Lyrical Response

[SinceThe70s]

I keep my underwear up with a piece of elastic
I use a bull#### mic that's made out of plastic
To send my rhymes out to all the nations Like Ma Bell
I got the ill communication

[Bill from NYC]

Hey, girl, stop what you're doin'
Hey, girl, you'll drive me to ruin
I don't know what it is I like about you, but I like it a lot
Won't you let me hold you, now, let me feel your lovin' touch

 

Communication breakdown, it's always the same
Havin' a nervous breakdown, a-drive me insane

[muppy]

Hey, uh-huh-huh
Hey, uh-huh-huh

What I like about you, you hold me tight
Tell me I'm the only one
Wanna come over tonight, yeah

Keep on whispering in my ear
Tell me all the things that I wanna hear
'Cause it's true (that's what I like)
That's what I like about you (that's what I like)

[WhoTom]

I don't really mind how much you love me
Ooh, a little is alright
When you say, "Come over and spend the night,
Tonight, " tonight

[muppy]

Let's spend the night together
Now I need you more than ever
Let's spend the night together now

[Bills4everNY]

You don't realize how much I need you 

Love you all the time, never leave you

Please come on back to me

I'm lonely as can be 

I need you

[WhoTom]

Love you every day girl,
Always on my mind.
One thing I can say girl,
Love you all the time.

[Bill from NYC]

Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I'll be loving you always

 

As today I know I'm living but tomorrow
Could make me the past but that I mustn't fear
For I'll know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
'Cause I'll be loving you always

[Joe Ferguson forever]

in context, think of Burl Ives, the McCarthy hearings and the "red threat":

 

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows

All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games

Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say
"Rudolph, with your nose so bright
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
"Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
You'll go down in history"

[PastaJoe]

Out of all the reindeers you know you are the mastermind
Run, run Rudolph, Randolph ain't too far behind
Run, run Rudolph, Santa's gotta make it to town
Santa, make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
Run, run Rudolph 'cause I'm reelin' like a merry-go-round

[WhoTom]

Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin'
Please don't leave me girl (don't you go)
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl (don't you go)

[muppy]

If you leave me now
You'll take away the biggest part of me
Ooh-ooh-hoo, no
Baby, please don't go

 

[SinceThe70s]

All the leaves are brown (all the leaves are brown)
And the sky is grey (and the sky is grey)

[WhoTom]

The sky is cryin'
Can't you see the tears roll down the street

 

[Bill from NYC]

Street life
You can run away from time
Street life
For a nickel or a dime
Street life
But you better not get old
Street life
Or you're gonna feel the cold

[muppy]

… You're gonna get what's coming
You've been asking for it two days running
You're gonna get what's coming
You're gonna get what's coming to you

[PastaJoe]

In this corner with the '98
Subject of suckers, object of hate
Who's the one some think is great?
I'm that one (son of a gun!)
Drivin' by wavin' my fist
Makin' 'em mad when I'm goin' like this
Top gun, never on the run
(They know not to come cause they all get some)
Goin' quicker in the speedin' lane
Jealous can't do it and it's causin' them pain
Caught in my smoke, all they did was choke
Look at my spokes, you know I'm no joke
Out that window, middle finger for all
Jealous at my ride, stereo and blackwalls
Suckers they got the nerve and gall
(To talk about the car when they're walkin' tall)

Suckers to the side, I know you hate my '98
(You're gonna get yours!)
Suckers to the side, I know you hate my '98
(You're gonna get yours!)

[muppy]

Tooth for tooth, eye for an eye
Sell your soul just to buy, buy, buy
Beggin' for a dollar, stealin' a dime
Come on, can't you see that I—

I am stranded, caught in the crossfire
I am stranded, caught in the crossfire

[WhoTom]

You were caught in the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
Blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!

[Joe Ferguson forever]

 went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
Asked the Lord above for mercy, "Save me if you please"

I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride
I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride
Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by

I'm going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side
I'm going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side
You can still barrelhouse, baby, on the riverside

You can run, you can run, tell my friend-boy Willie Brown
You can run, you can run, tell my friend-boy Willie Brown
And I'm standing at the crossroads, believe I'm sinking down
