- Pictures of Matchstick MenVer letra
[X]When I look up to the skiesletra de Pictures of Matchstick Men
I see your eyes a funny kind of yellow
I rush home to bed I soak my head
I see your face underneath my pillow
I wake next morning tired still yawning
See your face come peeking through my window
Pictures of matchstick men and you
Mirages of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you
[guitar intro]
Windows echo your reflection
When I look in their direction gone
When will this haunting stop
Your face it just wont leave me a-lone
Pictures of matchstick men and you
Mirages of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you
You in the sky you with this guy you make men cry you lie
You in the sky you with this guy you make men cry you lie
[guitar intro]
Pictures of matchstick men, Pictures of matchstick... - Ice in the SunVer letra
[X]I'm not a little boy, I've lived alone and never loved so moreletra de Ice in the Sun
But when she touches me I'm on the way, I'm underneath the floor
Like ice in the sun I melt away
Whenever she comes I melt away
Like in in the sun I melt away
I sit down in a chair and read a book as if I couldn't there
But she is in a room and I must look I see her everywhere
Like ice in the sun I melt away
Whenever she comes I melt away
Like in in the sun I melt away
She opens up her eyes as if to speak
She looks at me and I am weak
Her eyes they seem much bigger than before
I cannot think anymore
Like ice in the sun I melt away
Whenever she comes I melt away
Like in in the sun I melt away
Like ice in the sun I melt away
Whenever she comes I melt away
Like ice in the sun I melt away - Down the DustpipeVer letra
[X]Heading down the back turnpike, signposts are pointing westletra de Down the Dustpipe
Fell into the lonely dustpipe, hope my pick-up can stand the test
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na
Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my jeans
Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town like New Orleans
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na
Guess I didn't make it in the city, but that's just the way that it goes
'Cos there's a lotta lunatics, crazy ghostmen, baby, don't like the shape of my nose
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na
Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my jeans
Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town like New Orleans
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na
Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my jeans
Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town like New Orleans

- Paper PlaneVer letra
[X]Riding on a big white butterflyletra de Paper Plane
I turned my back away towards the sky
I closed my eyes to look for something
Saw myself as really nothing
Then I realised my butterfly
Wasn't really up there with me
We all make mistakes, forgive me
Would you like to ride my butterfly
Riding on a long blue paperplane
Getting seasick, sorry once again
Landing strip is getting nearer
Hope the foglifts, make it clearer
Then I realised my paperplane
Wasn't really up there with me
We all make mistakes, forgive me
Would you like to ride my paperplane
Riding in a three grand Deutche car
A to B is often very far
Home is near, but such a long way
Legs and heads all feel the wrong way
Then I realised my Deutche car
Is only there to get me somewhere
Even so I really do care
Would you like to ride my Deutche car - Mean GirlVer letra
[X]Now I'm a sad one, and she was a bad oneletra de Mean Girl
A mean, mean girl
I never had one as greedy as that one
A mean, mean girl
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
She said I was the first but there were many more
She was a big one, a met-at-a-gig once
A mean, mean girl
I felt a sick one, she was a quick one
A mean, mean girl
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
She said I was the first but there were many more
Now I'm a sad one, and she was a bad one
A mean, mean girl
I never had one as greedy as that one
A mean, mean girl
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
She said I was the first but there were many more
She was a big one, a met-at-a-gig once
A mean, mean girl
I felt a sick one, she was a quick one
A mean, mean girl
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
She said I was the first but there were many more - CarolineVer letra

[X]Spent a long, long evening in a low down honky-tonk barletra de Break the Rules
Pulled a low down lady with a long black honky-tonk car
I asked no questions, I got no lies
A one off winner, I didn't want any ties
And I knew it wasn't right
Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules
Took me down on the highway doing too many miles an hour
And by the way she motored thought we might have made the Eiffel
Tower
She stopped the motor by her own front door
I knew she'd done it so many times before
But I was off of the floor
But everybody has to sometimes break the rules
I woke up next morning feeling kind of up and down
'Cos I did not know if I was in or out of the town
Then I saw the face from the night before
My purse was empty lying there on the floor
But like I told you before
That, everybody has to sometimes break the rules
I spend a low down evening sitting high on a honky-tonk stool
And I spent my money like a low down honky-tonk fool
But everybody has to sometimes break the rules
Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules
Yes, everybody has to sometimes break the rules - Down DownVer letra

Again again again again
Again again again and deeper and down
Down down deeper and down

Get down - Roll over Lay DownVer letra
[X]When I got home that night early one morningletra de Roll over Lay Down
Seeing the note written in ink pinned to the door
Drinking the drink cold from the fridge on the table
I drank a toast you were the most the night before
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over it's a long way where I've been
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over lay down
When I get home tomorrow night after this morning
Show me the care you showed in the note the night before
Maybe I won't take a drink from the table
Reckon I'll lay me straight down on the floor
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over it's a long way where I've been
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over lay down
When I get home tomorrow night after this morning
Show me the day, show me the note the night before
Maybe I won't take a drink from the table
Reckon I'll lay me straight down on the floor
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over it's a long way where I've been
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over lay down - RainVer letra
[X]How can I see what I'm needing forletra de Rain
How can I give what I gave before
How can you tell me that you want me to stay
How can I stay when I'm trying to say
That I can't live without the rain
Yes I can't live without the rain
How can I feel what I'm trying to feel
How can I move when I'm heel to heel
You're always shouting about the doubt in my eyes
But I can't answer 'cos my eyes are so dry
Now I can't live without the rain
Yes I can't live without the rain
Now I can't live without the rain
That's falling on my head
Rain that's falling on my head
Rain that's falling
Rain that's falling
Rain that's falling on my head
I started thinking back to you know when
I'd like to send a line but then again
How can I write you when there ain't no light?
I'm feeling tired tonight but that is all right
Now I can't live without the rain
Yes I can't live without the rain - Mystery SongVer letra
[X]I see that look on your faceletra de Mystery Song
I see that look on your face
I see that look on your face, oh-oh-oh
The boys know what you're giving, you give the boys such a lot of fun
And by the way that you make a living you've got the boys all on the run
S.T.'s showing, you really got me going maybe you can give me a price
I wanna try it, yeah I wanna buy it, tell me would you treat me nice
Oh my legs are shaking, oh my heart is breaking
I'm just feeling like a boy
Now I just can't slow down, gotta get in, go down
Have my share of what a joy
Now I've got your name and number, I like to look upon your face
And now you know that I wanna take you, give me the time you can name
the place
Call me honey, you can take my money, baby we can make a deal
I really mean it, gotta get between it, do you know the way I feel?
Oh I'm feeling kinda like I've gotta find a way to make you understand
Oh I know you're lying and your love I'm buying
Oh I'm feeling like a man
The boys know what you're giving, you give the boys such a lot of fun
And by the way that you make a living you've got the boys all on the run
S.T.'s showing, really got them going, you can even say the price
They'll wanna try it, even wanna buy it if you really treat them nice
But I'd rather take you, show that I can make you
Good enough for just one man
Oh I'm feeling kinda like I've gotta find a
Way to make you understand - Wild Side of Life

- Again and AgainVer letra
[X]Once upon a time not so very long agoletra de Again and Again
There wasn't such a thing as a rock'n'roll show
You had to sit at home and listen to the radio
Then came a man with a rockin' guitar
Found himself a beat and he played it near and far
Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll
Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
He travelled round the world in a rock-n-roll band
He stood there like a giant with a guitar in his hand
Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll
Nobody cared about the clothes he would wear
Nobody cared about the colour of his hair
Everybody came to see and let the good times roll
Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Now we've got the rhythm in us now we've got the rock
Time didn't matter never living by the clock
Everybody came to hear him playing his rock-n-roll
Then came a line when the music didn't rhyme
He couldn't find the rhyme 'cos he couldn't find the time
But still the people came to listen to the good times roll
Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? - Whatever You WantVer letra

[X]Easy when you're number oneletra de Living on an Island
Everybody say you're having fun
Smiling for the public eye
When your body say you wanna die
Living on an island
Looking at another line
Waiting for my friend to come
And we'll get high
Hugh he got a real nice place
Cruxie gonna be there soon
And I just want to see his face
I'm getting lonely in my empty room
Living on an island
Working at another line
Waiting for my friend to come
And we'll get high
Passing time away in blue skies
Thinking of the smile in her eyes
Easy, it's easy
Living on an island
Oh boy, we're having fun
Living on an island
Thinking 'bout the things I've done
Living on an island
Searching for an other line
Waiting for my friend to come
And we'll get high
Waiting for my friend to come
And we'll get high
I said we're gonna get high
Yeah, we're gonna get high
We're gonna touch the sky

- LiesVer letra
[X]I had another drink after another drink and then I tried to crawl to the doorletra de Lies
I had another smoke after another joke and then I couldn't take any more
It didn't change a thing, not any single thing, when someone tried to tell me for sure
I heard another voice that said I wasn't in a dream
I read a word or two about everything
I never knew the way that it oughta have been
They never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes they won't go away
And the times that I tried are the times that I find they don't show today
But you make me feel so good
I woke up after four, still lying on the floor, and waiting to be carried away
I woke up once again, a little after ten, will things be any better today
It doesn't change you see, it only changes me, well someone tried to tell me I'm sure
I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
I never knew the way that it oughta have been
They never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that I find they don't show today
But you make me feel so good
I'm going back to school, I'm gonna check the rule, and see if I get carried away
I'm going back again, I'm gonna try again, don't listen what the people might say
It doesn't change a thing, not any single thing, well someone tried to tell me for sure
I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
I never knew the way that it oughta have been
They never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that I find they don't show today
But you make me feel so good
I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
I never knew the way that it oughta have been
They never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that I find they don't show today
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that I find they don't show today
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that I find they don't show today

[X]Everybody was talkin' to me like I was a childletra de Dear John
In their words I could hear them saying it's just a matter of time
Any way it's a long, long race been run
Anyway it's a sad, sad song been sung
Dear John goodbye she said, sometimes it's hard she said
Dear John I've broken away
Vanity is a hard old lady, you can't read her mind
I'm a fool but I don't fool easy while you're foolin' around
Anyway I can hold my own tonight
I admit I was wrong and you were right

- Marguerita TimeVer letra
[X]Captured my heart, captured my memoryletra de Marguerita Time
Captured a time for me, I could see
A time for me was gonna be
Deep in my heart, deep in my memory
Deep in a part of me, heart of me
Meant to be history
Could it be that I'm still wondering
I never knew what had happened to me
I didn't think it was true
That I could be just like anyone else
I'll take my chance with you
Picture a dream, picture a fantasy
Picture the mood of me, mystery
You and me, a mystery
Lost in a dream, lost in a fantasy
Lost in what seemed to be dreams to me
Seemed to be, had to be
Couldn't find no other reason
I never knew what had happened to me
I didn't think it was true
That I could be just like anyone else
I'll take my chance with you
Let's have a drink, it's Marguerita time
It's Marguerita time, after nine
Summertime, anytime
You'll still always find me wondering
I never knew what had happened to me
I didn't think it was true
That I could be just like anyone else
I'll take my chance with you - Going Down Town TonightVer letra
[X]I'm going down town tonight, I'm gonna find myself a dreamletra de Going Down Town Tonight
I'm gonna dress up right, and be the best they've ever seen
You can tell from their eyes, you can tell from their eyes
That they're never impressed, that they're never impressed
From the way they walk round, from the way they walk round
They are used to the best, they are used to the best
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Why let them break you in with self-sophisticated praise
'Cos when the cards are low you see the smile come on their face
If you speak the right words, if you speak the right words
They will hear what you say, they will hear what you say
They will take your attention, just take your attention
And then turn away, and then turn away
Just one thing before you go my ladies of the night
Just one thing I have to say I've got you, and you're
Confident and debonair you move between the stars
Hungry for those staring eyes that fill your waking hours
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Your face is all run dry with all the echoes of the night
And so I'm home alone, I wash my head and hold on tight.
If you speak the right words, if you speak the right words
They will hear what you say, they will hear what you say
They will take your attention, just take your attention
And then turn away, and then turn away - Wanderer

- Red SkyVer letra
[X]I was out on the highwayletra de Red Sky
I was out on my feet
I was tired and hungry
I was late for the meet.
I had a red sky behind me
I had the bad guys on my tail
I had a hundred different reasons
To keep me falling awake
I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you
I had the desert on both sides now
I had the lights in my eyes
Of the town I remember
Up ahead in the cold black sky
I had a red sky behind me
I had the bad guys on my tail
I had a hundred different reasons
To keep me falling awake
I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you
Well I remember that old saying 'bout how good tomorrow will be
But will I be lucky to see with a red sky's lucky for me
In my dreams there is a picture of me in a big gold frame
And the poeple that I've never seen are pointing at my name
I had a red sky behind me
I had the bad guys on my tail
I had a hundred different reasons
To keep me falling awake
I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you
I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you - In the Army NowVer letra
[X]A vacation in a foreign land, Uncle Sam does the best he canletra de In the Army Now
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Now you remember what the draft man said, nothing to do all day but stay in bed
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
You'll be the hero of the neighbourhood, nobody knows that you've left for good
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Smiling faces as you wait to land, but once you get there no-one gives a damn
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Hand grenades flying over your head
Missiles flying over your head, if you want to survive get out of bed
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Shots ring out in the dead of night, the sergeant calls 'Stand up and fight!'
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
You've got your orders better shoot on sight, your finger's on the trigger but it don't seem right
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Night is falling and you just can't see, is this illusion or reality?
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army, in the army now
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Oh-oo-oh you're in the army, in the army now

- When You Walk in the RoomVer letra
[X]I can feel a new expression on my faceletra de When You Walk in the Room
I can feel a glowing sensation taking place
I can hear the guitars playing lovely tunes
Every time that you walk in the room
I close my eyes for a second and pretend it's me you want
Meanwhile I try to act so nonchalant
I feel the summer's night with a magic moon
Every time that you walk in the room
Baby it's a dream come true
Standing right alongside of you
Wish I could show you how much I care
But I only have the nerve to stare
I can feel there's something pounding in my brain
Just anytime that someone speaks your name
Trumpets sound and I hear thunder boom
Every time that you
Every time that you
Every time that you walk in the room
Walk in the room
Walk in the room
