I'm not in love
So don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because
I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made
I'm not in love, no no, it's because..

I like to see you
But then again
That doesn't mean you mean that much to me
So if I call you
Don't make a fuss
Don't tell your friends about the two of us
I'm not in love, no no, it's because..

I keep your picture
Upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain that's lying there
So don't you ask me
To give it back
I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me
I'm not in love, no no, it's because..

Ooh you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh you'll wait a long time
Ooh you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh you'll wait a long time

I'm not in love
So don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made
I'm not in love
I'm not in love

Tatouage Bleu (Avec chet)

si elle le suit, il la fuit
si elle le fuit, il la suit
c'est ainsi, c'est inscrit
fait d'amour et de cris

je n'essaie pas de dire que j'avais raison
je n'admettrai pas que j'avais tort
tu cherches a me fuir, a tort ou a raison
je t'aime encore

les sangs se glacent, mais la peur y est
c'est la meme menace, jamais la pensée

et ce tatouage bleu témoigne de nos amours
et ce tatouage bleu est sur nos coeurs pour toujours
nous sommes liés a jamais
nous sommes liés a jamais

séparation des biens, mais résistance des corps
pourtant moi je sais bien qui s'aime encore

a quoi bon te retenir au sein de nos prisons
puisque j'irai la ou te conduit le sort
tu cherches a me fuir, a tort ou a raison
je t'aime encore

le feu résiste, les souvenirs aussi
cette exquise esquisse lie a jamais nos vies

et ce tatouage bleu témoigne de nos amours
et ce tatouage bleu est sur nos coeurs pour toujours

je t'ai donné ma vie, j'ai marché sur du verre
j'ai quitté mon pays pour ton univers

et ce tatouage bleu témoigne de nos amours
et ce tatouage bleu est sur nos corps pour toujours
et ce tatouage bleu témoigne de nos amours
nous sommes liés a jamais
nous sommes liés a jamais

quelque chose les lie, ça se lit dans leurs yeux
jusqu'a l'infini de leurs tatouages bleus

Shed My Skin

I am not alone
I live with the memories regret is my home
This is my true freedom
Express all the feelings of what I've become
I watch the rising sun
I hope I find some peace today

It seems I've gone away
It seems I've lost myself
It seems really lost my way
It seems I've lost myself
It seems I've
Shed my skin

Are you ready for me
Or purge my love
Are you ready for me
A bitter sinking feeling

Awake to the fact there's no going back
To the worlk in which I was living
I'm searching for something but found less than nothing
I watch the rising sun
I hope I find some peace today

It seems I've gone away
It seems I've lost myself
It seems really lost my way
It seems I've lost myself
It seems I've
Shed my skin

Are you ready for me
Or purge my love
Are you ready for me
Oh 'cause I'm dying to feel
What I have lost

Oh and what I was
All my life I've waited
Endless days have taken
Taken what made me free
Years have gone
I'm broken

Left the past unspoken
Those years
Oh they haunt me still
Shed my skin
Are you ready for me
Or purge my love
Are you ready for me
And shed my skin

In Due Time

Speak your mind
I just closed
Off my insides
Following, taking me
Where you're leading

I've come to see
This is me
What I need's
In front of me
Never to
To be free
Free from what you bring

Why do I follow
Letting you in front of me
To steal tomorrow, morrow
Yeah

Free my mind
In due time
I'll break this from me
Fear inside
I can't rewind
From the ending

I've come to see
This is me
What I need's
In front of me
Never to
To be free
Free from what you bring

Why do I follow
Letting you in front of me
To steal tomorrow

Why should I follow
Letting you overcome me
To steal tomorrow

Never to be free
Never to be free
Never to be me

Why do I follow
Letting you in front of me
To steal tomorrow

Why should I follow
Letting you overcome me
To steal tomorrow, morrow, morrow

Let me go
(never wanna be this, never wanna be this)
Let me go
(never wanna be this, never wanna be this)
Let me go
(never gonna be this, never gonna be this)
Let me go
(never gonna be this, never gonna be this)

Disposable Sunshine

Goodbye, lucid blue sky
Innocence is gone
Midnight, washes over
Everything I've known

Strange days coming over me now
I thought that I knew everything
Strange thoughts penetrate my halo
I'm listening to what they say

Staring in the face of a broken dream
I feel a chill rushing down my spine
Iâ??m closer to the edge than Iâ??ve ever been
And I want to see the other side

Goodbye, lucid blue sky
Innocence is gone
Midnight, washes over
Everything I've known
Disposable Sunshine

Strange days coming over me now
I thought that Iâ??d seen everything
Strange thoughts penetrate my halo
Iâ??ve sacrificed my purity

Staring in the face of a broken dream
I feel a chill rushing down my spine
Iâ??m closer to the edge than Iâ??ve ever been
And I want to see the other side

Goodbye, lucid blue sky
Innocence is gone
Midnight, washes over
Everything I've known
Disposable Sunshine

Goodbye, lucid blue sky
Innocence is gone
(Disposable Sunshine)
Midnight, washes over
Everything I've known
Disposable Sunshine

Disposable Sunshine
Goodbye, lucid blue sky
Innocence is gone
Midnight, washes over
Everything I've known
Disposable Sunshine

Goodbye, lucid blue sky
Innocence is gone
(Disposable Sunshine)
Midnight, washes over
Everything I've known

Opretá o Sny

Opretá o sny, klesá mi z nich hlava
Na zemi sa mi vždy lepšie zaspáva
Dlho som zamotaná v nekonečnej sieti
Kožu mám na popol, hoci tu len mesiac svieti

Dnes mám chuť byť zlá
Radšej ma nechaj ísť
Nebude náhoda
Ak začnem hrýzť

Už žiadne dotyky tečú mi z nich prsty
Všetko je priezračné len život je hustý
Vyzutá z minulosti film mi beží v hlave
Asi ma zase vystrihli, utopím sa v dave

Dnes mám chuť byť zlá
Radšej ma nechaj ísť
Niekde na horách
Spadol prvý list

Dnes mám chuť byť zlá
Radšej ma nechaj ísť
Nebude náhoda
Ak začnem hrýzť

Silence

The stone is falling down
The water is waiting for the crash
I want to hear the sound
Every sound is really so fresh

I'm staying near the lake
I'm amazed by the violence
It wants a little break
Can't accept this violent silence

And everywhere are..

Silent people in silent cars
Silent clouds on silent sky
Silent children sing silent rhymes
Silent people in silent cars
Silent birds catch silent flies

Z Každého Niečo

V tráve mi slnko vraví svoje žiale
Chcem prežiť ich s ním
Zistím aké sú šance malé
Do smiechu sa prevtelím
Ako motýľ lietam vo vašich hlavách
Je to fajn
Sadnem si vedľa lásky
Spýtam sa ako sa má

Z každého ostalo mi niečo krásne, niečo smutné
Niečo zvláštne nie je nutné si to overiť

Viem, že nie je ľahké zistiť
Koľko ešte máš tých fráz
Vieš to, že čas ti rýchlo letí
Vezme, odsype ti čas
Je mi fajn, tak už to nechaj
Hraj si ten svoj film
Ja si tým mojim cez teba
Svoj vlastný urobím

Z každého ostalo mi niečo krásne, niečo smutné
Niečo zvláštne nie je nutné si to overiť

Nerob mi ilúzie, že je všetko krásne
Vždy, keď ti uverím, tvoje kúzlo zhasne
V hlave len tvoje meno, ostatné je pasé
Celý svet na kope, no túžba v mojom hlase
Túžba v mojom hlase

Vody Sú Pomalé

Raz príde zvláštny dážď
Vymyje spomienky
Pohrá sa s každou jednou zvlášť
Rovnaké podmienky

Už plávajú tam v objatí
Moje sú ospalé a nikam nechcú
Táto nech sa nestratí
Vody sú pomalé
Vody sú pomalé

Raz padne zvláštny sneh
Až divný pocit z toho mám
Každý z nás nájde vlastný breh
Príčiny už nehľadám

Brehy, snehy, dažde, mláky, lásky
Dni bez hádky, slzy prázdne riadky
Slová, ktoré ti majú povedať
Že to chcem všetko zažiť znova
Nedá sa odolať

Raz príde zvláštny dážď
Pohrá sa s každou jednou zvlášť
Už plávajú tam v objatí
Táto nech sa nestratí
Vody sú pomalé
Vody sú pomalé

Weekend!

This one´s going out to everybody in the place
Sounds of the track - attacker
Go ahead!
Yes!
Here comes the chicks´ terminator
In control! Aahhh
On the mic I´m the teacher
Spread my words like a preacher
Cut the crap, get a slap
Drum and bass still on the map
On the mic you can´t stop me
Flat on your back like 1,2,3
Yeah, here we come!

Chorus:
Love in a woman´s heart
I wanna have the whole and not a part.
Strange that this feeling grows more and more
´cause I never loved someone like you before.

Alright!
Chorus: < >

Bass drum!
Chorus: < >

Yeah!
Alright crew, it´s weekend!
Yes, we are not the monkeys
But we´ve got the key
I´am the fast chatter
No one better than me
Yeah
On the mic I´m the teacher
Spread my words like a preacher
Cut the crap, get a slap
Drum and bass still on the map
On the mic I´m the voodoo
The destination is zulu
Here we come! Here we go!

Chorus: < >
What is essential is invisible to the eye
It´s only with the heart that you can see rightly
Yeah

Chorus: < >
Yeee-haa!
Respect to the man in the ice-cream van
Over and out

Babycakes

I just want you to know oh oh
That I think I'll have a go yeah yeahx6

Chorus
Babycakes
You just don't know, know
How I, I
How I like it down low
And I just want you to know
That I think our love will work,
We'll take this step by step
Because I'm not something you own x2

Confused don't know what I'm feeling
Confused relationships without meaning
In the mix I can see it gleaming
Time to wake up and stop the dreaming
Coz your my lil babycakes
And I know you got what it takes
The way you make me feel
The way that I am
And you talk to you friends
And you call me your man
And I am gonna tell you right now
That I appriciate it
Your the one for me
Your the real S**t
You was right there from the start
When I was lost you helped me find my mark
Tell her I gotta thank you bank you
Through the bad times, figure just me and you
With our fun time with our phones loaded
There's just one thing I want you to know

I just want you to know oh oh
That I think I'll have a go yeah yeahx4

Chorus x2

Lovin every minute
Just you and me
And I'm still dreaming
You'd be my baby
Maybe there's a possibility
We grow old together live happily
And your great
Bringing out the tiger in me
He says do i never need cursing me
Your the man for me
The one who thinks we likey like
If our eyes never met
And they say it's a song for everyone
At the first sight you know it's love
See the person and you can't be hostile
Coz you got butterflies in ya belly
That's why I a different diamond
Coz you can't help it feeling the affections
Sexual tention physical attractions
Instant flip flirtation actions

I just want you to know oh oh
That I think I'll have a go yeah yeahx4

Chorus x2

I I got to know x4

The way you look at me
Yeah you pull me closer
Our bodies together
Under the cover
Soft kisses
With ya hands all over
If I have to cry
Then ya cry on my shoulder
Can't get enough
When you loosen my neck
Goes down to my belly
Carress my breast
Worship your body
Like you were a godess
Your the man for me
Need something the best
Your the number one for me
And it's no contest
For any other man
Who got no intrest
Loving you
Whenever it's wrong or right
I'm thinking of you
Everyday and night
People don't get the wrong idea
It's about us they don't interfer
The way you look at me
Cakes gotta be
When your out
When your stood right next to me

I just want you to know oh oh
That I think I'll have a go yeah yeah x4

Chorus x2

What´s up

Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
And I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out
What's in my head
And I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what's going on?
ooh, ooh ooh
and I try, oh my god do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray, oh my god do I pray
I pray every single day
For a revolution
And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out
What's in my head
And I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what's going on?
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination

In Da Club

Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go shawty
It's your birthday
We gon' party like it's yo birthday
We gon' sip Bacardi like it's your birthday
And you know we don't give a fuck
It's not your birthday!

(2x)
You can find me in the club, bottle full of bub
Look mami I got the X if you into taking drugs
I'm into having sex, I ain't into making love
So come give me a hug if you into to getting rubbed

When I pull out up front, you see the Benz on dubs
When I roll 20 deep, it's 20 knives in the club
Niggas heard I fuck with Dre, now they wanna show me love
When you sell like Eminem, and the hoes they wanna fuck
But homie ain't nothing change hold down, G's up
I see Xzibit in the Cutt that nigga roll that weed up
If you watch how I move you'll mistake me for a playa or pimp
Been hit wit a few shells but I dont walk wit a limp
In the hood then the ladies saying "50 you hot"
They like me, I want them to love me like they love 'Pac
But holla in New York them niggas'll tell ya im loco
And the plan is to put the rap game in a choke hold
I'm feelin' focused man, my money on my mind
I got a mill out the deal and I'm still on the grind
Now shawty said she feeling my style, she feeling my flow
Her girlfriend wanna get bi and they ready to go

(2x)

My flow, my show brought me the doe
That bought me all my fancy things
My crib, my cars, my pools, my jewels
Look nigga I got K-Mart and I ain't change

And you should love it, way more then you hate it
Nigga you mad? I thought that you'd be happy I made it
I'm that cat by the bar toasting to the good life
You that faggot ass nigga trying to pull me back right?
When my junk get to pumpin in the club it's on
I wink my eye at ya bitch, if she smiles she gone
If the roof on fire, let the motherfucker burn
If you talking bout money homie, I ain't concerned
I'm a tell you what Banks told me cause go 'head switch the style up
If the niggas hate then let 'em hate
Watch the money pile up
Or we go upside there wit a bottle of bub
You know where we fucking be

(2x)

(laughing) Don't try to act like you ain't know where we been either nigga
In the club all the time nigga, if it's a problem pop off nigga
G-Unit

If I Can't

Yea, ha ha, yea, yea

If I can't do well, homey, it can't be done
Now I'ma let the champagne bottle pop
I'ma take it to the top
Fo sho I'ma make it hot, baby (baby)

I apply pressure to pussies that stuntin I pop
Stand alone squeezin my pistol I'm sure that I gotta
Now Peter Piper picked peppers and dont rock rhymes
I'm 50 Cent, I write a lil bit but I pop nines
Tell niggaz, "Get they money right," cuz I got mine
And I'm around quit playin nigga you can't shine
You gon be that next chump to end up in the trunk
After bein hit by the pump, is that whut you want?
Be easy nigga, I'll lay your ass out
Believe me nigga, thats whut I'm about, gangsta
You could find a nigga sittin on chrome
Hit the clutch, hit the gear, hit the gas & I'm gone (Yea!)

If I can't do well, homey, it can't be done
Now I'ma let the champagne bottle pop
I'ma take it to the top
Fo sho I'ma make it hot, baby (baby)

I'm down for the action, he smart with his mouth so smack em
You holdin a strap, he might come back so clap em
React like a gangsta, die like a gangsta for actin
Cuz you'll get hit & homicide'll be askin, "Whut happened?"
OH NO look who clapped em with the FO'FO'
20 inch rims sittin CHRO-CHROME
Eastside, Westside niggaz OH NO, NO GO
Even my mama said, "Something really wrong with my brain"
Niggaz don't rob me they know I'm down to die for my chain
G-UNIT! We get it poppin in the hood
G-UNIT! Muthafucka whuts good?
I'm waitin on niggaz to act like they dont know how to act
I had a sip of too much Jack, I'll blow em off the map
With the mack, thinkin its all rap
Til that ass get clapped and Doc say "It's a wrap"

(It's a wrap, nigga)

If I can't do well, homey, it can't be done
Now I'ma let the champagne bottle pop
I'ma take it to the top
Fo sho I'ma make it hot, baby (baby)

I been feelin i had to teach lessons to slow learners
Go head act up, get smacked in the head with the burner
I dont fight fair, I'm dirty-dirty
I'm from Southside Jamaica, Queens, nigga ya'heard me?
When streetlights come on niggaz blast the nines
Get locked up, they read books to pass the time
In the game there's up's and down's, so I stay on the grind
Niggaz on my dick more than my bitch, I stay on they mind
They aint nothin they could do to stop my shine
This is God's plan homey, this ain't mine
I played the music loud so Grandpa called me a nuisance
And Grandma; who always gotta throw in her two cent
I'm the drop out who made more more money than these teachers
Roofless/Ruthless like the Coupe but I come with more features
I am whut I am, you could like it or love it
It feels good to pull 50 grand & think nothin of it
Fuck it

If I can't do well, homey, it can't be done
Now I'ma let the champagne bottle pop
I'ma take it to the top
Fo sho I'ma make it hot, baby (baby)

Uh huh, hood make it hot
Dr Dre, Aftermath
Shady, ha ha

P.I.M.P.

I don't know what you heard about me
But a bitch can't get a dollar out of me
No Cadillac, no perms, you can't see
That I'm a motherfucking P-I-M-P

Now shorty, she in the club, she dancing for dollars
She got a thing for that Gucci, that Fendi, that Prada
That BCBG, Burberry, Dolce and Gabana
She feed them foolish fantasies, they pay her cause they wanna
I spit a little G man, and my game got her
A hour later, have that ass up in the Ramada
Them trick niggas in her ear saying they think about her
I got the bitch by the bar trying to get a drink up out her
She like my style, she like my smile, she like the way I talk
She from the country, think she like me cause I'm from New York
I ain't that nigga trying to holla cause I want some head
I'm that nigga trying to holla cause I want some bread
I could care less how she perform when she in the bed
Bitch hit that track, catch a date, and come and pay the kid
Look baby this is simple, you can't see
You fucking with me, you fucking with a P-I-M-P

I'm bout my money you see, girl you can holla at me
If you fucking with me, I'm a P-I-M-P
Not what you see on TV, no Cadillac, no greasy
Head full of hair, bitch I'm a P-I-M-P
Come get money with me, if you curious to see
how it feels to be with a P-I-M-P
Roll in the Benz with me, you could watch TV
From the backseat of my V, I'm a P-I-M-P
Girl we could pop some champagne and we could have a ball
We could toast to the good life, girl we could have it all
We could really splurge girl, and tear up the mall
If ever you needed someone, I'm the one you should call
I'll be there to pick you up, if ever you should fall
If you got problems, I can solve'em, they big or they small
That other nigga you be with ain't bout shit
I'm your friend, your father, and confidant, BITCH

I told you fools before, I stay with the tools
I keep a Benz, some rims, and some jewels
I holla at a hoe til I got a bitch confused
She got on Payless, me I got on gator shoes
I'm shopping for chinchillas, in the summer they cheaper
Man this hoe you can have her, when I'm done I ain't gon keep her
Man, bitches come and go, every nigga pimpin know
You saying it's secret, but you ain't gotta keep it on the low
Bitch choose with me, I'll have you stripping in the street
Put my other hoes down, you get your ass beat
Now Nik my bottom bitch, she always come up with my bread
The last nigga she was with put stitches in her head
Get your hoe out of pocket, I'll put a charge on a bitch
Cause I need 4 TVs and AMGs for the six
Hoe make a pimp rich, I ain't paying bitch
Catch a date, suck a dick, shiiit, TRICK

Yeah, in Hollywoood they say there's no b'ness like show b'ness
In the hood they say, there's no b'ness like hoe b'ness ya know
They say I talk a lil fast, but if you listen a lil faster
I ain't got to slow down for you to catch up, BITCH

21 Questions (feat. Nate Dogg)

New York City
You are now rockin'
With 50 cent
You gotta love it

I just wanna chill and twist a la
Catch ? on my seven-forty five
You drive me crazy shorty I,
Need to see you and feel you next to me
I'll provide everything you need and I
Like your smile I don't want to see you cry
Got some questions i gotta ask and I
Hope you can come up with the answers baby

Chorus:
Girl it's easy to love me now
Would you love me if i was down, and out
Would you still have love for me girl? (x2)

If I fell off tomorrow, would you still love me?
If I didn't smell so good, would you still hug me?
If I got locked up and sentenced to a quarter century,
Could I count on you to be there to support me mentally?
If I went back to a hoopty from a Benz,
Would you *poof* and disappear, like some of my friends?
If I was hit and i was hurt, would you be by my side?
If it was time to put in work, would you be down to ride?
I get out and peel a nigga cap, chill and drive
I'm asking questions to find out how you feel inside
If I ain't rapped cus I flipped burgers at Burger King,
Would you be ashamed to tell your friends you feelin' me?
And in bed, if I used my tongue, would you like that?
If I wrote you a love letter, would you write back?
Now we could have a little drink, you know a night cap
And we could go do what you like, I know you like that

Girl, its easy to love me now
Would you love me if i was down, and out
Would you still, have love for me girl (x2)

Now would you leave me if your father, found out I was thuggin'?
Do you believe me when I tell you, you the one I'm lovin'?
Are you mad cus I'm askin' you 21 questions?
Are you my soulmate, cus if so, girl you a blessin'
Do you trust me enough to tell me your dreams?
I'm starin' at you tryin' to figure how you got in them jeans
If I was down, would you say things to make me smile?
I'll treat you how you want to be treated, just teach me how
If I was with some other chick and someone happened to see
And when you asked me about it, I said it wasn't me
Would believe me, or up and leave me
How deep is our bond if that's all it takes for you to be gone
We only humans girl, we make mistakes
To make it up, I'll do whatever it takes
I love you like a fat kid love cake
You know my style, I'll say anything to make you smile

Chorus:
Girl, it's easy to love me now
Would you love me if i was down, and out
Would you still, have love, for me girl (x2)

Could you love me in a Bentley?
Could you love me on a bus?
I'll ask 21 questions
And they all about us (x2)

Life's on the Line

Nobody likes me
Nobody likes me, but that's okay
Cuz I don't like y'all anyway
…And I don't like y'all anyway
Fuck all y'all!!
My watch talk for me, my whip talk for me
My gat talk for me
BLAT! Wutup homie
For bitches who don't know me
…They wanna blow me cuz the shit I floss wit sayin a lot for me

I came into rap humble, I don't give a fuck now
Serve anybody like niggas who hustle uptown
Coke price go up, cats is come down
The D's run in my crib, I'm nowhere to be found
The bitch who hustle for me, they dont even stash tracks
They keep it on em, right there in they ass crack
When I don't like a nigga, I don't pretend to
I'll have the paramedics wrap your fuckin head like a Hindu
Look, I ain't goin nowhere, so get used to me
OG's look at me and see what they used to be
I'm that nigga that sold coke, the nigga that sold dope
The nigga that shot Dice when he broke to So So
The thug, they pop shit
The thug that pop clips
The thug that went from three and a half to whole bricks
Nigga ain't in his right mind, goin against me
My picture's painted through words that make a blind man see

Scream murder!
Murder!
Murder!
Murder, murder!

Y'all niggas don't want no parts of me
I'm tryna figure out how y'all started me
Make me catch her on the late night
Pop shots wit the fifth and slide off wit the six

I'm not a marksmen while spark issue, I spray random
Not a pretty nigga but my moms think I'm handsome
I hate to hear "He say, She say" shit
Unless he say she say she on my dick
It's no coincidence, niggas who fuck wit me get shot up
I do a Cali style drive by and tear ya block up
You soft through, be puttin up a crazy front
I stay wit the Mac, cuz niggas tried to blaze me once
In the hood they be like, "Damn, 50 really spitted on em"
"You heard that shit?" "Yeah, 50 really shitted on em"
Beef, you don't want none, so don't start none
You just a small player in this game, play a part son

These cats always escape reality when they rhyme
That's why they write about bricks and only dealt wit dimes
Leave it to them, and they say they got a fast car
Nascar, truck wit a crash bar
And TV's in the dash, pa
See em in the five wit stock rims, I just laugh, pa
I catch stunts when I ain't tryin
I ain't lyin, I sit Don P til I split up
Keep my rent split up
Get outta line, I get you hit up
Now if you say my name in your rhyme, watch what you say
You get carried away, you can get shot and carried away
Now here's a list of MC's that can kill you in eight bars:
50, umm Jay-Z and Nas
I'ma say this shit now and never again
We ain't buddies, we ain't partners and we damn sure ain't friends
The games you playin, you get killed like that
Actin like you all hard, you ain't built like that
See me when you see me nigga, one

Y'all niggas don't want no parts of me
I'm tryna figure out how y'all started me
You gon make me catch her on the late night
Pop shots wit the fifth and slide off wit the six

Humanity

I've been swallowed by your kindness
Every part of me is breaking down
You have let me feel so helpless
As if I couldn't drown

It was all with love
you understood the need in me
So much tenderness
you wrapped in humanity

You touched my soul
My very being
You made me whole
Now life has new meaning
Gotta a second chance
You can see the change in me
And as we dance
You wrap me in humanity

Others walked on by in their blindness
but you refused to let me be
My disguise you saw behind this
You pushed on in and set me free

And it was in protection
You held on with such certainty
Embraced by your affection
As you wrapped me in humanity

You touched my soul
My very being
You made me whole
Now life has new meaning
Gotta a second chance
You can see the change in me
And as we dance
You wrap me in humanity

Dancing Queen

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, digging the Dancing Queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for the place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come in to look for a King
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance…

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, digging the Dancing Queen

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave them burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance…

Take a Chance on Me

If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try

Take a chance on me
(That's all I ask of you honey)
Take a chance on me

We can go dancing, we can go walking, as long as we're together
Listen to some music, maybe just talking, get to know you better
'Cos you know I've got
So much that I wanna do, when I dream I'm alone with you
It's magic
You want me to leave it there, afraid of a love affair
But I think you know
That I can't let go

Take a chance on me
(Come on, give me a break will you?)
Take a chance on me

Oh you can take your time baby, I'm in no hurry, know I'm gonna get you
You don't wanna hurt me, baby don't worry, I ain't gonna let you
Let me tell you now
My love is strong enough to last when things are rough
It's magic
You say that I waste my time but I can't get you off my mind
No I can't let go
'Cos I love you so

If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best, baby can't you see
Gotta put me to the test, take a chance on me
(Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance on me)

Ba ba ba ba baa, ba ba ba ba baa
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best, baby can't you see
Gotta put me to the test, take a chance on me
(Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance on me)

Ba ba ba ba baa, ba ba ba ba baa ba-ba
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me

Mamma Mia

I've been cheated by you since I don't know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn?
I don't know how but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything, o-o-o-oh

Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I've missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know,
My my, I could never let you go.

I've been angry and sad about the things that you do
I can't count all the times that I've told you we're through
And when you go, when you slam the door
I think you know that you won't be away too long
You know that I'm not that strong.
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything, o-o-o-oh

Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I've missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, even if I say
Bye bye, leave me now or never
mamma mia, it's a game we play
Bye bye doesn't mean forever

Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I've missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go
Mamma mia, now I really know
My my, I could never let you go

Lay All Your Love On Me

I wasn't jealous before we met
Now every woman I see is a potential threat
And I'm possessive, it isn't nice
You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice
But now it isn't true
Now everything is new
And all I've learned has overturned
I beg of you……

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me

It was like shooting a sitting duck
A little smalltalk, a smile and baby I was stuck
I still don't know what you've done with me
A grown-up woman should never fall so easily
I feel a kind of fear
When I don't have you near
Unsatisfied, I skip my pride
I beg you dear……

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

I've had a few little love affairs
They didn't last very long and they've been pretty scarce
I used to think that was sensible
It makes the truth even more incomprehensible
'Cause everything is new
And everything is you
And all I've learned has overturned
What can I do……

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

Super Trouper

Super Trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue
Like I always do
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there's you

I was sick and tired of everything
When I called you last night from Glasgow
All I do is eat and sleep and sing
Wishing every show was the last show
(Wishing every show was the last show)
So imagine I was glad to hear you're coming
(Glad to hear you're coming)
Suddenly I feel all right
(And suddenly it's gonna be)
And it's gonna be so different
When I'm on the stage tonight

Tonight the
Super Trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Smiling, having fun
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the
Super Trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Like I always do
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there's you

Facing twenty thousand of your friends
How can anyone be so lonely
Part of a success that never ends
Still I'm thinking about you only
(Still I'm thinking about you only)
There are moments when I think I'm going crazy
(Think I'm going crazy)
But it's gonna be alright
(You'll soon be changing everything)
Everything will be so different
When I'm on the stage tonight

So I'll be there when you arrive
The sight of you will prove to me I'm still alive
And when you take me in your arms
And hold me tight
I know it's gonna mean so much tonight

Have A Dream

I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream

I have a dream, a fantasy
To help me through reality
And my destination makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness still another mile
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream

The Winner Takes It All

I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny

I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules

The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should I complain.

But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed

The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all

I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all…

Money, Money, Money

I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball…

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same…

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

It's a rich man's world

S.O.S.

Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
I tried to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love?
I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. O. S.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. O. S.
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

You seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died I fear
I really tried to make it out
I wish I understood
What happened to our love, it used to be so good

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. O. S.
And the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. O. S.
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though I try how can I carry on?
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

Voulez Vous

People everywhere
A sense of expectation hanging in the air
Giving out a spark
Across the room your eyes are glowing in the dark
And here we go again, we know the start, we know the end
Masters of the scene
We've done it all before and now we're back to get some more
You know what I mean

Voulez-vous (ah-ha)
Take it now or leave it (ah-ha)
Now is all we get (ah-ha)
Nothing promised, no regrets
Voulez-vous (ah-ha)
Ain't no big decision (ah-ha)
You know what to do (ah-ha)
La question c'est voulez-vous
Voulez-vous…

I know what you think
"The girl means business so I'll offer her a drink"
Looking mighty proud
I see you leave your table, pushing through the crowd
I'm really glad you came, you know the rules, you know the game
Master of the scene
We've done it all before and now we're back to get some more
You know what I mean

And here we go again, we know the start, we know the end
Masters of the scene
We've done it all before and now we're back to get some more
You know what I mean

Voulez-vous (ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha)
Voulez-vous (ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha)
Voulez-vous (ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha)
Voulez-vous (ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha)

Gimme!Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)

Half past twelve
And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
How I hate to spend the evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside the window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the phone
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow, with that fortune to win
It's so different from the world I'm living in
Tired of T.V.
I open the window and I gaze into the night
But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight…
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight…

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Waterloo

My my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself

Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo - Promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo

My my, I tried to hold you back but you were stronger
Oh yeah, and now it seems my only chance is giving up the fight
And how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose

And how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose

Far From In Love (Original Radio)

I can see behind your eyes
That you're afraid of who you are
Only silence now between us
I'm amazed we come this far

Far from in love (x2)

Like a fire burned to embers
I know this is where it ends
In the ashes we are dying
Almost strangers only friends

Far from in love (x4)

Far from in love
So far from in love
Far from in love

You know I don't know
How we'd get so far
Far from in love
Far away, from the love we had
yeah yeah

Far from in love
From all the loving that I knew
How I miss your touch
Far from in love

Sailing away from me
Like melting snow in my hand
I miss your touch
Far from in love
Trying to sew up a love that was built on this end.
I miss you so much

It's Hard To Find A Way

You tried to make me feel
Our love could be real
And I tried, tried to make you feel
You and me have a chance

We tried to understand
Promises have to be kept
But it's only a game
Where both of us hope to win

But I just found the first little cut
And I wonder why, oh God, but so what

It's hard to understand - and find a way
To give you all my life
Hard to understand - and hard to say
To give you all my life

Well, I pretend tonight
Our life is alright
But I feel the weakness now
Of living with a lie

I'm acting sweetness
But I'm burning in hate
'Cause I can't stand you hurting me
The same way I hurt you

But I just found the first little cut
And I wonder why, oh God, but so what

It's hard to understand - and find a way
To give you all my life
Hard to understand - and hard to say
To give you all my life
It's hard to understand - and find a way
To give you all my life
Hard to understand - so hard to say
To give you all my life

It's hard to understand - and find a way
Hard to understand - to understand
Hard to understand - you and me have a chance
To give you all my life
I'm burning in hate 'cause it's just a game
To give you all my life
It's hard to understand - so hard to understand
To give you all my life
Hard to understand - so hard to say
To give you all my life

How Long

How long has this been going on?
How long has this been going on?

Well, if friends with their fancy persuasion
Don't admit that it's part of a scheme,
Then I can't help but have my suspicions
'Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem.
And you said you was never intending
To break up our singing this way,
But there ain't any use in pretending.
It could happen to us any day.

How long has this been going on?
How long has this been going on?

Oh, your friends with their fancy persuasion
Don't admit that it's part of a scheme.
But I can't help but have my suspicions
'Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem.
Oh, you said you was never intending
To break up our singing this way,
But there ain't any use in pretending.
It could happen to us any day.

And how long has this been going on?
How long has this been going on?
How long?
How long has this been going on?
How long has this been going on?
How long has this been going on?
How long?
How long has this been going on?

Cry Ophelia

Something went wrong
You are not laughing
It's not so easy now to get your smile
You gotta be wrong
To walk these streets
And keep from falling
But when you're not, just let yourself cry

You've been working hard
Just trying to pay the rent
Tryin' to draw the line between who you are
and who you invent
But if you throw a stone
Something's gonna shatter somewhere
We're all so fragile
We're all so scared

You say you wanna learn how to live your life
without tears
But we've been trying to do that for thousands of years
So go on and cry Ophelia
It's the only thing to do sometimes
You know I'm crying too
Right there with you
It's alright Ophelia
Everybody cries

Thank god for my bad memory
I've forgotten some of the stupid things
that I've done
I've come to a little wisdom
through a whole lot of failure
So I watch more carefully what rolls off my tongue

You pray for rain
But you don't want it from a storm
You find a rose
And cut your finger on a thorn
So go on and cry Ophelia
It's the only thing to do sometimes
You know I'm crying too
Right there with you
It's alright Ophelia
Everybody cries Ophelia

The Living Daylights

Hey driver where're we going
I swear my nerves are showing
Set your hopes up way too high
The living's in the way we die

Comes the morning and the headlights fade away
Hundred thousand people I'm the one they blame
I've been waiting long for one of us to say
Save the darkness let it never fade away
In the living daylights

All right hold on tighter now
It's down down to the wire
Set your hopes up way too high
The living's in the way we die

Comes the morning and the headlights fade in rain
Hundred thousand changes, everything's the same
I've been waiting long for one of us to say
Save the darkness, let it never fade away
In the living daylights

Comes the morning and the headlights fade away
Hundred thousand people, I'm the one they blame
In the living daylights

Velvet

Her skin is like velvet
Her face cut from stone
Her eyes when she's smiling
Will never reach home
But hear how she sings

Her touch would be tender
Her lips would be warm
But when we're together
I'm always alone
But hear how she sings
But hear how she sings
Hear how she sings

Her skin is like velvet
So I went to her home
Her place like a palace
With things you can't own
Her skin is like velvet
And hear how she sings
Hear how she sings…

Making Love (Out of Nothing At All)

I know just how to whisper
And I know just how to cry
I know just where to find the answers
And I know just how to lie
I know just how to fake it
And I know just how to scheme
I know just when to face the truth
And then I know just when to dream
And I know just where to touch you
And I know just what to prove
I know when to pull you closer
And I know when to let you loose
And I know the night is fading
And I know the time's gonna fly
And I'm never gonna tell you everything I've gotta tell you
But I know I've gotta give it a try
And I know the roads to riches
And I know the ways to fame
I know all the rules and then I know how to break 'em
And I always know the name of the game
But I don't know how to leave you
And I'll never let you fall
And I don't know how you do it

Making love out of nothing at all
Out of nothing at all, out of nothing at all
Out of nothing at all, out of nothing at all
Out of nothing at all
Making love out of nothing at all

Everytime I see you all the rays of the sun are
Streaming through the waves in your hair
And every star in the sky is taking aim at
Your eyes like a spotlight
The beating of my heart is a drum, and it's lost
And it's looking for a rhythm like you
You can take the darkness at the pit of the night
And turn into a beacon burning endlessly bright
I've gotta follow it 'cause everything I know
Well, it's nothing 'til I give it to you
I can make the runner stumble
I can make the final block
I can make every tackle at the sound of the whistle
I can make all the stadiums rock
I can make tonight forever
Or I can make it disappear by the dawn
I can make you every promise that has ever been made
And I can make all your demons be gone
But I'm never gonna make it without you
Do you really wanna see me crawl
And I'm never gonna make it like you do

Making love out of nothing at all
Out of nothing at all, out of nothing at all
Out of nothing at all, out of nothing at all
Out of nothing at all, out of nothing at all
Out of nothing at all

How Can You Mend A Broken Heart

I can think of younger days when living for my life
Was everything a man could want to do
I could never see tomorrow, but I was never told about the sorrow

And how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
How can you mend a this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again

I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees
And misty memories of days gone by
We could never see tomorrow, no one said a word about the sorrow

And how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
How can you mend this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again

Wunderkind

Oh, perilous place walk backwards toward you
Blink disbelieving eyes chilled to the bone
Most visibly brave no apprehended bloom
First to take this foot to virgin snow

I am magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind
And I live the envelope pushed far enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne
Destined to serve, destined to roam

Oh, ominous place spellbound and un-child-proofed
My least favorite shelter bear alone
Compatriots in face they?d cringe if I told you
Our best back pocket secret our bond full blown

And I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind
And I am pioneer naive enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne
Destined to seek, destined to know

Most beautiful place reborn and blown off roof
My view about face whether great will be done

And I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind
I am a groundbreaker naive enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

And I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind

I am a Joan of Arc and smart enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam

In eight easy steps
The course of a lifetime, you'll never forget
I'll show you how to in eight easy steps
I'll show you how leadership looks when taught by the best

Out is Through

Every time you raise your voice
I see the greener grass
Every time you run for cover
I see this pasture
Every time we're in a funk
I picture a different choice
Every time we're in a rut
This distant grandeur

My tendency to want to do away feels natural
My urgency to dream of softer places feels understandable

The only way out is through
The faster we're in the better
The only way out is through ultimately
The only way out is through
The only way we'll feel better
The only way out is through ultimately

Every time that I'm confused
I think there must be easier ways
Every time our horns are locked on toweling-throwing
Every time we're at a loss, we've bolted from difficulty
Anytime we're still made of final bowing

My tendency to want to hide away feels easier and
The tendency is picturing another place comforting to go

The only way out is through
The faster we're in the better
The only way out is through ultimately
The only way out is through
The only way we'll feel better
The only way out is through ultimately

We could just walk away and hide our hands in the sand
We could just call it quits, only to start over again
With somebody else…

Every time we're stuck in struggle, I'm down for the count that down
Every time I dream of quick fix I'm swaged
Now I know it's hard when it's through
And I'm damned if I don't know quick fix way
But formerly mistreat me silence now outdated

My tendency to want to run feels unnatural now
The urgency to want to give to you what I want most feels good

The only way out is through
The faster we're in the better
The only way out is through ultimately
The only way out is through
The only way we'll feel better
The only way out is through ultimately

Excuses

Why no one will help me
I am too dumb I am too smart
They'll not understand me
I am lonely
They'll hate me
And there is not enough time
It's too hard to help me
And god wants me to work
No resting no lazy

These excuses how they served me so well
They've kept me safe
They've kept me stoic
They've kept me locked in my own cell

I'm too far from home
It takes far too much energy
And I cannot afford to
No one will ever see me

These excuses how they served me so well
They've kept me safe
They've kept me stoic
They've kept me locked inside my cell

These excuses how they're so familiar
They've kept me small
They've kept me blocked
They've kept me safe inside my shell

Bringing this into the light
Shakes their foundation
And it clears my side
Now my imagination
Is the only thing that limits
The bar that is raised to the heights

No one can have it all see
I have to they want me to
And I can't let them down
I'll never be happy

These excuses how they served me so well
They've kept me safe
They've kept me small
They've kept me locked inside my cell

These excuses how they're so familiar
They've kept me small
They've kept me stoic
They've kept me locked inside my cell

Doth I Protest Too Much

I'm not threatened, by every pair of legs you watch go by
I don't cringe when you stare at women, it's just a thing called guy
I don't notice your sideway glances or where your loyalty lies
I'm secure and out of me, it's hard to get a rise

I'm not jealous
I don't get moved my much
I'm not enraged
Not insecure as such
Not going insane
Rational stays in touch
Doth I protest too much?

I'm not tortured by how often your busy, 'cause I've got things to do
I'm not disappointed about how you don't miss you me, cause I don't need you to

I'm not needy
I don't get clingy much
I'm not scared
I'm not afraid as such
I'm not dependent
Rock solid, stays in touch
And doth I protest too much?

So much energy to prove to you
Who I can't possibly be
So much energy to prove to you
I'm not who you hate for me to be

I'm not saddened and I don't miss you
'Cause I have moved on too
I'm not concerned about your new lover
Cause I have a new lover too

I'm not depressed
I don't get down that much
I'm not despondent
I am not dark as such
I'm never sad
Keep chin up, stays in touch
And doth I protest too much?

I'm not jealous
I don't get moved my much
I'm not enraged
Not insecure as such
Not going insane
Rational stays in touch
And doth I protest too much?

Knees of My Bees

we share a culture same vernacular
love of physical humor and time spent alone
you with your penchant for spontaneous events
for sticky and raspy, unearthed and then gone

you are a gift promised sent with a wink
with tendencies for conversations that raise bars
you are a sage who is fueled by compassion
comes to nooks and crannies, is bound for all stars

you make the knees of my bees weak, tremble and buckle
you make the knees of my bees weak

you are a spirit that knows of no limit
that knows of no ceiling who baulks at dead-ends
you are a wordsmith who cares for his brothers
not seduced by illusions of fair-weather friends

you make the knees of my bees weak, tremble and buckle
you make the knees of my bees weak

you are a vision who lives by the signals of
stomach and intuition as your guide
you are a sliver of god on a platter
who walks what he talks and who cops when he's lied

you make the knees of my bees weak, tremble and buckle
you make the knees of my bees weak
you make the knees of my bees weak, tremble and buckle
you make the knees of my bees weak
you make the knees of my bees weak, tremble and buckle
you make the knees of my bees weak

Not All Me

I rather face all on top of my face
I am the perfect target screen
For your blindly fueled rage
I bare the brunt of your long buried pain
I don't mind helping you out
But I want you to remember my name

It's not all me
It's not all my fault
I need remind you, but I won't take it all on

Past riddled rage
I see the buttons I engage
With my dignity in place
I'm all too happy to switch

It's not all me
It's not all my fault
I need remind you, but I won't take it all on

Lest I find my voice
Find the strength to stand up to you
Lest I stay to my limit
And only take on what is mine to

We are a team
I'm here to help mend and rescind
All I trigger unknowingly
A job I hold in high esteem

It's not all me
It's not all my fault
I need remind you, but I won't take it all on

It's not all me
It's not all my fault
I need remind you, but I won't take it all on
I'll only take some of it

So Called Chaos

deadlines, and meetings
and contracts all breached
d-days and structure
responsibility

have to's and need to's
and get to's by three
dinner then flowers
and upset employees

i wanna be naked,
running through the streets!
i wanna invite this so called chaos,
that you think i dare not be
i wanna be weightless,
flying through the air!
i wanna drop all these limitations
in the shoes upon my feet, oh!

heart-burn and headaches
and soon to be ulcers
compulsive yearnings
non-stop to please others

all won't be lost if i am
governed by my own uniqueness
stop lights won't work, i'll get home
sound and safe, regardless
won't need a hand if
i'm ruled by my own discreetness
my fire won't quell,
and i'll be harmfree and
distressless and trusting

line towing, and helping
expectations up to living
inside box obeying
inside line coloring

This Grudge

Fourteen years
thirty minutes
fifteen seconds I've
held this grudge

Eleven songs
four full journals
thoughts of punishment
I've expended

Not in contact
not a letter
such communication
telepathic
you've been vilified
used as fodder
you deserve a piece
of every record

But who's it hurting now?
Who's the one that's stuck?
Who's it torturing now
with an antique knot in her stomach?

I want to be big and let go
of this grudge that's grown old
all this time I've not known
how to rest this bygone
I wanna be soft and resolved
clean of slate and released
I wanna forgive for the both of us

Like an abandoned house
dusty covered
furniture
still intact
If I visit it now
will I simply re-live it
somehow gratuitous

But who's still aching now?
Who's tired of her own voice?
Who is it weighing down
With no gift from time of said healing

Maybe as I cut the cord
veils will lift from my eyes
Maybe as I lay this to rest
dead weight off my shoulders will rise

Here I sit
much determined
ever ill-equipped
to draw this curtain
how this has entertained
validated
and has served me well
ever the victim

But who's done whining now?
Who's ready to put down
this load I've carried longer than I had cared to remember

I want to be big and let go
of this grudge that's grown old
For the life of me I've not known
how to rest this bygone
I wanna be soft and resolved
clean of slate and released
I wanna forgive for the both of us

Spineless

I won't see my dear friends as much
Male friends especially, I'll no longer be in touch
I'll change my hobbies to match yours

I'll stop reading my favorite books
I won't spend all this selfish time alone
I'll cater to you and hang on your every word

I'll be subservient and spineless
I'll lick your boots as empty shells
I'll be opinionless and silent
I'll be the prettiest appendage to ever lose herself

I'll re-define self-sacrifice
Live my life as apologetic compromise
I'll know you need if I rock the boat

I'll be subservient and spineless
I'll lick your boots as empty shells
I'll be opinionless and silent
I'll be the prettiest appendage to ever lose herself

I feel this, truly proclaimed will help the curbing of this tendency
I know this sharing of shame will ensure that I won't forget myself so easily

I'll be low-maintenance and agreeable
I will not talk about my dreams so much
I'll listen to you for hours, won't need anything

I'll be subservient and spineless
I'll lick your boots as empty shells
I'll be opinionless and silent
I'll be the prettiest appendage to ever lose herself

I feel this, truly proclaimed will help the curbing of this tendency
I know this sharing of shame will ensure that I won't forget myself so easily

Everything

I can be an asshole* of the grandest kind (*in x-rated version asshole= a nightmare)
I can withhold like it’s going out of style
I can be the moodiest baby, and you’ve never met anyone (who’s)
As negative I am sometimes

I am the wisest woman you’ve ever met
I am the kindest soul with whom you’ve got it that
I have the bravest heart that you’ve ever seen, and you’ve never met anyone (who’s)
As positive as I am sometimes

*(In the radio version 4 sentences above are different, see below)

You see everything
You see every part
You see all my light
And you love my dark
You dig everything
Of which I’m ashamed
There’s not anything
to which you can’t relate. And you’re still here

I blame everyone else, not my own partaking
My passive aggressiveness can be devastating
I’m the most gorgeous woman that you’ve ever known, and you’ve never met anyone (who’s)
As everything as I am sometimes

You see everything
You see every part
You see all my light
And you love my dark
You dig everything
Of which I’m ashamed
There’s not anything
To which you can’t relate. And you’re still here

What I resist, persists, and speaks louder than I know
What I resist, you love, no matter how low or high I go

You see everything
You see every part
You see all my light
And you love my dark
You dig everything
Of which I’m ashamed
There’s not anything
to which you can’t relate.

(Outro) And you’re still here.

*Radio version

The first 8 sentences/2 paragraphs change (to make the song shorter):

I can be an asshole* of the grandest kind (*in x-rated version asshole= a nightmare)
I can withhold like it’s going out of style
I have the bravest heart that you’ve ever seen, and you’ve never met anyone (who’s)
As positive as I am sometimes

The rest of the song continues as above

Hands Clean

If it weren't for your maturity none of this would have happened
If you weren't so wise beyond your years I would've been able to control myself
If it weren't for my attention you wouldn't have been successful and
If it weren't for me you would never have amounted to very much

Ooh this could be messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime

We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
And I have honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this

You're essentially an employee and I like you having to depend on me
You're kind of my protégé and one day you'll say you learned all you know from me
I know you depend on me like a young thing would to a guardian
I know you sexualize me like a young thing would and I think I like it

Ooh this could get messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime

We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
And I have honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this

what part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept?
what part of your memory is selective and tends to forget?
what with this distance it seems so obvious?

Just make sure you don't tell on me especially to members of your family
We best keep this to ourselves and not tell any members of our inner posse
I wish I could tell the world cuz you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly
I might want to marry you one day if you watch that weight and keep your firm body

Ooh this could be messy and
Ooh I don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime

We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
And I have honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this

Ooh this could get messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime

We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
And I have honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this

Black Velvet

Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

Chorus:
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please

Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
White lightening, bound to drive you wild
Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl
"Love me tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

chorus

Every word of every song that he sang was for you
In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon, what could
you do?

(Solo)

chorus repeats 2x

If you please, if you please, if you please

Crying At The Discoteque

Downtown's been caught by the hysteria
People scream and shout
A generation's on the move
When disco spreads like bacteria
These lonely days are out
Welcome the passion of the groove

The golden years
The silver tears
You wore a tie like Richard Gere
I wanna get down
You spin me around
I stand on the borderline
Crying at the discoteque
Crying at the discoteque

I saw you crying
I saw you crying at the discoteque
I saw you crying
I saw you crying at the discoteque

Tonight's the night at the danceteria
The joining of the tribe
The speakers blasting clear and loud
The way you dance is our criteria
The DJ takes you high
Let tears of joy baptise the crowd

The golden years
The silver tears
You wore a tie like Richard Gere
I wanna get down
You spin me around
I stand on the borderline
Crying at the discoteque
Crying at the discoteque
I saw you crying
I saw you crying at the discoteque
I saw you crying
I saw you crying at the discoteque

The passion of the groove
Generation on the move
Joining of the disco tribe
Let the music take you high

Don't Leave Me Alone

Leave me alone
Can't you see I can't stop crying
I get down on my knees
I'll be begging you please
Don't leave me alone
Leave me alone
Don't leave me alone
Leave me alone
Don't leave me alone
Last night we were celebrating
You played truth or dare
I came out hallucinating
And love was in the air
We met down in clubland
We had an affair
We danced in the spotlight
The fire was there
You said I'm the only
Then walked out of town
I beg you please don't turn around
Leave me alone
Can't you see I can't stop crying
I get down on my knees
I'll be begging you please
Don't leave me alone
Leave me alone
Can't you see I can't stop crying
If you walk out that door
I can't stand it no more
Don't leave me alone
Sitting through this courtroom drama of who did what to whome
Stand accused of cold seduction
The cameras ready zoom
You said there was more
That your love was for real
You said you'd come back for my heartache to heal
I stand on a bridge
And I'm ready to fly
This time it's my last goodbye
Leave me alone
Can't you see I can't stop crying
I get down on my knees
I'll be begging you please
Don't leave me alone
Leave me alone
Can't you see I can't stop crying
If you walk out that door I can't stand it no more
Don't leave me alone
Leave me alone
Can't you see I can't stop crying
I get down on my knees
I'll be begging you please
Don't leave me alone
Leave me alone
We met down in clubland
We had an affair
We danced in the spotlight
The fire was there
You said I'm the only
Then walked out of town
I beg you please don't turn around
You said there was more
That your love was for real
You said you'd come back
For my heartache to heal
I stand on a bridge
And I'm ready to fly
This time it's my last goodbye
Leave me alone
Can't you see I can't stop crying
I get down on my knees
I'll be begging you please
Don't leave me alone Leave me alone
Can't you see I can't stop crying
If you walk out that door I can't stand it no more
Don't leave me alone

Paris In The Rain

I've been searching every nightclub
From Marais to Montparnasse
Clouds above are crying
I'm a stranger you can trust
Heartaches I'm escaping
Love that's gone insane
Fountains heal the heartache

Paris in the rain
Paris in the rain
Menage a trois
Paris in the rain
Paris in the rain
Menage a trois

Where I love to love you
Where I love to love you
Where I love to love you
Where I love to love you

Catwalk something Gaultier
Looking sharp in a McQueen
Dior Galliano
Share the glamour of the scene
But seasons have an ending
And the glamour was in vain
Fountains heal the heartache

Paris in the rain
Paris in the rain
Menage a trois
Paris in the rain
Paris in the rain
Menage a trois
Where I love to love you
Where I love to love you
Where I love to love you
Where I love to love you

Menage a trois
Menage a trois

Sailing through ovations
At a fashion year's awards
Then she's crying to the airport
From Place de la Concorde
It's a city built on romance
Love that's gone insane
Fountains heal the heartache

Paris in the rain
Paris in the rain
Menage a trois
Paris in the rain

Baby Come Back

I wanna be your everything
I'm gonna stalk you after midnight
I'll stalk you when the bells are ringing
And we can make it work alright tonight

Mirror mirror on the wall
Can you tell me
Who's the greatest love of all
Can you help me
I'm waiting for the day
Every night I'm gonna pray
Baby come back to me

Baby come back

I save your prayers every day
But baby you can stop pretending
Tonight I'm gonna come your way

Mirror mirror on the wall
Can you tell me
Who's the greatest love of all
Can you help me
I'm feeling kind of blue
Cause my everything is you
Baby come back to me

Baby come back
Baby come back
Don't you wanna be with me

Breaking Free

I'm Breaking Free
You wanted a liftime lover
I thought we'll share our romance till the end
But you went and found another
Leaving a heart I can't mend
I had enough of crying
You won't come creeping around anymore
Cause I had enough of lying
Just walk out the door
I'm breaking free
From the chains of your heart
Gonna tear them apart and move on
'Cause this is me
I can't live in a lie
Got to try to survive and be strong
I am more than a pastime plaything
You will have to be cheating on somebody new
'Cause I feel I'm done with losing
I'm looking for love that is true
We can't go on together
'Cause I'm so much stronger when I'm on my own
I feel like it's now or never
Gonna make it alone
I'm breaking free
From the chains of your heart
Gonna tear them apart and move on
Cause this is me
I can't live in a lie
Got to try and survive and be strong

Don't You Want Me

Don't you want me baby?

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you .I picked you up, I shook you up, and turned you around
Turned you into someone new
Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too

Don't don't you want me?
You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me
Don't don't you want me?
You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me
It's much too late to find
You think you've changed your mind
You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry
Don't you want me baby? (baby)
Don't you want me - oooooooh
Don't you want me baby ?(baby)
Don't you want me - oooooooh

I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
That much is true
But even then I knew I'd find a much better things
Even with or without you
The five years we have had have been such good times
I still love you
But now I think it's time I live my life on my own
I guess it's just what I must do

Don't you want me baby ?(baby)
Don't you want me - oooooh
Don't you want me baby ?(baby)
Don't you want me - oooooh (2,5 x)

Shine On

Shine on
Shine among the stars
Heaven sent an angel
The heaven where you are
Shine on
Brighten up the sky
Tell the world I'm coming
I follow you up high
Lost on the ocean
Across the raging sea
An angel came descending
An angel sent for me
Silence in the waters
You kept the night at bay
But only moments later
The savior's gone away
Shine on
Shine among the stars
Heaven sent an angel
The heaven where you are
Shine on
Brighten up the sky
Tell the world I'm coming
I follow you up high
Late in the evening
The company I keep
I walk the road to nowhere
I put myself to sleep
Pray I find a savior
Someone to take my hand
And if only for the moment
I could see the promised land
Shine on
Shine among the stars
Heaven sent an angel
The heaven where you are
Shine on
Brighten up the sky
Tell the world I'm coming
I follow you up high
Treasures I've been seeking
Where angels fear to go
Treasures I've been hunting
I'd trade them all to know
How could I live beside you
You know how hard I tried
To get inside your kingdom
The tears that I cried
Shine on
Shine on
Shine on
Shine on
Shine on
Shine among the stars
Heaven sent an angel
The heaven where you are
Shine on
Brighten up the sky
Tell the world I'm coming I follow you up high
