American Hi-Fi - Another Perfect Day

I'm holdin on
waitin for your call
it's simple but I can't explain this

I'm sinking down
I feel like I could die
I'm falling off
I don't know why

I still believe it when you say,
It's another perfect day
another perfect day.
I still believe it when you say,
It's another perfect day
another perfect day.

So I might try
to leave it all behind
I know tomorrow's not so bright now

I'll say goodbye
cause nothing good can last
you wear and fade,
you're no where fast
but today
I don't know how
to keep it all inside
but I guess I'll let it slide.

I still believe it when you say,
It's another perfect day
another perfect day.
I still believe it when you say,
It's another perfect day
another perfect day.

Today, I don't know why
I thought that it was real
but I guess it's no big deal

I still believe it when you say,
It's another perfect day
another perfect day.
I still believe it when you say,
It's another perfect day
another perfect day.

I don't know how
I don't know how
I don't know how
to let it slide...

KJ Five Two, KJ-52 (off the album It's Pronounced Five-Two)

My name is KJ AKA KJ five two
My name is KJ it is so nice to meet you
My name is KJ AKA KJ five two
My name is KJ it is so nice to meet you

My name is KJ five two brown hair eyes of blue
200 lbs. clocking in at six foot two
You can catch me watching Veggie Tales sipping Mountain Dew
Spending too much money at the mall and Gadzooks
Now i'm rolling throught McDonald's I'm getting a number two
But I know they gonna act rude and mess up my food
Here's your cheeseburger and plus your coke too
Ha, ha, thanks a lot but where's my fries at fool?
I tried to grow a mullet way back in high school
I was like "Now everybody gonna think that I'm cool
And the girls are gonna say I'm cuter than Tom Cruise"
But instead they laugh at me like the Spongebob dude
Looking back I don't know just how I made it through
but you live and you learn, that's just what you go through
Cause nowadays kids be like "KJ rocks dude"
My name is KJ...everybody stay tuned

My name is KJ AKA KJ five two
My name is KJ it is so nice to meet you
My name is KJ AKA KJ five two
My name is KJ it is so nice to meet you

My name is KJ five two now ya'll be messing up my name
It's not fifty two it don't stand for King James
I waited too long now so let me explain
John 6:9 let me break it down plain
Five loaves two fishes is what a boy gave
So I took what I had and I just did the same
Put all I had in His hands and I just walked away
I said Lord it's all Yours You can have the whole thing
I know what I bring it might sound a little strange
But I'm not in it just for this money or the fame
And I'm still just the same ain't nothing ever changed
I still driver a mini van and naw I ain't ashamed
Sipping Lipton Iced Tea dipping switching lanes
Like an insane soccer mom about to hit the game
Yelling at lame drivers saying "Get out of the way"
My name is KJ ya'll know the name

My name is KJ AKA KJ five two
My name is KJ it is so nice to meet you
My name is KJ AKA KJ five two
My name is KJ it is so nice to meet you

Jack Johnson- Taylor
They say Taylor was a good girl
never one to be late
complain express ideas in her brain
Workin on the night shift
passin out the tickets
you're gonna have to pay her
if you want to park here.
Well mommy's little dancer's
quite a little secret
workin on the streets now
never gonna keep it.
It's quite an imposition
And now she's only wishin'
That she would have listened
To the words they said.
Poor Taylor.

Well she just wanders around
uneffected by
the winter winds, yeah
and she'll pretend that
well she's somewhere else
so far and clear
about 2,000 miles from here.

Peter Patrick pitter patters on the window
And Sunny's silhouette won't let him in
and poor old Pete's got nothin 'cause he's been fallin'
but somehow Sunny knows just where he's been
He thinks that singin' on a Sunday's gunna save his soul
but now that Saturday's gone
Well sometimes he thinks that he's on his way
but I can see, that his break lights are on

And he just wanders around
uneffected by
the winter winds, yeah
and he'll pretend that
well he's somewhere else
so far and clear
about 2,000 miles from here.

She's such a tough enchilada
filled up with nada
givin' what she got to give to get dollar bills
she used to be a limber chick
time's a been tickin'
now she's finger lickin to the man
with the money in his pockets
flyin in his rocket
only stoppin by on his way to a better world
if Taylor finds a better world
Taylor's gunna run away

This is all fine and dandy, but let's set this place to swingin'!

Frank Sinatra - I'm Gonna Live Till I Die

I'm gonna live till I die! I'm gonna laugh 'stead of cry,
I'm gonna take the town and turn it upside down,
I'm gonna live, live, live until I die.
They're gonna say "What a guy!" I'm gonna play for the sky.
Ain't gonna miss a thing, I'm gonna have my fling,
I'm gonna live, live, live until I die.
The blues I lay low, I'll make them stay low,
They'll never trail over my head.
I'll be a devil, till I'm an angel, but until then.
Hallelujah, gonna dance, gonna fly, I'll take a chance riding high,
Before my number's up, I'm gonna fill my cup,
I'm gonna live, live, live, until I die!

Frank Sinatra - That's Life

That's life, that's what all the people say.
You're riding high in April,
Shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune,
When I'm back on top, back on top in June.

I said that's life, and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks,
Stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down,
'Cause this fine ol' world it keeps spinning around

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself, flat on my face,
I pick myself up and get back in the race.

That's life
I tell ya, I can't deny it,
I thought of quitting baby,
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it.
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try,
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself laying flat on my face,
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life
That's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothing shakin' come this here july
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
My, My

Favourite. Well I LIKE these, but I don't have any faves!

Shine, bright morning light
Now in the air the spring is coming
Sweet blowing wind
Singing down the hills and valleys
Keep your eyes on me (WARNING: This is just plain disturbing)
Now we're on the edge of hell
Dear my love, sweet morning light
Wait for me you've gone much farther, too far.

Fake Wings from .Hack//Sign. I actually mostly like the song, not the lyrics, but yeah. I like any good Japanese music, as well as the English .Hack music.[/i]

Grandmaster Flash and the Furious five- The Message

Quote:

Broken glass everywhere
People smurf on the stairs, you know they just
Don’t care
I can’t take the smell, I can’t take the noise
Got no money to move out, I guess I got no choice
Rats in the front room, roaches in the back
Junkie’s in the alley with a baseball bat
I tried to get away, but I couldn’t get far
Cause the man with the tow-truck repossessed my car
Chorus:
Don’t push me, cause I’m close to the edge
I’m trying not to loose my head
It’s like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder
How I keep from going under

Standing on the front stoop, hangin’ out the window
Watching all the cars go by, roaring as the breezes
Blow
Crazy lady, livin’ in a bag
Eating out of garbage piles, used to be a smurf
Search and test a tango, skips the life and then go
To search a prince to see the last of senses
Down at the peepshow, watching all the creeps
So she can tell the stories to the girls back home
She went to the city and got so so so ditty
She had to get a pimp, she couldn’t make it on her
Own

Chorus:
It’s like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder
How I keep from goin’ under

My brother’s doing fast on my mother’s t.v.
Says she watches to much, is just not healthy
All my children in the daytime, dallas at night
Can’t even see the game or the sugar ray fight
Bill collectors they ring my phone
And scare my wife when I’m not home
Got a bum education, double-digit inflation
Can’t take the train to the job, there’s a strike
At the station
Me on king kong standin’ on my back
Can’t stop to turn around, broke my sacroiliac
Midrange, migraine, cancered membrane
Sometimes I think I’m going insane, I swear I might
Hijack a plane!

Chorus:

My son said daddy I don’t wanna go to school
Cause the teacher’s a jerk, he must think I’m a
Fool
And all the kids smoke reefer, I think it’d be
Cheaper
If I just got a job, learned to be a street sweeper
I dance to the beat, shuffle my feet
Wear a shirt and tie and run with the creeps
Cause it’s all about money, ain’t a damn thing
Funny
You got to have a con in this land of milk and
Honey
They push that girl in front of a train
Took her to a doctor, sowed the arm on again
Stabbed that man, right in his heart
Gave him a transplant before a brand new start
I can’t walk through the park, cause it’s crazy
After the dark
Keep my hand on the gun, cause they got me on the
Run
I feel like an outlaw, broke my last fast jaw
Hear them say you want some more, livin’ on a
Seesaw

Chorus:

A child was born, with no state of mind
Blind to the ways of mankind
God is smiling on you but he’s frowning too
Cause only God knows what you go through
You grow in the ghetto, living second rate
And your eyes will sing a song of deep hate
The places you play and where you stay
Looks like one great big alley way
You’ll admire all the number book takers
Thugs, pimps, pushers and the big money makers
Driving big cars, spending twenties and tens
And you wanna grow up to be just like them
Smugglers, scrambles, burglars, gamblers
Pickpockets, peddlers and even pan-handlers
You say I’m cool, I’m no fool
But then you wind up dropping out of high school
Now you’re unemployed, all null ’n’ void
Walking around like you’re pretty boy floyd
Turned stickup kid, look what you done did
Got send up for a eight year bid
Now your man is took and you’re a may tag
Spend the next two years as an undercover smurf
Being used and abused, and served like hell
Till one day you was find hung dead in a cell
It was plain to see that your life was lost
You was cold and your body swung back and forth
But now your eyes sing the sad sad song
Of how you lived so fast and died so young

Chorus:

Steve Winwood- Higher Love

Think about it, there must be higher love
Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above
Without it, life is a wasted time
Look inside your heart, I'll look inside mine
Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world, what is fair?
We walk blind and we try to see
Falling behind in what could be

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of?

Worlds are turning and we're just hanging on
Facing our fear and standing out there alone
A yearning, and it's real to me
There must be someone who's feeling for me
Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world, what is fair?
We walk blind and we try to see
Falling behind in what could be

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of?

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring be a higher love
I could rise above on a higher love

I will wait for it
I'm not too late for it
Until then, I'll sing my song
To cheer the night along
Bring it...Oh bring it...

I could light the night up with my soul on fire
I could make the sun shine from pure desire
Let me feel that love come over me
Let me feel how strong it could be

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of?

What are you going to do when you turn the world white?
Is that part of your plan, is that part of your plan?
What are you going to do, when there's no one left to fight?
Is that part of your plan, is that part of your plan?
What are you going to do when everyone's dead?
Like the men, whose faces red
I'm smurf off, why shouldn't I be?
I'm living in an idiocracy

Just put me where the fire burns
(x4)

Legal contracts meant to bind
Let's rewind, this genocide
Life's oddity humankind, share a common pain
Share a common mind
One thing we share, one thing we do,
Fear of, GW, number two
It's three too many

Just put me where, the fire burns
(x4)

Hahah, I'll bet fifty million neopoints that no one knows who wrote that.

And buzzer, for however much I don't like you (:P) those are some of the greatest lyrics ever.

Maroon 5 - She Will Be Loved

Beauty queen of only eighteen,
Had some trouble with herself,
He was always there to help her,
She always belonged to someone else.

I drove for miles and miles,
And wound up at your door.
I've had you so many times but somehow,
I want more.

I don't mind spending everyday,
Out on your corner in the pouring rain,
Look for the girl with the broken smile,
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile.
And she will be loved,
She will be loved.

Tap on my window, knock on my door,
I want to make you feel beautiful.
I know I tend to get so insecure,
It doesn't matter anymore.

It's not always rainbows and butterflies,
It's compromise that moves us along,
My heart is full and my door's always open,
You can come anytime you want.

I don't mind spending everyday,
Out on your corner in the pouring rain,
Look for the girl with the broken smile,
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile.
And she will be loved,
She will be loved.

I know where you hide,
Alone in your car,
Know all of the things that make you who you are,
I know that goodbye, means nothing at all,
Comes back and begs me, to catch her every time she falls.

Tap on my window, knock on my door,
I want to make you feel beautiful.
I know I tend to get so insecure,
It doesn't matter anymore.

I don't mind spending everyday,
Out on your corner in the pouring rain,
Look for the girl with the broken smile,
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile.
And she will be loved,
She will be loved,
And she will be loved, (I tried to hard to say goodbye)
She will be loved.

I tried so hard to say goodbye,
I tried so hard to say goodbye,
I tried so hard to say goodbye.

I really like that song too, and in my family, I am the only one that can hit the high notes

Life in a tenement square from Flogging Molly (my favorite band!)

Well I kissed the day i was on my way
from those cold gray blocks of stone
for seventeen years of squalor filled tears
a time now with innocence lost
As the sun split the room
With it's rays filled with gloom
turnin' all hope to dispair
and the only thing life was to flee from the nest
that was Life In A Tenement Square...

I remember the song were the rats sang along
and danced for their daily bread
while the damp washed the walls
they were twenty feet tall
not a child in the house was fed
on the porter filled face
of the men left no trace
of the coin they had already spent
while our mothers asked God
what was hell ever for
when you lived in a Tenement Square

Grab what's left of the coal
from the ol' cubbyhole
these cinders need more to be a fire
while the ghosts of the soldier
that lived there before us
laugh with their guns by their sides
I hear them laugh, with their guns by their sides

Now politicans they dwell
in that forgotten hell
our misery's been turned into mews
where the fat of the land
now hog, hand-in-hand
a crime now of life was ever true
as the sun splits the room
with it's rays filled with gloom
turnin' all hope to dispair
ans the only thing left
was to flee from the nest
that was Life In A Tenement Square...

"She's A Rebel" By:Green Day!!!:)

She's a rebel
She's a saint
She's salt of the earth
And she's dangerous

She's a rebel
Vigilante
Missing link on the brink
Of destruction

From Chicago to Toronto
She's the one that they
Call old whatsername

She's the symbol
of resistance
and she's holding on my
heart like a hand grenade

Is she dreaming
what I'm thinking
Is she the mother of all bombs
gonna detonate

Is she trouble
like I'm trouble
make it a double
twist of fate
or a melody that

She sings the revolution
the dawning of our lives
she brings this liberation
that I just can't define
nothing comes to mind
[x2]

She's a rebel
She's a saint
She's salt of the earth
And she's dangerous

She's a rebel
Vigilante
Missing link on the brink
Of destruction

She's a rebel
She's a saint
She's salt of the earth
And she's dangerous

She's a rebel
Vigilante
Missing link on the brink
Of destruction

She's a rebel, She's a rebel, She's a rebel, And she's dangerous
[x2]

Numb by Linkin Park

Quote:

I’m tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don’t know what you’re expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)
Every step I take is another mistake to you
(caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)

I’ve become so numb I can’t feel you there
I’ve become so tired so much more aware
I’ve becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Can’t you see that you’re smothering me
Holding too tightly afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
(caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)
And every second I waste is more than I can take

I’ve become so numb I can’t feel you there
I’ve become so tired so much more aware
I’ve becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

I’ve become so numb I can’t feel you there
I’ve become so tired so much more aware
I’ve becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

I’ve become so numb I can’t feel you there
Is everything what you want me to be
I’ve become so numb I can’t feel you there
Is everything what you want me to be

The trick is to keep breathing by Garbage

Quote:

She’s not the kind of girl
Who likes to tell the world
About the way she feels about herself
She takes a little time
In making up her mind
She doesn’t want to fight against the tide

Lately
I’m not the only one
I say
Never trust anyone

Always the one who has to drag her down
Maybe you’ll get what you want this time around

Can’t bear to face the truth
So sick he cannot move
And when it hurts he takes it out on you

Lately
I’m not the only one
I say
Never trust anyone

Always the one who has to drag her down
Maybe you’ll get what you want this time around

The trick is to keep breathing
The trick is to keep breathing

She knows the human heart
And how to read the stars
Now everything’s about to fall apart

I won’t be the one who’s going to let you down
Maybe you’ll get what you want this time around ?

I won’t be the one who’s going to let you down
Maybe you’ll get what you want this time around ?

The trick is to keep breathing
