CALIFORNIA. LANA DEL REY

 

(One, two, three, oh)

You don't ever have to be stronger than you really are
When you're lying in my arms
Baby, you don't ever have to
Go faster than your fastest pace or faster than my fastest cars

I shouldn't have done it but I read it in your letter
You said to a friend that you wish you were doing better
I wanted to reach out but I never said a thing
I shouldn't have done it but I read it in your letter
You said to a friend that you wish you were doing better
I wanted to call you but I didn't say a thing
(Two, three, four)

Ooh, I'll pick you up
If you come back to America, just hit me up
'Cause this is crazy love
I'll catch you on the flipside
If you come back to California
You should just hit me up
We'll do whatever you want, travel wherever how far
We'll hit up all the old places
We'll have a party, we'll dance till dawn
I'll pick up all of your Vogues and all of your Rolling Stones
Your favorite liquor off the top-shelf
I'll throw a party, all night long

You don't ever have to be stronger than you really are
When you're lying in my arms
And honey, you don't ever have to act cooler than you think you should
You're brighter than the brightest stars

You're scared to win, scared to lose
I've heard the war was over if you really choose
The one in and around you
You hate the heat, you got the blues
You're changing like the weather, oh, that's so like you
The Santa Ana moves you
(Two, three, four)

Ooh, I'll pick you up
If you come back to America, just hit me up
'Cause this is crazy love
I'll catch you on the flipside
If you come back to California
You should just hit me up
We'll do whatever you want, travel wherever, how far
We'll hit up all the old places
We'll have a party, we dance till dawn
I'll pick up all of your Vogues and all of your Rolling Stones
Your favorite liquor off the top-shelf
I'll throw a party, all night long

Ooh, I'll pick you up
If you come back to America, just hit me up
'Cause this is crazy love
I'll catch you on the flipside
If you come back to California
You should just hit me up

Cause I lost my job two weeks before Christmas
And I talked to Jesus at the sewer
And the Pope said it was none of his God-damned business
While the rain drank champagne
 
My Estonian Archangel came and got me wasted
Cause the sweetest kiss I ever got is the one I've never tasted
Oh but they'll take their bonus pay to Molly McDonald,
Neon ladies, beauty is that which obeys, is bought or borrowed
 
Cause my heart's become a crooked hotel full of rumours
But it's I who pays the rent for these fingered-face out-of-tuners
And I make 16 solid half hour friendships every evening
Cause your queen of hearts who is half a stone
And likes to laugh alone is always threatening you with leaving
Oh but they play those token games on Willy Thompson
And give a medal to replace the son of Mrs. Annie Johnson
 
Cause they told me everybody's got to pay their dues
And I explained that I had overpaid them
So overdued I went to the company store
And the clerk there said that they had just been invaded
So I set sail in a teardrop and escaped beneath the doorsill
 
Cause the smell of her perfume echoes in my head still
Cause I see my people trying to drown the sun
In weekends of whiskey sours
Cause how many times can you wake up in this comic book and plant flowers?

For A Spanish Guitar ~ Gene Clark (1971)

 

The dissonant bells of the sea
Who are ringing the rhymes of the deep
As they sing of the ages asleep
Not so near or so far
 
And the old masters wind of the waves
Sped forth for the free men and slaves
Whispers of secrets it saves
And about whom they are
 
And the workings of sunshine and rain
And the visions they paint that remain
Pulsate from my soul through my brain
In a Spanish guitar
 
The beggar whom sits in the street
On his miserable throne of defeat
Envisions no wealth there to meet
Thinking nowhere is far
 
And the laughter of children employed
By the fantasies not yet destroyed
By the dogmas of those they avoid
Knowing not what they are
 
And the right and the wrong and insane
And the answers they cannot explain
Pulsate from my soul through my brain
In a Spanish guitar
 
To play on a Spanish guitar
With the sun shining down where you are
Skipping and singing a bar
From the music around
 
Just to laugh through the columns of trees
To soar like a seagull in breeze
To stand in the rain if you please
Or to never be found

With Tomorrow ~ Gene Clark/Jesse Ed Davis (1971)

 

It was more like a dream than reality
I must have thought it was a dream while she was here with me
When she was near I didn't think she would leave
When she was gone it was too much to believe
 

So with tomorrow I will borrow
Another moment of joy and sorrow
And another dream and another ~ with tomorrow
 

So if there some day won't be time just to look behind
There won't be reasons, no descriptions for my place and mind
There was so much I was told that was not real
So many things that I could not taste but I could feel
 

So with tomorrow I will borrow
Another moment of joy and sorrow
And another dream and another ~ with tomorrow

The scientist- Coldplay

 

 Come up to meet you
Tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart

Tell me your secrets
And ask me your questions
Oh let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails
Heads on a science apart
Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh take me back to the start
I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me
Come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start

Because Of You ~ Gene Clark (1971)

 

You toss your head and turn your eyes when storm clouds brew

You look around to quick relate to a good time you knew

Then the dark clouds break away and a rainbow comes on through

The sun I see only shines for me because of you

 

Before this time we both saw blind in spite of fact

We lost our place and made no haste to make contact

Now by what we gain the taste of one and two

I'm satisfied beneath my pride because of you

 

And now the worth of living wealth is more in the end

And now the price of simple things is not so much to spend

So close your eyes and pick a place to fly away

And think of reasons why this warmth is here to stay

 

Then the dark clouds break away and a rainbow comes on through

The sun I see only shines for me because of you

Yes, the sun I see only shines for me because of you

Sweet Adrienne ~ Gene Clark (1970)


Sweet Adrienne
You say you always try to understand
And why do people all around you criticize
When it's there in your eyes
Not in your hand

 

You look around
You say that love has only let you down
And that the words you hear are either truth or lies
And you need no disguise
Sweet Adrienne

 

And so you take them where the early morning finds them
And you delight in what you find there for a while
And then you leave them just the same way that you found them
But you swear you always leave them with a smile

Sweet Adrienne

 

You say your love is there for any man
And that you know now that man's truth is in his lies
And so you sympathize
Sweet Adrienne

Sweet Adrienne

Walking Through This Lifetime ~ Gene Clark (1970)

 

Walking through this world
Looking for the reasons
Why I find myself in sorrow

 

Watching lonely people
Lift their heads in searching
For some time that they can borrow

 

Wondering if freedom is reality
Or is today just passing by the way
Will another lifetime be free from pain
For is this how it's meant to stay

 

Walking through this lifetime
Passing souls and glances
Leaving now until the next time

 

All the eyes are hurried
Looking for somebody
Who will see the same thing at the same time

 

Trusting that tomorrow will be sure
And tomorrow there will surely be a way
But seeing another who is seeing the same
The absolute must be today

 

Walking through collections
Of powers passing fancies
Sometimes I think there's nothing but believing

 

Then there's someone gentle
That makes you feel forever
And then they tell you that they're leaving

 

And we speak of times and places we have been
I wonder if there's ever been a nether
Endings and beginnings without and within
In time there is no measure to forever

Angelene ~ PJ Harvey (1988)
 
My first name Angelene
Prettiest mess you've ever seen
Love for money is my sin
Any man calls, I let him in
 
Rose is my color, and white
Pretty mouth and green my eyes
I see men come and go
But there'll be one who will collect my soul and come for me
 
Two-thousand miles away
He walks upon the coast
Two-thousand miles away
It lays open like a road
 
Dear God, life ain't kind
People getting born and dying
But I've heard there's joy untold
Lays on that open road in front of me
 
Two-thousand miles away
He walks upon the coast
Two-thousand miles away
It lays open like a road
It seems so far away
He walks upon that coast
It seems so far away
I see men come and go
Two-thousand miles until
I reach that open road

My first name Angelene

Wind-Up ~ Ian Anderson (1971)

 

When I was young and they packed me off to school
and they taught me how not to play the game
I didn't mind if they groomed me for success
or if they said that I was just a fool

 

So I left there in the morning with their God tucked underneath my arm
Their half-assed smiles and the book of rules

 

And I asked this God a question and by way of firm reply
He said, "I'm not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays."

 

So to my old headmaster and to anyone who cares,
before I'm through I'd like to say my prayers.

 

I don't believe you, you have the whole damn thing all wrong
He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays

 

So you can excommunicate me on my way to Sunday school
and have all your bishops harmonize these lines

 

How do you dare tell me that I'm my father's son
when that was just an accident of birth?

 

I'd rather look around me, compose a better song
'cause that's the honest measure of my worth

 

In your pomp and all your glory you're a poorer man than me
as you lick the boots of death born out of fear

Maybe I Will ~ Rory Gallagher (1971)

 

Running through a pool of rain
I think I'll do it one more time again
I hope I always feel this way
Maybe I will

 

Searching for a piece of ground
Where I can lay my body down
With the earth for a pillow under my head

 

Wake up in the morning
It's a brand new day
And though it seems the same
It's different from yesterday
Then I read the leaves
And put my cup away

 

Running down a country lane
Looking on a field of grain
Just to see you smile
Makes me feel alive again

 

Opening another door
I'll see what I have not seen before
Maybe I'll find what I'm looking for

Maybe I will

 

Running through a pool of rain
I think I'll do it one more time again
I hope I always feel this way
Maybe I will

 

Maybe I will

Girl, it's been a long time that we've been apart
Much too long for a man who needs love
I miss you since I've been away
Babe, it wasn't easy to leave you alone
It's getting harder each time that I go
If I had the choice, I would stay
There's no one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just want to be loved by you
No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just want to be loved by you
Girl, there are really no words strong enough
To describe all my longing for love
I don't want my feelings restrained
Oh babe, I just need you like never before
I just imagine you'd come through this door
You'd take all my sorrow away
There's no one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just want to be loved by you
No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just want to be loved by you
No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just want to be loved by you
No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just want to be loved by you

Sleep together- Garbage
 
I got you crawling up a mountain
Hanging round my neck
I got you twisted round my finger
Crawling round my legs
The emptiness, the crazyness
Satisfy this hungriness
Darling, how would it feel?
If we sleep together, will you like me better
If we come together, we'll go down forever
If we sleep together, will I like you better
If we come together, prove it now or never
Make me a pretty person
Make me feel like I belong
Make me hard and make me happy
Make me beautiful
The emptiness, the crazyness
Satisfy this hungriness
Darling, how would it feel?
If we sleep together, will you like me better
If we come together, we'll go down forever
If we sleep together, will I like you better
If we come together, prove it now or never
Nothing satisfies me baby
(If we sleep together) I wear something pretty baby
(If we sleep together) Give me what I crave now baby
(If we sleep together) Save the rest for later baby
(If we sleep together) You will drive me crazy baby
(If we sleep together) Save this one for you my baby
If we sleep together (x2)

Vincent - Don McLean (1971)
 
Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and grey
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
 
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land
 
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
 
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
 
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
 
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
 
For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night
You took your life, as lovers often do
But I could have told you, Vincent
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you
 
Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
 
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in the ragged clothes
The silver thorn, a bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
 
Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will

Teenage dream - Katy Perry

 

You think I'm pretty
Without any make-up on
You think I'm funny
When I tell the punch line wrong
I know you get me
So I'll let my walls come down, down
Before you met me
I was alright
But things were kinda heavy
You brought me to life
Now every February
You'll be my valentine, valentine
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I
We'll be young forever
You make me feel like I'm living a, teenage, dream
The way you turn me on
I, can't, sleep
Let's runaway
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My, heart, stops
When you look at me
Just, one, touch
Now baby I believe
This, is, real
So take a chance
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
We drove to Cali
And got drunk on the beach
Got a motel and
Built a fort out of sheets
I finally found you
My missing puzzle piece
I'm complete
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I
We'll be young forever
You make me feel like I'm living a, teenage, dream
The way you turn me on
I, can't, sleep
Let's runaway
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My, heart, stops
When you look at me
Just, one, touch
Now baby I believe
This, is, real
So take a chance
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
I'ma get your heart racing
In my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Let you put your hands on me
In my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
You, make, me feel like I'm living a, teenage, dream
The way you turn me on
I, can't, sleep
Let's runaway
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My, heart, stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This, is, real
So take a chance
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
I'ma get your heart racing
In my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Let you put your hands on me
In my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight (tonight, tonight, tonight)

Dont think of me- Dido

So you're with her -- and not with me
I hope she's sweet, and so pretty
I hear she cooks delightfully,
a little angel beside you

So you're with her -- not with me
Oh how lucky can one man be?
I hear your house is smart and clean
Oh how lovely, with your homecoming queen
Oh how lovely it must be

When you see her sweet smile, baby
don't think of me
When she lays in your warm arms
don't think of me

So you're with her -- and not with me
I know she spreads sweet honey
In fact your best friend, I heard he
spent last night with her
Now how do you feel?

When you see her sweet smile, baby
don't think of me
When she lays in your warm arms
don't think of me

And it's too late, and it's too bad
Don't think of me
Oh it's too late, and it's too bad
Don't think of me

Does it bother you now, all the mess I made?
Does it bother you now, the clothes you told me not to wear?
Does it bother you now, all the angry games we played?
Does it bother you now, when I'm not there?

When you see her sweet smile, baby
don't think of me
When she lays in your warm arms
don't think of me

And it's too late, and it's too bad
Don't think of me
Oh it's too late, and it's too bad
Don't think of me

The Straighten Outer ~ Grant Lee Phillips (2012)

 

Thunder on the mountain terrace

Lightning in the sky

Hammer of the straighten-outer

Working overtime

 

And all the world's a rattle snake

Waiting to unwind

And all the world needs setting straight

In his crooked mind

 

Birds of prey they circle over

Black wing-ed birds

Smithy of the straighten-outer

Hammer out the curves

 

Volley of the straighten-outer

Make the ravens laugh

Nature, she got all the power

He will never have

 

The thunder of the straighten-outer

Sparking up the sky

Hammer of the straighten-outer

Working overtime…

 

And all the world's a rattle snake

Waiting to unwind

And all the world needs setting straight

In his crooked mind

 

Story of the straighten-outer

Story of the straighten-outer

Story of the straighten-outer

REHAB- Rihanna

 

Oh, you're the reason why I'm thinking
I don't wanna smoke on these cigarettes no more
I guess that's what I get for wishful thinking
I should've never let you enter my door
Next time you wanna go on and leave
I should just let you go on and do it
'Cause now I'm using like I bleed

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond

Find light in the beautiful sea
I choose to be happy
You and I, you and I
We're like diamonds in the sky

You're a shooting star I see
A vision of ecstasy
When you hold me, I'm alive
We're like diamonds in the sky

I knew that we'd become one right away
Oh, right away
At first sight, I felt the energy of sun rays
I saw the life inside your eyes

So shine bright, tonight, you and I
We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky
Eye to eye, so alive
We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky

Palms rise to the universe
As we moonshine and molly
Feel the warmth, we'll never die
We're like diamonds in the sky

You're a shooting star I see
A vision of ecstasy
When you hold me, I'm alive
We're like diamonds in the sky

At first sight, I felt the energy of sun rays
I saw the life inside your eyes

So shine bright, tonight, you and I
We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky
Eye to eye, so alive
We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky

So shine bright, tonight, you and I
We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky
Eye to eye, so alive
We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
