<b>Lyrics</b><br />
<br />
<div class="copy-paste-block">
Oh yeah<br />
Alright<br />
<br />
Somebody's Heine'<br />
Is crowdin' my icebox<br />
Somebody's cold one<br />
Is givin' me chills<br />
Guess I'll just close my eyes<br />
<br />
Oh yeah<br />
Alright<br />
Feels good<br />
Inside<br />
<br />
Flip on the tele<br />
Wrestle with Jimmy<br />
Something is bubbling<br />
Behind my back<br />
The bottle is ready to blow<br />
<br />
Say it ain't so<br />
Your drug is a heartbreaker<br />
Say it ain't so<br />
My love is a life taker<br />
<br />
I can't confront you<br />
I never could do<br />
That which might hurt you<br />
So try and be cool<br />
When I say<br />
This way is a waterslide away from me<br />
That takes you further every day<br />
So be cool<br />
<br />
Say it ain't so<br />
Your drug is a heartbreaker<br />
Say it ain't so<br />
My love is a life taker<br />
<br />
Dear Daddy<br />
I write you in spite of years of silence<br />
You've cleaned up, found Jesus, things are good or so I hear<br />
This bottle of Steven's awakens ancient feelings<br />
Like father, stepfather, the son is drowning in the flood<br />
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah<br />
<br />
Say it ain't so<br />
Your drug is a heartbreaker<br />
Say it ain't so<br />
My love is a life taker<span><br /></span></div>

<br />
It's not important for you to know my name<br />
Nor I to know yours<br />
If we communicate for two minutes only<br />
It will be enough<br />
For knowing that someone in this world<br />
Feels as desperate as me<br />
And what you give is what you get.<br />
<br />
It doesn't matter if we never meet again,<br />
What we have said will always remain.<br />
If we get through for two minutes only,<br />
It will be a start!<br />
For knowing that someone in this life,<br />
Loves with a passion called hate<br />
And what you give is what you get.<br />
<br />
If I never ever see you -<br />
If I never ever see you -<br />

<br />
(from Wikipedia): Waits has a distinctive voice, described by critic Daniel Durchholz as sounding "like it was soaked in a vat of bourbon, left hanging in the smokehouse for a few months, and then taken outside and run over with a car." <br />

<b>Lyrics </b><br />
<br />
Well the moon is broken<br />
And the sky is cracked<br />
Come on up to the house<br />
The only things that you can see<br />
Is all that you lack-ing<br />
Come on up to the house<br />
<br />
All your cryin' don't do no good<br />
Come on up to the house<br />
Come down off the cross<br />
We can use the wood<br />
You got-ta come on up to the house<br />
<br />
(This is the chorus)<br />
Come on up to the house<br />
Come on up to the house<br />
The world is <b>not</b> my home<br />
I'm just a passin' thru<br />
You got-ta come on up to the house<br />
<br />
There's no light in the tunnel<br />
No irons in the fire<br />
Come on up... to the house<br />
And your singin' lead soprano<br />
In a junkman's choir<br />
You got-ta come on up to the house<br />
<br />
Doesn't life seem nasty, brutish and short?<br />
Come on up to the house<br />
The seas are stormy<br />
And you can't find no port<br />
Got-ta come on up to the house, yeah<br />
<br />
Gotta come on up to the house<br />
Gotta come on up to the house<br />
The world is <b>not</b> my home<br />
I'm just a passin' thru<br />
You got-ta come on up to the house<br />
<br />
There's nothin<i>'</i> in the world<br />
that you can do<br />
you gotta come on up to the house<br />
and you been whipped by the forces<br />
that are inside you<br />
gotta come on up to the house<br />
well you're high on top<br />
of your mountain of woe<br />
gotta come on up to the house<br />
well you <b>know</b> you should surrender<br />
but you can't let go<br />
you gotta come on up to the house<br />
<br />
Gotta come on up to the house<br />
Gotta come on up to the house<br />
The world is <b>not</b> my home<br />
I'm just a passin' thru<br />
You got-ta come on up to the house<br />
Gotta come on up to the house<br />
You gotta come on up to the <b>houuuuuse yeeeeeeeaaaahhhhh!!!!!</b><br />

The "yuppie nuremberg" defense is when someone
does something they know is wrong but tries justify it by simply saying
they're doing it for the money. typically a lame excuse. . from the
film, "thank you for smoking."</div>

<b>Lyrics</b><br />
<br />
It doesn't matter what I say<br />
So long as I sing with inflection<br />
That makes you feel that I'll convey<br />
Some inner truth of vast reflection<br />
But I've said nothing so far<br />
And I can keep it up for as long as it takes<br />
And it don't matter who you are<br />
If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks<br />
<br />
Because the hook brings you back<br />
I ain't tellin' you no lie<br />
The hook brings you back<br />
On that you can rely<br />
<br />
There is something amiss<br />
I am being insincere<br />
In fact I don't mean any of this<br />
Still my confession draws you near<br />
To confuse the issue I refer<br />
To familiar heroes from long ago<br />
No matter how much Peter loved her<br />
What made the Pan refuse to grow<br />
<br />
Was that the hook brings you back<br />
I ain't tellin' you no lie<br />
The hook brings you back<br />
On that you can rely<br />
<br />
Suck it in suck it in suck it in<br />
If you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn<br />
Make a desperate move or else you'll win<br />
And then begin<br />
To see<br />
What you're doing to me this MTV is not for free<br />
It's so PC it's killing me<br />
So desperately I sing to thee<br />
Of love<br />
Sure but also rage and hate and pain and fear of self<br />
And I can't keep these feelings on the shelf<br />
I've tried well no in fact I lied<br />
Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside<br />
To hide or slide<br />
I'll do as I'll decide and let it ride until I've died<br />
And only then shall I abide this tide<br />
Of catchy little tunes<br />
Of hip three minute ditties<br />
I wanna bust all your balloons<br />
I wanna burn all of your cities<br />
To the ground I've found<br />
I will not mess around<br />
Unless I play then hey<br />
I will go on all day hear what I say<br />
I have a prayer to pray<br />
That's really all this was<br />
And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck<br />
I don't rely on luck because...<br />
<br />
The hook brings you back<br />
I ain't tellin' you no lie<br />
The hook...<br />
On that you can rely</div>

<br />
Easier said than done - so set a reminder to yourself. For example, use Outlook or set the alarm on your cell phone. Good times are in the morning at around 9:30 and in the afternoon at around 3pm. At those times, force yourself to get up from your desk and go for a quick walk around the block, or several blocks if possible. About 10-15 minutes of brisk walking is ideal. Now, you won't always be free at precisely that time each day, and when that happens you need to use another hack. If that time of day isn't exactly right (maybe you are right in the middle of something) you should <b>snooze</b> the alarm for 15 minutes or 30 minutes and take your exercise break as soon as possible. DO NOT JUST TURN THE ALARM OFF. You are important, your need to stay healthy, so you <b>must</b> get your exercise for the day. Otherwise, studies show that you will become more prone to diseases such as heart disease and cancer.<br />
<br />
I expect some will be thinking "but my boss will get upset if I take time to do that". Well - if your boss really will get upset about you taking a little time to care for yourself, you should set the boss straight. You are going to take care of your health first. If your health goes downhill your life will suck so you <b>must</b> make it your number one priority, which means it's ahead of your job. If this doesn't fly with your boss, you need to do whatever is needed to fix this. One option is for you to find an alternative job.<br />

<br />
<div align="left" id="songlyrics" style="font-family: verdana;">
Sittin' in the morning sun<br />
I'll be sittin' when the evening comes<br />
Watching the ships roll in<br />
Then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah<br />
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay<br />
Watching the tide roll away<br />
Ooh, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time<br />
<span class="b-lyrics-from-signature"></span>I left my home in Georgia<br />
Headed for the Frisco bay<br />
'Cos I've had nothing to live for<br />
And look like nothing's gonna come my way<br />
So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay<br />
Watching the tide roll away<br />
Ooh, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time<br />
<br />
Look like nothing's gonna change<br />
Everything still remains the same<br />
I can't do what ten people tell me to do<br />
So I guess I'll remain the same, listen<br />
<br />
Sittin' here resting my bones<br />
And this loneliness won't leave me alone, listen<br />
2000 miles I've roamed <br />
Just to make this dock my home<br />
Now I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay<br />
Watching the tide roll away<br />
Ooh wee, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time</div>

So I'd like to know where, you got the notion<br />
Said I'd like to know where, you got the notion<br />
<br />
To rock the boat, don't rock the boat baby<br />
Rock the boat, don't tip the boat over<br />
Rock the boat, don't rock the boat baby<br />
Rock the boat-t-t-t-t<br />
<br />
Ever since our voyage of love began<br />
Your touch has thrilled me like the rush of the wind<br />
And your arms have held me safe from a rolling sea<br />
There's always been a quiet place to harbor you and me<br />
<span class="b-lyrics-from-signature"></span>Our love is like a ship on the ocean<br />
We've been sailing with a cargo full of, love and devotion<br />

So I'd like to know where, you got the notion<br />
Said I'd like to know where, you got the notion<br />

To rock the boat, don't rock the boat baby<br />
Rock the boat, don't tip the boat over<br />
Rock the boat, don't rock the boat baby<br />
Rock the boat-t-t-t-t<br />
<br />
Up to now we sailed through every storm<br />
And I've always had your tender lips to keep me warm<br />
Oh I need to have the strength that flows from you<br />
Don't let me drift away my dear, when love can see me through<br />
<br />
Our love is like a ship ...</div>

<br />
Let this groove get you to move<br />
It's alright, alright<br />
Let this groove set in your shoes<br />
Stand up, alright<br />
<br />
Gonna tell you what you can do<br />
With my love, alright<br />
Let you know, girl, you're looking good<br />
You're out of sight and alright<br />

Move yourself and glide like a 747<br />
Lose yourself in the sky<br />
Among the clouds in the heavens<br />
Let this groove light up your fuse, alright<br />

Let this groove set in your shoes<br />
Stand up, alright<br />
Let me tell you what you can do<br />

Gotta let you know, girl, you're looking good<br />
You're out of sight, you're alright<br />
Tell the DJ to play your favorite tune<br />
Then you know it's okay<br />
What you found is happiness, now<br />
<br />
Let this groove, get you to move, alright<br />
Let this groove set in your shoes<br />
Stand up, alright<br />
<br />
You will find peace of mind on the floor<br />
Take a little time, come and see, you and me<br />
Make a little sign, I'll be there after a while<br />
If you want my love<br />

<br />
Boy... <br />
Boy... <br />
Now in the street there is violence<br />
And - and a lots of work to be done<br />
No place to hang out our washing<br />
And - and I can't blame all on the sun<br />
Ref:<br />
Oh no we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue<br />
And then we'll take it higher<br />
Oh we gonna rock it down to Electric Avenue<br />
And then we'll take it higher<br />
Workin' so hard like a soldier<br />
Can't afford a thing on TV<br />
Deep in my heart I am a warrior<br />
Can't get food for them kid<br />
Ref:<br />
Good God we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue<br />
And then we'll take it higher<br />
Oh we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue<br />
And then we'll take it higher<br />
Interlude:<br />
Oh no<br />
Oh no<br />
Oh no<br />
Oh no<br />
Ref:<br />
Oh no we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue<br />
And then we'll take it higher<br />
Oh we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue<br />
And then we'll take it higher<br />
Who is to blame in one country<br />
Never can get to the one<br />
Dealin' in multiplication<br />
And they still can't feed everyone<br />
Ref:<br />
Oh no we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue<br />
And then we'll take it higher<br />
Oh no we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue<br />
And then we'll take it higher<br />

Out in the street<br />
Out in the street<br />
Out in the day time<br />
Out in the night<br />

Oh we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue<br />
And then we'll take it higher<br />
Oh, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue<br />
And then we'll take it higher<br />
3rd Interlude:<br />
Out in the street<br />
Out in the street<br />
Out in the playground<br />
In the dark side of town<br />
Ref:<br />
Oh, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue<br />
And then we'll take it higher<br />
Hey, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue<br />

<br />
<div align="left" id="songlyrics" style="font-family: verdana;">
They said release 'Remote Control' but we didn't want it on the label<br />
They said, "Fly to Amsterdam", the people laughed but the press went mad<br />
Someone's really smart<br />
Complete control, that's a laugh<br />
On the last tour my mates couldn't get in<br />
I'd open up the back door but they'd get run out again<br />
And at every hotel we was met by the law, come for the party, come to make sure<br />
Have we done something wrong?<br />
Complete control, even over this song<br />
<br />
You’re my guitar hero<br />
<span class="b-lyrics-from-signature"></span>They said we'd be artistically free when we signed that bit of paper<br />
They meant let's make a lotsa money</div>
<div align="left" id="songlyrics" style="font-family: verdana;">
and worry about it later<br />
I'll never understand<br />
Complete control, lemme see your other hand<br />
I don’t trust you, so why should you trust me?<br />
All over the news spread fast<br />
They’re dirty, they're filthy, they ain't gonna last<br />
This is Joe Public (Control) speaking<br />
I'm controlled in the body (We always hate control), controlled in the mind<br />
This is the top rockers (Control)<br />
With your zone in the price you whore, comes to me (C, O, N, control) <br />
Total, see you all in control<br />
Total (Parent, control), see you all in control<br />
<br />
We’ve got the rock ‘n’ roll ?????????? (C, O, N, control)<br />
That means you<br />
I kick it, I fight it, I gotta get up at it (C, O, N, control) <br />
I gotta kick it</div>

You don't like this town, do you Morrissey?<b><br /></b><br />
<br />
<b>Lyrics</b><br />
<br />
Trudging slowly over wet sand<br />
Back to the bench where your clothes were stolen<br />
This is the coastal town<br />
That they forgot to close down<br />
Armageddon - come armageddon!<br />
Come, armageddon! come!<br />
<br />
Everyday is like sunday<br />
Everyday is silent and grey<br />
<br />
<span class="b-lyrics-from-signature">[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/m/morrissey/everyday_is_like_sunday.html ]</span><br />
Hide on the promenade<br />
Etch a postcard :<br />
"how I dearly wish I was not here"<br />
In the seaside town<br />
...that they forgot to bomb<br />
Come, come, come - nuclear bomb<br />
<br />
<br />
Everyday is like sunday<br />
Everyday is silent and grey<br />
<br />
<br />
Trudging back over pebbles and sand<br />
And a strange dust lands on your hands<br />
(and on your face...)<br />
(on your face ...)<br />
(on your face ...)<br />
(on your face ...)<br />
<br />
<br />
Everyday is like sunday<br />
"win yourself a cheap tray"<br />
Share some greased tea with me<br />
Everyday is silent and grey<br />

<b>Lyrics</b><br />
<br />
Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk, <br />
I'm a woman's man: no time to talk. <br />
Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around <br />
Since I was born. <br />
And now it's all right. It's ok. <br />
And you may look the other way. <br />
We can try to understand <br />
The New York Times' effect on man. <br />
<br />
Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother, <br />
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive. <br />
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin', <br />
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive. <br />
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive. <br />
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive. <br />
<br />
Well now, I get low and I get high, <br />
And if I can't get either, I really try. <br />
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes. <br />
I'm a dancin' man and I just can't lose. <br />
You know it's all right. It's ok. <br />
I'll live to see another day. <br />
We can try to understand <br />
The New York Times' effect on man. <br />
<br />
Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother, <br />
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive. <br />

And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive. <br />
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive. <br />
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive. <br />

Somebody help me, yeah. <br />

<br />
Sun is shinin' in the sky<br />
There ain't a cloud in sight<br />
It's stopped rainin' everybody's in a play <br />
And don't you know<br />
It's a beautiful new day hey,hey<br />
<br />
Runnin' down the avenue<br />
See how the sun shines brightly in the city <br />
On the streets where once was pity <br />
Mister blue sky is living here today hey, hey<br />
<br />
Mister blue sky please tell us why <br />
You had to hide away for so long <br />
Where did we go wrong?<br />
<br />
Hey you with the pretty face<br />
Welcome to the human race<br />
A celebration, mister blue sky's up there waitin'<br />
And today is the day we've waited for <br />
<br />
Hey there mister blue <br />
We're so pleased to be with you<br />
Look around see what you do<br />
Everybody smiles at you<br />
<br />
Mister blue sky, mister blue sky<br />
Mister blue sky<br />
<br />
Mister blue, you did it right <br />
But soon comes mister night creepin' over<br />
Now his hand is on your shoulder<br />
Never mind I'll remember you this <br />
I'll remember you this way <br />
<br />
Mister blue sky please tell us why <br />
You had to hide away for so long <br />
Where did we go wrong?<br />
<br />
Hey there mister blue <br />
We're so pleased to be with you<br />
Look around see what you do<br />
Everybody smiles at you<br />

<b>Lyrics</b><br />
<br />
You know I need your love<br />
You've got that hold over me<br />
Long as I've got your love<br />
You know that I'll never leave<br />
When I wanted you to share my life<br />
I had no doubt in my mind<br />
And it's been you woman<br />
Right down the line<br />
<br />
I know how much I lean on you<br />
Only you can see<br />
The changes that I've been through <br />
Have left a mark on me<br />
You've been as constant as a Northern Star<br />
The brightest light that shines<br />
It's been you, woman, right down the line<br />
<br />
I just want to say this is my way<br />
Of tellin' you everything<br />
I could never say before <br />
Yeah this is my way of tellin' you <br />
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more<br />
'Cause you believed in me through my darkest night<br />
Put somethin' better inside of me<br />
You brought me into the light <br />
Threw away all those crazy dreams <br />
I put them all behind <br />
And it was you woman<br />
Right down the line<br />
<br />
I just want to say this is my way of tellin' you everything<br />
I could never say before <br />
Yeah this is my way of tellin' you <br />
Everything I could never say before <br />
Yeah this is my way of tellin' you <br />
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more<br />
<br />
If I should doubt myself, if I'm losing ground<br />
I won't turn to someone else<br />
They'd only let me down<br />
When I wanted you to share my life<br />
I had no doubt in my mind<br />
And it's been you woman<br />
