Why don't you hum me a few bars... - Page 106

**Old Jud** · December 11th, 2020, 06:31 PM

My name it means nothing, my fortune is less
My future is shrouded in dark wilderness
Sunshine is far away, clouds linger on
Everything I posessed, now they are gone
They are gone
They are gone
Oh, where can I go to and what can I do?
Nothing can please me, only thoughts are of you
You just left when I begged you to stay
I've not stopped crying since you went away
You went away
You went away…

Solitude - Black Sabbath.

Her love is red hot when she comes undone
Never thought gettin' burned could be so much fun
Always comin' up with something new
Yea, that woman taught me a thing or two

She's on fire
My baby's on fire

We go out driving in my 6.6 yea
Bypass the city head straight for the sticks
Shut off the lights
Turn off the key
No sooner set the brake she jumps on top of me

Church blew up in Birmingham
Four little black girls killed for no goddamn good reason
All this hate and violence can't come to no good end
A stain on the good name.
A whole lot of good people dragged through the blood and glass
Blood stains on their good names and all of us take the blame

Meanwhile in North Alabama, Wilson Pickett comes to town
To record that sweet soul music, to get that Muscle Shoals sound

Meanwhile in North Alabama, Aretha Franklin comes to town
To record that sweet soul music, to get that Muscle Shoals sound

And out in California, a rock star from Canada writes a couple of great songs about the
Bad shit that went down
"Southern Man" and "Alabama" certainly told some truth
But there were a lot of good folks down here and Neil Young wasn't around

Meanwhile in North Alabama, Lynyrd Skynyrd came to town
To record with Jimmy Johnson at Muscle Shoals Sound
And they met some real good people, not racist pieces of shit
And they wrote a song about it and that song became a hit

Ronnie and Neil Ronnie and Neil
Rock stars today ain't half as real
Speaking their minds on how they feel
Let them guitars blast for Ronnie and Neil

Day after day, day after day,
We stuck, nor breath nor motion;
As idle as a painted ship
Upon a painted ocean.

Water, water, every where,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink.

The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Iron Maiden with due credit given to Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

The poem also inspired Albatross by Fleetwood Mac.

(Oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi)

See me ride out of the sunset
On your colour TV screen
Out for all that I can get
If you know what I mean
Women to the left of me
And women to the right
Ain't got no gun
Ain't got no knife
Don't you start no fight

'Cause I'm T.N.T., I'm dynamite
(T.N.T.) and I'll win the fight
(T.N.T.) I'm a power load
(T.N.T.) watch me explode

I'm dirty, mean, and mighty unclean
I'm a wanted man
Public enemy number one
Understand?
So lock up your daughter
Lock up your wife
Lock up your back door
And run for your life
The man is back in town
So don't you mess me 'round

She says it's cold outside and she hands me my raincoat
She's always worried about things like that
She says it's all gonna end and it might as well be my fault
And she only sleeps when it's raining
And she screams, and her voice is straining

And she says baby
It's three a.m. I must be lonely
When she says baby
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes
And the rain's gonna wash away I believe it

Every night
I'm lying in bed
Holdin' you close in my dreams
Thinkin' about all the things that we said
And comin' apart at the seams
We try to talk it over
But the words come out too rough
I know you were tryin'
To give me the best of your love

Beautiful faces
Loud empty places
Look at the way that we live
Wastin' our time
On cheap talk and wine
Left us so little to give

Best Of My Love- Eagles

**jomama** · December 16th, 2020, 02:17 PM

Sometimes you're better off dead
There's a gun in your hand it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad too unstable
Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables
In a restaurant in a West end town
Call the police there's a mad man around
Running down underground
To a dive bar in a West end town

In a West end town a dead end world
The East end boys and West end girls
In a West end town in a dead end world
The East end boys and West end girls
West end girls

West End Girls- Pet Shop Boys

It didn't last much longer than the famous blink of an eye
And all that's left are memories and a feeble rest of life
I make my peace and think of all those yesteryears we shared
December daylight fades away the syringe is prepared
My breath is getting shorter
My moves are getting slow
My light is turning pale
I know it's time to go
So join me for the last mile
And stay here till the end
I'm tired but I am scared now
Give me just a little strength
No farewell in the hallway
Just hold me till I close my eyes leave from here
A quiet room
Four tiled walls and people dressed in green
I couldn't tell if behind their masks they commiserate with me
I turn my head
I see your tears as they're sparkling in the light
My body's numb
Come give me some courageousness tonight.

Time to go, by Mono Inc

In the gloom the gathering storm abates
In the ships gimlet eyes await
The call to arms to hammer at the gates
To blow them wide throw evil to its fate

All summers long the drills to build the machine
To turn men from flesh and blood to steel
From paper soldiers to bodies on the beach
From summer sands to Armageddon's reach

Overlord your master not your god
The enemy coast dawning grey with scud
These wretched souls puking shaking fear
To take a bullet for those who sent them here

The world's alight the cliffs erupt in flame
No escape remorseless shrapnel rains
Drowning men no chance for a warrior's fate
A choking death enter hell's gates

Sliding we go
Only fear on our side
To the edge of the wire
And we rush with the tide
Oh, the water is red
With the blood of the dead
But I'm still alive
Pray to God I survive

How long on this longest day
'Till we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Till we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Till we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Till we finally make it through

The Longest Day - Iron Maiden
