Broke-Down Palace - The Grateful DeadFare you well my honeyFare you well my only true oneAll the birds that were singingHave flown except you aloneGoin to leave this Broke-down

PalaceOn my hands and my knees I

will roll roll rollMake myself a bed by the

watersideIn my time - in my time - I will roll roll roll

In a bed, in a bed by the waterside I will lay my head

Listen to the river sing sweet songsto rock my soul

River gonna take me

Sing me sweet and sleepySing me sweet and sleepyall the

way back back homeIt's a far gone lullabysung many

years agoMama, Mama, many worlds I've

comesince I first left homeGoin’ home, goin’ homeby the

waterside I will rest my bonesListen to the river sing sweet

songsto rock my soulGoin’ to plant a weeping willowOn the banks green edge it will

grow grow growSing a lullaby beside the water

Tonight - Elton JohnTonightDo we have to fight againTonightI just want to go to sleepTurn out the lightBut you want to carry grudgesNine times out of tenI see the storm approachingLong before the rain starts fallingTonightDoes it have to be the old thingTonightIt's late, too lateTo chase the rainbow that you're

after

I'd like to find a compromiseAnd place it in your handsMy eyes are blind, my ears

can't hearAnd i cannot find the timeTonightJust let the curtains close in

silenceTonightWhy not approach with less

defianceThe man who'd love to see you

smileWho'd love to see you smileTonight

Piano Man - Billy JoelIt's nine o'clock on a SaturdayThe regular crowd shuffles inThere's an old man sitting next to

meMaking love to his tonic and ginHe says, "Son can you play me a

memoryI'm not really sure how it goesBut it's sad and it's sweetAnd I knew it completeWhen I wore a younger man's

clothes"Sing us a song you're the piano manSing us a song tonightWell we're all in the mood for a

melodyAnd you've got us feeling alright

Now John at the bar is a friend of mineHe gets me my drinks for freeAnd he's quick with a joke or to light

up your smokeBut there's someplace that he'd

rather beHe says, "Bill, I believe this is killing

me"As a smile ran away from his face"Well, I'm sure that I could be a movie

starIf I could get out of this place"Now Paul is a real estate novelistWho never had time for a wifeAnd he's talking with Davy, who's still in the NavyAnd probably will be for life.

Lose Yourself - EminemHis palms are sweaty, knees weak,

arms are heavy There's vomit on his sweater already,

mom's spaghettiHe's nervous, but on the surface he

looks calm and ready To drop bombs, but he keeps on

forgettingWhat he wrote down, the whole

crowd goes so loud He opens his mouth, but the words

won't come outHe's chokin’, how everybody's

chokin’ nowThe clock's run out, time's up over,

bloah!Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravityOh, there goes Rabbit, he chokedHe's so mad, but he won't give up

that easy

No, he won't have it , he knows his whole back city's ropes

It don't matter, he's dopeHe knows that, but he's brokeHe's so stacked that he knows When he goes back to his mobile

home, that's when it'sBack to the lab again yoThis whole rap city He better go capture this moment

and hope it don't pass himYou better lose yourself in the

music, the moment You own it, you better never let it

go You only get one shot, do not miss

your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a

lifetime.

Holiday - Green DayHear the sound of the falling rain Coming down like an Armageddon flame (Hey!)Ashamed The ones who die without a name Hear the dogs howlin' out of key To a hymn called Faith and Misery (Hey!) And plead, the company lost the war

today I beg to dream and differ from the

hollow lies This is the dawning of the rest of our

lives On holiday Hear the drum pounding out of time Another protestor has crossed the line

(Hey!)

To find, the money's on the other side

Can I get another Amen (Amen!)

There's a flag wrapped around the score of men (Hey!)

A gag, A plastic bag on a monumentI beg to dream and differ from

the hollow lies This is the dawning of the rest

of our lives On holiday.

The Thunder Rolls - Garth Brooks

Three thirty in the morning Not a soul insight The city's lookin' like a ghost town On a moonless summer night Raindrops on the windshield There's a storm moving in He's headin' back from

somewhere That he never should have been And the thunder rolls And the thunder rolls Every light is burnin' In a house across town She's pacin' by the telephone In her faded flannel gown Askin' for miracle Hopin' she's not right

Prayin' it's the weather That's kept him out all night And the thunder rolls And the thunder rolls The thunder rolls And the lightnin' strikes Another love grows cold On a sleepless night As the storm blows on Out of control Deep in her heart The thunder rolls She's waitin' by the window When he pulls into the drive She rushes out to hold him Thankful he's alive

Come Together - The BeatlesHere come old flat top

He come groovin' up slowly He got joojoo eyeballs He want holy rollers He got hair down to his knees Got to be a joker He just do what he please He wear no shoeshine He got toe jam football He got monkey finger He shoot Coca Cola He say I know you, you know me One thing I can tell you is You got to be free Come together, right now Over me He bag production

He got walrus gumboot He got Ono sideboard He one spinal cracker He got feet down below his knees Hold you in his armchair You can feel his disease Come together, right now Over me He roller coaster He got early warning He got muddy water He one Mojo filter He say one and one and one is three Got to be good looking 'cause he's so

hard to see Come together right now Over me
