Lyrical Response

[muppy]

How long have I been sleeping?
How long have I been drifting alone through the night?
How long have I been running for that morning flight?
Through the whispered promises and the changing light
Of the bed where we both lie
Late for the sky

[WhoTom]

Well, the hesitation stalker's got them hesitation shoes
You know, Lord, I got them hesitation blues
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, or must I hesitate?

 

[cwater10]

Clean shirt, new shoes
And I don't know where I am goin' to
Silk suit, black tie 
I don't need a reason why

[muppy]

The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

 

Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please

[PastaJoe]

He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
Oh, the engineers would see him sitting in the shade
Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made
The people passing by they would stop and say
"Oh my what that little country boy could play"

 

[muppy]

Talk about celestial bodies
And your angels on the wing
She wasn't much good at stickin' around, but
That girl could sing
She could sing

[cwater10]

Oh, girl
I'd be in trouble if you left me now
'Cause I don't know where to look for love
I just don't know how

 

Oh, girl
How I depend on you
To give me love when I need it
Right on time you would always be

[Joe Ferguson forever]

Some girls take my money, some girls take my clothes
Some girls get the shirt off my back, and leave me with a lethal dose

French girls they want Cartier, Italian girls want cars
American girls want everything in the world you can possibly imagine

English girls they're so prissy, I can't stand them on the telephone
Sometimes I take the receiver off the hook, I don't want them to ever call at all

White girls they're pretty funny, sometimes they drive me mad
Black girls just wanna get ***** all night, I just don't have that much jam

Chinese girls are so gentle, they're really such a tease
You never know quite what they're cookin', inside those silky sleeves

Give me all you money, give me all your gold
I'll buy you a house in Baker Street, and give you half of what I own

[muppy]

Stop callin', stop callin'
I don't wanna think any more
I left my head and heart on the dance floor
Stop callin', stop callin'
I don't wanna talk anymore
I got my head and my heart on the dance floor

 

Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh
Stop telephonin' me
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh
I'm busy, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh
Stop telephonin' me
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh

[cwater10]

Marvin, he was a friend of mine
And he could sing a song
His heart in every line
Marvin sang of the joy and pain
He opened up our minds
And I still can hear him say
Aw talk to me so you can see
What's going on
Say you will sing your songs
Forevermore 

Gonna be some sweet sounds
Coming down on the nightshift
I bet you're singing proud
Oh I bet you'll pull a crowd
Gonna be a long night
It's gonna be all right
On the nightshift
Oh you found another home
I know you're not alone
On the nightshift

[WhoTom]

Open up your eyes, your eyes, and let the child learn.
Open up your eyes, and let the child learn

[PastaJoe]

In your eyes
The light, the heat (in your eyes)
I am complete (in your eyes)
I see the doorway (in your eyes)
To a thousand churches (in your eyes)
The resolution (in your eyes)
Of all the fruitless searches (in your eyes)

 

[cwater10]

Stand Back
Said stand Back
What are those dogs doing sniffing at my feet?
They're on to something, picking up, picking up this heat

 

This heat, give me steam
And how you feel can make it real
Real as anything you've seen
Get a life with the dreamer's dream

[Gugny]

Stand back, stand back
In the middle of my room, I did not hear from you
It's alright, it's alright
To be standing in a line (Standing in a line)
To be standing in a line
I would cry

[muppy]

Sometimes, I feel I gotta get away
Bells chime, I know I gotta get away
And I know if I don't, I'll go out of my mind
Better leave her behind with the kids, they're alright
The kids are alright

[cwater10]

I wish that I could fly
Into the sky
So very high
Just like a dragonfly

 

I'd fly above the trees
Over the seas in all degrees
To anywhere I please, oh

 

I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Son of a K-Gun]

Four men in a rock 'n roll band
Fly at night in the morning we land
Fly at night 'til we're satisfied
See the morning from the other side

[PastaJoe]

And if you want the wind of change
To blow about you
And you're the only other person to know, don't tell me
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.

[Bill from NYC]

Need it now just a little bit, just a little bit
(with just a touch of love)
Makes me frown baby just a little bit, just a little bit
(you got to)
Send fire through my spine baby just a little bit, just a little bit
(with just a touch of love)
Can we spend some time?
(can we spend some time)

[WhoTom]

So keep an eye open
My spirit ain't broken
Your love is so incredible
Your body so edible
You give me an overdose of love
Just a little is enough
