The Best of What's Around lyrics

Best of What's Around

Hey, my friend
It seems your eyes are troubled
Care to share your time with me
Would you say you're feeling low and so
A good idea would be to get it off of your mind

See, you and me
Have a better time than most can dream
Have it better than the best
And so can pull on through
Whatever tears at us
Whatever holds us down
And if nothing can be done

What Would You Say lyrics

What Would You Say

Up and down the puppies' hair
Fleas and ticks jump everywhere
'Cause of original sin

Down the hill fell Jack and Jill
And you came tumbling after
'Cause of original sin

Rip away the tears
Drink a hope for happy years
And you may find
A lifetime's passed you by

What would you say
Don't drop the big one
If you a monkey on a string
Don't cut my life line

Satellite lyrics

Satellite

Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder.
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping tom for the mother station

Winter's cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down all around, hey satellite

Satellite, headlines read
Someone's secrets you've seen

Rhyme & Reason lyrics

Oh well oh well so here we stand
But we stand for nothing
My heart calls to me in my sleep
Now can I turn to it
Cause I'm all locked up in this
Dark place -- and I do not know
I'm as good as dead
My head aches -- warped and tied up
I need to kill this pain

My head won't leave my head alone
And I don't believe it will
'Til I'm dead and gone
My head won't leave my head alone

Typical Situation lyrics

Typical Situation

Ten fingers we have each
Nine planets around the sun repeat
Eight ball is the last if you triumphant be
Seven oceans pummel the shores of the sea

It's a typical situation
In these typical times
Too many choices

Everybody's happy
Everybody's free
We'll keep the big door open
And everyone'll come around
Why are you different
Why are you that way

Dancing Nancies lyrics

Don't you ever wonder,
Maybe if things had been slightly different
You could be somebody else
Don't you wonder, maybe...
If you took a left turn instead of taking a right, You could be somebody different
Don't you ever wonder... Could I have been...?
Don't you ever wonder, anyone, anyone?
Don't you ever wonder, Well, God, could I have been...?
Don't you ever wonder, anyone, anyone?

Ants Marching lyrics

Ants Marching

He wakes up in the morning
Does his teeth, bite to eat and he's rolling
Never changes a thing
The week ends, the week begins

She thinks, we look at each other
Wondering what the other is thinking
But we never say a thing
And these crimes between us grow deeper

Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die

Goes to visit his mommy

Lover Lay Down lyrics

Lover Lay Down

Spring sweet rhythm dance in my head
Slip into my lover's hands
Kiss me oh won't you kiss me now
And sleep I would inside your mouth

Don't be us too shy
Knowing it's no big surprise
That I will wait for you
I will wait for no one but you

Look please lover lay down
Spend this time with me
Together share this smile
Lover lay down

Walk with me, walk with you

Jimi Thing lyrics

You've got your ball
you've got your chain
Tied to me tight tie me up again
Who's got their claws
in you my friend
Into your heart I'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul
Sweet you rock
and sweet you roll
Lost for you I'm so lost for you
You come crash into me
And i come into you,
I come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream

Touch your lips just so i know
In your eyes, love, it glows so

Warehouse lyrics

Warehouse

So I'm leaving...
This Warehouse frightens me.
Has me tied up in knots,
Can't Rest For A Moment.

Soon I'm Going...
I'm slipping slow away
Hoping to find something better than
I've got inside here
And the Warehouse slips away...

Hey reckless mind
Don't throw away your playful beggining
You and I will fumble around in the touches
And be sure to...

Pay for What You Get lyrics

Pay For What You Get

Work ourselves, fingers to the bone
Suck the marrow, drain my soul
Fingers to the bone
Pay your dues, and your debts
Pay your respects, everybody tells you
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get

Everybody asks me how she's doin'
Has she really lost her mind?
I said, I couldn't tell you
I've lost mine

Words, words, words, have you heard

#34 lyrics

Oh my head lay back on the seating
Been so tired throw away my surrounding
Like the sun and moon take for granted
Soon we move through the flood and we fade away
Lie about it
Cry about it
We'll be ok
Lean upon me
I'll lean upon you
We'll be ok
Oh I lay myself at your feet laughing
Hope mine eye made of the soul choir
Lean upon me
I'll lean upon you
We'll be ok
Lie about it

Jimi Thing (Under The Table & Dreaming Version) lyrics

Lately I've been feeling low

A remedy is what I'm seeking

I take a taste of what's below

Come away to something better

What I want is what I've not got
And what I need

Is all around me

Reaching searching never stop

And I'll say...

If you could keep me floating

Just for a while

Till I get to the end of this tunnel Mommy

If you could keep me floating

Just for a while

Warehouse (Lalc Version) lyrics

Hey reckless mind
Don't throw away your playful beginning
You and I let us fumble around in the touches
And be sure to

Leave all the lights on
So I can see the black cat changing colors
And walk under ladders
And travel my eyes over you
Hey we have found
Becoming one in a million Slip into the crowd
This question I found in the gap in the sidewalk

Keep all your sights on

Ants Marching (No New Directions) lyrics

He wakes up in the morning

Does his teeth bite to eat and he's rolling

Never changes a thing

The week ends the week begins

She thinks, we look at each other

Wondering what the other is thinking

But we never say a thing

These crimes between us grow deeper

Goes to visit his mommy

She feeds him well his concerns

He forgets them

And remembers being small

Love Of My Life lyrics

Where you are, thats where I wanna be
Through your eyes are all the things I wanna see
In the night you are my dream, youre everything to me

Youre the love of my life and the breath in my prayers
Take my hand and lead me there
What I need is you here

I cant forget the taste of your mouth
From your lips all the heavens pour out
I cant forget when we are one
With you alone I am free

Mother's Night lyrics

Oh, people killing people

Kings to conquer kings

Always in the seeker

Taking the light

Away from me
Death comes to the seeker

And death comes to the fool

Death comes to us all one day

Let the river of time swim over you

Oh swim over you

Oh time swim over you

Mother fighting mother

Children killing kings and kings and children too

Castles full of prisoners

Blue Water Baboon Farm lyrics

walking by a river I

reach my hands to cup the sky

run down my arms

a bitter blue
turn to red and

the gashes grow

the river taste me I am

so much more then I have ever been

oh, oh, oh, oh

take this my arms

take this my eyes

that this my mouth and all this

seems to be completely true

yeah

walking by a river I

reach my hands to cup the sky

run down my arms

Spotlight lyrics

In the spotlight life is so peachy, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Wouldnt you like to retire with a million?

A million beating hearts behind brick and cold steel piping
Fighting for the top, fighting for the room to be bench park sleepers
Like cold blanket bedless babies
Here this must stop, here I cannot stay
Big city, black city rises up around me, steal my soul away

Help Myself lyrics

oh, hungry boy

in a town of one hundred more

the food is out the door

makes me want to help myself, help my-

oh, river red
pouring from the side of his head

a bullet through the brain

make him feel different today

oh, colder grow the days

oh, much faster pass the years by

till we die

oh-oh, a treasure not my own

i take it, tuck it, nobody will notice

Heathcliff's Haiku Warriors lyrics

Heathcliff's Haiku Warriors

My head won't leave me crying
And I lay this one
She won't give me happy
As I lie here alone
My own will give you baby

Call again
Let me be the number
You lead me away again
It was anything I need to
Find my way through this sand (?)
My baby lead my head away
And calling by my head.

Boy
When you away we go
Sending me crawling back over

Get In Line lyrics

Hey

Mama took everything

See you change and leaving

Come on, come on, baby, yeah

Telling go with you
Man, he don't call back

I'm worried, worried

Take him, take my time to go

And I wonder and I'm happy well say

Yeah, I'm coming

Oh aren't, oh aren't you

Yeah, Tired

And write you, and write you

Yeah, and leave me i'll turn you away

Like a fool

Don't Burn The Pig lyrics

Don't Burn The Pig

Don't burn the pig
Throw it in the water again
See if it float or sink
Don't burn the pig

What Will Become Of Me lyrics

I'm spilling out

I'm so out of place
What will become...

What will become of us

When were all poured away

I'm spilling out, always

Overflowing out to me

What will become of us

When were all poured away

I'm spilling out all my love away

Where are we going from here

Weight Of The World lyrics

So we wrote
On precedents and angels
We build a book
We build a road out of nothing but a saying
Out of governments and police we build a book
Of how the things we know should be

So when a man comes with a difference
A woman comes with an idea
We crush it down to nothing in the fear that we will lose it
Open up the books
Iâm guilty of it, too
Just like all of us

Hold Me Up lyrics

Hold Me Up

Hold Me Up
So I can see you
Hold me down
If running's what's got into me
What cries my name
I won't set you away

Oh I'm older
Still the years give
And I'll walk into the big line
And I'll hold me
And soon I'm in the big door
And your deceit is growing big (?!?)

Oh, I know
That you rather be somewhere else
But I'm not here all alone
Trying to wish you so

Crazy lyrics

Crazy as I may

make my way

through this world

it's for no one but me to say

which direction I should turn in

Because I am the captain of this ship

eyes, eyelids, and kissing lips

the same as it was

we should be forever again

you give

but you don't know

away you give

and you

you give

to roll me back again

you give

for me again

you leave

And people say

Dreamed I Killed God lyrics

Dreamed I killed God, and woke up
Dreamed I killed God, and woke up
He's begging, "Please, please, please."
"No, don't..."

Dreamed I killed God and woke up
Time dries, time dries my mind
Oh, I'll survive, no one can save us
Talk to myself, talk to my soul

I want you to follow
Yes, follow...
It's only, it's only a dream, only

Dreamed I killed God and woke up

Reconcile Our Differences lyrics

Reconcile Our Differences

Oh my dear,
When I was dreaming,
I wish you would take your lies elsewhere
Don't give them to me.

Oh my friend,
Old as you are,
How could I trust you as far
As I could throw your brother?

As to you my love,
My precious baby,
If I die be sure that you meet me up
Where I can stay with you.

Take my flesh,
And eat it down

Digging A Ditch lyrics

Digging a Ditch

Run to your dreaming

When you're alone
Unplug the TV

And turn off your phone

Get heavy on with digging your ditch

Cause I'm digging a ditch where madness gives a bit

Digging a ditch where silence lives

Digging a ditch for when I'm old

Digging this ditch my story's told

Where all these troubles

That weigh down on me will rise

Unto your dreaming
