It Takes A Mind To Stop All Wars
Bloated with promoted poses,
Upheld and exposed.
And...
Picked to be the ones depicted,
To combat and end conflicts.
Images portraying bravery,
Do not end the fears...
Of the ones who have the looks,
But use them to pretend.
It takes a mind to stop all wars.
And not a muscled image given.
Minds will stop all wars,
If the cause is for peace.
It takes a mind to stop all wars.
And not a muscled image given.
Minds will stop all wars,
If the cause is for peace to leave.
Bloated with promoted poses,
Upheld and exposed.

And not a muscled image given.

If the cause is for peace to leave.
Bloated with promoted poses,
Upheld and exposed.
And...
Picked to be the ones depicted,
To combat and end conflicts...
Are the ones predicting,
There is a victory to get.
But forget...
It takes a mind to stop all wars.
And not a muscled image given.
Minds will stop all wars,
If the cause is for peace.
It takes a mind to stop all wars.
And not a muscled image given.
Minds will stop all wars,
If the cause is for peace to leave.
If...
The cause is for peace to leave.
If the cause is for peace...
To leave.

Dont Cha Stop
Right here Id like to melt inside of you
Right here you kiss is totally new
Right here your hands are soft and creamy
Right here your mouth is wet and dreamy
And its just what I like
So dim down the light
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
If it makes you feel good
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
Your rhapsody is blowing my cool-ool
Your fantasies there written for fools
Your long black hair tickles my skin skin
It feels so luscious come on do it again, oh yeah
And its just what I like
Dim down the light
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
If it makes you feel good
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
If it makes you feel good
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
If it makes you feel good, good,
Good, good, good
Dont cha stop dont cha stop
A dont cha stop if it makes you feel
Good, good, good
Oo dont cha stop dont cha stop
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
Dont you stop dont cha stop
If it makes you feel
Good, good, good
Good, good, good
Good, good, good
Dont cha stop
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)
(dont cha stop dont cha stop)

Cant Stop Rockin
I heard about the rock for sometime, I know.
Its easy to do when you feel the roll.
Makes you want to get up, makes you wanna move your feet.
No matter how its done you know it cant be beat.
cause I cant stop rockin,
No, I cant stop rockin.
Well, I cant stop rockin,
Baby, till I lose my mind.
Somebody said its wrong but I know its all right,
Then it really hits you like a shot in the night.
Im never gonna stop as long as I can stay.
Listen to me now, cant you hear me say,
I cant stop rockin,
No, I cant stop rockin.
Well, I cant stop rockin,
Baby, till I lose my mind.
I like to work it down low, I like to work it to the top.
And when it starts rockin I aint never gonna stop.
Get yourself loose, get yourself high.
I love to feel the motion and Im tellin you why.
cause I cant stop rockin,
No, I cant stop rockin.
No, I cant stop rockin
No matter what they do do do do do or say.
No matter what you do do do do do or say, no no.

In Irony We Live,
In irony we live,
ambiguity makes us believe
In uncertainties we worry,
a little lie makes us relieve
Harold And Joe
Nothing ever gets in my way
Nothing ever gets on my mind
Nothing ever makes me stop to think about
Nothing of the kind
Nothing ever loses me sleep
And nothing ever wins my heart
Nothing ever makes me want to sing along
And nothing makes me want to start
If i'm falling down a mountain
Then i pick myself up
And if i crash into an iceberg
I don't give a frightful look around
If i am burning then i put myself out
I'm so completely full
I scare the world
Oh all the world
All inside out
Just look around
Just look around
Nothing ever puts me out
Nothing ever pulls me in
Nothing ever makes me want to jump
Nothing makes me want to begin
Nothing ever gets me down
Nothing ever gets me uptight
Nothing ever makes me run around
And nothing makes me feel i might
If i'm hanging from a peach tree
Then i cut myself down
And if i look into the sun
I just turn up the sound
And if i swallow deathcap loverooms
Then i spit them right out
I'm so completely full
I scare the world
Yeah all the world
Inside out
Just look around
Just look around
Nothing ever gets in my way
Nothing ever gets on my mind
Nothing ever makes me stop to think about
Nothing of the kind

The End Of Me
The day I stop being myself
And go out of my way
To please your dubious
Ans selfish desires,
That will be the sad day
I would become your shadow
With no reason to exist
In a World of uncertainties!
That clouded day,
My inner-self would die
Becoming simply
A toy of your choice
To joyfully play
In your well designed game...
My sensitive heart
Would become a playground!
That painful day
I stop being myself,
The word 'Freedom'
Will automatically be erased
From my reservoir of rich words!
Peace of mind will become
Definitely a total fiction!
That frighten and gray day
Will be the end of me!

Dues
I think Im headed for a terrible accident.
Made more plans than anyone who ever paid their rent.
Im not stupid and I might be havin too much pride.
Surgeon general has determined that I may as well die.
Jesus are you watching or have you gone blind.
Evil souls are upon us and were surely runnin out of time.
Chorus
I tried religion and some holy roller steals my tenth.
In the grave yard I aint strong enough to jump the fence.
Some men they say they got more soul than both my shoes.
Makes me wonder can we ever stop payin dues.
I might be workin on a scene that I can never act.
Everybodys gonna think that my mind is cracked.
I dont care because its my right to win or lose.
Makes me wonder can we ever stop payin dues.
Crazy, am I crazy for wanting so much more.
My mind says I cant ever give up but I still cant be sure.
Chorus
Can we ever stop payin dues.
Can we ever stop payin dues.
Can we ever stop payin dues.

Sleep
I can't describe the feeling when
I'm in my bed asleep and then
I wake up with a vision blurred
And all my efforts are detered
To reconstruct this image lost
There're certain things my mind must do
and even though they're very few
The image glistens like a gem
Repairing is not one of them
So I'm awake though in my mind
The image thats so unrefined
is calling to me from the deep
and tempting me to fall asleep

Dreaming Of Pigeons
not on a Sunday but it was
a Wednesday
the novena of the Mother of Perpetual Help
when her hands are soft
and cold,
as cold as the limestone wall
of the Spanish Church
the air is chilly for on that month
the rain does not stop
two teenyboppers kneeling
praying to make it through the uncertainties
of youth
love that feeling when brushing the skin
of the beloved
makes the universe travel into light years
with meteors exploding
like the Fourth of July
I still remember this
But now without so much flare.

Too Many Rhymes
make it stop..... i want to die
make it stop... no more love i want to be like i was in the sky
make it stop.... do whatever you can
make it stop... i using my talent for evil
make it stop..... i wanna bash my head in with a pan
make it stop.... love is evol all thats missing is the I which is me
thats what makes it..... make it stop right now
make it stop.... take your time.....

its too much pain
pain that makes my life wain
pain that keeps me alive the love gives me a reason why
and a reason why not

Cant Stop Messin
Sitting at a stop sign
Lookin for a friend of mine
Waiting to salute the flag
Talkin to some he/she
Slidin over next to me
Man, she said, this life is a drag
Its a shaky situation
Im hangin on my will
And I get no satisfaction
On a hundred dollar bill
But I got what I came for
And Ill do it til I drop
You do what you want to do
I aint never gonna stop
You say you got something that makes you feel good
And you cant stop messin with it
All your life youve been so misunderstood
Cause you cant stop messin with it
Sittin by the seashore
Dreamin bout a little more
Circlin the classifieds
976
Man I need another fix
Ill never have to kiss the bride
Yeah, the city is a war zone
This country gone to hell
And the beer cans in the alley
From the rich folks on the hill
Theyre screamin hallelujah
But I dont give a damn
Cause I got my own religion
Yea, its right here in my hand
Chorus:
You say you got something that makes you feel good
And you cant stop messin with it
All your life youve been so misunderstood
Now you cant stop messin with it
Chorus
You say you got nothin makes you feel like you should
Now you cant stop messin with it
All your life youve been so misunderstood
Now you cant stop messin with it
Chorus
You say you got something that makes you feel good
And you cant stop messin with it
All your life youve been so misunderstood
Now you cant stop messin, cant stop messin
Chorus
You say you got something that makes you feel good
And you cant stop messin with it
All your life youve been so misunderstood
Now you cant stop m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-messin with it

I Cant Stop The Rain
This is new york, yo
(its getting dark)
Night falls on the city
Finds me all alone
Makes me wonder
Should I just go on home
And I walk up the stairs
To see if youre sill there
Would you mind if
I found you alone
Then a cold wind came callin
Strange how it knew itd bother me
See the night would fade
But the pains gonna stay
Makes me wonder
Have you ever made love to me
I cant stop the rain, here it comes again
Lightnin strikes across the sky
Oh, I cant stop the rain, here it comes again
Lightnin only blinds my eyes
Aint it sad
When the only love I ever had
Just slips away
Right through my fingers
Aint it a shame when I think of your name
The only memory I have is it
I cant stop the rain, here it comes again
Lightnin strikes across the sky
Oh, I cant stop the rain, here it comes again
It takes a witch to curse that goddamn sky
I cant stop the rain, here it comes again
Lightnin strikes across the sky
Oh, I cant stop the rain, here it comes again
cause lightnin only blinds my eyes
Oh, I cant stop the rain, here it comes again
cause lightnin only blinds my eyes
Cant stop it, blinds my eyes

The Image
Written by: richard marx & fee waybill
Hope you dont believe a word
Of all the things I know youve heard about me
Really just a pack of ies
You see the truth before your eyes around me
Hard to keep it straight
The real from the ruse
Probably way too late
What can I do, but its
Not what you think
Not what you hear
Not what you see
Its just the image
Its all on a string
All fantasy
Not really me
Its just the image
Would it be too much to ask
That you could just gvie me the chance to prove it
Or would it only be a waste of time
To try to make you change your mind and use it
What Ive been looking for
Isnt what I thought
Not behind the golden door
Youre all Ive got, and its
Not what you think
Not what you hear
Not what you see
Its just the image
Its all on a string
All fantasy
Not really me
Its just the image
What Ive been looking for
Isnt what I thought
Not behind the golden door
Youre all Ive got, and its
Not what you think
Not what you hear
Not what you see
Just the image
Its all on a string
All fantasy
Not really me
Its just the image
Not what you think
Not what you hear
Not what you see
Its just the image

Stop
So you talked to my girl
When I don't want you to,
Want you to.
Just the thought of you holding her
When I don't want you to,
Want you to
Won't do.
No, no, no,
It won't do, no.
Stop! Stop!
You're trying to break it up between us.
Stop! Stop!
Don't want a broken heart between us.
Oh please, forget about it.
Make your mind up
What you're going to do about us.
So you talk better than me
And you know, you know it, know you know it
And if you want to get her from me
And you know you know it, know you know it,
Won't do, no,
I'm telling you it won't do, no.
Stop! Stop!
You're trying to break it up between us.
Stop! Stop!
Don't want a broken heart between us.
Oh please, forget about it.

Cant Be Saved
I cant find my way,
I cant block out the voices,
Cant stop fallowing the light guiding me,
Cant stop thinking of you,
Cannot stop this breakdown,
Cannot stop the pain of cutting myself,
Can not stop the thoughts racing through my mind,
Can not stop feeling so depressed,
The depression takes over me,
The light guides me deeper into it,
The thought of u drives me insane,
The breakdown makes me vulnerable,
The pain and thoughts making it worse,
I cannot be saved from this obsession,
This obsession with hurt, pain, and depression.

The age of image.
The people who know you
Are the canvas on which
Your image, good or bad,
Is drawn rightly or not.
Mind! The image you built
Will die with the canvas
When it’s torn or worn out.
Yet, each one wants an image.
Don't we desire leaving
A child for our copy,
which will not last long though?
