1. Never gonna stop, give it up, such a dirty mind
I always get it up for the touch of the younger kind

2. Jackie is just speeding away,
Thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash,
Valium would have helped that bash

3. The one who insists he was first in the line
Is the last to remember her name
He`s walking around in this dress that she wore
She is gone but the joke`s the same

4. Our memories
They can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frightening

5. Hold tight wait till the party's over
Hold tight We're in for nasty weather
There has got to be a way

6. Just like Adam and Eve.
Said you'd set me free, you took me to the sky
I'd never been so high
You were my pills, you were my thrills
You were my hope baby, you were my smoke

7. I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space

8. Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you

9. There's times I've been mistaken
There's times I've thought I've been misunderstood
So wait a minute darlin'
can't you see we did the best we could

10. I wanna jump but I'm afraid I'll fall
I wanna holler but the joint's too small

11. I, I got a new life, you would hardly recognize me, I'm so glad
How can a person like me care for you?
I, why do I bother, when you're not the one for me?
Oo-hoo-hoo-oo-oo
Is enough enough?

12. Lost control and rang your bell, I was sore
Let me in or else I'll beat down your door

13. Well I think it's time to get ready
To relax just what I have found
I have lived only half of what I am
It's all clear to me now

14. When everything feels all over
Everybody seems unkind
I'll give you a four-leaf clover
Take all worry out of your mind

:?


1. Never gonna stop, give it up, such a dirty mind
I always get it up for the touch of the younger kind

"My Sharona" - The Knack

2. Jackie is just speeding away,
Thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash,
Valium would have helped that bash

3. The one who insists he was first in the line
Is the last to remember her name
He`s walking around in this dress that she wore
She is gone but the joke`s the same

4. Our memories
They can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frightening

5. Hold tight wait till the party's over
Hold tight We're in for nasty weather
There has got to be a way

"Burning Down the House" - Talking Heads

6. Just like Adam and Eve.
Said you'd set me free, you took me to the sky
I'd never been so high
You were my pills, you were my thrills
You were my hope baby, you were my smoke

7. I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space

"Crazy" - Gnarls Barkley

8. Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you

9. There's times I've been mistaken
There's times I've thought I've been misunderstood
So wait a minute darlin'
can't you see we did the best we could

"Cuts Like a Knife" - Bryan Adams

10. I wanna jump but I'm afraid I'll fall
I wanna holler but the joint's too small

11. I, I got a new life, you would hardly recognize me, I'm so glad
How can a person like me care for you?
I, why do I bother, when you're not the one for me?
Oo-hoo-hoo-oo-oo
Is enough enough?

"The Sign" - Ace of Base

12. Lost control and rang your bell, I was sore
Let me in or else I'll beat down your door

13. Well I think it's time to get ready
To relax just what I have found
I have lived only half of what I am
It's all clear to me now

14. When everything feels all over
Everybody seems unkind
I'll give you a four-leaf clover
Take all worry out of your mind

"Let My Love Open the Door" - Pete Townshend
