They had a last supper the day of the beaching
She’s a dead ship sailing skeleton crew
The galley is empty, the stove pots are cooling
What’s left of the stew
The time is approaching, the captain moves over
The hangman steps in to do what he’s paid for
With the wind down the tide she goes proud ahead steaming
And he drives her hard into the shore
So far from the Clyde
Together we ride, we did ride
A drift to a wave from her bows to her rudder
Bravely she rises to meet with the land
Under their feet you can feel the Kings shudder
The shallow sea washes their hands
Later the captain shakes hands with the hangman
Climbs slowly down to the oily wet ground
Goes back to the car that has come here to take him
Through the graveyard back to the town
So far from the Clyde
Together we ride, we did ride
They pull out her cables and hack off her hatches
Too poor to be wasteful with pity or time
They sworn on her carcass with torches and axes
Like a whale on a bloody shoreline
Stripped of her pillars her stays and her stanchions
When it’s only her bones on the wet poison land
Steel robbers will drag her with winches and engines
Till it’s only a stain on the sea
So far from the Clyde
Together we ride, we did ride
So far from the Clyde
Together we ride, we did ride
Got a criminal record, I can’t cross state lines
First on the bad list, and you’re last on mine
Lookin for a scapegoat, long past due
Walking down the aisle, staring straight at you
I still hear him screaming “where do I hide?”
And he asks and I say “hurry inside”
He said, she said, No she don’t
Be back before morning, You know she won’t
I remember that summer, like yesterday
And I remember his mother, As he was dragged away
I still hear him screaming “where do I hide?”
And he asks and I say “hurry inside”
A whole lot of memories
Yours and not mine
And he asks and I say “hurry inside”
Got a criminal record, I can’t cross state lines
First on the bad list, and you’re last on mine
Lookin for a scapegoat, long past due
Walking down the aisle, staring straight at you
I still hear him screaming “where do I hide?”
And he asks and I say “hurry inside”
A whole lot of memories
Yours and not mine
And he asks and I say “hurry inside”
I’ve always known since I was a young boy
In this world everything’s as good as bad
Now my father told me always speak a true word
And I have to say that is the best advice I’ve had
Because something burns inside of me
It’s everything I long to be
And lies they only stop me from feelin’ free
Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing’s going to stop me
Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing’s going to stop me
Nothing’s going to stop me
Ahhh, aaaaah
I’ve never yearned for anybody’s forture
The less I have the more I am a happy man
Now my mother told me always keep your head up
Because some may graze you
Just to get what they want
And I said, “Mama, I am not afraid,”
“They will take what they will take,”
“And what would life be like,”
“Without a few mistakes?”
Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing’s going to stop me
Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing’s going to stop me oooh
Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing’s going to stop me
Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing’s going to stop me ooouuh
Aaaaah aaaaaahhhh
Aaaaah aaaaaahhhh
Now, now, now, now
Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing’s going to stop me
Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing’s going to stop me, no!
Shut the door!
While I sit in here, a sentimental face stares
And a voice says hi so
So what you gotta what you gotta disdain
C’mon let’s get high
C’mon look so, you got next oh
Walk twenty five miles oh
Well I’m bored I’m bored
C’mon let’s get high
C’mon let’s get high
C’mon let’s get high
High
Well I found a new way
I found a new way
C’mon doll and use me
I don’t need your sympathy
La, la la la la
Ulysses
I’ll find a new way
I’ll find a new way, baby
My Ulysses, My Ulysses
No, bet you are now, boy
So sinister, so sinister
Last night was wild
What’s a matter there, feeling kinda anxious?
That heart that grew cold
Yeah everyone, everybody knows it
Yeah everyone, everybody know it
Everybody knows I
La, la la la la
Ulysses
I’ll find a new way
I’ll find a new way, baby
La, la la la la
Ulysses

Well I’ll find a new way, baby oh …
Oh, then suddenly you know
You’re never going home
You’re never you’re never you’re never you’re never you’re never you’re never
You’re never going home.
Not Ulysses, baby.
No, la la la la whooo whoo
You’re not Ulysses, whooo whoo
La la la la, whooo whoo
I’ve known mornings
white as diamonds
silent from a night so cold
such a stillness
calm as the owl glides
Our lives are buried in snow
Ouuuuhh whooooa whoooooa (2x)
I was sifting through the piles
in my hand a tangled thread each patient tug upon the snarl
is a glimpse of what has been
Ouuuuhh whooooa whoooooa (2x)
Burdened bands gain strong hands
gaping holes where diamonds should be
must have been morning that stole them
a glint of white in the pocket of winter
Alela Diane Lyrics on http://www.lyrics-celebrities.anekatips.com/
Ouuuuhh whooooa whoooooa (2x)
And some hearts are ghosts settling down in dark waters
Just as silt grows heavy and drowns with the stones
Some hearts are ghosts settling down in dark waters
Just as silt grows heavy and drowns with the stones
Ouuuuhh whooooa whoooooa (2x)
I’ve known mornings
white as diamonds
silent from a night so cold
such a stillness
calm as the owl glides
our lives are buried in snow
our lives are buried in snow
I’ve had a little bit too much, much
All of the people start to rush, start to rush by
How does he twist the dance? Can’t find a drink, oh man
Where are my keys? I lost my phone, phone
What’s going on on the floor?
I love this record baby but I can’t see straight anymore
Keep it cool, what’s the name of this club?
I can’t remember but it’s alright, a-alright
Just dance, gonna be okay, da da doo-doo-mmm
Just dance, spin that record babe, da da doo-doo-mmm
Just dance, gonna be okay, d-d-d-dance
Dance, dance, just, j-j-just dance
Wish I could shut my playboy mouth, oh oh oh-oh
How’d I turn my shirt inside out? Inside outright
Control your poison babe, roses have thorns they say
And we’re all getting hosed tonight, oh oh oh-oh
What’s going on on the floor?
I love this record baby but I can’t see straight anymore
Keep it cool, what’s the name of this club?
I can’t remember but it’s alright, a-alright
Just dance, gonna be okay, da da doo-doo-mmm
Just dance, spin that record babe, da da doo-doo-mmm
Just dance, gonna be okay, d-d-d-dance
Dance, dance, just, j-j-just
When I come through on the dance floor checkin’ out that catalog
Can’t believe my eyes, so many women without a flaw
And I ain’t gon’ give it up, steady tryin’ to pick it up like a car
I’ma hit it, I’ma hit it and flex and do it until tomorr’ yeah
Shawty I can see that you got so much energy
The way you’re twirlin’ up them hips ’round and ’round
And now there’s no reason at all why you can’t leave here with me
In the meantime stay and let me watch you break it down
And dance, gonna be okay, da da doo-doo-mmm
Just dance, spin that record babe, da da doo-doo-mmm
Just dance, gonna be okay, da da doo-doo-mmm
Just dance, spin that record babe, da da doo-doo-mmm
Just dance, gonna be okay, d-d-d-dance
Dance, dance, just, j-j-just dance
Woo! Let’s go!
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic
Got my blueprint, it’s symphonic
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic
Got my blueprint electronic
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic
Got my blueprint, it’s symphonic
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic
Got my blueprint electronic
Go! Use your muscle, carve it out, work it, hustle
I got it, just stay close enough to get it
Don’t slow! Drive it, clean it, lights out, bleed it
Spend the lasto

In your pocko

Just dance, gonna be okay, da da doo-doo-mmm
Just dance, spin that record babe, da da doo-doo-mmm

[Tshawe Baqwa:]
Oooooh-
Put your loving hand out, baby
I’m beggin
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out baby
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out darlin
Ridin high, when I was king
Played it hard and fast, cause I had everything
Walked away, won me then
But easy come and easy go
And it would end
[Yosef Wolde-Mariam]
[Tshawe Baqwa:]
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out, baby
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out darlin
[Yosef Wolde-Mariam:]
I need you, (yeeah) to understand
Tried so hard
To be your man
The kind of man you want in the end
Only then can I begin to live again
[Tshawe Baqwa:]
An empty shell
I used to be
Shadow of my life
Was hangin over me
A broken man
Without a throne
Won’t even stand the devils dance
To win my soul
[Yosef Wolde-Mariam]
[Tshawe Baqwa:]
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out, baby
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out darlin
[Yosef Wolde-Mariam:]
I’m fighting hard
To hold my own
No, I just can’t make it
All alone
I’m holdin on
I can’t fall back
Now that big brass ring
Is a shade of black
[Tshawe Baqwa:]
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out, baby
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out darlin
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out, baby
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out darlin
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out, baby
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out darlin
I don’t wanna be the girl who laughs the loudest
Or the girl who never wants to be alone
I don’t wanna be that call at four o’clock in the morning
‘Cause I’m the only one you know in the world that won’t be home
Aahh, the sun is blinding
I stayed up again
Oohh, I am finding
That’s not the way I want my story to end
[Sober Lyrics On http://www.elyricsworld.com/ ]
I’m safe
Up high
Nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party’s over?
No pain
Inside
You’re my protection
But how do I feel this good sober?
I don’t wanna be the girl who has to fill the silence…
The quiet scares me ’cause it screams the truth
Please don’t tell me that we had that conversation
When I won’t remember, save your breath, ’cause what’s the use?
Aahh, the night is calling
And it whispers to me softly, “come and play”
Aahh, I am falling
And if I let myself go, I’m the only one to blame
I’m safe
Up high
Nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party’s over?
No pain
Inside
You’re like perfection
But how do I feel this good sober?
I’m comin’ down
Comin’ down
Comin’ down
Spinnin’ round
Spinnin’ round
Spinnin’ round
Looking for myself.. Sober
Comin’ down
Comin’ down
Comin’ down
Spinnin’ round
Spinnin’ round
Spinnin’ round
Looking for myself.. Sober
When it’s good, then it’s good, it’s so good, ’till it goes bad
Till you’re trying to find the you that you once had
I have heard myself cry
Never again
Broken down in agony
And just trying to find a friend
I’m safe
Up high
Nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party’s over?
No pain
Inside
You’re like perfection
But how do I feel this good sober?
I’m safe
Up high
Nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party’s over?
No pain
Inside
You’re like perfection
But how do I feel this good sober?
I wish you well
I hope you survive
I hope you live, oh baby, so I can watch you cry.
‘Cause I know in time you’ll see what you did to me
And you’ll come running back.
I’m gonna rain on your parade
No, I won’t take it again
And I’ll keep raining, raining, raining over you.
I’m gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won’t take it again.
And I’ll keep raining, raining, raining over you.
I pity the fools who bathe in you
‘Cause I know someday now, they’ll see your colours too.
And if you see a smile, besides my face, no I’m doing good.
Since you’ve been erased.
‘Cause I know in time you’ll see what you did to me
And you’ll come running back.
I’m gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won’t take it again.
And I’ll keep raining, raining, raining over you.
I’m gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won’t take it again.
And I’ll keep raining, raining, raining over you.
I’m gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won’t take it again.
And I’ll keep raining, raining, raining over you.
I’m gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won’t take it again.
And I’ll keep raining, raining, raining over you.
I’m gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won’t take it again.
And I’ll keep raining, raining, raining over you
Ooh Watching Me, Hanging By A String This Time

Oh the wind whistles down
The cold dark street tonight
And the people they were dancing to the music vibe
And the boys chase the girls with the curls in their hair
While the shy tormented youth sit way over there
And the songs they get louder
Each one better than before
And you’re singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you’re singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
So your heading down the road in your taxi for four
And you’re waiting outside Jimmy’s front door
But nobody’s in and nobody’s home ’til four
So you’re sitting there with nothing to do
Talking about Robert Riger and his motley crew
And where you’re gonna go and where you’re gonna sleep tonight
And you’re singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you’re singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you’re singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you’re singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you’re singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you’re singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
I’m not lovin’ you
Way I wanted to
What I had to do
Had to run from you
I’m in love with you
But the vibe is wrong
And that haunted me all the way home
So you never know
Never, never know
Never know enough
Til it’s over love
Til we lose control
System overload
Screamin’ no, no, no, no, no
I’m not lovin’ you
Way I wanted to
See I want to move
But can’t escape from you
So I keep it low
Keep a secret code
So everybody else don’t have to know
So keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Keepin’ your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
You lose
I’m not lovin’ you
Way I wanted to
I can’t keep my cool
So I keep it true
I got something to lose
So I gotta move
I can’t keep myself
And still keep you too
So I keep in mind
When I’m on my own
Somewhere far from home
In the danger zone
How many times did I tell you
‘fore it finally got through
You lose, you lose
I’m not lovin’ you
Way I wanted to
See I had to go
See I had to move
No more wasting time
You can’t wait for life
We’re just racing time
Where’s the finish line
So keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Keepin’ your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
You lose
I’m not lovin’ you
Way I wanted to
I bet no one knew
I got no one new
No, I said I’m through
But got love for you
But I’m not lovin’ you
Way I wanted to
Gotta keep it going
Keep the lovin’ going
Keep it on a roll
Only god knows
If I’ll be with you
Baby I’m confused
You choose, you choose
I’m not lovin’ you
Way I wanted to
Where I want to go
I don’t need you
I’ve been down this road
Too many times before
I’m not lovin’ you
Way I wanted to
So keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Keepin’ your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
You lose
Come on, come on
Put your hands into the fire
Explain, explain
As I turn and meet the power
This time, This time
Turning white and senses dire
Pull up, pull up
From one extreme to another
From the summer to the spring
From the mountain to the air
From Samaritan to sin
And it’s waiting on the end
Come on, come on
Put your hands into the fire
Explain, explain
As I turn and meet the power
This time, This time
Turning white and sense dire
Pull up, pull up
From one extreme to another
From the summer to the spring
From the mountain to the air
From Samaritan to sin
And it’s waiting on the end
and now I’m alone I’m looking out
I’m looking in, way down
The lights are dim
and now I’m alone I’m looking out
I’m looking in, way down
The lights are dim
Ooooh
Come on, come on
Put your hands into the fire
Come on, come on
