Sparkle lyrics

I'm glad you found the time to ring.
I just spent all day waiting.
I need to know what's happening.
Well at least we both agree.
Really don't know where to start.
Did you say you met some neighbor.
I guess I'm headed for a broken heart.
Why are you doing this to me?
It's so clear.
I can hear, and i'm not gonna share you with no one.
Surprise, I've got eyes, now goodbye.

Look At You lyrics

My oh my, can you save my life?
It doesn't have to mean looking out for me.
Hey now look at you, way cool, on time.
There's no room for Mamacita,
no room for mamacita.
Sit tight she said.
A Ok and that's what she'll say
while falling on the ground, leaves in her hair.
Hey now look at you, way cool, on time.
There's no room for Mamacita,
no room for mamacita...

Last Christmas lyrics

[Originally by Wham!]

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I’ll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I’ll give it to someone special.

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away

Jen lyrics

We left behind the busy crowd.
So it seems we slow down.
Meet me with a way out through the lies.
Nowhere, going nowhere in the fake yellow light.
The feelings change so fast.
Safety scares them away.
I can't bring myself to say it's my own advice I need.
Nowhere and then nowhere.
Living trapped inside the chase.
Our weakness is the same.
We need poison sometimes.

Indecent Exposure lyrics

"Ha, caught you in the act you disciples of dirtiness.
Officers arrest these nekkid people now."
You've seen mine,
I've seen yours.
I've got no toilet but I cannot go outside.
Turn your fingers right off.
Cross your heart now spin and fall.
Haven't you got any passion at all?
We're the same, human rain.
Here is the guide to get you through this town.
Can't see the mustard anymore.

Firestarter lyrics

[Originally by Prodigy]

i'm the trouble starter
pumpkin instigator
im the fear addicted
danger illustrated
im a twisted
you're a twisted
im a twisted
firestarter

im the bitch you hated
filth infatuated
im the pain you tasted
well intoxicated

im a twisted
you're a twisted
im a twisted
firestarter

i'm the self inflicted
my detinator
i'm the one inflicted

Big Cars lyrics

It's not a dream (not a dream), watch your lips move but can't hear
I can see (I can see) everything else is unclear
Camera's on (camera's on), fixed on one face and on tears
What a scene (what a scene), fly us in and you'll all cheer

If there's something wrong you just press Delete

Your family can sleep well tonight
We're a long, long way

Angst For Joel lyrics

Is this promenade a musician?
And all that man can do is always compare original?
Doesn't matter what I say all I know is I got it in me.
And why do all the other records sound the same?
And I can stay right here.
And I ain't going off to pee.
But you won't hear one word I say.
No you're not listening.
So what I'm doing nothing here.

If You Were Born Today lyrics

[Originally by Low]

If you were born today
We'd kill you by age eight
Never get the chance to say

Joy to the world and
Peace on the earth
Forgive them for they know not what they do

Blessed are the meek and
Blessed are the humble
Blessed are the ninety and nine

Deny the flesh
Deny all that's evil
Tonight you'll deny me thrice

If you were born today

New Religion lyrics

i've been now sauntering out and down a path sometime

it takes me nowhere which i knew

i need a reason

call it treason
maybe catch her i don't know

too Much to know

bring my timing in, seagulls gather on the wind

lady screaming, lady leave

'cause sometimes people stare

coming down, electric chair

and steaming crowds they gather and they shout

The Concept lyrics

[Originally by Teenage Fanclub]

she wears denim wherever she goes,
says she's gonna buy some records by status quo
oh yeah
oh yeah

still she won't be forced against her will
says she don't do drugs but she does the pill
oh yeah
oh yeah.

i didn't want to hurt you oh yeah
i didn't want to hurt you oh yeah

says she likes my hair cause it's down my back

You're On And Off lyrics

Phase in phase out.
Cross your heart crash burn and fall.
Under cushions hide the change.
So no one knows.
Just be careful who you tell.
I really want to care when you say : "I'll change that".
I just don't feel a thing when you say: "We'll get there..."

Anderson Mesa lyrics

Don't leave without intentions of ever coming back.
vacation. you take them if you wanted you'd ask them.
alone i'm outside.
red sky, i wait there.
snowfall above me.
so new yet fading.
graveyard.
run around or jump the fence.
don't leave without intentions of ever coming back.

Robot Factory lyrics

Falling off this cycle
and it really ticks me off when you calculate this time and place.
looking over shoulders,
can always be like what it seems when you were left to my old man.
i am why you bring me here,
tear these cloths down when we fight.
back around these towers.
like something you don't want to see.
like yesterday when you were found.

In The Same Room lyrics

Fingers in, listen what voices say.
you always wrote for me, ego.
risk worth taking risk worth leaving.
seems i'm still afraid to promise.
too big to stop too big to hold on to.
trade up for the fast ride.
trade your friends.
train passes us.
pulling your teeth you push away.
cancel plans, cancel them all.
check your breath for cold and hold on.
please hold on.

World Is Static lyrics

The longest time away.
think last time the friends we made.
the longest time away.
best friend is too cheap to stay.
of course i'll go with you, not every day i get to.
of course i'll stay with you, how often.
pictures tell so much.
they remind me often.
your voice brings back so much... situations.
between the money and your every move, acceptance.
between the money and your every move.

Caveman lyrics

A monster lives in your backyard.
the 2x4's are making their way around.
the big get bigger when the fight's done.
i found that secret door.
a man with a shovel's gonna dig deep down to find out where it feeds.
a house.
a catalog full of nothing good.
the white house ponders no remourse.
the big get bigger when the fight's done.
i found that secret door.

Digits lyrics

Pay attention.
Stop playing for regret.
Fossil resources all used up.
Make the best use of your time.
You could be on to something.
Too skeptic, too tired to care.
When they all seem to know at once.
Sweet muse left me all alone.
There's only dead weight left.
Euthanasia could be the gift.
Save the long car ride home.
Don't leave the house today.
Nothing lost but still nothing gained.

Episode IV lyrics

Episode IV leads us away from here.
don't expect to find what you're (looking to).
i can see the light leading away from you.
let's disappear, we'll take a trip of no return to outer space.
and swim in pools which keep us warm, cleaned off the sand from off your feet.
we'll dance off time to the songs we've never liked.
and sing off key thinking it sounds all right.

Seventeen lyrics

Hung up here on a web of comfort.
Taking off with nowhere to go.
Standing tall with but your new cloak armor.
Making out like it's all been done.
It's harder than it seems.
You slip but never fall.
They'll take you, when you wont come back to me.
Tearing down what we built up so well.
Layin low as you came my way.
Look alive with your head on backwards, goin off when there's nothin wrong.

Call It In The Air lyrics

Leave home today.
escape your region.
it's in your head, keep moving on.
become your dad.
live unquestioned.
it's in your head, nostalgia is death.
choose starlight.
no way to retrace.
it is gone.
choose star bright.
no way to retrace.
it is gone.
no way to retrace all your good days add them up.
it is gone.
none of you knew any more then. leave it here.
it is gone.

Claire lyrics

one chance to show your face.
this one shot all you get.
pass by your one good thing.
lift your head back shoot and chase.
never hear you laugh like that, so full.
not since you were nine.
learn your restricted ropes.
paint a cross on your left hand.
one good thing signed away and with it your only hope.
attention focused on today.
so quiet slip behind my back.

Rockstar lyrics

Where you're hiding, the shine off the wall.
Stop giving it up now cause you're gonna find yourself a mastermind in time.
Rockstar, what's mine is yours.
Rockstar, you're looking good.
You're looking to find a fight.
I'm the stranger here you know.
Can't you understand that things always work out my way today.
Rockstar, what's mine is yours.
Rockstar, you're looking good.

Thinking, That's All lyrics

Play your hand.
don't play it off.
don't play that game.
out of touch.
there is no pride in seconds lost.
first cello suite.
I know I'm late.
what do you care.
stop dragging feet.
we can't go back for seconds lost.
smooth the sheets.
no one was here and never will.
wind your watch for seconds gone.
drive by don't stop.
hate wins don't stop.
guilt won't let you because you let it.
