Sister

Alone is now
then was together
I have only memories
that make me feel better
Time alone is my only drug
I'll never forget my sister

A city girl
A future to find
Frozen footsteps so cold
Back in time
A big mistake a wrong move
The lord moves in mysterious ways

She was torn between two worlds
of a city and a suburb
Were her shouts of anger
And frustration ever heard
But she...

... didn’t get out in time no
She didn’t no she didn’t
Get out in time
Was the future blind
Sister, oh sister
You're on my mind

He's A Tramp

What a dog. What a dog!

He's a tramp
but they love him
Breaks a new heart
every day

He's a tramp
They adore him
And I only hope he'll stay
that way

He's a tramp
He's a scoundrel
He's a rounder
He's a cad
He's a tramp
But I love him
Yes, even I have got it 
pretty bad

You can never tell when 
He'll show up
He gives you plenty
of trouble
I guess he's just a
no-count pup
But I wish that he
were double

He's a tramp
He's a rover
And there's nothing
more to say
If he's a tramp, he's a 
good one
And I wish that I could 
travel his way

He's a tramp
But I love him
Yes, even I have got it 
pretty bad

It's Not The Fall That Hurts

All my life I’ve been fall- fall- falling apart, 
Been tumbling down quick first right from the start
I never learned just get up and go on 
Until I'm just knocked right off of my feet 

Stumblin' with every step I take
And it seems I can't get a grip
I'm soon gonna slip
And then I look down
I see the firm ground
It’s closening fast again 
And then boom 

But it's not the fall that hurts 
It's when you hit the ground 
‘Cause it's not the fall that hurts 
it's when you hit the ground.

If You Can't Leave It Be, Might As Well Make It Bleed

What you found sure upset you, 
never saw it coming did you? 
It’s easy to be surprised
with both your eyes sewn closed.

Handled with great precision,
another faultless execution,
you’re the subject of this exhibition,
a willing cadaver, a willing cadaver. 

These cuts are leaving creases. 
Trace the scars, to fit the pieces, 
to tell my story, I don’t need to say a word. 

Your wires are frayed, can’t fire right,
you look better when out of sight, 
you were not made to stand and fight,
there’s something better wrong with you. 

Your pulse is anemic, you’re tired of the fire,
you’re bruising too easily, and falling behind, 
and no one is waiting for you,
and no one is waiting for you.
And no one is waiting for you,
and no one is waiting,
and no one is waiting for you,
for you, for you.

So call off the quarantine, 
you can't save the rest from me. 
Clean this with kerosene,
if you can’t leave it be, might as well make it bleed. 

Scalped, sutured, made whole again.

What's Love Got To Do With It

You must understand though the touch of your hand
makes my pulse react
that it's only the thrill of boy meeting girl
Opposittes attract
It's physical
Only logical
You must try to ignore that it means more than that

It may seem to you that I'm acting confused
when you're close to me
if a tend to look dazed I've read it someplace
I've got cause to be
There's a name for it
There's a phrase that fits
But whatever the reason you do it for me

What's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?

I've been taking on a new direction
But I have to say
I've been thinking about my own protection
It scares me to feel this way

- Tina Turner

My Friends

These are my friends, see how they glisten?
See this one shine, how he smiles in the light,
My friends, my faithful friends...

Speak to me, friend; whisper, I'll listen.
I know, I know, you've been locked out of sight
All these years! Like me, my friend!
Well, I've come home -- to find you waiting!
Home, and we're together...
And we'll do wonders...
Won't we...?

You there, my friend,
(I'm your friend too, Mr. Todd.)
Come, let me hold you.
(If you only knew, Mr. Todd.)
Now, with a sigh,
(Ooh, Mr. Todd,)
You grow -warm in my hand...
(You're warm in my hand-...)
My friend,
(You've come home)
My clever friend...
(Always had a fondness for you, I did...)

Rest now, my friends.
(Never you fear, Mr. Todd.)
Soon I'll unfold you.
(You can move in here, Mr. Todd.)
Soon you'll know
-Splendors you never have dreamed all your days...
(Splendors you never have dreamed all your days-)
(Will be yours!)
My lucky friends!
(I'm your friend-)
'Till now your shine
(Now you're mine!)
(Don't they shine beautiful?)
Was merely silver.
(Silver's good enough for me,)

Friends,
(Mr. T...)
You shall drip rubies,
You'll soon drip precious...
Rubies...

Not While I'm Around

Nothing's gonna harm you, not while I'm around.
Nothing's gonna harm you, no sir, not while I'm around.

Demons are prowling everywhere, nowadays,
I'll send 'em howling,
I don't care, I got ways.

No one's gonna hurt you,
No one's gonna dare.
Others can desert you,
Not to worry, whistle, I'll be there.

Demons'll charm you with a smile, for a while,
But in time...
Nothing can harm you
Not while I'm around...

Not to worry, not to worry
I may not be smart but I ain't dumb
I can do it, put me to it
Show me something I can overcome
Not to worry

Being close and being clever
Ain't like being true
I don't need to,
I would never hide a thing from you,
Like some...

Red Is Blue

Everything is changing
You're looking for the cure
and you feel like you're the loneliest girl in the world
Trouble in your head now
Don't know what to do
Seems like up is down and red is blue

Remember when we started
Days when all was fun
All that we could make when life was young
Now you're getting older
Nothing feels the same
You can't even make sense of your own name

Because red is blue
(Doesn't make much sense)
But red is blue
(Messing with your head now)
Red is blue

- Ben Folds (Hoodwinked)
