Sit beside the breakfast table
Think about your troubles

Pour yourself a cup o' tea
Then think about the bubbles

You can take your teardrops
And drop 'em in a teacup
Take 'em down to the riverside
And throw 'em over the side
To be swept up by a current
Then taken to the ocean
To be eaten by some fishes
Who were eaten by some fishes
And swallowed by a whale
Who grew so old...
He decomposed...

doo...

doo...

doo...


He died and left his body
To the bottom of the ocean
Now everybody knows
That when a body decomposes
The basic elements
Are given back to the ocean
And the sea does what it oughta
And soon there's salty water
(not too good for drinking...)
'Cause it tastes just like a teardrop
(so they run it through a filter...)
And it comes out from a faucet
(and it pours into a teapot...)
Which is just about to bubble... now....

Think about your troubles!

ah...

This old town is filled with sin
It will swallow you in
If you've got some money to burn

Take it home right away
You've got three years to pay
But Satan is waiting his turn

The scientists say
It will all wash away
But we don't believe any more

Cause we've got our recruits
And our green mohair suits
So please show your I.D. At the door

This old earthquake's gonna leave me in the poor house
It seems like this whole town's insane
On the thirty-first floor a gold plated door
Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain

A friend came around
Tried to clean up this town
His ideas made some people mad

But he trusted his crowd
So he spoke right out loud
And they lost the best friend they had

This old earthquake's gonna leave me in the poor house
It seems like this whole town's insane
On the thirty-first floor a gold plated door
Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain

On the thirty-first floor a gold plated door
Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain...

Deep inside of me
It's yearning
But I'm going to set it free

I'm gonna win in sin city
Where the lights are bright
Do the town tonight
I'm gonna win in sin city

Ladders and snakes
Ladders give, snakes take
Rich man, poor man, beggarman, thief
Ain't got a hope in hell, that's my belief

So spin that wheel, cut that pack
And roll those loaded dice

I met a girl from Venus, and her insides were lined in gold
Well, she did what she did... said "How was it, kid?"
She was politely told:

"Pretty good, not bad, I can't complain...
 But actually everything is just about the same."

Moonlight makes me dizzy

He rode a blazing saddle
He wore a shining star
His job, to offer battle
To bad men near and far
He conquered fear and he conquered hate
He turned dark night into day
He made his blazing saddle
A torch to light the way!

When outlaws ruled the west
And fear fills the land
A cry went up for a man with guts
To take the west in hand
They needed a man who was brave and true
With justice for all as his aim
Then out of the sun rode a man with a gun
And Bart.... was his name
yes, Bart was his name!

He rode a blazing saddle
He wore a shining star
His job, to offer battle
To bad men near and far
He conquered fear and he conquered hate
He turned dark night into day!
He made his blazing saddle
A torch to light the way!

P.O.V. WALTZ
(Harry Nilsson)


[Point, The]

And suddenly, the strangest things are happening
I hope it's not the last time (last time...)
I had a drink or two an hour so ago
It made me think of you
And now I know it's not the last time (last time...)

/ G - - - / D - - - / D7 - / / G - - - /

Flying high up in the sky, I wonder why
I think I'm gonna fall, think I'm gonna fall
But there I go again, I'm up again, there I go again
I hope this isn't all

/ G7 - - - / E - - - / A7 - - - / D7 - - - /

Hey, but as long as were up here
We might as well stay in sweet harmony

/ G - - - C - - - / A7 - - - D7 - - - /

Yada lada lada lada, la
Yada lada lada lada-ah

/ G - - - D - - - / D7 - - - G - - - /

Flying high up in the sky
I wonder why I have to have another point of view
To see me through
But now I think I'm gonna fall...
I hope this isn't all...
And on top of that I hope it's not the last time

/ G7 - / - - C - / A7 - - - / D7 - - - / / D7 - G - G7 - /

Mm mm...

I wanna grow up to be a politician
And take over this beautiful land
I wanna grow up to be a politician
And be the old USA's number one man

I'll always be tough but I'll never be scary
I want to shoot guns and butter my bread
I want to build towns, conservate the prairie
And you can believe the future's ahead

I'll give the young the right to vote as soon as they mature
But spare the rod and spoil the child to help them feel secure
And if I win election day I might give you a job
I'll sign the bill to help the poor to show I'm not a snob

I'll open my doors; I'm chargin' no admission
And you can be sure I'll be glad to give you my hand
I wanna grow up to be a politician
And take over this beautiful land

I'll make you glad you got me in with everything I do
And I'll defend until the end the old red white and blue!
I wanna grow up to be a politician
And take over this beautiful land

And take over this beautiful land

And take over this beautiful land

If I Absolutely Had to pick One -----


Keep a fire burning in your eye
Pay attention to the open sky
You never know what will be coming down
I don't remember losing track of you
You were always dancing in and out of view
I must have thought you'd always be around
Always keeping things real by playing the clown
Now you're nowhere to be found

I don't know what happens when people die
Can't seem to grasp it as hard as I try
It's like a song I can hear playing right in my ear
That I can't sing
I can't help listening
And I can't help feeling stupid standing 'round
Crying as they ease you down
'Cause I know that you'd rather we were dancing
Dancing our sorrow away
(Right on dancing)
No matter what fate chooses to play
(There's nothing you can do about it anyway)

Just do the steps that you've been shown
By everyone you've ever known
Until the dance becomes your very own
No matter how close to yours
Another's steps have grown
In the end there is one dance you'll do alone

Keep a fire for the human race
Let your prayers go drifting into space
You never know what will be coming down
Perhaps a better world is drawing near
And just as easily it could all disappear
Along with whatever meaning you might have found
Don't let the uncertainty turn you around
(The world keeps turning around and around)
Go on and make a joyful sound

Into a dancer you have grown
From a seed somebody else has thrown
Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own
And somewhere between the time you arrive
And the time you go....
May lie a reason you were alive
But you'll never know

Fat ugly fat man swam
In a red tire made of stone
A painted lady paddled next to him
With two poodles on her lap

Garbo quietly picked a flower
While the chauffeur won his checker game
And Barrymore took a noon day nap
And diamonds fell like rain

The Cisco Kid had a bald-headed waitress
Trapped beneath a bed of brass
The French cook served them chocolate ants
And cold cuts on the grass

Louella ripped her zebra pants
In the Polo Lounge
And Errol Flynn was not let in
'Cause he was coming down

Up in Xanadu diamonds fell like rain
Citizen Kane was king; poor Citizen Kane

Valentino suddenly appeared
In his midnight blue tuxedo
Had a falcon on his shoulder
Eating chicken from his hand

Fatty Arbuckle waddled by
On his way to the bathhouse green
Frankenstein ate the leading lady
And licked the carcass clean

Up in Xanadu diamonds fell like rain
Citizen Kane was king; poor Citizen Kane

poor Citizen Kane…

If today was not a crooked highway
If tonight was not a crooked trail
If tomorrow wasn't such a long time
Then lonesome would mean nothin' to me at all.

Yes 'n' only if my own true love was waitin'
If i could hear her heart a-softly poundin'
Yes 'n' only if she was lyin' by me
I'd lie in my bed once again.

I can't see my reflection in the water
I can't speak the sounds that show no pain
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps
Or remember the sounds of my own name.

Yes 'n' only if my own true love was waitin'
If i could only hear her heart a-softly poundin'
Yes 'n' only if she was lyin' by me
Then i'd lie in my bed once again.

There's beauty in that silver singin' river
There's beauty in that rainbow in the sky
But none of these an' nothin' else can touch the beauty
That i remember in my true love's eyes.

Yes 'n' only if my own true love was waitin'
'f i could hear her heart a-softly poundin'
Yes 'n' only if she was lyin' by me
Then i'd lie in my bed once again.

Ghost
There's a letter on the desktop
That I dug out of a drawer
The last truce we ever came to
In our adolescent war
And I start to feel the fever
From the warm air through the screen
You come regular like seasons
Shadowing my dreams

And the mississippis mighty
But it starts in minnesota
At a place that you could walk across
With five steps down
And I guess thats how you started
Like a pinprick to my heart
But at this point you rush right through me
And I start to drown

And theres not enough room
In this world for my pain
Signals cross and love gets lost
And time passed makes it plain
Of all my demon spirits
I need you the most
Im in love with your ghost
Im in love with your ghost

Dark and dangerous like a secret
That gets whispered in a hush
(dont tell a soul)
When I wake the things I dreamt about you
Last night make me blush
(dont tell a soul)
And you kiss me like a lover
Then you sting me like a viper
I go follow to the river
Play your memory like a piper

And I feel it like a sickness
How this love is killing me
Id walk into the fingers
Of your fire willingly
And dance the edge of sanity
Ive never been this close
Im in love with your ghost

Unknowing captor
You never know how much you
Pierce my spirit
But I cant touch you
Can you hear it
A cry to be free
Oh Im forever under lock and key
As you pass through me

Now I see your face before me
I would launch a thousand ships
To bring your heart back to my island
As the sand beneath me slips
As I burn up in your presence
And I know now how it feels
To be weakened like achilles
With you always at my heels

This bitter pill I swallow
Is the silence that I keep
It poisons me I cant swim free
The river is too deep
Though Im baptized by your touch
I am no worse than most
In love with your ghost

You are shadowing my dreams
(in love with your ghost)
(in love with your ghost)
(in love with your ghost)

Lead vocals by Levi Stubbs




You're sweet as a honeybee
But like a honeybee stings
You've gone and left my heart in pain
All you left is our favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
It used to bring sweet memories
Of a tender love that used to be

Now it's the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
It's the same, same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone

Ah, oh a sentimental fool am I
To hear a old love song
And wanna cry
But the melody keeps haunting me
Reminding me how in love we used to be
Keep hearing the part that used to touch our hearts
Staying together forever
Darling, breaking up never

It's the same old song, can't bear to hear it
But with a different meaning since you been gone
(Oh, it hurts to hear it)
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone

Precious memories keep a lingering on
Every time I hear our favorite song
Now you've gone
Left this emptiness
I only reminisce the happiness we spent
We used to dance to the music
Make romance to the music

Now, it's the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
Now, it's the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
I, oh I
Can't bear to hear it
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
(Ooo, it breaks me up to hear it)
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone

ACDC's new album Black Ice

Don't expect anything new or cutting edge from this, it's classic ACDC, which is just fine with me. The simple, but hard hitting drum line, the 1 minute intros, the unmistakable voice of Brian Johnson, it's all there. I just wish this album came out in the summer. This is perfect driving down the highway with the windows open music.
