All I Want Is Everything
Some 15 year old kid sits on his porch, just half-past noon
Trying to figure out just what hes doing
Why he had to grow up so soon
With all the gangs, all the guns-watcha gonna learn in school
Theres got to be some way out of here
He says man, this life is cruel
I knew this puerto rican girl who lied to change her life
She changed her name
Her face because the grass looked greener on the other side
She turned her back, she ran away straight into the night
Her friends, her family feel the pain, but shes the one who cries
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
I want everything
Ive had enough of havin nothing, I wont take just anything
I got my mind set on something, all I want is everything
Its my life mr. - I aint running, Im no puppet on a string
I want more than I see coming
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
My next door neighbor donnie
Died in his room just the other day
His brother come home
Found him dead on the floor with a needle in his vain
Cops come down with a body bag
They said donnie was a casually
I said, all its about is the boy checked out
He couldnt handle reality
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
I want everything
Ive had enough of havin nothing, I wont take just anything
I got my mind set on something, all I want is everything
Its my life mr. - I aint running, Im no puppet on a string
I want more than I see coming
All I want is everything
All I want is everything

Dog Faced Boy
Eels - dog faced boy
-----------------------
Coming home from the school today
Crying all along the way
Aint no way for a boy to be
Begging ma to shave me please
You little punks think you own this town
Well someday someones gonna bring you down
Life aint pretty for a dog faced boy
Life aint pretty for a dog faced boy
You, take back what you said now
Thats the last time I cry
You tell me what it is to be a friend, now
till I walk beside you on the street now
Ma wont shave me
Jesus cant save me
Dog faced boy
Life aint pretty for a dog faced boy
Life aint pretty for a dog faced boy
Life aint pretty for a dog faced boy
Life aint pretty for a dog faced boy
Going back to the school tomorrow
Hang my hairy head in sorrow
Aint no way for a boy to be
Aint no way to set me free, now
Ma wont shave me
Jesus cant save me
Dog faced boy
Ma wont shave me
Jesus cant save me

Another Day
Woke up lyin on the floor
Cant recall the night before
Oh - another day
Outside its cold and damp
Unemployment cheque is spent
Yeah - another day
Some people never know
You cant just let it go
Or try and work it out some other way
Some people never learn
My life aint their concern
And nothins gonna change come what may
Had a job but it fell through
Landlord says the rent is due
Oh - another day
They say the best in life is free
But if you dont pay then you dont eat
Oh - another day
I guess Ill never know
You cant just let it go
Or try to work it out some other way
Some people never learn
Their life aint my concern
Aint nothin gonna change come what may
Grass looks greener on the other side
But I cant get there my hands are tied
And if I do dont be surprised
Oh - gotta figure it out another day

Maggies Farm
I aint gonna work on maggies farm no more.
No, I aint gonna work on maggies farm no more
Well, I wake up in the morning
Fold my hands and pray for rain.
I got a head full of ideas
That are drivin me insane
Its a shame
The way she makes me
Scrub the floor
I aint gonna work on, nah
I aint gonna work on maggies farm no more.
I aint gonna work for maggies brother no more
Nah, I aint gonna work for maggies brother no more
Well, he hands you a nickel
And he hands you a dime
And he asks you with a grin
If youre havin a good time
Then he fines you every time you slam the door
I aint gonna work for, nah
I aint gonna work for maggies brother no more
I aint gonna work for maggies pa no more
No, I aint gonna work for maggies pa no more
Well, he puts his cigar
Out in your face just for kicks
His bedroom window
It is made out of bricks
The national guard stands around his door
I aint gonna work, nah
I aint gonna work for maggies pa no more
I aint gonna work for maggies ma no more
No, I aint gonna work for maggies ma no more
Well, she talks to all the servants
About man and God and law
And everybody says
Shes the brains behind pa
Shes sixty-eight, but she says shes twenty-four
I aint gonna work for, nah
I aint gonna work for maggies ma no more
I aint gonna work on maggies farm no more
No, I aint gonna work on maggies farm no more
Well I try my best
To be just like I am
But everybody wants you
To be just like them
They sing while they slave and just get bored
I aint gonna work on, nah
I aint gonna work on maggies farm no more

It Aint Over Yet
(c) 1990 by d. crider and johnny neal
Transcribed by b. luckett
Well, its rainin out the window.
With no sadness on your face.
As youre cleaning out your closet.
Throw your clothes around the place.
I cant stand to see you leaving.
Im not ashamed to beg you to stay.
I cant lock the door and keep you.
I wont stand in your way.
Guess Ive got to let you go.
But theres just one thing you should know.
It aint over, it aint over yet.
You might walk away but you wont forget.
Ill never stop loving you.
My mind is set.
So do what you gotta do yeah.
Cause it aint over yet.
Guess I should have seen it coming.
But I can see it clearly now.
Gonna change my way of livin.
Try to get you back somehow.
Some night when youre lonely.
And your thoughts have turned to me.
Just when you least expect it.
Ill come walking through your dreams.
So go on take that taxi ride.
Cause I know time is on my side.
It aint over, it aint over yet.
You might walk away but you wont forget.
Ill never stop loving you.
My mind is set.
Do what you gotta do baby.
It aint over....

Anything You Want
(coverdale/vandenberg)
I need your love to get me through
All the things I wanna do,
Babe, if you want me to
Ill get on my knees for you
But, you gotta give me a little sign,
You got the same thing on your mind
Every day an every night
Give me the green light
An let it roll, let it ride,
Ill be your dog til youre satisfied
Ill be your puppet on a string
Cos for a spoonful of your sugar
I would do anything
Anything you want,
Anything you need
Anytime at all
It is so hard for you to see,
I just love your company
An there aint nothing I wont do,
Just to prove my love to you
An let it roll, let it ride,
Ill be your dog til youre satisfied
Ill be your puppet on a string
Cos for a spoonful of your sugar
I would do anything
So baby, try to understand
I was born to be your man
Dont keep me knocking at your door,
Just tell me yes or tell me no
An let it roll, let it ride,
Ill be your dog til youre satisfied
Ill be your puppet on a string
Cos for a spoonful of your sugar
I would do anything
Anything you want,
Anything you need

Its Over
I wont be here when you come home
Im sorry if you dont understand, forgive me if you can
But I can see another road
And I aint coming back
Dont look for me around this town
cause I will be so far away, youll never find me anywhere
And I wont take no souvenirs
No perfumed picture promises
Because its over
And I aint coming back
You gave me everything
And now Im breaking your heart
You know that I dont mean
To tear your world apart
I would never leave if I thought you couldnt stand the pain
A letter in the hall
Is written on the wall
A letter with no words of love at all
Because its over (because its over)
And I aint coming back
And as I close the door
I know Im breaking your heart
I should have loved you more
Instead Ive torn your world apart
And as I walk into the lonely afternoon
I feel sad enough
I feel bad enough
And all the times when you are lonely where you are
Please dont hate me then
I just could not pretend oh no
Feel the tears
I can feel the tears
Running through the years

There Wont Be Many Coming Home
(orbison/ dees)
Listen all you people
Try and understand
You may be a soldier
Woman, child or man
But there wont be many coming home
No, there wont be many coming home
Oh, there wont be many
Maybe ten out of twenty
But there wont be many coming home
Now the old folks will remember
On that dark and dismal day
How their hearts were choked with pride
As their children marched away
Now the glory is all gone
They are left alone
And there wont be many coming home
No, there wont be many coming home
Oh, there wont be many
Maybe five out of twenty
But there wont be many coming home
Look real closely at the soldier
Coming at you through the haze
He may be the younger brother who ran away
And before you kill another
Listen to what I say
Oh, there wont be many coming home
Oh, there wont be many coming home
Oh, there wont be many
There may not be any
But there wont be many coming home
If they all came back but one
He was still some mothers son
And there wont be many coming home
Oh, there wont be many coming home
Oh, there wont be many coming home
Oh, there wont be many coming home.......

Shes not the type of girl to fall for any line
Joe: Id take her out to dinner, treat her like a winner
I may be young, but Im no beginner

You have to be sincere for a girl that fine!

Danny: alright then, d., since you gave it a try
All: tell us about the girl who caught your eye
Donnie:
It was after school and I was feeling cool
til I saw that girl and I started to drool
So I thought to myself, take it easily
I couldnt let peer pressure get the best of me
I thought to myself, what should I do?
Thats when she came up on me and said i love you
Donnie: who me?
All: yeah, you!
Donnie: couldnt be!
All: but its true!
Donnie: so I rushed back home to tell you guys,
But not before I got a quick kiss goodbye!

Donnie
Donnies got a secret and you know it
He was yours, in the summertime, yeah
About ten years ago
He promised you to stay forever
Live with you
Its so bittersweet now
When you know what you lost
Donnie was the boy you always wanted by your side
Donnie was the boy your girlfriends fell for one by one
Donnie was the boy you always wanted day and night
But donnie had a girlfriend: tender, sexy, sweet and blonde
Hes always on your mind
The season changes
Years went by
But that chapter of love stays unfinished for you
Keep on dancing through your new life
Maybe, make a move
Make him see you again,
As the flower you are
Donnie was the boy you always wanted by your side
Donnie was the boy your girlfriends fell for one by one
Donnie was the boy you always wanted day and night
But donnie had a girlfriend: tender, sexy, sweet and blonde
In the summer time, yeah
In the summer time, life was easy
On the beach you had him long ago
In the summer time, yeah
In the summer time, life was easy
On the beach you had him long ago
Donnie was the boy you always wanted by your side...

You wont be here long

Youre on fi fi fire till everybody finds out
Look what youve done, done to my head
Look what youve done, look what youve done
Done to my head, youve got me thinking
Maybe I will and maybe I wont
Maybe I cant but God only knows
I wont be the puppet strings you hold on
Come tomorrow, its a sign of the times
Its coming down now
Shelter wont save you my friend
So sit dow till you learn
And sit down till you grow
You mi mi mi might turn if youd only let yourself go
Look what youve done, done to my head
Look what youve done, look what youve done
Done to my head,
Maybe I will and maybe I wont
Maybe I cant but God only knows
I wont be the puppet strings you hold on
I see you depend over and over on logic
I cant understand
Who kept you floating, my friend?
Kept your head above water
Rough seas hit you harder
I should have just let you drown
Maybe I will and maybe I wont
Maybe I cant, but God only knows
I wont be the puppet strings you hold on

Love Can Do
Who can say
Why she turned and walked away.
I cant see,
But shes gone away.
Sometimes love
Means we have to stand and fight.
Everybody runs,
Everybody hides,
No, this aint the movies,
Now its flesh and blood,
And this thing Im sure of,
Hey, little girl running out so fast,
Gotta stay put for love to last,
Why you gotta say
That love has gone away;
Its not like that.
Everybody hurts when the feelings fade,
If you want em back
You know you gotta stay,
(no running.)
No running.
Loves coming back,
Like only love can do.
Love can do
Things you never thought it could,
Mend a hurt so bad,
Make you feel so good.
Loves for fools
Wise enough to take a chance;
Hear the music girl,
Let me see you dance.
No, this aint the movies,
Now its give and take,
And its your heart at stake.
Hey, little girl running out so fast,
Gotta stay put for love to last,
Why you gotta say
That love has gone away;
Its not like that.
No....
Everybody hurts when the feelings fade,
If you want em back
You know you gotta stay,

Loves coming back,
Like only love can do.

Hey, little girl running out so fast,
Yeah, yeah,
Looking for the love youre sure will last.
Why do you have to say it?
Love has gone away;
Its not...like that.
Loves not like that.
Everybody hurts when the feelings fade,
If you want em back
You know you gotta stay,

Crazy About Her
(r. stewart/d. hitchings/j. cregan)
I walk the streets at night
Until the morning light comes shining through
Cant get a good nights sleep
Aint been to work in weeks
What am I gonna do
Help me
Cant get her off my mind
Im drinking too much wine
Im burning up inside
If I could touch her face
Or take her out some place Id be satisfied
Hey, Im a loaded gun
Im crazy about her, crazy about her
Hey, Im a lovesick son
Im crazy about her
I see her jogging in central park
With one of them walkmans on her head.
She was hot, young, beautiful
And I said to myself
Shes destined to be mine
I see her every day
In rush hour or subway, in a grocery store
She dont notice me,
I might as well just be a cockroach on the floor
If she belonged to me Id give her everything
Id never cheat or lie
Id treat her with respect, not just a sex object
I aint that kind of guy
Hey, Im a loaded gun
Im crazy about her, crazy about her
Hey, Im a lovesick son
Im crazy about her
I was standing outside the met one day
When she drove by in a black corvette
I said hey baby
I couldve died, she looked straight through me
But I know shes destined to be mine
Spoken:
Every night I stand around her door and wait for her to come by
She lives in one of those brown-stones with the guard outside
And the limousines and the rolls royces coming and going
My friends all say shes way outta my class
But I know if shed just get know me
I could give her something all those rich guy aint got
Yeah!
Aint gonna bide my time aint gonna stand in line
Somebody gonna get burned
But, oh the problem is I think my loves at risk
Shes the bosss girl
Oh no

Raintown Boys
J. spinks
The raintown boys are leaving today
Heading on out to the shoreline
The greytown boys are tired of this place
Theyre not coming back anymore
Theyre gonna find a new life in the city
Dont wanna live in black and white
cos nothings gonna change the talkins over
Too many wasted years gone by
The raintown boys aint coming back to town no more
Theyve had enough of living in the past for sure
The sadtown girls are crying inside
Thoughts are out there in the darkness
Theyd given their hearts to the boys in the past
Now its so lonely without them
Its late at night but downtown in the city
They walk the streets - the lights turn red
A broken voice in their imagination
They cant believe the things she said
I can give you more than anyone can
Perfect strangers living in a new land
The raintown boys are so far away
Been living it up on the shore
No doubt in their minds theyre gonna stay
Theres nothing left to go home for
Theyve found a better life inside this city
Their fears are gone - their fortunes changed
Just like they were made for one another
The boys wont ever be the same
The raintown boys aint coming back to town no more
Theyve had enough of living in the past for sure
No more - no more - no more
No more - no more - no more

I'll do any little thing you say
I wouldn't have it any other way
Take my heart and take my soul
I'm givin' you complete control
If you wanna see me do my thing, Baby pull my string Huh, yea
[Backup Girls next section]
Puppet man, puppet man-an
[enter Jones]
Baby, Baby, I'm your sweet pet
I'm just your personal marionette
Wind me up and let me go
Don't you know I'm a one man show?
Raise your finger and I'll perform
I'll crack a jack till' the crack a dawn
If you wanna see me do my thing, baby pull my string

Puppet man, puppet ma-an

Baby, Baby I'm warning you, satisfaction guaranteed
Anytime you feel uptight

Cause I'm a puppet just for you
But if you wanna see me do my thing

[Jones finishes]
Puppet man
Baby, I'm your puppet man
Ya I might even...
If you pull my string
I'll do anything
Baby, baby I'm your puppet man
Can't do anything unless ya pull my string
Love ya, Love ya, Love ya, Love ya!
Down deep in your soul
Do anything, I might even love you
Wow-oh

String Of Lies
I've got no politics no influential friend or two
I've got ideas but it's nothing I picked up at school
I might be running but I'm never running back to you
And here's a letter from the real world I don't expect you'll reply
And anything you're gonna tell me it's just another lie
I had to wait so long that weeks and months that passed me by
You've got no power and my situation don't apply
You ask me how I am I lie and say I'm doing fine
And with your sugar sweetened alibi there was a truth I never knew
And all the attitude you gave me it's coming back to you
String of lies it's always compromise with you
String of lies you know there's nothing left to do
String of lies it's been a string of lies with you
And here's a letter from the real world I don't expect your reply
And anything you're gonna tell me it's just another lie
String of lies we always compromise for you
String of lies you know there's nothing left to do
String of lies it's been a string of lies with you
String of lies we always compromise for you
And here's a letter from the real world

A Puppet On A String
A puppet on a string is all that you are,
And all that you ever will be
Your told what to hear and what to say
And you're even told what you can believe.
You are not free as you were once before
As you gave that and your dignity away
Now you are told where to go and what to wear
And you were even told to change your name.
Your watched and not trusted wherever you go
And you must ask permission to leave
And that is the life that you chose for yourself
Now for you there is only shame and pity.
You're a puppet on the string as that is you
Your puppeteer tells you how to act
He tells you what to cook and when to sleep
And when to bed him and how to react,
But what can you do, as you have nowhere to go
Everyone knows of your lying and your ways
Your own daughters are confused because of you
Now they will be like you in their own adult days.
You changed your hair and you changed your name
Because your master commanded you to
To make him happy is what you want to do best
But sadly this situation for you isn't new.
You're a puppet on the string that's all that I hear
Wherever you might go or what you might say
You walk in the footsteps your master placed for you
And you will walk them until your dying days.
Your strings are pulled and then you will walk
Your strings are pulled and then you will obey
Your strings are pulled and then you will answer
And that's how you will be from day unto day.
No truth or loyally does your master have for you
Not even a vow to GOD or a wedding ring
But you never expect or accepted them anyway
As all that you are, is but a puppet on a string.
