We must also be permitted to bear in mind that evolution, though it may explain everything else, cannot explain itself.

Dont Explain
Billie holiday / arthur herzog jr.
Hush now, dont explain
Just say youll remain
Im glad your back, dont explain
Quiet, dont explain
What is there to gain
Skip that lipstick
Dont explain
You know that I love you
And what endures
All my thoughts of you
For Im so completely yours
Cry to hear folks chatter
And I know you cheat
Right or wrong, dont matter
When youre with me, sweet
Hush now, dont explain
Youre my joy and pain
My lifes yours love

Why Must I Always Explain?
Have to toe the line, Ive got to make the most
Spent all the years going, from pillar to post
Now Im standing on the outside and Im waitin in the rain
Tell me why must I always explain
Bared my soul to the crowd eh but oh what the cost
Most of them laughed out loud like nothings been lost
There were hypocrites and parasites and people that drain
Tell me why must I always explain
Why, why must I always explain
Over and over, over again
Its just a job you know and its no sweet lorraine
Tell me why must I always explain (alright)
Well I get up in the morning and I get my brief
I go out and stare at the world in complete disbelief
Its not righteous indignation that makes me complain
Its the fact that I always have to explain
I cant be everywhere at once, theres always somebody to see
And I never turned out to be the person that you wanted me to be
And I tell you who I am, time and time and time again
Tell me why must I always explain
Well its out on the highway and its on with the show
Always telling people things theyre too lazy to know
It can make you crazy, yeah it can drive you insane
Tell me why must I always explain.

My Heart Stops
(diane warren)
(recorded by eric carmen)
Arista as1-2264 / 1992
I tell myself
This cant be love
That Im feelin
But if I think that my world
Will be the way that it was
Im dreamin
Why do I feel so high
At the mention of your name
Why do I act so shy
Cant explain, cant explain, cant explain
But darlin
Wo-wo-wo when you go walkin by
My heart stops
My heart stops
I cant explain it
Wo-wo-wo when you look in my eye
My heart stops
My heart stops
Every time youre near
Just thinkin about you
Darlin it just does
Something to me
And when we meet on the street
I feel the flame of love
Burnin through me
I try to play it cool
And never show a sign
But I give myself away
Every time, every time, every time
cause darlin
Wo-wo-wo when you go walkin by
My heart stops
My heart stops
I cant explain it
Wo-wo-wo when you look in my eye
My heart stops
My heart stops
Every time youre near
My heart stops, my heart stops
My heart stops, my heart stops
Oh, whenever youre close to me
Theres a wave of love rushin over me
And I never felt this way
Cant explain, cant explain, cant explain
But darlin
My darlin
Wo-wo-wo when you go walkin by
My heart stops
My heart stops
I cant explain it
Wo-wo-wo when you look in my eye
My heart stops
My heart stops
Every time youre near

Love Somebody To Know
Conversations
From 4 o'clock 'till 9
Confrontation
She'll never compromise
A new religion
Is written in the song
I disbelieve it
But, I can't believe it's wrong
I can't explain what she does to me
Said you've got to love somebody to know
I can't explain how she sets me free
You've got to love somebody to know
Oh Somebody
Said, Bubbilicious is what she likes to chew
And Andy Warhol gave her a point of view
She reveals me every lonely night
I can't believe it,
So I just believe it's right
I can't explain what she does to me
Said you've got to love somebody to know
I can't explain how she sets me free
Said, You've got to love somebody to know
Oh, Somebody
Oh, Somebody
Oh Yeah
Said, You've got to love somebody to know

Mother, Father
Mother, father please explain to me
Why a world so full of mystery
A place so bitter and still so sweet
So beautiful and yet so full of sad, sad...
Mother, father please explain to me
Why forests march to desert speed
While snowcapped mountains melt away
What do we tell our babies, when do we say, oh
Mother, father please explain to me
How a man who rocks his child to sleep
Pulls the trigger on his brothers heart
He digs a hole right to the middle of this storm of hatred
Mother, father please explain to me
How it could be so this world has come to be
A precious balance in between
Such cruelty and such kindness please
Mother, father please explain to me
How this world has come to be
Unequaled in her blessings, oh, I see
Unbridled hatred so extreme, please tell me
Mother, father please explain to me
How this world has come to be so
Twisted between time and dreams
Oh, mother, father please explain to me
Oh, whats all this talk about?
All this talk about it
Spinning down, down, down, down, down
All this talk about
Endless words without
Nothings done
Mother, father do you know
Why one mans belly overflows
Another sleeps in hungers bed
Oh, we trade our world for a piece of bread
Oh mother, father please explain to me
How this rare worlds come to be
A place so full of color yet overflowing
Always in black and white
Drowning in the waters of our...
Mother, father please explain to me
How this world has come to be
While still blessed in all the things we see
Such a sad, sad home for you and me
Come out, and hold,
Come on out you
Come on out you
Come and save yourself
Come on out you
Come on were taking the water
Were taken the water
Were taken the water
But you know
We got the freedom
We got the freedom
Theres no God above
And no hell below
Oh, its here with us
Its up to us
To keep afloat
How this sweet world has come to be
Oh to keep afloat
Mother, father please explain to me
How this rare world has come to be
Oh, let the blue planet
Let the blue planet

Lady I Cant Explain
Lady I cant explain
By: jimmy buffett
1979
What could I do?
Thats never been done before
What can I say?
That hasnt been said by scores
If I was a designer I could do nothin finer
Than dress you in style
But Im a hopeless romantic still behind all these antics
Is a heart full of smiles
So Ill just keep on dreamin (Ill just keep on dreamin)
Thoughts that are in my brain
You just keep on bein
Lady I cant explain
I know that ive
The imagination of a child
And there are times
When I let it all run wild
But if I hurt, you forgive
Still you wont let me live
Some of those episodes down
Thats why I love you
And put no one above you
Love your sights and your sounds
So, Ill just keep on movin (Ill just keep on movin)
When the forecast calls for rain
You just keep on bein
Lady I cant explain
So Ill just keep on movin (Ill just keep on movin)
When the forecast calls for rain
You just keep on bein
The lady I cant explain
No no, the lady I cant explain
Coda:
Ah, yes I love you
Put no one above you
Youre the lady I cant explain

Can't Take This
I can't take this
No I can't take this
No I can't take this
'Cause this is f*****g up my mind
I can't take this
No I can't take this
No I can't take this
'Cause this is f*****g up my mind
What's eating at you now?
I can see right through you
No I'm not complaining
But you're running out of time
So what's become of this?
Just frowning faces
No more skeletons hiding
No point in confining
What needs to get out
Something inside of me
Has got me tripping on you
And I can't explain it
Maybe you're just no good for me
After all
Don't want it
Don't want it
Don't want it
I can't take this
No I can't take this
No I can't take this
'Cause this is f*****g up my mind
I can't take this
No I can't take this
No I can't take this
'Cause this is f*****g up my mind
Now that I'm reading between the lines
I need to leave this alone
I know with so much rejection
How could I be satisfied
Can you face it, not at all
Is it possible that it could be you
Who makes the mistakes
Something inside of me
Has got me tripping on you
And I can't explain it
Maybe you're just no good for me
After all
I can't take this
No I can't take this
No I can't take this
'Cause this is f*****g up my mind
I can't take this
No I can't take this
No I can't take this
'Cause this is f*****g up my mind
With or without this I'm alright
And part of me changes every time
Don't you know you're no good for me
Don't you know you're no good for me-acapo

Lucifer Sam
Lucifer sam, siam cat.
Always sitting by your side
Always by your side.
That cats something I cant explain.
Ginger, ginger, jennifer gentle youre a witch.
Youre the left side
Hes the right side.
Oh, no!
That cats something I cant explain.
Lucifer go to sea.
Be a hip cat, be a ships cat.
Somewhere, anywhere.
That cats something I cant explain.
At night prowling sifting sand.
Hiding around on the ground.
Hell be found when youre around.
That cats something I cant explain.

your face
it is not beautiful
but nonetheless
your face
fills my mind
yet i think
of you everyday
in my mind
this love persists
i cannot explain somehow
this foolishness
of my dumb heart
i am in love to an ugliness
that i cannot explain
my brain is angry though
but nonetheless
it manages to fabricate
an explanation
to kill this love so true
