Elvis Presley - Devil in Disguise
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emjLXdsj6xA
You look like an angel
Walk like an angel
Talk like an angel
But I got wise
You're the devil in disguise
Oh yes you are
The devil in disguise

Alice Cooper - Poison
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qq4j1LtCdww
I wanna love you but I better not touch (don't touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison, running through my veins
You're poison
I don't want to break these chains

Silver, blue, gold ~ Bad Company

Silver Blue and Gold by Bad Company
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdvI4G11eBk

In the beginning, I believed every word that you said,
Now that you're gone my world is in shreds
Oh, you loved me and left me,
You took all the things that I needed so bad,
I'm standing here wondering where is the love that I had?
Oh, give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told,
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue
In the beginning, yeah,
There was something of love that was mine,
Now that it's gone, whoa, I'm cryin'
Oh, the time that it takes for a love to grow cold is a wonder to me,
I'm walkin' around with my head hangin' down
Tell me where is she?
Give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told,
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue
Don't forsake me 'cause I love you
Don't forsake me 'cause I love you
Give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue
Give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue
Now, give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue, yeah
Oh, don't forsake me 'cause I love you
Don't forsake me 'cause I love you, yeah

Not exactly my music, but heard this in the supermarket once and thought it fit:

Crazy in Love

(...)

I look and stare so deep in your eyes
I touch on you more and more every time
When you leave, I'm begging you not to go
Call your name two, three times in a row
Such a funny thing for me to try to explain
How I'm feeling and my pride is the one to blame
'Cause I know I don't understand
Just how your love can do what no one else can

Got me looking so crazy right now, your love's
Got me looking so crazy right now (your love)
Got me looking so crazy right now, your touch
Got me looking so crazy right now (your touch)
Got me hoping you'll page me right now, your kiss
Got me hoping you'll save me right now
Looking so crazy, your love's
Got me looking, got me looking so crazy in love

(...)

I won't run away no more, I promise
Even when I get bored, I promise
Even when you lock me out, I promise
I say my prayers every night, I promise

I don't wish that I'm spread, I promise
The tantrums and the chilling chats, I promise

Even when the ship is wrecked, I promise
Tie me to the rotten deck, I promise

I won't run away no more, I promise
Even when I get bored, I promise

Even when the ship is wrecked, I promise
Tie me to the rotten deck, I promise

I won't run away no more, I promise

Make me feel like a beggar
Make me feel like a thief
Make me feel like a battle that cannot end in peace
Make me feel like running until I've lost my nerve
Make me feel like crying tears I don't deserve

Words as Weapons


All I really want is something beautiful to say
Keep me locked up in your broken mind
I keep searchin, never been able to find a
Light behind your dead eyes
Not anything at all
You keep living in your own lie, ever deceitful and ever unfaithful
Keep me guessin, keep me terrified
Take everything from my world
Say can you help me right before the fall
Take what you can and leave me to the wolves
Keep me dumb, keep me paralyzed
Why try swimming? I'm drowning in fables
You're not that saint that you externalize
You're not anything at all
It's oh-so playful when you demonize
To spit out the hateful, you're willing and able
Words are weapons I'd be terrified
You're nothing in my world
Say can you help me right before the fall
Take what you can and leave me to the wolves
All I really want is something beautiful to say
Keep me guessin, keep me terrified
All I really want is something beautiful to say
You keep livin' in your own lie
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away, I wanna live forever!
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away, I wanna live forever!
You keep living in your own lie
Keep me guessin, keep me terrified
All I really want is something beautiful to say
Say can you help me right before the fall
Take what you can and leave me to the wolves
All I really want is something beautiful to say
Words are weapons I'd be terrified
All I really want is something beautiful to say
Keep me guessin, keep me terrified
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away, I wanna live forever!
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away, I wanna live forever!

Bizet's L'amour est un oiseau rebelle, better known as Habanera: www.youtube.com/embed/KJ_HHRJf0xg

How do you guys embed YouTube videos?

Translation:

Love is a rebellious bird
that nobody can tame,
and you call him quite in vain
if it suits him not to come.

Nothing helps, neither threat nor prayer.
One man talks well, the other's quiet;
it's the other one that I prefer.
He's silent but I like his looks.

Love! Love! Love! Love!

Love is a gypsy's child,
it has never, ever, known a law;
love me not, then I love you;
if I love you, you'd best beware! etc.

The bird you thought you had caught
beat its wings and flew away ...
love stays away, you wait and wait;
when least expected, there it is!

All around you, swift, so swift,
it comes, it goes and then returns ...
you think you hold it fast, it flees
you think you're free, it holds you fast.

Love! Love! Love! Love!

Love is a gypsy's child,
it has never, ever, known a law;
love me not, then I love you;
if I love you, you'd best beware!

Roaches in the Sink
Alice Donut

Roaches in the sink, I'm cooking something dead
She's holding my mistakes up over my head
I'm simmering my meal with utter patience
She's screaming out bleeding verbal mutilations
A fed up Serbian kills Archduke Ferdinand
Unhinging the wrath of millions
Time to drink myself into Oblivion

Stagger down the hall, open up the door
Ripped up photographs are scattered across the floor
Severed pieces of me
Pieces of my faulty personality
I walk inside the room, She's staring hard in rage
With a stern moral expression
My future's looking
Unpleasant

I can't afford this psychotic trauma pain thing
I can't afford it anymore
I can't afford the overwhelming weirdness

A murderous silence, she stares down at her feet
I take this as a cue, that I'm supposed to speak
In words of heartfelt conviction
And kneel before the priest
For my act of contrition

Most of you know Rhett Miller from his hit "Come Around". He is a local boy and still rocks the local venues. This is a good example (below).

The irony of this song is fitting for all of us. He sings about Victoria Lee's short comings:

This is the story of Victoria's heart You might think it's stupid, but I still think it's art She lost her lover to an accident at sea She pushed him overboard and ended up with me

But the chorus is:

And in the end you'll know, Victoria don't go. Victoria, Victoria don't go

Sound familiar?

"Victoria Don't Go"

This is the story of Victoria Lee
She started off on Percodan and ended up with me
She lived in Berkeley 'til the earthquake shook her loose
She lives in Texas now where nothin' ever moves

Victoria you talk so low that no one else can hear
Unless you point your megaphone directly at their ear
This is the story of Victoria Lee
She started on Rohypinol and ended up with me

You'd like to think they're your friends, but they're not your friends
And in the end a friend's the one you'll never know, oh don't you know?
You'd like to think you're groovy, it's your movie, you see through me, but it's true
And in the end you'll know, Victoria don't go. Victoria, Victoria don't

This is the story of Victoria's heart
You might think it's stupid, but I still think it's art
She lost her lover to an accident at sea
She pushed him overboard and ended up with me

Victoria, you dance so fast that no one else can see
Victoria I hope you use just one more dance for me
This is the story of Victoria's heart
It's a really big one, and I don't know where to start
(Occasionally used on early versions of "Victoria Lee")

My Experience to a T with the recycling before I knew what was going on.

Barely Breathing
Duncan Sheik
I know what you're doing
I see it all too clear
I only taste the saline
When I kiss away your tears
You really had me goin'
Wishin' on a star
The black holes that surround you
Are heavier by far
I believed in your confusion
You were so completely torn
It must've been that yesterday
Was the day that I was born
There's not much to examine
There's nothing left to hide
You really can't be serious
If you have to ask me why
I say goodbye
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
And worth the price, the price that I would pay
And everyone keeps asking, "What's it all about?"
I used to be so certain and I can't figure out
What is this attraction?
I only feel the pain
There's nothing left to reason and only you to blame
Will it ever change?
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
And worth the price, the price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway
I've come to find
I may never know
Your changing mind
Is it friend or foe?
I rise above
Or sink below
With every time
You come and go
Please don't
Come and go
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
And worth the price, the price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway
And I know what you're doin'
I see it all too clear

Lover’s Cross by Jim Croce

You really gotta hand it to ya
'Cause girl you really tried
But for every time that we spent laughin'
There were two times that I cried
And you were tryin' to make me your martyr
And that's the one thing I just couldn't do
'Cause baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you
