Ingleright (m973036@zumwalt.nadn.navy.mil) @SONG: Elemental This race is already run... Get off your horse, get on this train! Hey-ah...hey-ah...Oohhh... Welcome to the real world I said welcome to the real world Are we rushing like the wind, naked out and naked in? Welcome to the free world I said welcome to the me world Are we rushing like the ... wind? (ooh...ooh...ooh) (ooh...ooh) Put your lovin' arms around! Did you lose your faith in God, no? Does your conscience always get you down? Fall to pieces, rough and tumble Does your conscience always get you down? These days it's all in the mind... It's elemental Don't say you're up when you're down... It's elemental (ooh...ooh...ooh) (ooh...ooh) Put your lovin' arms around! This your New Year's resolution? Put your lovin arms around! Nothing doing, revolution... Put your lovin' arms around! Take another leap in the dark With a humble heart Do yourself some good... What did you become? Patience...be sure... Baby! Baby! These days it's all in the mind... It's elemental Don't say you're up when you're down... It's elemental (Repeat 2x, fade) @SONG: Cold The coldest shoulder cast in metal Frozen to the bone To rely on hook, line, and sinker What a sinker, sinking like a stone You'd be better off alone She saw me on the television Underneath the sun Thought that I was warm like a mother, lover, brother Brother she was wrong Me, I don't long to belong Cold Been excommunicated 'cause I'm Cold My temperature's been rated and I'm Cold Bring to me my big old sweater Nothing more will make me better I met her on a Monday and my heart did nothing new Seems she thought of me as some mystic Fatalistic, mystical guru Me, I haven't got a clue We're floating on a magic carpet High above the earth You can see the world like a Buddha Bread-and-Buddha Bigger than your hurt Don't you know that love is work? Cold No heat on the horizon, guess I'm Cold And Capricorn is rising, yes I'm Cold Listened to my old friend Nockles Hoped that it would warm the cockles You can't fight the fear, you can't...this is the road you're on You don't belong to me, you don't belong to anyone Your reputation lies not in your eyes, but those who dare Will bite the hand that feeds when it don't meet your needs When you've got blood to bleed, you've got a life to lead... In the flood...with my blood...I can hold you In the flood...with my blood... Cold Been excommunicated 'cause I'm Cold My temperature's been rated and I'm Cold Bring to me my big old sweater Nothing more will make me better Cold No heat on the horizon, guess I'm Cold There'll be no compromising... Cold, cool, cold Stone Cold! Stone Cold! Stone Cold! Stone Cold! (Cold...cool...cold...) Stone Cold! (fade) @SONG: Break It Down Again Break it down again So those are my dreams And these are my eyes Stand tall like a man Head strong like a horse! When it's all mixed up Better break it down (ooh-hoo...ooh-hoo) In the world of secrets In the world of sound (ooh-hoo) It's in the way you're always hiding from the light See for yourself you have been sitting on a time-bomb No revolution, maybe someone somewhere else Can show you something new about you and your inner song And all the love, and all the love in the world Won't stop the rain from falling, waste seeping underground (Break it down again) I want to break it down (Break it down again) Break it down again So those are my schemes And these are my plans Hot tips for the boys Fresh news from the force! When it's all mixed up Better break it down (ooh-hoo...ooh-hoo) In the world of silence In the world of sound (ooh-hoo...) "No sleep for dreaming" say the architects of life Big bouncing babies, bread and butter, can I have a slice? They make no mention of the beauty of decay Blue, yellow, pink umbrella, save it for a rainy day And all the love, and all the love in the world Won't stop the rain from falling, waste seeping underground (Break it down again) I want to break it down (Break it down again) Horsin' around Pray to the power Play to the crowd with your big hit sound And they won't simmer, won't simmer, won't simmer down Play to the crowd Play to the crowd Play... It's in the way you're always hiding from the light Fast off to heaven just like Moses on a motorbike No revolution, maybe someone somewhere else Can show you something new to help with the ups and downs (Break it down again) I want to break it down (Break it down again) Break it down again (Break it down again) Break it down again No more sleepy dreamin' No more building up, it is time to dissolve Break it down again No more sleepy dreamin' @SONG: Mr. Pessimist Time will swallow your precious time Like magic create the future What makes a man so fickle? Who put the daggers in those eyes? Was it to learn Through dark days of struggle? Was it to burn To burst all our bubbles? Thunder and rain Well the cynical flame, will it heat, stick, and blister? Thunder and rain Evangelistic brother should be banging a tambourine Go wash your hands and fingers till your mind is clean! Was it your fate To sleep like a normal? Time and decay No man is immortal Thunder and rain Boredom and pain lit the cynical flame, will it heat, stick, and blister? Thunder and rain Still try to resist The pessimist The pessimist, no no! And these things I find In the back of my mind Where time lasts forever I get all mixed up, think I'm all mankind Listen Mr. Pessimister with your Catholic taste... Oh, listen Mr. Pessimister, Pessimister, we do not relate... Listen Mr. Pessimister, Pessimister, Pessimister... Mr. Pessimister! @SONG: Dog's A Best Friend's Dog Shame! Dog shame! I know what's wrong Man's too old and wise Bring in the dog Turn on Down to mountain rescue Slip and slide when sunnny Small cat better move along or this bitch could do some harm, baby! Straight as an arrow, I'm walking the dog... Walking the dog! Three is a crowd Two is a dog and me playing (what's he saying?) Free as a cloud No one ever really knew you Make clear your illusion, no, no, no, no, no! Some dreams you dream alone You thank Christ you're coming home You better better give the dog a bone! Go go go go chew chew chew chew Some dreams you dream alone Go get a life and ease the pain Dog's a best friend's dog! Dog's a best friend's dog! Words (words...words...words...) Speech (speech...speech...speech...) Blurred (blurred...blurred...blurred...) Bleached (bleached...bleached...bleached...) Tell Mr. God 't I'm walking the dog... Walking the dog! Some dreams you dream alone You thank Christ you're coming home You better better give the dog a bone! Go go go go chew chew chew chew Some dreams you dream alone Go get a life and ease the pain Dog's a best friend's dog! Dog's a best friend's dog! Dog's a best friend's dog! Dog's a best friend's dog! Dog's a best friend's dog! @SONG: Fish Out Of Water You always said you were the compassionate one But now you're laughing at the sun With all your high-classed friends, you think you've got it made The only thing you made was that tanned look on your face With all your cigarettes and fancy cars You ain't a clue who or what you are... You're dreaming your life away... Fish out of water Go swim in the tide today... Fish out of water We used to sit and talk about primal scream To exorcise our past was our adolescent dream But now it's sink or swim since your memory fails Now in Neptune's kitchen you will be food for killer whales And now the crucifix his mother made Hangs one more martyr to the hit parade You're dreaming your life away... Fish out of water Go swim in the tide today... Fish out of water You're dreaming your life away... Fish out of water Go swim in the tide today... Fish out of water @SONG: Gas Giants Giants on Armistice Day Caught between the rock and the renegade @SONG: Power Last year's rivals share their blood Sailors sworn to secrecy Ride the waves and stem the flood The tides of endless enmity Power now is all the rage Sons and daughters of the gun Hungry babies come of age Phasors switched and set to stun (Power...now!) (Power...how!) (Power...wow!) Here's power! If you're seeking power... Doctor held you tired and torn Boy he was a lucky man Out of you the future born Slight of foot and slight of hand Douse the candle, dim the light Focus not on fire or flame Don't believe that might is right Your soul can turn you just the same (Power...now!) (Power...how!) If you're seeking power... (Power...wow!) Here's power! (Power...now!) (Power...how!) If you're seeking power... (Power...wow!) Here's power! If you take my breath away The whole damn thing will turn and return, redefinded, rearranged, rearranged And till my dying day I guess I'll have to burn just to learn, this the time, this the place To show a human face... Dressed to kill we guessed you might Friend or foe or family We'll sacrifice the Virgin white Her death will be the life of me Power now is all the rage Don't excuse it...use it well Keep the lion in his cage Free from hunger, free from hell! (Power...now!) (Power...how!) If you're seeking power... (Power...wow!) Here's power! (Power...now!) (Power...how!) If you're seeking power... (Power...wow!) Here's power! (fade) @SONG: Brian Wilson Said My life...nothing was easy till now Hope like the morning will paint the dawn More than ordinary, make it more than merry, take me to the jamboree And shine a light... On... Me... Draw back the curtains and smile Everything's wow! Girls are ten a penny, Janet, Joy, and Jenny, Judy, Joan, and Jackie G. Hear me now I warn you, girls from California Break your heart and set you free My life Shame to rely, but I swear it's the best I can do Like a flame, like an i with a dot I am not you Call me guilty, I swear I'm an man who can fly I keep coming back, I'll get back to you My life...nothing was easy till now @SONG: Goodnight Song Here on the stage The time has come With the strains of "Be My Angel," of rock in two-four Time may keep alive that old swan song That we've been playing...forever... Till the time maybe right to say goodbye... My voice is aching I'm tongue-tired And the sounds we are making are so...{uninspired} Goodnight song Played so wrong Blame the crowd, they Scream so loud, so long Get some honesty Take the best of me, and then the rest let go In every situation With it's tireless rage Step outside your cage and let the real fool show I should have stayed round to break the ice I thought about it once or twice But nothing ever changes unless there's some pain... And our Goodnight song Played so wrong Blame the crowd, they Scream so loud, so long Goodnight song Played so wrong Blame the crowd, they Scream so loud, so long
