People want to show me the right way to walk.
People want to show me the right way to talk.
You can keep on begging people say no.
You put on a funny face,
so the hurt doesn’t show.

I wake up and I wake up,
and what do I find?
Just another hang up
hanging on my mind.
But if someone would show me
the right way to be,
then I’d be just another man,
another man free.

I was born to be humble,
I was born to be proud,
born to stand alone, yeah,
or stand in a crowd.
I was born to be needed,
born to be free,
born to be loved, yeah,
born to be me.

I wake up and I wake up,

It hurts me when you cry
when you feel the love is gone.
Don’t give up on us when you got so much to believe in.
And so I beg you please stay yeah.

Danger in the night,
a flame that never dies
in a world of lonely faces
you need someone to survive,
a love like yours should never live alone.

Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)
we can just get excited,
stop before we go too far.
Let me be your bodyguard, (living in my protection)
we can just get ignited,
lost inside
it’s only you and me.

There’s things you shouldn’t do.
You lose your self-control.
Should the eyes of a perfect stranger
take you down to a new sensation?
Just turn back to me.

Don’t wait till it’s gone.
Don’t go where you don’t belong.
In a world of pain and sorrow
every wish is your command.
A heart like yours should always find a home, oh yeah.

I know the signs and I’m telling you you’re living on borrowed time,
but a heart needs love like a flower needs rain,
like I’m making you mine.

Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)
we can just get excited,
stop before we go too far.
Let me be your bodyguard, (living in my protection)
we can just get ignited.

What we had never known all our lives,
I pray it’s not too late,
I would die by your side, my love,
I’m the life that you save.

In this world of pain and sorrow
every wish is your command,
a heart like yours should never live alone, yeah.

I used to dream of a special one
and now I feel it coming true,
but I couldn’t let go, I’m a jealous guy,
what you’re putting me through.

Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)
we can just get excited,
stop before we go too far.

you could be a silver star that shines

It’s gonna be a blue island.
See you on a blue island.
Take you to a blue island.
 
Blue island.
 
You can see the rain.
You can feel the pain
that no part of me is going through.
 
Everybody say
we can find a way.
Do you know the place you’re going to?
 
You’re going to a blue island.
 
This is what the lonely heart must know.
This is what it takes to make it grow.
You could be a child alone.
But you may save the world.
 
Maybe it’s the words that mean goodbye.
There but for the grace of God go I.
I can see an open door that leads to my blue island.
 
Gonna be a blue island.
See you on a blue island.

Yo, yo, yo
Yo it’s the ghetto diplo’, bridgin like the Tri-Boro
Victory is endless cause we all want a hero
Blazing Saddles so stop horsing around
From sunup to sundown, it’s the world renowned
It’s hard to be real when them cats are make believe
Stop it please, come run wit deez
If you can’t feel me, then get up and leave
Cause I’m automated life flyin, Fate is on her knees
Locate the object, pinpoint my movin target
Pray for them, and bless em, like Sister Margaret
Got more alumni than the grad school of Harvard
Beat Street the movie was my all time favorite
So can you stand the smell of a black powder
My B.I. is 700, horsepower
Burnin rubber, break you off somethin proper
Love it or not, I’m the man of the hour, yeah
[singers]
Just when you thought my shine was burnin out
Them cats were down and out, in the heat of the night
There ain’t no problems baby we can’t get through
You gotta believe in me, and I’ll believe in you
Uhhh! Blue Angels, Blue Angels, Blue Angels!
Yo.. yo, yo, yo
Yo she was hot to death, like the story Macbeth
When your marked for death it’s a matter of life or death
I’ma cherish and nourish every single breath
When there’s no one left, I’ma carry your footprints
step by step, walkin through the, twentieth
century, eyes on me
When the dogs start barkin you must set them free
Go in-Between the Sheets just like the Isley’s
I’ma kill em precisely, indirectly
Choose my women wisely, Charlie’s Angels got my back
as if I was Bosley, bout to get rowdy
So pray to Mother Mary, you think this is easy?
Be a cold day in Hell before I let you come and get me
So stop actin frowsy, that’s the one-fifty
Holler if you hear me make your move if you ready
Dirty Cash, Navy Seals, reppin through your city, what?

Just when you thought my shine was burnin out
Them cats were down and out, in the heat of the night
There ain’t no problems baby we can’t get through

Uhhh! Blue Angels, Blue Angels, Blue Angels!
Yo.. yeah, yo, yo
Hey yo the way I feel now you cats can drop dead
Jump up and spread then take off them threads
You heard what I said, don’t be misled
Navy Seals what? Running over chickenheads
Run like I’m a caca, act like a bobaka
My ears shoot the street, just to take out the impostor
Tomorrow never dies when she reveals her eyes
Keep your eyes on the prize, for Pras is the prize
Tough guys get penalized, cut down to size
It’s the one that be witchu that be the true spies
Never say never when we can make it together
ReFugees are tougher than ever, what?

Where are you? I love you.

I had a dream
of a place far away.
I followed a river
where the dead man would play.
 
And I’m leaving in the morning.
And I’m leaving in the morning.
 
And I won’t die, so don’t cry, I’ll be home,
those big black diamonds that lie there for me
by the tall white mountains which lie by the sea.
 
I knew a man,
whom was tall as the sky,
followed a river
where thousands had died.
 
And he was leaving in the morning.
Oh no, he was leaving in the morning.
 
Said: If I come home and my woman has flown,
oh big black diamonds that lie there for me
by the tall white mountains which lie by the sea.
 
Oh oh oh oh oh…
Say goodbye to auld lang syne.
Say goodbye to auld lang syne.

how can I forget the way she used to love me.
I think about her in my time,
know in my mind it’s over.
 
Looks like falling,
heaven is calling my name

Funny faces loving the traces left
for me.
 
But it’s hopeless to say

People in their pride believe
it’s easier for them to leave
their problems in the arms of others,
running to their mothers.
 
Lasting love is such a funny thing,
when you’re in love you’re on the wings.
You’re not in love, it’s good for you
‘cause you can do the things you like to do.
 
It’s your big chance,
so take it, baby.
It’s your big chance,
you’ll make it, baby.
Ah.
 
When you’re high and mighty
you’ll remember how I loved you,
you’ll be thinking how you hurt me
when I needed you beside me.
 
In the night is such a lonely time,
I dream of you and that’s a sign,
it means that I am still a fool
and I am still so much in love with you.
 
It’s your big chance,
so take it, baby.
It’s your big chance,
don’t fake it, baby.
 
A big chance.
A hot chance.

Reed

I thought I’d already touched the sky
I got to know you and I don’t know why
But all of my life couldn’t mean as much
As just being touched by you

I never thought of me growing up
Got my directions but the road was rough
It’s only the dream of a teenage queen
But somehow I made it through

And I’d love to see
Those faces of those friends I left behind
And even those who spoke for me
Just trying to be kind
And no one said I love you just the way
I know you do

And I love being in love with you
Living inside your heart
The giving and the taking
You are not forsaken
I love being in love with you
Thank you just for choosing me
That we should be
Being in love forever
And ever, ever

I stare and wonder at what I found
I just discovered why the world is round
Round in a circle my arms will be
And doing the same as you
It ain’t right it’s only for you and me
Only the lonely do it seperately
Keep it alive on the food of love
But only the chosen few

In my life you see some changes in me
We listen and we grow
Any child that clings to childish things
Is trying to let go
And up to now
I’d thought I’d seen as far as I could see

And I love being in love with you
Living inside your heart
The giving and the taking
You are not forsaken
I love being in love with you
Thank you just for choosing me
That we should be
Being in love forever
And ever, ever

And I love being in love with you
Living inside your heart
The giving and the taking
You are not forsaken
I love being in love with you
Thank you just for choosing me
That we should be

I love being in love with you
Living inside your heart
The giving and the taking
You are not forsaken
I love being in love with you

For the benefit of Mr. Kite
there will be a show tonight on trampoline.
The Hendersons will all be there,
late of Pablo Fanques Fair, what a scene!

Over men and horses, hoops and garters
lastly through a hogshead of real fire!
In this way Mr. K. will challenge the world!

The celebrated Mr. K.
performs his feat on Saturday at Bishopsgate.
The Hendersons will dance and sing
as Mr. Kite flys through the ring, don’t be late!

Messrs. K and H. assure the public
their production will be second to none
and of course Henry The Horse dances the waltz!

The band begins at ten to six
when Mr. K. performs his tricks without a sound.
And Mr. H. will demonstrate
ten summersets he’ll undertake on solid ground.

Having been some days in preparation
a splendid time is guaranteed for all.
And tonight Mr. Kite is topping the bill.

And I won’t ever let you be,
you could not understand,
you never will.

And all that summer madness caused the rain.

You could not love me then

It’s gone, gone, gone, there’s truth in what I say.
It’s gone, gone, gone, there’s nothing more to say
but I’d do anything if I could do it all again.

Well, I’m an old man now and I’m born to win the race.
People won’t believe me but there’s truth in what I say.
Many hearts were broken and a lot of tears were shed.
The sky was black and the battlefield was red.

Now it’s gone, gone, gone, those years have passed away.
It’s gone, gone, gone, there’s truth in what I say.
It’s gone, gone, gone , there’s nothing more to say
but I’d do anything if I could do it all again .

Now, Stonewall Jackson stepped right up and then he said to me
He said: The battle is getting rough, son, guess we better flee.
There’s grapeshot all around us and the field is black with lead.
You better start running boy before you lose your head.

Now it’s gone, gone, gone, those years have passed away.
It’s gone, gone, gone, there’s truth in what I say.
It’s gone, gone, gone, there’s nothing more to say
but I’d do anything if I could do it all again.

Well, the cannons roared around us and the field was black with lead,
I picked a soldier dressed in blue and filled him full of lead,
I picked out six more soldiers there sitting on a mound,
I fixed my bayonet to my gun and really mowed them down.

Now, it’s gone, gone, gone, those years have passed away.
It’s gone, gone, gone, there’s truth in what I say.
It’s gone, gone, gone, there’s nothing more to say
but I’d do anything if I could do it all again,

We can shout and scream and yell all night.
It’s just a bad, bad dream.

Feel like I’m crying,

it’s all been done.

For your information,
we still own the nation,
the war’s been won.

You know you’re far too late.
Your only hangup is you hesitate.
It’s just a bad, bad dream.

Bad, bad, bad dreams.
Bad, bad, bad dreams.
Bad, bad, bad dreams.

I’m getting it to you
so you get it through you

But I found my Shangri-La
 
in a place that’s not too far,
back home.
 
 
Back home, back home,
 
ack home, back home,
 
back home, back home,
 
back home, back home,
back home…

Baby I Losing You

 BABY I’M LOSING YOU

Album:
Every time we kiss I feel that something’s missing inside.
Every little glow for me has simply died.
What has happened to the love
happened to the love, the love we knew?
Baby, I’m losing you (losing you), baby, I’m losing you,

Even in my sleep I feel the heartache creep in my dream,
All the love you had for me is gone it seems,
Oh, what have you done to me.
Made it plain to see that we are through.
Baby, I’m losing you (losing you), baby, I’m losing you.

I hate to say goodbye to you.
But, darling, what am I to do,
Just a toy to play, when you are through?

You throw away,
not me.

If you don’t need me now I’ll get along somehow in my pain.
Wish, little boy, go find another toy for your games.
And what’s happening to me, I’ll get by you see.
Now we are through.
Baby, I’m losing you (losing you), baby, I’m losing you.
Baby, I’m losing you (losing you), baby, I’m losing you.

(1975)
Here am I, one sad and lonely guy,
one shadow of the man I used to be.
Now it’s past, the love I thought would last,
you thought I had you chained and now you’re free.
 
I know it’s wrong but I’m still holding on,
still praying you will soon come back to me.
But then you go, you let your feelings show,
you said I gave you pain, and now I see.
 
But, baby, as you turn away
I will always think of what we had together.
Baby, this is just your way of breaking my heart.
And it’s easier to say goodbye,
making me fall, making me try,
try to make you stay
as you turn away.
 
Now you’re gone, this road I walk upon
is just another place where I can hide.
I’m still your man, there’s proof of who I am,
except without your love I’m dead inside.
 
But, baby, as you turn away
I will always think of what we had together.
Baby, this is just your way of breaking my heart.
And it’s easier to say goodbye,
making me fall, watching me try,
try to make you stay
as you turn away.
