The return of the Lyric Association Thread

[richblueyes]

I don't wanna waste my time playing games
Now I'm telling you that this will be your last chance
Baby, show me how you feel, that if I know this is for real
Don't tell me 'cause you have, you should want to
Say you want me, want me, want me
Tell me that you need me, need me
'Cause if you really, really love me
Say you want me, say you need me
Say you want me, want me, want me

[KEZHEAD]

I don't want you cook my bread
I don't want you make my bed
I don't want your money too
I just want to make love to you
I don't want you be no slave
I don't want you work all day
I don't want you to be sad and blue
I just want to make love to you

[richblueyes]

It's one o'clock and time for lunch
When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench
I can always hear them talk

There's always been Ethel
"Jacob, wake up! You've got to tidy your room now"
And then Mister Lewis
"Isn't it time that he was out on his own?"
Over the garden wall, two little lovebirds - cuckoo to you
Keep them mowing blades sharp
I know what I like, and I like what I know
Getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show
Sunday night, Mr Farmer called, said
"Listen son, you're wasting time; there's a future for you
In the fire escape trade. Come up to town!"
But I remembered a voice from the past
"Gambling only pays when you're winning"
I had to thank old Miss Mort for schooling a failure
Keep them mowing blades sharp
I know what I like, and I like what I know
Getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show
When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench
I can always hear them talk
Me, I'm just a lawnmower - you can tell me by the way I walk

[KEZHEAD]

^Awesome rich^


Old friends, old friends
Sat on their park bench like bookends
A newspaper blown through the grass
Falls on the round toes
Of the high shoes of the old friends
Old friends, winter companions, the old men
Lost in their overcoats, waiting for the sunset
The sounds of the city sifting through trees
Settle like dust on the shoulders of the old friends
Can you imagine us years from today
Sharing a park bench quietly?
How terribly strange to be 70
Old friends, memory brushes the same years
Silently sharing the same fears

This song always reminds me of my lost friend Scott

[Brian129]

New York and Boston, yeah we sure had some fun
Summer nights in the park, and when the music would start
Ooh what a time and then some
We sang together, "a good feelin' to know"

[richblueyes]

There are places I'll remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends, I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new


For Scott & His Beautiful Friend

[KEZHEAD]

Well I remember, I remember don't worry
How could I ever forget
It's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep this silence up
No you don't fool me
The hurt doesn't show, but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you and me

[richblueyes]

A million miles away
Your signal in the distance
To whom it may concern
I think I lost my way
Gettin' good at startin' over
Every time that I return
I'm learnin' to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
I'm learnin' to talk again
Can't you see I've waited long enough?
Where do I begin?
Do you remember the days
We built these paper mountains
Then sat and watched them burn?
I think I found my place
Can't you feel it growin' stronger?
Little conquerors
I'm learnin' to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
I'm learnin' to talk again

[rdiberna]

A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I

[KEZHEAD]

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like Heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last, love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off of you

[richblueyes]

I got a notion of comfort that's surrounding me
I got a hope that gives me joy in my suffering
I got an ever present help anytime that I need
Oh, it's Your love, it's Your love, it's Your love chasing after me, mm
And You are good, good, good
Oh, God, You're so good
And You are good, good, good
Oh, God, You're so good
In all things
At all times
You are good, good, good
My God, my God, You're so good

[Fishtown Boy]

And when the cupboards bare
I'll still find something there with my love
It's understood, it's everywhere with my love
And my love does it good

[KEZHEAD]

Here there may be tigers, to punch you in the ear.
With gloves of stainless steel, bats carved out of bricks
Knock you down and beat you up and give your ass a kick.
When push comes to shove, you're afraid of love.

[richblueyes]

Oh no!
What's happening to my brain?
I can't believe this is happening
Again!
Lava on my lips I flips, wake up think I have a cramp
I'm trying to shove the lava lamp up my father's ass
I think I'm out of gas, man, I need another mask
I'd ask my mother, but I think she's laughing at the plants
A half a gram of graham crackers and some Van de Kamp's
I think I'll eat some Ambiens like they're candied yams
Cut a couple cadavers up and have a little snack
Abra-fucking-cadabra, motherfucker, look who's back
Just like a pendulum, Satan's pentagram swings

[rdiberna]

I feel the magic in your caress
I feel magic when I touch your dress
Silk and satin, leather and lace
Black panties with an angel's face
I see magic in your eyes
I hear the magic in your sighs
Just when I think I'm gonna get away
I hear those words that you always say
Abra abracadabra
I wanna reach out and grab ya

[richblueyes]

I heat up, I can't cool down
You got me spinnin'
Round and round
Round and round and round it goes
Where it stops, nobody knows
Every time you call my name
I heat up like a burnin' flame
Burnin' flame, full of desire
Kiss me, baby, let the fire get higher
Abra-abra-cadabra
I wanna reach out and grab ya
Abra-abra-cadabra
Abracadabra

[KEZHEAD]

My name is Mud
My name is Mud
Not to be confused with Bill or Jack or Pete or Dennis
My name is Mud and it's always been
'Cause I'm the most boring sonsabitch you've ever seen
I dress in blue, yes, navy blue
From head to toe I'm rather drab, except my patent shoes

[Brian129]

I washed my hands in muddy water
Washed my hands, but they didn't come clean
Tried to do what my daddy told me
But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream

[KEZHEAD]

Well, my daddy left home when I was three
Didn't leave very much to my mom and me
Except this old guitar and an empty bottle of booze
Now, I don't blame him 'cause he run and hid
But the meanest thing that my daddy ever did
Was before he left, he went and named me Sue
He must've thought that it was quite a joke
And I got a lot of laughs from a lots of folk
Seems I had to fight my whole life through
Some gal would giggle and I'd turn red
And some guy'd laugh and I'd bust his head
I tell you, life ain't easy for a boy named Sue

[rdiberna]

This old guitar ain't mine to keep
It's mine to play for a while
This old guitar ain't mine to keep
It's only mine for a while
