    Tell It Like It Is
    (1964 - Aaron Neville)

    From: Tell It Like It Is





    VIDEO


    If you want something to play with
    Go and find yourself a toy
    Baby, my time is too expensive
    And I'm not a little boy

    If you are serious
    Don't play with my heart, it makes me furious
    But if want me to love you
    Then, baby, I will, girl, you know I will

    Tell it like it is
    Don't be ashamed to let your conscience be your guide
    But I-I-I-I-I know deep down inside of me
    I believe you love me, forget your foolish pride

    Life is too short to have sorrow
    You may be here today and gone tomorrow
    You might as well get what you want
    So go on and live, baby, go on and live

    Come Down In Time
    (1970 - Elton John)

    From: Tumbleweed Connection





    VIDEO


    In the quiet silent seconds I turned off the light switch
    And I came down to meet you in the half light the moon left
    While a cluster of night jars sang some songs out of tune
    A mantle of bright light shone down from a room

    Come down in time I still hear her say
    So clear in my ear like it was today
    Come down in time was the message she gave
    Come down in time and I'll meet you half way

    Well I don't know if I should have heard her as yet
    But a true love like hers is a hard love to get
    And I've walked most all the way and I ain't heard her call
    And I'm getting to thinking if she's coming at all

    Come down in time I still hear her say
    So clear in my ear like it was today
    Come down in time was the message she gave
    Come down in time and I'll meet you half way

    There are women and women and some hold you tight
    While some leave you counting the stars in the night

    White Rabbit
    (1967 - Jefefrson Airplane)

    From: Surrealistic Pillow





    VIDEO


    One pill makes you larger
    And one pill makes you small
    And the ones that mother gives you
    Don't do anything at all
    Go ask Alice
    When she's ten feet tall

    And if you go chasing rabbits
    And you know you're going to fall
    Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar
    Has given you the call
    Call Alice
    When she was just small

    When the men on the chessboard
    Get up and tell you where to go
    And you've just had some kind of mushroom
    And your mind is moving low
    Go ask Alice
    I think she'll know

    When logic and proportion
    Have fallen sloppy dead
    And the White Knight is talking backwards
    And the Red Queen's off with her head
    Remember what the dormouse said
    Feed your head
    Feed your head

    The Rain Song
    (1973 - Led Zeppelin)

    From: House Of Holy





    VIDEO


    It is the springtime of my loving - the second season I am to know
    You are the sunlight in my growing - so little warmth I've felt before.
    It isn't hard to feel me glowing - I watched the fire that grew so low.

    It is the summer of my smiles - flee from me Keepers of the Gloom.
    Speak to me only with your eyes. It is to you I give this tune.
    Ain't so hard to recognize - These things are clear to all from time to time.

    Talk, talk, talk, talk - I've felt the coldness of my winter
    I never thought it would ever go. I cursed the gloom that set upon us, 'pon us, 'pon us...
    But I know that I love you so. But I know that I love you so

    These are the seasons of emotion and like the wind they rise and fall
    This is the wonder of devotion - I see the torch we all must hold.
    This is the mystery of the quotient, quotient - Upon us all, upon us all a little rain must fall.
    It's just a little rain oh yeah

    Enter Sandman
    (1991 - Metallica)

    From: Metallica





    VIDEO


    Say your prayers, little one
    Don't forget, my son
    To include everyone

    Tuck you in, warm within
    Keep you free from sin
    Till the Sandman he comes

    Sleep with one eye open
    Gripping your pillow tight

    Exit: light
    Enter: night
    Take my hand
    We're off to never never land

    Something's wrong, shut the light
    Heavy thoughts tonight
    And they aren't of Snow White

    Dreams of war, dreams of liars
    Dreams of dragon's fire
    And of things that will bite

    Sleep with one eye open
    Gripping your pillow tight

    Exit: light
    Enter: night
    Take my hand
    We're off to never never land

    Now I lay me down to sleep
    Pray the Lord my soul to keep
    If I die before I wake
    Pray the Lord my soul to take

    Hush little baby, don't say a word
    And never mind that noise you heard
    It's just the beasts under your bed
    In your closet, in your head

    Exit: light
    Enter: night
    Grain of sand

    Exit: light
    Enter: night
    Take my hand
    We're off to never never land

    Overkill
    (1979 - Motörhead)

    From: Overkill





    VIDEO


    Only way to feel the noise is when it's good and loud
    So good I can't believe it, screamin' with the crowd
    Don't sweat it, get it back to you
    Don't sweat it, get it back to you
    OVERKILL, OVERKILL, OVERKILL

    On your feet you feel the beat, it goes straight to your spine
    Shake your head, you must be dead if it don't make you fly
    Don't sweat it, get it back to you
    Don't sweat it, get it back to you
    OVERKILL, OVERKILL, OVERKILL

    Know your body's made to move
    Feel it in your guts
    Rock'n'roll ain't worth the name
    If it don't make you strut
    Don't sweat it, get it back to you
    Don't sweat it, get it back to you
    OVERKILL, OVERKILL, OVERKILL

    I Know You Got Soul
    (1987 - Eric B. & Rakim)

    From: Paid in Full





    VIDEO


    It's been a long time I shouldn't have left you
    Without a strong rhyme to step to
    Think of how many weak shows you slept through
    Time's up I'm sorry I kept you
    Thinking of this you keep repeating you miss
    The rhymes from the microphone soloist
    And you sit by the radio hand on the dial soon
    As you hear it pump up the volume
    Dance wit the speaker 'til you hear it blow
    Then plug in the headphone 'cause here it go
    It's a 4 letter word when it's heard, it control
    Your body to dance (You got it) soul,
    Detects the tempo like a red alert
    Reaches your reflex, so let it work
    When this is playing, you can't get stuck wit
    The steps, so get set and I'm a still come up wit
    A gift to be swift, follow the leader, the rhyme will go
    Def wit the record that was mixed a long time ago
    It can be done but only I can do it
    For those that can dance and clap your hands to it
    I start to think and then I sink
    Into the paper like I was ink
    When I'm writing, I'm trapped in between the lines,
    I escape when I finish the rhyme
    I got soul

    You got it
    You got it
    You got it
    You got it
    I know you got soul

    Picture a mic, the stage is empty
    A beat like this might tempt me
    To pose, show my rings and my fat gold chain
    Grab the mic like I'm on Soul Train
    But I'll wait 'cause I mastered this
    Let the others go first so the brothers don't miss
    Eric B. break the sticks (you got it)
    Rakim will begin when you make the mix
    I'll experiment like a scientist
    You want to rhyme, you gotta sign my list
    'Cause I'm a manifest and bless the mic I hold
    You want it next? then you gotta have soul
    'Cause if you ain't got it, I'm a make an encore
    Take the mic, make the people respond for
    The are, 'cause that's the way it'll have to be
    If you want to get on after me
    Think about it, wait, erase your rhyme
    Forget it and don't waste your time
    'Cause I'll be in the crowd if you ain't controlling it
    Drop the mic, you shouldn't be holding it
    This is how it should be done
    This style is identical to none
    Some try to make it sound like this but you're getting me
    So upset that I'm wet 'cause you're sweating me
    I drip steam like a microphone fiend
    Eager to MC is my theme
    I get hype when I hear a drum roll
    Rakim is on the mic and you know I got soul

    You got it
    You got it
    You got it
    You got it
    You got it

    I got soul (you got it) that's why I came
    To teach those who can't say my name
    First of all, I'm the soloist, the soul controller
    Rakim gets stronger as I get older
    Constant elevation causes expansion
    I write my rhyme while I cool in my mansion
    Then put it on tape and in the city I test it
    Then on the radio the R's requested
    You listen to it, the concept might break you
    'Cause almost anyone can relate to
    Whoever's out of hand, I'm give him handles
    Light 'em up, blow 'em out like candles
    Or should I just let him melt?
    Then give him a hand so they can see how it felt
    I'm not bold just 'cause I rock gold
    Rakim is on the mic and you know I got soul

    You got it
    You got it
    You got it
    You got it

    Now I'm a stop to see what you got
    Get off the mic before I get too hot
    I want to see which posse can dance the best
    It should be easy 'cause the beat is fresh
    Now if your from Uptown, Brooklyn- bound,
    The Bronx, Queens, or Long Island Sound,
    Even other states come right and exact,
    It ain't where you're from, it's where you're at
    Since you came here, you have to show and prove
    And do that dance until it don't move
    'Cause all you need is soul self-esteem will release,
    The rest is up to you, Rakim 'll say peace

    You got it

    Monkey Man
    (1969 - The Rolling Stones)

    From: Let It Bleed





    VIDEO


    I'm a fleabit peanut monkey
    All my friends are junkies
    That's not really true
    I'm a cold Italian pizza
    I could use a lemon squeezer
    Would you do?
    But I've been bit and I've been tossed around
    By every she-rat in this town
    Have you, babe?
    Well, I am just a monkey man
    I'm glad you are a monkey woman too
    I was bitten by a boar
    I was gouged and I was gored
    But I pulled it on through
    Yes, I'm a sack of broken eggs
    I always have an unmade bed
    Don't you?
    Well, I hope we're not too messianic
    Or a trifle too satanic
    We love to play the blues
    Well I am just a monkey man
    I'm glad you are a monkey, monkey woman too, babe
    I'm a monkey
    I'm a monkey
    I'm a monkey man
    I'm a monkey man
    I'm a monkey...
    (ad lib)

    Unsatisfied
    (1984 - The Replacements)

    From: Let it Be





    VIDEO


    Look me in the eye
    Then, tell me that I'm satisfied
    Was you satisfied?
    Look me in the eye
    Then, tell me that I'm satisfied
    Hey, are you satisfied?

    And it goes so slowly on
    Everything I've ever wanted
    Tell me what's wrong

    Look me in the eye
    And tell me that I'm satisfied
    Were you satisfied?
    Look me in the eye
    Then, tell me I'm satisfied
    And now are you satisfied?

    Everything goes
    Well, anything goes all of the time
    Everything you dream of
    Is right in front of you
    And everything is a lie (or) And liberty is a lie

    Look me in the eye
    And tell me that I'm satisfed
    Look me in the eye
    Unsatisfied
    I'm so, I'm so unsatisfied
    I'm so dissatisfied
    I'm so, I'm so unsatisfied
    I'm so unsatisfied
    Well, I'm-a
    I'm so, I'm so unsatisfied
    I'm so dissatis, dissattis...
    I'm so

    (1969 - Sly & the Family Stone)

    From: I’m Back! Family & Friends





    VIDEO


    Lookin' at the devil
    Grinnin' at his gun
    Fingers start shakin'
    I begin to run
    Bullets start chasin'
    I begin to stop
    We begin to wrestle
    I was on the top

    I want to thank you falettinme
    Be mice elf agin
    Thank you falettinme
    Be mice elf agin

    Stiff all in the collar
    Fluffy in the face
    Chit chat chatter tryin'
    Stuffy in the place
    Thank you for the party
    But I could never stay
    Many thangs is on my mind
    Words in the way

    I want to thank you falettinme
    Be mice elf agin
    Thank you falettinme
    Be mice elf agin

    Dance to the music

    I want to thank you falettinme
    Be mice elf agin
    (Different strokes for different folks, yeah)
    Thank you falettinme
    Be mice elf agin

    Flamin' eyes of people fear
    Burnin' into you
    Many men are missin' much
    Hatin' what they do
    Youth and truth are makin' love
    Dig it for a starter, now
    Dyin' young is hard to take
    Sellin' out is harder

    Thank you falettinme
    Be mice elf agin
    I want to thank you falettinme
    Be mice elf agin

    Visions of Johanna
    (1966 - Bob Dylan)

    From: Blonde on Blonde





    VIDEO


    Ain't it just like the night to play tricks
    when you're trying to be so quiet
    we sit here stranded
    tho we're all doing our best to deny it
    and louise holds a hand full of rain
    tempting you to defy it
    lights flicker from the opposite loft
    in this room the heatpipes just cough
    the country music station plays soft
    but there's nothing
    really nothing to turn off
    just louise and her lover so entwined
    and these visions of Johanna
    that conquer my mind
    in the empty lot where the ladies play
    blindman's buff with the key chain
    and the all night girls
    they whisper of escapades out on the D(1) train
    we can hear the night watchman
    click his flashlight
    ask himself if it's him or them
    that's insane
    Louise she's alright she's just near
    she's delicate and she seems like the mirror
    but she just makes it all
    too concise and too clear
    that Johanna's not here
    the ghost of electricity
    howls in the bones of her face
    where these visions of Johanna
    have now taken my place
    now little boy lost
    he takes himself so seriously
    he brags of his misery
    he likes to live dangerously
    and when bringing her name up
    he speaks of a farewell kiss to me
    he's sure got a lot of gall
    to be so useless and all
    muttering small talk at the wall
    while I'm in the hall
    oh how can I explain
    it's so hard to get on
    and these visions of Johanna
    they kept me up past the dawn
    inside the museums
    infinity goes up on trial
    voices echo this is what
    salvation must be like after a while
    but mona lisa must a had the highway blues(2)
    you can tell by the way she smiles
    see the primitive wallflower(3) freeze
    when the jellyfaced(4) women all sneeze
    hear the one with the moustache say jeeze
    I can't find my knees
    oh jewels and binoculars
    hang from the head of the mule
    but these visions of johanna
    they make it all seem so cruel
    the peddler now speaks to the countess
    who's pretending to care for him
    saying name me someone who is not a parasite
    and I'll go out and say a prayer for him
    but like louise always says
    you can't look at much can ya man
    and she herself prepares for him
    and madonna she still has not showed
    we see this empty cage now corrode
    where her cape on the stage once had flowed
    the fiddler he now steps to the road
    he writes ev'rything's been returned
    which was owed
    on the back of the fishtruck that loads
    while my conscience explodes
    the harmonicas play the skeleton keys(5) and the rain
    and these visions of johanna are now all
    that remain

    I Believe I Can Fly
    (2005 - R.Kelly)

    From: R.





    VIDEO


    I used to think that I could not go on
    And life was nothing but an awful song
    But now I know the meaning of true love
    I'm leaning on the everlasting arms

    If I can see it, then I can do it
    If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

    [Chorus:]
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can touch the sky
    I think about it every night and day
    Spread my wings and fly away
    I believe I can soar
    I see me running through that open door
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can fly

    See I was on the verge of breaking down
    Sometimes silence can seem so loud
    There are miracles in life I must achieve
    But first I know it starts inside of me, oh

    If I can see it, then I can be it
    If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

    [Chorus]

    Hey, cause I believe in me, oh

    If I can see it, then I can do it (I can do it)
    If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

    [Chorus]

    Hey, if I just spread my wings
    I can fly
    I can fly
    I can fly, hey
    If I just spread my wings
    I can fly-eye-eye-eye
    Hum, fly-eye-eye

    Someone Saved My Life Tonight
    (1975 - Elton John)

    From: Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy





    VIDEO


    When I think of those East End lights, muggy nights
    The curtains drawn in the little room downstairs
    Prima Donna lord you really should have been there
    Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair
    And it's one more beer and I don't hear you anymore
    We've all gone crazy lately
    My friends out there rolling round the basement floor

    And someone saved my life tonight sugar bear
    You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
    You nearly had me roped and tied
    Altar-bound, hypnotized
    Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
    You're a butterfly
    And butterflies are free to fly
    Fly away, high away, bye bye

    I never realized the passing hours of evening showers
    A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams
    I'm strangled by your haunted social scene
    Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen
    It's four o'clock in the morning
    Damn it listen to me good
    I'm sleeping with myself tonight
    Saved in time, thank God my music's still alive

    And I would have walked head on into the deep end of the river
    Clinging to your stocks and bonds
    Paying your H.P. demands forever
    They're coming in the morning with a truck to take me home
    Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
    Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
    Someone saved my life tonight
    So save your strength and run the field you play alone

    Bell Bottom Blues
    (1970 - Derek and the Dominos)

    From: Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs





    VIDEO


    [Chorus:]
    Bell bottom blues, you made me cry.
    I don't want to lose this feeling.
    And if I could choose a place to die
    It would be in your arms.

    Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
    Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
    I'd gladly do it because
    I don't want to fade away.
    Give me one more day, please.
    I don't want to fade away.
    In your heart I want to stay.

    It's all wrong, but it's all right.
    The way that you treat me baby.
    Once I was strong but I lost the fight.
    You won't find a better loser.

    [Chorus 2x]

    Bell bottom blues, don't say goodbye.
    I'm sure we're gonna meet again,
    And if we do, don't you be surprised
    If you find me with another lover.

    [Chorus]

    I don't want to fade away.
    Give me one more day please.
    I don't want to fade away.
    In your heart I long to stay.

    We've Only Just Begun
    (1970 - The Carpenters)

    From: Close to You





    VIDEO


    We've only just begun to live,
    White lace and promises
    A kiss for luck and we're on our way.
    We've just begun.

    Before the rising sun we fly,
    So many roads to choose
    We start out walking and learn to run.
    And yes, We've just begun.

    Sharing horizons that are new to us,
    Watching the signs along the way,
    Talking it over just the two of us,
    Working together day to day
    Together.

    And when the evening comes we smile,
    So much of life ahead
    We'll find a place where there's room to grow,
    And yes, We've just begun.
