    Electric Light Orchestra - Hold on Thight


    Hold on tight to your dream
    Hold on tight to your dream
    When you see your ship go sailing
    When you feel your heart is breaking
    Hold tight to your dream.

    It's a long time to be gone
    Time just rolls on and on
    When you need a shoulder to cry on
    When you get so sick of trying
    Just hold tight to your dream

    [CHORUS:]
    When you get so down that you can't get up
    And you want so much but you're all out of luck
    When you're so downhearted and misunderstood
    Just over & over & over you could

    Accroches-toi a ton reve
    Accroches-toi a ton reve
    Quand tu vois ton bateau partir
    Quand tu sents -- ton coeur se briser
    Accroches-toi a ton reve.

    [REPEAT CHORUS]

    Hold on tight to your dream
    Hold on tight to your dream
    When you see the shadows falling
    When you hear that cold wind calling
    Hold on tight to your dream.

    Oh, yeah
    Hold on tight to your dream
    Yeah, hold on tight...
    To your dream.

    The Bangles - Manic Monday



    Six o'clock already
    I was just in the middle of a dream
    I was kissin' Valentino
    By a crystal blue Italian stream
    But I can't be late
    'Cause then I guess I just won't get paid
    These are the days
    When you wish your bed was already made

    It's just another manic Monday
    I wish it was Sunday
    'Cause that's my funday
    My I don't have to runday
    It's just another manic Monday

    Have to catch an early train
    Got to be to work by nine
    And if I had an air-o-plane
    I still couldn't make it on time
    'Cause it takes me so long
    Just to figure out what I'm gonna wear
    Blame it on the train
    But the boss is already there

    All of the nights
    Why did my lover have to pick last night
    To get down
    Doesn't it matter
    That I have to feed the both of us
    Employment's down
    He tells me in his bedroom voice
    C'mon honey, let's go make some noise
    Time it goes so fast
    When you're having fun

    Dust in the Wind
    Kansas

    I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
    All my dreams, pass before my eyes of curiosity
    Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind
    Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
    All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see

    Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind

    Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
    It slips away, all your money won't another minute buy

    Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind ​

    Alice in Chains

    In the darkest hole, you'd be well advised
    Not to plan my funeral before the body dies, yeah
    Come the morning light, its a see through show
    What you may have heard and what you think you know, yeah

    Let the sun never blind your eyes
    Let me sleep so my teeth don't grind
    Hear a sound from a voice inside

    Sure to play a part, so you love the game
    And in truth your lies become one and same, yeah
    I could set you free, rather hear the sound
    Of your body breaking as I take you down, yeah

    Let the sun never blind your eyes
    Let me sleep so my teeth dont grind
    Hear a sound from a voice inside

    In the darkest hole, you'd be well advised
    Not to plan my funeral before the body dies, yeah

    Let the sun never blind your eyes
    Let me sleep so my teeth don't grind (2x)
    Hear a sound from a voice inside​

    Year of the Cat - Al Stewart

    On a morning from a Bogart movie
    In a country where they turn back time
    You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre
    Contemplating a crime
    She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running
    Like a watercolour in the rain
    Don't bother asking for explanations
    She'll just tell you that she came
    In the year of the cat

    She doesn't give you time for questions
    As she locks up your arm in hers
    And you follow till your sense of which direction
    Completely disappears
    By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls
    There's a hidden door she leads you to
    These days, she says, I feel my life
    Just like a river running through
    The year of the cat

    Well morning comes and you're still with her
    And the bus and the tourists are gone
    And you've thrown away the choice and lost your ticket
    So you have to stay on
    But the drum-beat strains of the night remain
    In the rhythm of the new-born day
    You know sometime you're bound to leave her
    But for now you're going to stay
    In the year of the cat

    Run through the Jungle
    CCR

    Whoa, thought it was a nightmare,
    Lo, its all so true,
    They told me, dont go walkin slow
    cause devils on the loose.

    Chorus:
    Better run through the jungle,
    Better run through the jungle,
    Better run through the jungle,
    Woa, dont look back to see.

    Thought I heard a rumblin
    Callin to my name,
    Two hundred million guns are loaded
    Satan cries, take aim!

    Chorus

    Over on the mountain
    Thunder magic spoke,
    Let the people know my wisdom,
    Fill the land with smoke.​

    Bungle in the Jungle
    Jethro Tull

    Walking through forests of palm tree apartments ---
    scoff at the monkeys who live in their dark tents
    down by the waterhole --- drunk every Friday ---
    eating their nuts --- saving their raisins for Sunday.
    Lions and tigers who wait in the shadows ---
    they're fast but they're lazy, and sleep in green meadows.

    Let's bungle in the jungle --- well, that's all right by me.
    I'm a tiger when I want love,
    but I'm a snake if we disagree.

    Just say a word and the boys will be right there:
    with claws at your back to send a chill through the night air.
    Is it so frightening to have me at your shoulder?
    Thunder and lightning couldn't be bolder.
    I'll write on your tombstone, ``I thank you for dinner.''
    This game that we animals play is a winner.

    Let's bungle in the jungle --- well, that's all right by me.
    I'm a tiger when I want love,
    but I'm a snake if we disagree.

    The rivers are full of crocodile nasties
    and He who made kittens put snakes in the grass.
    He's a lover of life but a player of pawns ---
    yes, the King on His sunset lies waiting for dawn
    to light up His Jungle
    as play is resumed.
    The monkeys seem willing to strike up the tune.​

    Devil Woman


    I've had nothing but bad luck
    Since the day I saw the cat at my door
    So I came here to you, sweet lady
    Answering your mystical call
    Crystal ball on the table
    Showing the future, the past
    Same cat with them evil eyes
    And I knew it was a spell she'd cast.

    She's just a devil woman
    With evil on her mind
    Beware the devil woman
    She's gonna get you
    She's just a devil woman
    With evil on her mind
    Beware the devil woman
    She's gonna get you from behind.

    Give me the ring on your finger
    Let me see the lines of your hand
    I can see me a tall dark stranger
    Giving you what you hadn't planned
    I drank the potion she offered me
    I found myself on the floor
    Then I looked in those big green eyes
    And I wondered what I came there for.

    Stay awake
    Look out
    If you're out on a moonlit night
    Be careful of the neighbourhood strays
    Of a lady with long black hair
    Tryin' to win you with her feminine ways
    Crystal ball on the table
    Showing the future, the past
    Same cat with them evil eyes
    You'd better get out of there fast
    She's just a devil woman
    With evil on her mind
    Beware the devil woman
    She's gonna get you.

    Afterglow - INXS

    Here I am, lost in the light of the moon that comes through my window
    Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divides the thorns from the roses
    It's you and the roses

    Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
    Heal me from all this sorrow
    As I let you go I will find my way when I see your eyes
    Now I'm living in your afterglow

    Here I am, lost in the ashes of time, but who owns tomorrow?
    In between the longing to hold you again
    I'm caught in your shadow, I'm losing control
    My mind drifts away, we only have today

    Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
    Heal me from all this sorrow
    As I let you go I will find my way
    I will sacrifice 'til the blinding day when I see your eyes
    Now I'm living in your afterglow

    When the veils are gone, as I let you go, as I let you go

    Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
    Heal me from all this sorrow
    As I let you go I will find my way, I will sacrifice
    Now I'm living in your afterglow

    Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divides the thorns from the roses
    It's you who is closest

    How deep is your love
    Bee Gees

    I know your eyes in the morning sun
    I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
    And the moment that you wander far from me
    I wanna feel you in my arms again

    And you come to me on a summer breeze
    Keep me warm in your love and then softly leave
    And its me you need to show

    Chorus:
    How deep is your love
    I really need to learn
    cause were living in a world of fools
    Breaking us down
    When they all should let us be
    We belong to you and me

    I believe in you
    You know the door to my very soul
    Youre the light in my deepest darkest hour
    Youre my saviour when I fall
    And you may not think
    I care for you
    When you know down inside
    That I really do
    And its me you need to show

    Chorus
    Repeat and fade


    That's right, Barry Gibbs is the man. Got a problem with that? Hahahaha Bee Gees rule..

    I'm wanting the Grease Soundtrack, bad. I have a Barry Gibb version of the song, Grease (is the word) as he wrote it, but much prefer Franki Valli's version from the movie soundtrack. Good stuff​

    Noone to run with - Allman Bros


    Everybody wants to know where Jimmy has gone
    He left town, I doubt if he's coming back home

    Well Tony got a job, three kids and a lovely wife
    Working at the commerce bank for the rest of his life

    Nobody left to run with anymore
    Nobody left to do the crazy things we used to do before
    Nobody left to run with anymore

    I'm gonna hit the road, adios my friend
    Go someplace and start all over again

    Don't know where I'm going, like a gypsy out on the road
    I'll go someplace and join a traveling show

    Nobody left to run with anymore
    Nobody wants to do the crazy things we used to do before
    Nobody left to run with anymore

    Nobody left to run with anymore
    Nobody left to run with anymore


    I think Jimmy must have had the right idea
    Packed his stuff and he got right out of here

    I don't know where he's at but I'm sure that he's ok
    Now I realize what Jimmy was trying to say

    Nobody left to run with anymore
    Nobody wants to do the crazy things we used to do before
    Nobody left to run with anymore

    Nobody left to run with anymore
    Nobody left to run with anymore

    No Excuses - Alice in chains


    It's alright
    There comes a time
    Got no patience to search
    For peace of mind
    Layin' low
    Want to take it slow
    No more hiding or
    Disguising truths I've sold

    Everyday it's something
    Hits me all so cold
    Find me sittin' by myself
    No excuses, then I know

    It's okay
    Had a bad day
    Hands are bruised from
    Breaking rocks all day
    Drained and blue
    I bleed for you
    You think it's funny, well
    You're drowning in it too

    Yeah, it's fine
    We'll walk down the line
    Leave our rain, a cold
    Trade for warm sunshine
    You my friend
    I will defend
    And if we change, well I
    Love you anyway

    Just hear me out
    If it's not perfect I'll perfect it till my heart explodes
    I highly doubt
    I can make it through another of your episodes
    Lashing out
    One of the petty moves you pull before you lose control
    You wear me out
    But it's all right now
    Lets go home and get stoned
    We could end up makin love instead of misery
    Go home and get stoned
    Cause the sex is so much better when you're mad at me
    You wear me out (We could end up making love instead of misery)
    But it's all right now
    Without a doubt
    The break up is worth the make up sex you're givin me
    Lets hash it out
    Cause your bitchin and your yellin don't mean anything
    Don't count me out
    I can handle all the baggage that you're carrying
    You wear me out
    But it's all right now
    Let's go home and get stoned
    We could end up makin love instead of misery
    Go home and get stoned
    Cause the sex is so much better when you're mad at me
    You wear me out (We could end up makin love instead of misery)
    But it's alright now
    Lets go home and get stoned
    We could end up makin love instead of misery
    Go home and get stoned
    Cause the sex is so much better when you're mad at me

    We could end up making love instead of misery
    Go home and get stoned

    J Giels Band - Piss on the Wall


    Now some people think the world is what it ain't
    To some I'm a sinner, to others a saint
    Some folks say the world ain't what is is
    All I know is I just got to take a wiz
    Where am I goin' and where have I been
    My head's in the clouds and my tail's in a spin
    Jumpin' out of planes for the thrill of it all
    Then I bounce back and take a piss on the wall
    Politics - Shmolitics
    They oughta save their breath
    Mean streak - blue streak
    They sentence me to death
    Harangue me from a tree
    Twist and shout until I crawl
    Do the flip - do the flop
    Piss On The Wall
    Well the Yanks hate the Reds
    And the Greeks hate the Turks
    I really hate to say it
    But they're all a bunch of jerks
    Seems like everybody's shakin'
    'Cause the big one's 'bout to fall
    I'm just tryin' to hold it steady while I
    Piss on the wall​

    Some ideas for the single ladies in what to look for in a man

    Night Prowler
    AC/DC

    Somewhere a clock strikes midnight
    And there's a full moon in the sky
    You hear a dog bark in the distance
    You hear someone's baby cry
    A rat runs down the alley
    And a chill runs down your spine
    And someone walks across your grave
    And you wish the sun would shine
    Cause no one's gonna warn you
    And no one's gonna yell attack
    And you don't feel the steel
    Till it's hangin' out your back
    I'm your night prowler, asleep in the day
    Night prowler, get outta my way
    I'm the prowler, watch out tonight
    Yes I'm your night prowler, when you turn out the light

    Too scared to turn your light out
    Cause there's somethin' on your mind
    Was that a noise outside the window
    What's that shadow on the blind
    As you lie there naked
    Like a body in a tomb
    Suspended animation as I slip into your room
    I'm your night prowler, asleep in the day
    Night prowler, get outta my way
    Look out for the night prowler, watch out tonight
    Yes I'm the night prowler, when you turn out the light

    I'm your night prowler, asleep in the day
    Yes I'm your night prowler, get outta my way
    Look out for the night prowler, watch out tonight
    Yes I'm your night prowler, when you turn out the light
    I'm your night prowler, break down your door
    I'm your night prowler, crawling across your floor
    I'm the night prowler, make a mess of you, yes I will
    Night prowler
    And I'm telling this to you
    There ain't nothing
    There ain't nothing
    Nothing you can do
