All I got to be is, be happy
All it's got to take is some warmth to make it
BLOW AWAY, Blow Away, Blow Away.

Chim Chim Cher-ee - Mary Poppins

Chim chiminey
Chim chiminey
Chim chim cher-oo!
Good luck will rub off when
I shake hands with you
Or blow me a kiss
And that's lucky too

Now as the ladder of life
Has been strung
You may think a sweep's
On the bottom-most rung

Next: Lucky

[Phalon]

He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door

Ooooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooooh, what a lucky man he was

[Siren]

from "Mama Don't Get Dressed Up For Nothing" by Brooks & Dunn

She said "Hey cowboy get off of that couch
Yeah, the party's on and we're goin' out
I got my low-cut dress and my knee-high boots
I'm like money to burn and nothing to lose
You're the man of the house
You better think of something
'Cause MAMA don't get DRESSED up for nothing"


next: Mama

Weight Of The World ~ Beth Hart

Mama is holding tomatoes in the yard
And her hair is all golden, her soul's a superstar
She's dancing to Billie's, "You gotta find your way"
She keeps saying don't worry, I'll love you anyway

next word : DANCING

[Phalon]

from "Swamp Song" by Tool

My warning meant nothing,
You're dancing in quicksand,
Why don't you watch where you're wandering?
Why don't you watch where you're stumbling?
You're wading knee deep and going in,
And you may never come back again.

next word: deep

Deep in the Meadow - The Hunger Games (Rue's Lullaby)

Deep in the meadow, under the willow,
A bed of grass, a soft green pillow,
Lay down your head, and close your sleepy eyes,
And when again they open, the sun will rise.

Next: Meadow

[Phalon]

from "Winter Wonderland"

In the meadow we can build a snowman,
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown

But you can do the job
When you're in town.

next word: job

[stepper]

Get A Job – The Silhouettes

Get a job Sha na na na, sha na na na na
Every morning about this time

a-crying get a job.
After breakfast, everyday,
she throws the want ads right my way
And never fails to say,
Get a job Sha na na na, sha na na na na

Next: Fail(s)

[Phalon]

from "Never Again" by Disturbed

A generation that was persecuted endlessly
Exterminated by the Nazi war machine
We will remember, let the story be told
To realize how we lost our humanity
You dare to tell me that there never was a Holocaust?
You think that history will leave the memory lost?
Another Hitler using fear to control
You're gonna fail this time for the world to see

next word: history

[stepper]

Anyone But Me - Carly Simon


When I look in you eyes
I know hundreds of girls have been there
I tried to be civilized
And pretend I don't care

Take me away, burn out the past
And hold me to calm my jealousy
Hold me, forget your history

Next: Pretend

[Phalon]

from "Wish You Were Here" by Incubus

I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds
Strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind
Pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy...happy

Dolls by a palm tree in the sand

I've Got You Under My Skin - Sinatra, Carly Simon, and many more

[Phalon]

from "Vicarious" by Tool

Why can't we just admit it?
We won't give pause until the blood is flowing
Neither the brave nor bold
Will write as the story's told
We won't give pause until the blood is flowing

Listen To The Rhythm of The Falling Rain – Ricky Nelson, The Cascades, and more

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again

Now the only girl I've ever loved has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know that when she left that day
Along with her she took my heart

Next: Brand

There's nothing better once you've had the best.
