Punk Rock Girls

Leather jackets, stupid boyfriends,
Poor report cards, life is just a ball
Hi- top Chucks and bubblegum and oh my gosh
I'd love to love them all

They're so cool their style is never cramped
Too much of everything and everyone is amped
Well, don't get hot and bothered
Listen, I know I got problems
I also know just what this goofy world needs

Yummy yummy punk rock girls
Yummy yummy punk rock girls
Yummy yummy punk rock girls
Yummy yummy punk rock girls
I wish they all were punk rock girls

The smartest of the smartest and the sweetest of
The sweetest, they're the most
Me and Dr. Frank have both decided that we love
Them more than toast

I wish they'd let me share their bubblegum
And let me hang with them and life would be so fun
I should be sedated cuz my heart is all inflated
I guess I gotta get me one or two

Yummy yummy punk rock girls
Yummy yummy punk rock girls
Yummy yummy punk rock girls
Yummy yummy punk rock girls
I wish they all were punk rock girls

I don't know where I'm going
But I know just where I'd like to be
With my punk rock girlfriend kissing me

Let's go!

They're so cool their style is never cramped
Too much of everything and everyone is amped
Well, don't get hot and bothered
Listen, I know I got problems
I also know just what this goofy world needs

Yummy yummy punk rock girls
Yummy yummy punk rock girls
Yummy yummy punk rock girls
Yummy yummy punk rock girls
I wish they all were punk rock girls

Cha cha cha!!

Of Wolf And Man

Off through the new day's mist I run
Out from the new day's mist I have come
I hunt
Therefore I am
Harvest the land
Taking of the fallen lamb

Off through the new day's mist I run
Out from the new day's mist I have come
We shift
Pulsing with the earth
Company we keep
Roaming the land while you sleep

(shape shift) Nose to the wind
(shape shift) Feeling I've been
(move swift) All senses clean
(earth's gift) Back to the meaning, Back to the meaning of... Life

Bright is the moon high in starlight
Chill in the air cold as steel tonight
We shift
Call of the wild
Fear in your eyes
It's later than you realized

(shape shift) Nose to the wind
(shape shift) Feeling I've been
(move swift) All senses clean
(earth's gift) Back to the meaning, Back to the meaning of...Life

I feel a change
Back to a better day
(shape shift)
Hair stands on the back of my neck
(shape shift)
In wildness is the preservation of the world

So seek the wolf in thyself

(shape shift) Nose to the wind
(shape shift) Feeling I have been
(move swift) All senses clean
(earth's gift) Back to the meaning, back to the meaning of wolf and man

Such Great Heights

I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles
In our eyes are mirror images and when
We kiss they're perfectly aligned

And I have to speculate that God himself
Did make us into corresponding shapes like
Puzzle pieces from the clay

And true, it may seem like a stretch, but
It's thoughts like this that catch my troubled
Head when you're away when I am missing you to death

When you are out there on the road for
Several weeks of shows and when you scan
The radio, I hope this song will guide you home

They will see us waving from such great heights
'Come down now,' they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
'Come down now,' but we'll stay...

I tried my best to leave this all on your machine
but the persistent beat it sounded thin upon listening
And that frankly will not fly.
You will hear the shrillest highs and lowest lows with
The windows down when this is guiding you home

They will see us waving from such great heights
'Come down now,' they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
'Come down now,' but we'll stay...

They will see us waving from such great heights
'Come down now,' they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
'Come down now,' but we'll stay...

They will see us waving from such great heights
'Come down now,'
They will see us waving from such great heights
'Come down now,'

Solo Soy Una Persona

No tengo motores a reacción
Nunca he querido ser un avión
Y no tengo escamas en la piel
Entre otra cosas no soy un pez

Y no tengo asiento y no tengo ruedas
Porque no soy una moto
Estoy conformada en 3 dimensiones
Porque no soy una foto

No tengo bolas de cristal
No soy un árbol de navidad
Es apagado mi color
Porque tampoco soy una flor

Y no quiero andar por entre las cloacas
Porque no soy una rata
Ni ir a parar al cubo de basura
Porque no soy una lata

No soy ni hombre ni mujer
Solo soy una persona
Solo soy una persona
Solo soy una persona
Solo soy una persona

No tengo botones que apretar
Ni organigramas que programar
No tengo manillas ni hago ding-dong
Porque tampoco soy un reloj

Y no tengo mando para sintonías
Porque no soy una radio
Y no tengo sitio para mucha gente
Porque no soy un estadio

No soy ni hombre ni mujer
Solo soy una persona
Solo soy una persona
Solo soy una persona
Solo soy una persona

Epic

Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass

It's so cool, it's so hip, it's so right
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet

You want it all but you can't have it

It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it

You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it

It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad it happened and it's a shame

You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it

What is it?
IT'S IT!
What is it?
IT'S IT!
What is it?
IT'S IT!
What is it?
IT'S IT!

What is it?
IT'S IT!
What is it?
IT'S IT!
What is it?
IT'S IT!
What is it?

You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it

IT'S IT!
What is it?
IT'S IT!
What is it?
IT'S IT!
What is it?
IT'S IT!
What is it?...

I'm on Fire

Hey little girl is your daddy home
Did he go and leave you all alone
I got a bad desire
oooh I'm on fire

Tell me now baby is he good to you
Can he do to you the things that I do
I can take you higher
oooh I'm on fire

Sometimes it's like someone took a knife
baby edgy and dull
and cut a six inch valley
through the middle of my skull

At night I wake up with the sheets
soaking wet and
a freight train running
through the middle of my head -
only you can cool my desire

oooh I'm on fire......

Los Atacantes Del Amor

Rojo cielo, van a llegar
los atacantes del amor
a liberar las cárceles
de la luna
No, no sé por qué dijiste adiós
no, y no esperaste la invasión

Dejaste aquí tu Zeppelin, tu escafandra
o acaso es que te has vuelto invisible
para mí, sólo para mí
No, no sé por qué dijiste adiós
el cielo estaba entre los dos.

Fusilando la ternura están
asaltando las calles
pero quién, quién vio a mi amor
quién vio a mi amor

Si el tiempo fuera circular
yo empezaría a girar
hasta volvernos a encontrar
sin prisas, sin miedos.

Los atacantes del amor
bailan a mi alrededor
tengo que encontrar la pared
disparan al cuerpo.

Los atacantes del amor
bailan a mi alrededor
te empujan contra la pared
disparan al cuerpo.

Los atacantes del amor
bailan a mi alrededor
tengo que encontrar la pared
disparan al cuerpo...

Volvo-Driving Soccer Mom

Na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na

You know I used to be a bad girl
I got busy in the bathroom at my high school prom
Yeah I used to be a dancer at the local strip club
But now I know my right wing from my wrong

Yeah, yeah

I really used to be a bad girl
I had a threesome with my sister and her boyfriend Tom
I know I used to be a real wild child
But now I am a Volvo-driving soccer mom

Na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na

Volvo-driving soccer mom

I really used to be a bad girl
I got busted for possession of my wizard-shaped bong
I used to love to do the things they tell me not to do
But now I'm different--now I sing a new song

I really used to be a bad girl
I got gang-banged in the bathroom at my high school prom
Yes, I used to be a real wild child
But now I am a Volvo-driving soccer mom

Na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na

Volvo-driving soccer mom
Volvo-driving soccer mom
Volvo-driving soccer mom
Volvo-driving soccer mom

Where do all the porn stars go
When the lights go down?
I wonder where all the porn stars go
'Cause when you need one, they are never around

I think they moved out to the suburbs
And now they're blonde, bland, middle-class Republican wives
They all have blonde, bland, middle-class Republican children
Blonde, bland, middle-class Republican lives

Where do all the porn stars go
When the lights go down?
I think I know where all the porn stars go
They all become Volvo-driving soccer moms

Na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na

Volvo-driving soccer mom
Volvo-driving soccer mom
Volvo-driving soccer mom
Volvo-driving soccer mom

Volvo-driving soccer mom

Planes are landing
A never ending supply
No more narco

There's no law, no law anymore
I want to steal from the rich and
Give to the poor

Sparkling in the night

I took the law and threw it away
Cause there's nothing wrong
It's just for play
Theres no law, no law anymore
I want to steal from the rich and
Give to the poor

Winter turns to summer
Sadness turns to fun
Keep the faith, baby
You broke the rules and won

Sha-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la

Keep it glowing, glowing,glowing
I'm not hurting anyone
Keep it glowing, smoking, glowing
I'm howling at the moon

I took the law and threw it away
Cause there's nothing wrong
It's just for play
There's no law, no law anymore
I want to steal from the rich and
Give to the poor

Oh baby

Oh baby

I took the law and threw it away
Cause there's nothing wrong
It's just for play

Give to the poor

Yes, but how about very early Bee Gees????? To Love Somebody, Gotta Get a Message to you? The preacher taunted me and he smiled said come walk with me, Come walk one more mile. And for once in my life I'm alone. and I ain't got a dime there's no time for the phone.

I just gotta get a message to you Hold on Hold on
One more hour and my life will be through Hold on Hold on

When I was about 12? My Mom belonged to a record club...lol
I think it was maybe about 1970?
I opened the newest record and said What the heck is (Canned Heat)
I played the album and when I heard ( Going up the Country )
I called my buddies and said get over here you gotta hear this band.

"All I Really Want"

Do I stress you out
My sweater is on backwards and inside out
And you say how appropriate
I don't want to dissect everything today
I don't mean to pick you apart you see
But I can't help it
There I go jumping before the gunshot has gone off
Slap me with a splintered ruler
And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn't there already
If only I could hunt the hunter

And all I really want is some patience
A way to calm the angry voice
And all I really want is deliverance
Do I wear you out
You must wonder why I'm so relentless and all strung out
I'm consumed by the chill of solitary
I'm like Estella
I like to reel it in and then spit it out
I'm frustrated by your apathy
And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land
If only I could meet the Maker

And I am fascinated by the spiritual man
I am humbled by his humble nature
What I wouldn't give to find a soulmate
Someone else to catch this drift
And what I wouldn't give to meet a kindred
Enough about me, let's talk about you for a minute
Enough about you, let's talk about life for a while
The conflicts, the craziness and the sound of pretenses
Falling all around...all around
Why are you so petrified of silence
Here can you handle this?

Did you think about your bills, your ex, your deadlines
Or when you think you're gonna die
Or did you long for the next distraction
And all I need know is intellectual intercourse
A soul to dig the hole much deeper
And I have no concept of time other than it is flying
If only I could kill the killer

All I really want is some peace man
a place to find a common ground
And all I really want is a wavelength
All I really want is some comfort
A way to get my hands untied
And all I really want is some justice...

Secret Separation

We are passengers in time
Lost in motion, locked together
Day and night, by trick of light
I must take another journey
We must meet with other names
Mmm, we must meet with other names

You touched my heart so deeply
You rescued me now free me
Don't watch me cry just see me go
I'll take away the strongest feelings
You will ever know

There will be no more isolation
In our secret separation
You touched my heart so deeply
You rescued me , now free me

We are passengers in time
Lost in motion, locked together
Day and night, by trick of light
But I must take another journey
We must meet with other names
If you hold me you will hurt me
Be brave

There will be no more isolation
In our secret separation
You touched my heart so deeply
You rescued me , now free me

We are matching spark and flame
caught in endless repetition
Life for life we'll be the same
I must leave before you burn me
I am the stranger who deserts you
only to love you in another life

There will be no more isolation
In our secret separation
You touched my heart so deeply
You rescued me, now free me

I'll bear one precious scar
that only you will know
Passengers in time, free me

I'll bear one precious scar
that only you will know
Passengers in time, free me

I'll bear one precious scar
that only you will know
Passengers in time, free me

I'll bear one precious scar
that only you will know
Passengers in time, free me ...

Silly Thing

What you see, you can get
Nothing's free, nothing's said
Don't be fooled by the signs
Don't read in between the lines

What you're gonna say
What you're gonna do
Now you've missed out once again
But I thought you knew

Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Oh you silly thing
You really gone and done it now

Trouble here, trouble there
People stop just to stare
What's the use of wasting time
Just move on, leave 'em all behind

What you're gonna say
What you're gonna do
Now you've missed out once again
But I thought you knew

Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now

Can't you ever depend
On someone you call a friend
When you see them making eyes
You don't even ask 'em why
You don't even ask 'em why

Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now

Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now.

Ten O'clock Postman

Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter
Ten o'clock postman
Make me feel better
Been so many days
Since that I've met her
Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter
Bring me her letter

I'm walking all over the room
Wonder why I don't stop biting my nails
Why carry this feeling of doom
A couple more hours and I'll get the mail
I'll get the mail

Finding it so hard to eat
The toast and the eggs they just don't taste the same
Hearing a noise in the street
I run to the window and cry out in the vain

Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter
Ten o'clock postman
Make me feel better
Been so many days
Since that I've met her
Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter
Bring me her letter

Remembering that she said for sure
I'll write you the minute I'll get off the plane
Nothing
Not one single word
It must come this morning or I'll go insane
I'll go insane

Now it's been almost five days
Could she have sent it by air or by rail
I hear someone's comin' this way
This must be it yes it must be the mail

Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter
Ten o'clock postman
Make me feel better
Been so many days
Since that I've met her
Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter
Bring me her letter

Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter
Ten o'clock postman
Make me feel better
Been so many days
Since that I've met her
Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter

Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter
Ten o'clock postman
Make me feel better
Been so many days
Since that I've met her
Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter

Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter
Ten o'clock postman
Make me feel better
Been so many days
Since that I've met her
Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter ...

Been thinking of this song lately, guess because it's almost Valentines Day;
Be My Valentine
Today I'm thinking of the world we live in
all the love and hate floating around
all the time I felt so lost and hopeless
you stood by me never let me down
still I keep throwing up these walls
most of them I built with stones
you tear em down and bridge the distance
knowing we ain't here to be alone
so let your blue heart heart open wide
let's never leave our dreams behind
it would comfort and restore my pride
If you let me be your valentine
our differences are part of life
still love will pass the test of time
I want you every day and night
Girl won't you be my valentine
Be my valentine
Be my valentine
Be my valentine

Written by Nils Lofgren
song by Nils lofgren and Bruce Springstein

Old England lyrics
(Mike Scott)
man looks up on a yellow sky
and the rain turns to rust in his eye
rumours of his health are lies
old England is dying
his clothes are a dirty shade of blue
and his ancient shoes worn through
he steals from me and he lies to you
old England is dying
still he sings an empire song
still he keeps his navy strong
and he sticks his flag where it ill belongs
old England is dying
you're asking what makes me sigh now
what it is makes me shudder so well
I just freeze in the wind and I'm
numb from the pummelin of the snow

that falls from high in yellow skies
down on where the well loved flag of
England flies
where homes are warm and mothers sigh
where comedians laugh and babies cry
where criminals are televised politicians
fraternize
journalists are dignified and everyone is
civilized
and children stare with Heroin eyes
Old England!
evening has fallen
the swans are singing
the last of sunday's bells is ringing
the wind in the trees is sighing
and old England is dying

If We Kissed
Fiona Apple

Electricity, eye to eye.
Hey don't I know you? I can't speak.
Stripped my senses on the spot,
I've never been defenseless,
I can't even make sense of this.
You speak and I don't hear a word.

What would happen if we kissed?
Would your tongue slip past my lips?
Would you run away?
Would you stay?
Or would I melt into you?
Mouth to mouth, lust to lust,
Spontaneously combust

The room is spinning out of control.
You act like you didn't notice, brushed my hand.
Forbidden fruit, ring on my finger.
You're such a moral mortal man.
Would you throw it away? No question.
Will I pretend I'm innocent?

What would happen if we kissed?
Would your tongue slip past my lips?
Would you run away?
Would you stay?
Or would I melt into you?
Mouth to mouth, lust to lust,
Spontaneously combust
What would happen if we kissed?

Ahhhh...
Oh
Ahhhh...

I struggle with myself again
Quickly the wall, I'm crumbling
Don't know if I can turn away

What would happen if we kissed?
Would your tongue slip past my lips?
Would you run away?
Would you stay?
Or would I melt into you?
Mouth to mouth.
If we kissed,
Would your tongue slip past my lips?
Would you run away?
Would you stay?
Or would I melt into you?
Mouth to mouth.
If we kissed.
Oehh-oh
If we kissed.
Oehh-oh...

Never Is A Promise
Fiona Apple

You'll never see the courage I know
Its colors' richness won't appear within your view
I'll never glow - the way that you glow
Your presence dominates the judgements made on you

But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights
The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
My feelings swell and stretch; I see from greater heights
I understand what I am still too proud to mention - to you

You'll say you understand, but You don't understand
You'll say you'd never give up seeing eye to eye
But never is a promise, and you can't afford to lie

You'll never touch - these things that I hold
The skin of my emotions lies beneath my own
You'll never feel the heat of this soul
My fever burns me deeper than I've ever shown - to you

You'll say, Don't fear your dreams, it's easier than it seems
You'll say you'd never let me fall from hopes so high
But never is a promise and you can't afford to lie

You'll never live the life that I live
I'll never live the life that wakes me in the night
You'll never hear the message I give
You'll say it looks as though I might give up this fight

But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights
The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
My feelings swell and stretch, I see from greater heights
I realize what I am now too smart to mention - to you

You'll say you understand, you'll never understand
I'll say I'll never wake up knowing how or why
I don't know what to believe in, you don't know who I am
You'll say I need appeasing when I start to cry
But never is a promise and I'll never need a lie
