Road Rage

- Album: International Velvet
- Singer: Catatonia

From the album International Velvet

If all you've got to do today is find peace of mind
Come round you can take a piece of mine
And if all you've got to do today is hesitate,
Come here, you can leave it late with me.
You could be taking it easy on yourself
You should be making it easy on yourself
Cause you and i know,
It's all over the front page, you give me road rage,
Racing through the best days,
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
If all you've got to prove today is your innocence,
Calm down, you're as guilty as can be,
If all you've got to lose alludes to yesterday,
Yesterday's through, now do anything you please.
You could be taking it easy on yourself
You should be making it easy on yourself
Cause you and i know,
It's all over the front page, you give me road rage,
Racing through the best days,
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
You're losing your mind.
You, you've been racing through the best days
You, you've been racing through the best days.
Space age, road rage, fast lane,
And if all you've got to do today is find peace of mind
Come here, you can take a piece of mine.
You could be taking it easy on yourself
You should be making it easy on yourself
Cause you and i know,
It's all over the front page, you give me road rage,
Racing through the best days,
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
But you and i know,
We all live in the space age, coming down with road rage,
Racing through the best days
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
It's not over, it's not over, it's not over,
It's not over, it's not over, it's not over, you and i know
We all live in the space age, you give me road rage,
Racing to the best days
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
Losing your mind

Handful Of Dust

- Album: Heart Like A Sky
- Singer: Spandau Ballet

From the album Heart Like A Sky

Your pressed your face against my heart
I felt that you could look right through me
We live in days that have no time
We live in times that now refuse me
And somewhere out beyond his town
There lies a world that now can turn us round
And we need it and we need it
Oh got to have some thing to believe in
I've got enough to believe in you
What can i give just to know that it's true ?
But i've gotta begin to say
Now they've taken my pride in this way.
How can you give me your love ?
I just can't give you enough
How can you give me your trust
With a handful of dust ?
I feel to thin before your eyes
I feel so naked under open skies
I once stood tall within this town
But now the time has come to bring us down.
We must have more with his power in hand
We must believe things will go as we planned
But i've gotta begin to say
Now they've taken my pride in this way.
How can you give me your love ?
I just can't give you enough
How can you give me your trust
With a handful of dust,
With a handful of dust ?
Making love through electric skies
Now i know where my fortune lies
Breathe the air and feel this land
'cause it's slipping through me
Like dust from my hand.
How can you give me your love ?
I just can't give you enough
How can you give me your trust
With a handful of dust ?
How can you give me your love ?
I just can't give you enough
How can you give me your trust
With a handful of dust ?
How can you give me your love ?
How can you give me your love ?
Now give me your love!
How can you give me your trust
With a handful of dust ?
How can you give me your love ?
Give me
How can you give me your trust
With a handful of dust ?

Hoochie

- Album: Shorty The Pimp Explicit
- Singer: Too Short

From the album Shorty The Pimp-explicit

[ intro ]
Yeah, you know, it's like, ehm - i rap
I got two platinum albums
I do a lotta concerts all over the place
I seen the groupies
They do whatever you say
When you want it, how you want it, and where you want it
But i ain't trippin
Cause these are the '90s
So when a freak say to me she loves me
I just say somethin like this

[ verse 1 ]
I say baby, why you wanna do all that?
Sleep with a brother just because i rap
You keep lookin in my eyes, and you just won't stop
All damn night you been on my jock
But i'm no fool
Cause you're sprung on my house and my swimming pool
Call me a dog, i got several freaks
When i do my shows i can't get no sleep
Cause you keep knockin at my hotel door
I was there to sleep, and can't get no more
Sleep, so why you wanna wake me up?
When i told you once i don't wanna fuck
So get on, girl, won't you mind your own
I'm tryin to sleep, so just leave me alone
Next time i see you, i do my duty
But tonight, i got another hoochie

[ chorus: d'wayne wiggins ]
Hoochie, tryin to be bourgie
But you're nothin but a groupie
Riding on my snoopy

[ verse 2 ]
I'm short dog, i wanna take you backstage
And you can read it like it's on the front page
You wanna do somebody right
For those who ain't famous - not tonight
You do the nba and the nfl
Rappers and singers as well
Keyboard players and the drummer
It's like track and field with just runners
So let me get on the phone and call all my friends
Ain't a damn thing changed but the paint on our benz
Get somethin that you can't get from good girls
Care less about a weave or a jherri curl
Cause i know something you don't know
Ain't nothin like these groupie hoes
And since tony toni ton?made the track
Get lost, fool, and tell your girl i'm back
Sing it

[ chorus ]

[ verse 3 ]
Get off my lap, cause you're gettin kinda heavy
Lookin at the bed, askin am i ready
Ready for what, sex?
Well, after that, baby, what's next?
We get a house in the suburbs, two-car garage
And every night i get a good massage?
Save that drama for later
And take this number to my skypager
Keep in touch, but don't call too much
When i come back around, you know what's up
It's time to get busy once again
Bring a few partners, cause i got friends
It's goin down like always
Young groupies in the hallways
I got the money, the fame, and all the things you like
So i see you next time when i rock the mic
You

Late

- Album: Big Choice
- Singer: Face To Face

From the album Big Choice

I don't know where i belong
All i know is that i'm wrong
I can't wait another day
Make it all just go away
I don't want it today

I don't want to be late
If you knew what i knew
You wouldn't be willing to wait
Don't be fooled by what you read
It's not the same as what you see
You're trying to sell me
And it's something for nothing
I don't want to be late

In And Around Greg Lake

- Album: Bali
- Singer: Wondermints

From the album Bali

(d. sahanaja)



Fire on fire on high

Every little thing you say

Seems to melt me away

I don't know how

Every single word you write

Comes emulsion by night



What can i do?

Been around for such a long time

What can i say?

You've been right about the wrong time



Heckle or jeckle on hyde

Sketch 'em up inside a cel

'cause we're padded so well

You've blown your lines

Hid them up inside a flame

But the cake's in the rain



What can i do?

Been around for such a long time

What can i say?

You've been right about the wrong time



Red light bed might slow me down

But i wake, mountains pop out of the cake

In and around greg lake



Challenger up in the sky

Didn't even have a chance

In a spiral we dance

And yet we fly

Wasn't even worth the wait

Job at hand, job of fate



What can i do?

Been around for such a long time

What can i say?

You've been right about the wrong time

Tears Of The Gods

- Album: Electro Glide In Blue
- Singer: Apollo 440

From the album Electro Glide In Blue

All right – oh babe
Tears

She always talked about the gods
She had a direct line with the gods
You've been selected by the gods
She told me
Ok, babe, let's make it then

(Looking for trouble? Have you got it?)

What a man has to go through for a piece of ass in a modern age it was highly ridiculous

Oh babe
Hey, what's that shit?
The tears of the gods?
The tears of the gods
Yes, the tears of the gods!

Turn Up The Radio

- Album: Die Trying
- Singer: Die Trying

From the album Die Trying

I woke up today
Nothin's changed though nothin's the same
Look out my window I should have known
Nothin' but clouds nothin' but rain
Two pots of coffee I'm on my way
Over worked and under paid
This isn't my life
This isn't who I'm supposed to be
What happened to my life
What has happened to me?

Turn the world off
Turn myself on
Turn up the radio
Turn up the radio

Turn the world off
Turn myself on
Turn up the radio
Turn up the radio
I'm not alone

A thousand faces
A thousand stories I'll never know
The freeway's flooded they're on their way
All dressed up and nowhere to go
And this isn't your life
This isn't who your supposed to be
Forget about your life
Let's just forget about everything
Turn the world off
Turn myself on
Turn up the radio
Turn up the radio

Turn the world off
Turn myself on
Turn up the radio
Turn up the radio

Just to feel good
Turn up the radio
Turn up your radio
Need to feel good
Turn up your radio

You'll be alright tonight
Just turn up and let go

You'll be alright tonight
Just turn up and let go

Just to feel good (to feel good)
Turn up your radio

Turn the world off
Turn myself on
Turn up the radio
Turn up the radio

Turn the world off
Turn myself on
Turn up the radio
Turn up the radio

Just to feel good
Turn up the radio
Turn up your radio
Need to feel good
Turn up and let it go
