Favorite Song Lyrics

Buffalo Springfield

For What It's Worth

There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

What a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our side
It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away
We better stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

Stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, now, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
 
Do the evolution
by Pearl Jam

my all time favorite music video
YouTube - DO THE EVOLUTION

I'm ahead, I'm a man,
I'm the first mammal to wear pants, yeah,
I'm at peace, with my lust,
I can kill 'cause in God I trust, yeah,

It's evolution, baby.

I'm a beast, I'm the man,
I'm the stocks on the day of the crash, yeah,
On the loose, I'm a truck,
All the rolling hills, I'll flatten them out, yeah,

It's herd behavior.
It's evolution, baby.

Admire me.
Admire my home.
Admire my son, he's my clone.
(Yea, Yea)
This land is mine, this land is free.
I'll do what I want but irresponsibly.

It's evolution, baby.

I'm a thief, I'm a liar,
There's my church, I sing in the choir.

(Hallelujah, Hallelujah)

Admire me.
Admire my home.
Admire my son.
Admire my cult.

'Cause we know,
Appetite, for a nightly feast,
Those ignorant Indians got nothing on me.
Nothin', why? Because...

It's evolution, baby.

I am ahead.
I am advanced.
I am the first mammal to make plans, yeah,
I crawled the earth, but now I'm higher,
2010, watch it go to fire.

It's evolution, baby.
It's evolution, baby.
Do The Evolution!

Come on!

(C'mon, C'mon!)
 
Yeah, that's a great, raw song. First time I've seen the video.

Apocalypse Now?

Here's another good one:

Operation Ivy
Here We Go Again

It's not the ending
Its the beginning
The ground is moist and it rained last night
Smells like smoke and it smells so clean
The sun is shining down like a freindly white light
Here we go again

Analyzed the world I was born into but I could never understand
Knew I never wanted to grow up if that meant being a "man"
Dominating strict competition is the meaning of our lives
Stomping on the weak keeps us the winner of the battle in our minds

Tensions in our lives that are attacking our minds
Unite themselves together to make our conciousness blind
Conditioned to self-interest with emotions locked away
If that's what they call normal i'd rather be insane

Relax yourself from giving what you want to do with your life
Ease up from giving up things like control of yr own mind
If you never ask any question then you're never gonna get no answer
Always be wondering what do you want while you keep getting older faster
Here we go again

Another test of manhood
Here we go again
just when you thought youd won
Here we go again
The more we keep competing
Here we go again
The more the battle has just begun

What the World Need Now is Love

Original lyrics by Hal David,
music composed by Burt Bacharach.

What the world needs now
is love, sweet love
it's the only thing
that there's just too little of
What the world needs now
is love, sweet love,
no not just for some
but for everyone. Lord, we don't need
another mountain,
there are mountains
and hillsides enough to climb
There are oceans
and rivers enough to cross,
enough to last
'til the end of time.

What the world needs now
is love, sweet love
it's the only thing
that there's just too little of
What the world needs now
is love, sweet love,
no, not just for some
but for everyone.
Lord, we don't need
another meadow
there are cornfields
and wheat fields enough to grow
There are sunbeams
and moonbeams enough to shine
oh listen, lord,
if you want to know.
What the world needs now
is love, sweet love
it's the only thing
that there's just too little of
What the world needs now
is love, sweet love,
no, not just for some
but for everyone.
No, not just for some,
oh, but just for everyone.
 
just between us........ I used to love the song, by Cheap Trick.."If you want my love, you got it........" ( yeah, I know its a bit of a desperation song, but I still like it)
 
White Lion - You're all I need.​

I know that she's waiting
For me to say forever
I know that I sometimes
Just don't know how to tell her
I want to hold and kiss her

Give her my love
Make her believe
She doesn't know
She doesn't know

You're all I need beside me girl
You're all I need to turn my world
You're all I want inside my heart
You're all I need when we're apart
You're all that I need
Yeah...

I know that she's always
There when I need her loving
I know that I've never
Told her how much I love her
I see her face before me
I look in her eyes
Wondering why
She doesn't know
She doesn't know
She doesn't know

You're all I need beside me girl
You're all I need to turn my world
You're all I want inside my heart
You're all I need when we're apart

Say, say that you'll be there
Whenever I reach out
To feel your hand in mine
Stay, stay within my heart
Whenever I'm alone
I'll know that you are there
ooohhhh....

You're all I need beside me girl
You're all I need to turn my world
You're all I want inside my heart
You're all I need when we're apart

You're all I need beside me girl
(All that I need)
All I need to turn my world
(All that I want to do)
You're all I want inside my heart
(I need you baby)
All I need when we're apart

All that I need
Is for you to believe
All that I need
Is you
 
This song you have to listen to it, to hear it....

It has no lyrics of importance.... Every note, every key are the important lyrics... It mixes and blends so well two styles that collide in mass explosion yet scatter in harmony lol.... There are no words, as there are NO words to describe, to compare to this.

The Planets - Contradanza.....

Hear it...
 
(and on not such a deep thought lol....)

Special D - Come with me!

5...4...3...2...1...

At the end of every week each one of us becomes a freak.
Tonight the DJ makes us move under the sweat drops from the roof.
Each time you let the bass beat hard to know we all spend now apart.
Just activate your energy lets sing the song and come with me.

At the end of every week each one of us becomes a freak.
Tonight the DJ makes us move under the sweat drops from the roof.
Each time you let the bass beat hard to know we all spend now apart.
Just activate your energy lets sing the song and come with me.

The speaker system brings the sound,
And light effects are spinning round
All the people on the floor they shake their bodies cry for more.
Never let this feeling go and let the music take control.
Forget your problems and be free,
Enjoy this moment, come with me!

Turn it up!

AC/DC - Big Balls Lyrics

I'm upper, upper class high society
God's gift to ballroom notoriety
And I always fill my ballroom
The event is never small
the social papers say I've got the biggest balls of all

CHORUS
I've got big balls
I've got big balls
And they're such big balls
fancy big balls
And he's got big balls,
And she's got big balls,
But we've got the biggest balls of them all!

And my balls are always bouncing
My ballroom always full
And everybody comes and comes again
If your name is on the guest list
No one can take you higher
Everybody says I've got great balls of fire!

CHORUS

Some balls are held for charity
And some for fancy dress
But when they're held for pleasure,
They're the balls that I like best.
And my balls are always bouncing,
To the left and to the right.
It's my belief that my big balls should be held every night.

CHORUS

And I'm just itching to tell you about them
Oh, we have such wonderful fun
Seafood cocktail
Crabs
Crayfish​

The Verve... Now the drugs don't work..

All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm comin' down

And I hope you're thinking of me
As you lay down on your side
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

But I know I'm on a losing streak
'Cause I passed down my old street
And if you wanna show, then just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again

Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
Just like you said, you leave my life, I'm better off dead

All this talk of getting old

No more, no more, no more, no more, no more

I was asked what 'Con te partiro' means in English, bascially it is 'I will go with you.' :)

It is from this amazing song.....

YouTube - CON TE PARTIRÃ’

These are the lyrics....

Quando sono solo
Sogno allorizzonte
E mancan le parole
Si lo so che non c? luce
In una stanza
Quando manca il sole
Se non ci sei tu con me, con me.
Su le finestre
Mostra a tutti il mio cuore
Che hai acceso
Chiudi dentro me
La luce che
Hai incontrato per strada

Time to say goodbye
Paesi che non ho mai
Veduto e vissuto con te
Adesso si li vivro.
Con te partiro
Su navi per mari
Che io lo so
No no non esistono piu
Its time to say goodbye.

Quando sei lontana
Sogno allorizzonte
E mancan le parole
E io si lo so
Che sei con me con me
Tu mia luna tu sei qui con me
Mio sole tu sei qui con me
Con me con me con me

Time to say goodbye
Paesi che non ho mai
Veduto e vissuto con te
Adesso si li vivro.
Con te partiro
Su navi per mari
Che io lo so
No no non esistono piu
Con te io li rivivro.
Con te partiro
Su navi per mari
Che io lo so
No no non esistono piu
Con te io li rivivro.
Con te partiro
Io con te.

Time to say goodbye

And taking the passion out of it and adding understanding here it is roughly in English.

When Im alone
I dream on the horizon
And words fail;
Yes, I know there is no light
In a room
Where the sun is not there
If you are not with me.
At the windows
Show everyone my heart
Which you set alight;
Enclose within me
The light you
Encountered on the street.

Time to say goodbye,
To countries I never
Saw and shared with you,
Now, yes, I shall experience them,
Ill go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer;
With you I shall experience them.

When you are far away
I dream on the horizon
And words fail,
And yes, I know
That you are with me;
You, my moon, are here with me,
My sun, you are here with me.
With me, with me, with me,

Time to say goodbye,
To countries I never
Saw and shared with you,
Now, yes, I shall experience them,
Ill go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer;
With you I shall re-experience them.
Ill go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer;
With you I shall re-experience them.
Ill go with you,
I with you.

Brother Love’s Travelling Salvation Show
-performed (and written?) by Neil Diamond

Hot August night and the leaves hanging down
and the grass on the ground smellin' sweet
Move up the road to the outside of town
and the sound of that good gospel beat
Sits a ragged tent where there ain't no trees
And that gospel group tellin' you and me
It's Love Brother Love say Brother Love's traveling salvation show
Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies and everyone goes
'Cause everyone knows Brother Love's show
Room gets suddenly still and when you'd almost bet
You could hear yourself sweat he walks in
Eyes black as coal and when he lifts his face
Every ear in the place is on him
Startin' soft and slow like a small earthquake
And when he lets go half the valley shakes
It's Love, Brother Love say Brother Loves traveling salvation show
Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies and everyone goes
'Cause everyone knows 'bout Brother Loves show
(Halleluja) Brothers (Halle, halleluja) I say brothers
Now you got yourself two good hands
And when your brother is troubled you've gotta
reach out your hand for him 'cause that's what it's there for
And when your heart is troubled you've gotta reach out
your other hand, reach it out to the Man up there
'Cause that's what He's there for
Take my hand in yours
Walk with me this day
In my heart I know
I will never stray
Halle, halle, halle, halle, halle, halle, halle, halle
Love Brother Love say Brother Love's traveling salvation show
Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies and everyone goes
I say Love Brother Love say Brother Love's traveling salvation show
Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies and everyone goes

Stairway to Heaven
-Jimmy Page, Robert Plant
performed by Led Zeppelin


Theres a lady whos sure
All that glitters is gold
And shes buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and shes buying a stairway to heaven.

Theres a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
Theres a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.

Theres a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And its whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.

If theres a bustle in your hedgerow
Dont be alarmed now,
Its just a spring clean for the may queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
Theres still time to change the road youre on.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it wont go
In case you dont know,
The pipers calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How evrything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.

And shes buying a stairway to heaven.​
 
Fool’s Overture
-Rick Davies, Roger Hodgeson
performed by Supertramp


History recalls how great the fall can be
While everybodys sleeping, the boats put out to sea
Borne on the wings of time
It seemed the answers were so easy to find
Too late, the prophets cry
The islands sinking, lets take to the sky

Called the man a fool, striped him of his pride
Everyone was laughing up until the day he died
And though the wound went deep
Still hes calling us out of our sleep
My friends, were not alone
He waits in silence to lead us all home

So tell me that you find it hard to grow
Well I know, I know, I know
And you tell me that youve many seeds to sow
Well I know, I know, I know

Can you hear what Im saying
Can you see the parts that Im playing
Holy man, rocker man, come on queenie,
Joker man, spider man, blue eyed meanie
So you found your solution
What will be your last contribution?
Live it up, rip it up, why so lazy?
Give it out, dish it out, lets go crazy,
Yeah!

A Soapbox Opera
-Rick Davies, Roger Hodgeson
performed by Supertramp


I want to tell you something;
Listen to me,
I'm trying to say, I'm better than you,
I am only what I am

We must not stand still,
For the night is coming,
Every man, every woman and child,
Everybody help me

I hear, only what I want to hear,
But, I have to believe in something,
Have to believe in just one thing.
I said father washington, you're all mixed up,
Collecting sinners in an old tin cup.
Well, spare a listen for a restless fool,
There's something missing when I need your rule.

Well, hey there;
You tell me you're a holy man,
but, although I am just a beginner,
I don't see you as a winner.
I said, sister robinson, you're all washed up,
Collecting teardrops in a paper cup;
If I could tell you what you need to know;
If I could tell you to get on with the show.

I'd rather never leave her,
There's a storm in my head,
Makes me hear what you say;
Just was it true?
So, what have I to do?
-well, what has he to do? -
+oh, what is there to-oo do+
What oh-oh-ohoh

All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful, the Lord God made them all

Mary, oh tell me what I'm living for,
'cause I feel like I'm tossed in the river,
Oh have you a son to deliver.

I said, father washington, you're all mixed up,
Collecting sinners in an old tin cup,
You tell the children what they need to know,
But, will they listen when its time to go?

Oh, sister robinson, you're all washed up,
Collecting teardrops in a paper cup,
Can someone tell me what I need to know,
Can someone help me to get on with the show.

Child of Vision
-Rick Davies, Roger Hodgeson
performed by Supertramp

Well, who do you think you`re foolin`?
You say you`re havin` fun,
But you`re busy going nowhere,
Just lyin` in the sun.

You tried to be a hero,
commit the perfect crime
but the dollar got you dancing
and you`re running out of time.

You`re messin`up the water
You`re rollin`in the wine
You`re poisoning your body
You`re poisoning your mind
You gave me Coca-Cola
You said it tasted good
You watch the television
It tells you that you should

How can you live in this way ?
-(Why do you think it`s so strange ?)
You must have something to say
-(Tell me why I should change ?)
There must be more than this life.
It`s time we did something right.

Child of Vision, won`t you listen
Find yourself a new ambition.

I`ve heard it all before
You`re saying nothing new
I thought I saw a rainbow
but I guess it wasn`t true
You cannot make me listen
I cannot make you hear
You find your way to heaven
I`ll meet you when you`re there.

How can you live in this way?
-(Why do you think it`s so strange ?)
You must have something to say
-(Tell me why I should change)
We have no reason to fight
cos we both know that we`re right

Child of Vision, won`t you listen
Find yourself a new ambition.

C’est le bon
-Rick Davies, Roger Hodgeson
performed by Supertrramp

I never knew what a man was supposed to be
I never wanted the responsibility
I still remember what they tried to make of me
They used to wonder what they couldn’t get through to me,
cause all that I had was this music
A-coming to me
And all that I had was this rhythm
A-running through me.

I took a tip from the man in the ministry
He said, my son, better work in the factory
Well there were days I can tell you quite honestly
I saw myself winding up in the military
So lucky to have all this music
A-coming to me
I’m lucky to have all this rhythm
A-running through me
I’m watching the movie go down
Around, about me
I’m watching the merry-go-round
Go down about me.

I said, lovers, you’re needed in the garden
cause there’s a lot of crazy people
Who’ve forgotten where their heart is
And they don’t give a damn
About hurting those flowers and those trees.
C’est le bon, sailing on and on...

Sometimes I wonder where my life is taking me
Sometimes I wonder what they all expect of me
Well there were days I can tell you quite honestly
I saw myself winding up in the monastery

cause all that I have is this music
A-coming to me
And all that I have is this rhythm
A-running through me
I’m watching the movie go down
Around, about me
I’m watching the merry-go-round
Go down about me.

I said, lovers, you’re needed in the garden
cause there’s a lot of crazy people
Who’ve forgotten where their heart is
And they don’t give a damn
About hurting that small child in me.
C’est le bon, sailing on and on...​
 
Walls
-Roger Hodgeson, performed by Yes

Don’t you know its my way out
To be on my own
When I feel like crying out
I do it best alone
Can you give me love and protection
To shield my heart
All the fear I feel from doubt
Is tearing me apart

Chorus
I wanna love, I wanna give
I want to find another way to live
Another shout, another cry
And the walls come tumbling down

Don’t you know there’s no way out
Your pain’s your own
And the more we scream and shout
The more we feel alone
I can feel my anger rising
Am I to blame?
And I’m not gonna keep it inside me
Do you feel the same?

Chorus

And I’m calling you​
