Did I Say That Out Loud - Barenaked Ladies

"Now we got a history,
Is it such a mystery,
How I fell for you?"

I recorded a take of "St.James Infirmary" but my voice sounded so horrible, i deleted it.

Planning on re-recording a demo i recorded two (?) months ago. It's called "Stay With Me (All Night Long)" and it has a typical 80's guitar riff (turned around it actually sounds like Since You've Been Gone)

Houses of The Holy - Led Zeppelin

Love this line:

"Let the music be your master"

Let me take you to the movie
Can I take you to the show?
Let me be yours ever truly
Can I make your garden grow?

From the houses of the holy
We can watch the white doves go
From the door comes Satan's daughter
And it only goes to show
And you know

There's an angel on my shoulder
In my hand, a sword of gold
Let me wander in your garden
And the seeds of love I'll sow
You know

So the world is spinnin' faster
Are you dizzy when you stall?
Let the music be your master
Will ya heed the master's call?
Oh-whoa, save me, man

Said, there ain't no use in crying
'Cause it will only, only drive you mad
Does it hurt to hear them lying?
Was this the only world you had? Oh-whoa

So let me take ya, take ya to the movies
Can I take ya, baby, to the show?
Why don'tcha let me be yours ever truly?
Can I make your garden grow?
And you know, that's right

In my time of dying, want nobody to mourn
All I want for you to do is take my body home
Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Jesus gotta make out, sure know
Jesus gonna make out
Jesus gonna make it my dyin' bed

Meet me, Jesus, meet me
Ooh, meet me in the middle of the air
If my wings should fail me, Lord
Please meet me with another pair
Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Oh-whoa, well, well, well, so I can die easy
Jesus gonna make out
Somebody, somebody, oh, oh
Jesus gonna make out
Jesus gonna make it my dyin' bed

Oh, Saint Peter at the gates of Heaven, won't you let me in?
I never did no wrong, I never did no wrong
Uh, oh, Gabriel, let me blow your horn, let me blow your horn
Oh, never did no wrong, did no wrong
I've only been beyond once
I never thought I'd do anybody no wrong, no, no one, sir
Aww, good

Oh, I did s-somebody some good
Somebody some good, yes, oh
Oh, did somebody some good, yeah
I musta did somebody some good, yeah
Oh, I believe I did
I see the smilin' faces
I know there must be lipstick traces, oh

Ah

And I see them in the streets
And I see them in the field, yeah
And I hear them under my feet
And I know it's got to be real
Oh, Lord, deliver me
All the wrong I've done
Ooh, you can deliver me, Lord
I only wanted to have some fun

Oh, hear the angels marching, they're marching
Hear them marching, hear them marching, they're marching

Oh, my Jesus, oh, my Jesus, oh, my Jesus, oh, my Jesus
Oh, my Jesus, oh, my Jesus, oh, my Jesus, oh, my Jesus
Oh, my Jesus, oh my Je-ah-oh
Now my Je, hey, yeah, it's gotta be my Jesus, whoa-whoa
It's gotta be, it's gotta be my Jesus
It's gotta be, oh
It's gotta be my Jesus
Oh, a-take me home

Come on, come on, I can hear the angels singing
Oh, here they come, here they come, here they come
'Bye-'bye, 'bye-'bye, 'bye-'bye, 'bye-'bye, 'bye-'bye
Oh, it feels pretty good up here, pretty good up here
Oh Georgina, Oh Georgina, Oh Georgina
Oh Georgina, Oh Georgina
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohh, ohh, oww yeah, ooh, it's real good
Come on, take it, take it, take it, take, take
Take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, ooh yes, c'mon, uh
Oh, yeah
Oh, don'tcha make it, my dyin', dyin', dyin'... cough

From the window of your rented limousine
I caught your pretty blue eyes
One day soon you're gonna reach sixteen
Painted lady in the city of lies

Oh, do ya know my name?
Do I look the same?
You know I'm the one you want, baby
I must be the one you need, yeah

Clutchin' pages from your teenage dream
In the lobby of the Hotel Paradise
Through the circus of the L.A. queens
How fast you'll learn the downhill slide

Oh, how ya play the game
Still don't know your name
You know I'm the one you want, baby
Woo-ooh, yes, I've got to be the one you need, need, need, need, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, you've got to tell me

Just a minute, just a minute
Lips like cherries on the brow of a queen
"Come on" flashed across your eyes
Said you dug me since you were thirteen
Then you giggle as you heave and sigh

Oh, do ya know my name?
Do I look the same?
Baby, I've got to tell ya, I'm the one you want
And everybody knows I'm the one you need, yeah, yeah
Oh, get it, get it, come on now, come on now, come on now

Hours, hours, with the moments in between
Oh, baby, how the time flies
The fun of comin', oh, the pain in leavin'
Oh, baby, dry those silver eyes

Oh, do ya know my name?
Do I look the same?
You know I'm the one you want
Woo-ooh, yeah, yes, I'm the one you need, yeah, yeah

Ooh, that's right, ooh, yeah, that's right
Ooh, that's right, that's right, that's right
Ooh, yeah, that's right, that's right
Ahh-ahh-ah-ah, ahh-ahh-ah-ah, ahh-ahh-ah-ah
Ahh-ahh-ah-ah, ahh-ahh-ah-ah

Really stupid lyrics, aren't they?

Down by the seaside, see the boats go sailin'
A-can the people hear, oh, what the little fish are sayin'?
Aaah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, oh, people turned away, oh, the people turned away

Down in the city streets, see all the folk go racin', racin'
No time left, no, no, to pass the time of day in
Aaah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Yay, yay, yeah, aw, the people turned away, people turned away, so far away, so far away

See how they run, see how they run
See how they run, see how they run
Run run run, run run run, run run run

Do you still do the twist?
Do you find that you remember things that well?
I wanna tell you, some go twistin' every day
Though sometimes it's awful hard to tell
Ah-hah, ah-hah, ah-hah, oh

Out in the country, hear the people singin'
Singin' 'bout the growin', knowin' where they're goin', yeah, yeah, they know, yeah, they know
Aaah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, people turned away, yeah, the people turned away

Sing loud for the sunshine
Pray hard for the rain
And show your love for Lady Nature
And she will come back again
Yes she will, yes, she will

Aaah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, oh, oh, people turned away, the people turned away
Don't they know that they're goin'

Shopping - Barenaked Ladies

"Well you know that it's going to be alright
I think it's gonna be alright
Everything will always be alright
When we go shopping"

As I walk down the highway, all I do is sing a song
And a train that's passin' my way helps the rhythm move along
There is no doubt about, the words are clear
The voice is strong, it's oh, so strong

Just a simple guy, and live from day to day
A ray of sunshine melts my frown, blows my blues away
There's nothin' more that I can say
But on a day like today, I'll pass the time away
And walk a quiet mile with you

All I need from you is all your l-love
All you gotta give to me is all your love
All I need from you is all your love
All you gotta give to me is all your love
Ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah

I'm so glad I'm livin', (stop), gonna tell the world I am
I got me a fine woman and she says that I'm her man
A-one thing that I know for sure
Gonna give her all the lovin' like nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody can

Standin' in the noon-day sun tryin' to flag a ride
People go and people come, see my rider right by my side
It's a total disgrace, they set the pace
It must be race
The best thing I can do is run

All I need from you is all your love
All you gotta give to me, all your love
All I need from you is all your love
All you gotta give to me is all your love
Ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah, hey

Aw, yeah, aw, yeah, aw, yeah
Oh, just remember said you'd be my one
All I really said was 'be my one'
Ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah
Ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah
Ah-hah-hah-hah-hah-hah, yeah, yeah
Ah-hah-hah-hah-hah-hah-hah, yeah, yeah

Tea For One - Led Zeppelin

Not the right song for my situation, but when i spin its more well known (but inferior IMO) brother"Since I've Been Loving You" i have to spin it too.

Ne-ne-ne-ne-Nobody's Fault But MINE!

Should I fall out of love, my fire in the light
To chase a feather in the wind
Within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight
There moves a thread that has no end.

For many hours and days that pass ever soon
The tides have caused the flame to dim
At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom
Is this to end or just begin?

All of my love, all of my love
Oh, all of my love to you now
All of my love, all of my love
Oh, all of my love to you now.

The cup is raised, the toast is made yet again
One voice is clear above the din
Proud Arianne one word, my will to sustain
For me, the cloth once more to spin.

Oh, all of my love, all of my love
Oh, all of my love for you now
All of my love, all of my love
Yes, all of my love to you, child.

Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time
His is the force that lies within
Ours is the fire, all the warmth we can find
He is a feather in the wind.

Oh, all of my love, all of my love
Oh, all of my love to you now
All of my love, oh-oh
Yes, all of my love to you now.

All of my love, all of my love
All of my love, love
Sometimes, sometimes, alright
Sometimes, sometimes, oh, all
Hey-hey-hey, hey-hey-hey
Ooh, ooh, yeah,
It's, all, all, all, all, all of my love, all of my love
All of my love to you now
All of my love, all of my love
All of my love
To, to you and you and you and you and yeah
I get a little bit lonely, just a little, just a little
Just a little bit lonely, just a little bit lonely
Hey, hey, hey, hey...

Sitting in a silent room
The walls around me screaming
Rely on nothing wait on no-one
Standing between light and dark
Watch the mirrors gleaming
Shine on nothing showing no-one

Drowning on dry land
Cast adrift on an empty sea
Drowning on dry land
Put aside with the will to be

Stranded at the break of dawn
And where the story's ending
Tells of nothing hearing no-one
I stand without a word to say
The silent room is empty
Sings of nothing changing no-one

Drowning on dry land
Cast adrift on an empty sea
Drowning on dry land
Put aside with the will to be

While you were out...
the message says
You left a number
and I tried to call
But they wrote it down
in a perfect Spanish scrawl
in a perfect Spanish scrawl

Yet again
I'm missing you
King size bed
(in a) hotel someplace
I hear your name
I see your face
I see your face

(The) back street dolls
and the side door johnnies
The wide eyed boys with their bags full of
money
Back in the alley
going bang to the wall
Tied to the tail
of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be
so high I know
if the times gone by
hadn't been so low
The best laid plans
come apart at the seams
and shatter all my dreams

Sometimes I feel like...
Screaming
close my eyes
It's times like this
my head goes down
and the only thing I know
is the name of this town
is the name of this town

Yet again
I'm missing you
won't be long
O' coming home
Until that distant time
I'll be moving on
I'll be moving on

just beautiful.

I had a dream, oh, now, crazy dream, ohh-ohh
Anything I wanted to know, any place I needed to go
Hear my song, now, people, don't ya listen, now
Sing along, oh, you don't know what you're missin', now
Any little song that you know
Everything that's small has to grow
And so it grows, yeah, push, push, yeah-ah

Na-na-na-na-na-ah-ah
California sunlight
Sweet Calcutta rain
Honolulu starbright
The song remains the same
Ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-hohh-ohh,

Head-on
Ah
Keep on

All you got to do, all the night
All you, all you gotta do now, all you gotta do now, ooh with me

Sing out Hare, Hare
Ooh, dance the Hoochie-Koo
City lights are oh, so bright as we go slidin', slidin'
Slidin', slidin', slidin' slidin' slidin' slidin'
Slidin-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah on.

It is the springtime of my loving -
The second season I am to know
You are the sunlight in my growing -
So little warmth I've felt before
It isn't hard to feel me glowing -
I watched the fire that grew so low.

It is the summer of my smiles -
Flee from me, Keepers of the Gloom
Speak to me only with your eyes -
It is to you I give this tune
Ain't so hard to recognize, oh -
These things are clear to all from time to time.

Ah, talk, talk, talk, talk -
Hey, I've felt the coldness of my winter
I never thought it would ever go
I cursed the gloom that set upon us, 'pon us, 'pon us
But I know that I love you so, ah
Oh, but I know that I love you so.

These are the seasons of emotion -
And like the winds, they rise and fall
This is the wonder of devotion -
I see the torch we all must hold
This is the mystery of the quotient, quotient -
Upon us, upon us all a little rain must fall
Just a little rain, oh, oh
Ooh, yeah-yeah-yeah.

"Don't Need a Gun" by Billy Idol

I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in
And stops my mind from wandering
Where it will go

I'm filling the cracks that ran though the door
And kept my mind from wandering
Where it will go

And it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong
I'm right where I belong
I'm right where I belong
See the people standing there
Who disagree and never win
And wonder why they don't get in my door

I'm painting the room in a colourful way
And when my mind is wandering
There I will go

And it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong
I'm right where I belong
I'm right where I belong
Silly people run around
They worry me and never ask me
Why they don't get past my door

I'm taking the time for a number of things
That weren't important yesterday
And I still go

I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in
And stops my mind from wandering
Where it will go
Where it will go

Wednesday morning at five o'clock
As the day begins
Silently closing her bedroom door
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
She goes downstairs to the kitchen
Clutching her handkerchief
Quietly turning the back door key
Stepping outside she is free

She (We gave her most of our lives)
Is leaving (Sacrificed most of our lives)
Home (We gave her everything money could buy)
She's leaving home after living alone (Bye bye)
For so many years

Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
Picks up the letter that's lying there
Standing alone at the top of the stairs
She breaks down and cries to her husband
"Daddy, our baby's gone"
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly?
How could she do this to me?

She (We never thought of ourselves)
Is leaving (Never a thought for ourselves)
Home (We struggled hard all our lives to get by)
She's leaving home after living alone (Bye bye)
For so many years

Friday morning at nine o'clock
She is far away
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
Meeting a man from the motor trade

She (What did we do that was wrong?)
Is having (We didn't know it was wrong)
Fun (Fun is the one thing that money can't buy)
Something inside that was always denied (Bye bye)
For so many years

She's leaving home
Bye bye

Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh

Lovely Rita, meter maid
Lovely Rita, meter maid

Lovely Rita, meter maid
Nothing can come between us
When it gets dark I tow your heart away

Standing by a parking meter
When I caught a glimpse of Rita
Filling in the ticket in her little white book
In a cap she looked much older
And the bag across her shoulder
Made her look a little like a military man

Lovely Rita, meter maid
May I inquire discreetly
When are you free to take some tea with me?

Rita

Took her out and tried to win her
Had a laugh and over dinner
Told her I would really like to see her again
Got the bill and Rita paid it
Took her home and nearly made it
Sitting on a sofa with a sister or two

Oh lovely Rita, meter maid
Where would I be without you?
Give us a wink and make me think of you

Lovely Rita, meter maid

They'll never believe it
