Unfortunate Thing

Breaking out of school
Aint really fooling no one
I was sure Id get my reward in time
Backing uo the street
With the smell of sweet sensation
Didnt want to be another dime
Hidden in the pocket
Of some unfortunate nation
Didnt have no money, sure didnt have the time
Chorus:
Unfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing
Unfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing
But I fought with nothing
But I fought with nothing
Laughing at the rumor
That youve been screwing someone
Laugh better cry
It could be your turn next time
Brother what a lover beyond the fourth dimesion
Hes got an ego
Thats bigger than yours and mine
(chorus)
Dont call me bwana
Let it settle in your heart
We move from children
Into a business counterpart
Your head was shaking as I walked into the room
A spirit breaking
Thats why I feel this way
Breaking out of school
Aint really fooling no one
I was sure Id get my reward in time
Backing up a street
With a smell of sweet sensation
Didnt want to be another dime
(chorus)

Tired

You been talking for an hour
And I swear to God that I cant hear a word you say
So would you come to me, come to me
I get caught up in the waves of conversation, they wash over me
And they cover me, they cover me
Chorus 1:
Should I just pack my things and leave
Would I be a bigger man if i
I build a wall around your heart, dare you to come in
I can lie to you, and say I didnt mean it
But hurts a funny thing and
It makes you stronger
Chorus 2:
Where all is nothing in moderation
Its a dirty feeling, it makes you stronger
Well I believe Im just plain tired
Theres a funny way your lip shakes
When I know that youve been lying and it touches me,
Mmmm....said it comforts me, it comforts me
Well I guess I should be satisfied cause you say you love me half the time
Well Ill settle there, we can build from there, build from there
Would you be happier if I was only half the man I am
You could shout at me, dare me to come in
I can lie to you, and say I didnt mean it,
But it really doesnt matter when you stop to think about it
(chorus 2)
Chorus 3:
Say the end is coming she dont even feel it,
Its a strange sensation, Im almost happy
Well I believe Im just plain tired
Im tired
(chorus 1)
(chorus 2)

The Best Thing You Ever Had

(yeah, blues!)
I wont ask where youre going
If you dont ask where Ive been
cause if youre looking for an answer, babe
I wouldnt know where to begin.
I dont know what I want sometimes
But I sure know what I likes
Youve got that thing about you
Gets me hot inside
If it makes no sense when I wrote this song
Cause half way through it you were turning me on
Chorus #1:
Lay me down
I just might be your kind
Ill show you a better way
We can do away the time
If you stop looking so hard
I think you just might find
I aint finding it so bad
Might be the best thing you ever had
You know a little bout love and
I know a lot about hate
I believe you gotta make things happen
You believe in fate
But this wont be the first time that
We didnt see eye to eye
You may not be religious but Ill make you see god
If you give me a try
I know love can get me through it
If you give me that look well get down to it
Chorus #2:
Dont shoot me down
Im not a social disease
Youve got that thing about you
Bring a grown man to his knees
Ill teach you baby
bout them birds and them bees
When you get around
And think about it aint so bad
Might be the best thing you ever had
Best thing I ever had
Solo
Ah, give me some of that!
When I put out the dog
Ya get them old ghosts out of bed.....
I aint looking for a little to say
Baby some place to lay my head
Im the one to right your wrong
If you give me a chance and Ill turn you on
Chorus #1
Chorus #2

He Aint With Me

Calling all these other guys
Im seeing something I didnt before
Is that a new look in your eyes
Now you dont believe that Im asking for more
I saw you walking down the street
With another girl who looks just like me
People always say we look so happy
He took my love but he didnt take me
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He says he loves me but he dont look in my eyes
But Ill take it till its all gone cause
He aint with me but at least Im not alone
You say you laughed with your old girlfriend
Youre doing nothing to encourage the end
I could be charming on long distance too
And if you want Ill make it easier for you
Communication is the key
Interrogation dont work for me
You saw that other guy smiling at me
If you were here I wouldnt act so free
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He says he loves me but he dont look in my eyes
He likes to hold my hand in public
Stranger cant you see he aint with me
He aint with me he aint with me no more
He aint with me he aint with me
Bridge
I guess fate really has my number
Every time you wander away
I reconsider all the time you said youd stay
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He aint with me no more
He likes to hold my hand in public
He aint with me he aint with me
But Ill take it till its all gone cause
He aint with me but at least Im not alone
He aint with me

They Don't Make Hearts (Like They Used To)

When my grandad fell in love with my grandma
Hearts were made to last, Hearts were strong
But over the years they must have changed somehow
Look at us now - something must be wrong.
Chorus:
They dont make hearts like they used to
These days a heart aint worth a dime,
They dont make hearts like they used to
Theyre breaking all the time.
When my folks fell in love, They had no doubt
Whatever came their way, They would just work out
Now someones breaking up, Everytime you turn around
No one seems to know what love is all about.
Chorus:
They dont make hearts like they used to
These days a heart aint worth a dime,
They dont make hearts like they used to
Theyre breaking all the time.
It theres any hope for us to last for long
Then weve got to find the kind of love
Old hearts were built upon.
Chorus:
They dont make hearts like they used to
These days a heart aint worth a dime,
They dont make hearts like they used to
Theyre breaking all the time...

Never Gonna Cry Again

Im never gonna cry again
Im never gonna die again
I shed some tears for you
I shed more tears for you than the ocean
I didnt wanna let you know
I didnt wanna take your time
I didnt wanna bring you down
I didnt want to hang around you
So were living in desperate times
Oh such an unfortunate time
I cant relate to you
I just cant find a place to be near you

Seeing The Real You At Last

Well, I thought that the rain would cool things down
But it looks like it dont.
Id like to get you to change your mind
But it looks like you wont.
From now on Ill be busy,
Aint goin nowhere fast.
Im just glad its over
And Im seeing the real you at last.
Well, didnt I risk my neck for you,
Didnt I take chances?
Didnt I rise above it all for you,
The most unfortunate circumstances?
Well, I have had some rotten nights,
Didnt think that they would pass.
Im just thankful and grateful
To be seeing the real you at last.
Im hungry and Im irritable
And Im tired of this bag of tricks.
At one time there was nothing wrong with me
That you could not fix.
Well, I sailed through the storm
Strapped to the mast,
But the time has come
And Im seeing the real you at last.
When I met you, baby,
You didnt show no visible scars.
You could ride like annie oakley,
You could shoot like belle starr.
Well, I dont mind a reasonable amount of trouble,
Trouble always comes to pass
But all I care about now
Is that Im seeing the real you at last.
Well, Im gonna quit this baby talk now,
I guess I should have known.
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,
I think maybe wed better leave each other alone.
Whatever you gonna do,
Please do it fast.
Im still trying to get used to
Seeing the real you at last.

Didnt I?

(carly simon)
Didnt I give you midnight?
Didnt I give you the month of june
Didnt I make it alright
When everything was ruined
Didnt I say didnt i
Didnt you say didnt I too
Didnt we both say didnt i
till didnt we say were through
Didnt I try, didnt I cry
Didnt i?
Sorry that your mother dropped you on your head
Maybe her mother dropped her too
In the end we all get dropped
We all get black and blue
But didnt I always love you long
When time was short and the night was cold
Didnt I admit that I was wrong
When the anger was new but the fight was old
Didnt I say didnt i
till didnt we say were through
Didnt I try, didnt I cry
Didnt i, didnt i,
Didnt I do?

Somethings Happenin

(l. stansfield/i. devaney/a. morris)
Dont ask a question, then I wont tell a lie
Didnt want connections, but this thing is taking over
Its workin overtime, I didnt know emotions

Could make me feel this high
I feel like I could fly, like luck is on my side
Chorus
Somethins happenin
I dont know what, I dont know why
Somethin unbelievable, somethins happenin
Aint no matter how I try, I cant shake the feelin
Ive lost control over my own heart
Its got me reeling now, and this is just the start
Know where you come from, Im in touch with your mind
No, this cant be undone
This love is for all time
It wasnt meant to hide
Its warming me inside

Busted

Ooh what you fell into
Its really nothin new
Well its the same thing every day
Im in the wrong place at the wrong time
With what I do and say
Ive tried and tried to right my wrongs
And turn em all around
Turn em around, turn em around, turn em around
Chorus
*busted
Busted for what I did
I didnt think it so wrong
Busted
Busted for what I did
I didnt think it so wrong
Busted
Busted for what I did
I didnt think it so wrong
I didnt, I didnt think it so wrong, well
Well I made a big mistake
But baby thats the breaks
I cant erase whats done is done
Dont have the best of luck
I think enuffs enuff
And my mind is on the run
Time to go, time to show
Well turn it around
Turn it around, turn it around, turn it around
* repeat
Now Im faced with another mistake
Every step I take, and every move I make
Face to face, another disgrace
Face to face, but thats the breaks
Wouldnt trade place
To see the look on your face
Tell me where youve been
Youve got to keep it in
And baby, please dont give it up
Im gonna be with you
Deep inside of you
Ill never give you up
Ive tried and tried
To be so strong
An turn it all around
Turn it around, turn it around, turn it around
* repeat x3
Busted
Busted for what I did

Just About Glad

Im just about glad that I knew you once
And it was more than just a passing acquaintance
Im just about glad that it was a memory
That doesnt need constant maintenance
There are a few things that I regret
But nothing that I need to forget
For all of the courage that we never had
Im just about glad
Chorus:
Just about glad we didnt do that thing
Just about glad we didnt have that fling
Just about glad we didnt give it a try
Just about glad, is that a tear in your eye
And on the few times I rang to propose
There was a man there or so I suppose
The greatest lover that you never had
Im just about glad
They called time and vodka and lime
In some far flung canadian club
(just about glad)
And there I was just waiting to fall
Like a toe just aching to stub
(just about glad)
Later on I could never accept it
When you finally gave it all to him
(just about glad)
And you said that my nurse was sweet
But her lamp was just beginning to dim
Im just about glad
That we never did that thing we were going to do
Im just about glad I can look you in the eye
But I cant say the same for you
And though the passion still flutters and flickers
It never got into our knickers
For all of the courage that we never had
Im just about, Im just about
Im just about, Im just about
Chorus
And its all just a stupid creation
Of my feverous imagination
If Im the greatest lover that you never had
Im just about, Im just about
Im just about, Im just about
Chorus
Is that a tear in your eye [3x]

Didnt I Say I Love You

(elliot wolff / stacy piersa)
Something sweet fills my soul with wonder
Tender arms wrap me in my slumber
Cherished thoughts keep our hearts together
Safe and warm, nothing could be better
I will be there whenever you call me
Didnt I say I love you
I will be there to keep your tears from falling
Didnt I say I do
Just a breath passing from your two lips
And I forget everything, I lose it
Just a look makes me feel the madness
In my world no one else will have it
Chorus
Time may change some things
But you and me will always last forever
Dreams may come and go but we, we know
Will always be together
(didnt I say I love you, boy)
Chorus
I will be there no matter what the reason
Didnt I say I love you
I will be there and I will never leave you
Didnt I say I do

Didnt Have The Heart

Verse1:
I found somebody new
Though you mustnt believe
That means Im over you
I know that in time
Well figure it out
Youll read my mind
And though Ill wait for that day
Without making a sound
I dont want to be
The one whos letting you down
I just want you to know
The reason behind the rhyme
Chorus:
Its not that
I didnt have the time
Didnt have the love
I didnt have the strength
Not to fall apart
Its not that I dont care
Its just I wouldnt dare
Cause I just dont have the heart
Verse2:
Love is not black and white
Youd believe that its true
If you saw me tonight
I struggle with what is real
But the logical side
Doesnt stop what I feel
And though youre holding your breath
To be given a sign
Your heart cannot be
Broken in pieces like mine
I just want you to know
The reason behind the rhyme
Chorus:
Its not that
I didnt have the time
Didnt have the love
I just didnt have the strength
Not to fall apart
Its not that I dont care
Its just I wouldnt dare
Cause I just dont have the heart
Bridge:
Loving you was more than I could stand
I was scared my heart was in your hand
But I know now
I figured it out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
I must let go
Chorus:
Yes I had the time
Yes I had the love
I just didnt have the strength
Not to fall apart
Its not that I dont care
Its just I wouldnt dare
Cause I just dont have the heart
I dont have the heart

Wish I Didnt Know Now

(toby keith)
I never ask you where your goin,
I never ask you where youve been
Ive never called and checked your story,
When you stayed out with all your friends
Ive never tried to catch you lyin,
I didnt want to know the truth
Id rather go on lovin blind girl,
Than go on lovin without you
I wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then
I wish I could start this whole thing over again
Im not sayin its you,
You could never be true
I just dont wanna know how it ends
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hands
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Ive always said what I dont know
Couldnt hurt as bad as leavin you
Turns out I knew what I was thinkin,
It aint an easy thing to do,
Well I guess I should be goin
I sure found out too much to stay,
Please dont say your sorry
I might wait another day
I wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then
I wish I could start this whole thing over again
Im not sayin its you,
You could never be true
I just dont wanna know how it ends
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hands
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hand

Hidden Shame

Im sorry to say that you dont know me
Im sad in ways you never understood
Each time I try to tell the ugly truth
You always let it pass you by
You said I d never tell you a lie
Just because I could
Did you really think I was a bad man?
You always said that that should be my middle name
But you dont know the half of it
You dont know how that name fits
You dont know my hidden shame
Hidden shame, shame, shame
That I cant get free
From the blame and the torture
And the misery
Must it be my secret for eternity?
Till you know my hidden shame you really dont know me
Well, theres a different kind of prison
And it dont even have to look much like a cell
Its already on your mind
Boy, we can see it in your eyes
So, heres the bars and walls as well
Well, you know Im never coming home, babe
You said youd stand by me until I cleared my name
Sure its easy to be strong
When you know the charge is wrong
But the days and weeks get long
When youve got a hidden shame
Chorus
I had a friend when I was just a boy
We were like brothers, we would run and hide
And we went walking on a high hillside
And I really dont how it happened
He turned to me and had this strange look in his eye
And not a single word was spoken
I must have pushed him, but I dont remember why
And all at once, he lay there broken
And I walked down without him and I didnt even sigh
Chorus
They say you always hurt the one you love
And Im not saying if I did or if I didnt
But like my shame, that kind of love is always hidden
They locked me up here for the ideas in my head
They never got me for the thing I really did

And my heart is beatin like a drum
And my words dont make a sound
And Im dancin but my feet aint on the ground

I didnt mean - I didnt mean to make you stay - oh no
I didnt mean to let you get your way
I didnt mean - I didnt mean to fool around - oh no...

Breaking The Law

There I was completely wasting, out of work and down
All inside its so frustrating as I drift from town to town
Feel as though nobody cares if I live or die
So I might as well begin to put some action in my life
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
So much for the golden future, I cant even start
Ive had every promise broken, theres anger in my heart
You dont know what its like, you dont have a clue
If you did youd find yourselves doing the same thing too
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
You dont know what its like
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law

Aint What You Do

When I was a kid, about half past three
My ma said daughter, come here to me
Says, things may come and things may go
But this is one thing you ought to know
(chorus1)
Aint what you do, its the way that you do it (x3)
Thats what gets results
Aint what you do, its time that you do it (x3)
Thats what gets results
You can try hard, dont mean a thing
Take it easy, easy, in the jiven swing
Aint what you do, its the place that you do it
Aint what you do, its the time that you do it
Aint what you do, its the way that you do it
Thats what gets results
Youve learned your abcs, youve learned your dfgs
But this is something you dont learn in school
So get your hip boots on, and then you carry on
But remember not to try too hard or it dont mean a thing
(chorus)
Aint what you do, its the time you do it (2x)
Aint what you sing its the way that you sing it
Thats what gets results (2x)

I Cant Stand It

Youve been told, so maybe its time that you learned.
Youve been sold, maybe its time that you earned.
I cant stand it.
Youre fooling around, I cant stand it.
Youre running around, I cant stand it.
Youre fooling around with my heart.
Ill explain; I feel like Im being used.
Make it plain, so you dont get confused.
