Alan Parsons Project
Eye in the sky
Don't think sorry's easily said
Don't try turning tables instead
You've taken lots of chances before
But I ain't gonna give any more
Don't ask me
That's how it goes
'Cause part of me knows what you're thinking...
Don't say words you're gonna regret
Don't let the fire rush to your head
I've heard the accusaation before
And I ain't gonna take any more
Believe me
The sun in your eyes
Made some of the lies worth believing
I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
Iam the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to see any more
To know that I can read your mind, I can read your mind
Don't leave false illusions behind
Don't cry 'cause I ain't changing my mind
Soo find another fool like before
'Cause I ain't gonna live anymore believing
Some of the lies while all of the signs are deceiving
Silence and I
If I cried out loud
Over sorrows I've known
And the secrets I've heard
It would ease my mind
Someone sharing the load
But I won't breathe a word
We're two of a kind
Silence and I
We need a chance to talk things over
Two of a kind
Silence and I
We'll find a way to work it out
When the children laughed
I was always afraid
Of the smile of the clown
So I close my eyes
Till I can't see the light
And I hide from the sound
I can hear the cry
Of a leaf on a tree
As it falls to the ground
I can hear the call
Of an echoing voice
And there's no one around
Time
Time, flowing like a river
Time, beckoning me
Who knows when we shall meet again
If ever
But time
Keeps flowing like a river
To the sea
Goodbye my love, Maybe for forever
Goodbye my love, The tide waits for me
Who knows when we shall meet again
If ever
But time
Keeps flowing like a river (on and on)
To the sea, to the sea
Till it's gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forevermore
Goodbye my friends, Maybe forever
Goodbye my friends, The stars wait for me
Who knows where we shall meet again
If ever
But time
Keeps flowing like a river (on and on)
To the sea, to the sea
Till it's gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forevermore
Old and wise
As far as my eyes can see
There are shadows approaching me
And to those I left behind
I wanted you to know
You've always shared my deepest thoughts
You follow where I go
And oh when I'm old and wise
BItter words mean little to me
Autumn winds will blow right through me
And someday in the mist of time
When they asked me if I knew you
I'd smile and say you were a friend of mine
And the sadness would be lifted from my eyes
Oh when I'm old and wise
As far as my eyes can see
There are shadows surrounding me
And to those I leave behind
I want you all to know
You've always shared my darkest hours
I'll miss you when I go
And oh, when I'm old and wise
Heavy words that tossed and blew me
Like autumn winds will blow right through me
And someday in the mist of time
When they ask you if you knew me
Remember that you were a friend of mine
As the final curtain falls before my eyes
Oh when I'm old and wise
As far as my eyes can see
Children of the moon
Pay no attention to the writing on the wall
The words seem empty 'cause there's nothing there at all
We let the wise men beat the drums too soon
We were just children of the moon
None to turn to
Nowhere to run to even if we could
Too late to save us but try to understand
The seas were empty there was hunger in the land
We let the blind man lead the way too long
Easy to see where we went wrong
Nothing to live for
Nothing to die for
We're lost in the middle of a hopeless world
Lost inthe middle of a hopeless world
Children children of the moon watch the world go by
Children children of the moon are hiding from the sun and the sky
Children children of the moon watch it all go by
Children children of the moon are blinded by the light in their eyes
No one to turn to
Nowhere to run to even if we could
Follow the pilgrim to the Temple of the Dawn
The altar's empty and the sacrifice is gone
We let the madmen write the golden rules
We were no more than mortal fools
Nothing to live for
Nothing to die for
We're lost in the middle of a hopeless world
Lost in the middle of a hopeless world
Children children of the moon watch the world go by
Children children of the moon hiding from the sky

Pink Floyd.
So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.
Shine On You Crazy Diamond(I-II-III-IV-V)
Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!
Fearless (you'll never walk alone)
You say the hill's too steep to climb,
Climb it!
You say you'd like to see me try,
Climb it!
You pick the place and I'll choose the time
And I'll climb
The hill in my own way
just wait a while, for the right day
And as I rise above the treeline and the clouds
I look down hear the sound of the things you said today
Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd, smiling
Emotionless the magistrate turns 'round, frowning
and who's the fool who wears the crown
Go down in your own way
And everyday is the right day
And as you rise above the fearlines in the frown
You look down
Hear the sound of the faces in the crowd
Brain damage
The lunatic is on the grass
The lunatic is on the grass
Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs
Got to keep the loonies on the path
The lunatic is in the hall
The lunatics are in my hall
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paper boy brings more
And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forbodings too
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon
The lunatic is in my head
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade, you make the change
You re-arrange me 'till I'm sane
You lock the door
And throw away the key
There's someone in my head but it's not me.
And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon
"I can't think of anything to say except...
I think it's marvellous! HaHaHa!"
See Emily play
Emily tries but misunderstands, ah ooh
She often inclined to borrow somebody's dreams till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play
Soon after dark Emily cries, ah ooh
Gazing through trees in sorrow hardly a sound till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play
Put on a gown that touches the ground, ah ooh
Float on a river forever and ever, Emily
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play
Embryo
All this love
Is all I am,
A ball is all I am.
I'm so new
Compared to you
And I am very small.
Warm glow,
Moon glow,
Always need a little more room.
Waiting here,
Seems like years,
Never see the light of day.
All around
I hear strange sounds
Come gurgling in my ear.
Red the light
And dark the night
I feel my dawn is near.
Warm glow,
Moon glow,
Always need a little more room.
Whisper low
Here I go,
I will see the sunshine show.

Bad Day
Where is the moment when we need it the most
you kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
you tell me your blue sky's faded to grey
you tell me your passions is gonna away
And i don't need no carry on
Stand in the line just ahead of the law
You're faking a smile with the coffee you go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carrying on
Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carrying on
Sometimes the system goes on the blink and the whole thing it turns out Wrong
You might not make it back and you know that you could be well oh that Strong
Well I'm not wrong
So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
Free Loop
I'm a little used to calling outside your name
I wont see you tonight so I can keep from going insane
But I don't know enough, I get some kinda lazy day
Hey yeah
I've been fabulous through to fight my town a name
I'll be stooped tomorrow if I don't leave as them both the same
But I dont know enough, I get some kinda lazy day
Hey yeah
Cause it's hard for me to lose
In my life I've found only time will tell
And I will figure out that we can baby
We can do a one night stand, yeah
And it's hard for me to lose in my life
I've found outside your skin right near the fire
That we can baby
We can change and feel alright
I'm a little used to wandering outside the rain
You can leave me tomorrow if it suits you just the same
But I don't know enough, I need someone who leaves the day
Hey yeah
Cause it's hard for me to lose
In my life I've found only time will tell
And I will figure out that we can baby
We can do a one night stand, yeah
And it's hard for me to lose in my life
I've found outside your skin right near the fire
That we can baby
We can change and feel alright
Cause it's hard for me to lose
In my life I've found only time will tell
I will figure out that we can baby
We can do a one night stand, yeah
And it's hard for me to lose in my life
I've found outside your skin right near the fire
That we can baby
We can change and feel alright
Cause it's hard for me to lose
In my life I've found only time will tell
And I will figure out that we can baby
We can do a one night stand, yeah
And it's hard for me to lose in my life
I've found outside your skin right near the fire
That we can baby
We can change and feel alright...
Lie To Me
I knew this girl this were cool
That lived up in my block
At 6 foot 2 her knee socks high
The class of 80 rocks
She got hips that sway for you
She got legs that never really stop
She asked me if my mamma dressed me
And I do like I should
From East Delror and fifty first
I'm on this neighbour hood
She just smiles and says to me
I just want to know if we are good
[chorus]
She said, Tell me once again why would you lie to me.
She said do me like you should why would you try for me.
From all the girls I knew where would you rather be.
Because I've got everything you want.
Take me back to yours cause that's the best I want
You can't trust me
You won't make if I put you in the mood
She said no, no I've been there before you've got that attitude
You sold me out before all this
And now I'm fabulous without you
[chorus]
Tell me once again why would you lie to me.
She said do me like you should why would you try for me.
It all depends on you where would you rather be.
Because I've got everything you want.
Take me back to yours...
Why it takes so long
It's all gone wrong
And I can't say what
Cause I've got everything you need....
Who says i could use the time for you to believe
[chorus]
Tell me once again why would you lie to me.
She said do me like you should why would you try for me.
It all depends on you where would you rather be.
Tell me once again why would you lie to me.
She said do me like you should why would you try for me.
It all depends on you where would you rather be.
Styrofoam
Try to wreath the floor and
Relax...system
But have you still
I try I come back if I could
Fake it on the weekends
Early ex-boyfriend's a lil tired
Be the long misunderstood
I paid bills and paid more
Isn't this an ordinary song?
Styrofoam
I don't never feel warm
Like grass-stains
And I'm stone cold whatever's left
I'm too tied up to come undone
Write it down on pamphlets
Perfect,oh just perfect whatever's left
Is not so easy when you down
N some of 'em good
N some of 'em bad
But i wont believe alone
Coz i'm alone
Styrofoam
N some of 'em good
N some of 'em bad
But i wont believe alone
Coz i'm alone
Styrofoam
Styrofoam

The Cranberries(之二)
Ode To My Family
Understand the things I say
Don't turn away from me
Cause I spent half my life out there
You wouldn't disagree
D'you see me, d'you see
Do you like me. Do you like me standing there
D'you notice, d'you know
Do you see me, do you see
Does anyone care
Unhappiness, where's when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me
Did she hold me, when I was out thered
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he liked me, does anyone care
Understand what I've become
It wasn't my design
And people everywhere think
Something better than I am
But I miss you. I miss
'Cause you liked it. I liked it
When I was out there
D'you know this, d'you know
You did not find me, you did not find
Does anyone care
Unhappiness was when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me
Did she hold me, when I was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh me liked me, does anyone care
Does anyone care
Never Grow Old
I had a dream
In this dream it seems
It was my perfect day
Open my eyes
I realize this is my perfect day
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Do ...
Birds in the sky
They look so high
This is my perfect day
I feel the breeze
I feel
This is my perfect day
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Forever young
I hope you stay forever young
Do...
Stars
The Stars are bright tonight
And I am walking nowhere
Guess I will be alright
Desire gets you nowhere
And you are always right
I thought you were so perfect
Take you as you were
Have you as you were
Take you as you were
I love you just the way you are
I love you just the way you are
I'll take you just the way you are
Does anybody love the way you are
Aaa Aaa Aaa
The Stars are bright tonight
A distance is between us
And I will be OK
The worst I've ever seen us
And still I have my weaknesses
And still I have my strength
And still I have my ugliness
But I, I, I
I love you just the way you are
I love you just the way you are
I'll take you just the way you are
Does anybody love the way you are
Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaaa
I love you just the way you are
I love you just the way you are
I'll take you just the way you are
Does anybody love the way you are
Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa
Star, Star
Animal Instinct
Suddenly something has happened to me
As I was having my cup of tea
Suddenly I was feeling depressed
I was utterly and totally stressed
Do you know you made me cry
Do you know you made me die
And the thing that gets to me
Is you'll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I'll always be in doubt
It is a lovely thing that we have
It is a lovely thing that we
It is a lovely thing, the animal
The animal instinct
So take my hands and come with me
We will change reality
So take my hands and we will pray
They won't take you away
They will never make me cry, no
They will never make me die
And the thing that gets to me
Is you'll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I'll always be in doubt
The animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me
It's the animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me
It's the animal, it's the animal, it's the animal instinct in me
When You're Gone
Hold on to love
That is what I do
Now that I've found you
And from above
Everything's stinking
They're not around you
And in the night
I could be helpless
I could be lonely, sleeping without
And in the day, everything's complex
There's nothing simple when I'm not around you
But I miss you when you're gone
That is what I do
Hey baby
It's hard to carry on
That is what I knew
Hey baby...
Hold on to my hands
I feel I'm stinking
Stinking without you
And to my mind
Everything's stinking
Stinking without you
And in the night I could be helpless
I could be lonely, sleeping without you
And in the day, everything's complex
There's nothing simple
When I'm not around you
I miss you when you're gone
That is what I do
Hey baby
It's hard to carry on
That is what I do
Hey baby...
Salvation
To all those people doing lines
Don't do it, don't do it
Inject your soul with liberty
It's free, it's free
To all the kids with heroin eyes
Don't do it, don't do it
Because it's not, not what it seems
No no it's not, not what it seems
Salvation...
Is free...
To all the parents with sleepless nights
Sleepless nights
Tie your kids home to their beds
Clean their heads
To all the kids with heroin eyes
Don't do it, don't do it
Cos it's not, not what it seems
No no it's not, not what it seems
Salvation...
Is free...
Time Is Ticking Out
We'd better think about the things we say
We'd better think about the games we play
The world went round, around and round
We'd better think about the consequences
We'd better think about the global senses
The time went down, the time went down
What about Chernobyl
What about radiation
We don't know, we don't know
What about deprivation
Gluttony, the human nation
We don't know, we don't know
For me love is all, for me love is all
For me love is all, for me love is all
Time is ticking out
I guess that we screwed up the ozone layer
I wonder if the politicians care
The time went down, the time went down
What about our children then
Is there nothing left for them
We don't know, we don't know Rel
For me love is all, for me love is all
For me love is all, for me love is all
La la la la the oxygen, la la la la the oxygen
For me love is all, for me love is all
For me love is all, for me love is all
Time is ticking out yeah
Time is ticking out
PRETTY EYES
Pretty eyes, pretty eyes
Not a cloud in my day
Not a cloud in my way
Angel eyes, no disguise
No pretention is here
No pretention, no fear
Don't leave me calling
Don't leave me falling
Don't leave me calling
Don't leave me falling
Stay awhile, stay awhile
I will tell you my mind
I will tell you my mind
I will kill everything
Just to take off your pain
Just to take off your pain
Don't leave me calling
Don't leave me falling
Don't leave me calling
Don't leave me falling
JUST MY IMAGINATION
There was a game we used to play
We would hit the town on Friday night
And stay in bed until Sunday
We used to be so free
We were living for the love we had
Living not for reality
It was just my imagination
There was a time I used to pray
I have always kept my faith in love
It's the greatest thing from the man above
The game I used to play
I've always put my cards upon the table
Let it never be said that I'd be unstablem
It was just my imagination
There is a game I like to play
I like to hit the town on Friday night
And stay in bed until Sunday
We'll always be this freee
We will be living for the love we have
Living not for reality
It's not my imagination
Not my

The Cranberries(之ㄧ)
Zombie
Another head hangs lowly,
Child is slowly taken.
And the violence caused such silence,
Who are we mistaken?
But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...
In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, dou, dou, dou, dou, dou...
Another mother's breakin',
Heart is taking over.
When the vi'lence causes silence,
We must be mistaken.
It's the same old theme since nineteen-sixteen.
In your head, in your head they're still fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are dying...
In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, hey, oh, ya, ya-a...
Promises
Uh...
You better belive I'm coming
You better believe what I say
You better hold on to your promises
Because you bet, you'll get what you deserve
She's going to leave him over
She's gonna take her love away
So much for your eternal vows, well
It does not matter anyway
Why can't you stay here awhile
Stay here awhile
Stay with me
(Estribillo)
Oh, all the promises we made
All the meaningless and empty words
I prayed, prayed, prayed
Oh, all the promises we broke
All the meaningless and empty words
I spoke, spoke, spoke
Do-do-do, Do-do-do, Do-do-do, Do-do-do
What of all the things that you taught me
What of all the things that you'd say
What of all your prophetic preaching
You're just throwing it all away
Maybe we should burn the house down
Have ourselves another fight
Leave the cobwebs in the closet
'Cos tearing them out is just not right
Why can't you stay here awhile
Stay here awhile
Stay with me, oh oh
Estribillo
Oh eh, oh eh, oh eh, oh eh, Oh Eh x3
Do-do-do, Do-do-do, Do-do-do, Do-do-do
Dreams
Oh my life
Is changing everyday
In every possible way
And oh my dreams
Never quiet as it seems
I know I've felt like this before
But now I'm feeling it even more
Because it come from you
And then I open up and see
The person falling here is me
A different way to be
Laa....
I want more (impossible to ignore *2)
And they'll come true (impossible not to do *2)
And now tell you openly
You have my heart so don't hurt me
You're what I couldn't find
A totally amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You're everything to me
Linger
If, you, if you could return
Don't let it bum, don't let it fade
I'm sure I'm not being rude
But it;s just your attitude
It's tearing me apart
It's ruining everything
And
I swore, I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why where you holding her hand
Is that the way we stand
Where you lying all the time
Was it just a game to you
But I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
(Do you have to *2)
Let it linger
Oh! I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
(But I was wrong *2)
If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't feel so confused
And I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you
But I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
(Do you have to *2)
Let it linger
Ridiculous Thoughts
Twister, oh,
Does anyone see through you?
You're a twister oh, an animal.
But you're so happy, now.
I didn't go along with you,
So happy now, na na na.
But you're gonna have to hold on.
You're gonna have to hold on.
You're gonna have to hold on, hold on, hold on.
Or we're gonn have to move on.
We're gonna have to move on.
We're gonna have to move on, move on, move on.
I feel alright.
And I cried so hard.
The ridiculous thoughts, oh.
I feel alright, alright, alright, alright.
Twister, oh
I shouldn't have trusted in you.
Twister oh, a na na na.
It's not gonna happen now,
You're not gonna make fun of me.
Happen now, na na na na.
But you're gonna have to hold on.
You're gonna have to hold on.
But you're gonna have to hold on, hold on, hold on.
Or we're gonna have to move on.
We're gonna have to move on.
Oh, we're gonna have to move on, move on, move on.
I feel alright.

The ridiculous thoughts, oh.
I feel alright, alright, alright, alright.
You should have lied,
But I cried so hard.
The ridiculous thought, oh.
You should a lied.
But your gonna have to hold on...
Hollywood
I've got a picture in my head
In my head
It's me and you we are in bed
We are in bed
You've always been there when I called
When I called
You've always been there most of all, all, all, all
This is not Hollywood
Like I understood
Is not Hollywood
Like, like, like
Run away, run away,
Is there anybody there?
Run away, run away,
Is there anybody there?
get away, get away, get away, away....
I've got a picture in my room
In my room
I will return there I presume
It will be soon
The greatest irony of all
Shoot the wall
It's not so glamourous at all, all, all
This is not Hollywood...
This is the day
I never had a friend like you
This is the day
Your skin is white, your eyes are blue
This is the day
But don't wind my change
I will still remain
I will always be there for you
A-ha
These thoughts, they circle in my mind
This is the day
The demons I can't leave behind
This is the day
Don't be insecure
I'll be at your door
I will always be there for you
They will save you
They will save you
They will save you
Stay! Stay!
They will save you
They will save you
They will save you
Stay! Stay!
Stay!
I have Provoked thy grace into my mind
This is the day
I have Provoked thy grace that are divine
This is the day
Don't be insecure
I'll be at your door
I will always be there for you
They will save you
They will save you
They will save you
Stay! Stay!
They will save you
They will save you
They will save you
Stay! Stay!
Stay!
But don't wind my change
I will still remain
I will still be here
But don't wind my change
I will still remain
I will always be there for you
They will save you
They will save you
They will save you
Stay! Stay!
They will save you
They will save you
They will save you
Stay! Stay!
Stay!

Soul Asylum.
Runaway Train
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
I promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep
It seems no one can help me now,
I'm in too deep; there's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray
Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Can you help me remember how to smile?
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded?
Life's mystery seems so faded
I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just a-drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train
And everything seems cut and dried,
Day and night, earth and sky,
Somehow I just don't believe it
Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughing at the rain
A little out of touch, a little insane
It's just easier than dealing with the pain
Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Runaway train, never coming back
Runaway train, tearing up the track
Runaway train, burning in my veins
I run away but it always seems the same
The World I Know
Has our conscience shown?
Has the sweet breeze blown?
Has all the kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on.
I drink myself of newfound pity
Sitting alone in New York City
And I don't know why
Are we listening
To hymns of offering?
Have we eyes to see
That love is gathering?
All the words that I've been reading
Have now started the act of bleeding
Into one...into one...
So I walk up on high
And I step to the edge
To see my world below.
And I laugh at myself
While the tears roll down.
'Cause it's the world I know.
Oh it's the world I know.
I drink myself of newfound pity
Sitting alone in New York City
And I don't know why..don't know why..
Misery
They say misery loves company
We could start a company and make misery
Frustrated, Incorporated
Well I know just what you need
I might just have the thing
I know what you'd pay to see
Put me out of my misery
I'd do it for you, would you do it for me
We will always be busy making misery
We could build a factory and make misery
We'll create the cure; we made the disease
Frustrated, Incorporated
Frustrated, Incorporated
Well I know just what you need
I might just have the thing
I know what you'd pay to feel
Put me out of my misery
All you suicide kings and you drama queens
Forever after happily, making misery
Did you satisfy your greed, get what you need
Was it only envy, so empty
Frustrated, Incorporated
Frustrated, Incorporated
Frustrated, Incorporated (put me out of my misery)
Frustrated, Incorporated (I'd do it for you, would you do it for me)
Frustrated, Incorporated (forever after happily)
Frustrated, Incorporated (making misery)
etc...

Where Did You Sleep Last Night
My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
My girl, my girl, where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
Her husband, was a hard working man
Just about a mile from here
His head was found in a driving wheel
But his body never was found
My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
My girl, my girl, where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
My girl, my girl, where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
Smells Like Teen Spirit
Load up on guns and
Bring your friends
It's fun to lose
And to pretend
She's over bored
And self assured
Oh no, I know
A dirty word
hello, how low?
With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now
Entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now
Entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My Libido
Yeah
I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end
hello, how low?
With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now
Entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now
Entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My Libido
Yeah
And I forget
Just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard
It was hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind
hello, how low?
With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now
Entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now
Entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My Libido
Yeah, a denial
A denial
A denial...

I'm so happy. Cause today I found my friends.
They're in my head. I'm so ugly. But that's ok.
'Cause so are you. We've broke our mirrors.
Sunday morning. Is everyday for all I care.
And I'm not scared. Light my candles. In a daze cause I've found god.
Yeah
I'm so lonely. And that's ok.
I shaved my head. And I'm not sad. And just maybe.
I'm to blame for all I've heard. And I'm not sure.
I'm so excited. I can't wait to meet you there.
And I don't care. I'm so horny. But that's ok. My will is good.
Yeah
I like it.
I'm not gonna crack.
I miss you.
I'm not gonna crack.
I love you.
I'm not gonna crack.
I kill you.
I'm not gonna crack.
I'm so happy. Cause today I found my friends.
They're in my head. I'm so ugly. But that's ok.
'Cause so are you. We've broke our mirrors.
Sunday morning. Is everyday for all I care.
And I'm not scared. Light my candles.
In a daze cause I've found god.

關於情逝.
Rainbow Eyes - by Rainbow
She's been gone since yesterday
Oh I didn't care
Never cared for yesterdays
Fantasies in the air
No sighs or mysteries
She lay golden in the sun
No broken harmonies
But I've lost my way
She had rainbow eyes
Rainbow eyes
Rainbow eyes
Love should be a simple plan
A whispering on the shore
No clever words you can't defend
They lead to never more
No sighs or mysteries
She lay golden in the sun
No broken harmonies
But I've lost my way
She had rainbow eyes
Rainbow eyes
Rainbow eyes
Summer nights are colder now
They've taken down the fair
And all the lights have died somehow
Or were they ever there
No sighs or mysteries
She lay golden in the sun
No broken harmonies
But I've lost my way
She had rainbow eyes ...
She's Gone - by Black Sabbath
I've been a long long time, waiting for you
I didn't want to see you go...OH NO NO
And now it's hurting so much, what can I do?
I wanted you to be my wife
The days are passing slowly, since you've gone
Your memories are all I have ..YES I HAVE
I sit here waiting but you'll never show
Without you I can't carry on... OOH MY BABY
You said you'd always love me, all of my life
And then you said your last goodbye... YEAH GOODBYE
Why the sudden change, why all the lies,
I should have seen it in your eyes
The endless hours of heartache, waiting for you
My summer love has turned to rain...OH THE PAIN!
The silent emptiness of one sided love
My life means nothing now you're gone...OOH MY BABY!

Love Psychedelico.
"愛的魔幻"樂隊是由兩位日本青山大學畢業的學生組成,分別叫"KUMI"和"佐藤直樹"。
"愛的魔幻"樂隊以英文、日文相結合的歌詞,加上獨特的節奏感,在地下樂壇及FM電臺受到聽眾的熱烈歡迎。由於樂隊塑造的風格特殊,所以儘管是唱的是英文歌,但愛的魔幻(Love Psychedelico)卻是現在日本最炙手可熱的暢銷樂隊之一。女主唱因幼小長年居住在國外,因此沒有一般日本歌手極嚴重的日式英語口音,光這點就讓他們唱起英文歌比其他樂隊好聽得多。聆
聽Love Psychedelico,幾乎是無法不被女主唱KUMI的聲音吸引,她的聲音沒有一般日本女聲的尖細,唱腔完全向英國靠近,加上完全的英文發音,大幅跳脫了歌曲中的東洋味。音樂風格走英美硬式搖滾的口味,在旋律及吉他節奏的搭配均聽得出兩位團員深受時下英美樂隊影響。
檢視Love Psychedelico的歌詞和音樂創作,如果要賦予他們太多的音樂時代感,似乎是太過沉重的要求。儘管只是用著簡單的歌詞,適度地傳達著一點 點壓抑、一點點放肆的心情反應,能夠藉由復古曲風,加進純熟多彩的音樂元素,表現出如海灘風味、公路式輕鬆快意的單純,未嘗也不是一件好事。

Judas Priest.
Before the dawn
Before the dawn, I hear you whisper
In your sleep don’t let the morning take him
Outside the birds begin to call
As if to summon up my leaving
It’s been a lifetime since I found someone
Since I found someone who would stay
I’ve waited too long, and now you’re leaving
Oh please don’t take it all away
It’s been a lifetime since I found someone
Since I found someone who would stay
I’ve waited too long, and now you’re leaving
Oh please don’t take it all away
Before the dawn, I hear you whisper
In your sleep don’t let the morning take him
The Ripper
You’re in for surprise
You’re in for a shock
In london town streets
When there’s darkness and fog
When you least expect me
And you turn your back
I’ll attack
I smile when I’m sneaking
Through shadows by the wall
I laugh when I’m creeping
But you won’t hear me at all
All hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripper
You’ll soon shake with fear
Never knowing if I’m near
I’m sly and I’m shameless
Nocturnal and nameless
Except for the ripper
Or if you like jack the knife
Solo (glenn)
Any back alley street
Is where we’ll probably meet
Underneath a gas lamp
Where the air’s cold and damp
I’m a nasty surprise
I’m a devil in disguise
I’m a footstep at night
I’m a scream of the fright
All hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripper...the ripper....the ripper
Screaming For Vengeance
Hey listen don't yhou let 'em get your mind
Fill your brain with orders and that's not right
They're playing at a game that draws you closer
Till you're living in a world that's ruled by fear
Always takin' baby out that's o.k.
What they're givin' maybe it's out of phase with me
Told you once you're never gonna win the race
Same old no tomorrow kicked in the face
We are screaming for vengeance
The world is a manacled place
Screaming, screaming for vengeance
The world is defiled in disgrace
Tie a blindfold all around your head
Spin you round in the torture before the dread
And then you're pushed and shoved into every corner
Then they lead you out into the final slaughter
As the sweat is running down your neck
All your praying for's to stop you body breakin' up
Oh your heart is pumping gonna soon explode
Got to fight the horror of this mental load
We are screaming for vengeance
The world is a manacled place
Screaming, screaming for vengeance
The world is defiled in disgrace
So you wait it out and bide your time
Rip off that straight jacket gotta break that line
Everyone who wins in the great escape
Leaves a thousand more who suffer in their wake
I don't talk about it but that's alright
Table's turned now there's a revenge in sight
If it takes forever babe I tell ya I can wait
Send them screaming back through their hell's own gate
We are screaming for vengeance
The world is a manacled place
Screaming, screaming for vengeance
The world is defiled in disgrace
Breaking The Law
There I was completely wasted, out of work and down.
All inside it's so frustrating as I drift from town to town.
Feel as though nobody cares if I live or die,
So I might as well begin to put some action in my life
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
So much for the golden future: I can't even start!
I've had every promise broken, there's anger in my heart!
You don't know what it's like, you don't have a clue
If you did you'd find yourselves doing the same thing too
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
You don't know what it's like!
SOLO (KK)
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law

I am your man.
I am your man
If you want a lover
I'll do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
I'll wear a mask for you
If you want a partner
Take my hand
Or if you want to strike me down in anger
Here I stand
I'm your man
If you want a boxer
I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor
I'll examine every inch of you
If you want a driver
Climb inside
Or if you want to take me for a ride
You know you can
I'm your man
Ah, the moon's too bright
The chain's too tight
The beast won't go to sleep
I've been running through these promises to you
That I made and I could not keep
Ah but a man never got a woman back
Not by begging on his knees
Or I'd crawl to you baby
And I'd fall at your feet
And I'd howl at your beauty
Like a dog in heat
And I'd claw at your heart
And I'd tear at your sheet
I'd say please, please
I'm your man
And if you've got to sleep
A moment on the road
I will steer for you
And if you want to work the street alone
I'll disappear for you
If you want a father for your child
Or only want to walk with me a while
Across the sand
I'm your man
If you want a lover
I'll do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
I'll wear a mask for you
Death Of A Ladies' Man
Ah the man she wanted all her life was hanging by a thread
"I never even knew how much I wanted you," she said.
His muscles they were numbered and his style was obsolete.
"O baby, I have come too late." She knelt beside his feet.
"I'll never see a face like yours in years of men to come
I'll never see such arms again in wrestling or in love."
And all his virtues burning in the smoky Holocaust
She took unto herself most everything her lover lost
Now the master of this landscape he was standing at the view
with a sparrow of St. Francis that he was preaching to
She beckoned to the sentry of his high religious mood
She said, "I'll make a place between my legs,
I'll show you solitude."
He offered her an orgy in a many mirrored room
He promised her protection for the issue of her womb
She moved her body hard against a sharpened metal spoon
She stopped the bloody rituals of passage to the moon
She took his much admired oriental frame of mind
and the heart-of-darkness alibi his money hides behind
She took his blonde madonna and his monastery wine --
"This mental space is occupied and everything is mine."
He tried to make a final stand beside the railway track
She said, "The art of longing's over and it's never coming back."
She took his tavern parliament, his cap, his cocky dance,
she mocked his female fashions and his working-class moustache.
The last time that I saw him he was trying hard to get
a woman's education but he's not a woman yet
And the last time that I saw her she was living with some boy
who gives her soul an empty room and gives her body joy.
So the great affair is over but whoever would have guessed
it would leave us all so vacant and so deeply unimpressed
It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star
I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far.
It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star
I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far.
It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star
I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far.

89' .
千千闕歌
徐徐回望 曾屬於彼此的晚上
紅紅仍是你 贈我的心中豔陽
如流傻淚 祈望可體恤兼見諒
明晨離別你 路也許孤單得漫長
一瞬間 太多東西要講 可惜即將在各一方
只好深深把這刻盡凝望
來日縱使千千闕歌 飄于遠方我路上
來日縱使千千晚星 亮過今晚月亮
都比不起這宵美麗 亦絕不可使我更欣賞 AH..
因你今晚共我唱 臨行臨別
才頓感哀傷的漂亮 原來全是你 令我的思憶漫長
何年何月 才又可今宵一樣
停留凝望裏 讓眼睛講彼此立場
當某天 雨點輕敲你窗 當風聲吹亂你構想
可否抽空想這張舊模樣 來日縱使千千闕歌
飄于遠方我路上 來日縱使千千晚星
亮過今晚月亮 AH..怎都比不起這宵美麗
亦絕不可使我更欣賞 因今晚的我可共你唱
來日縱使千千闕歌 飄于遠方我路上
來日縱使千千晚星 亮過今晚月亮
都比不起這宵美麗 都洗不清今晚我所思
因不知哪天再共你唱
明星
當你見到天上星星
可會想起我
可會記得當年我的臉
曾為你更比星星笑得多
當你記起當年往事
你又會會如何
可會輕輕淒然嘆喟
懷念我在你心中 照耀過
我像那銀河星星
讓你默默愛過
更讓那柔柔光輝
為你解痛楚
當你見到光明星星
請你想 想起我
當你見到星河燦爛
求你在心中記住我
共同度過
垂下眼睛息了燈
回望這一段人生
望見當天今天
即使多轉變
你都也一意跟我同行
曾在我的失意天
疑問究竟為何生
但你驅使我擔起灰暗
勇敢去面對人生
若我可再活多一次都盼
再可以在路途重逢著你
共去寫一生的句子
若我可再活多一次千次
我都盼面前仍是你
我要他生都有今生的暖意
沒什麼可給你
但求憑這闕歌
謝謝你風雨裏
都不退願陪著我
暫別今天的你
但求憑我愛火
活在你心內
分開也像同度過
