I was not an outstanding student. I did a reasonable amount of work. I got generally good - pretty good grades, but I was not that passionate about getting straight A's.

Angel, Angelina

Chorus:
Angel, oh my angel, angelina
Heaven must be wonderin where you are
Mornin finds me prayin please let me keep her
Each night finds me wishin on a star
That always, oh always angelina
Youll be stayin right here in my arms
Sweetest of the sweet those ruby lips
No other has that touch ooh those fingertips
Bluest of the blue those sparklin eyes
Like had in glove we fit you know youre just my size
You and all your special ways and means
Oh I love you angelina
Chorus
Youll be stayin right here in my arms

Im back to who I was
Before I was the one who fell in love
With the one who never, ever was in love
Im back to bein me
These eyes that used to cry myself to sleep
Now theyre dry they dont lay me down to weep
For the first time in a long time I like seeing what I see
No thanks to you
Im back to bein me
These eyes that used to cry myself to sleep
Now theyre dry they dont lay me down to weep
For the first time in a long time I like seeing what I see
No thanks to you
Im back to bein me
Im back to bein me
Im back to bein nobody
The who I was before I was your used to be
Im back to bein me

These Chains

These chai-ains won't keep me from bein' a free man
I'm doin' what I can to get out of here
And these chai-ains won't keep me from seein' my freedom
I'm changin' my name and startin' over agai-ain
I was a foo-ool for a good lookin' woman
Till I found out the hard way there was some other man
Now what else could I do, how could anyone blame me
He was standin' there smilin' with a gun in his ha-and
These chai-ains won't keep me from bein' a free man
I'm doin' what I can to get out of here
And these chai-ains won't keep me from seein' my freedom
I'm changin' my name and startin' over again
She had a known reputation but I paid no attention
With love and affection, can make anything right
The judge had no mercy for my infatuation
He said killin's a sin boy, you gotta pay-ay the price
These chai-ains won't keep me from bein' a free man
I'm doin' what I can to get out of here
And these chai-ains won't keep me from seein' my freedom
I'm changin' my name and startin' over again
Down the hall there's a window, you can barely fit through it
And deep in the night I see the lights of town
And it started me thinkin' 'bout a mystical ladder
That's as high as these walls and I'm climbin' it rung by-y ru-ung
These chains won't keep me from bein' a free man
I'm doin' what I can to get out of here
And these chai-ains won't keep me from seein' my freedom
I'm changin' my name and startin' over again
These chai-ains won't keep me from bein' a free man
I'm doin' what I can to get out of here
These chai-ains won't keep me from seein' my freedom
I'm

Stephen King

I'm rightly tired of the pain I hear and feel, boss. I'm tired of bein' on the road, lonely as a robin in the rain. Not never havin' no buddy to go on with or tell me where we's comin' from or goin' to or why. I'm tired of people bein' ugly to each other. It feels like pieces of glass in my head. I'm tired of all the times I've wanted to help and couldn't. I'm tired of bein' in the dark. Mostly it's the pain. There's too much. If I could end it, I would. But I can't.

It Hurts To Want It So Bad

Its a lot like bein little
And wantin a brand new toy.
Its a lot like bein little
And wantin a baby boy
To call brother,
And it hurts
When you want it
So bad.
Its a lot like bein a young boy
Who cannot make the team.
Its a lot like bein a young girl
Who cannot help but dream
Of her best friends brother,
And it hurts
When you want it
So bad.
When its love
Youve had and lost,
If thats the worst hurt
Youve ever had,
Waiting for a new love
To come along,
And maybe, baby,
[its] just as bad.
Its a lot like bein a man
When you[ve] no one to call your own,
And its a lot like bein a woman
When you want to make a home
And be a mother,
And it hurts when you want it
So bad.
Hey, yeah.
When its love
Youve had and lost,
Thats the worst hurt
Youve ever had,
Waiting, waiting for a new love
To come along,
It may be, baby,
May be just as bad, lord.
Its a lot like bein a man
When you[ve] no one to call your own,
And
Its a lot like bein a woman
When ya want
To make a home
And be a mother,
And it hurts
When ya want it so bad.
When ya want it,
Want it so bad.
When ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya,
When ya want it.
When ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya,
When ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya,
When ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya,
[when ya want it so bad.]

By competent evidence, is meant such as the nature of the thing to be proved requires; and by satisfactory evidence, is meant that amount of proof, which ordinarily satisfies an unprejudiced mind, beyond any reasonable doubt.

Fleas

My thoughts are like fleas,
Eternally skipping.
I try as I please
To prevent their slipping,
To probe them for more meant
Than my wit can utter;
But out of the torment
They quiver and flutter,
Dance, sparkle, and vanish
With insolent ease.
To hold or to banish
My thoughts are like fleas.

Being Kind

Please don't worry now about the mornin'
When it's time we'll sip our wine and sleep
Woah, but i've been known
To love more than one person
Woah, and i've been shown
That bein' kind can hurt someone sometimes
Listen to my words now look no further
What you've seen is what i mean no more
Woah, but i've been known
To love more than one person
Woah, and i've been shown
That bein' kind can hurt someone sometimes
Don't dream of answers cause you know i've none to give
They burn like cancers they just won't let you live
I've been known
To love more than one person
And i've been shown
That bein' kind can hurt someone sometimes
Don't dream of answers cause you know i've none to give
We move like dancers steppin on each other to live
And pouncin hard
Like animals in the yard
And there's no healin, lookin, feelin
There's no denyin that bein kind can hurt
Someone sometimes
Oh, there's no denyin, woah lord there's no denyin
That bein' kind can hurt someone sometimes

Had Enough

Ive had enough of bein nice
Ive had enough of right and wrong
Ive had enough of tryin to love my brother
Ive had enough of bein good
And doin everything like Im told I should
If you need a lover, youd better find another
Life is for the living
Takers never giving
Suspicion takes the place of trust
My love is turning into lust
If you get on the wrong side of me you better run for cover
Ive had enough of bein trodden on
My passive days are gonna be long gone
If you slap one cheek, well, I aint gonna turn the other
Life is for the living
Takers never giving
Fooling no one but ourselves
Good is dying
Here comes the end
Here comes the end of the world
Im gettin sick of this universe
Aint gonna get better; its gonna get worse
And the worlds gonna sink with the weight of the human race
Hate and fear in every face
Im gettin ready and Ive packed my case
If you find somewhere better, can you save my place?
Fooling no one but ourselves
Love is dying
Here comes the end
Here comes the end
Here comes the end of the world

Bein Green

Its not easy bein green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When I think it could be nicer bein red or yellow or gold
Or something much more colorful like that
Its not easy bein green
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over
cause youre not standing out like flashy sparkles
On the water or stars in the sky
But green is the color of spring
And green can be cool and friendly like
And green can be big like an ocean
Or important like a mountain or tall like a tree
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why
But why wonder, why wonder?
I am green and itll do fine, its beautiful
And I think its what I want to be
