The Song Dedication Thread
 
Dedicate a song to a Mofo here. :)


Tacitus, here's a song that helps perk me up when I feel God is laughing at me:

Round and Round
music and lyrics by Bob Schneider

When your head falls off your neck
And hits the ground with a smack
And you're back on the wrong track
Where' your at when you lost you're head
Get out of bed that's what I said
And you're feeling like the dead seeing red*
Reborn where's my porn
My pants are torn up damnit where's the wine
Put my body in a pine box baby
Bustin' clocks changin' my locks
I know the time it's time to get up
And get out and get over this
But I don't know how and I don't know why

And the world goes round
And the world goes around
And the world goes round & round

When your bets been beat* and they turn up the heat
And you feel a little weak and you can hardly speak
And the coconuts come to your house with a bomb
And blow up the cake you got from your mom
And your diapers aren't dry and the neighbors all die
And you feel a little high a little higher than the big blue sky
And you wring your hands and the blood pours out
And the blood pours out

The world goes round
And the world goes around
And the world goes round & round

When your friends evaporate and you can't catch a break
And you're tied to the stake and everything you hate
Comes crashing down on your big round
Golen greazy crown and you can't make a sound
And you feel like your drowning and you stumble through the dark
And the dogs start to bark and you're fired on a lark
And your skin starts to spark and you're burning up inside
And your dentures start to slide

The world goes round
And the world goes around
And the world goes round & round

Okay, Miss C. I’ll dedicate one to my ex-wife…

Tourniquet – Marilyn Manson

She's made of hair and bone and little teeth
and things I cannot speak
She comes on like a crippled plaything
spine is just a string
I wrapped our love in all this foil
silver-tight like spider legs
I never wanted it to ever spoil
but flies will always lay their eggs
Take your hatred out on me
make your victim my head
you never ever believed in me
I am your tourniquet
Prosthetic synthesis with butterfly
sealed up with virgin stitch
If it hurts, just tell me
preserve the innocence
I never wanted it to end this way
but flies will lay their eggs

For Slay... from the one and only ELO.

Hush little baby, dont you cry
Oh-oh, dont you cry
Maybe tomorrows, a better life
Oh-oh, if you try

Rain is falling all around
Storm came, it brings you down
But if you lose your mind
Weatherman, in his overcoat

Look up in the sky now, the weatherman cry now
Oh-oh, the window pane
Damp in the valley, up in the alley
Oh-oh, its pouring rain

Rain is falling all around
Storm came, it brings you down
So let your mind roll on
Weatherman, drys the lonely tears

Early in the morning, while the suns still yawning
Oh-oh, smiles on you
Maybe today is, a better life
Oh-oh, if we try

Sun is shining all around
It warms your heart and melts the cloud
But if your mind can see
Weatherman, smiles a lonely smile

I dedicate this song to Eyes. :)

Can't Repeat-Offspring

I woke the other day
And saw my world has changed
The past is over but tomorrow‘s wishful thinking
I can‘t hold onto what‘s been done
I can‘t grab onto what‘s to come
And I‘m just wishing I could stop, but

Life goes on
Come of age
Can‘t hold on
Turn the page

Time rolls on
Wipe these eyes
Yesterday laughs
Tomorrow cries

Memories are bittersweet
The good times we can‘t repeat
Those days are gone and we can never get them back
Now we must move ahead
Despite our fear and dread
We‘re all just wishing we could stop, but

Life goes on
Come of age
Can‘t hold on
Turn the page

Time rolls on
Wipe your eyes
Yesterday laughs
Tomorrow cries

With all our joys and fears
Wrapped in forgotten years
The past is laughing as today just slips away
Time tears down what we‘ve made
And sets another stage
And I‘m just wishing we could stop

Life goes on
Come of age
Can‘t hold on
Turn the page

Time rolls on
Wipe these eyes
Yesterday laughs
Tomorrow cries

Time rolls on

Cool lyrics, Eq!

Here's one for Annie:
I'll Be There For You
by The Rembrandts

So no one told you life was gonna be this way. [four claps]
Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear,
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year,

I'll be there for you!
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you!
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you
('Cause you're there for me too)

You're still in bed at ten and work began at eight,
You've burned your breakfast so far, things are going great,
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these,
But she didn't tell when the world has brought you down to your knees.

"Don't Let it Bring You Down" - Neil Young

Old man lying by the side of the road
With the lorries rolling by,
Blue moon sinking from the weight of the load
And the building scrape the sky,
Cold wind ripping down the allay at dawn
And the morning paper flies,
Dead man lying by the side of the road
With the daylight in his eyes.

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning,
Find someone who's turning
And you will come around.

Blind man running through the light of the night
With an answer in his hand,
Come on down to the river of sight
And you can really understand,
Red lights flashing through the window in the rain,
Can you hear the sirens moan?
White cane lying in a gutter in the lane,
If you're walking home alone.

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning,
Just find someone who's turning
And you will come around.

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning,
Just find someone who's turning
And you will come around.

Awww thanks Cinders, I missed this thread. :kiss:

Here's one for you -

Johnny Mathis' Feet - American Music Club

I lay all my songs at johnny mathis’ feet
I said, johnny tell me
Can you tell me how to live?
All my hopes are unraveling and I just lost my lease
On my house without love, doors, or windows
Without peace.

And with a wave of his jewel-encrusted hand
Across the glittering las vegas scene he said,
You gotta learn how to disappear in the silk and amphetamine.

Johnny looked at my songs and he said,
Well at first guess, never in my life
Have I ever seen such a mess.
Why do you say everything as if you were a thief?
Like what you’ve stolen has no value
Like what you preach is far from belief?

And with a wave of his red white and blue hand
Across the glittering hollywood scene he said,
You gotta learn how to disappear in the silk and amphetamine.

Johnny looked at my old collection of punk rock posters
Anonymous scenes of disaffection choas and torture
And he said, you were on the right track
But you’re a lamb jumping for the knife.
He said, a real showman knows how
To disappear in the spotlight.


And one for the people of London -

Lullaby Of London - The Pogues

As I walked down by the riverside
One evening in the spring
Heard a long gone song
From days gone by
Blown in on the great North wind
Though there is no lonesome corncrake's cry
Or sorrow and delight
You can hear the cars
And the shouts from bars
And the laughter and the fights

May the ghosts that howled
Round the house at night
Never keep you from your sleep
May they all sleep tight
Down in hell tonight
Or where ever they may be

As I walked on with a heavy heart
Then a stone danced on the tide
And the song went on
Though the lights were gone
And the North wind gently sighed
And an evening breeze coming from the East
That kissed the riverside
So I pray now child that you sleep tonight
When you hear this lullaby

May the wind that blows from haunted graves
Never bring you misery
May the angels bright
Watch you tonight
And keep you while you sleep

SamsoniteDelilah 07-09-05 08:59 PM

d~ thanks :D as i walk around the vegas strip tonite, i'll see if i can disappear ;)

Gracie 07-11-05 11:07 PM

Oh, the temptation to dedicate 'It's Raining Men' to you, Jason...so predictable, but I know I'd end up laughing for 5 minutes straight afterwards.

for Sexy~
Celebrity
'N SYNC

If I wasn't a celebrity
Would you be so nice to me?
If I didn't have G's like everyday
Would you still wanna be with me?
If I couldn't buy you diamond rings
And all those other expensive things
Would you be so into me?
If I wasn't a celebrity

(Lately)
Ive been doing a little thinking
'Bout the things
That satisfy you
It's making me wonder
'Bout the things that
You see in me
I hate the way
You like to say your
Man's a celebrity
Baby what's the deal?
I thought you wanted me for me

You gotta say what you mean
You gotta mean what you say
Cause you keep pushing me away
'Cause I ain't got
No time to play
So I say

If I wasn't a celebrity
Would you be so nice to me?
If I didn't have G's like everyday
Would you still wanna be with me?
Baby, if I couldn't buy you diamond rings
And all those other expensive things
Would you be so into me?
If I wasn't a celebrity

Celebrity, celebrity
Celebrity, celebrity
Celebrity, celebrity
Celebrity, celebrity

I'm glad you're having a good time
Living the life that
I laid out for me
Constantly splurging
Spending my money
On everything you see
It would be different
If you had something,
Maybe like a
J-O-B
You need to
Get your thing together, yeah

You gotta stop running games
It ain't about my fame
Cause you know if things weren't this way
You'd be gone a long time ago, so I say

If I wasn't a celebrity
Would you be so nice to me?
If I didn't have G's like everyday
Would you still wanna be with me?
If I couldn't buy you diamond rings
And all those other expensive things
Would you be so into me?
If I wasn't a celebrity

If you really loved me
You'd try and show me
That it ain't even about my name
But you tried to use me
And lied to fool me
So it can never be the same
So now, I'm, leaving you behind
I've found somebody
Who can love me for me
And that's all I need, yeah, oh

Celebrity, celebrity
Celebrity, celebrity
Celebrity, celebrity
Celebrity, celebrity

If I wasn't a celebrity
Would you be so nice to me?
If I didn't have G's like everyday
Would you still wanna be with me?
If I couldn't buy you diamond rings
And all those other expensive things
Would you be so into me?
If I wasn't a celebrity

If I wasn't a celebrity
Would you be so nice to me?
If I didn't have G's like everyday
Would you still wanna be with me?
If I couldn't buy you diamond rings
And all those other expensive things
Would you be so into me?
If I wasn't a celebrity

Lean On Me
by: Bill Withers

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you WON’T let show

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

you just call on me sister, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that YOU’LL understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For ,it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

YA just call on me sister, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that YOU’LL understand
We all need somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me
call me (if you need a friend)
call me (call me)
call me (if you need a friend)
call me (if you ever need a friend)
call me (call me)
call me (call me)
call me (call me)
call me (call me)
call me (if you need A friend)
call me (call me)
call me (call me)
call me (call me)
call me (call me)
call me (call me)

(of course I had to replace brother with sister...only fitting. :))

Combat Baby - Metric

To someone, if you ever read this


we used to leave the blue lights on
and there was a beat
ever since you have been gone it’s all caffeine-free
faux punk fatigues
said it all before
they try to kick it, their feet fall asleep
get no harm done no
none of them want to fight me

combat baby come back baby
fight off the lethargy
don’t go quietly
combat baby
said you would never give up easy
combat baby come back

get back in town I wanna paint it black
wanna get around
easy living crowd so flat
said it all before
they try to kick it, their feet fall asleep
I want to be wrong but
No one here wants to fight me like you do


combat baby come back baby
fight off the lethargy
don’t go quietly
combat baby
said you would never give up easy
combat baby come back

I try to be so nice
Compromise
Who gets it good?
Every mighty mild seventies child
Every mighty mild seventies child
Beats me

Do doo doo doo

combat baby come back baby
combat baby come back
bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye baby
combat baby come back

how I miss your ranting
do you miss my all time lows

Sedai 07-20-05 01:00 PM

For Chris:


Yoda
(sung to Lola:The Kinks)
Weird Al Yankovic


I met him in a swamp down in Dagobah
Where it bubbles all the time like a giant carbonated soda
S O D A, soda

I saw the little runt sitting there on a log
I asked him his name and in a raspy voice he said "Yoda"
Y O D A, Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I've been around, but I ain't never seen
A guy who looks like a muppet, but he's wrinkled and green
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I'm not dumb, but I can't understand
How he can lift me in the air just by raising his hand
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I left home just a week before
And I've never ever been a Jedi before
But Obi Wan, he set me straight, of course
He said, "Go to Yoda and he'll show you the Force"

Well I'm not the kind that would argue with Ben
So it looks like I'm gonna start all over again
Though with my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

So I used the Force
I picked up a box
I lifted some rocks
While I stood on my head
Well, I won't forget what Yoda said

He said, "Luke, stay away from the darker side
And if you start to go astray, let the Force be your guide"
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

"I know Darth Vader's really got you annoyed
But remember, if you kill him, then you'll be unemployed"
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I heard my friends really got in a mess
So I'm gonna have to leave Yoda I guess
But I know that I'll be coming back some day
I'll be playing this part 'till I'm old and gray

The long-term contract I had to sign
Says I'll be making these movies till the end of time
With my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

For Darth Stujitzu, in honor of his love for amazon:

(Stop)
Oh yes, wait a minute Mister Postman
(Wait)

Why's it takin' such a long time
(Oh yeah)
For me to hear from that seller of mine

There must be some word today
From my seller so far away
Please Mister Postman, look and see
If there's a package, a package for me

I've been standin' here waitin' Mister Postman
So patiently
For just a cd, or just a letter
Sayin' they're sendin' it to me

(Mister Postman)
Mister Postman, look and see
(Oh yeah)
If there's a package in your bag for me
(Please, Please Mister Postman)
Why's it takin' such a long time
(Oh yeah)
For me to hear from that seller of mine

So many days you passed me by
See the tears standin' in my eyes
You didn't stop to make me feel groovy
By leavin' me a book or a movie

(Mister Postman)
Mister Postman, look and see
(Oh yeah)
If there's a movie in your bag for me
(Please, Please Mister Postman)
Why's it takin' such a long time

(Why don't you check it and see one more time for me, you gotta)
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
(Mister Postman)
Mister Postman, look and see

(C'mon deliver the movie, and soon would be groovy!)

Babushka
by Kate Bush

She wanted to test her husband.
She knew exactly what to do:
A pseudonym to fool him.
She couldn't have made a worse move.

She sent him scented letters,
And he received them with a strange delight.
Just like his wife
But how she was before the tears,
And how she was before the years flew by,
And how she was when she was beautiful.
She signed the letter

"All yours,
Babushka, Babushka, Babushka-ya-ya!
All yours,
Babushka, Babushka, Babushka-ya-ya!"

She wanted to take it further,
So she arranged a place to go,
To see if he
Would fall for her incognito.
And when he laid eyes on her,
He got the feeling they had met before.
Uncanny how she
Reminds him of his little lady,
Capacity to give him all he needs,
Just like his wife before she freezed on him,
Just like his wife when she was beautiful.
He shouted out, "I'm

All yours,
Babushka, Babushka, Babushka-ya-ya!
All yours,
Babushka, Babushka, Babushka-ya-ya!
All yours,
Babouhka, Babushka, Babushka-ya-ya!"

Van Morrison - A Town Called Paradise

Copycats ripped off my words
Copycats ripped off my songs
Copycats ripped off my melody
It doesn't matter what they say
It doesn't matter what they do
All that matters is my relationship to you

Gonna take you out
Get you in my car
We're going for a long long drive
We're going down to A Town Called Paradise
Down where we can be free
We're gonna drink that wine
We're gonna jump for joy
In a town called Paradise

We're going up the mountainside
Child you can look for miles
And see the vision on the west
We're gonna swing round
And look from north to south
Swing round from east to west
And go round in a circle too
And we're gonna start dancing
Like we've never done before
I'm gonna take you in my arms
I'm gonna squeeze you tight
Everything will be alright
We're gonna get that squealin' feelin'
Gonna take you down to a town called Paradise,
Down where we can be free
It doesn't matter what they say
It doesn't matter what they do
All that matters is my relationship to you
By the river we will linger
As we drive down to be free
We're gonna ride all night long
All along the ancient highway
Gonna be there for the mornin' comes

Van Morrison - Cleaning Windows

Oh, the smell of the bakery from across the street
Got in my nose
As we carried our ladders down the street
With the wrought-iron gate rows
I went home and listened to Jimmie Rodgers in my lunch-break
Bought five Woodbines at the shop on the corner
And went straight back to work.

Oh, Sam was up on top
And I was on the bottom with the v
We went for lemonade and Paris buns
At the shop and broke for tea
I collected from the lady
And I cleaned the fanlight inside-out
I was blowing saxophone on the weekend
In that down joint.

What's my line?
I'm happy cleaning windows
Take my time
I'll see you when my love grows
Baby don't let it slide
I'm a working man in my prime
Cleaning windows (number a hundred and thirty-six)

I heard Leadbelly and Blind Lemon
On the street where I was born
Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee,
Muddy Waters singin' "I'm A Rolling Stone"
I went home and read my Christmas Humphreys' book on Zen
Curiosity killed the cat
Kerouac's "Dharma Bums" and "On The Road"

What's my line?
I'm happy cleaning windows
Take my time
I'll see you when my love grows
Baby don't let it slide
I'm a working man in my prime
Cleaning windows...

I Will Survive
by Gloria Gaynor

First I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
without you by my side
But I spent so many nights
thinking how you did me wrong
I grew strong
I learned how to carry on
and so you're back
from outer space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed my stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second
you'd be back to bother me

Go on now go walk out the door
just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
you think I'd crumble
you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
as long as i know how to love
I know I will stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive
I will survive

It took all the strength I had
not to fall apart
kept trying hard to mend
the pieces of my broken heart
and I spent oh so many nights
just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
Now I hold my head up high
and you see me
somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
still in love with you
and so you felt like dropping in
and just expect me to be free
now I'm saving all my loving
for someone who's loving me

Tacitus 09-16-05 08:42 PM

It's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all though... :)

Ah-well I'm walking down the street,
It's always students that I meet,
Long hair down and sneakers on your feet.
Write your letters to the Evening News
I clench my fist and sing this tune:
I said Hey student, hey student, hey student,
You're gonna get it through the head,
I said Hey student, hey student, hey student,
You're gonna get it through the head, I said...
Well, walking to work,
It's always students that I meet
Henna in your hair, [...]
As you [...]
I clench my hand before I flip my lid.
CHORUS.
I'm walking down the street,
It's always students that I meet,
Long hair down and sneakers on your feet.
As you listen to Pearl Jam in your room.
I'm thinking like that when I sing this song:
CHORUS.
I said I walk some more, walk some more,
Walk some more, wah wah wah x2
I'm walking down the street,
It's always students that I meet,
Long hair down and sneakers on your feet.
As you stare in your room at Shaun Ryder's face
Down long long long long days
CHORUS.
I said I walk some more, walk some more, walk some more, wah wah
wah x2
The dead brains of class A-B
[...]
Twin swastikas
I'm thinking like this when I sing this tune:
CHORUS.
I said I walk some more, walk some more,
Walk some more, wah wah wah x2

Good Charlotte- Movin' On

When I think about my life
I wonder if I will survive to live to see in 25
Or will I just fall?
Like all my friends, they just keep dying
People ’round me always crying
In this place that I like to call my home

Not everybody knows that everybody goes to a better place
Not everybody knows that everyone could be living their last days
But the hard times will come, and we’ll keep movin’ on, we’re movin’ up
Keep movin’ on

Life,
Hope,
Truth,
Trust,
Faith,
Pride,
Love,
Lust

On without the things we’ve lost
The things we’ve gained we’ll take with us

And all I’ve got are these two hands to make myself a better man
I wonder if I’ll ever see the end of this
With all this rain it just keeps falling
On my head and now I’m calling
Out to someone else to help me make it through

Not everybody knows that everybody goes to a better place
Not everybody knows that everyone could be living their last days
But the hard times will come, and we’ll keep movin’ on, we’re movin’ up
Keep movin’ on

Life,
Hope,
Truth,
Trust,
Faith,
Pride,
Love,
Lust,
Pain,
Hate,
Lies,
Kill,
Laugh,
Cry,
Live,
Die

Some friends become enemies
Some friends become your family
Make the best with what you’re given
This ain’t dying
This is living!

Said we’re movin’ on, and we got nothing to prove
To anyone ’cause we’ll get through
We’re movin’ on and on and on and on...
Keep movin’ on

Life,
Hope,
Truth,
Trust,
Faith,
Pride,
Love,
Lust,
Pain,
Hate,
Lies,
Kill,
Laugh,
Cry,
Live,
Die

Some friends become enemies
Some friends become your family
Make the best with what you’re given
This ain’t dying
This is living!

A Long December
by Counting Crows



A long December and there’s reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last

I can’t remember the last thing you said as you were leavin’
Now the days go by so fast


And it’s one more day up in the canyons
And it’s one more night in Hollywood
If you think that I could be forgiven... I wish you would


The smell of hospitals in winter
And the feeling that it’s all a lot of oysters, but no pearls

All at once you look across a crowded room
To see the way that light attaches to a girl


And it’s one more day up in the canyons
And it’s one more night in Hollywood
If you think you might come to California... I think you should
:D


Drove up to the Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m.
And talked a little while about the year
I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower,
Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her


And it’s been a long December and there’s no reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better that the last
I can’t remember all the times I tried to tell myself
To hold on to these moments as they pass


And it’s one more day up in the canyon
And it’s one more night in Hollywood
It’s been so long since I’ve seen the ocean... I guess I should

Nothing wrong with consistency! Unless it’s too thick, or sorta soupy.

i dedicate this song to someone...

Goodbye Earl
by the dixie chicks

Mary-Anne and Wanda were the best of friends
All through their high school days
Both members of the 4h club
Both active in the FFA
After graduation Mary-Anne went out lookin’
For a bright new world
Wanda looked all around this town
And all she found was Earl

Well it wasn’t two weeks
After she got married that
Wanda started gettin’ abused
She put on dark glasses and long sleeved blouses
And make-up to cover a bruise
Well she finally got the nerve to file for divorce
She let the law take it from there
But Earl walked right through that restraining order
And put her in intensive care

Right away Mary-Anne flew in from Atlanta
On a red eye midnight flight
She held Wanda’s hand as they
Worked out a plan
And it didn’t take them long to decided

That Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl
Those black-eyed peas!
They tasted all right to me Earl
You feeling weak?
Why don’t you lay down
And sleep Earl
Ain’t it dark
Wrapped up in that tarp Earl

The cops came by to bring Earl in
They searched the house
High and low
Then they tipped their hats
And said ’thank you ladies
If you hear from him let us know’

Well the weeks went by and
Spring turned to summer
And summer faded into fall
And it turns out he was a missing person
Who nobody missed al all

So the girls bought some land
At a roadside stand
Out on highway 109
They sell tennessee ham
And strawberry jam
And they don’t
Lose any sleep at night ’cause

Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl
We need a break
Let’s go out to the lake Earl
We’ll pack a lunch!
And stuff you in the trunk Earl
Well is that all right?
Good let’s go for a ride
Earl hey

You give love a bad name
by Bon Jovi

Shot through the heart, and you're to blame,
darling you give love a bad name

An angel's smile is what you sell
You promise me heaven then put me through hell
Chains of love, got a hold on me
When passion's a prison you can't break free

You're a loaded gun ... yeah
There's nowhere to run
No-one can save me, the damage is done

Shot through the heart, and your to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name
You give love a bad name

You paint your smile on your lips
Blood red nails on your fingertips
A school boys dream, you act so shy
Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye

You're a loaded gun
There's nowhere to run
No-one can save me, the damage is done

Shot through the heart, and your to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name
You give love.....

Shot through the heart and your to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name

Shot through the heart and your to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name

You give love....
You give love a bad name
You give love....
You give love a bad name
You give love....
You give love a bad name

Lullaby Of London - The Pogues

As I walked down by the riverside
One evening in the spring
Heard a long gone song
From days gone by
Blown in on the great north wind
Though there is no lonesome corncrake’s cry
Of sorrow and delight
You can hear the cars
And the shouts from bars
And the laughter and the fights

May the ghosts that howled
Round the house at night
Never keep you from your sleep
May they all sleep tight
Down in hell tonight
Or wherever they may be

As I walked on with a heavy heart
Then a stone danced on the tide
And the song went on
Though the lights were gone
And the north wind gently sighed
And an evening breeze coming from the east
That kissed the riverside
So I pray now child that you sleep tonight
When you hear this lullaby
May the wind that blows from haunted graves
Never bring you misery
May the angels bright
Watch you tonight
And keep you while you sleep

On the Road to Find Out
by Cat Stevens

Well I left my happy home to see what I could find out
I left my folk and friends with the aim to clear my mind out
Well I hit the rowdy road and many kinds I met there
Many stories told me of the way to get there

So on and on I go, the seconds tick the time out
There’s so much left to know, and I’m on the road to find out

Well in the end I’ll know, but on the way I wonder
Through descending snow, and through the frost and thunder

Well, I listen to the wind come howl, telling me I have to hurry
I listen to the robin’s song saying not to worry

So on and on I go, the seconds tick the time out
There’s so much left to know, and I’m on the road to findout

Then I found myself alone, hopin’ someone would miss me
Thinking about my home, and the last man to kiss me, kiss me

But sometimes you have to moan when nothing seems to suit yer
But nevertheless you know you’re locked towards the future

So on and on you go, the seconds tick the time out
There’s so much left to know, and I’m on the road to findout

Then I found my head one day when I wasn’t even trying
And here I have to say, ’cause there is no use in lying, lying

Yes the answer lies within, so why not take a look now?
Kick out the devil’s sin, pick up, pick up a good book now

To my valentine love:

Missing you by Michelle Tumes

All the while, you wandering all around the world,
There was I, it was a pleasure to see your peaceful smile
The beginning of a tender dream
Some things really are what they seem

I am missing, you I have to say
That these tears inside won't go away
I love you now
I am not afraid to reveal those things I long to say
I am missing you

There were times I would sit all alone with the rain outside
Many times I would pray that my letters would reach your heart
With words that travel over the seas
Thoughts that bring you nearer to me

I am missing you
I have to say that these tears inside won't go away
I love you now
I am not afraid to reveal those things I long to say
I am missing you

Hope lives on like a summer song
When I feel in my heart that I can't go on
You melt my soul like the winter sun till all of these days and my years are gone

I am missing you

Dreamed I was an eskimo
Frozen wind began to blow
Under my boots and around my toes
The frost that bit the ground below
It was a hundred degrees below zero...

And my mama cried
And my mama cried
Nanook, a-no-no
Nanook, a-no-no
Don’t be a naughty eskimo
Save your money, don’t go to the show

Well I turned around and I said oh, oh oh
Well I turned around and I said oh, oh oh
Well I turned around and I said ho, ho
And the northern lights commenced to glow
And she said, with a tear in her eye
Watch out where the huskies go, and don’t you eat that yellow snow
Watch out where the huskies go, and don’t you eat that yellow snow http://bestsmileys.com/nono/6.gif

True Colors
by Cyndi Lauper

You with the sad eyes
don't be discouraged
oh I realize
it's hard to take courage
in a world full of people
you can lose sight of it all
and the darkness inside you
can make you feel so small

But I see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that's why I love you
so don't be afraid to let them show
your true colors
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow

Show me a smile then
don't be unhappy, can't remember
when I last saw you laughing
if this world makes you crazy
and you've taken all you can bear
you call me up
because you know I'll be there

And I'll see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that's why I love you
so don't be afraid to let them show
your true colors
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow

Don't Stop
by Fleetwood Mac

If you wake up and don’t want to smile,
If it takes just a little while,
Open your eyes and look at the day,
You’ll see things in a different way.

Don’t stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Don’t stop, it’ll soon be here,
It’ll be, better than before,
Yesterday’s gone, yesterday’s gone.

Why not think about times to come,
And not about the things that you’ve done,
If your life was bad to you,
Just think what tomorrow will do.

Don’t stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Don’t stop, it’ll soon be here,
It’ll be, better than before,
Yesterday’s gone, yesterday’s gone.

All I want is to see you smile,
If it takes just a little while,
I know you don’t believe that it’s true,
I never meant any harm to you.

Don’t stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Don’t stop, it’ll soon be here,
It’ll be, better than before,
Yesterday’s gone, yesterday’s gone.

Don’t you look back,
Don’t you look back.

Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off
~Joe Nichols

She said I'm going out with my girlfriends
Marguerita's at the holiday inn
Oh have mercy my only thought
Was tequila makes her clothes fall off
I told her put an extra layer on
I know what happens when she drinks patron?
Her closets missing half the things she bought
Yea tequila makes her clothes fall off

She'll start by kicking out of her shoes
Lose an earring in her drink
Leave her jacket in the bathroom stall
Drop a contact down the sink

Them panty hose aint gonna last too long
If the DJ puts Bon Jovi on
She might come home in a table cloth
Yea tequila makes her clothes fall off

She can handle any champagne brunch
A bridal shower with Bacardi punch
Jello shooters full of Smirnoff
But tequila makes her clothes fall off

She'll start by kicking out of her shoes
Lose an earring in her drink
Leave her jacket in the bathroom stall
Drop a contact down the sink

She don't mean nothing
She just havin fun
Tomorrow she say oh what have I done
Her friends will joke about the stuff she lost
Yea tequila makes her clothes fall off
Oh tequila makes her clothes fall off
Oh tequila makes her clothes fall off




I want a girls night out with you gals. :D

Nature Boy
Words and Music by Eden Ahbez

There was a boy...
A very strange enchanted boy.
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea,
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he.

And then one day,
One magic day, he passed my way.
And while we spoke of many things,
Fools and kings,
This he said to me,
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return."

~interlude~

"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return."

Ophelia 05-28-06 10:02 PM

Such great heights

I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles
in our eyes are mirror images and when
we kiss they're perfectly aligned
and I have to speculate that God himself
did make us into corresponding shapes like
puzzle pieces from the clay
and true, it may seem like a stretch, but
its thoughts like this that catch my troubled
head when you're away when I am missing you to death
when you are out there on the road for
several weeks of shows and when you scan
the radio, I hope this song will guide you home

they will see us waving from such great
heights, "come down now," they'll say
but everything looks perfect from far away,
"come down now," but we'll stay...

I tried my best to leave this all on your
machine but the persistent beat it sounded
thin upon listening and
that frankly will not fly. you will hear
the shrillest highs and lowest lows with

they will see us waving from such great
heights, "come down now," they'll say
but everything looks perfect from far away,
"come down now," but we'll stay...

Im gunna dedicate a song to all aussies.
i LOVE this song. Its funny and so true and so many ways.

Chris Franklin - Bloke
I hate the new age guys, I'm a chauvinist,
I live on beer and pies.
Tried to tell you, but you look at me like maybe I'm an angel underneath,
I haven't brushed me teeth.
Yesterday I lied, but all my mates gave me a real good alibi.
I really went out drinking, I told you I was at work,
Don't ask me for commitment, cause it's something I will shirk.

I'm a bloke, I'm an ocker, and I really lover your knockers.
I'm a labourer by day, I piss up all me pay.
Watching footy on TV, just feed me more VB,
Pour my beer and get my smokes, and go away.

Or take me as I am, this may mean you'll have to fetch another can,
Rest assured that if I start to make you breakfast, I'm going to extremes.
But tomorrow, I'll get sh*t-faced, and today won't mean a thing.

I'm a bloke, I'm a yobbo, and my best mate's name is Robbo,
Winfield is my cigarette, I dress in flannelette.
Shearers singlet that is blue, throw in a few tattoos,
You know you wouldn't want me any other way.

When you think, you've got me figured out, the season's already changing,
(From footy to cricket).
I think it's cool when I act like a tool, then my mates try to shave me.

How have I missed this thread. I gotta get out more often.

its thoughts like this that catch my troubled

several weeks of shows and when you scan
the radio, I hope this song will guide you home

Thank you,
I like counting the freckles in the mirror on the image of someone else laying drunk on the driveway pavement that is not mine, looking up and connecting them all.

(I think you'll feel me and understand me here.)

I also like the Iron & Wine version a tad better.

For Johnny O McClane.........sung by Johnny O

American Boy by Chris Isaak


I'm the original American boy
Love you baby, with all my heart
Ten times better than those movie stars
What you see, is what you are
I'm no James Dean baby,
But you know I care
If you ever need me, I'll be there, always there

Don't you know I love you more each day
Don't you know I will always feel this way
You can count on me I'm here to stay

I'll go crazy if I stay inside
Come on baby, take a ride
Take you places that we've never been
Don't be shy, hop on in
I ain't no Hollywood baby
You can't find a friend, they all say they love you
But just pretend, mine never ends

I'm the original American boy
Can't you see, you're made for me
Tell me baby that you want me too, I'd do anything for you
I get a crazy feeling, when I look at you
Don't ask me if I want you, you know I do
Only you
I'm the original American boy, yeah I'm the original American boy

I'm still in this weirdly mellow mood, sipping a glass of red wine tonight and thinking of my daughter and Sammy and Caity and Nebs and Susan and Birdy and Lindarelly and Rev...and all the Mofoettes...and all the girls in my life...

...So this ones dedicated to all the girls. :kiss:


This Ones For The Girls
~Martina McBride

This one's for all you girls about thirteen
High school can be so rough, can be so mean
Hold onto, on to your innocence
Stand your ground when everyone's giving in

This one's for the girls

This is for all you girls about twenty-five
In a little apartment, just trying to get by
Living on, on dreams and spaghetti-o's
Wondering where your life is gonna go

This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are
This one's for the girls
Who love without holding back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world
This one's for the girls

This is for all you girls about forty-two
Tossing pennies into the Fountain of Youth
Every laugh, laugh line on your face
Made you who you are today

This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are
This one's for the girls
Who love without holding back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world
This one's for the girls

Yeah, we're all the same inside (same inside)
From 1 to 99

This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are
This one's for the girls
Who love without holding back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world
This one's for the girls
Yeah, this one's for the girls

I just heard this song recently and I'd have sworn she said
Tossing your panties into the Fountain of Youth

Don't know HOW I came up with that.

OK, I plan on dedicating some songs to MoFos here in the very near future, but since my 23rd wedding anniversary is coming up on Monday, I'm going to dedicate "our song" to Brenda here. She can easily see it here and I'm trying to get her to join. Of course, our daughter sarah f is already a major member. :cool:

hey! i was just looking at this thread and you posted in it, mark. stalker.

mark f 10-06-10 10:28 PM

Re: The Song Dedication Thread
 
I do that all the time. See, ash is telling the truth! Except for the stalker part. If you don't want someone to see what you're "seeing", go rogue, like Holds, Dest, Harry Lime and all those other coolios.

You didn't think of the Smiths when you "pre-stalked" me, did you?

Here Comes a Special Boy - Freezepop

Have you heard who's on his way?
I've been counting down the days
Finally we'll have some fun
He's got hugs for everyone.

Word is out and we can't wait
Things are gonna be so great
Once philippe is on the scene
Everything is peachy keen.

Oh philippe oh philippe
You bring us very special joy
Dressed like a bumblebee
With your special kind of glee.

Oh philippe oh philippe
You're a very special boy
Cause you're squeaky clean
Standing on the drum machine.

When i'm sad, feeling blue
You're so rad, meeting you
When i'm down, you come through
Don't you frown, i've got you!

When i'm sad (hugs!)
Feeling blue (hugs!)
You're so rad (hugs!)
Meeting you (hugs!)
When i'm down (hugs!)
You come through (hugs!)
Don't you frown (hugs!)
I've got you! (huuugs!)

Here comes a special
Here comes a very special
Here comes a special
Here come a very special boy!

There are lots of boys around
The special ones are very rare
There aren't many to be found
We've been looking everywhere.

Things were starting to look bleak
Until we heard about philippe.
We're in desparate need of cheer
Don't give up hope he's almost here!

Oh philippe oh philippe
You bring us very special joy
Dressed like a bumblebee
With your special kind of glee.

Oh philippe oh philippe
You're a very special boy
Cause you're squeaky clean
Standing on the drum machine.

When i'm sad, feeling blue
You're so rad, meeting you
When i'm down, you come through
Don't you frown, i've got you!

When i'm sad (hugs!)
Feeling blue (hugs!)
You're so rad (hugs!)
Meeting you (hugs!)
When i'm down (hugs!)
You come through (hugs!)
Don't you frown (hugs!)
I've got you! (huuugs!)

Here comes a special
Here comes a very special
Here comes a special
Here comes a very special
Here comes a special
Here comes a very special boy!

Have you heard who's on his way?
I've been counting down the days
Finally we'll have some fun
He's got lots of hugs for everyone.

Oh philippe oh philippe
You bring us very special joy
Dressed like a bumblebee
With your special kind of glee.

He's got lots of hugs for everyone.

Oh philippe oh philippe
You're a very special boy

Standing on the drum machine.

He's got lots of hugs for everyone.
