I like to dream, yes yes
Right between my sound machine On a cloud a-sound I drift into the night Any place it goes is right Goes far, flies near To the stars away from here Well, you don´t know what-uh we can find Why don´t cha come with me little girl On a magic carpet ride You don´t know what we can see Why don´t cha tell your dreams to me Fantasy will set you free Close your eyes girl Look inside girl Let the sound take you away (Instrumental) Last night I held Aladdin´s lamp And so I wished that I could stay Before the thing could answer me Well someone came and took the lamp away I looked... around.. A lousey candle was all I found Well you don´t know what-uh we can find Why don´t cha come with me little girl On a magic carpet ride Well, you don´t know what We can see Why don´t you tell your dreams to me Fantasy will set you free Close your eyes girl Look inside girl Let the sound take you away (Instrumental) You don´t know what-uh we can find Why don´t you come with me little girl On a magic carpet ride FADES- Well, you don´t know what-uh we can see Why don´t you tell your dreams to me Fantasy will set you free.. |

She asked me maybe I would share her sorrow About the men that tried to treat her wrong Though just a baby A waiting her tomorrow It's rock me baby, rock me baby All night long She needs an answer to her confusion someone to guide her with tenderness But if she's asking for a solution All that she gets You know it's something like this Don't know where we come from Don't know where we're going to But if all of this should have a reason We would be the last to know So let's just hope there is a promised land Hang on till then as best you can Everybody's ills you know it Fills her with compassion That's why she tries To save the world alone She helps the needy in her own fashion And tries to give them all her own Rock me baby, rock me baby All night long |

She's all alone, just lost another one Met him yesterday and he's already gone And though tonight she'll swear it was the last time A smiling face will come that knows the right line And then she'll do all the right things with the wrong guy And when he's gone, next day she'll sit and wonder why She doesn't know why she's everybody's next one 'Cause she's afraid that the truth is gonna hurt some All the pity in the world ain't gonna help none She has to realize that to keep one, her ways have to change some She tries too hard and she comes on too strong Digs herself too much and thinks she can't be wrong She's too impressed by things that do not matter To be the Queen of hearts is what she's after. And then she'll do all the right things with the wrong guy And when he's gone, next day she'll sit and wonder why She doesn't know why she's everybody's next one 'Cause she's afraid that the truth is gonna hurt some All the pity in the world ain't gonna help none She has to realize that to keep one, her ways have to change some |

Well thinking of my schooldays,I remember Maybeline
Used to dance with her all night she was little sweet sixteen Her brother used to chase me He thought I did, but I never could I used to call him Little Queenie His name was Johnny B. Good I used to hold 'till I was older Then I got bolder Her brother used to scold her I left there in the mornin' Went back to Memphis, Tennessee You know her brother never found me And that's all right with me. I went to New York City to find what could be found Just for kicks down sixty-six, stopped in L.A. Town Yes I went to California just to see what I could see Well nobody knew just where I was And that's all right with me You know I met a girl named Carol And her girlfriend sweet Nadine Played rock n' roll music Used to kiss me in between Roll over Beethoven that happened to be her favorite song But we never did much rollin' I didn't stay there long I used to hold her and try to mold her Somebody told her, Nadine and I were bolder I left there in the mornin' Went back to Memphis, Tennessee You know I never saw her face again And that's all right with me I used to hold her and try to mold her Somebody told her, Nadine and I were bolder I left there in the mornin' Went back to Memphis, Tennessee You know I never saw her face again And that's all right with me |

And drag you to the factory To train your brain for eighteen years With promise of security But then you're free And forty years you waste to chase the dollar sign So you may die in Florida At the pleasant age of sixty nine The water's getting hard to drink We've mangled up the country side The air will choke you when you breathe We're all committing suicide But it's alright It's progress folks keep pushin' till your body rots Will strip the earth of all it's green And then divide her into parking lots But there's nothing you and I can do You and I are only two What's right and wrong is hard to say Forget about it for today We'll stick our heads into the sand Just pretend that all is grand Then hope that everything turns out ok You're free to speak your mind my friend As long as you agree with me Don't criticize the father land Or those who shape your destiny 'Cause if you do You'll lose your job your mind and all the friends you knew We'll send out all our boys in blue They'll find a way to silence you But there's nothing you and I can do You and I are only two What's right and wrong is hard to say Forget about it for today We'll stick our heads into the sand Just pretend that all is grand Then hope that everything turns out ok |

Oh my, did you do something wrong? You got messed up while sitting on the throne. (Chorus) Dear ladies won't you turn a new page, We saw your daughter's burning the stage.

Once the religious, the hunted and weary
Chasing the promise of freedom and hope Came to this country to build a new vision Far from the reaches of kingdom and pope Like good Christians, some would burn the witches Later some got slaves to gather riches But still from near and far to seek America They came by thousands to court the wild And she just patiently smiled and bore a child To be their spirit and guiding light And once the ties with the crown had been broken Westward in saddle and wagon it went And 'til the railroad linked ocean to ocean Many the lives which had come to an end While we bullied, stole and bought our a homeland We began the slaughter of the red man But still from near and far to seek America They came by thousands to court the wild And she just patiently smiled and bore a child To be their spirit and guiding light The blue and grey they stomped it They kicked it just like a dog And when the war over They stuffed it just like a hog And though the past has it's share of injustice Kind was the spirit in many a way But it's protectors and friends have been sleeping Now it's a monster and will not obey (Suicide) The spirit was freedom and justice And it's keepers seem generous and kind It's leaders were supposed to serve the country But now they won't pay it no mind 'Cause the people grew fat and got lazy And now their vote is a meaningless joke They babble about law and order But it's all just an echo of what they've been told Yeah, there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watchin' Our cities have turned into jungles And corruption is stranglin' the land The police force is watching the people And the people just can't understand We don't know how to mind our own business 'Cause the whole worlds got to be just like us Now we are fighting a war over there No matter who's the winner We can't pay the cost 'Cause there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watching (America) America where are you now? Don't you care about your sons and daughters? Don't you know we need you now We can't fight alone against the monster ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By KAY, JOHN EDMONTON, JERRY <i>Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

He was talkin' 'bout the army while he passed his pipe around
An American deserter who found peace on Swedish ground He had joined to seek adventure and to prove himself a man But they tried to crush his spirit 'til his conscience ruined their plan And we thought of those who suffer for the sake of honesty All those who refuse to follow traitors to humanity Here's to all the draft resisters who will fight for sanity When they march 'em off to prison in this land of liberty Heed the threat and awesome power of the mighty Pentagon Which is wasting precious millions on the toys of Washington Don't forget the draft resisters and their silent lonely plea When they march 'em off to prison, they will go for you and me Shame, disgrace and all dishonor, wrongly placed upon their heads Will not rob them of the courage which betrays the innocent |

To stand there and tell me what to do Tell me who gave you the power To stop me from livin' like I do Remember if you plan to stay Those who give can take away. Don't bite the hand that feeds you Just one time I'd like to be somewhere where None of your clever lies fill the air I'm tired of your frozen smile and voice of tin Just might all gang up on you Turn the knob and do you in Remember if you plan to stay Those who give can take away. Don't bite the hand that feeds you This never ending power play 'Tween Jealousy, greed and vicious hate Is grinding us like giant millstones But it can't be our only fate It's time we got our heads together And let 'em know that we're awake Those in the dark, you know they're no longer blind They're breakin' from your strangle hold on their minds Those who can see don't need no one to cross the street Be careful who you're pushin' round They just might find you obsolete Remember if you plan to stay Those who give can take away.

Too much confusion and no solution Everyone here knows your fear You're out of touch and you try too much Yesterday's glory won't help us today You wanna retire? Get out of the way The country needs a father Not an uncle or big brother Someone to keep the peace at home If we can't get together Look out for stormy weather Don't make me pay for your mistakes I have to pay my own Yesterday's glory won't help us today You wanna retire? Get out of the way I ain't got much time The young ones close behind I can't wait in line If we can not wake you Then we'll have to shake you Though some say you'll only understand a gun Got to prove them wrong Or you will lose the battle Don't you know we'll start a war Which will be won by none Yesterday's glory won't help us today You wanna retire?

You've filled his house with things of gold
While handing crumbs to the old and poor And then you preach about being pure And wonder why we're laughing In your old way you're trying to find us But we can't follow what's behind us Too much blind faith, it will blind us Though sometimes it's a blessing But I remember when I still embraced you A little prayer would ease my mind 'Til I saw that you hide from the misery outside so I left you behind But all the other teachings That I've tried were 'bout the same One grain of truth mixed with confusion caused by man But since you're around anyway May as well get you back on your feet again Get right back up on your feet Don't ya know we need somebody to Do some work down in the street You might just touch somebody Start to think about today Throw your robe and staff away And break away from yesterday Ah, tell me can we reach you I don't know, still we got to go From here to there eventually While others die up against the wall You take the time to tell us all 'Bout how we're not supposed to ball You really are a riot It's got nothin' to do with heaven or hell What I do in bed, I'm not gonna tell What I'm talking about you know damn well You really ought to try it |

Of it's doubtful state of mind So it summoned from far and called from near All the wise men thought to be sincere To heal it's wounds and make it whole And the lead the way back to the soul The charlatans they stayed behind To count their bags of gold And some stayed away as if to say I know that my way's the only way Afraid to learn they may be wrong They preach their nothingness at home But the wise men came together with the hope to free man kind Of the rubbish that had gathered in god's name To embrace and trust each other in the search for the supreme And they found that all their teachings were the same And when at last the word went round That all were one and all Many returned to seek the light Nobody claimed that he was right It's sad to know it's just a song To dream and hope still can't be wrong |

They?re talkin', talkin? about Molly
She?s cryin', isn?t it funny I turned her without any money She?s 28 years old tonight I told her not to fear, it?s all very right She listened and came to my side Then whispered she wanted to ride She slowed down right with the tide She told me she?s wormin? her knees I touched her, she?s started to breathe She opened and let in the breeze She?s 28 years old tonight I told her not to fear It?s all very night Silk on silk Feather and light Make the black out of the night Silk on silk Feather and light Make the black out of the night She?s 28 years old tonight I told her not to fear It?s all very night They?re talkin?, talkin? about Molly She?s cryin', isn?t it funny I turned her without any money Next morning, two nights after She woke up, grinning with laughter I kissed her, she came at me faster She?s 28 years old tonight I told her not to fear It?s all very night Silk on silk Feather and light Make the black out of the white Silk on silk Feather and light Make the black out of the white Repeat? |

I like to dream
Yes, yes right between the sound machine On a cloud of sight I drift in the night Any place it goes is right Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here Well, you don't know what we could find Why don't you come with me little girl on a magic carpet ride? Well you don't know what we could see Why don't you tell your dreams to me?, fantasy will set you free. Last night I held Aladdin's lamp, so I wished that I could stay. Before the thing could answer me well someone took, Took the lamp away I looked around a lousy can was all I found. Close your eyes girl, look inside girl, let the Sound take you away |

Words and music by John Kay
So, once again I hurt someone Because I found out that she's not the one I'm looking for So, once again I blame someone Because I know that she can't use the love I have in store And now she's gone And I'm glad her story ends Still I wish I had been kinder We could have parted just like friends So, one more time I've played, lost the game Another face in the past, without a name Back in the night to find a light And hoping this time I'll be right I know you don't know me But I need your company Don't wanna be alone tonight You can trust me girl You'll be alright Looked at me with big brown eyes She said "yes" to my surprise And now I call her in the morning And I see her every night I see her in the evening And when I'm with her, I'm alright Copyright MCA Music (BMI) All rights for the USA controlled and administered by MCA Corporation of America, INC |

Rise to greet the morning light
Can't find my shoes But that's alright All I knew just flew out the window All I had gathered Won't let my mind grow I don't know but I feel lighter Everything around me Seems much brighter Red and green, in between Think I'm going crazy Everybody movin' much too slow 'Cause all I want is to be near you All I need is your sweet love I don't know which way to go You've changed the world around me Don't let go, I can't get enough Night time just dropped by Back to hide the ugly for a while When the lights go on, we go out Down to a place where the music's loud Shake your money maker Shake it all around Shake your money maker Why don't you let it all hang down Shake your money maker Shake it just for me Shake your money maker Why don't you let yourself be free Every time I see her dancing Makes me want to jump with joy The way she moves makes my heart break Just one look and I'm her toy Don't know why she makes me feel Like a different guy Shake it Take it Shake it Take it Purple sound baby, can you feel it Swirlin' 'round, I don't know Scream out loud baby Let your mind roll off the ground You might never feel this way again |

She's all alone, just lost another one
Met him yesterday and he's already gone And though tonight she'll swear it was the last time A smiling face will come that knows the right line And then she'll do all the right things with the wrong guy And when he's gone, next day she'll sit and wonder why She doesn't know why she's everybody's next one 'Cause she's afraid that the truth is gonna hurt some All the pity in the world ain't gonna help none She has to realize that to keep one, her ways have to change some She tries too hard and she comes on too strong Digs herself too much and thinks she can't be wrong She's too impressed by things that do not matter To be the Queen of hearts is what she's after. And then she'll do all the right things with the wrong guy And when he's gone, next day she'll sit and wonder why She doesn't know why she's everybody's next one 'Cause she's afraid that the truth is gonna hurt some All the pity in the world ain't gonna help none She has to realize that to keep one, her ways have to change some |

Your wall's too high, I can't see
Can't seem to reach you, can't set you free If you can hear me, follow the sound And help me tear your wall down to the ground Everyone gets hurt sometimes Everybody plays the game If you don't win the first time Come back and try again Rocks and bricks can't help you You can't hide behind your wall Why don't you try to jump it little girl I'll catch you if you fall Ah, sometimes early in the mornin' Without warnin' you'll realize That you ain't too wise With your head bowed down you go downtown Watch an old lady hit the ground Lots of people standin' round But nobody seems to know her You're an hour late when you reach your floor Ah, and everybody tells you That your boss is sore Watch the clock for seven more Then go flyin' through the door Back home again the day is gone You're safe and sound but still alone And when the night falls around your walls Ah, tell me don't you ever wish to go outside Follow the lights and go outside You'll be alright, just go outside |

Ah, do you ever think it's useless Do you feel like letting go Do you ever sit and do you wonder Will the world ever change And just how long will it take To have it all rearranged Tell me why these things are still the same Tell me why no one can seem to learn from mistakes Take my hand if you don't know where your goin' I'll understand, I've lost the way myself Oh, don't take that old road it leads to nowhere We must return before the clock strikes twelve It's so easy to do nothin' When you're busy night and day Take a step in one direction And take a step the other way So don't stop tryin' when you stumble Don't give up should you fall Keep on searchin' for the passway That will lead you through the wall Don't look back or you'll be left behind Don't look back or you will never find peace of mind |

We'll call you when you're six years old
And drag you to the factory To train your brain for eighteen years With promise of security But then you're free And forty years you waste to chase the dollar sign So you may die in Florida At the pleasant age of sixty nine The water's getting hard to drink We've mangled up the country side The air will choke you when you breathe We're all committing suicide But it's alright It's progress folks keep pushin' till your body rots Will strip the earth of all it's green And then divide her into parking lots But there's nothing you and I can do You and I are only two What's right and wrong is hard to say Forget about it for today We'll stick our heads into the sand Just pretend that all is grand Then hope that everything turns out ok You're free to speak your mind my friend As long as you agree with me Don't criticize the father land Or those who shape your destiny 'Cause if you do You'll lose your job your mind and all the friends you knew We'll send out all our boys in blue They'll find a way to silence you But there's nothing you and I can do You and I are only two What's right and wrong is hard to say Forget about it for today We'll stick our heads into the sand Just pretend that all is grand Then hope that everything turns out ok |

As though you were a man possessed From deep inside comes rushing forth All the anguish you suppressed Up on your wall hangs your degree Your parents craved so much for you And though you're trained to make your mark You still don't quite know what to do It's never too late to start all over again To love the people you caused the pain And help them learn your name Oh, no, not too late It's never too late to start all over again Well, it's much to late to start again To try and find a little bliss So on your woman and your child You release your bitterness You drift apart some more each day You feel the guilt and loneliness And the God of your childhood you can't find To save you from your emptiness It's never too late to start all over again To love the people you caused the pain And help them learn your name Oh, no, not too late It's never too late to start all over again You say you've only got one life to live And when your dead your gone Your family comes to your grave And with tears in their eyes They tell you, you did something wrong "You left us alone" Tell me who's to say after all is done And you're finally gone, you won't be back again You can find a way to change today You don't have to wait 'til then |

Once the religious, the hunted and weary
Chasing the promise of freedom and hope Came to this country to build a new vision Far from the reaches of kingdom and pope Like good Christians, some would burn the witches Later some got slaves to gather riches But still from near and far to seek America They came by thousands to court the wild And she just patiently smiled and bore a child To be their spirit and guiding light And once the ties with the crown had been broken Westward in saddle and wagon it went And 'til the railroad linked ocean to ocean Many the lives which had come to an end While we bullied, stole and bought our a homeland We began the slaughter of the red man But still from near and far to seek America They came by thousands to court the wild And she just patiently smiled and bore a child To be their spirit and guiding light The blue and grey they stomped it They kicked it just like a dog And when the war over They stuffed it just like a hog And though the past has it's share of injustice Kind was the spirit in many a way But it's protectors and friends have been sleeping Now it's a monster and will not obey (Suicide) The spirit was freedom and justice And it's keepers seem generous and kind It's leaders were supposed to serve the country But now they won't pay it no mind 'Cause the people grew fat and got lazy And now their vote is a meaningless joke They babble about law and order But it's all just an echo of what they've been told Yeah, there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watchin' Our cities have turned into jungles And corruption is stranglin' the land The police force is watching the people And the people just can't understand We don't know how to mind our own business 'Cause the whole worlds got to be just like us Now we are fighting a war over there No matter who's the winner We can't pay the cost 'Cause there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watching (America) America where are you now? Don't you care about your sons and daughters? Don't you know we need you now We can't fight alone against the monster ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By KAY, JOHN EDMONTON, JERRY <i>Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

Things look bad from over here
Too much confusion and no solution Everyone here knows your fear You're out of touch and you try too much Yesterday's glory won't help us today You wanna retire? Get out of the way The country needs a father Not an uncle or big brother Someone to keep the peace at home If we can't get together Look out for stormy weather Don't make me pay for your mistakes I have to pay my own Yesterday's glory won't help us today You wanna retire? Get out of the way I ain't got much time The young ones close behind I can't wait in line If we can not wake you Then we'll have to shake you Though some say you'll only understand a gun Got to prove them wrong Or you will lose the battle Don't you know we'll start a war Which will be won by none Yesterday's glory won't help us today You wanna retire? Get out of the way I ain't got much time The young ones close behind I can't wait in line Move over Come on, Move Over |

You say it was this morning when you last saw your good friend
Lyin' on the pavement with a misery on his brain Stoned on some new potion he found upon the wall Of some unholy bathroom in some ungodly hall He only had a dollar to live on 'til next Monday But he spent it on some comfort for his mind Did you say you think he's blind? Someone should call his parents, a sister or a brother And they'll come to take him back home on a bus But he'll always be a problem to his poor and puzzled mother Yeah he'll always be another one of us He said he wanted Heaven but prayin' was too slow So he bought a one way ticket on an airline made of snow Did you say you saw your good friend flyin' low?

What you say to drive that girl away
When she's the one and only? Who's the one that you been leanin' on Ev'ry time that you were down and lonely? How many times did you say to yourself that woman is the devil's tool? Somehow you knew that you blew it again and didn't wanna look like a ravin fool But when you need affection You go to her with a smilin' face But now she's got a strange reaction For ladies only Tired of talkin' 'till somebody hears For ladies only Half the world has been built upon their tears If you've been contemplatin' just what you're doin' wrong Then you will be a witness to the rumble goin' on You fight it hard to tell apart the truth from the jive They've got a right to say it wrong if freedom's to survive Now if you don't believe your own reflection Just take a look at all your smooth talkin' friends I'm sure you'll make the right connection I'll give you my donation to help the cause along I'll make my contribution 'till the fight has been won But when my bedroom closes one thing remains Man, woman, hog or dog, I'm callin' the plays And if you find the need to raise objections Don't talk to me 'bout your wasted time You know you made your own selections |

How ya gonna make it baby?
That's the question to be asked Life goes on around you In so many different ways I know my share of history How hard it is to be free From wearing masks that turn to skin Hiding what you could have been And I, I'm so confused Which way, which way to choose? Ride with me baby 'til the end of the day Mama's home philosophy Makes everyone a freak but me Though I'm starvin' in the streets And can't predict the future Mirror, mirror on the wall Who's the sanest of us all? Is he with me or one of them? How does he dress, who are his friends? And I, I'm so confused Which way, which way to choose? Ride with me baby 'til the end of the day Mama's home philosophy Makes everyone a freak but me Though I'm starvin' in the streets And can't predict the future Can I have my vision back? I'll live outside your city walls You don't have to be afraid Until I come together |

Drop down Mama let your boss man see
If you can howl just like a dog for me Black leather is my favorite game And you will learn how to scream my name Look here girl, rest your gums I'm gonna do like your daddy done Now let me see you Baby, rockin' soft and slow Hey! If you don't believe I'll follow you down girl You've got to go Don't ya squeeze me Baby, or you will earn your stripes And you better not be a ball crusher If you don't know how to pay the price Now if you really want to taste a joy supreme You should stay and meet the team The vulture and his plastic straw Make you want to dance and shout for more Come on Baby let me show you 'round the room And give you time to holler Any time you can sling it around We can surely raise a dollar |

Forty days and forty nights
Since my baby done left this town Oh the sun shinin' all day long But the rain it just keeps on comin' down She's my life I need her so Why she left I just don't know Forty days and forty nights Since I sat right down and cried It keeps on rainin' all the time But the river is runnin' dry Lord help me it just ain't right I love that girl with all my might Forty days and forty nights Since my baby done broke my heart I've been searchin' for her everywhere Just like a blind man in the dark Love can make a poor man rich Or break his heart, I don't know which Forty days and forty nights Like a ship out on the stormy sea I've been prayin' for her every night That she would come back home to me Life is love and love is light I hope she comes back home tonight |

Rolly poly fat man
Thunder down the hall On your way to breakfast You got to have it all A plate of cold spaghetti One day on the floor Clean your chops and take time To contemplate your stall Every morning, pass by the mirror Chuckle at your smiling face "So good to see you??you're looking good" Good to see you Now you're on your way Flag a cab to getchell "Hey boy, guv'nah way! Hey now, where you headed? The albert's on your right" Fat jack where are you going? I can see you walking down the road Fat jack where are you going? I can't understand how you tote your own load Rolly poly fat man Spin your swivel chair Next time 'round you'll catch up If business war is fair 5 o'clock is closing Give yourself a raise Didn't get no business But you made my whole day Every morning, pass by the mirror Chuckle at your smiling face Every morning, pass by the mirror Strapped in a self embrace "So good to see you??you're looking good" Good to see you Now you're on your way Hey jack, fat jack where you goin'? |

My birthplace would be hard to find
It changed so many times I'm not sure where it belongs But they tell me the Baltic coast is full of amber And the land was green Before the tanks came One day I learned just how it used to be The devils' curse brought the whole world to it's knees And it was "Hey you, keep your head down Don't look around, please don't make a sound If they should find you now The Man will shoot you down" It's a mighty long way out of the darkness To where the sun is free to shine Oh! The truck came by to put us in the back And left us where the railroad tracks cross the line Then the border guide took us by the hand And led us thru the hole into the promise land beyond And I can hear him now Whispering soft and low "When you get to the other side Just run like hell" I thought I had a quiet place Where I could learn how to catch my childhood dreams But on my left and to my right they keep on shouting While I'm just stuck here in between Lord! I'm tried of running and I don't believe I can I can hear them calling time and time again And it's "Hey you, keep your head down Don't look around, please, don't make a sound If they should find you now The Man will shoot you down" |

Hear me holler down the mountain side
I'm near the sky blinking at the evil eye Hear me holler at the city's grind It stole my soul just about lost my mind Let the loneliness roll in Like the foggy mountain dew Wipe the madness from my eye 'Till my anger slowly dies When the shadow play begins I'll be watching thru the night 'Till I find myself again Hear me holler cross the sea of light It took my dream and smashed it 'gainst the night Hear me holler at the town below Got nothing left to make me stay and no place left to go Let the loneliness roll in Like the foggy mountain dew Wipe the madness from my eye 'Till my anger slowly dies When the shadow play begins I'll be watching thru the night 'Till I find myself again |

You say it was this morning when you last saw your good friend
Lyin' on the pavement with a misery on his brain Stoned on some new potion he found upon the wall Of some unholy bathroom in some ungodly hall He only had a dollar to live on 'til next Monday But he spent it on some comfort for his mind Did you say you think he's blind? Someone should call his parents, a sister or a brother And they'll come to take him back home on a bus But he'll always be a problem to his poor and puzzled mother Yeah he'll always be another one of us He said he wanted Heaven but prayin' was too slow So he bought a one way ticket on an airline made of snow Did you say you saw your good friend flyin' low? Flyin' low Dyin' slow |

Well, it's sunrise on the freeway as I get back from town
Find you standin' in my boots, kicking my dog around Empty bottles on the floor Enough to build a monument Then you've got the nerve to tell me Somebody took the rent Who needs ya? Think about it baby, who needs you? Now you can save your lip, just pack your grip And leave a trail of smoke behind you Who needs ya? Can you tell me baby, who needs you? Who needs you? Think about it baby Who needs you? Can you tell me please? Last week you pulled another of your tricks You let your brother move in here with a heard of freaks They ate us out of house and home Turned this place into a sty Darlin' by tomrrow you'll be eatin' humble pie Repeat chorus |

If I should go astray and say "I lost my way" nobody would know me
But if I don't believe I can and still say "Hear my plan" Somebody would follow just because it's free We're all Hippos rollin' down the river Sometimes we can't touch the ground Like Hippos slidin' in the water Somehow we're stompin' around If you should go astray and say "I lost my way" nobody will know you But if you don't believe you can and still say "I'm your man" Somebody will follow just because it's free We're all Hippos rollin' down the river Sometimes we can't touch the ground Like Hippos slindin' in the water Somehow we're stompin' around Now you can see me lyin' down in my swamp Any time I feel disgusted You'll see me do the hippo stomp You stop and watch me while you're out on your midnite romp And I can feel the silent question What the heck is the Hippo Stomp? Hey! Hey! You should try it when you're feelin' blue Let me answer you and let me tell ya true Just how I feel when I'm down Sometimes I wonder You'll see me stumblin' around But you just point and stare Come on let me hear ya Somewhere there's a voice down inside And when you find it let it teach you how to ask the question "why" Just because we live together We don't have to like each other So please don't fall asleep on me again Nobody, nobody, nobody knows for sure You just might never wake up from the dream Hey! Speak up let me hear ya Let me show you 'round the reservation I know my way around these parts I've lived here long enough Now you can have a taste, an indication Of things and times to come Early in the morning, late at night Somebody seems to know just how this thing work's right 'Cause every time I come around the corner somebody's looking out my door He's been snoopin' like a hound I'll grab his neck and shake him on down Now you can see me lyin' down in my swamp Any time I feel disgusted You'll see me do the Hippo Stomp |

Once the religious, the hunted and weary
Chasing the promise of freedom and hope Came to this country to build a new vision Far from the reaches of kingdom and pope Like good Christians, some would burn the witches Later some got slaves to gather riches But still from near and far to seek America They came by thousands to court the wild And she just patiently smiled and bore a child To be their spirit and guiding light And once the ties with the crown had been broken Westward in saddle and wagon it went And 'til the railroad linked ocean to ocean Many the lives which had come to an end While we bullied, stole and bought our a homeland We began the slaughter of the red man But still from near and far to seek America They came by thousands to court the wild And she just patiently smiled and bore a child To be their spirit and guiding light The blue and grey they stomped it They kicked it just like a dog And when the war over They stuffed it just like a hog And though the past has it's share of injustice Kind was the spirit in many a way But it's protectors and friends have been sleeping Now it's a monster and will not obey (Suicide) The spirit was freedom and justice And it's keepers seem generous and kind It's leaders were supposed to serve the country But now they won't pay it no mind 'Cause the people grew fat and got lazy And now their vote is a meaningless joke They babble about law and order But it's all just an echo of what they've been told Yeah, there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watchin' Our cities have turned into jungles And corruption is stranglin' the land The police force is watching the people And the people just can't understand We don't know how to mind our own business 'Cause the whole worlds got to be just like us Now we are fighting a war over there No matter who's the winner We can't pay the cost 'Cause there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watching (America) America where are you now? Don't you care about your sons and daughters? Don't you know we need you now We can't fight alone against the monster |

He was talkin' 'bout the army while he passed his pipe around
An American deserter who found peace on Swedish ground He had joined to seek adventure and to prove himself a man But they tried to crush his spirit 'til his conscience ruined their plan And we thought of those who suffer for the sake of honesty All those who refuse to follow traitors to humanity Here's to all the draft resisters who will fight for sanity When they march 'em off to prison in this land of liberty Heed the threat and awesome power of the mighty Pentagon Which is wasting precious millions on the toys of Washington Don't forget the draft resisters and their silent lonely plea When they march 'em off to prison, they will go for you and me Shame, disgrace and all dishonor, wrongly placed upon their heads Will not rob them of the courage which betrays the innocent |

What gives you the right hey you
To stand there and tell me what to do Tell me who gave you the power To stop me from livin' like I do Remember if you plan to stay Those who give can take away. Don't bite the hand that feeds you Just one time I'd like to be somewhere where None of your clever lies fill the air I'm tired of your frozen smile and voice of tin Just might all gang up on you Turn the knob and do you in Remember if you plan to stay Those who give can take away. Don't bite the hand that feeds you This never ending power play 'Tween Jealousy, greed and vicious hate Is grinding us like giant millstones But it can't be our only fate It's time we got our heads together And let 'em know that we're awake Those in the dark, you know they're no longer blind They're breakin' from your strangle hold on their minds Those who can see don't need no one to cross the street Be careful who you're pushin' round They just might find you obsolete Remember if you plan to stay Those who give can take away.

At six a.m. this morning, oh the man knocked at my door
I screamed in his ear, I'm not the guy you're looking for But got taken, I got taken just the same When it comes to getting sleep at night Oh I just can't seem to win I went down to the zoo where I thought I might hide There I met a friendly grizzly bear, who took me for a ride And I got mangled, oh I got pushed all out of shape When it comes to being sociable Oh I just can't seem to win While climbing up Mt. Everest to get away from all the noise I slipped on a banana peel and almost got destroyed And I was worried all the way down to the ground When it comes to holding safety nets Nobody seems to be around When I put myself together I found that it was best If I no longer tried to be just like all the rest Because I'm twisted, yeah but that's the bag I'm in When it comes to being normal Oh I just can't seem to win |

You've filled his house with things of gold
While handing crumbs to the old and poor And then you preach about being pure And wonder why we're laughing In your old way you're trying to find us But we can't follow what's behind us Too much blind faith, it will blind us Though sometimes it's a blessing But I remember when I still embraced you A little prayer would ease my mind 'Til I saw that you hide from the misery outside so I left you behind But all the other teachings That I've tried were 'bout the same One grain of truth mixed with confusion caused by man But since you're around anyway May as well get you back on your feet again Get right back up on your feet Don't ya know we need somebody to Do some work down in the street You might just touch somebody Start to think about today Throw your robe and staff away And break away from yesterday Ah, tell me can we reach you I don't know, still we got to go From here to there eventually While others die up against the wall You take the time to tell us all 'Bout how we're not supposed to ball You really are a riot It's got nothin' to do with heaven or hell What I do in bed, I'm not gonna tell What I'm talking about you know damn well You really ought to try it |

Chasing the promise of freedom and hope Came to this country to build a new vision Far from the reaches of kingdom and pope Like good Christians, some would burn the witches Later some got slaves to gather riches But still from near and far to seek America They came by thousands to court the wild And she just patiently smiled and bore a child To be their spirit and guiding light And once the ties with the crown had been broken Westward in saddle and wagon it went And 'til the railroad linked ocean to ocean Many the lives which had come to an end While we bullied, stole and bought our a homeland We began the slaughter of the red man But still from near and far to seek America They came by thousands to court the wild And she just patiently smiled and bore a child To be their spirit and guiding light The blue and grey they stomped it They kicked it just like a dog And when the war over They stuffed it just like a hog And though the past has it's share of injustice Kind was the spirit in many a way But it's protectors and friends have been sleeping Now it's a monster and will not obey (Suicide) The spirit was freedom and justice And it's keepers seem generous and kind It's leaders were supposed to serve the country But now they won't pay it no mind 'Cause the people grew fat and got lazy And now their vote is a meaningless joke They babble about law and order But it's all just an echo of what they've been told Yeah, there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watchin' Our cities have turned into jungles And corruption is stranglin' the land The police force is watching the people And the people just can't understand We don't know how to mind our own business 'Cause the whole worlds got to be just like us Now we are fighting a war over there No matter who's the winner We can't pay the cost 'Cause there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watching (America) America where are you now? Don't you care about your sons and daughters? Don't you know we need you now We can't fight alone against the monster |

from Steppenwolf - Silver (2000)
Things look bad from over here
Too much confusion and no solution Everyone here knows your fear You're out of touch and you try too much Yesterday's glory won't help us today You wanna retire? Get out of the way The country needs a father Not an uncle or big brother Someone to keep the peace at home If we can't get together Look out for stormy weather Don't make me pay for your mistakes I have to pay my own Yesterday's glory won't help us today You wanna retire? Get out of the way I ain't got much time The young ones close behind I can't wait in line If we can not wake you Then we'll have to shake you Though some say you'll only understand a gun Got to prove them wrong Or you will lose the battle Don't you know we'll start a war Which will be won by none Yesterday's glory won't help us today You wanna retire? Get out of the way I ain't got much time The young ones close behind I can't wait in line Move over Come on, Move Over |
