from the album C’Mon, C’Mon
Can’t you see I’m holding your flag
The one that you left on the ground
Well is the world too heavy for you
If it makes you feel better, I’ll carry it, too
No one’s gonna stand in your light
I’mpressions are easy to fight
But until you turn to me and say
You don’t need anyone to carry the weight, I will stay o
[CHORUS:]
Abilene
Bring it on home to me
Abilene
Isn’t it good to be free o
Can’t you see I’m wearing your shirt
The one with the heart on the sleeve
Everyone can see you’ve been hurt
But honey don’t give up on me
When you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna get out of bed
Well everyday you’re gonna find
Broken promises are no worse than words never said
[CHORUS]
Then you want someone to come along and save the day
Well you make it much too hard
[CHORUS]
by Gamma Ray
from the album N/A
Do you believe in the afterworld
Or the afterlife?
Do you agree there’s a place for us
Beyond our life
Where the timeless call for life
Is lost and you will see
The forgotten dreams
That you once had become reality
They will be set free – another day
You cannot leave if you do not want to stay
In the afterlife – in the afterlife
Life’s a dream that you will forget
In the endless space
And the scars you got on planet Earth
Will be erased
You were blind until your eyes have stopped to see
And your powers unfold by the moment
You hit eternity
You will be set free
But you’ll never return
That’s the price you have to pay
In the afterlife – in the afterlife
Now you’re gone without a word
You didn’t say goodbye
I miss you here where are you now
An angel in the sky?
Your visit here has been so short
You left to be set free
But I believe we’ll meet again
And together we will stay
In the afterlife – in the afterlife
In the afterlife – in the afterlife
by Def Leppard
from the album High ‘N’ Dry
Union Jack is back with a hole in his head
He’s gettin’ badly burned every time
He’s laughin’ at me and dancin’ on my sneakers
And his sixties songs are blowin’ up my speakers
I say you got no respect
Respect for authority
You’re just playing your dirty tricks
And then come cryin’ to me
Hit and run, hit and run
It’s just a hit and run
Another hit and run
The bulldog lost his bite and his breath has gone bad
And the whole damn world is really laughin’ mad
[Repeat Bridge]
[Repeat Chorus]
Hit it!!
Oh bring it down
Oh you bring it down
I say you ain’t got no respect
I say you ain’t got no respect
No you ain’t got no respect
And you hit me when I’m down
Hit and run, hit and run
It’s just another hit and run
I said it’s just another hit and run
Oh yeah, hit and run
Oh yeah, hit and run
Oh yeah, hit and run
Oh yeah, hit and run
Oh yeah, hit and run
It’s just another hit and run
Hit and run
by Maxwell
from the album N/A
Hey babe, it’s been a long while
Baby, baby, been a mighty long time
I watched you, even though you would not see baby
(Check it)
Glad to see that you’re still so fine and
I remember you back when
Girl you blew my mind
And I saw you, even though you would not see
Lady, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby, baby
[1] – Be as you are
Girl it’s okay with me
You’re such a star
Maybe one day you’ll see
That whatever you are
I’m just hoping you’ll be, as my girl, girl
Oh I need to be back
Back by your side
Sugar back way back when
Kissing was a crime
I miss you and I know you miss me
Baby, oh
Baby, baby, baby
[Repeat 1]
Babygirl, showing off cars with the laughter
You’re my world (my world)
Paradise from deception
How about you and me ever after as my girl?
[Repeat 1 till end]
by Tears For Fears
from the album Saturnine Martial & Lunatic
Do you remember a guy that’s been
In such an early song
I’ve heard a rumour from Ground Control
Oh no, don’t say it’s true
They got a message from the Action Man
Oh happy, hope you’re happy too
I’ve loved all I’ve needed love
Sordid details following"
The shrieking of nothing is killing
Just pictures of Jap girls in synthesis and
I ain’t got no money and I ain’t got no hair
And I’d quit but the planet it’s glowing
Ashes to ashes, fun to funky
We know Major Tom’s a junkie
Strung out in heaven’s high
Hitting an all-time low
Time and again I tell myself
I’ll stay clean tonight
But the little green wheels are following me
Oh no, not again
I’m stuck with a valuable friend
Oh happy, hope you’re happy too
One flash of light but no smoking pistol
I’ve never done good things
I’ve never done bad things
I’ve never done anything out of the blue, woh-o-oh
I want an axe to break the ice
I wanna come down right now
Ashes to ashes, fun to funky
We know Major Tom’s a junkie
Strung out in heaven’s high
Hitting an all-time low
My mama said to get things done
You’d better not mess with Major Tom
My mama said to get things done
You’d better not mess with Major Tom
My mama said to get things done
You’d better not mess with Major Tom
My mama said to get things done
You’d better not mess with Major Tom
by Heart
from the album Bad Animals
I hear the ticking of the clock
I’m lying here the room’s pitch dark
I wonder where you are tonight
No answer on the telephone
And the night goes by so very slow
Oh I hope that it won’t end though
Alone
Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
You don’t know how long I have waited
and I was going to tell you tonight
But the secret is still my own
and my love for you is still unknown
Alone
Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
Alone, alone
by Backstreet Boys
from the album Black & Blue
You see me sitting here, a smile upon my face
The time has come but you know that it’s not too late
There’s been too many things, together we have seen
It’s not too hard if we start to believe
And we’re not gonna take anymore
Can we try to erase all the pain
So please
Show me a reason, give me a sign
Tell me the way we, fall out of line
Is it today or is it tonight?
We’ll find, the answer to our life
This world is not at ease, we seem to hide the truth
Thinking there’s only so much we really can do
It’s up to you and me, to face our destiny
The journey’s here so let’s take the stand
And we’re not gonna take anymore
Can we try to erase all the pain
So Please
Show me a reason, give me a sign
Tell me the way we, fall out of line
Is it today or is it tonight?
We’ll find, the answer to our life
Tell me why we have to cry
And I try
When there’s so many things we can do
To help this troubled world start a new
I need a reason, I need a sign
There’s no turning back I’m here by your side
Is it today or maybe tonight?
We’ll find
The answer to our life
Show me the way, give me the sign
Tell me the way we fall out of line
Is it today, is it tonight
The answer to our life
Show me a reason, give me a sign
Tell me the way we, fall out of line
Is it today or is it tonight?
We will find, the answer to our life
Show me a reason, give me a sign
Tell me the way we, fall out of line
Is it today or is it tonight?
We’ll find, the answer to our life

from the album So Blu
All you had to say
Was that you want me
All you had to say
Was that you cared
All you had to say
Was that you love me
Instead you were
Never really there
You came into my life
When I was with somebody else
I opened up my heart to you
And told you how I felt
I never looked at you
As nothing more than just a friend
But your sweet words
Your sweet kiss
Baby let you right in
Damn you was good
Damn you was tight
I wish I knew you ere no good
That you were just a liar
All you had to say
Was that you want me
All you had to say
Was that you cared
All you had to say
Was that you love me
Instead you were
Never really there
Just the sound of your voice
Makes me realize
How much i don’t need you
In my life
So don’t you call me on the phone
‘Cause you’re just wasting time
And as a matter of fact
I swear you don’t even
Cross my mind
Damn you was good
Damn you was tight
I wish I knew you ere no good
That you were just a liar
All you had to say
Was that you want me
All you had to say
Was that you cared
All you had to say
Was that you love me
Instead you were
Never really there
Say goodbye
To the best thing
That you’ve ever ha
Say goodnight
To the dreams of us getting back
No more wishing on a star
For you and me
‘Cause in my heart you and me
We’ll never be
All you had to say
Was that you want me
All you had to say
Was that you cared
All you had to say
Was that you love me
Instead you were
Never really there

Lazy-ass gentlemans.. may I have yo’ drunk-ass attention please
Comin to you motherfuckers live on stage here tonight
I’d like to present.. the most intoxicated, most inbreezeiated
Most anpissipated, group of our time – the 40 Oz, Quartet
Take it away, gentlemans
[J-Ro]
It’s the cap twistin clique that get you sick off one sip
of this concoction – pass it to a nigga like Stockton
Grape juice, Johnny Walker, Olde E, and Hennesey
So much Remi in my kidney they had to send me to Sidney
to find a remedy, from drinkin kegs all alone
I wish they’d leave my head alone, I’m just an alkie to the bone
They try to send me to AA, I said "Ay ay!"
Not today-day, I just bought a bottle of Tan-gueray-ray
But first I gots to finish, my eight ball and Guinness
I’m feelin so dry now man, I must replenish
Ohhhh I like the gurrrls with the fat backs
But I be so damn wet I never get a chance to smack that
Straight out of order sign on the weenie
Wasted chips buyin a bitch a gang of apple martinis
I’m.. just.. a drunk (I can’t help myself)
I’m.. just.. a drunk (Drinkin X.O. off the top shelf)
I’m.. just.. a drunk (No I can’t help myself)
I’m.. just.. a drunk-k

Everyday and night I pray
Love will swing you back this way
Life without you here with me
Ain’t the same without you G
Baby hear me, I never meant to hurt you
Baby come and talk to me
Let me know what’s on your mind
Every time I see you
You’re running from me all the time
Baby hear me, I never meant to hurt you
I only wanted you to be happy
You to have the best of things
To be down with me, baby
‘Cause your lovin’, it’s so good
You’re giving me the run-around
Thought our love was going down
Baby don’t you know
That I’m down until the day I die
Baby hear me, never meant to hurt you
Now you know I’ll never do anything to hurt you
‘Cause baby I love you
Every night and day I pray
Your love returns
Oh I’d give my life
If it would only make you happy
[Rap (Notorious B.I.G)]
Sittin’ reminiscin’ on when you started dissin’
Spittin’ in faces in public places
Rolexes with faces had you chipper for months
Made some dough, did some shows, now you’re starting to front
Smokin’ blunts on the veranda with Amanda
She’s fillin’ your head with he said, she said
Poppa doin’ this, Poppa doin’ that
But don’t tell him I said it ’cause my Jeep might get wetted
Forget it, go on take her word like the Koran
Ya’ll stay friends, I’ll stay and smoke Phil Benzs
Honeysuckle sets, Biggie secret pyjama sets
You were the Reebok vandal, now you were Chanel sandals
I made you – why would I play you?
Think about it while the streets you roam
It’s all peas and crispies in the fridge when you get home
[Chorus]
You to be, be happy
You to have the best of things
Baby everything you want it for baby
You to be down with me
So give me that ass back baby
‘Cause your lovin’ is so good, so damn good, babe
Everyday and night I pray love will swing you back this way
Life without you here with me ain’t the same without you G
[Chorus]
