10,000 Maniacs--
These are the days that we'll remember (These Are The Days)
Apple, Fiona--
I've acquired quite a taste/For a well-made mistake/...I'm always doing what I think I
should (A Mistake)
I've been a bad, bad girl/Oh, I've been careless with an innocent man/And its a sad, sad
world/When a girl will break a boy, just because she can/...Heaven help me for the way
I am/Save me from these evil deeds before I get them done/I know tomorrow brings the
consequence at hand/But I keep living this day like the next will never come* (Criminal)
You fondle my trigger then you blame my gun (Limp)
It's true/I do imbue my blue unto myself * (On The Bound)
And there's too much going on/But it's calm under the waves/In the blue of my oblivion/
...Is that why they call me a sullen girl?/A sullen girl?/They don't know I used to sail
the deep and tranquil sea/But he washed me ashore and he took my pearl/And left an empty
shell of me (Sullen Girl)
Barenaked Ladies--
If I had a million dollars/We wouldn't have to eat Kraft dinner - (but we would!) ($1,000,000)
I thought that alcohol was just for those with nothing else to do/I thought that
drinking just to get drunk was a waste of precious booze/But now I know that there's a
time and there's a place where I can choose/
To walk the fine line between self control and self abuse (Alcohol)
And you said:/What'd you think that I was gonna do/Curl up and die just because of you?/
I'm not that weak you know/What'd you think that I was gonna do/Try to make you love me
more than I love you?/How could you be so low?/You arrogant man/What do you think that I
am?/My heart will be fine/Just stop wasting my time (Break Your Heart)
I think it's getting to the point where I can be myself again/I think it's getting to
the point where we have almost made amends/I think it's the getting to the point that is
the hardest part/...You think I only think about you when we're both in the same room/
You think I'm only here to witness the remains of love exhumed/You think we're here to
play a game of who loves more than whom (Call and Answer)
It's time to kick off your shoes/Learn how to choose sadness/It's time to throw off
those chains/Addle our brains with madness/'Cause we've got plenty of time/To grow old
and die/But when at last your beauty's faded/You'll be glad that I have waited for you
(I'll Be That Girl)
You get your PhD./How happy you will be/When you get a job at Wendy's and are honored
with Employee of the Month (Never Is Enough)
On an evening such as this/It's hard to tell if I exist (Pinch Me)
Beatles--
When you were young and your heart was an open book/You used to say live and let live/
You know you did, you know you did, you know you did/But in this ever changing world in
which we live in/That makes you give in and cry/Say live and let die (Live and Let Die)
Ben Folds Five--
Do you not hear me anymore/I know it's not your thing to care/I know it's cool to be so
bored/But it sucks me in when you're aloof/It sucks me in, it sucks it works/I guess it's
cool to be so alone/Will you never rest?/Fighting the Battle of Who Could Care Less
(Battle of Who Could Care Less)
Now that I have found someone/I'm feeling more alone that I ever have before (Brick)
September 75/I was 47 inches high/Mom said someday I would have a badass mother GI Joe/
For your little minds to blow/I still got beat up after class/Now I'm big and important/
One angry dwarf and 200 solemn faces are you/If you really want to see me/Check your
papers and the TV/Look who's telling who what to do/Kiss my ass - Goodbye (One Angry
Dwarf and 200 Solemn Faces)
Brooks, Garth--
You know a dream is like a river/Ever changing as it flows/And the dreamer's just a vessel/That must follow where it goes/Trying to learn from what's behind you/And never knowing what's in store/Makes each day a constant battle/Just to stay between the shores (The River)
Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers/Remember when you're talking to the man
upstairs/And just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care/Some of God's
greatest gifts are unanswered prayers (Unanswered Prayers)
Channing, Stockard (Original Grease cast)--
There are worse things I could do/Than go with a boy or two/Even though the neighborhood
thinks I'm trashy and no good/I suppose it could be true/That there are worse things I
could do/I could stay home every night/Wait around for Mr. Right/Take cold showers every
day/And throw my life away/On a dream that won't come true (There Are Worse Things I
Could Do)
Club Nouveau--
Lean on me when you're not strong/Cause I'll be your friend, I'll help you carry on/
For, it won't be long/Til I'm going to need somebody to lean on (Lean On Me)
Counting Crows--
She knows she's more than just a little misunderstood/She has trouble acting normal
when she's nervous* (Round Here)
Danger, Harvey--
I've been around the world and found that only stupid people are breeding/The creatins
cloning and feeding/And I don't even own a TV (Flagpole Sitter)
Dave Matthews Band--
He wakes up in the morning/Does his teeth, bite to eat and he's rolling/Never changes a
thing/The week ends, the week begins (Ants Marching)
Sweet like candy to my soul/Sweet you rock and sweet you roll/Lost for you, I'm so lost
for you...(Crash)
See, you and me have a better time than most can dream/Have it better than the best so
can pull on through/Whatever tears at us, whatever holds us down/And if nothing can be
done, we'll make the best of what's around/Turns out not where but who you're with that
really matters (The Best of What's Around)
Celebrate we will/Cause life is short but sweet for certain/...You quench my heart and
you quench my mind (Two Step)
It's a typical situation in these typical times/...Why are you different/Why are you
that way?/If you don't get in line/We'll lock you away (Typical Situation)
DiFranco, Ani--
My country tis of thee/To take swings at each other on the talkshow TV ('Tis of Thee)
Next to the glass ashtray/In a little plastic baggie/Is a bitter rock remedy/Really good
stuff/But I take offense to the fact/That you're so hell bent/Are you trying to tell me
this world/Just isn't beautiful enough? (Come Away From It)
Dixie Chicks--
There is no good reason I should have to be so alone/I'm smothered by this emptiness/
Lord I wish I was made of stone/Like a fool I lead my soul to love/And he paid me back
in change/God help me, am I the only one who's ever felt this way? (Am I The Only One)
I'm taking my turn on the sin wagon (Sin Wagon)
Doors--
Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name (Hello, I Love You)
Dylan, Bob
And the times, they are a'changing (The Times They Are A'Changing)
Eminem
Sometimes I want to get on TV and just let loose/But I can't/(But it's cool for Tom Green
to hump a dead moose)/...I'm like a head trip to listen to/Cause I'm only giving you things that you joke about with your friends inside your living room/The only difference is I got the balls to say it/In front of ya'll/And I don't gotta be false and sugar coat it at all
Eve 6--
Wanna put my tender/Heart in a blender?/Watch it spin around to a beautiful oblivion
(Inside Out)
Fitzgerald, Ella--
There's a saying old/says that love is blind/Still were often told/seek and ye shall find/So I'm going to seek a certain lad/I've had,in mind/Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet/He's a big affair, I cannot forget/Only man I ever think of with regret/I'd like to add his initial to my monogram/Tell me "Where is the sheppard for this lost lamb?"/ (Someone to Watch Over Me)
Franklin, Aretha--
People say I'm the life of a party/Because I tell a joke or two/Well although I may be
laughing loud and hearty/Deep inside I'm blue/So take a good look at my face/You'll see
that my smile seems out of place/And if you look closer it's easy to trace/The tracks of
my tears (Tracks of My Tears)
Gaynor, Gloria--
I should have changed that stupid lock/I should have made you leave your keys/But now
I'm saving all my loving/For someone who's loving me/Whoa - now go/Walk out the door/
Don't turn around now/Cause you're not welcome anymore...*(I Will Survive)
Greenday--
I was all by myself/I was all by myself/No one was looking/I was thinking of you
(Hidden Track)
Garbage--
I'm only happy when it rains/I'm only happy when it's complicated (I'm Only Happy When
It Rains)
Guns 'N Roses--
I know it's hard to keep an open heart/When even friends seem out to harm you/But if you
could heal a broken heart/Wouldn't time be out to charm you (November Rain)
She's got a smile that it seems to me/Reminds me of childhood memories/Where everything
was as fresh as a bright blue sky/Now and then when I see her face/She takes me away to
that special place/And if I stared too long/I'd probably break down and cry (Sweet
Child 'O Mine)
Hanson--
Sitting on the side/Waiting for a sign/Hoping that my luck will change/Reaching for a
hand/That will understand/Someone who feels the same/When you live in a cookie cutter
world/Being different is a sin/So you don't stand out/But you don't fit in (Weird)
Harris, Emmy Lou
If you knew how lonely my life has been/And how low I've felt for so long/If you knew
how I wanted someone to come along/And change my life the way you've done/Feels like
home to me, feels like home to me/Feels like I'm on the way back where I've come from/
Feels like home to me, feels like home to me/Feels like I'm on the way back where I
belong (Feels Like Home)
Hill, Lauryn--
Everything is everything/What is meant to be will be/After winter, must come spring/
Change, it comes eventually/...It seems we lose the game/Before we even start to play/
Who made these rules/We're so confused (Everything is Everything)
No matter how I think we grow/You always seem to let me know/It ain't working, It ain't
working/And when I try to walk away/You'd hurt yourself to make me stay/This is crazy,
this is crazy (Ex-Factor)
Now, now how come your talk turn cold/Gained the whole world for the price of your soul/Wisdom is better than silver and gold/...Consequence is no coincidence/Hypocrites always want to play innocent/...Now don't you understand man's universal law/What you throw out comes back to you, star/Never underestimate those who you scar/Cause karma, karma, karma comes back to you hard/...Until you do right, all you do will go wrong (Lost Ones)
See, I thought this feeling/it was all that I had/But how could this be love/and make me feel so bad/Gave up my power/I existed for you/But who ever know the voodoo you'd do?/ (When It Hurts So Bad)
Torn and confused, wasted and used/Reached the crossroads which path would I choose?/Stuck and frustrated I waited, debated/For something to happen that just wasn't fated/...Misled, I bled til the poison was gone/And out of the darkness arrived the sweet dawn/...Father, you saved me and showed me that life/Was much more than being some foolish man's wife/Showed me that love was respect and devotion/Greater than planets, deeper than oceans/ (I Used to Love Him)
Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those that trespass against us/Although them again we will never, never, never trust/...Beware the false motives of others/Be careful of those who pretend to be brothers/And you never suppose it's those who are closest to you/They say all the right things to gain their position/Then use your kindness as ammunition/To shoot you down in the name of ambition/...Like Cain and Abel/Caesar and Brutus/Jesus and Judas/Backstabbers do this/...It took me a little while to discover/Wolves in sheep coats who pretend to be lovers/ (Forgive Them Father)
Unsure of what the balance held/I touched my belly overwhelmed/by what I had been chosen to perform/But then an angel came one day/Told me to kneel down and pray/For unto me a man child would be born/Woe this crazy circumstance/I knew his life deserved a chance/But everybody told me to be smart/Look at your career they said/Lauryn, baby, use your head/But instead I chose to use my heart/...Now let me pray to keep you from/The perils that will shrely come/See life for you my prince has just begun/ (To Zion)
The second verse is dedicated to the men/That's more concerned with his rims and his Timbs than his women/They facing a court case/When the child support's late/Money taking, heart-breaking/Now you wonder why women hate men/The sneaky silent men/The punk domestic violence men/The quick to shoot the semen/Stop acting like boys and be men/ (Doo Wop)
Houston, Whitney--
Everybody'e searching for a hero/People need someone to look up to/I never found anyone
who fulfilled my needs/A lonely place to be/And so I learned to depend on me (Greatest
Love of All)
Ian, Janis--
I learned the truth at seventeen/That love is meant for beauty queens* (At Seventeen)
Indigo Girls--
I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind/Got my paper and I was free
(Closer To Fine)
Some long again when we were taught/That for whatever kind of puzzle you got/You just
stick the right formula in/A solution for every fool (Least Complicated)
INXS--
I, I was standing/You were there/Two worlds collided/And they will never tear us apart
Jewel--
So we pray to as many different gods as there are flowers/We call religion our friend/
So worried about saving our souls/Afraid that God will take His toll/That we forget to
begin/...There are addictions to feed and there are mouths to pay (Who Will Save Your
Soul)
Picked up a paper/It was more bad news/More hearts being broken/Or people being used
(You Were Meant For Me)
Joel, Billy--
Some things were perfectly clear/Seen with the vision of youth/No doubts and nothing to
fear/I claimed the corner on truth/These days it's harder to say I know what I'm
fighting for/My faith is falling away, I'm not that sure anymore/Shades of grey wherever
I go/The more I find out, the less that I know/Black and white is how it should be/But
shades of grey are the colors I see/...Now with the wisdom of years, I try to reason
things out/And the only people I fear are those who never have doubts/Save us all from
arrogant men, and all the causes they're for/I won't be righteous again, I'm not that
sure anymore (Shades of Grey)
We all have a face/That we hide away forever/And we take them out and show ourselves/
When everyone has gone (The Stranger)
Joplin, Janis--
I need a man to love/Don't you understand me baby/Oh I, I need a man to love/...I gotta
find him, I gotta have him/Like the air I breathe/One loving man, to understand/Can't be
too much to need/Can't be now, can't be now, can't be now, can't be now, can't be now,
can't be just lonliness/Baby, it's wrong
Kid Rock--
Ive been sitting here/Trying to find myself/I get behind myself/I need to rewind myself/
Looking for the payback/Listen for the play back/They say that every man bleeds just
like me/...I said it too many times and I still stand firm/You get what you put in and
people get what they deserve (Only God Knows Why)
Mann, Aimee--
It's not/what you though/when you first began it/You've got/what you want/now you can
hardly stand it (Wise Up)
Marshall, Amanda--
Fate has a way of changing/Just when you don't want it to/...Life passes so quickly/Gotta take the time/Or you'll miss what really matters/You'll miss all the signs/
...I won't give up, I won't give in/I can't recreate what just might have been/I know
that my heart will find love again/Now is the time to begin (I'll Be Okay)
Matchbox Twenty--
Can you help me I'm bent/ I'm so scared that I'll never/Get put back together (Bent)
McCain, Edwin--
Have you given up on passion, living day to day/You keep you dreams locked down inside?/
Choking on a lifetime of never take a chance/Don't wake up one day wishing you tried?/
It ain't about the money, it ain't about the time/It ain't about the love you lost, or
the things you think you left behind/It ain't about your losing streak, makes you feel
like you're falling apart/What matters is your heart (What Matters)
McLaughlin, Sarah--
Spend all your time waiting/For that second chance/For the break that would make it OK/
There's always some reason/To feel not good enough/And it's hard at the end of the day/
I need some distraction/Oh a beautiful release/Memories seep thru my veins/Then maybe
empty/Oh weightless, then maybe/We'll find some peace tonight/In the arms of the
angels/Far away from here/From this stark cold hotel room/And the endless nights that
you feel/You are pulled from the wreckage/Of your silent reveries/You're in the arms of
the angels/May you find/Some comfort here (Angel)
Meatloaf--
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere (Good Girls Go To Heaven)
Morissette, Alanis--
What I wouldn't give to find a soulmate/Someone else to catch this drift
(All I Really Want)
I'm sad but I'm laughing/I'm brave but I'm chicken shit/...What it all boils down to/
Is that no one's got it figured out just yet* (Hand In My Pocket)
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly/He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye/
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight/And as the plane crashed down he
thought "Well, isn't this nice..." (Ironic)
You live you learn/You love you learn/You cry you learn/You lose you learn/You bleed you
learn/You bleed you learn/You scream you learn/You grieve you learn/You choke you learn/
You laugh you learn/You choose you learn/You pray you learn/You pray you learn/You ask
you learn/You live you learn (You Learn)
And everytime I scratch my nails down someone else's back I hope you feel it/Oh, can you
feel it? (You Oughta Know)

Everybody hurts/Take comfort in your friends (Everybody Hurts)
I save your messages just to hear your voice/You always say your name like I wouldn't know it's you (At My Most Beautiful)
Raitt, Bonnie--
People are talking/Talking 'bout people/I hear them whisper/You won't believe it/
They think we're lovers/Kept under cover/I just ignore/But they keep saying we/
Laugh just a little too loud/Stand just a little too close/Stare just a little too long/
Maybe they're seeing/Something we don't, darling (Something To Talk About)
Red Hot Chili Peppers--
I like pleasure spiked with pain/And music is my aeroplane (Aeroplane)
Rogers, Kenny--
The Gatlin boys just laughed at him when he walked into the bar room/One of them got up
and met him half way cross the floor/When Tommy turned around they said "Hey look, Old
Yella's leaving"/But you could of heard a pin drop when Tommy stopped and locked the door/
...20 years of crawling was bottled up inside of him/He wasn't holding nothing back, he
let them have it all/When Tommy left the bar room, not a Gatlin boy was standing/He said
"This one's for Becky" as he watched the last one fall (Coward Of The County)
Rolling Stones--
You can't always get what you want/No, you can't always get what you want/You can't
always get what you want/But if you try sometimes/You just might find/You get what you
need (You Can't Always Get What You Want)
Sinatra, Frank--
I have got you under my skin/I've got you deep in the heart of me/So deep in my heart
you're always a part of me/I've got you under my skin (Under My Skin)
Taylor, James--
I've seen fire and I've seen rain/I've seen sunny days and I thought they'd never end/
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend/But I always thought I'd see you
again (Fire and Rain)
You can play the game/You can act out the part/Thou you know it wasn't written for you/
Tell me how you stand there with your broken heart/Ashamed of playing the fool/...Shower
the people you love with love/Show them they way that you feel/Things are gonna be much
better if we only will (Shower The People)
Train--
Well, she wants to be the queen/Then she thinks about her scene/She pulls her hair back
as she screams/I don't really want to be the queen/Well, she wants to live her life/
Then she thinks about her life/Pulls her hair back as she screams/I don't really want
to live this life (Meet Virginia)
Turner, Tina and Ike--
You know, every now and then I think you might want to hear something from us nice and
easy/But there's just one thing see/We never do nothing nice and easy/We do it nice and
rough/That's the way we do Proud Mary.../Never lost one minute of sleepin/Worryin 'bout
the way things might have been (Proud Mary)
U2--
Under a blood red sky/A crowd has gathered in black and white/Arms entwined, the chosen
few/...So they say this is the golden age/But gold is the reason for the war we wage/
(New Year's Day)
I walk into a window to see myself/And my reflection/When I thought about it/My direction/Going nowhere, going nowhere/No one...no one is blinder/Than he who will not see/No one...no one is blinder/Than me (I Threw A Brick Threw A Window)
I can't change the world/But I can change the world in me/If I rejoice/ (Rejoice)
And the battle's just begun/There's many lost, but tell me who has won/...
And it's true we are immune/When fact is fiction and TV reality/ (Sunday, Bloody
Sunday)
I don't know/I don't know which side I'm on/I don't know my right from left/Or my right
from wrong/Say I'm a fool/You say I'm nothing/But if I'm a fool for you/Oh, that's
something/ (Two Hearts Beat As One)
You love this town/Even if that doesn't ring true/You've been all over/And it's been all
over you (Beautiful Day)
And you are such a fool/To worry like you do/I know it's tough/And you can never get
enough/Of what you don't really need now.../ (Stuck In A Moment)
At the corner of your lips/As the orbit of your hips/Eclipse/You elevate my..........SOUL!/
(Elevation)
And love is not the easy thing/The only baggage that you can bring/Is all that you can't
leave behind/...And if your glass heart should crack/And for a second you turn back/ Oh
no, be strong/Walk on/...And I know it aches/How your heart it breaks/You can only take
so much/Walk on/ (Walk On)
Who's to say where the wind will take you/Who's to say what it is will break you/I don't
know/Where the wind will blow/Who's to know when the time has come around/I don't want
to see you cry/I know that this is not goodbye/Did I waste it/Not so much I couldn't
taste it/Life should be fragrant/ (Kite)
They say that what you mock/Will surely overtake you/And you become a monster/So the
monster will not break you/And it's already gone too far/Who said that if you go in
hard/You won't get hurt/Jesus can you take the time/To throw a drowning man a line
(Peace On Earth)
Take the colours of my imagination/Take the scent hanging in the air/Take this tangle of
a conversation/And turn it into your own prayer/With my fingers as you want them/With my
nails under your hide/With my teeth at your back/And my tongue to tell you the sweetest
lies/Do you feel loved?/ (Do You Feel Loved)
Mother...am I still your son/You know I've waited for so long/To hear you say so/Mother...
you left and made me someone/Now I'm still a child/And no one tells me no/...Looking for a sound that's going to drown out the world/Looking for the father of my two little girls (Mofo)
Nobody else here baby/No one here to blame/No one to point the finger/It's just you and
me and the rain/...It's the blind leading the blond/ (If God Would Send His Angels)
Afraid of what you'd find/If you took a look inside/ (Staring At The Sun)
She feels the ground is giving way/But she thinks we're better off that way/The more you
take, the less you feel/The more you know, the less you believe/The more you have the more it takes today/...She's living, living next week now/You know she's going to pay it back somehow/ (Last Night On Earth)
You wanted to get somewhere so badly/You had to lose yourself along the way/...You're
taking steps that make you feel dizzy/Then you learn to like the way it feels/You hurt
yourself you hurt your lover/Then you discover/What you thought was freedom is just
greed/ (Gone)
Tonight the moon is playing tricks again/I'm feeling sea sick again/The whole world
could just dissolve/Into a glass of water/...Tonight the moon is a mirrorball/Light
flickers from across the hall/Who'll catch the star when it falls? (If You Wear That
Velvet Dress)
So you never felt alive/Until you'd almost wasted away/ (Please)
Jesus, Jesus help me/I'm alone in this world/And a fucked up world it is, too/...Jesus/
I'm waiting here boss/I know you're looking out for us/But maybe your hands aren't free/
Your father/He made the world in seven/He's in charge of heaven/Will you put in a word
in for me? (Wake Up Dead Man)
Early morning/April 4th/A shot rings out in the Memphis sky/"Free at last"/They took your life/But they could not take your pride/ (In The Name Of Love)
Oh don't sorrow/No don't weep/For tonight at last/I am coming home (Homecoming)
Carnival/The wheels fly and the colors spin/Through alcohol/Red wine that punctures the
skin (Unforgettable Fire)
I have spoke with the tongue of angels/I have held the hand of a devil/It was warm in
the night/I was cold as a stone (I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For)
Sleight of hand and twist of fate/On a bed of nails she makes me wait/ (With or Without You)
Plant a demon seed/You raise a flower of fire/ (Bullet the Blue Sky)
We're wounded by fear/Injured by doubt/I can lose myself/You I can't live without/Because you keep me holding on/ (Red Hill Mining Town)
We need new dreams tonight/...Everyday the dreamers die/To see what's on the other side/ (In God's Country)
Where poets speak their hearts/Then bleed for it/ (One Tree Hill)
You know he got the cure/But then he went astray/He used to stay awake/To drive the dreams he had away/He wanted to believe/In the hands of love.../ (Exit)
So many more lyrics that I'll have to finish this section when I have more time! :)
Vertical Horizon--
He's everything you want/He is everything you need/He is everything inside of you/That
you wish you could be/He says all the right things/At exactly the right times/But he
means nothing to you/And you don't know why (Everything You Want)
Verve Pipe--
Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony - that's life/...Well, I've never prayed but tonight
I'm on my knees, yeah/I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah/I
let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel freaked out/But the airwave are
clean and there's nobody singing to me now (Bitter Sweet Symphony)
When I was young I knew everything...(Freshman)
Womack, LeeAnn--
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder/Get your fill to eat, but never lose that
hunger/Never take one single breath for granted/God forbid, love ever leave you empty
handed/I hope you still feel small as you stand beside the ocean/Whenever one door
closes, I hope one door opens/Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance/And
when you get the choice to sit it out or dance/I hope you dance/...I hope you never fear
those mountains in the distance/Never settle for the path of least resistance/Living
might mean taking chances, but there worth taking/Loving might be a mistake, but it's
worth making/Don't let some helping heart leave you bitter/When you come close to
selling out, reconsider/Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance/And when
you get the choice to sit it out or dance/I hope you dance (I Hope You Dance)
