Needle in the Hay by Elliott Smith
Your hand on his arm
Haystack charm around your neck
Strung out and thin
Calling some friend, trying to cash some check
He's acting dumb
That's what you've come to expect
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
He's wearing your clothes
Head down to toes, a reaction to you
You say you know what he did
But you idiot kid, you don't have a clue
Sometimes they just get caught in the eye, you're pulling him through
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Now on the bus
Nearly touching this dirty retreat
Falling out 6th and powell, a dead sweat in my teeth
Gonna walk walk walk
Four more blocks, plus the one in my brain
Down downstairs to the man, he's gonna make it all okay
I can't be myself
I can't be myself
And I don't want to talk
I'm taking the cure
So I can be quiet whenever I want
So leave me alone
You ought to be proud that I'm getting good marks
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
I THINK THIS CAN ALSO BE SUNG TO THE TURKEY IN THE STRAW

Kiss Off by Violent Femmes
I need someone, a person to talk to
Someone who'd care to love
Could it be you?
Could it be you?
The situation gets rough, and I start to panic
It's not enough, it's just a habit
And, kid, you're sick
Well, darling, this is it
Well, you can all just kiss off into the air
Behind my back, I can see them stare
They'll hurt me bad, but I won't mind
They'll hurt me bad, they do it all the time (yeah, yeah!)
Yeah, they do it all the time (yeah, yeah!)
They do it all the time (do it all the time!)
They do it all the time (do it all the time!)
They do it all the time, do it all the time
I hope you know that this will go down on your permanent record!
Oh, yeah? Well, don't get so distressed
Did I happen to mention that I'm impressed?
I take one, one, one 'cause you left me
And two, two, two for my family
And three, three, three for my heartache
And four, four, four for my headaches
And five, five, five for my lonely
And six, six, six for my sorrow
And seven, seven for no tomorrow
And eight, eight, I forget what eight was for
But nine, nine, nine for the lost gods
Ten, ten, ten, ten for everything, everything, everything
Well, you can all just kiss off into the air
Behind my back, I can see them stare
They'll hurt me bad, but I won't mind
They'll hurt me bad, they do it all the time (yeah, yeah!)
Yeah, they do it all the time (yeah, yeah!)
They do it all the time (do it all the time!)
They do it all the time (do it all the time!)
They do it all the time, do it all the time, do it all the time
WHY? WHY DO THEY DO IT ALL THE TIME? YEAH? YEAH?
Someone who'd care to love
Could it be you?
Could it be you?
The situation gets rough, and I start to panic
It's not enough, it's just a habit

They'll hurt me bad, but I won't mind

Keep Breathing by Ingred Michaelshon
The storm is coming but I don't mind
People are dying, I close my blinds
All that I know is I'm breathing now
I want to change the world
Instead I sleep
I want to believe in more than you and me
But all that I know is I'm breathing
All I can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing now
All that I know is I'm breathing
All I can do is keep breathing.
All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing now
KEEP MOVING IS BETTER ADVICE. ANYONE CAN BREATHE.

Holding on for Life by Broken Bells
Girl, take a seat
Rest your weary bones
Your secret's safe
In my hands
Tell me about the years and
Let me buy an hour

The Devil Made Texas By Ed Miller
Oh, the devil in hell they say he was chained,
And there for a thousand years he remained;
He neither complained nor did he groan,
But decided he'd start up a hell of his own,
Where he could torment the souls of men
Without being shut in a prison pen;
So he asked the Lord if he had any sand
Left over from making this great land.
The Lord He said, "Yes, I have plenty on hand,
But it's away down south on the Rio Grande,
And to tell you the truth, the stuff is so poor
I doubt it will do for a hell anymore."
The Devil went down and looked over the truck,
And he said if it came as a gift he was stuck,
For when he'd examined it carefully and well
He decided the place was too dry for a hell. But the Lord to just get the stuff off His hands
He promised the Devil He'd water the lands,
For He had some old water that was of no use,
A regular bog hole that stunk like the deuce.
So the contract was signed and the deed was given,
And the Lord went up to his spread up in heaven.
The Devil soon saw he had everything needed
To make a good hell and I'll say he succeeded.
He scattered tarantulas over the road,
Put thorns on the cactus and horns on the toads,
He sprinkled the sand with millions of ants
So the man that sits down must wear soles on his pants.
He lengthened the horns of the Texas steer,
And added an inch to the jack rabbit's ear;
He put water puppies in all of the lakes,
And under the rocks he put rattlesnakes.
He hung thorns and brambles on all of the trees.
He mixed up the dust with jiggers and fleas.
The rattlesnakes bites you, the scorpion stings,
The mesquito delights you by buzzing his wings.
The heat in the summer's a hundred and ten--
Too cool for the devil and too hot for men,
And all who remained in that climate soon bore
Stings, cuts, bites, scratches, and blisters galore.
He quickened the buck of the bronco steed
And poisoned the feet of the centipede.
The wild boar roams in the black chaparral.
It's a hell of a place that we've got for a hell.
He planted red pepper beside of the brooks;
The Mexicans use them in all that they cook.
Just dine with a Mexican and you will shout,
"I've got hell on the inside as well as the out!"
ITS FUNNY CUZ ITS TRUE

Heart of Gold by Neil Young
I want to live,
I want to give
I've been a miner for a heart of gold.
It's these expressions
I never give
That keep me searching for a heart of gold.
And I'm getting old.
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old.
I've been to Hollywood
I've been to Redwood
I crossed the ocean for a heart of gold.
I've been in my mind,
It's such a fine line
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold.
And I'm getting old.
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old.
Keep me searching for a heart of gold.
You keep me searching and I'm growing old.
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
I've been a miner for a heart of gold.
IF THERE IS A LIFE AFTER THIS ONE IT WILL BE LIKE STANDING IN THE RAIN ON A WARM SUMMER NIGHT AT RED ROCKS LISTENING TO NIEL YOUNG SING THIS SONG

The Distance by Cake
Reluctantly crouched at the starting line,
Engines pumping and thumping in time.
The green light flashes, the flags go up.
Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup.
They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank,
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank.
Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns.
Their prowess is potent and secretly stearn.
As they speed through the finish, the flags go down.
The fans get up and they get out of town.
The arena is empty except for one man,
Still driving and striving as fast as he can.
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup.
But he's driving and striving and hugging the turns.
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns.
He's going the distance.
He's going for speed.
She's all alone
In her time of need.
Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse,
He's going the distance.
No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine,
He's haunted by something he cannot define.
Bowel-shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse,
Assail him, impale him with monster-truck force.
In his mind, he's still driving, still making the grade.
She's hoping in time that her memories will fade.
Cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup.
But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns.
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns.
Cause he's going the distance.
He's going for speed.
She's all alone
In her time of need.
Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
He's racing and pacing and plotting the course,

He's going the distance.
He's going for speed.
He's going the distance.

Dancing Through Life by Idina Menzel
The trouble with schools is
They always try to teach the wrong lesson
Believe me, I've been kicked out
Of enough of them to know
They want you to become less callow
Less shallow
But I say: why invite stress in?
Stop studying strife
And learn to live "the unexamined life"...
Dancing through life
Skimming the surface
Gliding where turf is smooth
Life's more painless
For the brainless
Why think too hard?
When it's so soothing
Dancing through life
No need to tough it
When you can sluff it off as I do
Nothing matters
But knowing nothing matters
It's just life
So keep dancing through...
Dancing through life
Swaying and sweeping
And always keeping cool
Life is fraught-less
When you're thoughtless
Those who don't try
Never look foolish
Dancing through life
Mindless and careless
Make sure you're where less
Trouble is rife
Woes are fleeting
Blows are glancing
When you're dancing
Through life...
So-what's the most swankified place in town?
[Galinda:]
That would be the Ozdust Ballroom.
[Fiyero:]
Sounds perfect.
Let's go down to the Ozdust Ballroom
We'll meet there later tonight
We can dance till it's light
Find the prettiest girl...
Give her a whirl
Right on down to the Ozdust Ballroom
Come on
Follow me
You'll be happy to be there...
[Students:]
Dancing Through Life
Down at the Ozdust...
[Fiyero:]
If only because dust
Is what we come to
[Students:]
Nothing matters
But knowing nothing matters
It's just life...
[Fiyero:]
So keep dancing through...
[Boq:]
Miss Galinda, I hope you'll save at least one dance for me. I'll be right here. Waiting. All night.
[Galinda:]
Oh-that's so kind. But you know what would be even kinder?
See that tragic'ly beautiful girl
The one in the chair
It seems so unfair
We should go on a spree
And not she
Gee-
I know someone would be my hero
If that someone were
To go invite her...
[Boq:]
Well maybe, I could invite her?
[Galinda:]
Oh, Boq, really?
You would do that for me?
[Boq:]
I would do anything for you Miss Galinda.
[Galinda:]
So...
[Fiyero:]
So I'll be picking you up around eight?
[Galinda:]
After all-
Now that we've met one another
[Galinda & Fiyero:]
It's clear we deserve each other
[Galinda:]
You're perfect...
[Fiyero:]
You're perfect...
[Galinda & Fiyero:]
So we're perfect together
Born to be forever...
Dancing Through Life...
[Nessa:]
Oh, Elphaba-Isn't it wonderful?
Fin'lly for this one night
I'm about to have a fun night
With this Munchkin boy
Galinda found for me
And I only wish there were
Something I could do for her
To repay her
Elphaba, see
We deserve each other
And Galinda helped it come true
We deserve each other
Me and Boq -
Please, Elphaba, try to understand.
[Elphaba:]
I do...
Galinda, listen. Nessa and I were talking about you just now.
[Galinda:]
And I was just talking about you. I thought you might want to wear this hat to the party tonight!
It's really-uh-sharp
Don't you think?
You know black is this year's pink
You deserve each other
This hat and you
You're both so smart
You deserve each other
So here
Out of the goodness of my heart
[Boq:]
Listen, Nessa
[Nessa:]
Yes?
[Boq:]
Uh, Nessa.
I've got something to confess, a
Reason why, well-
Why I asked you here tonight
Now I know it isn't fair...
[Nessa:]
Oh, Boq. I know why.
[Boq:]
You do?
[Nessa:]
It's because I'm in this chair
And you felt sorry for me
Well isn't that right?
[Boq:]
No! no! It's because... uh... because...
Because you are so beautiful
[Nessa:]
Oh, Boq! I think you're wonderful!
And we deserve each other
Don't you see, this is our chance?
We deserve each other
Don't we, Boq?
[Boq:]
You know what?
Let's dance!
[Nessa:]
What?
[Boq:]
Let's Dance!
[Students:]
Dancing Through Life

And the strange thing:
Your life could end up changing

They want you to become less callow
Less shallow
But I say: why invite stress in?
Stop studying strife
And learn to live "the unexamined life"...
Dancing through life
Skimming the surface
Gliding where turf is smooth
Life's more painless
For the brainless
Why think too hard?
When it's so soothing
Dancing through life
No need to tough it
When you can sluff it off as I do
Nothing matters
But knowing nothing matters
It's just life
So keep dancing through...
Dancing through life
Swaying and sweeping
And always keeping cool
Life is fraught-less
When you're thoughtless
Those who don't try
Never look foolish
Dancing through life
Mindless and careless
Make sure you're where less
Trouble is rife
Woes are fleeting
Blows are glancing
When you're dancing
Through life...
So-what's the most swankified place in town?
[Galinda:]
That would be the Ozdust Ballroom.
[Fiyero:]
Sounds perfect.
Let's go down to the Ozdust Ballroom
We'll meet there later tonight
We can dance till it's light
Find the prettiest girl...
Give her a whirl
Right on down to the Ozdust Ballroom
Come on
Follow me
You'll be happy to be there...
[Students:]
Dancing Through Life
Down at the Ozdust...
[Fiyero:]
If only because dust
Is what we come to
[Students:]
Nothing matters
But knowing nothing matters
It's just life...
[Fiyero:]
So keep dancing through...
[Boq:]
Miss Galinda, I hope you'll save at least one dance for me. I'll be right here. Waiting. All night.
[Galinda:]
Oh-that's so kind. But you know what would be even kinder?
See that tragic'ly beautiful girl
The one in the chair
It seems so unfair
We should go on a spree
And not she
Gee-
I know someone would be my hero
If that someone were
To go invite her...
[Boq:]
Well maybe, I could invite her?
[Galinda:]
Oh, Boq, really?
You would do that for me?
[Boq:]
I would do anything for you Miss Galinda.
[Galinda:]
So...
[Fiyero:]
So I'll be picking you up around eight?
[Galinda:]
After all-
Now that we've met one another
[Galinda & Fiyero:]
It's clear we deserve each other
[Galinda:]
You're perfect...
[Fiyero:]
You're perfect...
[Galinda & Fiyero:]
So we're perfect together
Born to be forever...
Dancing Through Life...
[Nessa:]
Oh, Elphaba-Isn't it wonderful?
Fin'lly for this one night
I'm about to have a fun night
With this Munchkin boy
Galinda found for me
And I only wish there were
Something I could do for her
To repay her
Elphaba, see
We deserve each other
And Galinda helped it come true
We deserve each other
Me and Boq -
Please, Elphaba, try to understand.
[Elphaba:]
I do...
Galinda, listen. Nessa and I were talking about you just now.
[Galinda:]
And I was just talking about you. I thought you might want to wear this hat to the party tonight!
It's really-uh-sharp
Don't you think?
You know black is this year's pink
You deserve each other
This hat and you
You're both so smart
You deserve each other
So here
Out of the goodness of my heart
[Boq:]
Listen, Nessa
[Nessa:]
Yes?
[Boq:]
Uh, Nessa.
I've got something to confess, a
Reason why, well-
Why I asked you here tonight
Now I know it isn't fair...
[Nessa:]
Oh, Boq. I know why.
[Boq:]
You do?
[Nessa:]
It's because I'm in this chair
And you felt sorry for me
Well isn't that right?
[Boq:]
No! no! It's because... uh... because...
Because you are so beautiful
[Nessa:]
Oh, Boq! I think you're wonderful!
And we deserve each other
Don't you see, this is our chance?
We deserve each other
Don't we, Boq?
[Boq:]
You know what?
Let's dance!
[Nessa:]
What?
[Boq:]
Let's Dance!
[Students:]

Dude (Looks Like a Lady) by Arrowsmith
That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady
That, that dude looks like a lady
Cruise into a bar on the shore
Her picture graced the grime on the door
She's a long lost love at first bite
Baby maybe you're wrong but you know it's all right
That's right

She had the body of a Venus, Lord imagine my surprise.

Shadow Dancing by Andy Gibb
You got me looking at that heaven in your eyes
I was chasing your direction, I was telling you no lies
And I was loving you
When the words are said, baby, I lose my head
And in a world of people, there's only you and I
There ain't nothing come between us in the end
How can I hold you when you ain't even mine?
Only you can see me through
I leave it up to you
Do it light, taking me through the night
Shadow dancing, baby you do it right, uh-huh
Give me more, drag me across the floor
Shadow dancing, all this and nothing more
All that I need is just one moment in your arms
I was chasing your affection, I was doing you no harm
And I was loving you
Make it shine, make it rain, baby I know my way
I need that sweet sensation of living in your love
I can't breath when you're away, it pulls me down
You are the question and the answer am I
Only you can see me through
I leave it up to you
Do it light, taking me through the night
Shadow dancing, baby you do it right
Give me more, drag me across the floor
Shadow dancing, all this and nothing more
And in this world of people, there's only you and I
There ain't nothing come between us in the end
How can I hold you when you ain't even mine?
Only you can see me through
I leave it up to you, oh
Do it light, taking me through the night
Shadow dancing, baby you do it right
Give me more, drag me across the floor
Shadow dancing, all this and nothing more
Do it light, taking me through the night
Shadow dancing, baby you do it right
Give me more, drag me across the floor
Shadow dancing, all this and nothing more
Do it light, taking me through the night
Shadow dancing, baby you do it right
Give me more, drag me across the floor
Shadow dancing, all this and nothing more
Do it light, taking me through the night
Shadow dancing, baby you do it right
Give me more, drag me across the floor
Shadow dancing, all this and nothing more
THIS SONG IS ABOUT A MAN'S DREAMS OF BECOMING A MOP
I was chasing your direction, I was telling you no lies
And I was loving you

And in a world of people, there's only you and I
There ain't nothing come between us in the end
How can I hold you when you ain't even mine?
Only you can see me through
I leave it up to you

Too Bad On Your Birthday by Ram Jam
I heard your best friend say, you shouldn't have treated her that way
You could've been a little bit kinder
He didn't send you no note, didn't give you no gift
He didn't even try to find ya
Well, that's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
I said it's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
You were my love once, it lasted several months
And I was in love even blinder
When you left me I cried, all my tears haven't dried
So I'm leavin' this little reminder
Oh, it's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
Oh, too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
And now you're the girl with cake on her face
Yeah, you're the one who's cryin'
Blow out the candles and make a wish
If you need a drink, babe I'm buyin', yeah
Too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
I said it's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
Woe, too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
I said that's too bad, that's too bad
Too bad on your birthday
Too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
I said it's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
That's too bad
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY FRIEND

Every Day I Have The Blues by B.B. King
Everyday, everyday I have the blues
Everyday, everyday I have the blues
When you see me worried baby
Because it's you I hate to lose
Oh nobody loves me, nobody seems to care
Yes nobody loves me, nobody seems to care
Speaking of bad luck and trouble
Well you know I had my share
I'm gonna pack my suitcase, move on down the line
Yes I'm gonna pack my suitcase, move on down the line
Where there ain't nobody worried
And there ain't nobody crying
GOODBYE MR. KING
Everyday, everyday I have the blues
When you see me worried baby
Because it's you I hate to lose
Oh nobody loves me, nobody seems to care
Yes nobody loves me, nobody seems to care
Speaking of bad luck and trouble
Well you know I had my share
I'm gonna pack my suitcase, move on down the line
Yes I'm gonna pack my suitcase, move on down the line
Where there ain't nobody worried
And there ain't nobody crying
GOODBYE MR. KING

Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down) by Nancy Sinatra
I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down.
Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
Remember when we used to play?
Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I used to shoot you down.
Music played, and people sang
Just for me, the church bells rang.
Now he's gone, I don't know why
And 'til this day, sometimes I cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie.
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down...
UMA THERMAN IS HOT!

Ziggy Stardust by David Bowie
Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Wierd and Gilly,
And The Spiders from Mars.
He played it left hand, but made it too far,
Became the special man,
Then we were Ziggy's Band.
Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo
Like some cat from Japan, he could lick 'em by smiling
He could leave 'em to hang
Here came on so loaded man, well hung and snow white tan.
So where were the spiders while the fly tried to break our balls?
Just the beer light to guide us.
So we bitched about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands?
Ziggy played for time, jiving us that we were Voodoo
The kids was just crass,
He was the naz
With God given ass
He took it all too far
But boy could he play guitar.
Making love with his ego Ziggy sucked up into his mind
Like a leper messiah
When the kids had killed the man
I had to break up the band
Ziggy played guitar
I THINK ZIGGY STARDUST IS BOB MARLEY'S SON. HE DONT LOOK MUCH LIKE HIM THOUGH.
And The Spiders from Mars.
He played it left hand, but made it too far,
Became the special man,
Then we were Ziggy's Band.
Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo

When the Night Was Young by Robbie Robertson
We headed straight south in a sundown light
Highway 61 through the Delta night
We shared the backroads with cardsharks and grifters
Tent show evangelists and Luke the Drifter
What is lost, what is missing
What's been gone way too long
We had dreams when the night was young
We were believers when the night was young
We could change the world, stop the war
Never seen nothing like this before
But that was back when the night was young
The sign reads God bless America guns and ammo
I'm not sure that's what He means
Sign reads repent the end is near
I'm not sure that's what we need
Get your heart beating in the right direction
That's when you make a real connection
We had dreams when the night was young
We were believers when the night was young
We could change the world, stop the war
Never seen nothing like this before
That was back when the night was young
Now Andy Warhol's in the hotel lobby
He's waiting for the late night muse
But she won't be back before morning
She's gone downtown to hear some blues
Like the sun rising out of the sea
It's how you embrace the mystery
We had dreams when the night was young
We were believers when the night was young
We could change the world, stop the war
Never seen nothing like this before
But that was back when the night was...
We had dreams when the night was young
We were believers when the night was young
We could change the world, stop the war
Never seen nothing like this before
But that was way back when the night was young
THE NIGHT IS DEFINATELY NO LONGER YOUNG AND NIETHER ARE WE

Let Us Slay by Gwar
Don't give them a sword and then not let them use it
Or sent them to war, and then make them lose it
This is a bomb, don't want to defuse it
Death is the answer, go forth and choose it
Let us slay
Let them slay, let them slay [x3]
The lust for blood won't go away
Let us slay
Let them slay, let them slay [x3]
It is the era of calamity
And I see this with perfect clarity
And there never was an illusion of parity
I've got no time for your crippled christ
We have no need for your crippled christ
And we never lacked for your advice
We don't have to hide our genocide
They'll fear us more when they know the we don't lie
It's gone beyond hatred this time
You love death, yet call it a crime
I twist the dagger that's deep in your guts
I'll put an end to it this time
[Solo]
On your knees - Pray
It is your destiny
On your feet - Slay
Obedience through slavery
Don't give them a sword and then not let them use it
Or sent them to war, and then make them lose it
This is a bomb, don't want to defuse it
Death is the answer, death is the answer
Total control
We own your soul
No time for life
Time for the knife
Time for the sword
Fetus is cored
Total mutation
Necro-mutilation
The perfect life form
Born for porn
Let us slay
Let them slay, let them slay [x3]
The lust for blood won't go away
Let us slay
Let them slay, let them slay [x3]
We've got no time for your crippled christ
And we never lacked for your advice
Lie after lie, lie, lie
I do believe its almost time
The crippled christ, the crippled christ
The crippled christ, the crippled christ
The crippled christ, the crippled christ
I do believe its almost time
You're always calling for the sacrifice
And the body count is very nice
Lie after lie, lie, lie, lie
I do believe its time do die
POETRY... PURE POETRY.

What's Next by Godsmack
Freezing me ... take me by my hand
Show me things I can't understand
For now, I'll wait and see what we become
What will become of me
And time's not gonna wait, not for one day
It's gonna break us the same way
Some of us love - and some of us hate
And some of us fear the end won't come our way
In death - life - what's next?
The only thing certain is death
Life, what's next? Is it the only thing?
Holding tight ... those things that we all love
Not knowing why, or where we go when it's all done
So take all you can take
Learn from your life
Make no mistake it's all part of the way
Answer me why... Why we're all blind
Why we're all blind from our certainty
Some of us love - and some of us hate
And some of us fear the end won't come our way
In death - life - what's next?
The only thing certain is death
Life, what's next? Is it the only thing?
So many questions
Hoping answers somehow come to me
It's getting harder to believe
I'm trying to make sense of this matter
Knowing I can see these circumstances helping me know I know nothing
I know nothing
Some of us love - and some of us hate
And some of us fear the end won't come our way
In death - life - what's next?
The only thing certain is death
Life, what's next? Is it the only thing?
In death - life - what's next?
The only thing certain is death
Life, what's next? Is it the only thing?
Is it the only thing for me?
WELL I WAS GOING TO WRITE HIM A LETTER AND TELL HIM BUT THEN HE SAYS IT RIGHT THERE IN THE SONG
Show me things I can't understand
For now, I'll wait and see what we become
What will become of me
And time's not gonna wait, not for one day
It's gonna break us the same way
Some of us love - and some of us hate
And some of us fear the end won't come our way
In death - life - what's next?
The only thing certain is death
Life, what's next? Is it the only thing?
Holding tight ... those things that we all love
Not knowing why, or where we go when it's all done
So take all you can take
Learn from your life
Make no mistake it's all part of the way
Answer me why... Why we're all blind
Why we're all blind from our certainty
Some of us love - and some of us hate
And some of us fear the end won't come our way
In death - life - what's next?
The only thing certain is death
Life, what's next? Is it the only thing?
So many questions
Hoping answers somehow come to me
It's getting harder to believe
I'm trying to make sense of this matter
Knowing I can see these circumstances helping me know I know nothing
I know nothing
Some of us love - and some of us hate
And some of us fear the end won't come our way
In death - life - what's next?
The only thing certain is death
Life, what's next? Is it the only thing?
In death - life - what's next?
The only thing certain is death
Life, what's next? Is it the only thing?
Is it the only thing for me?
WELL I WAS GOING TO WRITE HIM A LETTER AND TELL HIM BUT THEN HE SAYS IT RIGHT THERE IN THE SONG

When a Man Loves a Woman by Percy Sledge
When a man loves a woman,
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else,
He'd change the world for the good thing he's found.
If she is bad, he can't see it,
She can do no wrong,
Turn his back on his best friend if he put her down.
When a man loves a woman,
He'll spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs.
He'd give up all his comforts
And sleep out in the rain,
If she said that's the way
It ought to be.
Well, this man loves you, woman.
I gave you everything I have,
Tryin' to hold on to your heartless love.
Baby, please don't treat me bad.
When a man loves a woman,
Down deep in his soul,
She can bring him such misery.
If she is playin' him for a fool,
He's the last one to know.
Lovin' eyes can never see.
When a man loves a woman
He can do her no wrong,
He can never want
Some other girl.
Yes,When a man loves a woman
I know exactly how he feels,
'Cause baby, baby, you're my world
When a man loves a woman....
THIS SONG RESINATES VERY STRONGLY WITH DUDES UNDER THE AGE OF 25. THEN A DUDE WAKES UP AND THINKS "WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING OUT HERE IN THE RAIN? JUST BECAUSE SHE SAYS I GOTTA SLEEP OUT IN THE RAIN?" THEN HE LEAVES HER. THIS SONG DOES NOT RESINATE WITH GAY DUDES. GAY DUDES DONT MAKE THIER DUDE SLEEP OUT IN THE RAIN.
