Lyrical Response

[SinceThe70s]

I looked in the mirror today
My eyes just didn't seem so bright
I've lost a few more hairs
I think I'm, I'm going bald

[Bill from NYC]

Well I keep on thinkin' 'bout you

Sister Golden Hair surprise

And I just can't live without you

Can't you see it in my eyes?

 

I've been one poor correspondent

And I've been too too hard to find

But it doesn't mean

You ain't been on my mind.

[SinceThe70s]

Why should I care
If I have to cut my hair?
I've got to move with the fashion
Or be outcast

[Gray Beard]

Almost cut my hair
It happened just the other day
It was gettin' kinda long
I could-a said, it was in my way
But I didn't and I wonder why
I feel like letting my freak flag fly
And I feel like I owe it to someone

[WhoTom]

And the sign said "Long-haired freaky people need not apply"
So I tucked my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why
He said "You look like a fine upstanding young man, I think you'll do"
So I took off my hat, I said "Imagine that. Huh! Me workin' for you!"

 

[Gray Beard]

I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes, I saw the sign
Life is demanding without understanding
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes, I saw the sign
No one's gonna drag you up to get into the light where you belong
But where do you belong?

[SinceThe70s]

We belong to the light, we belong to the thunder
We belong to the sound of the words we've both fallen under
Whatever we deny or embrace for worse or for better
We belong, we belong, we belong together

[DD4Bills]

We go together
Like rama lama lama ka dinga da dinga *****
Remembered forever
As shoobop sha wadda wadda yippity boom de boom
Chang chang changitty chang shoobop
That's the way it should be, wha oooh, yeah

[WhoTom]

Ah, caught you smiling at me,
That's the way it should be,
Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine.
Ah, all the good times we had,
I sang love songs so glad
Always smiling, never sad, so fine.

Your love is like, a rollercoaster baby baby,

I want to ride (awawaw)

Your love is like, a roller coaster baby baby,

I want to ride yeah (awawaw)

[PastaJoe]

It was fun when we were young and now we're older
Those days when we were broke in California
We were up-and-down and barely made it over
But I'd go back and ride that roller coaster
It was fun when we were young and now we're older
Those days that are the worst, they seem to glow now
We were up-and-down and barely made it over
But I'd go back and ride that roller coaster with you

[KD in CA]

Well, East coast girls are hip
I really dig those styles they wear
And the Southern girls with the way they talk
They knock me out when I'm down there
The Midwest farmer's daughters really make you feel alright
And the Northern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night

I wish they all could be California (girls)
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California girls
 

[Gray Beard]

Well, she's all you'd ever want
She's the kind I like to flaunt and take to dinner
But she always knows her place
She's got style, she's got grace, she's a winner
She's a lady
Oh, whoa, whoa, she's a lady
Talkin' about that little lady
And the lady is mine

 

[WhoTom]

(going to the other extreme...)

 

She's a very kinky girl,
The kind you don't take home to mother

 

[Gugny]

Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb?

Mother do you think they'll like this song?

Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls?

Ooh, ah
Mother should I build the wall?

[Bill from NYC]

Forgive me if my fantasies, might seem a little shopworn
I'm sure you've heard it all before, I wonder what's the right form
Love songs written for you, it's been going down for years
But to sing what's in my heart, seems more honest than the tears

I am curious
Don't want to hurry us
I'm intrigued with us
Ain't this song a bust
I don't care dark star

Don't you know

That you are a shooting star

Don't you know, don't you know

Don't you know that you are

A shooting star

And all the world will love you

Just as long, as long as you are

[PastaJoe]

Hey, check it all out
Baby, I know what it's all about
Before the night is through
You will see my point of view
Even if I have to scream and shout

 

Baby, I'm a star
Might not know it now
Baby, but I are, I'm a star, yeah
I don't want to stop, till I reach the top
Sing it, we all are a star

[Bill from NYC]

You can come as you are, with just your heart

And I'll take you in.

Though you're rejected and hurt, to me you're worth

Girl, what you have within.

 

Oh honey boy, I don't need no superstar

'Cause I'll accept you as you are

You won't be denied, cause I'm satisfied

With the love that you inspire

 

You don't have to be a star baby, to be in my show

 

[Gray Beard]

Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore

I would not leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are
