Sweet 16 and we had arrived
Walkin’ down the streets as they whistle, “hi, hi”
Stealin’ police guys with the senior guys
Teachers said we’d never make it out alive

There she was, my new best friend
High heels in her hands, swayin’ in the wind
Oh she starts to cry, mascara running down her little bambi eyes
Lana how I hate those guys

And that’s where the beginning of the end began
Everybody knew that we had too much fun
We were skippin’ school and drinkin’ on the job
With the boss

Sweet 16 and we had arrived
Baby’s table-dancing at the local dive
Cheerin’ our names in the pink spotlight
Drinkin’ cherry schnapps in the velvet night

Yeah we used to go break into the hotel
Pool glimmering we’d swim
Runnin’ from the cops in our black bikini tops Screamin’, “Get us while we’re hot”
“Get us while we’re hot”
~Come on take a shot.~

I don't know why but the lyrics resinate with me.

[Ammi]

Into White..Cat Stevens

I built my house from barley rice
Green pepper walls and water ice
Tables of paper wood, windows of light
And everything emptying into white.

A simple garden, with acres of sky
A Brown-haired dogmouse
If one dropped by
Yellow Delanie would sleep well at night
With everything emptying into white.

A sad Blue eyed drummer rehearses outside
A Black spider dancing on top of his eye
Red legged chicken stands ready to strike
And everything emptying into white.

I built my house from barley rice
Green pepper walls and water ice
And everything emptying into white

[Ammi]

I'm on Fire...Bruce Springsteen

Sometimes it's like someone took a knife baby
edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley
through the middle of my soul

At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
and a freight train running through the
middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
I'm on fire

[Patrick]

'Buy beer or pay the rent, my signing bonus was quickly spent;
So I'll beat my meat like I'm a ******ing butcher,
And I'll punk the pussy, like I'm Ashton Kutcher!'

[Kizzy]

'beware, i bear more grudges than lonely high court judges'

[Bollo]

'Imagine his surprise when he opened his eyes and I'd run the lawnmower over his face'
Welcome to the cheap seats - The Wonderstuff

Transport, motorways and tramlines,
Starting and then stopping,
Taking off and landing,
The emptiest of feelings,
Disappointed people, clinging on to bottles,
And when it comes it's so, so, disappointing

Let down and hanging around,
Crushed like a bug in the ground
Let down and hanging around

Shell smashed, juices flowing
Wings twitch, legs are going,
Don't get sentimental, it always ends up drivel
One day, I am gonna grow wings,
A chemical reaction,
Hysterical and useless
Hysterical and

Let down and hanging around,
Crushed like a bug in the ground
Let down and hanging around

[Bollo]

I went in next Took a bullet in the chest.
So I hit him with the only thing that was anywhere near me.
A tin of baked beans and a woman's weekly.
I grabbed the cash Picked you up and made a dash.
Didn't get too far Made it to the parking lot.
40 cops in front of us.
Guess who got shot...

You and me vs. the world -Space

[King Gizzard]

There's a weight over me today,
it's something I have to say,
love you too much to leave,
don't like you enough to stay.

My heads in a mess
and I'm stressed
but i guess its a test in the quest for happiness
and the rest of that mess
so i best just acquiesce
even though I've grown tired of you

And that ain't meant to sound spiteful
I'm just trying to be insightful
when i write all my emotions
In the night all the stuff I try to fight
just comes out and the sad fact is I'm so tired of you

Love, its a weird thing ain't it?
there's no way to explain it
but i swear as well as pain
there should be joy but we sustain
the same level of mundane
and its numbing me through

i often wonder if I'd miss you
and have the urge to kiss you
if an issue was to hit through
to this heart that now feels disused
and said issue was too big to just ignore
and i walked out on you

the chances are I'd fall apart
and suffer seizures of the heart
as my chest begins to smart
the very second have to part
i want to go back to the start
but then again maybe I'd just feel new
maybe I'd get my life on track
and start to focus my attack
on all the things my life just lacks
and start to claw my passion back
instead of living like a hack
half committed half relaxed
id have nothing to lose

There's a weight over me today
it's something I have to say
love you too much to leave
don't like you enough to stay

I guess lately I've had too much time to think
and yeah way too much drink
when paper meets the ink
over thinking is the chink in my armour
that's just what i do.
And I've always been that way, forever questioning each day and every plea that's made that maybe when i lay my busy mind will make me prove by finding problems and reasons, that might not be true.(?)

See we got together so young,
before our real lives had begun,
but flowers don't grow up as one,
each finds its own way to the sun,
and that's exactly what we've done.

We've grown up separately too,

And for a few years now it's been the problem,
and these realisations...i wish that i could stop them,
but I've realised that love is all we have in common,
and deep down you know that's true.

But then surely that I'm still in love with you means there's something we can do....to get us through and to pursue a brand new point of view on how this gap grew... between me and you.

So there's a weight over me and i'd hate to have to leave
but in fate i don't believe and the state of you and me isn't great as you can see.....
so i'll keep thinking this through.

Spiders...System of a Down

The piercing radiant moon,
The storming of poor June,
All the life running through her hair,
Approaching guiding light,
Our shallow years in fright,
Dreams are made winding through my head,
Through my head,
Before you know,
Awake,
Your lives are open wide,
The V-chip gives them sight,
All the life running through her hair,
The spiders all in tune,
The evening of the moon,
Dreams are made winding through my head,
Through my head,
Before you know,
Awake
Through my head,
Before you know,
Before you know I will be waiting all awake,
Dreams are made winding through her hair,

David Bowies part in Under Pressure is probably in my top 3 verses from a song

'Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the (People on streets) edge of the night
And loves (People on streets) dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves

...there's so many great Bowie lyrics..
Diamond Dogs

As they pulled you out of the oxygen tent
you asked for the latest party
With your silicon hump and your ten inch stump
Dressed like a priest you was,
Todd Browning streak he was
Crawling down the alley on your hands and knee,
I'm sure you're not protected, for its plain to see
Diamond Dogs are poachers, and they hide behind trees
Hunt you to the ground they will,
mannequins with kill appeal

[Ammi]

Changes...David Bowie

I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence and
So the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware
of what they're going through

[King Gizzard]

Joni Mitchell...Both Sides Now

Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds * that way

But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now

From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As ev'ry fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way

But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away

I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way

But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day

I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all
I've looked at life from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all

...just that one song Nathan

[Josy]

You gotta operate the easy way
"I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way
sellin' crack to the kid. " I gotta get paid,"
Well hey, well that's the way it is

The bit in bold never fails to make me smile: coz it's so true!

ELTON JOHN: SAD SONGS.
Guess there are times when we all need to share a little pain
And ironing out the rough spots
Is the hardest part when memories remain
And it's times like these when we all need to hear the radio
`Cause from the lips of some old singer
We can share the troubles we already know

Turn them on, turn them on
Turn on those sad songs
When all hope is gone
Why don't you tune in and turn them on


They reach into your room
Just feel their gentle touch
When all hope is gone
Sad songs say so much


If someone else is suffering enough to write it down
When every single word makes sense
Then it's easier to have those songs around
The kick inside is in the line that finally gets to you
and it feels so good to hurt so bad
And suffer just enough to sing the blues


Sad songs, they say
Sad songs, they say
Sad songs, they say
Sad songs, they say so much

[Bollo]

Baddie’s bound by ancient codes of decency and secrecy
He understands about stabbing backs and shaking hands
So if or when you’re behind bars or in front of them as you are
Look out for the man who’ll bum your wife and then shake your hand

Oh you’ve been here before, you fell in love and carried her over the threshold
Thinking, she’s far too good looking to do the cooking
Now, but that’s twenty years ago...twenty years ago

Thats a lousy life for the washed up wife of a permanently plastered, pissed up bastard
a lousy life for the washed up wife of a permanently plastered, pissed up bastard
a lousy life for the washed up wife of a permanently plastered, pissed up bastard
Lousy life, lousy life

Kid was singing will I ever be free, does this town hold no more for me
Club Tropicana the drinks are free, stick one in his face for me

That's Life Frank Sinatra

That's life, that's what people say.
You're riding high in April,
Shot down in May.
But I know I'm gonna change their tune,
When I'm right back on top in June.

That's life, funny as it seems.
Some people get their kicks,
Steppin' on dreams
But I just can't let it get me down,
Cause this big old world keeps spinnin' around.

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I've been up and down and over and out
But I know one thing:
Each time I find myself flat on my face,
I pick myself up and get back in the race.

That's life, I can't deny it,
I thought of quitting,
But my heart just won't buy it.
Cause if I didn't think it was worth a try,
I'd have to roll myself up in a big ball and die.

all of that is pretty nice

Little Plastic Castle

In a coffee shop in a city
Which is every coffee shop in every city
On a day which is every day
I picked up a magazine
Which is every magazine
Read a story, and then forgot it right away
They say goldfish have no memory
I guess their lives are much like mine
And the little plastic castle
Is a surprise every time
And it's hard to say if they're happy
But they don't seem much to mind
From the shape of your shaved head
I recognized your silhouette
As you walked out of the sun and sat down
And the sight of your sleepy smile
Eclipsed all the other people
As they paused to sneer at the two girls
From out of town
I said, look at you this morning
You are, by far, the cutest
But be careful getting coffee
I think these people wanna shoot us
Or maybe there's some kinda local competition here
To see who can be the rudest
People talk
About my image
Like I come in two dimensions
Like lipstick is a sign of my declining mind
Like what I happen to be wearing
The day that someone takes a picture
Is my new statement for all of womankind
I wish they could see us now
In leather bras and rubber shorts
Like some ridiculous new team uniform
For some ridiculous new sport
Quick someone call the girl police
And file a report
In a coffee shop in a city
Which is every coffee shop in every city
On a day which is every day

The love you take is equal to the love you make.
