What I want
What I need
I wanna' wind you up and bring you up to speed
While you were talking, and I didn't hear what you said
I had a vision of myself, and I was flying out of bed
I love you, but I'm sleepwalking
For now, why don't you quit talking?
I love you, but I've hit the wall
And I'm not at all myself today
What I want
What I need
I want to wind you up and bring you up to speed
I need passion, can't buy a thrill
But I had dreams last night that I was Cecille B. DeMille
I love you, but I'm sleepwalking
For now, why don't you quit talking?
I love you, but I've hit the wall
And I'm not at all myself today
I'm walking in my sleep...
-- Meg Hentges, "Sleepwalking"

It’s a long way back where I've fallen down
It’s a very hard fall, it’s a very cruel town
And my dress is torn, and I got no jewels
And I’m hungry for, life a little less cruel
Some dignity, and not too much sorrow
just a little bit of hope
oh after tomorrow
And I don’t care what it takes my friends
I’ll never go hungry, go hungry again
Oh and I don’t care what I have do defend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
It’s a long ride home, and my head is bowed
And you’re no comfort to me now
And it’s fully loaded, and it’s set on stun
At least I know that I have won
And my wigs on crooked
And I got no shoes
I rock back and forth and I wait for you
oh I don’t care what it takes my friends
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
Oh and I don’t care what I have to pretend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
And out of it all, I have survived
From the fires of hell, I am alive
Cities crush your spirit
Survive this mess you’ve made
god can you hear us?
your my salvation day (?)
And it’s time for me to take a stand
And it’s time for me, yeah, to be a maaaaaannnn
I don’t care what it takes my friends
I will never go hungry again, go hungry again
Oh and I don’t care what I have to pretend
I will never go hungry again, go hungry again
And the phoenix she rises
She is sure to descend
She will never hungry, go hungry again
And you’re looking to me more and more like a godsend
We will never go hungry, go hungry again
And we owe each other nothin
There’s no one left here to offend
We will never go hungry
Go hungry agaiiiin.

<font face="chalkboard">"Well I ain't afraid of dyin', it's the thought of being dead
I wanna go on being me once my eulogy's been read
Don't spread my ashes out to sea, don't lay me down to rest
You can put my mind at ease if you fulfill my last request
Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die
Lord, I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna go tonight
Fill my boots up with sand, put a stiff drink in my hand
Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die
Just let my headstone be a neon sign
Let it burn in mem'ry of all of my good times
Fix me up with a manequin, just remember I like blondes
I'll be the life of the party even when I'm dead and gone
Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die
Lord, I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna go tonight
Fill my boots up with sand, put a stiff drink in my hand
Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die
Just make your next selection and while your still in line
You can pay you last respects one quarter at a time
Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die
Lord, I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna go tonight
Fill my boots up with sand, put a stiff drink in my hand
Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die
Oh, prop me up beside the jukebox if I die"

I sat down at the counter, with my menu in my hand,
When I saw what was behind it, I hit a grand slam
I saw my milk shakin momma
Saw my soda jerkin baby
I saw the girl that keeps the ice cream
And I just had to scream for her
She said"what will you have sir" and "what flavor would you like"?
And just the way she said it got me higher than a kite
Raspberry strawberry lemon or fudge
Even some spumoni couldn't make me budge
Marishino cherry, sittin on top
Bananas and some whipped cream couldn't get me from that shop
And then I had a root beer
As I paid my check I wondered if'n she'd ever call me dear
She's the girl that keeps the ice cream
And I just had to scream for her
Luckily I hung around until she got off work
Later we got married and had a bunch of little jerks
That's my milk shakin momma, my soda jerking baby
She's the girl that keeps the ice cream, and I just had to scream for her
Next time you're hungry, take my advice
Try the soda fountain, it could be just as nice
It could be just as nice.

Breakneck speed Tying up your hands 'cause you're landing back on your feet You know what I mean Vowel change I remember when our voices used to sound the same Now we just translate 'cause I'm still amazed you made it out alive After what you did Born on your feet running, Forest fires underneath your bed But it's good to be back Good to be back Good to be back Spell it out I always skip the words 'cause all the pictures are so bright and loud Better off than now 'cause I'm still amazed you made it out alive After what you did Born on your feet, running Forest fires underneath your bed 'cause it's good to be back Good to be back Super fun At the movies, drunk and young Double knots that came undone But the big bad years are gone Yeah, the big bad years are done And gone away I remember when our voices used to sound the exact same Now we just translate 'cause I'm still amazed you made it out alive After what you did Born on your feet running, forest fires underneath your bed But it's good to be back Good to be back Good to be back Breakneck Speed - Tokyo Police Club

Somehow I'd be doing all right if it wasn't for the nights
If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it
I'd have courage left to fight if it wasn't for the nights
If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights
Even I could see a light I think that I could make it
Somehow I'd be doing all right if it wasn't for the nights
If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it

My love, wherever you are
Whatever you are
Don't lose faith
I know it's gonna happen someday
To you
Please wait
Please wait
Wait
Don't lose faith
You say the day just never arrives
And it's never seemed to far away
Still, I know it's gonna happen someday
To you
Please wait
Don't lose faith

Outside
Gets inside
Through her skin.
I've been out before
But this time it's much safer in.
Last night in the sky,
Such a bright light.
My radar send me danger
But my instincts tell me to keep
Breathing,
("Out, in, out, in, out, in...")
Breathing,
Breathing my mother in,
Breathing my beloved in,
Breathing,
Breathing her nicotine,
Breathing,
Breathing the fall-out in,
Out in, out in, out in, out in.
Breathing - Kate Bush

Son, that song predates those skanky posers by decades. It was old before their moms were born.

My wife and I actually caught the Pussycat Dolls' act at their Lounge in Ceasar's Palace in Vegas and it was pretty good actually! It wasn't the pop group but the "hardly known" lounge gals ... not bad at all! Oh and they were all SO hard on the eyes! I was trying real hard to pretend like " oh honey, they're no big deal".... and my wife's like" mmm-hmmmm, yeah right"

Here's a goody from Ray le Montagne
Jolene
Been so long since I seen your face
Or felt a part of this human race
I've been living out of this here suitcase for way too long
A man needs something he can hold onto
A nine pound hammer or a woman like you
Either one of them things will do
Jolene
I ain't about to go straight
It's too late
I found myself face down in a ditch
Booze in my hair
Blood on my lips
A picture of you holding a picture of me
In the pocket of my blue jeans
Still don't know what love means
Still don't know what love means
Jolene
Jolene
Jolene

And on another "note":
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please don't take him just because you can
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, jolene
He talks about you in his sleep
There's nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, jolene
And I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, jolene
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please don't take him just because you can
You could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
Hes the only one for me, jolene
I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, jolene
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
Jolene, jolene

Eyes to see, eyes to see
But I had to look away
Didn't want my eyes to see
Coming of Judgment Day
Judgment Day, Judgment Day
Time has come at last
Saying last shall be first
And first shall be last
First is last...
It happened oh so fast
Mean black crow, swooping real low
Ruination in its path
Ruination ruination
Raining ash and dust
Fell on my knees begging
Please please please
Could not stand back up
I fell right down again
Couldn't bear to stand up straight
The whole sky was cavin' in
Cavin' in, cavin' in
Lord, mercy it's gonna' go
Glass and steel I can see 'em still
Jumping from the windowsill
See 'em still, see 'em still
Floatin' on a cloud
A hundred bluebirds came wingin' by
Rescued 'em no doubt
No doubt, no doubt
They learned the bluebirds' song
'Bout rooftops and trees
Sunshiney breeze
We all can sing along
Little song, little song
Won't you soothe the hurt?
Trembling voice, trembling heart
Ain't this a broken world?
Broken world, broken world
Lord, this world is broke
Who's got the arms big and wide
To hold the whole world right close?
Broken world, broken world
Just like a broken top
And it won't spin straight
When it's spun with hate
How we gonna' make it stop?
-- Kate Schutt, 2001

You told me that I was like an angel
Told me I was fit to wear a crown
So that you could get a thrill
You put me on a pedestal
And then you let me down, let me down.
You told me that I'd be wearing diamonds
I would have the smartest car in town
Made me think that I'm the top
And then you let the ladder drop
You know you let me down, let me down
I walked upon a rainbow
I clung onto a star
You had me up in heaven
That's why I had to tall so far
I was even looking for a cottage
I was measured for a wedding gown
That how I got cynical
You put me on a pinnacle
And then you let me down, let me down
How you let me down

There's a little black spot on the sun today
It's the same old thing as yesterday
There's a black hat caught in a high tree top
There's a flag-pole rag and the wind won't stop
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
There's a little black spot on the sun today
(That`s my soul up there)
It's the same old thing as yesterday
(it`s my soul up there)
There's a black hat caught in a high tree top
(it`s my soul up there)
There's a flag-pole rag and the wind won't stop
(it`s my soul up there)
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
There's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff wall
(it`s my soul up there)
There's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall
(it`s my soul up there)
There's a blue whale beached by a spring tide's ebb
(it`s my soul up there)
There's a butterfly trapped in a spider's web
(it`s my soul up there)
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
There's a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
There's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
There's a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread
King of pain
There's a red fox torn by a huntsman's pack
There's a black-winged gull with a broken back
There's a little black spot on the sun today
It's the same old thing as yesterday
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
King of pain
I'll always be king of pain
I'll always be king of pain
