The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!

I feel like a stranger
Like a stranger in my own home town
I feel like a stranger
Like a stranger in my own home town
Oh, my so-called friends stopped being friendly
Oh, but you can't keep a good man down
Oh, you can't get him down
I came home with good intentions
About five or six years ago
I came home with good intentions, yeah yeah
About five or six years ago
But my home town won't ACCEPT me
Just don't feel welcome here no more, oh no no no
Woah!
Yeah
Yeah
I said, I came home with good intentions
About five or six years ago
I said, I came home with good intentions
About five or six, about five or six years ago
Oh, but my home town won't accept me, brrrrrrr
I just don't feel welcome here no more, no more, no more
I'm going back down, down never
I'ma start driving that truck again, ooh
I said I'm going back that home down, down, down
I'm going start driving that dumb truck again, ooh
With old Joe, Charlie and Richard
Gon' starve to death
Yeah, son, you have been appeared, ooh
I came home with good intentions
About five or six, five or six years ago, woah
Yeah, I came home with good intentions, baby
About five or six years ago
I forget what you did, I don't recall
My home town won't accept me
Just don't feel welcome here no more, no more, no more
Yeah
Sometimes I'm right and I can be wrong
My own beliefs are in my song
The butcher, the banker, the drummer and then
Makes no difference what group I'm in
I am everyday people, yeah yeah
There is a blue one who can't ACCEPT
The green one for living with
A fat one tryin' to be a skinny one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scooby dooby dooby
Ooh sha sha
We got to live together
I am no better and neither are you
We're all the same whatever we do
You love me you hate me
You know me and then
You can't figure out the bag I'm in
I am everyday people
There is a long hair
That doesn't like the short hair
For being such a rich one
That will not help the poor one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on scooby dooby dooby
Ooh sha sha
We got to live together
There is a yellow one that won't
ACCEPT the black one
That won't ACCEPT the red one
That won't ACCEPT the white one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and
Scooby dooby dooby
Ooh sha sha

Don't make me over
Now that I'd do anything for you
Don't make me over
Now that you know how I adore you
Don't pick on the things I say, the things I do
Just love me with all my fault
The way that I love you
I'm begging you
Don't make me over
Now that I can't make it without you
Don't make me over
I wouldn't change one thing about you
Just take me inside your arms and hold me tight
And always be by my side, if I am wrong or right
I'm begging you
Don't make me over
Don't make me over
Now that you've got me at your command
ACCEPT me for what I am
ACCEPT me for the things that I do
ACCEPT me for what I am
ACCEPT me for the things that I do
Now that I'd do anything for you
Now that you know how I adore you
Just take me inside your arms and hold me tight
And always be by my side, if I am wrong or right
I'm begging you
Don't make me over
Don't make me over
Now that you've got me at your command
Accept me for what I am
Accept me for the things that I do
Accept me for what I am
Accept me for the things that I do
Listen boy
I don't want to see you let a good thing
Slip away
You know I don't like watching
Anybody make the same mistakes
I made
She's a real nice girl
And she's always there for you
But a nice girl wouldn't tell you what you should do
Listen boy
I'm sure that you think you got it all
Under control
You don't want somebody telling you
The way to stay in someone's soul
You're a big boy now
You'll never let her go
But that's just the kind of thing
She ought to know
Tell her about it
Tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason to ACCEPT
That you're for real
Tell her about it
Tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her
Let her know how much she means
Listen boy
It's not automatically a certain guarantee
To insure yourself
You've got to provide communication constantly
When you love someone
You're always insecure
And there's only one good way
To reassure
Tell her about it
Let her know how much you care
When she can't be with you
Tell her you wish you were there
Tell her about it
Every day before you leave
Pay her some attention
Give her something to believe
'Cause now and then
She'll get to worrying
Just because you haven't spoken
For so long
Though you may not have done anything
Will that be a consolation when she's gone
Listen boy
It's good information from a man
Who's made mistakes
Just a word or two that she gets from you
Could be the difference that it makes
She's a trusting soul
She's put her trust in you
But a girl like that won't tell you
What you should do
Tell her about it
Tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason
To ACCEPT that you're for real
Tell her about it
Tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her
Let her know how much she means
Tell her about it
Tell her how you feel right now
Tell her about it
The girl don't want to wait too long
You got to tell her about it
Tell her now and you won't go wrong
You got to tell her about it
Before it gets too late
You got to tell her about it
You know the girl don't want
To wait, you got to
Tell her about it

Right or wrong, accept me as I am
Not at all or do the best that 'cha can
Right or wrong, accept me as I am
After all, I'm not your superman
Subtle as a river across the desert floor
Vying for attention, getting less and wanting more
Feelin' just like Dorothy, the day she fell from Oz
I traveled all this way to find out who I really was
Right or wrong, accept me as I am
Not at all or do the best that 'cha can
Right or wrong, accept me as I am
After all, I'm not your superman
Just below the surface, protected from the past
Broken by your point of view, I hid behind the mask
I was near surrender, trapped in secret pride
Worried that you needed more than what I had inside
Right or wrong, accept me as I am
Not at all or do the best that 'cha can
Right or wrong, accept me as I am
After all, I'm not your superman
Right or wrong, accept me as I am
Not at all or do the best that 'cha can
Right or wrong, accept me as I am
After all, I'm not your superman
Bottom line, gonna be fine whatever you decide
Finally I can be me no matter what you think
Yesterday, I was afraid to really show my face
It's a new day and I said all that to say
Right or wrong, accept me as I am
Not at all or do the best that 'cha can
Right or wrong, accept me as I am
After all, I'm not your superman
Right or wrong, accept me as I am
Not at all or do the best that 'cha can
Right or wrong, accept me as I am
After all, I'm not your superman
A prisoner of your love
Entangled in your web
Hot whispers in the night
I'm captured by your spell
Captured
Oh, yes, I'm touched by the show of emotion
Should I be fractured by your lack of devotion?
Should I?
Should I?
You better be good to me
That's how it's got to be now
'Cause I don't have no use
For what you loosely call the truth
You better be good to me
Mmm
I oughta think it's oh, so right
How we don't need to fight
We stand face to face
And you present your case
Yes, I know
You keep telling me that you need me
And I really do wanna believe
But did you think I'd just ACCEPT you in blind faith
Oh, sure, baby
Anything to please you
But you better be good
And I really don't see
Why it's so hard to be good to me
And you know-
I don't understand what's your plan (why can't you be?)
That you can't be good to me (why can't you be?)
No I can't feel (why can't you be?)
I surely cannot see
Why can't you be- (why can't you be?)
(Good, good, good)
Be good to me! (good, good, good)
'Cause I don't have no time for your overloaded lies
And I don't have no use for what you loosely call the truth
You better be good to me
Yeah, you better be good!
Be good to me!

Rod Stewart, SOME GUYS HAVE ALL THE LUCK
Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain
Alone in a crowd on a bus after working, I'm dreaming
The guy next to me has a girl in his arms, my arms are empty
How does it feel when the girl next to you says she loves you?
Seems so unfair when there's love everywhere but there's none for me
Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain
Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo
Someone to take on a walk by the lake Lord, let it be me
Someone who's shy, someone who'd cry at sad movies
I know I would die if I ever found out she was foolin' me
You're just a dream, and as real as it seems, I ain't that lucky
Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain
All of my friends have a ring on their finger, they have someone
Someone to care for them, it ain't fair, I got no one
The car overheated, I called up and pleaded, there's help on the way
I called you collect, you didn't ACCEPT, you had nothing to say
Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain
But if you were here with me
I'd feel so happy, I could cry
You are so dear to me
I just can't let you say goodbye
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo

Oh my name it ain't nothin'
My age it means less
The country I come from
Is called the Midwest
I was taught and brought up there
The laws to abide
And that land that I live in
Has God on its side
Oh, the history books tell it
They tell it so well
The cavalries charged
The Indians fell
The cavalries charged
The Indians died
Oh, the country was young
With God on its side
The Spanish-American
War had its day
And the Civil War, too
Was soon laid away
And the names of the heroes
I was made to memorize
With guns in their hands
And God on their side
The First World War, boys
It came and it went
The reason for fighting
I never did get
But I learned to ACCEPT it
Accept it with pride
For you don't count the dead
When God's on your side
The Second World War
Came to an end
We forgave the Germans
And then we were friends
Though they murdered six million
In the ovens they fried
The Germans now, too
Have God on their side
I've learned to hate the Russians
All through my whole life
If another war comes
It's them we must fight
To hate them and fear them
To run and to hide
And accept it all bravely
With God on my side
But now we got weapons
Of chemical dust
If fire them, we're forced to
Then fire, them we must
One push of the button
And a shot the world wide
And you never ask questions
When God's on your side
Through many a dark hour
I've been thinkin' about this
That Jesus Christ was
Betrayed by a kiss
But I can't think for you
You'll have to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot
Had God on his side.
So now as I'm leavin'
I'm weary as Hell
The confusion I'm feelin'
Ain't no tongue can tell
The words fill my head
And fall to the floor
That if God's on our side
He'll stop the next war
My name is Crash
Side winding I flash like a burning flare
Don't look away 'cause I'm already in there
I've been there wherever you stare
I've been there longer than you care to remember
Buried deep inside you
Now you must step to accept all the past behind you
Pain breeding pain and it's back again
Only the scars in your brain remain
So you look for a vent, you consent to escape
What's gone and now I'm on
From the nipple to the needle to the bottle
And you're never satisfied
For these crimes you must be tried
You can't hide 'cause I am reality
Your birthright is a world of insanity
Disconnected legacy and you will never see
An end to the global savagery
Continuing to feed your desire for more
But deep down you know the truth
You'll never find what you're looking for
It's gone and you can't buy it back
And now your senses are under attack
So you act automatic and turn
To the frantic nation of addicts
Reduced to the manic, false erratic
Solemn, doped up slaves
And servants of greed because you were
Born into the age of panic
Into an age of panic
Born into an age of panic
Into an age of panic
Born into an age of panic
Into the age of panic
Born into the age of panic
Into an age of panic
Now I'm going all city with the master plan
I'm faster man and I'm about to tell you just who I am
I am the reality you can't escape
The visions recorded on disk and tape
The ****, the horror, the shame so familiar
My words fill you with dread and then kill you dead
Stone cold in your stride
I fill a hole in your soul around fifty miles wide
I'm the contradiction each time you speak
I keep you weakened, I get down at your feet
I am the part that you can never reconcile
You're right here but you're living in exile
Walking in cities of stone, the shadows groan
Thousands of people but you're all alone
In your own little zone like a drone
Working in hives all your lives, bowing down to the throne
The overlords made in your own image
Anesthetized you in the global village
Now you're finished, dependent, lost in a maze
You're dazed as you stare at the glowing blaze
Erased, your future pulses in a computer
I am you, now how'd that suit ya?
Inherited chaos now instilled as I willed
And now I just wait for the kill as they're
Born into the age of panic
Into an age of panic
Born into an age of panic
Into an age of panic
Born into the age of panic
Into an age of panic
Born into an age of panic
Into an age of panic
Born into the age of panic
Into an age of panic
Born into the age of panic
Into an age of panic
Born into the age of panic
Into an age of panic
Born into the age of panic
Into an age of panic
Into an age of panic
Into an age of panic
Into an age of panic

There are places I'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved THEM all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more
I'll light the fire
You place the flowers in the vase
That you bought today
Staring at the fire
For hours and hours while I listen to you
Play your love songs all night long for me
Only for me
Come to me now (Come to me now)
And rest your head for just five minutes
Everything is done
Such a cozy room (Such a cozy room)
The windows are illuminated
By the evening sunshine through THEM
Fiery gems for you, only for you
Our house is a very, very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy 'cause of you
And our
La-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la

La-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Our house is a very, very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy 'cause of you
And our
I'll light the fire
While you place the flowers in the vase
That you bought today

For those who fancy colouring books
And lots of people do
Here's a new one for you
A most unusual colouring book
The kind you never see
Crayons ready
Very well
Begin to colour me
These are the eyes
That watched him
As he walked away
Colour THEM grey
This is the heart
That thought
He would always be true
Colour it blue
These are the arms that held him
And loved him
Then lost him somehow
Oh...
Colour them empty now
These are the beads
I wore until she came between
Colour them green
This is the room that I sleep in
And walk in, and weep in, and hide in
That nobody sees
Oh...
Colour it lonely please
This is the man
Whose love I depended upon
Colour him gone
Southern man, better keep your head
Don't forget what your good book said
Southern change gonna come at last
Now your crosses are burning fast
Southern man
I saw cotton and I saw black
Tall white mansions and little shacks
Southern man, when will you pay THEM back?
I heard screamin' and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long? How?
Southern man, better keep your head
Don't forget what your good book said
Southern change gonna come at last
Now your crosses are burning fast
Southern man
Lily Belle, your hair is golden brown
I've seen your black man comin' round
Swear by God I'm gonna cut him down
I heard screamin' and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long? How?

I hear them calling for you
I hear them calling for you
I feel the waves getting started
It's a rush inside I can't control
Your eyes keep pulling me in
I know, I know, I know
Your friends all talkin' 'bout me
They say I got no chance at all
Your fire is burning deep
In my soul, my soul, my soul
I ain't up for debating
Ain't in it for the taking
We got the world shaking
In the middle of the night when the wolves come out
They head straight for your heart
Like a bullet in the dark
One by one, I take them down
We can run and hide, ain't goin' down without a fight
I hear them calling for you
I hear them calling for you
In the middle of the night when the wolves come out
They head straight for your heart
They come straight for your heart
I hear them calling for you
I hear them calling for you
I keep on holding tight now
'Cause your body's telling me don't let go
We are gonna be starting up trouble
I know, I know, I know
Just getting my demons out, wouldn't ever doubt
Your beauty could start a war
As you walk in the dining room
I ain't up for debating
Ain't in it for the taking
We got the world shaking
In the middle of the night when the wolves come out
They head straight for your heart
Like a bullet in the dark
One by one, I take them down
We can run and hide, ain't goin' down without a fight
I hear them calling for you
I hear them calling for you
In the middle of the night when the wolves come out
They head straight for your heart
They come straight for your heart
I hear them calling for you
I hear them calling for you
I wish it wasn't true
But the whole world's tryin' to get a piece of you
And my heart keeps fighting in this battle of fools
Gotta make it through, gotta make it through
In the middle of the night when the wolves come out
They head straight for your heart
Like a bullet in the dark
One by one, I take them down
We can run and hide, ain't goin' down without a fight
I hear them calling for you
I hear them calling
In the middle of the night when the wolves come out
They head straight for your heart
They come straight for your heart
I hear them calling for you

Haven't changed, had much to say

Well, this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face

And if the boys wanna fight, you better let 'em

The nights are getting longer, it won't be long
Won't be long 'til summer comes
Now that the boys are here again
The boys are back in town

You, who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so, become yourself
Because the past is just a goodbye
Teach your children well
Their father's hell did slowly go by
And feed THEM on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by
Don't you ever ask THEM, "Why?"
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you
And you (Can you hear?) of tender years (And do you care?)
Can't know the fears (And can you see?)
That your elders grew by (We must be free)
And so, please help (To teach your children)
Them with your youth (What you believe in)
They seek the truth (Make a world)
Before they can die (That we can live in)
And teach your parents well
Their children's hell will slowly go by
And feed THEM on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by
Don't you ever ask them, "Why?
If they told you, you will cry
So just look at THEM and sigh
And know they love you

Well, it's one for the money two for the show
Three to get ready now go, cat, go
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Well you can do anything but
Lay OFF of my blue suede shoes
Well, you can knock me down, step in my face
Slander my name all over the place
Do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh honey, lay off of my shoes
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
Now let's go cats (oh walk the dogs)
You can burn my house, steal my car
Drink my liquor from an old fruit-jar
Do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh baby, lay off of my shoes
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
Rock it
Well, it's one for the money, two for the show
Three to get ready now go, cat, go
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Well you can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
Go cat uh
Blue, blue suede shoes oh baby
Blue, blue suede shoes uh ha
Blue, blue suede shoes oh baby
Blue, blue suede shoes
You do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes

Put on your white sombrero
Saddle your horse my dear
And ride OFF into the sunset
You'd better go
For there is no place for you here
Like and old fashioned hero
You stand before me
You think our life is a movie
My world is real
I live and feel and I can do without you
Put on your white sombrero
Your red bandana too
Think of this day as a showdown
Goodbye my friend
This is the end for me and you
Now be a bold vacquero
Don't show your feelings
I'll cry while you're disappearing
Into the night
All dressed in white unchained and free without me
Put on your white sombrero
Like all the cowboys do
Go find a sweet seńorita
Somebody meek
Who'll never speak harshly to you
You're such a cavaliero
Proud, never bending
I want someone who will take me
Just as I am
I need a man who is in rhyme
With his time
You'll never take me
Just as I am
I need a man who is in rhyme
With his time

You could have been getting down to this sick beat
My ex-man brought his new girlfriend
She's like "Oh my God", but I'm just gonna shake it
And to the fella over there with the hella good hair
Won't you come on over, baby, we can shake, shake, shake, yeah oh
'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate (haters gonna hate me)

You must be mistaken
It couldn't have been
You couldn't have seen him yesterday
He's doing some deal up in Baltimore now
I hate it, when he's away
You must be mistaken
I'm sure that you are
There's more than one car with stickers on
And lots of young guys wear corduroy pants
And I'd know if he hadn't gone
Take that look OFF your face (take that look off your face)
I can see through your smile (I can see through your smile)
You would love to be right
I bet you didn't sleep good last night
Couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door
Well, I've got news for you: I knew before
If I'm not mistaken, it started last year
I'm not very clear how it began
I noticed a change, but I just closed my eyes
As only a woman can
No, I didn't dig deep (no, I didn't dig deep)
I did not want to know (I did not want to know)
Well, you don't interfere
When you're scared of the things you might hear
When he's back, you think I will end it right there and then?
Well, my fair weather friend: you're wrong again
Take that look off your face (take that look off your face)
I can see through your smile (I can see through your smile)
You would love to be right
I bet you didn't sleep good last night
Couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door
Well, I've got news for you: I knew before

I live on an apartment on the ninety-ninth floor of my block
And I sit at home looking out the window
Imagining the world has stopped
Then in flies a guy who's all dressed up just like a Union Jack
And says, "I've won five pounds if I have his kind of detergent pack"
I said, "Hey, you, get OFF of my cloud
Hey, you, get off of my cloud
Hey, you, get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud, baby"
The telephone is ringing
I say, "Hi, it's me, who is it there on the line?"
A voice says, "Hi, hello, how are you?"
"Well, I guess I'm doin' fine"
He says, "It's three A.M., there's too much noise
Don't you people ever wanna go to bed?
Because you feel so good
Do you have to drive me out of my head?"
I said, "Hey, you, get off of my cloud
Hey, you, get off of my cloud
Hey, you, get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud, baby"
I was sick and tired, fed up with this
And decided to take a drive downtown
It was so very quiet and peaceful
There was nobody, not a soul around
I laid myself out, I was so tired
And I started to dream
In the morning the parking tickets were just like flags
Stuck on my windscreen
I said, "Hey, you, get off of my cloud
Hey, you, get off of my cloud
Hey, you, get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud"
Hey, you, get off of my cloud
Hey, you, get off of my cloud
Hey, you, get off of my cloud
Don't hang around baby two's a crowd
On my cloud
Hey, you
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW!!!

PARADISE BOY:
I remember every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake
And there was not another car in sight
And I never had a girl
Looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school
They were wishing they were me that night
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon! Hold on tight!
C'mon! Hold on tight!
Thought it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
GIRL:
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
'Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely dressed
Ain't no doubt about it
Baby got to go and shout it
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
BOY:
'Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely dressed
Baby doncha hear my heart
You got it drowning out the radio
I've been waiting so long
For you to come along and have some fun
And I gotta let you know
No you're never gonna regret it
So open up your eyes I got a big surprise
It'll feel all right
Well I wanna make your motor run
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon! Hold on tight!
C'mon! Hold on tight!
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
Paradise by the dashboard light
You got to do what you can
And let Mother Nature do the rest
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
'Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely-
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night...
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night...
RADIO BROADCAST
OK, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here,
Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth,
There's the windup, and there it is, a line shot up the middle,
Look at him go. This boy can really fly! He's rounding first and really
turning it on now, he's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for
second; the ball is bobbled out in center, and here comes the
throw, and what a throw! He's gonna slide in head first, here he
comes, he's out! No, wait, safe-safe at second base, this kid
really makes things happen out there. Batter steps up to the
plate, here's the pitch-he's going, and what a jump he's got,
he's trying for third, here's the throw, it's in the dirt-safe at
third! Holy cow, stolen base! He's taking a pretty big lead out
there, almost daring him to try and pick him OFF. The pitcher
glances over, winds up, and it's bunted, bunted down the third
base line, the suicide squeeze is on! Here he comes, squeeze
play, it's gonna be close, holy cow, I think he's gonna make it!
II. LET ME SLEEP ON IT
GIRL:
Stop right there!
I gotta know right now!
Before we go any further!
Do you love me?
Will you love me forever?
Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
Do you love me!?
Will you love me forever!?
Do you need me!?
Will you never leave me!?
Will you make me happy for the rest of my life!?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife!?
I gotta know right now
Before we go any further
Do you love me!?
Will you love me forever!?
BOY:
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you an answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you an answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you an answer in the morning
GIRL:
I gotta know right now
Do you love me?

GIRL:
Will you love me forever?
BOY:
Let me sleep on it
GIRL:
Will you love me forever!!!!
III. PRAYING FOR THE END OF TIME
I couldn't take it any longer
Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god and on my mother's grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore that I would love you to the end of time!
So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time
It's all that I can do
Praying for the end of time,
So I can end my time with you!!
BOY:
It was long ago and it was far away
And it was so much better that it is today
GIRL:
It never felt so good
It never felt so right
And we were glowing like
A metal on the edge of a knife
It is a hornet swarming around
Your political correct world is incorrect, I've found
An angry young man is what I became
The day that you got full of yourself and now only you're to blame
Push, push me on off of the ledge
I'm standin' with my toes hangin' over the edge
Not worried 'bout a push comin' down from above
I'm ready for you
Look in my hands it's not what it seems
Touch my hands I been around touch the man
Touch the fist that can shatter your dreams
Push, push me on off of the ledge
I'm standin' with my toes hangin' over the edge
Not worried 'bout a push comin' down from above
I'm ready for you
Push, push me on off of the ledge
I'm standin' with my toes hangin' over the edge
Not worried 'bout a push comin' down from above
I'm ready for you when push comes to shove
Push, push me on off of the ledge
I'm standin' with my toes hangin' over the edge
Not worried 'bout a push comin' down from above
I'm ready for you
Push, I.m on the ledge
I'm standin' with my toes hangin' over the edge
Not worried about a push comin' down from above
I'm ready for you when push comes to shove

If I never feel you in my arms again
If I never feel your tender kiss again
If I never hear "I love you" now and then
Will I never make love to you once again?
Please understand, if love ends
Then I promise you, I promise you that
That I shall never breathe again (Breathe again, breathe again)
That I shall never breathe again (Breathe again)
And I can't stop thinking about
About the way things used to be
And I can't stop thinking about
About the love that you made to me
And I can't get you out of my head
How in the world will I begin
To let you walk right out my life
And blow my heart away?
And I can't stop caring about
About the apple of my eye
And I can't stop doing without
Without the center of my life
And I can't get you out of my head
And I know I can't pretend
That I won't die if you decide
You won't see me again
If I never feel you in my arms again (Again)
If I never feel your tender kiss again (Again)
If I never hear "I love you" now and then (And then)
Will I never make love to you once again?
Please understand, if love ends
Then I promise you, I promise you that
That I shall never breathe again (Breathe again, breathe again)
That I shall never breathe again (Breathe again)
And I can't stop thinking about
About the way my life would be
No, I can't stop thinking about
How could you love me then leave?
And I can't get you out of my mind
God knows how hard I've tried
And if you walk right out my life
God knows I'd surely die
And I can't stop doing without
Without the rhythm of my heart
No, I can't stop doing without
For I would surely fall apart
And I can't get you out of my mind
'Cause I know I can't deny it
And I would die if you decide
You won't see me again
If I never feel you in my arms again (If I never ever see you)
If I never feel your tender kiss again (No, no)
If I never hear "I love you" now and then (Now and then)
Will I never make love to you once again?
Please understand, if love ends (If it should ever end)
Then I promise you, I promise you that
That I shall never breathe again (Breathe again, breathe again)
That I shall never breathe again (Breathe again)
That I shall never breathe again (Breathe again, breathe again)
That I shall never breathe again (Breathe again)

Ughhh.Ughh. sorry for the double post. My phone has a mind of its own
only registered users can see external links
Don't blame me just because I am bored
I'm needy, I need to taste it all
Don't doubt me just because I am quiet
I'm thinking, thinking about it all
I'm helpless about the way of me
I'm thinking, thinking about it all
I'm sorting everything inside
I'm looking in the space
This time, this void
I'm making my way through the muddy minutes
The pull is in my muscle
The ache is in my bones
It's hard to be alone
BREATHE, breathe, it won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
See through me when I put up a fight
Like you to see the things I hide
Go deeper than I will let you know
I'm frightened but I won't let it show
I'm helpless (I'm helpless) about the way of me
I'm thinking (I'm thinking), thinking about it all
I'm sorting everything inside
I'm looking in the space
This time, this void
I'm making my way through the muddy minutes
The pull is in my muscle
The ache is in my bones (bones)
It's hard to be alone (to be alone)
Breathe, breathe, it won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe, it won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe
It won't be long now, breathe, breathe

All my time has run out
Ain't a game to me now
It's getting cold
And I'm tired
In the race I'm the only runner
And the wind there is doubt
Hear me
Hear me
I'm at this deadend street on my knees
And I'm trying so hard to believe
I'm not too blind to see
These words in front of me
One two three breathe
Breathe breathe
I don't know when don't know how
But this one small step's good for now
This ain't my curtain call
I can break down this wall
One two three breathe
One two three breathe
Another blow to my pride
I'm nearly empty inside
Put my fists in the air
In the ring I'm the only fighter
Is this life worth the fight?
Hear me hear me
I'm at this deadend street on my knees
And I'm trying so hard to believe
I'm not too proud to see
These words in front of me
One two three breathe
Breathe breathe
I don't know when don't know how
But this one small step's good for now
This ain't my curtain call
I can break down this wall
One two three breathe
One two three breathe
All the blood and the sweat and the tears and the pain I carry on
These scars are my right
Heal me heal me
I'm at this deadend street on my knees
And I'm trying so hard to believe
I'm not too proud to see these words in front of me
One two three breathe
Breathe breathe
I don't know where don't know how
And this one small step's good for now
This ain't my curtain call
I can break down this wall
One two three breathe
Breathe
One two three breathe

If I could make a wish
I think I'd pass
Can't think of anythin' I need
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound
Nothing to eat, no books to read
Making love with you
Has left me peaceful, warm, and tired
What more could I ask
There's nothing left to be desired
Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel
Go to sleep
Sometimes, all I need is the air that I BREATHE
And to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Yes, to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Peace came upon me
And it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel
Go to sleep
Sometimes, all I need is the air that I breathe
And to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Yes, to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Sometimes, all I need is the air that I breathe
And to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Yes, to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
And to love you
Stop, Stop, Stop - The Hollies

See the girl with cymbals on her fingers
Entering through the door
Ruby glistening from her navel
Shimmering around the floor
Bells on feet go ting a-ling a-linging
Going through my head
Sweat is falling just-a-like-a tear drops
Running from her head
Now she's dancing, going through the movements
Swaying to and fro
Body moving, bringing back a memory
Thoughts of long ago
Blood is rushing, temperature is rising
Sweating from my brow
Like a snake, her body fascinates me
I can't look away now
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to BREATHE
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I'll have to leave
Now, she's moving all around the tables
Luring all in sight
But I know that she cannot see me
Hidden by the light
Closer, closer, she is getting nearer
Soon she'll be in reach
As I enter into a spotlight
She stands lost for speech
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I'll have to leave
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I'll have to leave
Now I hold her, people are staring
Don't know what to think
And we struggle knocking over tables
Spilling all the drinks
Can't they understand that I want her?
Happens every week
Heavy hand upon my collar
Throws me in the street
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I'll have to leave
Wake from your sleep
The drying of your tears
Today, we escape
We escape
Pack and get dressed
Before your father hears us
Before all hell breaks loose
Breathe, keep breathing
Don't lose your nerve
Breathe, keep breathing
I can't do this alone
Sing us a song
A song to keep us warm
There's such a chill
Such a chill
You can laugh
A spineless laugh
We hope your rules and wisdom choke you
Now we are one in everlasting peace
We hope that you choke, that you choke
We hope that you choke, that you choke
We hope that you choke, that you choke
I see love and beauty all around, I also see the sadness that's embedded in your frown
I wonder why you choose not to talk to those who surround, I sense a fear of lifting heavy feet
Higher than you want to, I just want to believe your truth...
You stand there but you do not cast a shadow, you walk away with every word you choose not to say
I suppose that moving on paints a new colour for each day, I don't like to see
Dreams put on the shelf, to deal with on that one day, I just want to be happy for you
'Cause I only have one second, this minute today
I can't press rewind and turn it back and call it now
And so this moment, I just have to sing out loud
And say I love I like and breathe in now
And say I love I live and breathe in now
I move on holding on to what I learn, it's time to let go of the notion
That the whole world's against me
Break free of shackles that formed young, time free in now
And now I know, it's not all up to me, I can count on another
So move on lighter and be free ...
'Cause I only have one second, this minute today
I can't press rewind and turn it back and call it now
And so this moment, I just have to sing out loud
And say I love I like and breathe in now
And say I love I live and breathe in now
I believe in for today I just want to know that you're okay
Cause I believe in breathing just for today
I just want to know that you're okay...
'Cause I only have one second, this minute today
I can't press rewind and turn it back and call it now
And so this moment, I just have to sing out loud
And say I love I like and breathe in now
And say I love I live and breathe in now
And say I love I live and breathe in now
