"Hey Mama"

I wanna tell the whole world about a friend of mine
This little light of mine and I'm finna let it shine
I'm finna take yall back to them better times
I'm finna talk about my mama if yall don't mind
I was three years old, when you and I moved to the Chi
Late December, harsh winter gave me a cold
You fixed me up something that was good for my soul
Famous homemade chicken soup, can I have another bowl?
You work late nights just to keep on the lights
Mommy got me training wheels so I could keep on my bike
And you would give anything in this world
Michael Jackson leather and a glove, but didn't give me a curl
And you never put no man over me
And I love you for that mommy cant you see?
Seven years old, caught you with tears in your eyes
Cuz a nigga cheatin, telling you lies, then I started to cry
As we knelt on the kitchen floor
I said mommy Imma love you till you don't hurt no more
And when I'm older, you aint gotta work no more
And Imma get you that mansion that we couldn't afford
See you're, unbreakable, unmistakable
Highly capable, lady that's makin loot
A livin legend too, just look at what heaven do
Send us an angel, and I thank you (Hey Mama)
Forrest Gump mama said, life is like a box of chocolates
My mama told me go to school, get your doctorate
Somethin to fall back on, you could profit with
But still supported me when I did the opposite
Now I feel like it's things I gotta get
Things I gotta do, just to prove to you
You was getting through, can the choir please
Give me a verse of "You, Are So Beautiful To Me"?
Can't you see, you're like a book of poetry
Maya Angelou, Nicky Giovanni, turn one page and there's my mommy
Come on mommy just dance wit me, let the whole world see your dancing feet
Now when I say Hey, yall say Mama, now everybody answer me (Hey Mama)
Tell your job you gotta fake em out
Since you brought me in this world, let me take you out
To a restaurant, upper echelon
Imma get you a jag, whatever else you want
Just tell me what kind of S-Type Donda West like?
Tell me the perfect color so I make it just right
It don't gotta be Mother's Day, or your birthday
For me to just call and say (Hey Mama)


Nice, and heartwarming. :loveanim:

"Take Me Away"
By Oasis.

Just when it falls apart
And when it’s time to start
Will you sit down here for another day
And when it’s time to be
All the things that we
Are wishing away for another day

Cos me and my soul we know where we’re goin
We’re goin where the grass is free, and the air is clean and the
Good times are growin'
So take me away
Just for today
Cos I’m sad here on my own
I’d like to be
Under the sea
But I’d probaly need a phone

And just when it falls apart
And just when it’s time to start
Will you sit down here for another day

Cos me and my soul we know where we’re goin
We’re goin where the grass is free, the air is clean and the
Good times are growin'
So take me away
Just for today
Cos I’m sad here on my own
I’d like to be
Under the sea
But I'd probaly need a phone
I could be you
If I wanted to
But I’ve never got the time
You could be me
And pretty soon you will be
But you’re gonna need a line

Need a line,
Need a line,
Need a line...

Invincible - Muse

Follow through
Make our dreams come true
Don't give up the fight
You will be allright
Cause there's no one like you
In the universe

Don't be afraid
What your mind conceives
You should make a stand
Stand up for what you believe
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible

And during the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please let's use this chance to
Turn things around
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible

Do it on your own
Makes no difference to me
What you leave behind
What you choose to be
and whatever they say
Your soul's unbreakable

And during the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please let's use this chance to
Turn things around
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible
Together we're invincible

And during the struggle
They will pull us down
Please, please let's use this chance to
Turn things around
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible

HERE I GO - Syd Barrett

This is a story 'bout a girl that I knew
she didn't like my songs
and that made me feel blue
she said: "a big band is far better than you"...

She don't rock 'n' roll, she don't like it
she don't do the stroll, well she don't do it right
well, ev'rythings wrong and my patience was gone
when I woke one morning
and remembered this song
O-oh-oh, kinda catchy, I hoped
that she would talk to me now
and even allow me to hold her hand
and forget that old band.

I strolled around to her pad
her light was off and that's bad
her sister said that my girl was gone
"But come inside, boy, and play, play, play me a song!"
I said "Yeah! Here I go"
She's kinda cute; don't you know,
That after a while of seeing her smile
I knew we could make it, make it in style!?

So now I've got all I need
She and I are in love, we've agreed
she likes this song and my others too
so now you see my world is...
because of this tune!
What a boon this tune!
I tell you soon
We'll be lying in bed, happily wed,
and I won't think of that girl
or what she said...

Yeah, I rediscovered it when I did a 'tribute day' to Syd Barrett when I learned of his passing. Great song though!

Has this been posted? Because it's genius in a paper bag.

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold,
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven..

There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure,
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings.
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder..
Ooh, it makes me wonder...

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder..
Ooh, it really makes me wonder...

And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long,
And the forest will echo with laughter.

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May Queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder...

Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know -
The piper's calling you to join him.
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind...

And as we wind on down the road,
Our shadows taller than our soul,
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard,
The tune will come to you at last,
When all are one and one is all,
To be a rock and not to roll...

...And she's buying a stairway to heaven...

Syd Barrett - Swan Lee [Silas Lang]

Swan Lee got up at the Running Foot pow-wow,
heading from the fire to his waiting canoe.
Chattering Squaw untied the wigwam door,
the chief blew smoke rings two by two!

The land in silence stands...

Swan Lee, his boat by the bank in the darkness,
loosened the rope in the creek is entwined.
A feather from the wing of a wild young eagle,
pointed to the land where his fortune he'd find

The land in silence stands

Swan Lee paddled on from the land of his fathers,
his eyes scanned the undergrowth on either side.
From the shore hung a hot, heavy, creature infested
tropic, Swan Lee had a bow by his side

The land in silence stands

Swan Lee kept time, half on land, half on water,
Grizzly bear and raccoon his fare.
He followed his ears to the great water fall,
Swan Lee knew deep down that his squaw was there!

The land in silence stands....

Suddenly the rush of the mighty great thunder,
confronted Swan Lee as his song he sang,
In the dawn, with his squaw, he was battling homewards
It was all written down by Long Silas Lang.

The land in silence stands...
The land in silence stands...
The land in silence stands.

Do You Remember Walter?

Walter, remember when the world was young
And all the girls knew Walter's name?
Walter, isn't it a shame the way our little world has changed?
Do you remember, Walter, playing cricket in the thunder and the rain?
Do you remember, Walter, smoking cigarettes behind your garden gate?
Yes, Walter was my mate,
But Walter, my old friend, where are you now?

Walter's name.
Walter, isn't it a shame the way our little world has changed?
Do you remember, Walter, how we said we'd fight the world so we'd be free.
We'd save up all our money and we'd buy a boat and sail away to sea.
But it was not to be.
I knew you then but do I know you now?

Walter, you are just an echo of a world I knew so long ago
If you saw me now you wouldn't even know my name.
I bet you're fat and married and you're always home in bed by half-past eight.
And if I talked about the old times you'd get bored and you'll have nothing more to say.
Yes people often change, but memories of people can remain.

Mellancholic story that couldn't be in another place besides the village gren. Ray = Genius.

Hate me, do it and do it again.
...And the lamb... lies down... on Broadway...

Early morning Manhattan,
Ocean winds blow on the land.
Movie-Palace is now undone,
The all-night watchmen have had their fun.
Sleeping cheaply on the midnight show,
It's the same old ending - time to go.
Get out!

It seems they cannot leave their dream.
There's something moving in the sidewalk steam -
And the lamb... lies down... on Broadway.

Nightime's flyers feel their pains.
Drugstore take down the chains.
Metal motion comes in bursts,
The gas station can quench that thirst.
Suspension cracked on unmade road
The trucker's eyes read 'overload'.

And out on the subway,
Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid exits into daylight,
Spraygun hid -
And the lamb... lies down... on Broadway.

The lamb seems right out of place,
Yet the Broadway street scene finds a focus in its face.
Somehow it's lying there brings a stillness to the air.
Though man-made light at night is very bright,
There's no whitewash victim,
As the neons dim
To the coat of white.

Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid wipes his gun -
He's forgotten what he did,
And the lamb... lies down... on Broadway.

Suzanne tired her work all done,
Thinks money - honey - be on - neon.
Cabman's velvet glove sounds the horn,
And the sawdust king spits out his scorn.
Wonder women you can draw your blind!
Don't look at me! I'm not your kind.
I'm Rael!

Something inside me has just begun,
Lord knows what I have done,
And the lamb... lies down... on Broadway.
On Broadway, on Broadway..

They say the lights are always bright on Broadway.
They say there's always magic in the air....

The Arctic Monkeys
"Despair in the Departure Lounge"


He's pining for her, in a people carrier,
There might be buildings and pretty things to see like that
But architecture won't do,
Although it might say a lot about the city or town
I don't care what they've got, keep on turning 'em down,
It don't say the funny things she does.
Don't even try and cheer him up,
Because, it just won't happen.

He's got the feeling again,
This time on the aeroplane
There might be tellies in the back of the seat infront,
But Rodney and Del won't do,
Although it might take your mind off the aches and the pains,
Like when he falls through the bar and you're feeling the same
'Cause she isn't there to hold your hand
She won't be waiting for you when you land
It feels like she's,
Just no where in the air
You could well be out on your ear
This thought comes closely followed by the fear
And the force of it,
Makes you feel a bit, ill.

Yesterday, I saw a girl,
Who looked like someone who you might knock about with,
And almost shouted.
And then reality kicked in within us.
It seems as we become the winners,
You lose a bit of summit,
And half wonder if you want it at all,
And don't say out, 'cause you've got no idea.
And she's still no where in the air,
The thought comes closely followed by the fear,
And the thought of it,
Makes you feel a bit, ill.

Despair in the depature lounge,
Just, wanting us to be around at 3.
No signal and low battery,
What's happened to me?

Baby slow down
The end is not as fun as the start
Please stay a child somewhere in your heart

I’ll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
And I kneel ‘cos I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you’re not

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don’t have to be shy about it

Some things you shouldn’t get too good at
Like smiling, crying and celebrity
Some people got way too much confidence baby

I’ll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel ‘cos I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you’re not

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don’t have to be shy about it, no
And you’ll never be alone
Come on now show your soul
You’ve been keeping your love under control

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don’t have to be shy about it
Everywhere you go you shout it
Oh my my

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel ‘cos I want you some more
I want you some more, I want you some more

TAKE IT FROM THE MAN

It's just like I said
They're fucking with your head
You ain't safe in your bed
Or even when your dead
They're out to school ya
So they can rule ya
They try to fool ya
Or just get to ya

And I seen it coming down
So I headed out of town
Because I'm quick like that

I seen them on tv
They even look like me
They swear they'll set me free
But that can't never be

But I know it's coming down
So I'm headed out of town
Because I'm quick like that
Always bounce right back

Stupid magazines
Sell you useless things
Silly as it seems
They even steal your dreams

And I know it's coming down
So I'm headed out of town
'Cause I'm quick like that
Never coming back
Man I know it's coming down
So I'm heading far from town
'Cause I'm smart like that
I ain't going back
Live my life for slack

'Cause I'm quick like that

- Anton A. Newcombe of The Brian Jonestown Massacre.
