Lyrical Response

[muppy]

I felt so good, like anything was possible
Hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes
The last three days the rain was unstoppable
It was always cold, no sunshine

Yeah, runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream

[WhoTom]

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

 

[Bill from NYC]

Same old, rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb
You know better but I know him
Like I told you, what I said
Steal your face right off your head

 

He's gone, now he's gone, Lord he's gone.

He's gone
Like a steam locomotive, rollin' down the track
He's gone, he's gone and nothin's gonna bring him back.

He's gone

 

RIP Robert Hunter

Get yourself cooler, lay yourself low
Coincidental murder with nothing to show
When the judge's constipation go to his head
And his wife's aggravation, you're soon enough dead

It's the same old story
Same old song and dance, my friend
It's the same old story
Same old song and dance, my friend

[Bill from NYC]

You're sweet, as a honey bee
But like a honey bee stings
You've gone and left my heart in pain
All you left, is our favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
It used to bring sweet memories
Of a tender love that used to be

 

Now it's the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
Now it's the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
And it breaks me up to hear it
I, oh I

[WhoTom]

I write the same old song with a few new lines
And everybody wants to cheer it
I write the same old song you heard a good few times
Admit you really want to hear it

[PastaJoe]

Rip it up, move down
Rip it up, move it down to the ground
Rip it up, cool down
Rip it up, don't hang me on the borderline

 

Everybody have fun tonight
Everybody have fun tonight
Everybody Wang Chung tonight
Everybody have fun tonight
Everybody Wang Chung tonight
Everybody have fun

[muppy]

Gone a little far
Gone a little far this time with something
Rudi said it's fine
They used to do this all the time in college (If you and I get comfortable)

And we're on the borderline (Ooh)
Caught between the tides of pain and rapture
Then I saw the time
Watched it speedin' by like a train
 

[SinceThe70s]

Stop your messing around;
Better think of your future,
Time to straighten right out,
Creating problems in town.

 

Rudy,
A message to you, Rudy.
A message to you.

[WhoTom]

Rudy's on a train to nowhere;
Halfway down the line
He don't wanna get there
But he needs time

[Bills4everNY]

Yeah, heard the diesel drumming 

All down the line 

Yeah, heard the wires a humming 

All down the line 

[muppy]

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants, too
Well, uh, outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl, hey

[PastaJoe]

Riders on the storm 
Riders on the storm 
Into this house, we're born 
Into this world, we're thrown 
Like a dog without a bone 
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm 

 

[DD4Bills]

Ridin' the storm out, waitin' for the thaw out
On a full moon night in the Rocky Mountain winter.
My wine bottle's low, watching for the snow
Thinkin' about what I've been missin' in the city.

[Bill from NYC]

Worry the bottle, Mama
It's grapefruit wine
Kick off your high-heeled sneakers
It's party time
The girls don't seem to care what's on
As long as they play 'til dawn
Nothin' but blues and Elvis
And somebody else's favorite song

Give her some funked-up Muzak
She treats you nice
Feed her some hungry reggae
She'll love you twice
The girls don't seem to care tonight
As long as the mood is right

No static at all
(No static, no static at all)
FM (No static at all)

[muppy]

'Cause, 'cause, 'cause I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
Oba, observing the hypocrites, yeah
Mingle with the good people we meet, yeah
Good friends we have had, oh good friends we've lost along the way, yeah
In this bright future you can't forget your past
So dry your tears I say, yeah

No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry, eh, yeah
Little darling don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
 

[WhoTom]

I've seen all good people turn their heads each day
So satisfied I'm on my way

[SinceThe70s]

Where did all the good people go,
I've been changing channels I don't see them
On the TV shows
Where did all the good people go,
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow

[PastaJoe]

I bought a bourgeois house in the Hollywood hills
With a truckload of hundred thousand dollar bills
Man came by to hook up my cable TV
We settled in for the night my baby and me
We switched 'round and 'round 'til half-past dawn:
There was fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
 

[muppy]

There is a house way down in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one
