Lyrical Response

[muppy]

I was sinking, and now I'm sunk
I was drinking, and now I'm drunk
Your songs remind me of swimming,
But somehow I forgot

[PastaJoe]

The best place I ever found
Wasn't close to any town
Was a little swimming ground
Everything just floating around

[muppy]

… I'd gladly lose me to find you
I'd gladly give up all I have
To find you, I'd suffer anything and be glad

 

… I'll pay any price just to get you
I'd work all my life, and I will
To win you, I'd stand naked, stoned and stabbed

 

… I call that a bargain
The best I ever had
The best I ever had

 

@WhoTom RIP

[Bill from NYC]

Sometimes I go and walk the street
Behind the green sheet of glass
A million miles below their feet
A million miles, a million miles

 

I'll be with you, girl
Like being low
Hey-hey-hey, like being stoned

[muppy]

Well, here's a poke at you
You're gonna choke on it too
You're gonna lose that smile
Because all the while

I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
Oh yeah

[PastaJoe]

But I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

[muppy]

Eight miles high, and when you touch down
You'll find that it's stranger than known
Signs in the street, that say where you're going
Are somewhere just being their own

[Bill from NYC]

How many miles will it take to see the sun?
And how many years 'til it's done?
Kiss my confusion away in the night
Lay by my side when the mornin' comes

And the Baby looks around Him
Shares His bed of hay
With the burro in the palace of the King

He's a stranger in a strange land
A-tell me why – he's a stranger in a strange land (Hoo!)
Just a stranger in a strange land
Just a stranger in a strange land

[PastaJoe]

The king is gone but he's not forgotten
This is the story of Johnny Rotten
It's better to burn out than it is to rust
The king is gone but he's not forgotten

[DD4Bills]

A memo to a higher office
Open letter to the powers-that-be
To a God, a king, a head of state
A captain of industry
To the movers and the shakers —
Can’t everybody see?

[muppy]

I'm gonna find me a hole in the wall
I'm gonna crawl inside and die
'Cause my lady, now a mean ol' woman, Lord
Never told me goodbye

 

Can't you see, oh, can't you see
What that woman, Lord, she's been doin' to me?
Can't you see, can't you see
What that woman, Lord, she's been doin' to me?

[PastaJoe]

Down in Louisiana
Where the alligators grow so mean
Lived a girl that I swear to the world
Made the alligators look tame

Polk salad Annie
'Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
For the mama was working on the chain-gang
What a mean, vicious woman

[Bill from NYC]

It's a shame, the way you mess around with your man
It's a shame, the way you hurt me
It's a shame, the way you mess around with your man
I'm sitting all alone by the telephone
Waiting for your call when you don't call at all

[PastaJoe]

I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you
A love that will survive
I've been waiting for someone new
To make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life

[muppy]

Mm, making love and breaking hearts
It is a game for youth
But I'm not waiting on my lady
I'm just waiting on a friend

[Bill from NYC]

My friends are so distressed
They're standing on the brink of emptiness
No words I know of to express
This emptiness

I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you don't know yourself

[DD4Bills]

Well, someone told me yesterday
That when you show your love away
You act as if you just don't care
You look as if you're going somewhere
But I just can't convince myself
I couldn't live with no one else
And I can only play that part
And sit and nurse my broken heart

So lonely
So lonely, so lonely (I feel alone, I feel so lonely)
So lonely (I feel alone, I feel so lonely)
So lonely, so lonely (I feel alone, I feel so lonely)
So lonely (I feel alone, I feel so lonely)
So lonely, so lonely (I feel alone, I feel so lonely)
So lonely (I feel alone, I feel so lonely)
So lonely, so lonely (I feel alone, I feel so lonely)
(I feel lonely)

[muppy]

Everyone's watching, to see what you will do
Everyone's looking at you, oh
Everyone's wondering, will you come out tonight
Everyone's trying to get it right, get it right

Everybody's working for the weekend
Everybody wants a new romance
Everybody's goin' off the deep end
Everybody needs a second chance, oh

 

You want a piece of my heart
You better start from the start
You wanna be in the show
Come on baby let's go

[Tuco]

Jack the Rabbit and Weak Knees Willie, don't you know they're gonna be there
Ah, Sloppy Sue and Big Bones Billy, they'll be comin' up for air
We're gonna play some pool, skip some school, act real cool
Stay out all night, it's gonna feel all right

So Rosie, come out tonight, oh, baby, come out tonight
Windows are for cheaters, chimneys for the poor
Oh, closets are for hangers, winners use the door
So use it Rosie, that's what it's there for
