My record of 13 goals in the World Cup finals still stands.

Final Exams
Final Exams are such a big hassle
But I suppose it is worth all the stress
If it is for the cap, gown and tassel
Even though I wish the stress was much less
If only the finals were trouble-free
No one would worry this much or freak out
And we'd be done quick and effortlessly
Finals being easy? I really doubt
So I'll keep trying to get a good grade
And from a big college I'll graduate
Then when I'm a doctor, I'll have it made
But first, my finals, before it's too late
So here I am, still taking my exam
Using everything I just had to cram

You always love playing in finals at any tournament. The grand slams and stuff like that are obviously the priorities but any titles go on your record.

In that match for Holland I asked for a big responsibility, I got it and I dealt with it. I played well, I scored goals and the team qualified for the Euro 2004 finals. It was a big night and an important moment for Holland.

Though I still have no semblance of a life outside of Nine Inch Nails at the moment, I realize my goals have gone from getting a record deal or selling another record to being a better person, more well-rounded, having friends, having a relationship with somebody.

Maradona's Nightmare!
Maradona's nightmare!
And he lost the game against the Germans.
He saw this vision a very long time ago so,
He went to Germany and played a friendly match with them;
This was before the 2010 World Cup was played in South Africa,
But the game enden with a draw.
Then came the actual time in the World Cup which,
Was a very important game to qualify for the semi-finals!
And Germany won Argentina by four goals to nil (4-0):
Oh Maradona, you are now with your nightmare.

When I follow the finals of the European Cups, I look at all the aspects surrounding protocol, to get some ideas. I am interested in personalities, sponsors and the stands. But as soon as the whistle goes, it's all on the pitch.

My favorite Knicks moment was when we beat Indiana in Game 7 to reach the NBA Finals. We worked so hard as a team to reach that moment that it was very satisfying to beat Indiana and reach the Finals.

Consequently, I won just about everything I set out to win, everything bar the World Cup, of course. But even now, I don't regret that, because I was part of a team which twice reached the semi-finals.

A chance, as a coach, to take a team to the World Cup finals is probably as high up the tree as it gets, certainly with one-day cricket.
There was a tremendous amount of disappointment in missing the World Cup finals in 1998, so they're getting excited about this one and I really think we could do well in the Far East.

What Are My Goals?
What are my goals?
You mean...
Like those 'things' I wish to accomplish?
'Yes.
You must have made some by now.'
Well...
The ones I made yesterday,
I've already met.
I did make some this afternoon.
But they've been achieved,
To allow me to rest.
And those I've made for tomorrow...
I am putting now to the test.
'Okay so your goals are...
Can you be more specific,
Than that? '
I'm doing the best I can.
And 'if' I get too specific...
They've would have changed,
Before I can get the word 'completed'...
Out of my mouth.
I know this may be an inconvenience,
But...
Is it possible you could come back,
In a few weeks.
By then I should have a list,
Of my more recent goals accomplished for you.
It's too difficult for me to set goals.
I hate to discuss the process.
That's too time consuming.
I'd rather do and let it be.
You understand that don't you?
Of course you do.
I see it in your eyes!

But Id gladly write a song instead
They said okay and everything was cool

When this man tries 2 get in the car

No introduction, how u been?
Just up yours, smile, thats right, youre a star! (star)
U call em bodyguards but I call em my friends
I guess Im used 2 havin em around
And cameras by nature like rewards
Thats the trouble I get when Im uptown
Im not afraid to die (dont be afraid)
Oh no, theres a better place (cuz theres a better place 2 go)

Whole wheat toast (anything is cool in moderation)
And Im happy, and thats for sure

Our record stands tall
Theres just as much hunger here at home
Well do what we can
If yall try and understand
A flower that has water will grow
And the child misunderstood will go
Hello

Everybody were against hungry children
Our record stands tall
Theres just as much hunger here at home
Well do what we can
If yall try and understand
A flower that has water will grow
And the child misunderstood will go
Our record stands tall, u know
Give us time and love will show
Hello
Hello

You're Gone!
The soccer finals were happening
and we all gathered to see
the final two teams battle it out
they arrived all filled with glee
The Ref however was related to the others
so his daughter’s team just shone
He informed our kids
'You don’t stand a chance! '
'I can tell you now” You’re Gone! '
That shook their confidence
when they saw that the others were
five giants who fought like dogs
with threats and hits not allowed
they had arms like giant logs
twice the size of our gentle team
really vicious and out for war
really big thugs that always fought mean
and a ref on their side that’s for sure
The Ref allowed the vicious attacks
and the hits and the kicks of his team
but deliberately missed three of our goals
and shattered our children’s dream
Needless to say one little girl
still managed to score 2 goals
her other 3 were not punched in
so they lost to the giants holds.
It broke my heart to see the way
those children were treated that day
and to the ref and those bullies who didn’t play fair
I only have this to say.
Sport is meant for playing
Showing spirit and having fun
not for bullying threatening and kicking
no-one cares who won.
If you play it fair you feel success
the thing for which you long
but until you learn
the meaning of 'sport'
you've lost you've failed’ YOU'RE GONE’

I heard the music
In his heart
I heard the rhythmn
the pulses sang
with the life of drums
into his looks
I ached to book
for there the river starts
the mouth of life
it fountains from those tenders
ages past revealed
births born and unborn
could you sight
there is a magnetic needle
that pricks you to straddle
to his looks
they speak of passion
not of lust, but passion
of life and soul
the urge to fight the
cowardish goals
and go for the finals
with the fire of fighters
the music of the bands
of Victory and Marches ahead
they ooze from his eyes
as if he is the speaker
for the armies of life and souls.

Remember Your Past
Try to remember our past,
Remember who made you what you are today;
try to remember your past in times like this.
You dumped me like a trash,
You lied to me like a thief,
You treated me like a fool,
You sold me like a baby,
But do remember the past always.
I have made you what you are today,
Like another client on the Libyan Desert;
Do give credit wher it is due,
Do remember my love for you;
I thought you were my friend but,
Today i am your enemy.
Many are dead and gone,
Many are still waiting to learn;
But, do remember your past.
In this life,
Some may like you and others may hate you;
But, some medicines are easier taken than others.
I thought you were my friend but,
Today i am your enemy.
Now you are against me,
You've turned away from me to another;
You've really disappointed me.
My heart is very sad,
But my mind will always remember you;
You've stolen my trust to marry another man.
Try to be righteous for once,
Try to learn for the better;
Do remember your past at all times.
In the greatest time of trouble,
In the finals of love;
You've really disappointed me.
In the finals of history,
That is when you will look for me;
In the finals of trust,
Money is not everything;
First impressions do matters a lot.
One day,
The bells will ring down on you;
One day,
You will surely remember me for all my love;
You are a grown up woman,
But you've stolen my trust to marry another man.

U Stands! U stands!
And I
And I
I wing
Spaceless timeless lost my way
U stands! U stands!
And
Raging bearishly shrieks myself
I
Bears my very self!
U!

U binds time
U bends the circle
U souls the spirit
U gazes the look
U
Circles the whirled
The whorled
The world!
I
Circle the all

You Inspire
(09/07/11)
It was the dawn of a new day
The bright orange sun was shining my way.
The sky was a beautiful light blue
The only thing missing “ was you”.
My day cannot begin if you’re not there
That beautiful smile with me you share.
So many things in my life that you inspire
And made me set my goals even higher.
You told me that there is nothing in life
That I can’t do- set your goals and follow thru.
Because of you all my goals except for one
Has been met.
Winning your heart I still must get.

Overnight Sensation
(eric carmen)
Well i know it sounds funny
But i'm not in it for the money, no
I don't need reputation
And i'm not in it for the show
I just want a hit record
Want to hear it on the radio
Want a big hit record
One that everybody's got to know
Well the program director don't pull it
Then it's bound to get back the bullet
So bring the group down to the station
You're gonna be an overnight sensation
I've been tryin' to write the lyric
Not offensive but satiric, too
If you can get it in the "a" slot
It's just gotta make a mint for you
And i want a hit record
Want to hear it on the radio
Want a big hit record
One that everybody's got to own
Overnight sensation
I fit the words
To a good melody
Amazing how success
Has been ignoring me so long
I've used my bread
Making demos all day
And writing in the night
While in my head i hear
The record play
Hear it play
Hit record, yeah
Want a hit record, yeah
Want a hit record, yeah
(number one)
Want a hit record, yeah
(number one)
