Drake - the motto!

Sample of lyric- I’m the fuckin man, you don’t get it do ya?

Type of money everybody acting like they knew ya

Go Uptown, New York City Biiitch

Some Spanish girls love me like I’m Aventura

Tell Uncle Luke I’m out in Miami too

Clubbing hard, Fuckin’ women ain’t much to do...

That's dope shit right there!

Surely by Supertramp

Surely there's a way, I could please you

Only in your past, lie the tears

Surely there's a day, you can say went your way

Some illusion, you can keep through the years

Only if I lied, could I love you?

Nothin' of our lives could we share

Only could we try to get by, on a sigh

Just because just this once, I was there

pink floyd

If you negotiate the minefield in the drive

And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes

And if you make it past the shotgun in the hall

Dial the combination open the priesthole

And if I'm in I'll tell you........ what's behind my wall.

think it says a lot about me.... under all the defences, there may be something worth knowing.

Bridge over Troubled water.

When you're weary

Feeling small

When tears are in your eyes

I will dry them all

I'm on your side

When times get rough

And friends just can't be found

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will lay me down

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will lay me down

When you're down and out

When you're on the street

When evening falls so hard

I will comfort you

I'll take your part

When darkness comes

And pain is all around

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will lay me down

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will lay me down

Sail on Silver Girl,

Sail on by

Your time has come to shine

All your dreams are on their way

See how they shine

If you need a friend

I'm sailing right behind

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will ease your mind

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will ease your mind .

Fave album title is 'Oedipus schmoedipus' by Barry Adamson

Lyrics... my favorite wordsmith is Nick Cave. Taking lyrics out of context seldom works but here are some that when listened to in context are just great.

from 'Into My Arms'

I don't believe in an interventionist God

But I know, darling, that you do

But if I did I would kneel down and ask him

Not to intervene when it came to you

Not to touch a hair on your head

To leave you as you are

And if he felt he had to direct you

Then direct you into my arms

****************************

From 'Do You Love Me?'

All things move towards their end

I knew before I met her that I would lose her

I swear I made every effort to be good to her

Made every effort not to abuse her

Crazy bracelets on her wrists and her ankles

and the bells from the chapel go jingle jangle

***********************************

from 'Idiot Prayer'

If you're in heaven then you'll forgive me, dear

Because that's what they do up there

If you're in hell, then what can I say

You probably deserved in anyway

I guess I'm gonna find out any day

For we'll meet again

And there'll be hell to pay

******************************

From 'Nature Boy'

You took me back to your place

And dressed me up in a deep sea diver's suit

You played the patriot, you raised the flag

And I stood at full salute

Later on we smoked a pipe that struck me dumb

And made it impossible to speak

As you closed in, in slow motion,

Quoting Sappho, in the original Greek

******************************

I want somebody to share, share the rest of my life

Share my innermost thoughts, know my intimate details

Someone who'll stand by my side and give me support

And in return she'll get my support

She will listen to me when I want to speak

About the world we live in and life in general

Though my views may be wrong, they may even be perverted

She'll hear me out, and won't easily be converted

To my way of thinking in fact she'll often disagree

But at the end of it all she will understand me

[From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/d/depeche-mode-lyrics/somebody-lyrics.html]

Aaa

I want somebody who cares for me passionately

With every thought and with every breath

Someone who'll help me see things in a different light

All the things I detest I will almost like

I don't want to be tied to anyone's strings

I'm carefully trying to steer clear of those things

But when I'm asleep I want somebody

Who will put their arms around me, kiss me tenderly

Though things like this make me sick

In a case like this I'll get away with it

Martin Gore

He makes you laugh

He brings you out in style.

He treats you well

And makes you up real fine.

And when he's strong,

He's strong for you.

And when you kiss

It's something new.

But did you ever call my name

Just by mistake?

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

In no particular order:

"Is it wrong to wish on space hardware"

"Hey, I'm depraved on account I'm deprived"

"... I'd be at peace and I'd have no desire / If I'd lived right"

"When I was a child / I caught a fleeting glimpse / Out of the corner of my eye..."

"Won't you tell him please to put on some speed / Follow my lead, how I need / Someone to watch over me"

"A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind"

"Time together with time to spare / Time to look, time to care / Some day!"

And my all time favourite 'rhyme'

"You get enough germs to catch pneumonia / After you do, he'll never phone you"

Jim Croce's Time in a Bottle

If I could save time in a bottle

The first thing that I'd like to do

Is to save every day 'til eternity passes away

Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever

If words could make wishes come true

I'd save every day like a treasure and then

Again, I would spend them with you

But there never seems to be enough time

To do the things you want to do once you find them

I've looked around enough to know

That you're the one I want to go through time with

If I had a box just for wishes

And dreams that had never come true

The box would be empty except for the memory

Of how they were answered by you

But there never seems to be enough time

To do the things you want to do once you find them

I've looked around enough to know

That you're the one I want to go through time with.

I always liked the song but it became very meaningful when my late partner was diagnosed with terminal cancer

Blur-Charmless Man

I met him in a crowded room

Where people go to drink away their gloom

He sat me down and so began

The story of a charmless man

Educated the expensive way

He knows his claret from a beaujolais

I think he'd like to have been Ronnie Kray

But then nature didn't make him that way

He thinks his educated airs those family shares

Will protect him, that you will respect him

He moves in circles of friends who just pretend that they like him

He does the same to them and when you put it all together

There's the model of a charmless man

He knows the swingers and their cavalry

Says he can get in anywhere for free

I began to go a little cross eyed

And from this charmless man I just had to hide

He talks at speed he gets nose bleeds

He doesn't see his days are tumbling down upon him

Yet he tries so hard to please he's just so keen for you to listen

But no-one is listening and when you put it all together

There's the model of a charmless man

He thinks his educated airs, those family shares

Will protect him, that you will respect him

Yet he tries so hard to please he's just so keen for you to listen

But no-one is listening and when you put it all together

There's the model of a charmless man

hexham

listening to this right now, and loving it more every time i listen, have to thank a wise man who widened my education...and it makes me think of him...

He walked lookin' over his shoulder and remained faithful to its code

When something caught his eye he'd measure his need

And then very carefully he'd proceed

Billy met a young girl in the early days of May

It was there in her arms he let his cautiousness slip away

In their lovers twilight as the evening sky grew dim

He'd lay back in her arms and laugh at what had happened to him

On his right hand Billy'd tattooed the word love and on his left hand was the word fear

And in which hand he held his fate was never clear

Come Indian summer he took his young lover for his bride

And with his own hands built her a great house down by the riverside

Now Billy was an honest man he wanted to do what was right

He worked hard to fill their lives with happy days and loving night

Alone on his knees in the darkness for steadiness he'd pray

For he knew in a restless heart the seed of betrayal lay

One night Billy awoke from a terrible dream callin' his wife's name

She lay breathing beside him in a peaceful sleep, a thousand miles away

He got dressed in the moonlight and down to the highway he strode

When he got there he didn't find nothing but road

Billy felt a coldness rise up inside him that he couldn't name

Just as the words tattooed 'cross his knuckles he knew would always remain

At their bedside he brushed the hair from his wife's face as the moon shone on her skin so white

Filling their room in the beauty of God's fallen light

Bruce Springsteen Cautious man
