On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert
I pick up my money and head back into town
Driving 'cross the Waynesboro county line
I got the radio on and I'm just killing time
Working all day in my daddy's garage
Driving all night chasing some mirage
Pretty soon little girl I'm gonna take charge

The dogs on Main Street howl 'cause they understand
If I could take one moment into my hands
Mister I ain't a boy, no I'm a man
And I believe in a promised land

Springsteen "The Promised Land"

 

[bluebro69]

Does somebody know how to drive this thing
Yelled the captain as he fell to his knees
I think I mighta had a little too much today
Take me to my cabin, please

Cruisin' on a sardine boat
Loaded with crazy people
And we shall be the Santa Maria
Looking for a brave new world

(Santa Maria -- as performed by Trooper)

 

[EJunkie]

And I could hear the voice of gin whisper in my ear
Or maybe it was Sally saying "Who's the captain here?"
The Tuttle is your ship, and you surely have the right
To set the time of sail, and to stay here where it's warm
One More Night
We stoked the boilers hot
But the Tuttle she was caught
No way to get the lake to change her stubborn mind
There was no way to entice that wretched winter ice
To leave a channel open to the Silver Islet Mine
And with no coal to fire the pumps
In November all at once
The lake had drowned that mine
In the fall of 1883
Just one more load of coal would have saved the Silver Islet Mine
I know that I'm to blame, and I must bear the shame
But try to understand the nature of my crime
I was unfaithful to the lake
She raged at my mistake she wanted that mine to die

One More Night; Tanglefoot

Jump down the shelters to get away
The boys are cocking up their guns
Tell us, general, is it party time?
If it is, can we all come?

Don't think that we don't know
Don't think that we're not trying
Don't think we move too slow
It's no use after crying
Saying it's a mistake
It's a mistake
It's a mistake
It's a mistake

(Men At Work - It's a Mistake)

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications
Especially at night
I worry over situations that I know will be alright
It's just overkill
Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away

(Men At Work — Overkill)

 

[fromtheshwa]

A man in my shoes runs a light
And all the papers lied tonight
But falling over you
Is the news of the day
Angels fall like rain
And love, love, love
Is all of heaven away (Love, love, love, love, love)

Inside you the time moves and she don't fade
The ghost in you, she don't fade
Inside you the time moves and she don't fade

(Psychedelic Furs -- The Ghost In You)

 

[ogibowt]

I,m gonna tell you how it,s gonna be
You,re gonna give your love to me
i wanna love you night and day
You know my love will not fade away
My love,s bigger than a Cadillac
I try to show it and you drive me back
You,re love for me has got to be real
For you to know just how i feel
A love for real won,t fade away

Not Fade Away..Buddy Holly 1957

 

[bluebro69]

You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain
Too much love drives a man insane
You broke my will but what a thrill
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire

I laughed at love 'cause I thought it was funny
You came along and you moved me, honey
I've changed my mind, this love is fine
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire

(Great Balls of Fire -- Jerry Lee Lewis)

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

I wanna see your face in the morning sun ignite my energy
The cause and effect of you has brought new meaning in my life to me
Gunna tell a story morning glory all about the serpentine fire

(Earth, Wind & Fire — Serpentine Fire)

 

[kherg007]

And my tires were slashed and I almost crashed, but the Lord had mercy
And my machine, she's a dud, out stuck in the mud somewhere in the swamps of Jersey
Well, hold on tight, stay up all night, 'cause Rosie, I'm comin' on strong
By the time we meet the morning light, I will hold you in my arms
I know a pretty little place in Southern California, down San Diego way
There's a little cafe, where they play guitars all night and all day
You can hear them in the back room strummin'
So hold tight, baby, 'cause don't you know daddy's comin'
Everybody sing

Rosalita, jump a little higher
Senorita, come sit by my fire
I just want to be your lover, ain't no liar
Rosalita, you're my stone desire

Springsteen "Rosalita"

 

[fromtheshwa]

Making your move
You come down as fast as lightnin
Crossing the stage
And now you can feel the excitement

So, shake it up
Turn it on
Shake it up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Your daddy don`t know
What your mama`s gonna do tonight
I said your daddy don`t know
What your mama`s gonna do tonight


(Toronto - Your Daddy Don't Know)

 

[kherg007]

Uh well, dance all night play all day
Don't let nothin' get in the way
Dance all night keep the beat
Don't you worry 'bout two left feet

Shake it up
Shake it up, ooh yeah
Shake it up
Shake it up

Well dance all night 'n get real loose
You don't need no bad excuse
Dance all night with anyone
Don't let nobody pick your fun

The Cars "Shake it up"

 

[bluebro69]

'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off

Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break
And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off

(Taylor Swift -- Shake It Off)

 

[EJunkie]

You can shake it, you can break it,
You can hang it on the wall
Throw it out the window, catch it 'fore it fall
You can shake it, you can break it,
You can hang it on the wall
...it out the window, catch it 'fore it falls
My jelly, my roll, sweet mama, don't let it fall


Charley Patton; shake It and Break It

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

You tease me with your loving to play hard to get
Cuz you do know that I want ya
You walk around this town with your head all up in the sky
And you do know that I want ya
Let's dance, let's shout, shout!
Shake your body down to the ground

(The Jackson 5 — Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground))

 

[kherg007]

Well, you know you make me want to (Shout)
Kick my heels up and (Shout)

Throw my hands up and (Shout)
Throw my head back and (Shout)
Come on now (Shout)
Don't forget to say you will

Don't forget to say-yay-ay-ay-ay (SAY YOU WILL)
Say it right now baby (SAY YOU WILL)
Come On, Come On (SAY YOU WILL)
Say that a youoooo (SAY YOU WILL)

(SAY) Say that you love me
(SAY) Say that you need me
(SAY) Say that you want me
(SAY) You wanna please me (SAY)

Otis Day and the Knights "Shout"

 

[bluebro69]

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you, come on

In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really, really ought to know

Those one-track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
You shouldn't have to jump for joy

(Shout -- Tears For Fears)

 

[EJunkie]

And we are running to money
But that tailored suit and a pile of loot
Gives you a heart attack
And a long commute

And what has become of freedom?
Well I've seen some
And it's backpacks and train tracks
Not long hair or contracts

Hey, we don't need another love song
Another peace and white dove song
We need to write a fight song
A good people do what's right song

We need a scream at the night song
A scream at the night song
A scream at the night song
A scream at the night song

And I turn on the TV to see
What's going on but something's wrong
Nothing but lies I can't get along

And I'm getting to see the music
The pop charts are pop tarts
With empty songs with no heart

Hey, we don't need another love song
Another peace and white dove song
We need to write a fight song
A good people do what's right song

We need a scream at the night song
A scream at the night song
A scream at the night song
A scream at the night song

We don't need another love song
Another peace and white dove song
We need to write a fight song
A good people do what's right song

We need a scream at the night song
A scream at the night song
A scream at the night song
A scream at the night song

I wanna scream, I wanna scream at the night song
I wanna scream, I wanna scream at the night song
A scream at the night song
A scream at the night song

Scream at the Night; Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band

 

[kherg007]

Oh it's not easy to resist temptation
Walking around looking like a figment of somebody else's imagination
Taking ev'ry word she says just like an open invitation
But the power of persuasion is no match for anticipation
Like a finger running down a seam
From a whisper to a scream
So I whisper and I scream
But don't get me wrong
Please don't leave me waitin' too long
Waitin' too long
Waitin' too long
Waitin' too long
Hey

Elvis Costello "From a Whisper to a Scream"

 

[bluebro69]

I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies, something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen and all its sad goodbyes

I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you, oh

(Careless Whisper -- Wham!)
