I heard there was a secret chord

That David played and it pleased the Lord

But you don't really care for music, do you?

It goes like this,

the fourth,

the fifth,

the minor fall,

the major lift,

the baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah .

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelu----jah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof,

you saw her bathing on the roof,

her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you

She tied you to a kitchen chair,

she broke your throne,

she cut your hair,

and from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelu----jah

Maybe I have been here before,

I know this room;

I have walked this floor,

I used to live alone before I knew you

I've seen your flag on the marble arch,

love is not a victory march,

it's a cold and its a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelu----jah

There was a time you let me know

whats really going on below,

but now you never show it to me, do you? (and)

Remember when I moved in you;

the holy dark was moving too,

and every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelu----jah

Maybe there's a God above,

and all I ever learned from love

was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you

And its not a cry you can hear at night,

its not somebody who's seen the light,

its a cold and its a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelu--jah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelu---u---jah

We all came out to Montreux

On the Lake Geneva shoreline

To make records with a mobile

We didn't have much time

Frank Zappa and the Mothers

Were at the best place around

But some stupid with a flare gun

Burned the place to the ground

Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

They burned down the gambling house

It died with an awful sound

Funky Claude was running in and out

Pulling kids out the ground

When it all was over

We had to find another place

But Swiss time was running out

It seemed that we would lose the race

Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

We ended up at the Grand Hotel

It was empty cold and bare

But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside

Making our music there

With a few red lights and a few old beds

We make a place to sweat

No matter what we get out of this

I know we'll never forget

Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

As I read the letters that you wrote to me

Well it's you, it's you that I’m thinking of

As I read the lines that to me were so sweet

I remember our faded love

I miss you darlin' more and more everyday

As heaven would miss the stars above

With every heartbeat, I still think of you

And remember our faded love

As I think of the past, all the pleasures that we had

As I watch the mating of the doves

It was in the springtime that you said goodbye

I remember our faded love

I miss you darlin' more and more everyday

As heaven would miss the stars above

With every heartbeat, I still think of you

And remember our faded love

-Bob Wills and John Wills

Faded Love

Oh, give me fresh horses, let me ride the wild beast

Women in houses, I can't deal with their heat.

they seek salvation, I'm not sure if it's theirs anymore...

... my treasures, my ... to be own I not quite sure,

.... that I'm messin for Nobody's talking,

I can swear that I've seen it before I've seen it before.

I don't know why, I don't know why

Ten men standing with their backs to the wall Shrink

from the knowledge, They throw gold in a hole

What's really sad how, you know, They don't mind at all

Don't give me gestures You don't know what they mean

...Same old expressions, Same familiar old themes

Your body's talking, I can swear that I've heard it all before

I don't know why you lied, I don't know why you lied

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why,

She Said I don't know why you lied,

I don't know why you lied I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why

You know when the deal goes down

It's time to leave and you're on your own

I will walk with you In my very heart you'll find a home

She said "Maybe you will" I said "Maybe I will, maybe I won't. With me, I won't"

She said "Maybe you will" I said "Whatever you do, is whatever you do"

Whatever you do, is what-whatever you do

Whatever you do, whatever you do Oh, oh, oh

And she said Come let me ride Come let me ride the wild beast

Come let me ride Come let me ride the wild beast

The wild beast, the wild beast, the wild beast.

She said-Robert Plant

Killing of Georgie--- Rod Stewart

In these days of changing ways

so called liberated days

a story comes to mind of a friend of mine

Georgie boy was gay I guess

nothin' more or nothin' less

the kindest guy I ever knew

His mother's tears fell in vain

the afternoon George tried to explain

that he needed love like all the rest

Pa said there must be a mistake

how can my son not be straight

after all I've said and done for him

Leavin' home on a Greyhound bus

cast out by the ones he loves

A victim of these gay days it seems

Georgie went to New York town

where he quickly settled down

and soon became the toast of the great white way

Accepted by Manhattan's elite

in all the places that were chic

No party was complete without George

Along the boulevards he'd cruise

and all the old queens blew a fuse

Everybody loved Georgie boy

The last time I saw George alive

was in the summer of seventy-five

he said he was in love I said I'm pleased

George attended the opening night

of another Broadway hype

but split before the final curtain fell

Deciding to take a short cut home

arm in arm they meant no wrong

A gentle breeze blew down Fifth Avenue

Out of a darkened side street came

a New Jersey gang with just one aim

to roll some innocent passer-by

There ensued a fearful fight

screams rang out in the night

Georgie's head hit a sidewalk cornerstone

A leather kid, a switchblade knife

He did not intend to take his life

He just pushed his luck a little too far that night

The sight of blood dispersed the gang

A crowd gathered, the police came

An ambulance screamed to a halt on Fifty-third and Third

Georgie's life ended there

but I ask who really cares

George once said to me and I quote

He said "Never wait or hesitate

Get in kid, before it's too late

You may never get another chance

'Cos youth a mask but it don't last

live it long and live it fast"

Georgie was a friend of mine

Oh Georgie stay, don't go away

Georgie please stay you take our breath away

Oh Georgie stay, don't go away

Georgie please stay you take our breath away

Oh Georgie stay, don't go away

Georgie, Georgie please stay you take our breath away

Oh Georgie stay

Nick Lowe - All Men Are Liars lyrics

All Men, All Men are liars their words aint worth no more than worn out tires.

Hey Girls, bring rusty pliers to pull this tooth, all men are liars and that's the truth.

Do you remember Rick Astley?

He had a big fat hit that was ghastly.

He said Im never gonna give you up or let you down.

Well Im here to tell ya that Dicks a clown

Though he was just a boy when he made that vow.

Id bet it all that he knows by now.

Chorus

Among gods creatures man must be.

The most slimy and slippery now.

There stands the naked ape in a monkey suite.

Behind a little mustache he grew, the shifty brute.

All the ones not choking on the words they ate are

Sweating on getting their stories straight.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK

Smoking marijuana

Watching channel five

Got to get my strength up

In this struggle to survive

Everyone's an asshole

Everyone's a creep

I look out my window

And there's garbage in the streets

I live in the city

I breathe dirty air

I ride trains with b-boys

junkies, queens and squares

Everybody's hungry

I don't know what to do

I used to live on pizza

Now I live on Chinese food

I can't stand my neighbors

Screaming all the time

If I wasn't blasting Sister ray

I could lose my mind

I live in the city

I breathe dirty air

I ride trains with b-boys

junkies, queens and squares

Safely someone's smiling

The fat man waits his turn

Soon he'll count his money

While the south Bronx slowly burns

Get out for the children

Get your ass and run

Get out of this stinkin mess

To a safe suburban slum

I live in the city

I breathe dirty air

I ride trains with b-boys

junkies, queens and squares

It must be your skin that I'm sinking in

It must be for real cuz now I can feel

And I didn't mind

It's not my time not my time to wonder why

Everything's goin' white

Everything's gray

Now you're here Now you're away

I don't want this

Remember that

I'll never forget where you're at

CHORUS

Don't let the days go by

Glycerine Glycerine

I'm never alone

I'm alone all the time

Are you at one, or do you lie

We live in a wheel where everyone steals

But when we rise it's like strawberry fields

I treated you bad, you bruised my face

Couldn't love you more you gotta beautiful taste

Chorus

Don't let the days go by

Glycerine Glycerine

Bad moon white again

Bad moon white again

As she falls around me

I needed you more when you wanted us less

could not kiss, just regress

It might just be clear simple and plain

Well that's just fine that's just one of my names

Don't let the days go bye......

Could've been easier on you you you

Glycerine, Glycerine, Glycerine, Glycerine

I feel like some Supertramp....

Supertramp - Give A Little Bit

Give a little bit

Give a little bit of your love to me

Give a little bit

I'll give a little bit of my love to you

There's so much that we need to share

Send a smile and show you care

I'll give a little bit

I'll give a little bit of my love to you

So give a little bit

Give a little bit of your time to me

See the man with the lonely eyes

Take his hand, you'll be surprised

Give a little bit

Give a little bit of your love to me

I'll give a little bit of my love for you

Now's the time that we need to share

So find yourself, we're on our way back home

Going home

Don't you need to feel at home?

Oh yeah, we gotta sing

SO TIRED - Ozzy Osbourne

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5P4uir-GSVg

Time has come to say goodbye

I know it's gonna make you cry

But you belong to another my love

And half a love that just isn't enough

I am so tired

And I just can't wait around for you

I am so tired

And I always thought we would see it through

I've waited all this time for you

Believed your promises were true

I keep believing that you mean what you say

You'll leave tomorrow, now tomorrow's today

crowley%20adoration.gif

And I often sit and wonder why

You're not with me tonight

I stayed at home remaining true

While you were out with you know who

I am so tired

And I just can't wait around for you

I am so tired

And I always thought we would see it through.

Wasn't Crowley a bad man?

Why do you wish to align yourself with willful ignorance?

- S

Dear Shaktiananda,

Perhaps "Wickedest Man In The World"

Perhaps "Great Wild Beast 666"

But just simply calling me "Bad" is a slight understatement.

Be gone!

Your Little Sunshine,

~ 777

Lest our banter dissapoints the regulars ...

The Song

Dance a measure

....Of the tiniest whirls!

Shake out your treasure

....Of cinnamon curls!

Tremble with pleasure

....O wonder of girls!

Ignorance is bliss,

....And bliss is rest,

Give me a kiss

....If you love me best!

Hold me like this

....With my hand on your breast!

Be With You-Bobaflex

You should have never walked away

but now you're comin round again

Manipulate and suck me in

but we could never wash away the sin

I wish I never seen your face

but when I lie away in bed

My appetite is never fed

and I can't seem to get you outta my head

And what it was you said

I know you made a big mistake

I am the only one that's gonna be with you

Those things you say to me

I am the only one to break your heart

This ain't the time this ain't the place

for bring back old memories

You got your down and on your knees

beggin please and pushin back on me

I wish I'd never seen your face

but when I lie awake in bed

My appetite is never fed

and I can't seem to get you outta my head

And what it was you said

I am the only one whose gonna be with you

Those things you say to me

I am the only one to break your heart

Midnight Confessions-The Grass Roots

The sound of your footsteps

Telling me that you're near

Your soft gentle motion, baby

Brings out the need in me that no-one can hear, except

In my midnight confessions

When I tell all the world that I love you

In my midnight confessions

When I say all the things that I want to

I love you

But a little gold ring you wear on your hand makes me understand

There's another before me, you'll never be mine

I'm wasting my time

Staggering through the daytime

Your image on my mind

Passing so close beside you baby

Sometimes the feelings are so hard to hide, except

In my midnight confessions

When I tell all the world that I love you

In my midnight confessions

When I say all the things that I want to

I love you

But a little gold ring you wear on your hand makes me understand

There's another before me, you'll never be mine

I'm wasting my time

In my midnight confessions

When I tell all the world that I love you

Na na-na na na na na-na

Poor House - The Traveling Wilburys

You walk in, half past nine

Lookin' like a queen

Serving me with papers

Calling me obscene

Woman I've tried so hard

Just to do my best

They're gonna put me in the poor house

And you'll take all the rest

Up all day, down all night

Working on the job

Everything I do is wrong

I always end up right

Woman I try so hard

Done all I can do

They're gonna put me in the poor house

Keep all the best for you.

Ooh, in the poor house

Ooh, in the poor house

If a drove a pulpwood truck

Would you love me more?

Will you bring me diamonds

And hang around my door

Woman, I've done my best

They're ain't much left for me

They're gonna put me in the poor house

And throw away the key

(In the poor house)

Ooh, in the poor house

You walked in, half past nine

Lookin' like a queen

Serving me with papers

Calling me obscene

Woman I've tried so hard

Just to do my best

They're gonna put me in the poor house

And you'll take all the rest

In the poor house

Ooh, in the poor house

In the poor house

Ooh, in the poor house

ELVIS PRESLEY - (You're The) Devil In Disguise

You look like an angel

Walk like an angel

Talk like an angel

But I got wise

You're the devil in disguise

Oh yes you are

The devil in disguise

You fooled me with your kisses

You cheated and you schemed

Heaven knows how you lied to me

You're not the way you seemed

You look like an angel

Walk like an angel

Talk like an angel

But I got wise

You're the devil in disguise

Oh yes you are

The devil in disguise

I thought that I was in heaven

But I was sure surprised

Heaven help me, I didn't see

The devil in your eyes

You look like an angel

Walk like an angel

Talk like an angel

But I got wise

You're the devil in disguise

Oh yes you are

The devil in disguise

You're the devil in disguise

Oh yes you are

The devil in disguise

Oh yes you are

The devil in disguise

I caught you knockin'

at my cellar door

I love you, baby,

can I have some more

Ooh, ooh, the damage done.

I hit the city and

I lost my band

I watched the needle

take another man

Gone, gone, the damage done.

I sing the song

because I love the man

I know that some

of you don't understand

Milk-blood

to keep from running out.

I've seen the needle

and the damage done

A little part of it in everyone

But every junkie's

like a settin' sun.

Now look what you done

Now look what you done

Now look what you done

Now look what you done

You left me here

The lonely one

And all I can say

Is look what you done

A broken heart

A worried mind

A thought of you darlin

baby all the time

I once had a dream

But now I have none

You're taking your love

And see what it done

The night bird cries

The shadow falls

Gloomy memories

And I recall

Your love is my life

As warm as the sun

And now it is gone

But see what you done

I saw you last night

Out moving around

With your new toys

painting the town

But it is okay

Keep having your fun

Because some day

You'll pay for all you done

Night Time-George Thoroghgood

Well I get up in the morning

Kick the covers from my bed

The sunlight in my eyes

Playin' tricks on my head

I work like a dog

On the job every day

Tryin' to make some money

So I can go and play

In the night time

Oh that's the right time

I say the night time

That's the right time

I wanna be with you

In the night time

Well I come home from work

You know I'm tired of the beat

I try to make some supper

Get myself something to eat

I jump in the shower

Wash the world off my back

I'm gonna get you baby

That's a natural fact

In the night time

Oh that's the right time

I say the night time

That's the right time

I wanna be with you

In the night time

Ah come here baby

Got your radio turned down too low

Turn it up so you can hear what I'm saying baby

Now you got me turned on baby

Well eight hundred million people

With nothing to say

They run around in circles

They just living the day

Stick with me baby

I'll show you how to fly

We'll make some pretty music

Watch the world go by

In the night time

Oh that's the right time

I say the night time

That's the right time

I wanna be with you

In the night time

I Believe---Joe Satriani

I've been out walking for hours.

I've got something on my mind.

How did we get here? Where are we going?

And why is life so hard?

I read the stories, see the photographs.

World's in a crazy space.

I've got to hold on to my dreams;

There's just no other place.

There's just no other place.

CHORUS:

I believe

We can change anything.

I believe

We can rise above this.

I believe

There's a reason for everything.

I believe

In my dream.

I've seen the shadows of the living.

Seen them turn and walk away.

And I keep searching for the right words

To send these thoughts away.

There's a picture I like to look at,

A picture of a beautiful face.

And I see something in her eyes,

Sends me to a better place.

Sends me to a better place.

CHORUS

I believe

We can change anything.

I believe

In my dream

Greatest song in the history of the world...the credit song to Portal

This was a triumph.

I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS.

It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.

Aperture Science

We do what we must

because we can.

For the good of all of us.

Except the ones who are dead.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.

You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

And the Science gets done.

And you make a neat gun.

For the people who are still alive.

I'm not even angry.

I'm being so sincere right now.

Even though you broke my heart.

And killed me.

And tore me to pieces.

And threw every piece into a fire.

As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you!

Now these points of data make a beautiful line.

And we're out of beta.

We're releasing on time.

So I'm GLaD. I got burned.

Think of all the things we learned

for the people who are still alive.

Go ahead and leave me.

I think I prefer to stay inside.

Maybe you'll find someone else to help you.

Maybe Black Mesa

THAT WAS A JOKE.

HAHA. FAT CHANCE.

Anyway, this cake is great.

It's so delicious and moist.

Look at me still talking

when there's Science to do.

When I look out there, it makes me GLaD I'm not you.

I've experiments to run.

There is research to be done.

On the people who are still alive.

And believe me I am still alive.

I'm doing Science and I'm still alive.

I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive.

While you're dying I'll be still alive.

And when you're dead I will be still alive.

STILL ALIVE

Golden Earring-Twilight Zone

(somewhere in a lonely hotel room,

There's a guy starting to realize

That eternal fate has turned its back on him,

It's two a.m...........)

It's two a.m., the fear has gone

I'm sittin' here waitin', the gun still warm

Maybe my connection is tired of takin' chances

Yeah there's a storm on the loose, sirens in my head

I'm wrapped up in silence, all circuits are dead

I cannot decode, my whole life spins into a frenzy

Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone

The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned

My beacon's been moved under moon and star

Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far

Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone

The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned

My beacon's been moved under moon and star

Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far

Soon you will come to know,

When the bullet hits the bone

Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone

I'm falling down a spiral, destination unknown

A double-crossed messenger, all alone

I can't get no connection, can't get through, where are you

Well the night weighs heavy on his guilty mind

This far from the borderline

And when the hit man comes

He knows damn well he has been cheated

Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone

The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned

My beacon's been moved under moon and star

Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far

Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone

The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned

My beacon's been moved under moon and star

Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far

Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone

Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone
