I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock I am an island

Grannmarie Sun 01-Jan-23 00:34:48

Now that you're gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dreams I hold
Is a band of gold.

dayvidg Sat 31-Dec-22 22:03:58

I want to live
I want to give
I've been a miner
For a heart of gold
It's these expressions
I never give
That keep me searching
For a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

Alioop Sat 31-Dec-22 19:03:59

Once I had love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, loves gone behind

Once had love and it was divine
Soon found out I was losing my mind
Seemed like the real thing, but I was so blind
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

dayvidg Sat 31-Dec-22 18:12:49

Though the rose is fair
Don't pluck it as you pass
For a fire will consume your hair
And your eyes will turn to glass
Your eyes will turn to glass
In the willow's shade
Don't lie to hear it weep
For its tears of gold and jade
Will drown you as you sleep

Caleo Sat 31-Dec-22 13:29:34

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire, yeah

Alioop Sat 31-Dec-22 12:25:22

I can cast a spell of secrets you can tell
Mix a special brew, put fire inside of you
Anytime you feel danger or fear
Then instantly I will appear, 'cause
I'm every woman
It's all in me
Anything you want done baby
I do it naturally

Caleo Sat 31-Dec-22 12:25:00

Chorus: Keep right on to the end of the road
Keep right on to the end
Though the way be long, let your heart be strong
Keep right on round the bend
Though your tired and weary still journey on
Till you come to your happy abode
Where all the love you've been dreaming of
Will be there at the end of the road.

dayvidg Sat 31-Dec-22 12:12:24

Tell her I'll be waiting
In the usual place
With the tired and weary
And there's no escape
To need a woman
You've got to know
How the strong get weak
And the rich get poor
Slave to love
Oh
Slave to love

Caleo Sat 31-Dec-22 12:04:08

Cigareetes and whusky and wild, wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane
Cigareetes and whusky and wild, wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane
Once, I was happy and had a good wife
I had enough money to last me for life
I met with the gal and we went on a spree
She started me smokin' and drinkin' whusky
Cigareetes and whusky and wild, wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane
Cigareetes and whusky and wild, wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane
Now, I am feeble and broken with age
The lines on my face make a well-written page
I'm leavin' this message, how sad but how true
On women and whusky and what they can do
Cigareetes and whusky and wild, wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane
Cigareetes and whusky and wild, wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane
Right on the cross at the head of my grave
For women and whusky, here lies a poor slave
Take warning, dear stranger, take warning, dear friend
Then write in big letters, these words at the end
Cigareetes and whusky and wild, wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane
Cigareetes and whusky and wild, wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane

Alioop Sat 31-Dec-22 11:46:10

Well I'm running down the road
Tryin' to loosen my load
I've got seven women in my mind
Four that want to own me
Two that want to stone me
One says she's a friend of mine

Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
Don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
And take it easy

dayvidg Sat 31-Dec-22 11:19:33

I'm gonna sing those songs that offend the censors
Gonna pop my pills from a Pez dispenser
I'll get washed-up singers writing all my songs
Lip sync 'em every night, so I don't get 'em wrong
Well, we all just wanna be big rockstars
And live in hilltop houses, driving 15 cars
The girls come easy, and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny, 'cause we just won't eat

SachaMac Fri 30-Dec-22 22:58:18

Well, we're big rock singers
We got golden fingers
And we're loved everywhere we go ("That sounds like us")
We sing about beauty and we sing about truth
At ten thousand dollars a show (right)
We take all kinds of pills that give us all kind of thrills
But the thrill we've never known
Is the thrill that'll getcha when you get your picture
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone

dayvidg Fri 30-Dec-22 19:34:52

You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hanging out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging your next meal
How does it feel, how does it feel?
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone

Alioop Fri 30-Dec-22 13:09:32

I did not have the time
I did not have the nerve
To ask you how you feel
Is this what you deserve?
When it's all to late
It's all too late
Change
You can change

SachaMac Fri 30-Dec-22 11:41:15

Baby my love is on the line
Baby don't change your mind
Don't change it
Be strong and leave the past behind
Baby don't change your mind

Alioop Fri 30-Dec-22 08:02:30

I'll make you happy baby, just wait and see
For every kiss you give me, I'll give you three
Oh since the day I saw you
I have been waiting on you
You know I will adore you 'til eternity

dayvidg Thu 29-Dec-22 18:16:44

You need cooling
Baby I'm not fooling
I'm gonna send ya
Back to schooling
A-way down inside
A-honey you need it
I'm gonna give you my love
I'm gonna give you my love
Want to whole lotta love

Alioop Thu 29-Dec-22 16:41:13

I know that I said there'd be no one else
I know that I said I'd be true
But baby, I burned Cupid's arrow
And here's the short and narrow
I've nothing left to offer you

I'm all cried out
You took a whole lot of loving for
A handful of nothing
All cried out
It's hard to give you something when
You're pushing and a shoving me around

poppysmum Thu 29-Dec-22 12:29:58

if listened long enough to you
Id find a way to believe that its all true
knowing that you lied straight-faced while I cried
still, I look for a reason to believe

when I was escaping my first marriage this song seemed so true to me

MiniMoon Thu 29-Dec-22 12:02:02

Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile
The girl with the kaleidoscope eyes
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds

SachaMac Thu 29-Dec-22 09:57:41

Very superstitious
Writing's on the wall
Very superstitious
Ladder's 'bout to fall
13-month-old baby
Broke the looking glass
Seven years of bad luck
The good things in your past
When you believe in things
That you don't understand
Then you suffer.
Superstition ain't the way, yeah

dayvidg Thu 29-Dec-22 09:51:48

I'm not superstitious, about ya
But I can't take no chance
You got me spinnin' baby
You know that I'm in a trance
'Cause your love, is better
Than any love I know
It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightenin'
Oh you better knock, knock, knock
On wood, baby

Alioop Thu 29-Dec-22 05:19:08

Well you can knock me down, step on
my face
Slander my name all over the place
Do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh honey, lay off of my shoes

dayvidg Wed 28-Dec-22 23:31:02

Is it worth it?
A new winter coat and shoes for the wife
And a bicycle on the boy's birthday.
It's just a rumor that was spread around town
By the women and children, soon we'll be shipbuilding

SachaMac Wed 28-Dec-22 21:50:11

Golden brown, texture like sun
Lays me down, with my mind she runs
Throughout the night, no need to fight
Never a frown with golden brown
Every time, just like the last
On her ship tied to the mast
To distant lands takes both my hands
Never a frown with golden brown
