Long time, no hear...

[jazz lady]

Another oldie but goodie...

Ow
Oh yeah, get up
Ow! (Yeah)
Ow! Ow!
Well, they say it's kinda frightnin'
How this younger generation swings
You know it's more than just some new sensation
Well, the kid is into losin' sleep
And he don't come home for half the week
You know it's more than just an aggravation

And the cradle will rock
Yes the cradle, cradle will rock
And I say rock on. Uh! Rock on

And when some local kid gets down
They try an' drum him outta town
They say, "Ya coulda least faked it, boy"
Fake it, boy (Ooh, stranger, boy)
At an early age he hits the street
Winds up tired with who he meets
An' he's unemployed (Unemployed?) Ow!

And the cradle will rock. Ow!
And the cradle, the cradle will rock
An' I say rock on. Oh, say, rock on

(Guitar Solo)

Have you seen Junior's grades?
Ooh

Ow!

And when some local kid gets down
They try an' drum him outta town
They say, "Ya could've least faked it, boy. Faked it, boy"
And so an early age he hits the street
'N winds up tired with who he meets
An' he's unemployed. His folks are overjoyed

And the cradle will rock
Yes the cradle, cradle will rock
I say rock on. Hey! Rock on

Rock on. Rock on. Rock on
This ain't never been new, babe, child. Ow!
Rock on, wow! I said...
Rock on. Rock on. Oh, oh, oh
Rock on. Oh, ow, ah, ah, ah
Rock on. Rock on. Rock on

We got winners, we got losers
Chain smokers and boozers
And we got yuppies, we got bikers
We got thristy hitchhikers
And the girls next door dress up like movie stars

Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar

We got cowboys, we got truckers
Broken-hearted fools and suckers
And we got hustlers, we got fighters
Early birds and all-nighters
And the veterans talk about their battle scars

Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar

[Chorus:]
I love this bar
It's my kind of place
Just walkin' through the front door
Puts a big smile on my face
It ain't too far, come as you are
Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar

I've seen short skirts, we got high-techs
Blue-collar boys and rednecks
And we got lovers, lots of lookers
And I've even seen dancing girls and hookers
And we like to drink our beer from a mason jar

Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar
Yes I do

I like my truck (I like my truck)
I like my girlfriend (I like my girlfriend)
I like to take her out to dinner
I like a movie now and then

But I love this bar
It's my kind of place
Just trollin' around the dance floor
Puts a big smile on my face
No cover charge, come as you are
Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar
Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar

We got divorcees and a big bouncer man
An old jukebox and a real bad band
We got waitresses and we got barflies
A dumb-ass and a wise-guy
If you get too drunk just sleep out in your car

Reason number 672 why

Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar
Play it on out boys
Beer-thirty's over
Got to take it on home

Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar
I just love it

Suntaned toes ticklin the sand
cold drink chillin in my right hand
watchin you sleep in the evenin light
restin up for a long, long night
cuz when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down
we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down
over the water
everything gets hotter when the sun goes down
Yeah

all day long just takin it easy
layin in a hammock where it's nice and breezy
and sleepin off the night before
cuz when the sun goes down we'll be back for more

when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down
over the water
everything gets hotter when the sun goes down

this old guitar and my dark sunglasses
this sweet concoction is smooth as molasses
nothing to do but breathe all day
until the big moon rises and it's time to play

when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down
over the water
everything gets hotter
when the sun goes down
when the sun goes down

when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down
we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down
over the water
everything gets hotter
when the sun goes down
Yeah

When the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down
over the water
everything gets hotter
when the sun goes down

when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down
over the water
she thinks Cracker's sexy
when the sun goes down
we'll be feelin alright
when the sun sinks down
over the water
Uncle Kenny's hotter
when the sun goes down
when the sun goes down
we'll be groovin
when the sun goes down
hey Uncle Kenny
when the sun sinks down
over the water
everything gets hotter
when the sun goes down

I'd like to dedicate this song to ...

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy.
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely.
Sunshine almost always make me high

If I had a day that I could give you
I'd give to you a day just like today.
If I had a song that I could sing for you.
I'd sing a song to make you feel this way.

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy.
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely.
Sunshine almost always make me high

If I had a tale that I could tell you
I'd tell a tale sure to make you smile.
If I had a wish that I could wish for you.
I'd make a wish for sunshine all the while.

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy.
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely.
Sunshine almost always make me high

Sunshine almost all the time makes me high.
Sunshine almost always.

repost but I like it

I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In a life time

And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear

Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear

Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

Slower slower
We don't have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads

Have heart my dear
We're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for a few days
Making up for all this mess

(Instrumental)

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear, my voice
I'll be right beside you, dear

More Light for Morgie...

So many nights I sit by my window
Waiting for someone to sing me his song
So many dreams I kept deep inside me
Alone in the dark but now
You've come along

You light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song


It can't be wrong
When it feels so right
cause you
You light up my life

Some Gnarls to lose the earworm

I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space

And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Possibly

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice
Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think you're in control

Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them
Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably

People:
Trouble, oh we got trouble,
Right here in River City!
With a capital "T"
That rhymes with "P"
And that stands for Pool,
That stands for pool.
We've surely got trouble!
Right here in River City,
Right here!
Gotta figger out a way
To keep the young ones moral after school!
Trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble...

Harold:
Mothers of River City!
Heed the warning before it's too late!
Watch for the tell-tale sign of corruption!
The moment your son leaves the house,
Does he rebuckle his knickerbockers below the knee?
Is there a nicotine stain on his index finger?
A dime novel hidden in the corn crib?
Is he starting to memorize jokes from Capt.
Billy's Whiz Bang?
Are certain words creeping into his conversation?
Words like 'swell?"
And 'so's your old man?"
Well, if so my friends,
Ya got trouble,
Right here in River city!
With a capital "T"
And that rhymes with "P"
And that stands for Pool.
We've surely got trouble!
Right here in River City!
Remember the Maine, Plymouth Rock and the Golden Rule!
Oh, we've got trouble.
We're in terrible, terrible trouble.
That game with the fifteen numbered balls is a devil's tool!
Oh yes we got trouble, trouble, trouble!
With a "T"! Gotta rhyme it with "P"!
And that stands for Pool!!!

OMG Morgie! I have always said the first few lines of this song because my mom used to sing 'em to me... but don't ever recall knowing the entire song... love it!

There's more, that's just my favorite part

 

[Tonio]

Once in every show
There comes a song like this
It starts off soft and low
And ends up with a kiss
Oh where is the song
That goes like this?
Where is it? Where? Where?

A sentimental song
That casts a magic spell
They all will hum along
We'll overact like hell
For this is the song that goes like this
Yes it is! Yes it is!

Now we can go straight
Right down the middle eight
A bridge that is too far for me

I'll sing it in your face
While we both embrace
And then
We change
The key

Now we're into E!
*hem* That's awfully high for me
But as everyone can see
We should have stayed in D
For this is our song that goes like this!

I'm feeling very proud
You're singing far too loud
That's the way that this song goes
You're standing on my toes
Singing our song that goes like this!

I can't believe there's more
It's far too long, I'm sure
That's the trouble with this song
It goes on and on and on
For this is our song that is too long!

We'll be singing this 'til dawn
You'll wish that you weren't born
Let's stop this damn refrain
Before we go insane
For this is our song that ends like this!

 

[Tonio]

What ever happened to my part?
It was exciting at the start.
Now we're halfway through Act 2
And I've had nothing yet to do.

I've been offstage for far too long
It's ages since I had a song.
This is one unhappy diva
The producer's have deceived her.
There is nothing I can sing from my heart.
Whatever happened to my part?

I am sick of my career
Always starting second gear
Up to here, with frustration and with fears.
I've no Grammy, no rewards,
I've no Tony Awards,
I'm constantly replaced with Britney Spears

Whatever happened to my show?
I was a hit, now I don't know.
I'm with a bunch of British knights,
Prancing 'round in woolly tights.

I might as well go to the pub
They've been out searching for a shrub
Out shopping for a bush
Well, they can kiss my tush
It seems to me they've really lost the plot

Whatever happened to my
I'll call my agent, dammit
Whatever happened to my
Not yours, not yours,
But my,
Part!

 

[Tonio]

The lights in the harbor
Don't shine for me
I'm like a lost ship adrift on the sea

Sea of heartbreak
Lost love and loneliness
Memories of your caress
So divine how I wish you were mine
Again my dear
I am on this sea of tears
Sea of heartbreak

How did I lose you
Oh where did I fail
Why did you leave me
Always to sail

Sea of heartbreak
Lost love and loneliness
Memories of your caress
So divine how I wish you were mine
Again my dear
I am on this sea of tears
Sea of heartbreak

Oh what I'd give to sail back to shore
Back to your arms once more

Come to my rescue
Come here to me
Take me and keep me
Away from the sea

Sea of heartbreak
Lost love and loneliness
Memories of your caress
So divine how I wish you were mine
Again my dear
I am on this sea of tears
Sea of heartbreak

Tonio, did you go see "Spamalot" too? RoseRed and I saw it recently and absolutely LOVED it.

 

[jackoholic]

I am cleaning house on my computer and got in the mood to hear, and don't make fun, Duran Duran.

 

[Tonio]

Tonio, did you go see "Spamalot" too? RoseRed and I saw it recently and absolutely LOVED it.

It was hilarious. I liked that the show didn't just copy the movie, but added gags about Broadway conventions, the same way that the original Python series would send up TV conventions. I didn't see many hardcore Python fans at the show, maybe because I saw it on the last day of its D.C. run.

I should have gone and seen it. I'll have to catch it another time.

I understand that it's coming to Baltimore next spring.
