Lyrical Response

[Bill from NYC]

I have a friend in town, he's heard your name
We can go out driving on Slow Hand Row
We could stay inside and play games, I don't know
And you could have a change of heart

 

Rikki don't lose that number
You don't want to call nobody else
Send it off in a letter to yourself
Rikki don't lose that number
It's the only one you own
You might use it if you feel better
When you get home

[Son of a K-Gun]

Give it to me baby uh huh uh huh
Give it to me baby uh huh uh huh
Give it to me baby uh huh uh huh

And all the girlies say I'm pretty fly for a white guy

Damn Bill, simultaneous posts...but I could have used your Rikki in my song too!

 

At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake

You do know what they say about great minds lol!

 

And we both chose excellent songs to boot. 👍

For goodness' sake
I wasn't told you'd be this cold
Now it's my time to depart, and
I just had a change of heart

[muppy]

Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

[Son of a K-Gun]

And all that is now
And all that is gone
And all that's to come
And everything under the sun is in tune
But the sun is eclipsed by the moon

[DD4Bills]

There is a lake between sun and moon
Not too many know about
In the silence between whisper and shout
The space between wonder and doubt

[muppy]

The Bills make me wanna SHOUT!

Kick your heels up and SHOUT!

Throw your hands up and SHOUT!

Throw your head back and SHOUT!

C’mon now, the Bills are makin’ it happen now…

Stand up now c’mon and shout..

YEAA-AAAH! YEAA-AAAH!

[PastaJoe]

He'll be the risk in the kiss, might be anger on your lips
Might run scared for the door
But in seasons of wither we'll stand and deliver
Be strong and laugh and

Shout, shout, shout!
Shout at the devil!
Shout, shout, shout!
Shout at the devil!

[Joe Ferguson forever]

There is so much a man can tell you
So much he can say
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me, you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny
Won't you tell me, is that healthy, baby?

[Pre-Chorus]
But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large and
The light that you shine can't be seen?

[Chorus]
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooh, the more I get of you, stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey

[Bill from NYC]

Lay me on the ground
And fly me in the sky
Show me where to look
Tell me, what will I find?
What will I find?

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Whoa, Heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, Heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, Heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, Heaven let your light shine down

[Son of a K-Gun]

Above the planet on a wing and a prayer
My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

 

There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Can't keep my mind from the circling sky
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I

[WhoTom]

Nothing to say

Nothing to hear

Nothing to see

Each sensation makes a note

In my symphony

[DD4Bills]

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, that's life
Tryna make ends meet, you're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah

[muppy]

That's life
(That's life)
That's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out but my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothing shaking come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up
In a big ball and die
My, my

[LeviF]

And I can't make it on my own
(And I can't make it on my own)
Because my heart is in Ohio
So cut my wrists and black my eyes
(Cut my wrists and black my eyes)
So I can fall asleep tonight, or die

[muppy]

Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me

 

'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't

[Tuco]

Won't you lay down beside me the cold's creepin' in

And hold me 'til I'm warm and sleeping again

I can tell on your breath all the places you've been

You got lost in those Queen City streets once again

 

Tie tight your boots, bundle up to the wind

A Canadian cold front's movin' southward again

It busts down the alley and freezes the men

Who got lost in those Queen City streets once again

[muppy]

Tonight, tonight the highway's bright
Out of our way, mister, you best keep
'Cause summer's here and the time is right
For racin' in the street

[Bill from NYC]

Well mother don't you stop prayin'

Father keep right on prayin'

Don't you stop prayin' for this old world is almost done

Keep your lamps trimmed and burning

Keep your lamps trimmed 

Keep your lamps trimmed and burning

For this old world is almost done
