Lyrical Response

[PastaJoe]

When the samba takes you, out of nowhere
With the background fading, out of focus
Yes the picture's changing, every moment
And your destination, you don't know it

Avalon

[DrW]

When I look up to the sky
I see your eyes, a funny kind of yellow
I rush home to bed, I sunk my head
I see your face underneath my pillow
I wake next morning, tired, still yawning
See your face come peeping through my window

Pictures of matchstick men and you
Images of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you

[PastaJoe]

Electrical banana
Is gonna be a sudden craze
Electrical banana
Is bound to be the very next phase

They call it mellow yellow (Quite rightly)
They call me mellow yellow (Quite rightly)
They call me mellow yellow

[muppy]

… Call me the breeze
I keep blowing down the road
Well now, they call me the breeze
I keep blowing down the road
I ain't got me nobody
I don't carry me no load

[Bill from NYC]

If you're feeling sad and lonely
There's a service I can render
Tell the one who loves you only
I can be so warm and tender

Call me
Don't be afraid, you can call me
Maybe it's late, but just call me
Tell me, and I'll be around

[muppy]

Your stare was holdin'
Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot night, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?

Hey, I just met you
And this is crazy
But here's my number
So call me, maybe?

It's hard to look right
At you baby
But here's my number
So call me, maybe?
 

[DrW]

Crazy cat peekin' through a lace bandanna
Like a one-eyed cheshire, like a diamond-eye jack
A leaf of all colors plays a golden-string fiddle
To a double-e waterfall over my back

 

China cat, china cat
China cat, china cat
China cat, china cat
China cat, china cat

[PastaJoe]

My little China girl
You shouldn't mess with me
I'll ruin everything you are
You know it
I'll give into your visions
I'll give you eyes of blue
But I'll give you a man who wants to rule the world

 

[Bill from NYC]

If you can abide it, let the hurdy-gurdy play
Stranger ones have come by here
Before, they flew away

I will not condemn you, nor yet would I deny
I would ask the same of you
But failing, will not die

 

Take up your china doll

it's only fractured
And just, a little nervous from the fall

[muppy]

We could've gone all the way to the Great Wall of China
If you only had a little more faith in me
In lieu of diamonds, gold, and platinum reminders
Will still shine bright
All the king's men and all the king's horses
Can't put you together the way you used to be
We could have been standing on the Great Wall Of China

When the sun comes up on a sleepy little town
Down around San Antone
And the folks are risin' for another day
'Round about their homes

The people of the town are strange
And they're proud of where they came
Well, you talkin' 'bout your China Grove
(talkin' 'bout your china grove)
Whoa, oh (whoa, oh) China Grove

[muppy]

Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man ev'ry night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleepin'
Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been

Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
 

[PastaJoe]

Somewhere out on that horizon
Out beyond the neon lights
I know there must be somethin' better
But there's nowhere else in sight

 

It's survival in the city
When you live from day to day
City streets don't have much pity
When you're down, that's where you'll stay

In the city
Oh, oh

[muppy]

Day by day
Day by day
Oh, dear Lord, three things I pray
To see thee more clearly
Love thee more dearly
Follow thee more nearly
Day by day

[PastaJoe]

I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind

It's gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day
It's gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day

[muppy]

 

Oh, I could hide 'neath the wings
Of the bluebird as she sings
The six o'clock alarm would never ring
But it rings and I rise
Wipe the sleep out of my eyes
My shavin' razor's cold and it stings

Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
Oh, what can it mean
To a day dream believer
And a homecoming queen

[PastaJoe]

When the red red robin comes bob bob bobbin' along along
There'll be no more sobbin' when he starts throbbin' his old sweet song
Wake up wake up you sleepy head get up get up get out of bed
Cheer up cheer up the sun is red live love laugh and be happy

[DrW]

Walking on his highways

We leave the land

And float inside the dark, black water

Robin flies again

 

She flew low over the highways

And I saw the wind

Blowing back her barbie doll hair

Robin flies again

[Bill from NYC]

When the last bolt of sunshine hits the mountain
And the stars start to splatter in the sky
When the moon splits the southwest horizon
With the scream of an eagle on the fly

I will walk alone by the black muddy river
And listen to the ripples as they moan
I will walk alone by the black muddy river
And sing me a song of my own

[DrW]

Take a last decision and the cars to move it

Past information

Tunnel vision and the scars to prove it

Everybody got a reservation

Far beyond the black horizon

Beyond the things you know

Everybody got a destination

Everybody got a place to go

Take a walk downtown to where the victims go

Take your shadow to the end to the very last window

Everybody got friends got shot upside and over

Down the line

Everybody got assignations I got mine
