Show me the power child I’d like to say that I’m down on my knees today
Yeah it gives me butterflies gives me away
Till I’m up on my feet again
Oh I’m feeling
Oh I’m feeling
Outshined Outshined Outshined Outshined
But I am not your savior I am just as fucked as you
I know your life is empty
And you hate to face this world alone
So you’re searching for an angel
Someone who can make you whole
I cannot save you
I can’t even save myself
So just save yourself
I know that you’ve been damaged
Your soul has suffered such abuse
But I am not your savior
I am just as fucked as you
I am just as fucked as you
I cannot save you
I can’t even save myself
So just save yourself
Please don’t take pity on me
Please don’t take pity on me
Please don’t take pity on me
Please don’t take pity on me
My life has been a nightmare
My soul is fractured to the bone
And if I must be lonely, I think I’d rather be alone
I think I’d rather be alone
I met my maker I made him cry
Back into the hole where I was born
The sun in the sky never raised an eye to me
The blood on the tracks, and they must be mine
The fool on the hill, and I feel fine
Don’t look back ’cause you know what you might see
I think I know, but I don’t know why
The questions are the answers you might need
Coming in a mess, going out in style
I ain’t good-looking, but I’m someone’s child
No one can give me the air that’s mine to breathe
I made him cry
And on my shoulder he asked me why
His people won’t fly through the storm
I said, “Listen up man, they don’t even know you’re born”
D’you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah
All my people right here, right now
D’you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah
All my people right here, right now
D’you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
these are crazy days but make me shine, time keeps rolling by
and all around the world
you gotta spread the word
tell ’em what you heard
you know it’s gonna be OK
it’s gonna be OK
it’s gonna be OK
it’s gonna be OK
it’s gonna be OK
oh my my, oh hell yes
God Bless Us Everyone
We’re a broken people living under loaded gun
And it can’t be outfought
It can’t be outdone
It can’t be outmatched
It can’t be outrun
No!
driving faster in my car – these conversations kill
too much walking shoes worn thin
too much trippin’ and my soul’s worn thin
conversations kill
conversations kill
conversations kill
I wanna taste love and pain
Rather go out in a blaze of glory
I can’t hear you, I don’t fear you
Dodging bullets with your broken past
I can’t hear you, I don’t fear you now
Wrapped in your regret
What a waste of blood and sweat
Oh oh oh
Wanna feel pride and shame
I don’t wanna take my time
Don’t wanna waste one line
I wanna live better days
Never look back and say
Could have been me
It could have been me
Yeah
I’d rather listen to the silence telling me
I can’t hear you, I won’t fear you
The thought of work is getting my skin crawling
I can’t fear you, I don’t hear you now
Wrapped in your regret
What a waste of blood and sweat
Oh oh oh
Crazy Janey and her mission man
Were back in the alley tradin’ hands
*my new, favourite version (live, Barcelona; 2002)!!
who remembers 10cc?
ooh you’ve got a way
ooh you had me crawling up the wall
like walking in the rain and the snow
when there’s nowhere to go
the things we do for love
good people, weekend!
’cause you gotta make the best of life while you’re young!
Don’t want no short people ’round here
And little eyes
And they walk around
Tellin’ great big lies
They got little noses
And tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little feet
Don’t want no short people
Don’t want no short people
Round here
As you and I
(A fool such as I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(It’s a wonderful world)
Short people got nobody
Short people got nobody
To love
And they stand so low
You got to pick ’em up
Just to say hello
They got little cars
That got beep, beep, beep
They got little voices
Goin’ peep, peep, peep
They got grubby little fingers
And dirty little minds
They’re gonna get you every time
Well, I don’t want no short people
Don’t want no short people
Don’t want no short people
‘Round here
ain’t found a way to kill me yet
seems every path leads me to nowhere
yeah they come to snuff the rooster oh yeah
yeah here come the rooster yeah
you know he ain’t gonna die
no no no ya know he ain’t gonna die
someday we’ll get it together and we’ll get it all done
someday when your head is much lighter
someday we’ll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
someday when the world is much brighter
I’ve been smoking on the peace pipe
I’ve been staring into headlights
Swallow me whole, finding my peace of mind
I’m just trying to seize the moment
Trying to love the little things, even if they’re hard to love
A monument to love unspoken
Carved into stone, unwilling to come undone
Another breath and I’m up another level
It feels good to be up above the clouds
It feels good for the first time in a long time now
I was lying there in rapture on the bathroom floor
Moving hotel to hotel
Out on the road, no idea really what’s in store
Light it up just like a flashlight
Let it shine, let it rise just like a foreign sun
Turn it over and it’s capsized
It’s finally done, the battle’s lost yet I feel I’ve won
Another breath and I’m up another level
It feels good to be up above the clouds
It feels good for the first time in a long time now
It feels good to be me
Sending my love, what a wonderful feeling
What comes next, I see a light
I’m along for the ride as I’m taking flight
Sending my love, what a wonderful feeling
What comes next, I see a light
I’m along for the ride as I’m taking flight
Another breath and I’m up another level
It feels good to be up above the clouds
It feels good for the first time in a long time now
It feels good for the first time in a while I’m free
Sending my love, what a wonderful feeling
What comes next, I see a light
I’m along for the ride as I’m taking flight
Fuck it all I came from nothing
You are my fuse
I’m something from nothing
You are my fuse
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
It goes oh oh oh
All rise!
I need to make some money, need to make money
woo woo make money
I need to some money, need to make money
woo woo
I don’t own the clothes I’m wearing
And the road goes on forever
And I’ve got one more silver dollar
But I’m not gonna let ’em catch me no
Not gonna let them catch the Midnight Rider
I, I’m a new day rising
I’m a brand new sky
To hang the stars upon tonight
