John and Joel
Friday night, I crashed your party
Saturday, I said I'm sorry
Sunday came and trashed me out again
I was only having fun
Wasn't hurting anyone
And we all enjoyed the weekend for a change
“You May Be Right”
Billy Joel
Glass Houses album
Breathe out
So I can breathe you in
Hold you in
And now
I know you've always been
Out of your head
Out of my head, I sang
Everlong
Song by Foo Fighters ‧ 1997
Early in the morning, risin' to the street
Light me up that cigarette, and I'll strap shoes on my feet
Got to find the reason, reason things went wrong
Got to find a reason why my money's all gone
I got a Dalmatian and I can still get by....
3:30 in the mornin', not a soul in sight
The city's lookin' like a ghost town on a moonless summer night
Raindrops on the windshield, there's a storm movin' in
He's headin' back from somewhere that he never should have been
The Thunder Rolls
Song by Garth Brooks
Little darlin'
It's been a long, cold, lonely winter
Little darlin'
It feels like years since it's been here
She packed my bags last night, pre-flight
Zero hour, 9 a.m.
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
I miss the Earth so much, I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
Rocket Man
Elton John
Run and tell all of the angels
This could take all night
Think I need a devil to help me get things right
Hook me up a new revolution
'Cause this one is a lie
We sat around laughin' and watched the last one die
What I really wanna know
Ah, baby, mhmm
What I really wanna say
I can't define
Well, it's love
That I need, oh
My soul will have to
Wait till I get back
To find a Heina of my own
I spent last night in the arms of a girl in Louisiana
And though I'm out on the highway my thoughts are still with her
Such a strange combination of a woman and a child
Strange situation stoppin' every hundred miles, callin' Baton Rouge
Callin' Baton Rouge
Song by Garth Brooks ‧ 1993
On the corner is a banker with a motorcar
And little children laugh at him behind his back
And the banker never wears a mac in the pouring rain
Very strange
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life, to wander free
But losing everything, is like the .........
Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me
I, I'm a one-way motorway
I'm a road that drives away, then follows you back home
I, I'm a streetlight shining
I'm a wild light, blinding bright, burnin' off and on
Ah-ah-ah
When you grab a hold of me
You tell me that I'll never be set free
But I'm a parasite
Creep and crawl, I step into the night
Badfish
Sublime
We call them cool
Those hearts that have no scars to show
The ones that never do let go
And risk it the tables being turned
It's a thousand pages, give or take a few
I'll be writing more in a week or two
I could make it longer if you like the style
I can change it 'round and I want to be a....
Paperback Writer
Well, they showed you a statue, told you to pray
They built you a temple and locked you away
Aw, but they never told you the price that you pay
For things that you might have done
Only the Good Die Young
Song by Billy Joel ‧ 1977
You make me dizzy, running circles in my head
One of these days I'll chase you down
Well, look who's going crazy now
We're face to face, my friend
Better get out, better get out
Breakout
Song by Foo Fighters ‧ 1999
Wake up in the morning
Clock says half past one
I have no sunglasses as I step into the sun
There's no recollection
Of the evil things I've done
Head feels like I must have had some fun
What Happened
Song by Sublime ‧ 1992
Blame it all on my roots, I showed up in boots
And ruined your black tie affair
The last one to know, the last one to show
I was the last one you thought you'd see there
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes
When are you gonna come down?
When are you going to land?
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Elton John ‧ 1973
Another time, another place, another line upon your face
Another in your wake
Down crooked stairs and sideway glances comes the king of second chances
Now throw him in the flames
Bridge Burning
Song by Foo Fighters ‧ 2011
Oh well, the bars are always open
And the time is always right
And if God's good word goes unspoken
The music goes all night
And it goes
If I were Bob Marley, I'd say, "Could you be loved?"
And if I was Half Pint, or with my Lord up above
If I was Mike Tyson, I would look for a fight
And if I was a Boomtown Rat, I would be staying up all night
If I was the king Ad-Rock, I would get stupid dumb
If rhymes were Valiums, I'd be comfortably numb
Six o'clock on Friday evening
Momma doesn't know she's leaving
'Til she hears the screen door slamming
Rubber squealin', gears a-jamming
Living is easy with eyes closed
Misunderstanding all you see
It's getting hard to be someone, but it all works out
It doesn't matter much to me
Let me take you down
