up on cripple creek - bob dylan


When i get off of this mountain

You know where i want to go

Straight down the mississippi river

To the gulf of mexico

To lake charles, louisiana

Little bessie, a girl that i once knew

And she told me just to come on by

If there's anything she could do

{refrain}

Up on cripple creek she sends me

If i spring a leak she mends me

I don't have to speak she defends me

A drunkard's dream if i ever did see one

Good luck had just stung me

To the race track i did go

She bet on one horse to win

And i bet on another to show

Odds were in my favor

I had him five to one

When that nag to win came around the track

Sure enough he had won

{refrain}

I took up all of my winnings

And i gave my little bessie half

And she tore it up and blew it in my face

Just for a laugh

Now there's one thing in the whole wide world

I sure would like to see

That's when that little love of mine

Dips her doughnut in my tea

{refrain}

Now me and my mate were back at the shack

We had spike jones on the box

She said, "i can't take the way he sings

But i love to hear him talk"

Now that just gave my heart a fall

To the bottom of my feet

And i swore as i took another pull

My bessie can't be beat

{refrain}

Now, it's hot in california

And up north it's freezing cold

And this living off the road

Is getting pretty old

So i guess i'll call up my big mama

Tell her i'll be rolling in

Bet you know, deep down, i'm kinda tempted

To go and see my bessie again

Canibus
Take this job and shove it


Yo 6 o'clock every morning you waking up yawning
To the sound of your alarm clock alarmin'
About an hour from now
You should be at the place of employment
Which is annoying cause it's so boring
Your co-workers are talking too loud for you to ignore them
It affects your occupational performance
You wonder why your work load is so enormous
Because your boss just laid off three quarters of the whole office
People get depressed, they get ulcers
From the stress that the corporate environment causes
Regardless of how you ultimately wanna solve this
Seems to me like you've got one of four choices:
You could take a new job offer for more chips
Stick it out a little longer or forfeit
But my advice to anybody that wants to quit
It'll feel much better if you say it like this:

[biz markie]
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin here no more
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin here no more
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin here no more
Take this job, take this job, take this job and shove it

[canibus]
Yo, if your boss is a s-o-b
Tell him to s-h-o-v-e the j-o-b
Put your middle finger up slowly
Put it close enough to his face so he can examine it closely
Say i ain't workin here no more
Who do you think you are?
Rip your apron off, throw it on the floor
Run to the door, to the payphone
Make a toll-free call
Tell your spouse what happened and where you are
So they can come and get you in the car later on
And help you search for a new 9 to 5 job
If the unemployment line ain't that long
You can take your time printin out w-9 forms
Eventually, you'll get on if you try hard enough
And you'll get money if you keep punchin your time card enough
Maybe you hate it, maybe you love it
But if you hate it all you gotta do is get mad and tell the boss to

[biz markie]
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin here no more
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin here no more
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin here no more
Take this job, take this job, take this job and shove it

[canibus]
Yo, some occupations are like slave gigs
The boss' favorite gets placed in something spacious
While the most hated get placed in some small cubicle spaces
Or get thrown down in the basement, get your stapler confiscated
You constantly waitin for a paycheck
Twelve months passed by and you still ain't get paid yet
Here's a optimistic motto
If you ever late for today you could say you early for tomorrow
Most 9 to 5's are hard
Cause the description in the job ain't no picnic in the park
People get hired
Drink coffee to stay wired
So they don't get tired, sleep late, and get fired

[biz markie]
You came in late, you already ate,
Nowww, you wanna take a lunch break!??!

[canibus]
Ay, yo bust it, ain't no need to discuss it
Just take this job and shove it, right between your buttocks

[biz markie]
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin here no more
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin here no more
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin here no more
Take this job, take this job, take this job and shove it

Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin here no more
Ah ah ah ah ahahah ah
I ain't workin here no more
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin here no more
Ay ay ay ayee ay
I ain't workin here no more

The King of Carrot Flowers - Part One
(jeff mangum; Neutral Milk Hotel)


When you were young
You were the king of carrot flowers
And how you built a tower tumbling through the trees
In holy rattlesnakes that fell all around your feet

And your mom would stick a fork right into daddy's shoulder
And your dad would throw the garbage all across the floor
As we would lay and learn what each other's bodies were for

And this is the room one afternoon I knew I could love you
And from above you how I sank into your soul
Into that secret place where no one dares to go

And your mom would drink until she was no longer speaking
And dad would dream of all the different ways to die
Each one a little more than he could dare to try

Two-Headed Boy

Two headed boy
All floating in glass
The sun it has passed
Now it's blacker than black
I can hear as you tap on your jar
And I am listening to hear where you are
I am listening to hear where you are

Two headed boy
Put on Sunday shoes
And dance round the room to accordion keys
With the needle that sings in your heart
Catching signals that sound in the dark
Catching signals that sound in the dark
We will take off our clothes
And they'll be placing fingers through the notches in your spine
And when all is breaking everything that you could keep beside
Now your eyes ain't moving now
They just lay there in their cloud

Two headed boy
With pulleys and weights
Creating a radio play just for two
In a parlor with a moon across her face
And through the music he sweetly displays
Silver speakers that sparkle all day
Made for his lover who's floating and choking with her hands across her face
And in the dark we will take off our clothes
And they'll be placing fingers through the notches in your spine
And when all is breaking everything that you could keep beside
Now your eyes ain't moving now
They just lay there in their cloud

Two headed boy
There's no reason to grieve
The world that you need is wrapped in gold silver sleeves
Left beneath Christmas trees in the snow
And I will take you and leave you alone
Watching spirals of white softly flow
Over your eyelids and all you did
Will wait until the point when you let go

Two-Headed Boy Pt. Two

Daddy please hear this song that I sing
In your heart there's a spark that just screams
For a lover to bring a child to your chest that could lay as you sleep
And love all you have left like your boy used to be
Long ago wrapped in sheets warm and wet

Sister please with those wings in your spine
Love to be with a brother of mine
How he'd love to find your tongue in his teeth
In a struggle to find secret songs that you keep wrapped in boxes so tight
Sounding only at night as you sleep

in my dreams you're alive and you're crying
as your mouth moves in mine, soft and sweet
rings of flowers 'round your eyes and i love you
for the rest of your life and you're (?)

Brother see we are one in the same
And you left with your head filled with flames
And you watched as your brains fell out through your teeth
Push the pieces in place
Make your smile sweet to see
Don't you take this away
I'm still wanting my face on your cheek

And when we break we'll wait for our miracle
God is a place where some holy spectacle lies
And when we break we'll wait for our miracle
God is a place you will wait for the rest of your life

Two headed boy she is all you could need
She will feed you tomatoes and radio wires
And retire to sheets safe and clean
But don't hate her when she gets up to leave


(All his lyrics, like his music, are amazing. http://sadtomato.net/NMH/NMH_lyrics.htm )

Checking this out makes me nostalgic for my MIA Libra friend, he used to play me stuff off of 'In The Aeroplane Over The Sea' all the time! I'll have to call him up and get him babbling about NMH

Isn't It A Pity - George Harrison

Isn't it a pity,
Isn't it a shame
How we break each other's hearts,
And cause each other pain
How we take each other's love
Without thinking anymore
Forgetting to give back
Isn't it a pity

Some things take so long, but how do I explain?
When not too many people
Can see we're all the same
And because of all their tears,
Their eyes can't hope to see
The beauty that surrounds them-
Oh isn't it a pity

Beware of Darkness- George Harrison

Watch out now,
Take care beware of falling swingers
Dropping all around you,
The pain that often mingles in your fingertips
Beware of darkness

Watch out now,
Take care, beware the thoughts that linger
Winding up inside your head
The hopelessness around you
In the dead of night
Beware of sadness

It can hit you, it can hurt you-
Make you sore and what is more,
That is not what you are here for

Watch out now, take care,
Beware of soft shoe shufflers
Dancing down the sidewalks,
As each unconcsious sufferer
Wanders aimlessly,
Beware of MAYA
Watch out now take care,
Beware of greedy leaders
They'll take you where you should not go,
While Weeping Atlas Cedars
They just want to grow-
Beware of darkness


^ I love All Things Must Pass . He was such a Pisces.

Indeed... I wonder how ol' Mr. Libra is doing.


I Can by Nas

[Kids]
I know I can (I know I can)
Be what I wanna be (be what I wanna be)
If I work hard at it (If I work hard at it)
I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I wanna be)

[Nas]
Be, B-Boys and girls, listen up
You can be anything in the world, in God we trust
An architect, doctor, maybe an actress
But nothing comes easy it takes much practice
Like, I met a woman who's becoming a star
She was very beautiful, leaving people in awe
Singing songs, Lina Horn, but the younger version
Hung with the wrong person
Got her strung on that
Heroin, cocaine, sniffin up drugs all in her nose...
Coulda died, so young, now looks ugly and old
No fun cause now when she reaches for hugs people hold they breath
Cause she smells of corrosion and death
Watch the company you keep and the crowd you bring
Cause they came to do drugs and you came to sing
So if you gonna be the best, I'ma tell you how,
Put your hands in the air, and take a vow

[Chorus - 2x (Nas and Kids)]
I know I can (I know I can)
Be what I wanna be (be what I wanna be)
If I work hard at it (If I work hard at it)
I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I wanna be)

[Nas]
Be, B-Boys and girls, listen again
This is for grown looking girls who's only ten
The ones who watch videos and do what they see
As cute as can be, up in the club with fake ID
Careful, 'fore you meet a man with HIV
You can host the TV like Oprah Winfrey
Whatever you decide, be careful, some men be
Rapists, so act your age, don't pretend to be
Older than you are, give yourself time to grow
You thinking he can give you wealth, but so
Young boys, you can use a lot of help, you know
You thinkin life's all about smokin weed and ice
You don't wanna be my age and can't read and write
Begging different women for a place to sleep at night
Smart boys turn to men and do whatever they wish
If you believe you can achieve, then say it like this

[Chorus]

[Nas]
Be, be, 'fore we came to this country
We were kings and queens, never porch monkeys
There was empires in Africa called Kush
Timbuktu, where every race came to get books
To learn from black teachers who taught Greeks and Romans
Asian Arabs and gave them gold when
Gold was converted to money it all changed
Money then became empowerment for Europeans
The Persian military invaded
They heard about the gold, the teachings, and everything sacred
Africa was almost robbed naked
Slavery was money, so they began making slave ships
Egypt was the place that Alexander the Great went
He was so shocked at the mountains with black faces
Shot up they nose to impose what basically
Still goes on today, you see?
If the truth is told, the youth can grow
Then learn to survive until they gain control
Nobody says you have to be gangstas, hoes
Read more learn more, change the globe
Ghetto children, do your thing
Hold your head up, little man, you're a king
Young Princess when you get your wedding ring
Your man is saying "She's my queen"

[Chorus]

Save the music y'all, save the music y'all
Save the music y'all, save the music y'all
Save the music

Ooh ooh ooh... and

Ordinary People by John Legend

Baby, It's me... Maybe I bore you
No, No it's my fault cause I can't afford you
[Verse 1]

Girl im in love with you
This ain't the honeymoon
Past the infatuation phase
Right in the thick of love
At times we get sick of love
It seems like we argue everyday

[Bridge]

I know i misbehaved
And you made your mistakes
And we both got room left to grow
And though love sometimes hurts
I still put you first
And we'll make this thing work
But I think we should take it slow

[Chorus]

We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Cuz we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow

[Verse 2]

This ain't a movie no
No fairy tale conclusion ya'll
It gets more confusing everyday
Sometimes it's heaven sent
We head back to hell again
We kiss and we make up on the way

[Bridge]

I hang up you call
We rise and we fall
And we feel just like walking away
But as our love advances
We take second chances
Though it's not a fantasy
I Still want you to stay

[Chorus]

We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Cuz we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow

[Verse 3]

Take it slow
Maybe we'll live and learn
Maybe we'll crash and burn
Maybe you'll stay, maybe you'll leave,
maybe you'll return
Maybe you'll never find
Maybe we won't survive
But maybe we'll grow
You never know baby youuuu and I

[Chorus]

We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Cuz we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow (Heyyy)
We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Cuz we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow

I can't stand the above song. It probably has to do with the video, because it contains nothing but couples arguing, and even a dude slapping his gf. Blah!

I am ready for love
Why are you hiding from me?
I'd quickly give my freedom
to be held in your captivity

I am ready for love
All of the joy and the pain
And all the time that it takes
just to stay in your good grace

Lately Ive been thinking maybe
you're not ready for me
maybe you think I need to
learn maturity

They say watch what you ask for
for you might receive
But if you ask me tomorrow
I'll say the same thing

I am ready for love
Would you please lend me your ear
I promise i won't complain
I just need to you acknowledge I am here

If you give me half a chance
i'll prove this you to you
I will be patient, kind, faithful and true
to a man who loves music
a man who loves art
respects the spirit world
and thinks with his heart

I am ready for love
if you'll take me in your hands
I will learn what you teach
And do the best that I can

I am ready for love
Here with an offering of
my thoughts, my eyes, my soul, my mind
Tell me what is in my heart
to prove I am ready for love
I am ready

Hey cool marycarmen! Yeah, it's a great song. Do you have any favorites you'd like to share?

Here's another one of my all time favorites. I've had one part of it playing over and over in my head all day (the bolded part).

Buckets of Rain
~ Bob Dylan

Buckets of rain
Buckets of tears
Got all them buckets comin' out of my ears.
Buckets of moonbeams in my hand,
I got all the love, honey baby,
You can stand.

I been meek
And hard like an oak
I seen pretty people disappear like smoke.
Friends will arrive, friends will disappear,
If you want me, honey baby,
I'll be here.

Like your smile
And your fingertips
Like the way that you move your lips.
I like the cool way you look at me,
Everything about you is bringing me
Misery.

Little red wagon
Little red bike
I ain't no monkey but I know what I like.
I like the way you love me strong and slow,
I'm takin' you with me, honey baby,
When I go.

Life is sad
Life is a bust
All ya can do is do what you must.
You do what you must do and ya do it well,
I'll do it for you, honey baby,
Can't you tell?

Love, love, love that one.

yup!! that movie was great.....
and Canibus is the greatest rapper ever!!!

**********

Canibus - I Honor U
Album: Can I Bus
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chorus: (Sung by a woman)

We'll never part (through) sickness and health
You are my heart
I love you more than I love myself
But in the middle of the night
I heard you cryin' in your sleep
It'll be all right I'll be there for you
If you tell me all your secrets
Yet in the middle of the night
I heard you cryin' in your sleep I held you tight
I'll be there for you......
If you tell me all your secrets

Canibus verse 1

Aye Yo!
Boy meets girl, boy really likes her
Boy loses contact with girl but he finds her
Girl has no clue that boy is a liar, and he has no honor.
So she dates him regardless, 'cause she thought he was harmless
And he had her believing' he was the man she wanted.
To spend the rest of her life with. The words "I love you" are
Priceless, unpredictable like rollin' dice is.
Nonetheless inspite of the fright
And repercussions you might get people still risk they necks.
Of course it's nice the feelin' of courtship
Roses and stuff, women never get it often enough.
And the reason people love they mother so much
Besides the fact she carried you for nine months, is trust.
It's a five letter word, that should only occur between him and her
Before the bees and the birds...word!

You are my heart
I love you more than I love myself
But in the middle of the night
I heard you cryin' in your sleep
It'll be all right I'll be there for you
If you tell me all your secrets
Yet in the middle of the night...

Aye Yo!
I heard a soft moan in the middle of March,
Then I felt a powerful force push me forward like a dart.
On your mark, get set, GO!
I was off, flagella was my propellor wiggling back and forth.
Then I set across for the border, Mother Nature's callin'
Calling me to the rock of Gibraltar.
The compitition tried to be smart but I was smarter.
My competitors was swimmin' fast so I swam harder.
Submerged in water, prayin' to my heavenly father
If I don't make it through I'm a "goner."
Screaming out death before dishonor, because I'm awesomely
Stronger, my stamina last longer. I was destined to be a son
Instead of a daughter, XY is the male chromosomal order.
One'll stay alive, and survive, the rest'll be dead
'Cuz I'm a be the one to fertilize that egg (echoes out)

In the middle of the night
I heard you cryin' in your sleep I held you tight
I'll be there for you....
If you tell me all your secrets.


Aye Yo!
Mommy I'm up in your stomach, buggin'. Whenever you
Rub it, I love it like a comforters covers you warm as a oven.
Your husband...stubborn, how can you love him.
Smokin' cigarettes by the dozen when he knows that I'm comin'.
Bad move, you hopin' that daddy improves.
Knowin' in your heart that's bull, because he's too cruel.
You've been abused, used, you got wounds and scars.
Stick with your mind not with your heart, let's go to grandma's.
Terminate the lease call the landlord. Give your job two weeks notice
Pack up the car, and go to New York. What part.
They got a little borough called The Bronx, Mom..
And I heard that's where hip-hop is gonna start.
Yeah, I think we need to be right there. Four months
In your stomach and I already chose a career. When you cry
I hear, and I wish I could dry your tears, but I can't 'cuz I'm stuck
in here.
Five months from being able to lay against your chest
I can't even hold you in my arms, 'cuz they ain't developed yet.
But I swear to you, as the God Almighty Truth
I'm a be there for you
I'm a be there for you.

Chorus to fade

Hey petron, those were some beautiful lyrics right there. Havent heard that one. Wow.
I'm a Method Man fan and I like Nas (old Nas, dont know his new stuff) .... and Biggie. Trying to remember the stuff I used to listen to with my brother. He listened to mostly underground rap - some really good stuff. Sunz of Man was one - awesome. Eli and ......cant remember. I've been meaning to pick up a Slick Rick album for awhile too. Love him.

La-Di-Da-Di

This is something you never witnessed before...
Yes, it’s the incredible doug e. fresh...
With his partner, the grand wizard mc, ricky d
D, and that’s me in the place to be.
We goin’ to do it for ’85, kick it live, allright?
Cuz you know, you’re all sick of all these crap rappers
Biting their rhymes because of they’re back steppers.
But when it comes to me and my man doug fresh here,
There is no competition ’cause we are the best, yeah.
But as impress, which we approve
And yeah, we realize that we are on the move,
So listen closely so y’all don’t miss
As we go a little something like this, hit it!

La-di-da-di...
La-di-da-di...
La-di, da-di!
Yo peep this

La-di-da-di, we like to party
We don’t cause trouble, we don’t bother nobody
We’re, just some men that’s on the mic
And when we rock upon the mic we rock the mic right
For all of y’all, keep y’all in health
Just to see you smile and enjoy yourself
Cause it’s cool when you cause a cozy conditioning
Which we create, cause that’s our mission
So listen close, to what we say
Because this type of **** happens everyday
I woke up around ten o’clock in the morning
I gave myself a stretch up, a morning yawn and
Went to the bathroom to wash up
Put some soap on my face and my hand upon a cup, said
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who is the top choice of them all
There was a rumble tumble, five minutes it lasted
The mirror said, you are you conceited ******* !
Well that true, that why we never had no beef
Then I washed off the soap and brushed the gold teeth
Used oil of olay cause my skin gets pail
And then I grabbed the file for my finger nails
I’m true to the style on my behalf
I put the bubbles in the tub so I could take a bubble bath
Clean, dry, was my, body and hair
I threw on my brand new gucci underwear
For all the girls I might take home
I got the johnson’s baby powder and the polo cologne
Fresh dress, like a million bucks,
Put on the bally shoes and the fly green socks.
Stepped out the house stopped short, oh no
Went back in I forgot my kangol
Then I dilly, dally, I ran through the alley
I bumped into this homegirl named sally from the valley
This was a girl playing hard to get
So I said what’s wrong? cause she looked upset
She said uh, it’s all because of you
I’m feeling sad and blue
You went away
And now my life is filled with rainy days
I love you so
How much you’ll never know
Cause you took your love away from me
Now what was I to do
She was crying over me and she was feeling blue
I said, don’t cry, dry, your eyes
Here comes your mother with those two little guys
Her mean mother steps and says to me hi!
Hit sally in the face and punched her in the eye
Kicked her in the belly, and stepped on her feet
Slammed the child on the hard concrete
The ***** was strong, the kids was gone
Something was wrong I said what was going on?
I tried to break it up I said, stop it, leave her
She said, if I can’t have you she can’t either
She grabbed me closely by my socks
So I broke the hell out like I had the chicken pox
But uh, she gave chase, she caught up quick
She put a finger in the face of mc rick, and said
Why don’t you give me some play?
And we can go cruising in my (oj)
And if you give me that ok
I’ll give you all my love today
Ricky ricky ricky, can’t you see
Somehow your words just hypnotize me
And I just love your jazzy ways
So mc rick my love is here to stay
And on and on and on she kept on
The ***** been around before my mother’s born
I said, cheer up! I gave her a kiss
I said, you can’t have me I’m too young for you miss
She said, no you’re not, then she starts crying
I says, I’m nineteen, she says, stop lying!
I said, I am -- go ask my mother
And with your wrinkled pussy, I can’t be your lover!
To the heart tick tock you don’t stop
To the heart tick tock you don’t quit, hit it!

...don’t ever forget, doug e. fresh, and mc ricky d...

hehehe

Lauren Hill
Everything Is Everything

Everything Is Everything
Everything is everything
What is meant to be, will be
After winter, must come spring
Change, it comes eventually

I wrote these words for everyone
Who struggles in their youth
Who won't accept deception
Instead of what is truth
It seems we lose the game,
Before we even start to play
Who made these rules? We're so confused
Easily led astray
Let me tell ya that
Everything is everything
Everything is everything
After winter, must come spring
Everything is everything

I philosophy
Possibly speak tongues
Beat drum, Abyssinian, street Baptist
Rap this in fine linen
From the beginning
My practice extending across the atlas
I begat this
Flippin' in the ghetto on a dirty mattress
You can't match this rapper /slash/ actress
More powerful than two Cleopatras
Bomb graffiti on the tomb of Nefertiti
MCs ain't ready to take it to the Serengeti
My rhymes is heavy like the mind of Sister Betty
L. Boogie spars with stars and constellations
Then came down for a little conversation
Adjacent to the king, fear no human being
Roll with cherubims to Nassau Coliseum
Now hear this mixture
Where hip hop meets scripture
Develop a negative into a positive picture

Now, everything is everything
What is meant to be, will be
After winter, must come spring
Change, it comes eventually

Sometimes it seems
We'll touch that dream
But things come slow or not at all
And the ones on top, won't make it stop
So convinced that they might fall
Let's love ourselves then we can't fail
To make a better situation
Tomorrow, our seeds will grow
All we need is dedication

Let me tell ya that,
Everything is everything
Everything is everything
After winter, must come spring
Everything is everything

Everything is everything
What is meant to be, will be
After winter, must come spring
Change, it comes eventually

Lauren Hill's great.

I wonder if you listen to Erykah Badu. She's up there in my top 10. Gorgeous voice. I could listen to her album 'Mama's Gun' on repeat for days.

Erykah Badu
.....& On

A one-one, two one two
On & on & on & on
Wake the f*** up 'cause it's been too long
Say wait a minute, Queen
What's your name
I be that gypsy
Flippin' life game from the right brain
Ascension maintained
Rolling through like a burning flame
Like a super nova star
She be the light
When they in the dark
Morning
The moon pass the sun
Four constellations start forming
Across up in the sky
But everybody wanna ask me why

What good do your words do
If they can't understand you
Don't go talkin' that ish Badu, Badu

What good do your words do
If they can't understand you
Don't go talkin' that ish Badu, Badu

Said I'm a Pisces
Zika deka del
Well well I'm raising hell
People always tryin' to find the world I'm in
I'm the envy of the women and I rule the men

2 fish, 1 swimmin' up stream
1 swimmin' down livin' in a dream
But when she loves she tends to cling
When incense burns, smoke unfurls
Analog girl in a digital world
The rasta style flower child
Zip dip dow, zip dip dow
The gold tooth smile
Split them vowels
Bling bloom bling, melinated
I'm 'bout ta give birth to church
But everybody want to ask this earth
What'

What good do your words do
If they can't understand you
Don't go talkin' that ish Badu, Badu

Bridge!

Orange Moon ~ E. Badu

I'm an Orange Moon
I'm an Orange Moon
Reflecting the light of the sun

Many nights he was alone
Many, many, many nights
His light was so bright that they turned away
And he stood alone
Every night and every day
Then he turned to me
He saw his reflection in me
And he smiled at me when he turned to me
Then he said to me

How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is

I'm an Orange Moon
I'm brighter than before
Brighter than ever before
I'm an Orange Moon and I shine so bright
Cause I reflect the light of my sun
I praise the day, he turned my way
And smiled at me
He gets to smile and I get to be orange, that I love to be.............

'danger zone' from 'top gun'...

Revvin' up your engine
Listen to her howlin' roar
Metal under tension
Beggin' you to touch and go
Highway to the Danger Zone
Ride into the Danger Zone
Headin' into twilight
Spreadin' out her wings tonight
She got you jumpin' off the track
And shovin' into overdrive
Highway to the Danger Zone
I'll take you
Right into the Danger Zone
You'll never say hello to you
Until you get it on the red line overload
You'll never know what you can do
Until you get it up as high as you can go
Out along the edges
Always where I burn to be
The further on the edge
The hotter the intensity
Highway to the Danger Zone
Gonna take you
Right into the Danger Zone
Highway to the Danger Zone

'Sweetness' by YES

She brings the sunshine to a rainy afternoon;
She puts the sweetness in, stirs it with a spoon.
She watches for my moods, never brings me down;
She puts the sweetness in, all around.
She knows just what to say to make me feel so good inside.
And when I'm all alone I feel I don't want to hide, hide, hide.

Today she brought me in, told me where she'd been;
She put my mind at rest, put the sweetness in.
I'll ask her for some time to go and look around;
She puts the sweetness in with a sound.
She knows just what to say to make a sunny day.
And when I'm all alone I really don't feel that way.
Tell me, how would you feel with no world of your own and nobody to
hold?
I just can't see the way; I'm so glad it's today and you're here, you're here.

She brings the sunshine to a rainy afternoon;
She puts the sweetness in, stirs it with a spoon.
She watches for my moods, never brings me down;
She puts the sweetness in, all around.
She knows just what to say to make me feel so good inside.
And when I'm all alone I really don't feel that way.

Oh how I need her so,
I know she'll never go. Doo doo doo doot n doo.
She'll never leave me, believe me, no. Doo doo doo doot n doo.
She'll never go, no no no no no no no no no no no no.
