Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION The Anywhere Machine random song lyrics: POST it if ya FEEl it!

You get up every morning
From your 'larm clock's warning
Take the 8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above
And people pushin', people shovin'
And the girls who try to look pretty
And if your train's on time
You can get to work by nine
And start your slaving job to get your pay
If you ever get annoyed
Look at me I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day
And I'll be

Taking care of business (every day)
Taking care of business (every way)
I've been taking care of business (it's all mine)
Taking care of business and working overtime

When you wake up in the morning
And you can't remember much about the night before
Then the lady who's beside you gets up
She goes right out and
Locks the bathroom door
And your head won't stop singin'
The phone won't stop ringin'
Your plane is gonna leave twelve-fifteen
It was close to six o'clock
Before you get to know a little dream
Look at the bangin' man
Says he can
Time after time
He'll get down, down, down
To bangin' back home

Slade, "Bangin' Man"

Well I'm remonstrated
Outdated I really want to be over-rated
I'm a finder and I'm a keeper
I'm not a loser and I ain't no weeper
I got the boys to make the noise
Won't ever let up
Hope it annoys you
Join the pack
Fill the crack
Well now you're here
There's no way back

Bang your head! Metal Health'll drive you mad
Bang your head! Metal Health'll drive you mad

C'mon feel the noize
Girls grab your boys
We'll get wild wild wild
Wild wild wild

I wrestle, with your conscience
You wrestle, with your partner
Sittin' on a window sill, but he
Spends time behind closed doors

Check out Mr. Businessman
Oh, ho ho
He bought some wild, wild life
On the way to the stock exchange
Oh, ho ho
He got some wild, wild life

Wild boys
Never lose it
Wild boys
Never chose this way
Wild boys
Never close your eyes
Wild boys
Always shine

- Duran Duran, Wild Boys

Like a true natures child
We were born
Born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never wanna die
Born to be wild
Born to be wild

Jungle life
I'm far away from nowhere
On my own
Like Tarzan Boy
Hide and seek
I play as I rush 'cross the forest
Monkey business on a sunny afternoon
Jungle life
I'm living in the open
Native beat
That carries on
Burning bright
A fire that blows the signal to the sky
I sit and wonder does the message get to you
OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA
OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA
OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA
OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA-OWA

Baltimora, Tarzan Boy

I met you on somebody's island
You thought you had known me before
I brought you a crate of papaya
They waited all night by your door
You probably wouldn't remember
I probably couldn't forget
Jungle love in the surf in the pouring rain
Everything's better when wet

Jungle love it's drivin' me mad
It's makin' me crazy
Jungle love it's drivin' me mad
It's makin' me crazy

I love black and white
Dreamy black and white
You love black and white
Run runaway

See chameleon lying there in the sun
All things to everyone
Run runaway

If you're in the swing
Money ain't everything
If you're in the swing
Run runaway

See chameleon lying there in the sun
All things to everyone
Run runaway

If you got a crush
Don't beat around the bush
When I've got a crush
Run runaway

See chameleon
Lying there in the sun
All things to everyone
Run runaway

Oh, now can't you wait
Love don't come on a plate
Oh, now can't you wait
Run runaway

See the chameleon
Lying there in the sun
All things to everyone
Run runaway

Run runaway
Run runaway
Run runaway

Let us be lovers,
We'll marry our fortunes together.
I've got some real estate
Here in my bag.

So we bought a pack of cigarettes,
And Mrs. Wagner's pies,
And walked off
To look for America.
"Kathy", I said,
As we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh,
Michigan seems like a dream to me now.

It took me four days
To hitch-hike from Saginaw.
"I've come to look for America."

Laughing on the bus,
Playing games with the faces,
She said the man in the gabardine suit
Was a spy.

I said, "Be careful,
His bow tie is really a camera."
"Toss me a cigarette,
I think there's one in my raincoat."
We smoked the last one
An hour ago.

So I looked at the scenery,
She read her magazine;
And the moon rose over an open field.
"Kathy, I'm lost", I said,
Though I know she was sleeping.
"I'm empty and aching and
I don't know why."

Counting the cars
On the New Jersey Turnpike
They've all come
To look for America,
All come to look for America,
All come to look for America.

"America" – Simon & Garfunkel

I get knocked.
But I get up again
You're never gonna keep me down.

I went out and did my head I came home and thought about you
I saw the world turn red I picked off my new tattoo
I cut out pictures of days on end
I tear up paper and wait for Martian Saints to descend

I woke up in a shallow sweat I went back to sleep again
I walked around my room I called up my ex-boyfriend
I said you're the reason I'm in this mess
When they show up I'll give the Martian Saints your address

I see them flying round the mirror
I know they're coming for me soon

Now I play my favorite tune I bemoan my lonely fate
My last few days on earth spin in this stateless state
And I hear the engines above the trees
You tell the people about the Martian Saints for me

Martian Saints - Mary Lou Lord

You're older than you've ever been and now you're even older
And now you're even older
And now you're even older
You're older than you've ever been and now you're even older
And now you're older still
Time Is marching on
And time Is still marching on
This day will soon be at an end and now it's even sooner
And now it's even sooner
And now it's even sooner
This day will soon be at an end and now it's even sooner
And now it's sooner still
You're older than you've ever been and now you're even older
And now you're even older
And now you're even older
You're older than you've ever been and now you're even older And now you're older still

“Older” – They Might Be Giants

You'll be safe here
From the sheer weight
Of your doubts and fears

Don't talk back
Just drive the car
Shut your mouth
I know what you are
Don't say nothing
Keep your hands on the wheel
Don't turn around
This is for real

Kids wanna be so hard
But in my dreams we're still screamin' and runnin' through the yard
And all of the walls that they built in the seventies finally fall
And all of the houses they built in the seventies finally fall
Meant nothin' at all
Meant nothin' at all
It meant nothin

Hey Joe, where you goin' with that gun of your hand
Hey Joe, I said where you goin' with that gun in your hand, oh
I'm goin' down to shoot my old lady
You know I caught her messin' 'round with another man
Yeah, I'm goin' down to shoot my old lady
You know I caught her messin' 'round with another man
Huh! and that ain't cool
Huh hey hoe, I heard you shot your mamma down
You shot her down now
Hey Joe, I heard you shot your lady down
You shot her down in the ground yeah!
Yeah!

I want a girl with uninterrupted prosperity
Who uses a machete to cut through red tape
With fingernails that shine like justice
And a voice that is dark like tinted glass

It's so easy to laugh, it's so easy to hate
It takes guts to be gentle and kind

Got home from camping last spring.
Saw people, places and things.
We barely had arrived,
Friends asked us to describe
The people, places and every last thing.
So we unpacked our adjectives.

I unpacked "frustrating" first.
Reached in and found the word "worst".
Then I picked "soggy" and
Next I picked "foggy" and
Then I was ready to tell them my tale.
'Cause I'd unpacked my adjectives.

Adjectives are words you use to really describe things,
Handy words to carry around.
Days are sunny or they're rainy
Boys are dumb or else they're brainy
Adjectives can show you which way.

Adjectives are often used to help us compare things,
To say how thin, how fat, how short, how tall.
Girls who are tall can get taller,
Boys who are small can get smaller,
Till one is the tallest
And the other's the smallest of all.

We hiked along without care.
Then we ran into a bear.
He was a hairy bear,
He was a scary bear,
We beat a hasty retreat from his lair.
And described him with adjectives.

Next time you go on a trip,
Remember this little tip:
The minute you get back,
They'll ask you this and that,
You can describe people, places and things...
Simply unpack your adjectives.
You can do it with adjectives.
Tell them 'bout it with adjectives.
You can shout it with adjectives.

Yeah, this is a story of a famous dog
For the dog that chases its tail will be dizzy
These are clapping dogs, rhythmic dogs
Harmonic dogs, house dogs, street dogs
Dogs of the world unite
Dancin' dogs
Yeah!
Countin' dogs, funky dogs
Nasty dogs (Dog)

Atomic Dog

Gorillas in the jungle,
Gazelles out in the field,
Goats are in the barnyard,
And gophers in their holes....

Go! Go! Go! Go for G!
Go! Go! Go! Go for G!
You'll feel glorious, generous, gleeful and great
When you Go! Go! Go! Go for G!

Goof balls in their go-carts,
Girl scouts chewing gum,
Grandma with her gingerbread,
And the drummer plays a gong.

Go! Go! Go! Go for G!
Go! Go! Go! Go for G!

You'll feel gracious, gigantic, grateful and glad
When you Go! Go! Go! Go for G!

Grapes.

Glue.

Gyroscopes.

Go! Go! Go! Go for G!
Go! Go! Go! Go for G!

You'll feel glorious, generous, gleeful and great
When you Go! Go! Go! Go for G!

Here on Fibber Island
We strum rubber guitars
Our friends live on Mars
And we sew buttons on our cars

Here on Fibber Island
Our house is made of pie
Our dog is two miles wide
And all he talks about is pie

Here on Fibber Island
We swim on the ground
Wheels are square not round
We eat chocolate by the pound

Here on Fibber Island
(Here on Fibber Island)
No one sings along
(No one sings along)
We just ride giraffes
(We just ride giraffes)
And wear bicycles for hats
(Bicycles for hats)

To get to Fibber Island
You just close your eyes
Start fibbin' in your mind
And see what you can find

Here on Fibber Island
We hide mittens in our hair
You might need to stare
And see the mittens in our hair

Come to Fibber Island
And strum rubber guitars
Meet our friends from Mars
And sew buttons on our cars

One Saturday I took a walk to Zipperhead
I met a girl there
And she almost knocked me dead
Punk rock girl please look at me
Punk rock girl what do you see?
Let's travel round the world
Just you and me punk rock girl
