Lyrical Response

[Gray Beard]

She was born in the wagon of a travellin' show
Her mama had to dance for the money they'd throw
Grandpa'd do whatever he could
Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of doctor good

[PastaJoe]

It's love, Brother Love say
Brother Love's Travelling Salvation Show
Pack up the babies
And grab the old ladies
And everyone goes
'Cause everyone knows
Brother Love's show

[Bill from NYC]

Trina takes her paints and her threads
And she weaves a pattern all her own
Annie bakes her cakes and her breads
And she gathers flowers for her home
For her home she gathers flowers
And Estrella, dear companion
Colors up the sunshine hours
Pouring music down the canyon
Coloring the sunshine hours
They are the ladies of the canyon

[Gray Beard]

Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

[PastaJoe]

Wake up, little Susie, wake up
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
The movie wasn't so hot, it didn't have much of a plot
We fell asleep, our goose is cooked, our reputation is shot
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie, well

[WhoTom]

And when the night is cloudy,
There is still a light that shines on me,
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

 

[SinceThe70s]

Try to make some changes really on the line
Given your religion, never ever time
All the jokers laughing, queens upon the floor
Mothers understand it, baby needs some more

 

Mother Mary could you ever really feel the same
And would you try to understand a wild colonial boy

[Gray Beard]

No time for a gentle rain
No time for my watch and chain
No time for revolving doors
No time for the killin' floor
No time for the killin' floor
There's no time left for you
No time left for you

[WhoTom]

This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,
This ain't no fooling around
This ain't no Mudd Club, or C. B. G. B.,
I ain't got time for that now

 

[Bill from NYC]

Last Sunday morning, the sunshine felt like rain
The week before, they all seemed the same
With the help of God and true friends, I've come to realize
I still have two strong legs, and even wings to fly

So I, ain't a-wastin time no more
'Cause time goes by like hurricanes, and faster things

[Gray Beard]

One fine morning, girl, I'll wake up
Wipe the sleep from my eyes
Go outside and feel the sunshine
Then I know I'll realize
That as long as you love me, girl, we'll fly

 

And on that mornin' when I wake up
I'll see your face inside a cloud
See your smile inside a window
Hear your voice inside a crowd
Calling, "Come with me baby and we'll fly"

[SinceThe70s]

If I had a perfect day
I would have it start this way
Open up the fridge and have a tall boy

[WhoTom]

Just a perfect day
Drink Sangria in the park
And then later
When it gets dark, we go home

 

[Gray Beard]

MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no

[SinceThe70s]

Moving forward using all my breath
Making love to you was never second best
I saw the world crashing all around your face
Never really knowing it was always mesh and lace

 

I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference and it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
I'll stop the world and melt with you

[Bill from NYC]

And the difference, between me and you

I won't argue right or wrong

But I have time to cry my baby

You don't have to cry

I said cry my baby, you don't have to cry

 

[Gray Beard]

It is time for you to laugh instead of crying
Yes it's time for you to laugh so keep on trying oh oh oh
There's one thing you gotta do
To make me still want you
Gotta stop sobbing now
Yeah yeah stop it stop it

 

[SinceThe70s]

Now I don't like crying
Because it only gets me wet
But I can't help failing
To remember to forget you
And I know it's gonna be a long time

 

And I'm crying like a church on Monday
Praying for these feelings to go away
So do me a favor baby
Put down your new God
And love me like Sunday again

[ExWNYer]

It's hard to understand
But the touch of your hand
Can start me crying

[WhoTom]

Boy you sure took me for one big ride
Even now I sit and wonder why
And when I think of you I start to cry
I just can't waste my time, I must keep dry
Gotta stop believin' in all your lies
'Cause there's too much to do before I die

 

You feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good myself
