Little Perennials ~ Indigo Girls

Back in the long stretch of loneliness
I have come to call a living,
I'm getting something for all this love's labor,
even when I am forgetting.

Oh we oh oh little perennials
where'd you come from?

Daughter of my father's second cousin,
loyalties, I got em by the dozen.
We share a past, we share a blood relation
and that's as good as an invitation.

Oh we oh oh little perennials
where'd you come from?

next word: LABOR

[Siren]

All day long I break my back
To keep this company in the black
There's gotta be an end to all this LABOR
When I hear that WHISTLE blow
I can't wait to see your smiling face and
Lose myself in your embrace
But lately every day when I walk in
Oh it feels like work again

from "Feels Like Work" by Darryl Worley

next: whistle

[Phalon]

Just whistle while you work
Put on that grin and start right in
to whistle loud and long
Just hum a merry tune
Just do your best and take a rest
and sing your self a song

When there's too much to do
Don't let it bother you, forget your troubles,
Try to be just like a cheerful chick-a-dee

And whistle while you work
Come on get smart, tune up and start
to whistle while you work

next word: hum

Workingman's Blues - Bob Dylan


There's an evenin' haze settlin' over town
Starlight by the edge of the creek
The buyin' power of the proletariat's gone down
Money's gettin' shallow and weak
Well, the place I love best is a sweet memory
It's a new path that we trod
They say low wages are a reality
If we want to compete abroad

My cruel weapons have been put on the shelf
Come sit down on my knee
You are dearer to me than myself
As you yourself can see
While I'm listening to the steel rails hum
Got both eyes tight shut
Just sitting here trying to keep the hunger from
Creeping it's way into my gut

Chorus:
Meet me at the bottom, don't lag behind
Bring me my boots and shoes
You can hang back or fight your best on the frontline
Sing a little bit of these workingman's blues

Well, I'm sailin' on back, ready for the long haul
Tossed by the winds and the seas
I'll drag 'em all down to hell and I'll stand 'em at the wall
I'll sell 'em to their enemies
I'm tryin' to feed my soul with thought
Gonna sleep off the rest of the day
Sometimes no one wants what we got
Sometimes you can't give it away

Now the place is ringed with countless foes
Some of them may be deaf and dumb
No man, no woman knows
The hour that sorrow will come
In the dark I hear the night birds call
I can feel a lover's breath
I sleep in the kitchen with my feet in the hall
Sleep is like a temporary death

(chorus)

Well, they burned my barn, and they stole my horse
I can't save a dime
I got to be careful, I don't want to be forced
Into a life of continual crime
I can see for myself that the sun is sinking
How I wish you were here to see
Tell me now, am I wrong in thinking
That you have forgotten me?

Now they worry and they hurry and they fuss and they fret
They waste your nights and days
Them I will forget
But you I'll remember always
Old memories of you to me have clung
You've wounded me with your words
Gonna have to straighten out your tongue
It's all true, everything you've heard

(chorus)

In you, my friend, I find no blame
Wanna look in my eyes, please do
No one can ever claim
That I took up arms against you
All across the peaceful sacred fields
They will lay you low
They'll break your horns and slash you with steel
I say it so it must be so

Now I'm down on my luck and I'm black and blue
Gonna give you another chance
I'm all alone and I'm expecting you
To lead me off in a cheerful dance
I got a brand new suit and a brand new wife
I can live on rice and beans
Some people never worked a day in their life
Don't know what work even means

Slip of the Tongue ~ Whitesnake

Sometime after midnight, the heat begins to rise
Girl you'd shame the devil with the look that's in your eyes
I know what's on your mind and I can't run away
If I don't give you what you want there's gonna be some hell to pay
Creeping up behind me, knocking at my door
I'd never be too blind to see just what you're looking for
You roll me over, make me moan
Ooh, such a velvet touch, you'd melt a heart of stone
(chorus:)
Anytime, anyplace, I'm just the fool who puts a smile on your face
A slave to love and keep you young
All it takes and no mistakes is just a slip of the tongue

And if I want a little love I gotta take a little pain
Make me think a thousand times before I kiss again
I'm waiting on your, every day and every night
If I don't try to satisfy there's gonna be a fist fight
(chorus)

The sun is slowly rising and I'm sinking to my knees
I'm dying just to close my eyes, I'm begging, darlin' please
I hear you calling and I'm crawling cross the floor
I give you everything I got and still you ask for more
(chorus)

Black Velvet ~ Alanah Myles



Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

Chorus:
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

Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
White lightening, bound to drive you wild
Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl
"Love me tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for


next word: SOUTHERN

[Siren]

From Carolina down to Georgia,
Smell the jasmine and magnolia,

The Pot ~ Tool

Who are you to wave your finger?
You must have been out your head.
Eyehole deep in muddy waters, you practically raised the dead
Rob the grave to snow the cradle, then burn the evidence down.
Soapbox house of cards and glass, so don't go tossing your stones around.

Soap-Box Preacher
The Band

Soap-box preacher standing on the corner
And all the people they would gather round
You speak of faith with a blaze of glory
But those that fear they wanna knock you down

Nobody knows where you live
Where do you go in the naked night
All of the prophets that come before you
They can hear your lonesome cry

When you’re out there in the night
All alone
When you’re staring in the light
At the end of the road

In those proud shoes, coming on up the alley
In those proud shoes, walks all over the sky
Then he tipped his hat just like Don Quixote
And said don’t let the Rapture pass you by

Heard a bugle blowing in the misty morning
What a haunting sound over Times Square
Heard of the ghost of 52nd street
Looked out the door but no one was there

Out in the cold Harlem rain
I went looking for this minstrel man
Played me a song to ease the pain
With a Salvation Army Band

When you’re out there on the dark
All alone
When you’re sleeping in the park
At the end of the road

In the neon wilderness and the asphalt jungle
He carries his cross of passion
Through the wreckage and the rubble

In those proud shoes, coming on up the alley
In those proud shoes, walks all over the sky
Then he tipped his hat just like Don Quixote
And said don’t let the Rapture
Don’t let the rapture pass you by

next word: tipped

Maeve

[Siren]

As a little child my thoughts ran wild
As I CLUNG to Mama's dress,
As the train grew near the engineer
Waved my fears to rest;
He TIPPED his hat and pulled the cord
And blew a long refrain-
Around midnight I'd be dreaming
Of the passing of the train.

The Bricklayers Song ~ The Corries

Dear Sir I Write This Note To You To Tell You Of My Plight
For At The Time Of Writing It I'm Not A Pretty Sight
My Body Is All Black And Blue, My Face A Deathly Grey
And I Write This Note To Say Why I Am Not At Work Today

Whilst Working On The 14th Floor Some Bricks I Had To Clear
But Tossing Them Down FRom Such A Hight Was Not A Good Idea
The Foreman Wasn't Very Pleased He Is An Arkward Sod
And He Said I Had To Cart Them Down THe Ladders In Me Hod

Clearing All These Bricks By Hand It Was So Very Slow
So I Hoisted Up A Barrell And Secured A Rope Below
But In Me Haste To Do The Job, I Was To Blind To See
That A Barrell Full Of Building Bricks Was Heavier Than Me

And So When I Untied The Rope The Barrell Fell LIke Lead
And Clinging Tightly To THe Rope I Started Up Instead
I Shot Up Like A Rocket, And To My Dismay I Found
That Halfway Up I Met The Bloody Barrell Coming Down

Well The Barrell Broke Me Shoulder As To The Ground It Sped
And When I Reached The Top I Banged The Pulley With Me Head
But I Clung On Tightly Numb With Shock From This Allmighty Blow
While The Barrel Spilled Out Half Its Bricks Some 14 Floors Below

When These Bricks Had Fallen FRom The Barrell To The Floor
I Then Outweighed The Barrell And So Started Down Once More
But I Clung On Tightly To The Rope My Body Racked With Pain
And Halfway Down I Met The Bloody Barrell Once Again

Now The Force Of This Collision Halfway Down The Office Block
Caused Multiple Abrations And A Nasty Case Of Shock
But I Clung On Tightly To The Rope As I Fell Towards The Ground
And I Landed On The Broken BRicks The Barrell Had Scatterred Round.

Now As I Lay There On The GRound I Thought I'd Passed The Worst
But The Barrel Hit The Pulley Wheel And Then The Bottom Burst
A Shower Of Bricks Rained Down On Me I Didn't Have A Hope
As I Lay There Bleeding On The Ground I Let Go The Bloody Rope

The Barrell Now Being Heavier So Started Down Once More
It Landed Right Across Me As I Lay There On The Floor
It BRoke 3 ribs And My Left Arm And I Can Only Say
I Hope You`ll Understand Why I Am Not At Work Today

Last Tears ~ Indigo Girls

There was a time when all signs pointed to the warm south
The planets all lined up and built a new house
And everything we talked about felt like a prophecy
And when you looked at me they all came true
And if you asked which one wants to go the distance
I do
I'm gonna rack my mind one last time until I cannot think
I'm gonna dip into your memory and take a good stiff drink
And when I'm drunk on the last drop of sadness about how we went wrong
I'm gonna play this song
Make some coffee black and strong
Give thanks for healing time
And finally make up my mind

next word : COFFEE

[moonglum]

Will You ~ Hazel O'connor

You drink your coffee and I sip my tea
And we're sitting here playing so cool, thinking "what will be, will be"
But it's getting kind of late now
Oh I wonder if you'll stay now, stay now, stay now, stay now
Or will you just politely say goodnight?

I move a little closer to you, not knowing quite what to do
And I'm feeling all fingers and thumbs, I spill my tea, oh silly me!
But it's getting kind of late now
I wonder if you'll stay now, stay now, stay now, stay now
Or will you just politely say goodnight?

And then we touch much too much
This moment has been waiting for a long long time
Makes me shiver, it makes me quiver
This moment I'm so unsure
This moment I've waited for
Is it something you've been waiting for, waiting for too?

Take off your eyes, bare your soul
Gather me to you and make me whole
Tell me your secrets, sing me the song
Sing it to me in the silent tongue
But it's getting kind of late now
I wonder if you'll stay now, stay now, stay now, stay now
Or will you just politely say goodnight?

next word..........politely

Donovan - The Walrus And The Carpenter Lyrics


Presenta the grand circo! The prima del mondo!
La grand successo! Giulia Nova Vittorio!
Fantastico! Magnifico! Spectaculario!
Here, Alice ventured to interrupt.
"It's very long," she said as politely as she could,
"Will you tell me first which road ?"
Tweedledum smiled gently and began again.

The sun was shining on the sea, shining with all his might;
He did his very best to make the billows smooth and bright -
And this was odd, because it was the middle of the night.

The moon was shining sulkily because she thought the sun
"It's very rude of him," she said, "to come and spoil the fun."
Had got no business to be there after the day was done.
The sea was wet as wet could be, the sands were dry as dry.

You could not see a cloud because no cloud was in the sky.

No birds were flying overhead, there were no birds to fly.
The walrus and the carpenter were walking close at hand;
"If this were only cleared away," they said, "it would be grand."
They wept like anything to see such quantities of sand.

"If seven maids with seven mops swept it for half a year,
Do you suppose, the walrus said", "that they could get it clear ?"
"I doubt it," said the carpenter, and shed a bitter tear.

"O oysters, come and walk with us!" the walrus did beseech.
"A pleasant walk, a pleasant talk, along the briny beach:
We cannot do with more than four to give a hand to each."

The eldest oyster looked at him, but never a word he said:
Meaning to say he did not choose to leave the oyster bed.
The eldest oyster winked his eye and shook his heavy head

But four young oysters hurried up, all eager for their treat,
Their coats were brushed, their faces washed, their shoes were clean and neat
And this was odd, because you know they hadn't any feet.

All hopping through the frothy waves and scrambling to the shore.
And thick and fast they came at last, and more, and more, and more
Four other oysters followed them and yet another four
The walrus and the carpenter walked on a mile or so
And then they rested on a rock conveniently low
And all the little oysters stood and waited in a row.

"The time has come," the walrus said, "to talk of many things,
Of shoes and ships and sealing wax, of cabbages and kings
And why the sea is boiling hot, and whether pigs have wings."

"But wait a bit," the oysters cried, "before we have our chat,
For some of us are out of breath, and all of us are fat!"
"No hurry," said the carpenter - they thanked him much for that.

"A loaf of bread," the walrus said, "is what we chiefly need,
Pepper and vinegar besides, are very good indeed.
Now if you're ready oysters dear, we can begin to feed."

"Not on us! " the oysters cried, turning a little blue.
"The night is fine, " the walrus said, "do you admire the view ? "
"After such kindness that would be a dismal thing to do."
"It was so kind of you to come and you are very nice!"

The carpenter said nothing but, "Cut us another slice:
I wish you were not quite so deaf - I've had to ask you twice."
"It seems a shame," the walrus said, "to play them such a trick

After we've brought them out so far and made them trot so quick."

"I weep for you," the walrus said, "I deeply sympathise."
The carpenter said nothing but, "The butter's spread too thick. "
With sobs and tears he sorted out those of the largest size,
Holding his pocket handkerchief before his streaming eyes.
"O oysters," said the carpenter, "You've had a pleasant run

Trotting home again ? " But answer came there none.
And this was scarcely odd because they'd eaten every one,
They'd eaten every one

Just Been Born ~ Heather Nova

My heart opened, like an oyster shell
I drank salt water, from your lips
And just below the equator
I swallowed the pearl

And I feel, and I feel, and I feel like I've just been born

And the sea rolled in
And rose around us
Your face above me
Darkening the stars
And as the waves are breaking out along the reef
I dived for your heart

Lips Like Sugar ~ Echo and the Bunnymen

She floats like a swan
Grace on the water
Lips like sugar
Lips like sugar
Just when you think you've caught her
She glides across the water
She calls for you tonight
To share this moonlight

You'll flow her river
She'll ask & you'll give her...
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses

She knows what you know
I know what she's thinking
Sugar kisses, sugar kisses
Just when you think she's yours
She's flown to other shores
To laugh at how you break
And melt into this lake

You'll flow down her river
But you'll never give her...
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses

She'll be my mirror
Reflect what I am
Loose women
The king of Siam
And my siamese twin
Alone in the river
Mirror kisses, mirror kisses...

Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses

BB King - Beware Brother Beware


Hey, fellas, yes, you, fellas, listen to me, i got something to tell you
And i want you to listen to every word and govern yourselves accordingly

Now, you see these girls with these fine diamonds, fine furs and fine clothes
Well, they're looking for a husband and you're listening to a man who knows
They ain't foolin', and if you fool around with them
You're gonna get yourself in a schoolin'

Listen, if she saves you dough, and won't go to the show
Beware
If she's easy to kiss and won't resist
Beware

And if you go for a walk, and she listens while you talk
She's tryin' to hook you

And nobody's lookin' and she asks you to taste her cookin'
Don't do it, don't do it
And if you go to a show and she wants to sit in the back row
Bring her down front, bring her right down front

If you wanna go for a snack, and she wants to sit in the booth in the back
Beware

And listen, if she's used to caviar and fine silk
When you go out with her she wanna a hot dog and a malted milk
She's trying to get you

If you're used to goin' to carnegie hall, but when you take her out night clubing
All she wants is one meatball
You better take it easy

If she grabs your hand and says, "darling, you're such a nice man"
Beware, i'm telling you

(should i tell them no more?)
(tell them everything)

You better listen to me 'cause i'm telling you what's being put down
You better pick up on it

If her sister calls your brother, you better get further
I'm telling you, you better watch it

And if she's acting kind of wild, and she says, "darling, give me a trial"
Don't you do it, don't be weak, don't give it to her
And if she smiles in your face and just melts into place
Let her melt, forget it, let her melt

(should i tell them no more?)
(tell them everything)

Now listen, if she calls you up on the phone, and says,
"darling, are you all alone?"
Tell her, "no, no, i've got two, three women with me"

Don't pay no attention to women
Stand up for your right, be a man, be a man

(are you listening?)
If you turn out the lights and she don't fight
That's the end, it's too late
She's got you hooked, you might as well stick with her

(should i tell them no more?)

If you get home about two and don't know what to do
You pull back the curtains, and the whole family's looking at you
Get your business straight
Set the date, don't be late

Brother, beware, beware, beware
Brother, you better beware

Fear ~ Sarah Mclachlan

Morning smiles
like the face
of a newborn child
innocent unknowing.

Winter's end
promises
of a long lost friend.
Speaks to me of comfort

but I fear
I have nothing to give.
I have so much
to lose here in this lonely place.
Tangled up in your embrace
there's there's nothing I'd like better than
to fall.

but I fear
I have nothing to give.

Wind in time
rapes the flower
trembling on the vine
and nothing yields to shelter
from above.
They say temptation will destroy our love.

to lose here in this lonely place
tangled up in our embrace

We smiled without any style
We kiss altogether wrong
No intention

We lived without each other thinkin'
What anyone would do
Without me and you

It's like I told you
Only the lonely can play

So hold on here we go
Hold on to nothin' we know

If sometimes you see that I'm mad
Don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel?

Well I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Baby sometimes I'm so carefree
with a joy that's hard to hide
Then sometimes again it seems that all I have is worry
And then you bound to see my other side

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

If I seem edgy
I want you to know
That I never meant to take it out on you
Life has its problems
and I have my share
And that's me one thing I never wanna do

Baby
Don't you know I'm human
I have thoughts like any other one?
Oh when sometimes I find myself alone regretting
Some little thing
Some simple thing I've done

Out on the road, and a long long way from home
Why must I be so, must I be so misunderstood
While my intentions, my intentions all are good
Wish only one time that things would turn out like they should

Too many hearts, too many times, overkill
So many times, double around, how many faces do reveal
How many folks gettin' to be over the hill....

Somewhere in my heart
There is a star that shines for you
Silver splits the blue
Love will see it through
And somewhere in my heart
There is the will to set you free
All you've got to be is true

A star above the city in the northern chill
A baby being born to the overkill
No say no place to go
A t.v. and a radio

Amibition and love wearing boxing gloves
And singing hearts and flowers

Chorus

But who could heal
What's never been as one
And our hearts have been torn
Since the day we were born

But you can sell your soul
And the closest thing to heaven is to rock and roll

Every single day I got a heartache coming my way

To make a poor man's heart break

But I'm gonna try and make you grieve somehow

While theres nothing better to do

Dont you look at my girlfriend
Shes the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
Never seem to get a lot

Take a jumbo cross the water
Like to see america
See the girls in california
Im hoping its going to come true
But theres not a lot I can do


next word.............autograph
