FOO FIGHTERS

I, I’m a one way motorway
I’m a road that drives away
Then follows you back home
I, I’m a street light shining
I’m a white light blinding bright
Burning off and on

It’s times like these
You learn to live again
It’s times like these
You give and give again
It’s times like these
You learn to love again
It’s times like these
Time and time again

I, I’m a new day rising
I’m a brand-new sky
That hang the stars upon tonight
I, I’m a little divided
Do I stay or run away
And leave it all behind?…

QUEEN

Here I stand (here I stand)
Look around around around around around
But you won’t see me (but you won’t see me)

Now I’m here (Now I’m here), now I’m there (Now I’m there)
I’m just a … just a new man
Yes you made me live again, wow

A baby I was when you took my hand
And the light of the night burned bright

The people all stared didn’t understand
But you new my name on sight

Ooh whatever came of you and me
America’s new bride to be – ooh, don’t worry baby I’m safe and sound

Down in the dungeon just peaches ‘n’ me

Don’t I love her so
Yes you made me live again, yeah

Yeah, ooh, a thin moon me in a smoke-screen sky
Where the beams of your lovelight chase
Don’t move, don’t speak, don’t feel no pain
With the rain running down my face

Your matches still light up the sky
And many a tear lives on in my eye

Down in the city just Hoople ‘n’ me

CLASH

They cried the tears, they shed the fears
Up and down the land
They stole guitars or used guitars
So the tape would understand.
Without even
The slightest hope
Of a thousand sales
Just as if
As if there was
Hitsville in UK
I Know the boy was all alone
Till the Hitsville hit UK.

Remember
They say true talent
Will always emerge in time
When lightening hits small wonder
It’s fast rough factory trade
No expense accounts
Or lunch discounts
Or hypeing up the charts
The band went in
And knocked ‘em dead
In two minutes fifty-nine
I know the boy was all alone
Till the Hitsville hit UK

So hit it

SKUNK ANANSIE

Lost in time I can’t count the words
I said when I thought they went unheard
All of those harsh thoughts so unkind
‘Cos I wanted you

And now I sit here I’m all alone
So here sits a bloody mess, tears fly home
A circle of angels deep in war
‘Cos I wanted you

Weak as I am, no tears for you
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Deep as I am, I’m no one’s fool
Weak as I am

So what am I now? I’m love’s last hope
I’m all of the soft words I once owned
If I opened my heart, there’d be no space for air
‘Cos I wanted you

Weak as I am, no tears for you
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Deep as I am, I’m no one’s fool
Weak as I am

In this tainted soul
In this weak young heart
Am I too much for you?
