God Knows



Mando Diao - God Knows

Well I turned left just like you told me to
I get excited by the moves you do
I'm on a mission and I'm gonna get away
Well I saw her standing all colored in red
I felt the blues just by the things she said
I want my mission so I can escape today

God knows - I ain't sleeping but I want my line
God knows - I ain't happy so I want it bad tonight
Oh brother can you help me out
God knows - I've got nothing so accept my time
God knows - it ain't easy to behave in this spotlight
Oh brother can you help me out
brother can you help me out
Oh brother can you help me out

Well I turned the page from number three to four
You had nothing on you by my bedroom door
You had your mission now I'm gonna get away
When this is over and our souls are saved
When I am buried when I've got my own cave
I've done my mission so I won't be here today

God knows - I ain't sleeping but I want my line
God knows - I ain't happy so I want it bad tonight
Oh brother can you help me out
God knows - I've got nothing so accept my time
God knows - it ain't easy to behave in this spotlight
Oh brother can you help me out...
Brother can you help me out
Oh brother can you help me out
Oh brother can you help me out

I turned right just like I thought you would
I got excited like you said I would
I'm on a mission and I'm getting blown away
Well I saw her standing all colored in red
I felt the blues just by the things she said
I want my mission so I can escape today

God knows - I ain't sleeping but I want my line
God knows - I ain't happy so I want it bad tonight
Oh brother can you help me out
God knows - I've got nothing so accept my time
God knows - it ain't easy to behave in this spotlight
Oh brother can you help me out...
All right

Smells Like Teen Spirit



Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit 

Load up on guns, bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over bored and self-assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word

Hello, hello, hello, how low? (x3)
Hello, hello, hello
With the light out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulato, An albino, A mosquito, My libido
Yay

I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

Hello, hello, hello, how low? (x3)
Hello, hello, hello
With the light out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulato, An albino, A mosquito, My libido
Yay

And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard it was hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind

Hello, hello, hello, how low? (x3)
Hello, hello, hello
With the light out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulato, An albino, A mosquito, My libido
Yay

World Leader Pretend



R.E.M. - World Leader Pretend

I sit at my table and wage war on myself
It seems like it's allit's all for nothing
I know the barricades, and
I know the mortar in the wall breaks
I recognize the weapons, I used them well

This is my mistake Let me make it good
I raised the wall, and I will be the one to knock it down

I've a rich understanding of my finest defenses
I proclaim that claims are left unstated,
I demand a rematch
I decree a stalemate
I divine my deeper motives
I recognize the weapons
I've practiced them well I fitted them myself

It's amazing what devices you can sympathizeempathize
This is my mistake Let me make it good
I raised the walls, and I will be the one to knock it down

Reach out for me and hold me tight Hold that memory
Let my machine talk to me Let my machine talk to me

This is my world
And I am world leader pretend
This is my life
And this is my time
I have been given the freedom
To do as I see fit
It's high time I've razed the walls
That I've constructed

It's amazing what devices you can sympathizeemapathize
This is my mistake Let me make it good
I raised the walls, and I will be the one to knock it down

You fill in the mortar You fill in the harmony
You fill in the mortar I raised the walls
And I'm the only one
I will be the one to knock it down

Betterman



Pearl Jam - Betterman

Waitin', watchin' the clock, it's four o'clock, it's got to stop
Tell him, take no more, she practices her speech
As he opens the door, she rolls over..
Petends to sleep as he looks her over..

She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man.
She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man.
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Ohh...

Talkin' to herself, there's no one else who needs to know;
She tells herself..
Oh...
Memories back when she was bold and strong
And waiting for the world to come along...
Swears she knew it, now she swears he's gone

She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man.
She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man.
She lies and says she still loves him, can't find a better man.
She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man.
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Yeah...

She loved him, yeah... She don't want to leave this way
She needs him, yeah... That's why she'll be back again
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better... man...

"Hay un éxtasis que señala la cúspide de la vida y por encima del cual no puede elevarse esta. Y lo paradójico de la vida es que este éxtasis se produce cuando uno está más vivo y se olvida absolutamente de que lo está. Este éxtasis, este olvido de la existencia, se produce en el artista, atrapándolo y sacándolo de sí en una llama de pasión; se produce en el soldado, ebrio de guerra en un campo desolado cuando lucha sin cuartel; y se produjo en Buck cuando encabezaba el grupo, entonando el antiguo grito alobunado, y perseguía aquella presa viva que se le escapaba velozmente a la luz de la luna. Sondeaba la profundidad de su naturaleza, y las partes de su naturaleza que eran más profundas que él, regresando hasta las entrañas del tiempo. Le dominaba el flujo poderoso de la vida, la merea de la existencia, el goce perfecto de cada uno de sus músculos, de sus articulaciones y de sus nervios, en tanto que representaban algo que no estaba muerto, sino vivo y exuberante, y se expresaba mediante el movimiento, volando exultante bajo las estrellas y sobre la faz de una sustancia muerta que no se movía."

- Jack London (The Call of the Wild)

Boom, Like That


Mark Knopfler - Boom, Like That

I'm going to san bernardino ring-a-ding-ding
Milkshake mixers that's my thing, now
These guys bought a heap of my stuff
And i gotta see a good thing sure enough, now
Or my name's not kroc that's kroc with a 'k'
Like 'crocodile' but not spelled that way, yeah
It's dog eat dog rat eat rat
Kroc-style boom, like that
 
The folks line up all down the street
And i'm seeing this girl devour her meat, now
And then i get it, wham as clear as day
My pulse begins to hammer and i hear a voice say:
 
These boys have got this down
Oughtta be a one of these in every town
These boys have got the touch
It's clean as a whistle and it don't cost much
Wham, bam you don't wait long
Shake, fries patty, you're gone
And how about that friendly name?
Heck, every little thing oughtta stay the same
Or my name's not kroc that's kroc with a 'k'
Like 'crocodile' but not spelled that way, now
It's dog eat dog rat eat rat
Kroc-style boom, like that
 
You gentlemen ought to expand
You're going to need a helping hand, now
So, gentlemen well, what about me?
We'll make a little business history, now
Or my name's not kroc call me ray
Like 'crocodile' but not spelled that way, now
It's dog eat dog rat eat rat
Kroc-style boom, like that
 
Well we build it up and i buy 'em out
But, man they made me grind it out, now
They open up a new place flipping meat
So i do, too right across the street
 
I got the name i need the town
They sell up in the end and it all shuts down 
Sometimes you gotta be an s.o.b.
You wanna make a dream reality
Competition? send 'em south
If they're gonna drown
Put a hose in their mouth
Do not pass 'go' go straight to hell
I smell that meat hook smell
 
Or my name's not kroc that's kroc with a 'k'
Like 'crocodile' but not spelled that way, now
It's dog eat dog rat eat rat
Kroc-style boom, like that

Hurt


Johnny Cash - Hurt

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hold
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end

And you could have it all
My empire of dirt

I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end

And you could have it all
My empire of dirt

I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again

A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

Wind of Change


Scorpions - Wind of Change

I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change

The world closing in
Did you ever think
That we could be so close, like brothers
The future's in the air
I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

Walking down the street
Distant memories
Are buried in the past forever

I fallow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

The wind of change blows straight
Into the face of time
Like a stormwind that will ring
The freedom bell for peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change
