'What Would Morrissey Say?' by Help She Can't Swim

you couldn't hold a drink to save yr life
it's a mercy that none of you can drive
just strut around pouting and looking wide eyed
like this was britpop circa 1995
but meanswear split and pulp are gone
and now everyone likes garage rock

you dance like a dad at a disco
what would morrissey say?

put yr face around on a night on the tiles
it's all charm and bad toothed smiles
as long as yr tapping yr toes then it's alright
all the underaged girls are digging your style
and yr pointy leather shoes are a fucking lie
as long as yr tapping yr toes then it's alright

you dance like a dad at a disco
what would morrissey say?

Dry Cell - Last Time.
Comforting. not very typical Dry Cell song really.

So fall...
[Hurting all the time]
[And you just don't know why]
...asleep
Be peaceful as you lay
Forget about the world
You're going to be okay

Now I'm listening to 'Helicopter' by Bloc Party

North to south
Empty
Running on
Bravado
As if to say, as if to say
As if to say, he doesn't like chocolate
He's born a liar, he'll die a liar
Some things will never be different

Stop being - so American
There's a time and there's a place
So James Dean - So blue jeans
Gonna save the world
He's gonna

Are you hoping for a miracle?
Are you hoping for a miracle?
Are you hoping for a miracle?
Are you hoping for a miracle?

Three out of five, three out of five (it's not enough)
Six out of ten
Better luck next time
Just like his Dad, just like his Dad (the same mistakes)
Some things will never be different
Hungry and dumb, hungry and dumb (so wait in line)
Queuing up for some more junk food
It's not my fault, it's not my fault (just this once)
They're getting so much younger

Why can't you be more European
Bastard child of guilt and shame
Bury your head in the sand
I'm thinking six, six, six
I'm thinking six

Are you hoping for a miracle?
Are you hoping for a miracle?
Are you hoping for a miracle?
Are you hoping for a miracle?

It's not enough.

'Jenny Was a Friend Of Mine' - The Killers

We took a walk that night, but it wasn't the same
We had a fight on the promenade out in the rain
She said she loved me, but she had somewhere to go
She couldn't scream while I held I close
I swore I'd never let her go
Tell me what you wanna know
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on
There ain't no motive for this crime
Jenny was a friend of mine
So come on, oh come on, oh come on

I know my rights, I've been here all day and it's time
For me to go, so let me know if it's alright
I just can't take this, I swear I told you the truth
She couldn't scream while I held I close
I swore I'd never let her go

Tell me what you wanna know
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on
And then you whisper in my ear
I know what you're doing here
So come on, oh come on, oh come on
There ain't no motive for this crime
Jenny was a friend of mine
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on

Chris Cornell - Can't Change Me

She can do anything at all
Have anything she pleases
The power to change what she thinks is wrong
So what could she want with me?

But wait just one minute here
I can see that she?s trying to read me
Suddenly I know

She?s going to change the world
But she can?t change me
No she can?t change me

She has the daylight at her command
She gives the night it?s dreams
She can uncover your darkest fear
And make you forget you feel it

But wait just one minute more
I can see that she?s trying to free me
Suddenly I know

She?s going to change the world
But she can?t change me

Suddenly I can see everything that?s wrong with me
But what can I do?
I?m the only thing I really have at all

But wait just one minute here
I can see that she?s trying to need me
Suddenly I know

She?s going to change the world
But she can?t change me
No she can?t change me

Faerie Queen - Heather Alexander

One wintry night a wondrous sight I met while riding back
Returning from a ceili, with me fiddle in me pack
My horse, he stopped quite suddenly, his ears began to twitch
He bucked and threw me pack and all into a nearby ditch

I tried to rise, but then my eyes alighted on a scene
Of faerie creatures dancing by, cavorting 'round their Queen
She'd been out hunting, it was plain, delighted by her prize
And though he was in thrall to her, I knew his gentle eyes

I stood again and shouted when they drew abreast of me,
"I challenge you, for you have caught my husband-soon-to-be!"
They stopped and she stared down at me, the Queen astride her steed,
"I see you have the courage, dear, but skill is what you need!"

CHORUS:
Be it carved from out the finest wood
And strung with silver string
Only mortal trust or faerie dust
Can make a fiddle sing!

"We each shall play and I will say which fiddle is played best,
And should you win this mortal toy I'll free, without protest."
They handed her a violin, as black as she was fey
She placed a bow upon the strings and then began to play

[Faerie Queen's solo]

My spirit low I raised my bow, I knew not where to start
I looked within my lover's eyes and then within my heart
My head was filled with mortal dreams, of love beneath the moon
Of sun and rain and season's change, and so began my tune

[Fiddler Girl's solo]

I raised my head my arms like lead my heart ablaze once more
The Faerie Queen looked down at me, shaken to the core
"I've played for many centuries, yet, by the stars above,
You've taught me skill is not enough. It can't compare to love."

[CHORUS]

A Perfect Circle - Judith.

You're such an inspiration for the ways
That I'll never ever choose to be
Oh so many ways for me to show you
How the savior has abandoned you
Fuck your God
Your Lord and your Christ
He did this
Took all you had and
Left you this way
Still you pray, you never stray
Never taste of the fruit
You never thought to question why
It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side
Praise the one who left you
Broken down and paralyzed
He did it all for you
He did it all for you
Oh so many many ways for me to show you
How your dogma has abandoned you
Pray to your Christ, to your god
Never taste of the fruit
Never stray, never break
Never---choke on a lie
Even though he's the one who did this to you
You never thought to question why
Not like you killed someone
It's Not like you drove a spiteful spear into his side
Talk to Jesus Christ
As if he knows the reasons why
He did it all for you
Did it all for you
He did it all for you..

Fatboy Slim - Song For Shelter

I get deep, I get deep, I get deep, I get deeper
into this thing
the deeper I go
the more knowledge I know
what to sing
what to bring
wha...

I get deep, I get deep, I get deep, I get deeper, deeper, deeper
into the rhyme

Chillin' in the corner at the shelter all by myself
checkin it out I’m not dancin' no more but
why? why? why? wha...

How on earth are you supposed to vibe around the fake ones
the one, the ones that say
they know what is what but they don't know what is what
they just strut
what the fuck?

I get deep, I get deep, I get deep, I get deep, I get deeper
into this thing
and I pretend that they're not there
I just stare
up in the booth at the dread man spinnin the song
spinnin it strong
playing things like
we cannot house we can
that’s my shit
what?
whoooooo!

I get deep, I get deep, I get deeper, I get deeper
when people start to disappear
and it's about six o'clock
whoo I'm feelin' hot
take off my sweater and my pants
and I start to dance
and all the sweat just goes down my face
and I pretend that there's nobody there but me in this place
I get deep, oh i get deep

I get deep, I get deep, I get deep, I get deep
he takes all the bass out of the song
and all you hear is highs and its like
oh, shit!
ahh
I get deeper

I get deep, I get deep, I get deep, I get deep
and the rhythm flows through my blood like alcohol
and I get drunk and I oh all over the place
And I catch myself
right on time
right on line
with the beat
and its so sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet

I get deeper
I get deeper
I get deeper

If the house music was ale
and Doctor love would be my song
And I would only take deep breaths
and fill my lungs with the rhythm or the bass
I get deep

Now it's about three and I see people goin'
spinnin' jumpin' and grindin'
as if they had wings on their feet
raising both hands in the air as if Jesus was the DJ himself
spinnin those funky funky funky house beats

And in this temple we all pray in unity for the same thing
with matic pause without cause
bass from those high definition speakers
sitting in the corner on each side of the room
givin' us the boom boom boom
to our zoom zoom zoom

the smell of a L lit while walking by
but the music gets me high
saint defy like and old lady in church
we get happy
we stomp our feet
we clap our hands
we shout
we cry
we dance
and we say
sweet Lord, speak to me
speak to me, speak to me, speak to me
because we love house music
and on this planet it brings us together
like a family reunion every week
we eat
we drink
we laugh
we play
and we skate
so for all you hip hoppers
you do woppers
name droppers
you bill boppers
come into our house
to get deep


You guys just keep it rollin'
You gotta just keep it rollin'
(x19)
