Lyrics...

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
 
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

Love that song.... second only to Breathe.....(on DSM) ... oh I don't know I love Great Gig In The Sky too!!!
 
I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.
See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly.
I'm crying.


Mister City Policeman sitting
Pretty little policemen in a row.
See how they fly like Lucy in the Sky, see how they run.
I'm crying, I'm crying.
I'm crying, I'm crying.
 
I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.
See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly.
I'm crying.


Mister City Policeman sitting
Pretty little policemen in a row.
See how they fly like Lucy in the Sky, see how they run.
I'm crying, I'm crying.
I'm crying, I'm crying.

I love that song too!

latest
 
The words began to stick and tears to flow
His meaning now was clear to see
The love he'd waited for
was someone else not me
Wouldn't you know it
 
Big bottom, big bottom
Talk about bum cakes, my girl's got 'em
Big bottom, drive me out of my mind
How could I leave this behind?
 
Yesterday,
I was screamin' at a rock pleadingly
It's bonejuice scrunched flogged tired dopamine...

Toadwise,
Backwards starfish hunt elk vitamins
They ate cerebellum diagonal monkey sins...

Magic metal mauled Jackie's lover
Double title iced half-dome's brother
Man with The Catcher escorts to deaths door
Paul just bluffed but Johnny got four

The pope was a muppet and Reagan was a robot
The Pooh Bear pillaged Nixon's honeypot.
Round room Billy stuffed tobacco dong
Wet sewed fabric and spit forked sing song

Shrubbery squeezed, sphere squirt petrol
Saladin's sand sucked uranium and flesh oil
Mayors never sizzle pearls in DC.
Red scaled mourners reap sunshine greentree
Sacrifice fly Al and Mo's men on the base scored
Yankee jumper prongs melted to the motherboard

A Bellyflop slide twix corners skewed 18
Another blip blanked and dug Keystone scenery
It's showtime eternal for Charlie Browned John Q
Electroded veggie gave roots to the kangaroo

That was yesterday,
Crunching chords for mental therapy,
Dead skin and blood on fretboard tapestry.
I mourn for yesterday
 
You bring me joy
When I'm down
Oh, so much joy
When I lose my way your love comes smiling on me
I saw your face
And then I knew
We would be friends
I was so afraid when your eyes, they'd say 'come to me'

"You Bring Me Joy" ~ (Anita Baker)
 
Waiting For A Star To Fall (Boy Meets Girl)

I hear your name whispered on the wind
It's a sound that makes me cry

I hear a song blow again and again
Through my mind and I don't know why

I wish I didn't feel so strong about you
Like happiness and love revolve around you

Trying to catch your heart
Is like trying to catch a star
So many people love you, baby
That must be what you are


Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah

I've learned to feel what I cannot see
But with you I lose that vision
I don't know how to dream your dream
So I'm all caught up in superstition
I want to reach out and pull you to me
Who says I should let a wild one go free

Trying to catch your heart is like
Trying to catch a star
But I can't love you this much, baby
And love you from this far

Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah

Waiting
(However long)
I don't like waiting
(I'll wait for you)

It's so hard waiting
(Don't be too long)
Seems like waiting
Makes me love you even more

Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah
 
Black (Pearl Jam)

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did.
All five horizons revolved around her soul as the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn

Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore

And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds of what was everything.
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

I take a walk outside, I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head, I'm spinning, oh,
I'm spinning, how quick the sun can drop away

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be... yeah...

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky,
But why, why, why can't it be, can't it be mine?
 
If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day till eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again, I would spend them with you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do, once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with

If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty, except for the memory of how
They were answered by you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do, once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with
 
"If I Could Change Your Mind"

I prefer to spend my time is solitary ways
Keeping myself to myself
Can't pretend that it's been easy since you went away
Living with somebody else

If you should change your mind
If you would turn around and look behind
If you could see me the way I used to be
At the risk of bringing back the sorrow and despair
I would do it all again
Holding on to memories and pretending not to care
Knowing that the show was soon to end

If only I could change your mind
If only you would change
If I had the chance I'd do it all again
I would do it all again

I remember windy shores on melancholy days
Drifting along with the tide
And the joy of simple things and ordinary ways
Taking is all in my stride

If you should change your mind
If I could let you see what lies behind
If you could need me the way it used to be
Even for a moment of the happy times we shared
Living in my dreams since then
At the risk of losing only castles in the air
Come with me and we can try again
Oh, if I could change your mind

Can't pretend it's not been lonely since you went away
Oh, if only I could change your mind

 
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time stood still
Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing stretching every nerve
Had to listen had no choice
I did not believe the information
(I) just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom boom boom
"Son," he said "Grab your things,
I've come to take you home."

To keep in silence I resigned
My friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would soon be shut
So I went from day to day
Tho' my life was in a rut
"Till I thought of what I'd say
Which connection I should cut
I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom boom boom
"Hey" he said "Grab your things
I've come to take you home."
(Back home.)

When illusion spin her net
I'm never where I want to be
And liberty she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouettes
Who close their eyes but still can see
No one taught them etiquette
I will show another me
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom boom boom
"Hey" I said "You can keep my things,
they've come to take me home."

 
"Home"

Here's a song
From the wrong side of town
Where I'm bound
To the ground
By the loneliest sound
That pounds from within
And is pinning me down

Here's a page
From the emptiest stage
A cage or the heaviest cross ever made
A gauge of the deadliest trap ever laid

And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong here

The heat and the sickliest
Sweet smelling sheets
That cling to the backs of my knees
And my feet
But I'm drowning in time
To a desperate beat

And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong

Feels like home
I should have known
From my first breath

God sent the only true friend
I call mine
Pretend that I'll make amends
The next time
Befriend the glorious end of the line

And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong here


 
To me, this is one of the best songs that have ever been put out there.

Children Go and run and jump and play
You'll be Men and women someday
Then you'll have to leave
Your world of make believe
Now children

Young Carefree Children

Children Need someone to understand
Children Need someone to hold their hands
To cheer them when they're sad
To spank them when they're bad
Children

Haughty Naughty Children

Pride goes before destruction
A holy spirit goes before a fall
Don't you know that we're all children
And it's all for one and one for all mmm

Children Call each other names
Children Play little grown-up games
And the thing that's really sad
Is We lose the faith we had
When we were children

Loud Proud Children

Children Who think that they are grown
Children With children of their own
From the cradle to the grave
Why must we all behave
like Children (na na na na na na na na na na na na)

Lost Lonely Children
Lost Lonely Children
Loud Proud Children
Lonely Lost Children
Haughty Naughty Children



God bless you and his family always!!!

Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb?

Mother do you think they'll like this song?

Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls?

Ooh, ah
Mother should I build the wall?
Mother should I run for President?
Mother should I trust the government?
Mother will they put me in the firing mine?
Ooh ah,
Is it just a waste of time?

Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry.
Mama's gonna make all your nightmares come true.
Mama's gonna put all her fears into you.
Mama's gonna keep you right here under her wing.
She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing.
Mama's gonna keep baby cozy and warm.
Ooh baby, ooh baby, ooh baby,
Of course mama's gonna help build the wall.

Mother do you think she's good enough?
For me?
Mother do you think she's dangerous,
To me?
Mother will she tear your little boy apart?
Ooh ah,
Mother will she break my heart?

Hush now baby, baby don't you cry.
Mama's gonna check out all your girlfriends for you.
Mama won't let anyone dirty get through.
Mama's gonna wait up until you get in.
Mama will always find out where you've been.
Mama's gonna keep baby healthy and clean.
Ooh baby, ooh baby, ooh baby,
You'll always be baby to me.

Mother, did it need to be so high?
 
It was an April morning when they told us we should go
As I turn to you, you smiled at me
How could we say no?

With all the fun to have,
To live the dreams we always had
Oh, the songs to sing,
When we at last return again

Sending off a glancing kiss,
To those who claim they know
Below the streets that steam and hiss,
The devil's in his hole

Oh to sail away,
To sandy lands and other days
Oh to touch the dream,
Hides inside and never seen.

Into the sun the south the north,
At last the birds have flown
The shackles of commitment fell,
In pieces on the ground

Oh to ride the wind,
To tread the air above the din
Oh to laugh aloud,
Dancing as we fought the crowd

To seek the man whose pointing hand,
The giant step unfolds
With guidance from the curving path,
That churns up into stone

If one bell should ring,
In celebration for a king
So fast the heart should beat,
As proud the head with heavy feet.

Days went by when you and I,
Bathed in eternal summers glow
As far away and distant,
Our mutual child did grow

Oh the sweet refrain,
Soothes the soul and calms the pain
Oh Albion remains,
Sleeping now to rise again

Wandering & wandering,
What place to rest the search
The mighty arms of Atlas,
Hold the heavens from the earth

The mighty arms of Atlas,
Hold the heavens from the earth
From the earth...

I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way (X2)

Oh the mighty arms of Atlas,
Hold the heavens from the earth.
 
YEAHHHH!

We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgment of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again

The change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fold, that's all
And the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they are flown in the next war

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
No, no

I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
Though I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do ya?

There's nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Are now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no

Yeah!

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss
 
The ol' cat on the roof
He could stand a little push
'Cause he's got nine good lives to live

But like my Mama said
You only live 'til your dead
And you got to give and give and give

There's a pebble in the pond
Rollin' on and on
Makin' waves and tides and ripples and rain

There's a leaf in the wind
That don't know where to end
Chasin' days and ways and wishes and dreams

Seems like everyone is out lookin' for the sun
Singin' rain and pain on he who hesitates
But it'll shine when it shines
You might think I'm wastin' time
But I'm just a good ol' boy that's learned to wait

Whippoorwill's in the dawn
Pretty soon he'll be gone
And he's got one good song to sing

But like my Daddy said
It's in your heart not your head
And you got to sing and sing and sing

There's a window in the wall
Lookin' out on it all
Leavin' fears and tears and troubles alone

There's a fire in the stove
Keepin' out the cold
Warmin' wine and winters and babies and homes

Seems like everyone is out lookin' for the sun
Singin' rain and pain on he who hesitates
But it'll shine when it shines
You might think I'm wastin' time
But I'm just a good ol' boy that's learned to wait
Yes, I'm just a good ol' boy that's learned to wait
