More song lyrics 8

People are strange when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you're down

When you're strange, faces come out of the rain
When you're strange, no one remembers your name
When you're strange, when you're strange
When you're strange

You take a final look around
And then you put your house key down
Upon the table by the note
You take your handbag and your coat
You don't want too much to carry
To slow you down on the way
You picture his face in the morning
As he was going to work
Without saying a word
You saw the face of a stranger
It wasn't always like this before
His face like a stranger
You didn't know what to say
So you are going away
From the face of a stranger
And not the lover you knew before

Wake up ( wake up )
Grab a brush and put on a little makeup
Hide the scars to fade away the shake up
Why'd you leave the keys upon the table
Here you go create another fable

I don't think you trust
In my self righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to
Die

Wake up, Maggie, I think I got something to say to you
It's late September and I really should be back at school
I know I keep you amused, but I feel I'm being used
Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried anymore
You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that's what really hurts
The morning sun, when it's in your face, really shows your age
But that don't worry me none, in my eyes you're everything
I laughed at all of your jokes, my love you didn't need to coax
Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried anymore

I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
No, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Well, I wake in the morning
Fold my hands and pray for rain
I got a head full of ideas
That are drivin' me insane
It's a shame the way she makes me scrub the floor
I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more
What you say?
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more
Old woman, old woman, don't treat me so mean
You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen
I guess if you said so
I'll have to pack my things and go (that's right)
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more
What you say?
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more

A little ditty 'bout Jack & Diane
Two American kids growing up in the heart land
Jack, he's gonna be a football star
Diane's debutante, back seat of Jacky's car

Suckin' on chilli dog outside the Tastee Freez
Diane sitting on Jacky's lap
Got his hands between her knees
Jack he says
"Hey, Diane, let's run off behind the shady trees
Dribble off those Bobby Brooks
Let me do what I please"

Saying "Oh yeah
Life goes on, long after the thrill of living is gone"
Saying "Oh yeah
Life goes on, long after the thrill of living is gone"
They walk on

The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away
You know you done me wrong baby
And you'll be sorry someday

They asked me how I knew my true love was true
I, of course replied
"Something here inside cannot be denied"
They said, "Someday, you'll find all who love are blind"
When your heart's on fire
You must realize smoke gets in your eyes"

Well it's a marvelous night for a moondance baby
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
Neath the cover of the october skies
And all of the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I'm trying to please to the calling
Of your heart strings that plays often and low
And all the nights magic seem to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush

… Do you wanna dance and hold my hand
Tell me baby, I'm your lover man
Oh baby, do you wanna dance?
… Do you wanna dance under the moonlight
Hold me baby all through the night
Oh baby, do you wanna dance?
… do you, do you, do you, do you wanna dance?
Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna dance?
Do you, do you, do you, do you
Do you wanna dance?

That's why I go for that rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
Any old time you use it
It's gotta be rock and roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me

I saw him dancing there by the record machine
I knew he must be about seventeen
The beat was going strong
Playing my favorite song
And I could tell that it wouldn't be long till he was with me , yea me
And I could tell that it wouldn't be long till he was with me, yea me

Singing I love rock and roll
Put another dime in the jukebox baby
I love rock and roll
So come and take your time and dance with me

Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
Let's pretend that we're together all alone
I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low
And you can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go

ah, just a little bit longer
(Please) please, please, please, please
Tell me that you're going to
Now your daddy don't mind
And your mommy don't mind
If we have another dance, yeah
Just one more, one more time
Oh, won't you stay, just a little bit longer
Please let me hear
You say that you will, say you will
Won't you place your sweet lips to mine
Won't you say you love me all the time
oh, yeah, just a little bit longer
(Please) please, please, please, please
Tell me you're going to

I can tell by your eyes
That you've probably been crying forever
And the stats in the sky mean nothing to you
They're a mirror

I don't wanna talk about it
How you broke my heart
If I stay here just a little bit longer
If I stay here won't you listen
To my heart
Oh my heart

We never talked about it
But I hear the blame was mine
I would call you up to say I'm sorry
But I wouldn't want to waste your time
'Cause I love you, but I can't take any more
There's a look I can't describe in your eyes
If we could try, like we tried before
Would you keep on telling me those lies?
Do you remember?
(Do you remember?)
Ooh, do you remember?
(Do you remember?)

Firefly, can you see me?
Shine on, glowing, brief and brightly
Could you imagine? one summer day,
That same night be on your way
Do you remember? Hearts were too cold
Seasons have frozen us into our souls
People were sayin' the whole world is burning
Ashes have scattered too hard to turn
Upside out or inside down
False alarm, the only game in town
No man's land, the only game in town
Terrible, the only game in town

But I believe the world is burning to the ground
Oh well, I guess we're gonna find out
Let′s see how far we′ve come
Let's see how far we′ve come
Well, I believe it all is coming to an end
Oh well, I guess we're gonna pretend
Let′s see how far we've come
Let′s see how far we've come

Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come, my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together, still going strong

You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss goodnight

Do you love him as much as I love her
And will that love be strong
When old feelings start to stir
Looks like we made it
Left each other on the way to another love
Looks like we made it
Or I thought so till today
Until you are there everywhere
And all I could taste was love the way we made it

Hope you got your things together
Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we're in for nasty weather
One eye is taken for an eye

Well don't go around tonight
Well it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise

Hold tight
Wait 'til the party's over
Hold tight
We're in for nasty weather
There has got to be a way
Burning down the house
Here's your ticket, pack your bags
Time for jumpin' overboard
Transportation is here
Close enough but not too far
Maybe you know where you are
Fightin' fire with fire

Out where the river broke
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
Steam in forty five degrees

The time has come to say fair's fair
To pay the rent to pay our share
The time has come a fact's a fact
It belongs to them let's give it back

How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep while our beds are burning
How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep while our beds are burning

I keep your picture upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain that's lying there
So don't you ask me to give it back
I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me
I'm not in love, no, no
It’s because………
