Lyrical Response

[LeviF]

All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
Let it be, and come to me with the look in your eyes
Well you break and take all the words from my mouth
I wish all the pretty girls were shaking me down

But not you
You still wear boots and your hair is too long
And then this one, doesn't wanna admit she's fallin' in love
Oh c'mon, oh c'mon, what's a boy to do
When all the pretty girls can't measure to you?

[Joe Ferguson forever]

"Pretty"  by the weekend (put on a great show too)

 

Somebody told me it was pointless for me to come back
Into your arms
Said you ***** another man, finally
I knew this day would come, woah oh, oh
'Cause I see fear in your eyes
You've been living out your life
As long as you know that when I land you're mine (mhm, mhm)
It's been exactly three sixty-five since I've seen your face (あったかいね)
I've been living on the road
And you've been living all alone, at home
Girl I hope
He made you satisfied (気持ちいい)
Well, baby I won't cry
As long as you know that when I land you're mine

[WhoTom]

Sixty-five, I was seventeen and running up 101
I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on

 

[muppy]

He was no more than a baby then
Well he seemed broken-hearted
Something within him
But the moment that I first laid
Eyes on him, all alone
On the edge of seventeen

[Joe Ferguson forever]

Find the perfect picture out of ten
Wearing tons of makeup on my skin
It's a little much
But I think it's what they want

Dreamin' of a version of myself
Looking like a doll on the shelf
What have I become?
Maybe this is kinda dumb

I've been so caught up pleasing you
I got lost in the likes and views
It's been way too long since I looked
In the mirror and saw the truth

[PastaJoe]

You load 16 tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

[LeviF]

I walked up to North Avenue past St. Peter and Paul's
It can seem long when you're alone but it never seemed so cold
Took back all my gifts for this, hallowed be thy name
Now I can't smoke anywhere anymore, but nothing else has changed

I don't need a champagne toast
Keep it for someone with a shred of hope that'll hold you
And be there 'cause you know I won't
Someone deserves you and you know I don't
I'm sorry

[SinceThe70s]

When you know that your time is close at hand
Maybe then you'll begin to understand
Life down here is just a strange illusion

 

Yeah-yeah-yeah, hallowed be thy name

[muppy]

Welcome to the Grand Illusion
Come on in and see what's happening
Pay the price, get your tickets for the show

[WhoTom]

Welcome to the camp, I guess you all know why we're here
My name is Tommy and I became aware this year
If you want to follow me, you've got to play pinball
And put in your ear plugs, put on your eye shades
You know where to put the cork

[muppy]

Oh my ***

Jump

Welcome to the jungle, we've got fun and games
We got everything you want honey, we know the names
We are the people that can find whatever you may need
If you got the money, honey, we got your disease

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your sha-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n knees, knees
Mwah, I, I wanna watch you bleed

[SinceThe70s]

And I thought, "This is a dangerous place" once again, you know
Who should appear but two policemen

obscure doubt lyrics available but listen

[Joe Ferguson forever]

can be a jungle

 

 

Hello mother, hello father
Here I am at Camp Granada
Camp is very entertaining
And they say we'll have some fun if it stops raining

I went hiking with Joe Spivey
He developed poison ivy
You remember Lennard Skinard
He got ptomain poisoning last night after dinner

All the counselors hate the waiters
And the lake has alligators
And the head coach wants no sissies
So he reads to us from something called 'Ulysses'

No, I don't want this should scare ya
But my bunkmate has malaria
You remember Jeffrey Hardy
They're about to organize a searching party

Take me home, oh mother, father
Take me home, I hate Granada
Don't leave me out in the forest
Where I might get eaten by a bear

Get off my back you monkey
Ya got my nerves jumping like a junkie today
Poison ivy ya come creepin up right behind me
You make me itch baby you're so unkind

[Joe Ferguson forever]

Jumping

 

 

 

[LeviF]

I can't stop sweating or control my feet
Got a twenty-stone monkey that I just can't beat
I can stage a situation, but I just can't eat
And there's a feeling you're replacing embrace
It's true that

All I do is sit and think about you
If I knew what you'd do
Collapse my veins, wearing beautiful shoes
It's not living, if it's not with you

[SinceThe70s]

Have you heard the news?
(What news? Oo-whatta-news!)
Can't afford no shoes

[PastaJoe]

I read the news today, oh boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall
I'd love to turn you on
