Hitting every pocket on my shirt, pants and overcoat And I'm hitting them again but I don't know where I put my notes Clearing my throat, and gripping the lectern I smile and face my audience Clearing his throat and smiling with his hands on the bathroom sink
And when I lean my head against the frosted shower stall I see stuff through the glass that I don't recognize at all

"She came in through the bathroom window Protected by a silver spoon But now she sucks her thumb and wanders By the banks of her own lagoon
Didn't anybody tell her? Didn't anybody see? Sunday's on the phone to Monday, Tuesday's on the phone to me"
-Beatles "She Came In Through the Bathroom Window"
I knew this song looked familiar, it was already posted, here's another:
"Terror rains drenchin', quenchin' tha thirst of tha power dons That five sided fist-a-gon Tha rotten sore on tha face of mother earth gets bigger Tha triggers cold empty ya purse
Rally round tha family With a pocket full of shells"
-Rage Against the Machine "Bulls On Parade"

Ten fingers we have each Nine planets around the sun repeat Eight ball is the last if you triumphant be Seven oceans pummel the shores of the sea
It's a typical situation In these typical times Too many choices
Everybody's happy Everybody's free We'll keep the big door open And everyone'll come around Why are you different Why are you that way If you don't step in line We'll lock you away
Six senses keeping Five around a sense of self Four seasons turn on and turn off I can see three corners from this corner Two is a perfect number But one

"Make his fight on the hill in the early day Constant chill deep inside Shouting gun on they run through the endless grey On they fight for they are right, yes but who's to say? For a hill men would kill why? they do not know Suffered wounds test their pride Men of five still alive through the raging glow Gone insane from the pain that they surely know
For whom the bell tolls Time marches on For whom the bell tolls"

"I was twenty-one years when I wrote this song. I'm twenty-two now but I won't be for long Time hurries on. And the leaves that are green turn to brown, And they wither with the wind, And they crumble in your hand.

you almost always pick the best times to drop the worst lines you almost made me cry again this time another false alarm red flashing lights well this time I'm not going to watch myself die I think I made it a game to play your game and let myself cry I buried myself aive on the inside so I could shut you out and let you go away for a long time ---The Used, buried myself alive
***Martha, who sings that song that you listed last? it looks kinda interesting, I'd like to look up the rest of the lyrics.

"When I find myself in times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me Speaking words of wisdom, let it be. And in my hour of darkness She is standing right in front of me Speaking words of wisdom, let it be. Let it be, let it be. Whisper words of wisdom, let it be."
-- Beatles
deadguy, sorry I forgot to put the artist. It's Paul Simon (& Garfunkel, but he's just the singer), on ther album Sounds of Silence.

I thought it was funny when you missed the train. When I rang you at home, they said you'd left yesterday. I thought it was strange when your car was found by the tree in Ennis where we used to hang around.
Dear Isobel, I hope you're well and what you've done is right. Oh it's been such hell, I wish you well. I hope you're safe tonight. It's been a long day coming and long will it last, When it's last day leaving, I'm helping it pass by loving you more.

If I die see you won't be so close to me And I won't be the one Who sticks around If I'm awake see you won't go to sleep, I promise And I won't be the one Who lets you down No, I won't let you down No, I won't let you down

I lost my heart under the bridge That little girl So much to me And now I moan, and now I holler She'll never know just what I found That blue-eyed girl she said no more And that blue-eyed girl became blue-eyed whore Down by the water I took her hand Just like my daughter See her again

emperor palpatine I think there's a rule against using the same song over again, but I choose to ignore that rule in the name of making the game continue. Besides, I like the Beatles.

Come away with me in the night Come away with me And I will write you a song
Come away with me on a bus Come away where they cant tempt us With their lies
I want to walk with you On a cloudy day In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high So wont you try to come
Come away with me and we'll kiss On a mountaintop Come away with me And I'll never stop loving you
And I want to wake up with the rain Falling on a tin roof While I'm safe there in your arms So all I ask is for you To come away with me in the night Come away with me
-Norah Jones, Come Away With Me
(Yeah, I know that "you" is pretty cheap, but I like the song. )

I hear the sound on the top of my roof, The clattering clop of a dozen white hooves. The Producer has come! On his horse Silver Grey, To take me AWAY to the land of LA, And make me a star in the film of my life: Me, Rosie, in "Very Far AWAY!"
-- "Very Far Away", from Really Rosie the Musical.
(Hey, Ralphie - I love that song! Most spiff.)

"Tonight, tonight, Won't be just any night, Tonight there will be no morning star. Tonight, tonight, I'll see my love tonight. And for us, stars will stop where they are. Today The minutes seem like hours, The hours go so slowly, And still the sky is light . . . Oh moon, grow bright, And make this endless day endless night!"

What's he building in there... I'll tell you one thing he's not building a play house for the children what's he building in there?
Now what's that sound from under the door? He's pounding nails into a hardwood floor... and I swear to G** I heard someone moaning low... and I keep seeing the blue light of a T.V. show... He has a router and a table saw... and you won't believe what Mr. Sticha saw There's poison beneath the sink of course... But there's also enough formaldehyde to choke a horse... What's he building in there? What the h*** is he building in there? I heard he has an ex-wife in some place called Mayors Income, Tennessee and he used to have a consulting business in Indonesia... but what is he building in there? What the h*** is he building in there?

I would die for you, I would kill for you, I will steal for you, I'd do time for you, I will wait for you, I'd make room for you, I'd sail ships for you, to be close to you, to be a part of you, 'Cause I believe in you, I believe in you, I would die for you.

I can't find the rhyme in all my reason I've lost sense of time and all seasons I feel I've been beaten down By the words of men who have no grounds I can't sleep beneath the trees of wisdom When your ax has cut the roots that feed them Forked tongues in bitter mouths Can drive a man to bleed from inside out

Blinded by the whiteness, staring at the sun. I'm wishing that I had wings, so that I could become one. Would you help me if I wanted to die? I could ride on with horses tonight.

Midway hawkers calling Try your luck with me Merry-go-round wheezing The same old melody A thousand ten cent wonders Who could ask for more? A pocketful of silver The key to heaven's door
Lakeside Park Willows in the breeze Lakeside Park So many memories Laughing rides Midway lights Shining stars on summer nights
Days of barefoot freedom Racing with the waves Nights of starlit secrets Crackling driftwood flames Drinking by the lighthouse Smoking on the pier Still we saw the magic Fading every year
Everyone would gather On the twenty-fourth of May Sitting in the sand to watch the fireworks display Dancing fires on the beach Singing songs together Though it's just a memory some memories last forever
-Lakeside Park, Rush

Everything is open Nothing is set in stone Rivers turn to oceans Oceans tide you home Home is where the heart is But your heart had to roam Drifting over bridges Never to return Watching bridges burn
You're driftwood floating underwater Breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces Just driftwood, hollow and of no use Waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you

They'd never let us leave You took your time so too late Missing what you've never had I'll be the only one that knows just how we've been abused
So you see I tried I cannot ever displace You see I'm jaded at times From nowhere leaving this place So you see me die Right in front of your face See, I'm jaded at times From nowhere leaving this place

I’m sick of the tension / sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place / to feed your greed - While I find a place to rest I want to be in another place I hate when you say you don’t understand (You’ll see it's not meant to be) I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy A place for my head ---Linkin Park, A place for my head click here for the rest of the lyrics.
