You can! ! ! !
You can
beat me
kill me
destroy me
humilate me
laugh at me
steal from me
rape me
stab me
take every thing from me
But you will never
break me
my sprite
or my pride
dont even think about it
and dont you dare even try.

Dont Break This Rhythm
Dont break this rhythm, dont break this motion
All this momentum keeps stealing through
Across the cornfields, through all the marshland
Theres nothing gonna stop this thing
Clear the trees, burn the brushwood
Bring the diggers in, Im gonna move this earth
Lay the big stones, put down the sleepers
Haul the steel in, I will beat this land
Dont care how but, Im coming through here
Whatever it takes, oh
Dont break this rhythm, dont break this motion
We work together in sympathy
Dont break this rhythm, dont break this motion
We work together in sympathy
Dont break this rhythm, dont break this motion
We work together in sympathy
Dont break this rhythm, dont break this motion
We work together in sympathy
Right through these fences, cut through the stone walls
Dig out the tunnels from a solid stone
There she is, but so surrounded
All those fancy men with soft white hands
Come all this distance, that should be me there
Whatever it takes (whatever it takes), oh
Dont break this rhythm, dont break this motion
We work together in sympathy
Dont break this rhythm, dont break this motion
We work together in sympathy
Dont break this rhythm, dont break this motion
We work together in sympathy
Dont break this rhythm, dont break this motion
We work together in sympathy

Why Does It Go On?
(barry mason)
[b side of columbia db 7766, 1965]
You know it aint right to beat a man when hes down
Know it aint right to eat when the hungers around
It keeps on worryin me, as all around I see
And still it goes on
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?
You know it aint right to take another mans life
You know it aint right to take another mans wife
Keeps gettin through to me, as everywhere I see
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?
They dont want love today
Its headin all the way
Theyll burn your book and pencil boy
Throw your mind away
A man dont steal, but has to work for his pay
(let me tell you one thing)
A poker man deals from the top when he plays
But all good things we take
We dont build, we just break
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?
They dont want love today
Its headin all the way
Theyll burn your book and pencil boy
Throw your mind away
A man dont steal, but has to work for his pay
(let me tell you one thing)
A poker man deals from the top when he plays
But all good things we take
We dont build, we just break
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ? yeah

Remember I told you
Remeber I told you
I have had enough of life.
I assume you dont think
I have been through enough.
Just what is it with you?
I cant go on any longer
Rape and abuse
Has dampened my life
Now I cant go on
The voices and flashbacks
It drives me insane.
Now when you find me
You shouldnt be surprised
I did tell you
I warned you
What I was going to do.
Just remember that I told you
I didnt really want to go
But I had no other way out.
If you should ever go through
What I went through
Dont let it destroy you like i did
Dont let it destroy you

Dont Wanna
Dont want to talk, dont want to walk
Dont want to do anything
Dont want to kick, dont want to scream
Dont want to sleep, dont want to dream
Just want to sit, just want to stare
Do what you want I dont care
Wait for the phone, wait for the ring
Dont want to do anything
Chorus
Dont want to work, dont want to play
Just sit around everyday
Dont want to dance, dont want to sing
Dont want to do anything
Dont want to laugh, dont want to cry
Just want to sit and wonder why
Its just too much without your touch
Dont want to do anything

Pride
Take it. Break it. Rape it. Forsake it.
In time you will
Find it. Maim it. Thrill it and shame it
In time you will
Steal my pride
Leave me blind
Steal my pride
Take it. Break it. Rape it. Forsake it.
Take it. Break it. Rape it. Forsake it.
In time you will
Find me. Maim me. Thrill me and shame me.
In time you will
Steal my pride
Leave me blind
Steal my pride
And leave me blind

I Dont Want Your Money
I dont want your money
It dont mean a thing
I dont need no fancy clothes
Or a diamond ring
I dont have to ride in style
In your limousine
I dont want no trouble
Tax or uncle sam
All I want is you
I want to be your natural man
I dont need your prestige
cause I got my pride
I dont want your social standing
Id rather stand outside
I dont have no time to worry
bout your greedy jive
I dont want your money
I dont like that game
All I want is you
I want to be your natural man

Please Let Me Please You
(hicks / clarke)
What did you do today
You turned the other way
I tried to kiss you,
But you laughed in my face
Its a thing to do
Knowing that I love you
Dont be to hasty;
The tables will turn
Please, please, please,
Let me please you
Please let me please you
Please let me, louise
Please, please, please,
Let me please you
Please let me please you
Please let me, louise
Why are you different now
Did I hurt you somehow
If so, then tell me,
But dont laugh in my face
If I said something strong,
Ill admit I was wrong
Come on and tell me,
But dont laugh in my face
Chorus
I always treat you right
Why do you wanna fight
Go if you want to,
But dont laugh in my face
If I try kissing you,
Dont make me out a fool
Come and tell me,
But dont laugh in my face

I Dont Think We Could Ever Be Friends
(jean-alain roussel / sting)
Its the end of our journey
What can I do?
Lonely together
When Im alone with you
Now that weve come so far
It seems like the end
We could be lovers
We could never be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
We can never talk
Like others seem to do
Lonely together
Making love to you
We dont get nothing
From the letters we send
We could be lovers
We could never be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
Plus a new relationship
You know you break my heart
What I feel for yous too strong
It has been from the start
Everytime I see your face
Its tearing me apart
What is need is love from you
Oh, but I cant?
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends

Go Away
Well I think of you when I fantasize
The best I ever had
And I think of you when Im drivin
Myself completely mad
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Walkin on the footbridge
High above the clouds
Listenin to your yesterday
Didnt make a sound
Dazzled by your sweet lips
Touchin on me
Here comes trouble
Cant you see?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Well I think of you when I dramatize
The things we never did
And I think of you when Im flyin
Or when Im feelin just like a kid
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?

Dont Let Him Steel Your Heart Away
You were lonely and you needed a friend
And he was there at the right time with the right smile
Just a shoulder to lean on
Someone to tell you itll all work out alright
Dont let him steal your heart away
No, dont let him steal your heart away
Dont let him steal your heart away
No, dont let him steal your heart away
You can look at him the way you did me
And hold him close say youre never letting go
But any fool can see youre fooling yourself
But you aint fooling me
So dont let him steal your heart away
No, dont let him steal your heart away
And dont pack my suitcase, Ill be back
And dont take my pictures off a the wall
Oh, did you hear me?
Dont let him change a thing cos Ill be back
Jus tell him to pack his things and get out of your life
And just give me one more chance
Ill show you Im right, Im right
cos Ive been thinking and I know it was me leaving you lonely
But hoping you could be strong
But could you look at me straight
Tell me what else can I do but say I was wrong?
So dont let him steal your heart away
No, dont let him steal your heart away
Well hes gonna try to make it work for you
Make you think your whole lifes been leading to this
But whatever you do
Think about me and dont be fooled by his kiss
And dont let him steal your heart away
Please, dont let him steal your heart away
And dont pack my suitcase, Ill be back
And dont take my pictures off a your wall

And he was there at the right time with the right smile
Just a shoulder to lean on
Someone to say dont you worry itll all be alright
But hes no good for you
Hell make you think your whole lifes been leading to this
And whatever you do
Think about me, oh, and dont be fooled by his kiss

Dont You Know
Dont ya know, dont ya know
That it hurts to be treated like a fool?
A dont ya know, dont ya know
That its mean and its oh so cruel?
When you said you were home
It was just a lie
You were seen on the town
With another guy
Gonna break my heart in two
Oh baby dont ya know?
A dont ya know, dont ya know
That your cheatins breakin us apart?
A dont ya know, dont ya know
That youll tear my soul apart?
Why must you go foolin round every other boy
And just push me away like a broken toy
Baby feel so bad inside, oh baby dont ya know?
(instrumental)
Oh dont ya know, dont ya know
Its a foolish thing that you do?
A dont ya know, dont ya know
It could easily turn on you?
cause they say its a game only one can play
And you might be the one to get hurt someday
It could be your turn to cry
Oh baby dont ya know?
Oh dont ya know oh oh baby

Kill Jerry Garcia
Im not gonna choke on your hard sell media dope
Im not going out like that
I dont want to hear about the summer of love
Im not going back in time
I dont want to even let love rule
I want to break the back of brotherly love
I dont want to go back in time
I wanna kill jerry garcia!
I wanna take the past and throw it away
I want to burn the bridge between then and now
Im not going back in time
I wanna kill jerry garcia!
I dont want to sew the seeds of love
I want to punch marty balin in his eye
I dont wanna go back in time
I wanna kill jerry garcia!
(man, I dont have a quarter, leave me alone)
Dont want no dead blood on my hands
I wanna shake the flesh and bone
I dont wanna kill the myth
I wanna kill jerry garcia!
I wanna kick that skeleton in his teeth
Id wanna kick pigpen if he were alive
I dont want to go back in time
I want to kill jerry garcia!

They Dont Break em Like They Used To
(roger brown/jason sellers)
Youre here in my arms right where you say you wanna be
While across the room I watch the one who set you free
It didnt take me long to mend the heart she tore in two
I guess they just dont break em like they used to
I bet she thought that wounded pride of yours would never heal
But you dont have one single scar as far as I can feel
And I see nothing but perfection when I look at you
I guess they just dont break em like they used to
They dont break em like they used to, darling thats for sure
Were living proof theres nothing that true love cant cure
We put the pieces back together now youre good as new
I guess they just dont break em like they used to
All the tears have disappeared without a trace
Makes me think that heartaches dont last as long these days
We put the pieces back together now youre good as new
I guess they just dont break em like they used to
They dont break em like they used to, darling thats for sure
Were living proof theres nothing that true love cant cure
We put the pieces back together now youre good as new
I guess they just dont break em like they used to
I guess they just dont break em like they used to

Bad Bad Boy
Im a bad, bad, boy
And Im gonna steal your love
Said Im a bad, bad, boy
And Im gonna steal your love
Come take me to your house
Then Im gonna rip you off
Well I made my first kill
With the old town girl
She was the apple of her daddys eye
Well that woman looked up at me
And I said honey well be
Together till the day I die
But I lied
Im a bad, bad, boy
And Im gonna steal your love
Im a bad, bad, boy
And Im gonna steal your love
Come take me to your house
Then Im gonna rip you off
There seems to be no end
Of women who are lookin for a man
My services dont come cheap
But I help out when I can
Tell them lies that they wanna hear
Andi really lead em on
Spend all of their money
And Im long, gone
Im a bad, bad, boy
And Im gonna steal your love
Im a bad, bad, boy
And Im gonna steal your love
Come take me to your house
Then Im gonna rip you off
Ive got tastes for fast cars
I dont wanna settle down
The good life sure come s easily
With all the mugs around
The women they just come to me
I dont have to look around
I move into their homes with them
Then I move on
Im a bad, bad, boy
And Im gonna steal your love
Im a bad, bad, boy
Im gonna steal your love
Come take me to your house
Then Im gonna rip you off
Im a bad, bad, bad, bad, bad,bad, bad, bad, bad,bad,bad, bad, boy
Im bad, Im bad, Im bad, Im such a, such a bad, bad boy
Im gonna rip you off
Just take control of your mind
Im a bad, bad, boy
Im gonna steal your love
Im a bad, bad, boy
Im gonna steal your love
Im gonna rip you off
Just take control of the time
Im a bad, bad,bad,bad,bad
You know Im a bad boy

Laugh To Keep From Crying
I cant lock my door
Oh, I dont have no privacy
The only thing thats mine
Is whats inside of me
When Ive had enough
A little voice inside
It says youve got to be tough
Youve got to take it in stride
Sometimes I am foolish
I let it get the best of me
At least I know that my mistakes
Are my responsibility
And
Chorus:
I just have to laugh to keep from crying
I just have to laugh to keep from crying
I dont have a dime
Oh, to buy those pretty things
But I hear all the evidence
You know it all sounds the same
But Im still waiting
Ive got my hands open wide
You know my dream isnt fading
I keep it hidden inside
Oh
(chorus)
I just have to laugh to keep from crying
I keep on trying
My friends dont understand
Oh, they think Ive lost my mind
And Im choking back the tears
Ive got to swallow my pride

La, ah
Lo, oh

Love Is Like Clock Law
This heart is empty
Ive barely hidden memories
Ive found a picture that haunts me again
Ive no sad expression
Ive no tears in my eyes
But I am the clown who forgot how to laugh
I wonder, does she think of me?
I wonder, I wonder
I wonder, does she call my name?
I cried
Dont leave me here alone
I cried
Dont leave me, dont leave me
Love is like clock law
Tick tock my heartbeat
I was a passion that passed her spare time
This room is prison
Love doesnt come here
These quiet nights will slowly kill me
I wonder, does she think of me?
I wonder, I wonder
I wonder, does she call my name
I cried
Dont leave me here alone
I cried
Dont leave me here alone
I cried
Dont leave me, dont leave me
Dont leave me, dont leave me

Dont leave me, dont leave me here
Im quite alone

Murder and theft and all of the above

If you killed your brother or you beat your wife
And I am here to punish you
You cant fool me cause I aint no fool
The time has come to say goodbye
The end is here for those who cheat, steal and lie
There will be torture and there will be pain
Cause this is hell, baby, die in flames.

I dont care about you, dont care about your life
Dont care about your children or about your wife
Im here to do my job so if you broke the law
Youre checking in with me
But you can never leave....
Theres one way out if you dare
Well make a deal, youll grow your hell
As satans child youll start a band
And spread the word across the land

Chop up the floor
Kick out the ceilin

But, baby, please dont do it in here
Kick off the roof
Break out the panes
Smash in the walls
And bust out your brains
But, baby, please dont do it in here
Took me years to get my path straight

So take all the money
Steal all the clothes
Shoot off your pistol
