The Doors - "Riders On the Storm"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DED812HKWyM

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm

There's a killer on the road
His brain is squirmin' like a toad
Take a long holiday
Let your children play
If ya give this man a ride
Sweet family will die
Killer on the road, yeah

Girl ya gotta love your man
Girl ya gotta love your man
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
Gotta love your man, yeah

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm

Barclay James Harvest - "Mocking Bird"



http://youtu.be/3frTqo_XZg4

Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sky
Hush, now baby don't you cry

There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs just for you and me

Rain, sea, surf, sand clouds and sky
Time will see your tears run dry

There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs just for you and me

There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs just for you and me

Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sun
Bless the tears of love, now gone

There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird singing songs
Singing just for you and me

The Band - "The Weight'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFqb1I-hiHE



I pulled into Nazareth, I was feelin' about half past dead
I just need some place where I can lay my head
"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand and, "No", was all he said

Take a load off Anny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Anny
And you put the load right on me
(You put the load right on me)

I picked up my bag and I went lookin' for a place to hide
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side
And I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, would you like to go downtown?"
And she said, "Well, I gotta go but my friend can stick around"

And take a load off Anny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Anny
And you put the load right on me
(You put the load right on me)

Go down, Miss Moses, there ain't nothin' that you can say
'Cause just ol' Luke and Luke's waitin' on the Judgment Day
"Well, now Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, son, won't you stay an' keep Anna Lee company?"

Take a load off Anny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Anny
And you put the load right on me
(You put the load right on me)

Crazy Chester followed me and he caught me in the fog
He said, "I will fix your rags, if you'll take Jack, my dog"
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man"
He said, "That's okay, boy, won't you feed him when you can?"

Take a load off Anny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Anny
And you put the load right on me
(You put the load right on me)

Catch a Cannonball, now, to take me down the line
My, my bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time
To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone

Take a load off Anny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Anny
And you put the load right on me
(You put the load right on me)

The Libertines - "Time for Heroes"



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAusT_Yl1gE

Did you see the stylish kids in the riot
We were shovelled up like muck
Set the night on fire
Wombles bleed truncheons and shields
You know I cherish you my love

But there's a rumour spread nasty diseases around town
Caught round the houses with your trousers down
A headrush in the bush
You know I cherish you my love
How I cherish you my love

What can you want now you've got it all
The whole scene is obscene
Time will strip it away
A year and a day
And Bill Bones
Bill Bones he knows what I mean

Yes it's eating no it's chewing me up
It's not right for young lungs to be coughing up blood
Oh it's all
It's all in my hands
And it's all up the walls

Well the stale chips are up and the hopes stakes are down
It's these ignorant faces that bring this town down
Yeah I sighed and sunken with pride
I passed myself down on my knees
Yes I passed myself down on my knees

What can you want now you've got it all
The whole scene is obscene
Time will strip it away
A year and a day
And Bill Bones
Bill Bones knows what I really mean

There are fewer more distressing sights than that
Of an Englishman in a baseball cap
And we'll die in the class we were born
Well that's a class of our own my love
A class of our own my love

Did you see the stylish kids in the riot
We were shovelled up like muck
Then set the night on fire
Wombles bleed truncheons and shields
You know I cherish you my love
Oh how I cherish you my love.

Ed Sheeran - "Thinking Out Loud"



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpyfrixXBqU

When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?

And, darling, I will be loving you 'til we're 70
And, baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Well, me I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am

So honey now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are

When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don't remember my name
When my hands don't play the strings the same way
I know you will still love me the same

'Cause honey your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen
And, baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory
I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe it's all part of a plan
Well, I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand

But, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
Thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are

So, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Oh, darling, place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are
Oh, baby, we found love right where we are
And we found love right where we are

Pete Doherty - "Music When The Lights Go Down"



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1RkJSU29B0

Is it cruel to be kind not to speak my mind and to lie to you?
Rather than hurt you.
Well, I'll confess all of my sins after several large gins,
But still I'll hide from you, hide what's inside from you,
And alarm bells ring when you say your heart still sings,
When your with me, oh please forgive me.
I no longer hear the music,
Oh no no no no,
And all the memories of the pubs and the clubs, and the drugs and the tubs we shared together,
Stay with me forever.
But all the highs and the lows, and the to's and the fro's they left me dizzy.
Say you'll forgive me.
I no longer hear the music,
Oh no no no no.

Well I no longer hear the music,
When the lights go out love goes cold in the shades of doubt,
The strange fate in my mind its all too clear,
Music when the lights come on the girl I thought I knew has gone,
With her my heart it disappeared,
And I no longer hear the music.
Oh no no no no and all the memories of the fights and the nights,
And the blue lights and the kites we flew together I thought they'd fly forever.
But all the highs and the lows and the to's and the fro's they left me dizzy,
Oh won't you please forgive me?
But I no longer hear the music
Oh no no no no

Well I no longer hear the music
When the lights go out love goes cold in the shades of doubt,
The strange fate in my mind its all too clear,
I no longer hear the music,
When the lights go out the girl I thought I knew has gone,
With her my heart has disappeared,
But I no longer hear the music.
Oh no no no no,
I no longer hear the music.

Beautiful South - "Don't Marry Her"



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Dg6fhS62i0

Think of you with pipe and slippers
Think of her in bed
Laying there just watching telly
Then think of me instead

I'll never grow so old and flabby
That could never be
Don't marry her, fuck me

And your love light shines like cardboard
But your work shoes are glistening
She's a PhD in "I told you so"
You've a knighthood in "I'm not listening"

She'll grab your sweaty bollocks
Then slowly raise her knee
Don't marry her, fuck me

When the Sunday sun shines down on San Francisco Bay
And you know that you can't have it anyway
You gotta wash the car
Take the kiddies to the park
Don't marry her, fuck me

Those lovely Sunday mornings
With breakfast brought in bed
Those blackbirds look like knitting needles
Trying to peck your head

Those birds will peck your soul out
And throw away the key
Don't marry her, fuck me

And the kitchen's always tidy
And the bathroom's always clean
She's a diploma in "just hiding things"
You've a first in "low esteem"

When your socks smell of angels
But your life smells of Brie
Don't marry her, fuck me

And the Sunday sun shines down on San Francisco bay
And you realize you can't make it anyway
You have to wash the car
Take the kiddies to the park
Don't marry her, fuck me

And the Sunday sun shines down on San Francisco bay
And you realize you can't make it anyway
You have to wash the car
Take the kiddies to the park
Don't marry her, fuck me
Send "Don't Marry Her" Ringtone to your Cell
