    When I first heard my most favorite singer James Otto sing the line, "She just left me..." at the beginning of his song named "Dam* Right",.....I knew that I was listening to the most precious male voice that has ever hit my ear. :):):)

    God bless you and him always!!! :):):)

    P.S. Go here to check out this heartfelt performance from him that makes me melt like an ice cream on the 4th of July, its the #5 Muzik Mafia TV clip. :):):)

    The kettle's on, the sun has gone
    another day
    She offers me Tibetan tea on a flower tray
    She's at the door, she wants to score
    She dearly needs to say

    I loved you a long time ago
    Where the winds own forget-me-nots blow
    But I just couldn't let myself go
    not knowing what on earth there was to know.

    But I wish that I had 'cause I' feeling so sad
    That I never had one of your children

    And across the room inside a tomb
    a chance is waxed and wanes
    The night is young, why are we so hung up
    in each others chains
    I must take her and I must make her
    while the dove domains

    And feel the juice run as she flies
    run my winds under her sighs
    as the flames of eternity rise
    to lick us with the first born lash of dawn

    Oh really my dear I can't see what we fear
    Sat here with ourselves in between us

    And at the door we can't say more
    than just another day
    and without a sound
    I turn around
    and I walk away.

    That's right, you knows what I'm saying
    Your mother's offered me the goods, I'm not paying.
    It started as a laugh, as a bit of a joke
    Something funny to say when I was having a smoke.
    I first heard off this bloke, this f**ing rumour going round
    Your mother's reputation it's not sound
    She's saving up the pennies hoping they'd turn into pounds
    To have an operation to swap her gender around.

    It's a shock to me and it's a shock to you
    Your mother's got a beard, sandals and a penis too
    It don't look right see, when she's walking down the street
    To see her ball bag jiggin' to the beat of her feet

    Your mother's got a penis
    Your mother's got a penis
    Your mother's got a penis
    That's right
    Your mother's got a penis

    In internet rooms and computer mainframes
    There's loads of emails but your mother's blue veins.
    Not the ones in her legs or the backs of her arms
    But the ones in her member hidden in her gown.
    She walks around proud, with a short dress on
    Which sometimes exposes the tip of her dong.
    Often it's dripping, sometimes it's dry
    No matter when I see her there's a tear in my eye.
    I thought I had to tell you, had to put it in a letter
    But I thought f**k that I'd write a song in much better.
    The only way to do it, to really let you know
    I could prove it because I gave it a blow.
    It was purely accidently because she got me really drunk
    And she made me kiss her elephant trunk.
    You know why? That's right
    Your mother got a penis. :cool:

    Neil Young - Keep on rockin in the free world,

    I see a woman in the night
    With a baby in her hand
    Under an old street light
    Near a garbage can
    Now she puts the kid away,
    and she's gone to get a hit
    She hates her life,
    and what she's done to it
    There's one more kid
    that will never go to school
    Never get to fall in love,
    never get to be cool.

    I love the thought of coming home to you, even if I know we can't make it,
    Yes I love the thought of giving hope to you, just a little ray of light shinin' through (Simply Red - Fairground)


    Holding back the years
    Thinking of the fear I've had so long
    When somebody hears
    Listen to the fear that's gone
    Strangled by the wishes of pater
    Hoping for the arms of mater
    Get to me the sooner or later

    Holding back the years
    Chance for me to escape from all I've known
    Holding back the tears
    Cause nothing here has grown
    I've wasted all my tears
    Wasted all those years
    And nothing had the chance to be good
    Nothing ever could yeah

    I'll keep holding on
    I'll keep holding on
    I'll keep holding on
    I'll keep holding on
    So tight

    I've wasted all my tears
    Wasted all of those years
    And nothing had the chance to be good
    Cause nothing ever could oh yeah (Holding Back the Years - Simply Red)


    What's worth nothing else but love
    Take a walk down any street now
    Every one of us in our own little world
    Looking for a heart with whom to beat now

    What's worth nothing else but love
    I'm prepared to take the heat now
    What's worth more than anything else at all
    To keep you firmly on your feet now

    So fake cool image should be over
    'Cause I long for a feeling of home
    Real life, depicted in song
    A loving memory
    After long, home is a place where I yearn to belong

    Where the land meets the sea
    She'll be smiling so sweetly now
    I hope that she'll be here much longer than I will
    My heart loves her with every beat now

    So fake cool image should be over
    'Cause I long for a feeling of home
    Real life, depicted in song
    A loving memory
    After long, home is a place where I yearn to belong (Simply Red - Home)


    As you can tell, I'm a bit of Simply Red fan. :D To be honest, I don't think there's one song of theirs I really don't like. (I find Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye a little dreary though)

    EDIT: More lyrics:
    Come to my aid, you're sweet as everything
    Come to my aid, I'd give you anything
    I feel so betrayed by a people I love
    Come to my aid, it's you I'm thinking of

    Prouder than wild, sad enough to sing
    Come to my aid and care for social living

    [Chorus:]
    Why are we liable to die for survival
    Why is our nation divided?
    Come to my aid [repeat]

    In the poverty stakes see just what it means
    When welfare decimates you'd better care
    About your fellow people (Come to My Aid - yes, Simply Red again! :D) A political message that still rings true now. Anyway, sorry for the long post! :)

    I Like Driving In My Car...Even With A Flat Ty-ar... :D

    Yes, that's another one of my favourites. I like a lot of Madness' stuff actually. Great band who still have it today.

    More of my favourite lyrics:

    Received a letter just the other day
    Don't seem they wanna know you no more
    They've laid it down given you their score
    Within the first two lines it bluntly read

    You're not to come and see us no more
    Keep away from our door
    Don't come 'round here no more
    What on earth did you do that for?

    Our aunt, she don't wanna know she says
    "What will the neighbors think, they'll think
    We don't, that's what they'll think, we don't"
    But I will, 'cause I know they think I don't

    Our uncle he don't wanna know he says
    "We are a disgrace to the human race", he says
    "How can you show your face
    When you're a disgrace to the human race?"

    No commitment, you're an embarrassment
    Yes, an embarrassment, a living endorsement
    The intention that you have booked
    Was an intention that was overlooked

    They say, "Stay away
    Don't want you home today
    Keep away from our door
    Don't come 'round here no more"

    Our dad, don't wanna know he says
    "This is a serious matter
    Too late to reconsider
    No one's gonna wanna know ya"

    Our mum, she don't wanna know, she says
    "I'm feelin' twice as old", she says
    "Thought she had a head on her shoulder
    'Cause I'm feelin' twice as older
    I'm feelin' twice as older"

    (Embrassment - Madness)

    There you were freaking out,
    Trying to get your head around the fact that me and you and love is dead
    See how I'm trippin out
    'cause you can't decide what you really want from me

    Why does it have to be like this?
    I can never tell
    You make me love you, love you baby
    With a little L

    There you were shouting out
    Cranking up your altercations, getting upset in your desperation
    Screaming and hollering
    How could this love become so paper thin?

    You're playing so hard to get
    You're making me sweat just to hold your attention
    I can't give you nothing more
    If you ain't givin' nothing to me

    (Little L - Jamiroquai)


    Little darlin' don't you see the sun is shining
    just for you, only today
    If you hurry you can get a ray on you, come with me, just to play
    Like every humming bird and bumblebee
    Every sunflower, cloud and every tree
    I feel so much a part of this
    Nature's got me high and it's beautiful
    I'm with this deep eternal universe
    From death until rebirth

    This corner of the earth is like me in many ways
    I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play
    On the face of this I'm blessed
    When the sunlight comes for free
    I know this corner of the earth it smiles at me
    So inspired of that there's nothing left to do or say
    Think I'll dream, 'til the stars shine

    The wind it whispers and the clouds don't seem to care
    And I know inside, that it's all mine
    It's the chorus of the breakin' dawn
    The mist that comes before the sun is born
    To a hazy afternoon in May
    Nature's got me high and it's so beautiful
    I'm with this deep eternal universe from death until rebirth
    (Corner of the Earth - Jamiroquai)

    Love Is The Law lyrics
    We lived in a dogfish, egg case
    You could barely call it home
    Sorry, little lot no roof on top
    But the fish left us alone
    Try a little more said the girl next door
    It's time to roam

    Mad Lizzy Crumbs, blind cobblers thumbs
    Were a sight to behold
    She was a rum old slapper and we always
    Tried to get her pants off when she phoned
    Left her cap by the sink, it's not what you think
    Oh, take me home

    Now, we know where we're going, baby
    We can lay back and enjoy the ride
    Take in the sights and drown in our senses
    Love is the law, so, take me deep inside

    Strap on Sally chased us down the alley
    We feared for our behinds
    Oasis was a shop with shoes so hot
    They were sure to blow your minds
    Running so fast, I can take the past
    Oh, take home

    Now, we know where we're going, baby
    We can lay back and enjoy the ride
    Take in the sights and drown in our senses
    Love is the law, so, take me deep inside

    These waters run deep, it's clear my little one
    Blue, velvet, star sky, not a sound
    The light in your eyes, the smile on your ruby lips
    Tells me my lost soul is found

    Now, we know where we're going, baby
    We can lay back and enjoy the ride
    Take in the sights and drown in our senses
    Love is the law, so, take me deep inside
