Ramshackle Man

My clothes dont fit and I have no point of view
I got a bad reputation but I dont believe its true
I had something going but I blew it down the can
Not exactly what I planned
Im a ramshackle man
Thats what I am
I look like a joker but I feel like a one eyed jack
Shuffling around never get to the top of the park
I said to the dealer put the ace in my hand
But he couldnt give a damn
Im a ramshackle man
Thats what I am
I sit down thinking bout the things I have to do
I start out fine then I pick up something new
Stumbled through the door thats how it all began
Now its buried in the sand
Im a ramshackle man
Thats what I am
The stars shine bright when the boys come out to play
Never feeling more than Im feeling right here today
I used to be fresh but now Im second hand
I do what I can
Im a ramshackle man
Thats what I am

Back 2 Good

Its nothing, its so normal you
Just stand there I could say so much
But I dont go there cuz I dont want to
I was thinking if you were lonely
Maybe we could leave here and no one would know
At least not to the point that we would think so
Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking about
Somebody else
Its best if we all keep it under our heads
I couldnt tell, if anyone here was feeling
The way I do
But Im lonely now, and I dont know how
To get it back to good
I dont mean that, you own me
This aint no good, in fact its phony
As hell
But things worked out just like you wanted too
If you see me out you dont know me
Try to turn your head, try to give me some room
To figure out just what Im going to do
And everyone here, hates everyone here for
Doing just like
They do
Its best if we all keep this quite instead
And I couldnt tell, why everyone here was
Doing me like
They do
But Im sorry now, and I dont know how
To get it back to good
Everyone here, is wondering what its like to be with
Somebody else
Everyone heres to blame, everyone here
Gets caught up in the pleasure of the pain,
Everyone hides
Shades of shame, but looking inside were the same, were
The same
And were all grown now, but we dont know
How
To get it back to good
Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking bout
Somebody else
Its best if we all keep this under our heads
I couldnt tell, if anyone here was feeling
The way I do
But its over now, and I dont know how, its over now
Theres no getting back to good

Mannequin and a pauper

This nonchalant beggar who loves a model queen
in a showcase.
When his till is full of coins
he just heads for an isolated pub
drinks a little and have a scanty meal of junk food.
In the night he backs to his ramshackle bed on the pavement
and makes a sound sleep.
They never talk each other and only in dreams
they wander hand-in-hand in no-go area; the 'paradise.'

Something About You

Ive only known what it is to be lonely
When into my life, you came walking through
Can this be real, I dont know what Im feeling
Ooh, theres something bout you
And I cant believe the way that you know me
You sense every mood, ooh you know when Im blue
But here in my heart, ooh theres mixed up emotions
Ooh, theres something bout you
I never wanted anybody, and I wont start now
I never planned it, I dont understand it, so tell me what can I do
Dont turn away, ooh I think Im still learning
Yeah, theres something bout you
(solo)
Ooh, here in my heart, ooh theres mixed up emotions
But theres something bout you
You know theres something bout you
Theres something bout you, you came shining through, babe
Now theres something bout you, I dont know, I dont know what Im feeling
Theres something bout you, I dont know, I dont know
Yeah theres something bout you

Ramshackle

You've been so long
Your blind eyes are gone
Your old bones are on their own

So take off your coat
Put a song in your throat
Let the dead-beats pound all around

We will go
Nowhere we know
We don't have to talk at all
Hand me downs
Flypaper towns
Stuck together
One and all

The bargains you drive
Buckets and bags
And all your belongings

Your train's in the sand
Ramshackle land
Let the rats watch the races

We will go
Nowhere we know
'Til we find our one and all
Hand me downs
Flypaper towns
Stuck together
One and all

Praises get spent
Your trick face is bent
Pigsties and prizes

'Cause there's no kind of 'well'
You're suiting yourself
You leave yourself behind

We will go
Nowhere we know
'Til we find our one and all
Your hand me downs
Flypaper towns
Stuck together
One and all

A song but no lyrics

He's a ramshackle piano and his partner's cheesy finger tips
touch the wobble reeds.
The intonation of music comes out with his cries and her tears
like a salty wind from a consonant Ocean.

Dont You Think?

Some people
Dont worry
bout nothing
Dont know whats going on
Im not one
Who cant say theyre sorry
I just care whats going on
Theres more important things
Than making sure your watch looks just right
And second hand opinions
Dont make you look any smarter
Dont you think
Dont you think
Dont you think that maybe
Its time , yes its time
Time you started thinking
Time you started thinking
And dont just sweeten up the taste
Brother shoots brother
But meanwhile youre fixing up your face
Youre not affected by the truth
Unless its on your doorstep
Deodorise your paradise
No point in getting crazy
Dont you think
Dont you think
Dont you think that maybe
Its time , yes its time
Time you started thinking bout things in the back of your head
Someone said before you turn a blind eye
Hear a bell ring sex sells everything
But I dont buy it so dont try it
Sleeping in the small world head in the sand
Better wash your hands , make a new plan
Theres more important things
Than making sure your shoes just walk right
Ignore reality theres nothing you can do about it . . .
The clothes you wear dont make the man
Its just another party
(chorus)

I Cant Get Her Off My Mind

By tommy boyce and bobby hart
Ive been standing on the corner all day
Tryin to think of little things to say
cause she walks by evry day about this time
And I dont think, Ill ever get her off of my mind.
Well I only met her bout a week ago
But the way she smiles let me know
That she could see that maybe we were two of a kind.
And I dont think Ill ever get her off of my mind.
Oh shes so pretty I couldnt believe
Shed ever look my way
But the way Im feeling
Im gonna be stealing
That little girls heart today.
Well, Im so happy I could almost fly
And I guess you know the reason why,
Im walkin down the street with her little hand in mine.
And I dont think Ill ever get her off of my mind.
Oh shes so pretty I couldnt believe
Shed ever look my way
But the way Im feeling
Im gonna be stealing
That little girls heart today.
Well, Im so happy I could almost fly
And I guess you know the reason why,
Im walkin down the street with her little hand in mine.
And I dont think Ill ever get her off of my mind.
And I dont think Ill ever get her off of my mind.

May The Sunshine

May the sun, the sun shine bright
May the sun shine bright on you
May the sun, the sun shine bright
May the sun shine bright on you
Someone woke me up again last night
Talkin to me about my last time
Dont tell me I know its late
Please, please lay me down a line
Pick me up before I start to fall
Never let your dreams grow small
May the sun, the sun shine bright
May the sun shine bright on you
May the sun, the sun shine bright
May the sun shine bright on you
Talkin to my lover, she was out
It was independence day
Dont be nervous , you can hold me tight
Someone turned the light out on the stairs
Was it just the wind I heard
Just another helping hand
May the sun, the sun shine bright
May the sun shine bright on you
May the sun, the sun shine bright
May the sun shine bright on you
Take me back down the yellow brick road
Let me get my ticket to your heart
Strangers hidin on my land
Could it be its keepin me apart
Give me time dont you gimme no love
Let the sunshine in your heart

Dont Bother Me

Dont come round here looking for my sympathy
Dont come round here looking for my prayers
You spent the eighties in a trance
Yeah you led us all on a merry dance
Now its sad to say that I dont care
You were always advocating power games
You were always gonna be a star
You made your money, had your fun
Made a video bout how its done
Aint put it in my vcr
So far
Dreams fall into disrepair
Theres a change in the air
Your lies
Will lead you to despair
Dont bother me
(castles in the sand slip through your hand)
Dont bother me - I dont give a damn
Dont bother me
(try to understand its in your hand)
Dont bother me
Well no amount of liquor, babe, can drown the blues today
No amount of pills can ease the pain
When the body electric and the vision thing
Is all it takes to make the people sing
Lets hope we dont get fooled again
My friend
Dreams fall into disrepair
Theres a change in the air
Theres a girl who says she cares
And her love
Will leave you standing there
Dont bother me
(I cant change your mind when youre so blind)
Dont bother me - I cant spare the time
Dont bother me
(takes an ocean wide to turn tide)
Dont bother me - love cant be denied
Dont bother me
(castles in the sand slip through your hand)
Dont bother me - I dont give a damn
Dont bother me

Don't Break My Heart

There was you, there was me
Everything was cool far as I could see
Thought our love was strong
But something deep inside tells me that I was wrong
Could it be a memory from your past
Could it be these things werent meant to last
If theres somewhere else youd rather be
Why dont you cut these ties and set me free
Told you once - told you twice
You should never play with love and thats good advice
Wanna know how you feel
Getta tell me something baby - whats the deal
Oh no! Dont break my heart
Oh no! Finish what you start
Oh no! Dont break my heart
Oh no! Finish what you start
Left me once - took you back
Said Id give you one more chance and thats a fact
Wanna know what to do
Really need to find out cause Im feeling blue
Could it be the end of our romance
Could it be this love is left to chance
Maybe you dont feel the same inside
Go on walk out the door and leave my pride
Just cant stop thinking bout things I used to need that I can do without
Feel confused - by myself
Is it really over is our love back on the shelf

Boys

Written by ricky & marty wilde
Fresh out of school the young girl lose the sound
Shes gonna go where the young bands hang around
And its still to right with a voice inside
Shes screaming, dreaming
And theres no disguise when you look in her eyes shes scheming
Im thinking about the boys
Shes thinking about the boys
Thinking about the boys
There in the dark he starts to touch her hair
Others go round but right now you dont care
Well you just dont fight when theyre holding you tight
That feeling, feeling
Well it looks to good and hes making it so appealing
Im thinking about the boys
Thinking about the boys
Thinking about the boys
Still feeling ground as she goes to make the kill
Watching her move the world is standing still
Cos its still too right with a voice inside
You screaming, dreaming
And theres no disguise when you look in their eyes shes scheming
Im thinking about the boys
Thinking about the boys
Thinking about the boys

How can I get more information about the journey to heaven?

I ride my ramshackle bicycle that has no seat to rest my skinny buttocks well.
This thorny road is not easy to go and I scared that anytime I get a tyre puncture or cut.
Along the road I found cemeteries and these dumb tombs never talk.
You could see only their dates of birth and burial and what else?

To a faraway friend only in dreams I have seen him
And he looks like me a sad face but a strong heart?

Buried Treasure

Now if the aim in your life is to settle me down
I couldnt change my point of view
I got a lady in red at the back of my head
But the women in white is you
Do you wanna be the only one
Fade away in the morning sun
I could love you all of my life
You are my wife
Havent I let you know
We dont need no buried treasure
No buried treasure - we dont need it
We dont stand on ceremony
I love you only - Im proud of it
You can never be all you wanna be
When youre living for gold
We dont need no buried treasure
I still got you
I still go you in my soul
Well its a long way down and you gotta get up
You got to figure on a master plan
You couldnt do it if you dont get ready
When youre beaten by the other man
Do you wanna be the last one in
Play the game that you just dont win
I can see me making you cry
Saying goodbye
But I could never let you go
We dont need no buried treasure
No buried treasure - we dont need it
We dont stand on ceremony
I love you only - Im proud of it
You can never be all you wanna be
When youre living for gold
We dont need no buried treasure
I still got you
I still got you in my soul
Well youre taking my life in the palm of your hand
Make you mine for another day
Aint nobody doesnt need anybody
When the good times turn away
I dont wanna be the lonely one
Fade away in the evening sun
I could love you all of my life
You are my wife
Havent I told you so
We dont need no buried treasure
No, buried treasure - we dont need it
We dont stand on ceremony
I love you only - Im proud of it
You can never be all you wanna be
When youre living for gold
We dont need no buried treasure
I still got you
I still got you in my soul

You Say You Dont Love Me

You say you dont love me
Well thats alright with me cause Im in love with you
And I wouldnt want you doing things you dont want to do
Oh you know Ive always wanted you to be in love with me
And it took so long to realize the way things have to be
I wanted to live in a dream that couldnt be real
And Im starting to understand now the way that you feel
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont love me
Well thats alright with me cause I have got the time
To wait in case someday you maybe change your mind
Ive decided not to make the same mistakes this time around
As Im tired of having heartaches Ive been thinking and Ive found
I dont want to live in a dream
I want something real
And I think I understand now the way that you feel
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont love me
Well thats alright with me
Im not in love with you
I just want us to do the things we both want to do
Though Ive got this special feeling Id be wrong to call it love
For the word entails a few things that I would be well rid of
Ive no need to live in a dream
Its finally real
And I hope you now understand this feeling I feel
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont love me
You say you dont love me
You say you dont love me

The Bomber

When I became of age
My momma sat me down
She said, son youve grown up
Its time to look around
So I began to notice some things i
Hadnt seen before
Thats what brought me hope
Knockin on your back door
A closet queen, the worst Ive seen
She wants to shake my hand
I dont want to be there
When she decides she can
Its apple dan, hes just the man
To pick fruit off your branches
I cant sleep if he cant keep
His cattle off my ranches
Its too strong, somethings wrong
And I guess I lost the feeling
I dont mind the games you play
But I dont like you dealing
The cards look bad, my lucks been had
And theres nothin left to smoke
Will all be back tomorrow
For the punch line of the joke

Shall I Tell You A Story?

Shall I tell you a story about a mouse
That lived in the wall of a very old house?
He dined on scraps that fell from the table
And dodged the cat whenever he was able.

Shall I tell you a story about a cat
Who sat by the fire, on a lovely warm mat?
He'd prowl the house with a haughty strut,
But would stay out of range of the yapping mutt!

Shall I tell you a story about a pup,
Who next to his master's feet would curl up?
A more faithful friend you never will see.
His name 'True Blue' fits him to a tee!

Shall I tell you a story about a man
Who muddles along the best that he can,
With his dog, and his cat, and even the mouse?
Contented, they stay in that ramshackle house.

Push

She said I dont know if Ive ever been good enough
Im a little bit rusty, and I think my head is caving in
And I dont know if Ive ever really been loved
By the hand thats touched me, well I feel like something gonna give
And Im a little bit angry, well
This aint over, no not here, not while I still need you
Around
You dont owe me, we might change
Yeah we just might feel good
(chorus)
I wanna push you around, I will, I will
I wanna push you down, I will, I will
I wanna take you for granted(2x)
I will
She said I dont know why you ever would lie to me
Like Im a little untrusting when I think that the truth is
Gonna hurt ya
And I dont why you couldnt just stay with me
You couldnt stand to be near me
When my face dont seem to want to shine cuz its a little bit dirty well
Dont just stand there, say nice things to me
Ive been cheated Ive been wronged, and you
You dont know me, I cant change
I wont do anything at all

Oh but dont bowl me over
Just wait a minute well it kinda fell apart, things get so
Crazy, crazy
Dont rush this baby(2x)

Cold, Cold Heart

Suddenly, you get a crazy feeling
Then in harmony
I wont be trading places
Now youre history,
Forget the time I let you play
Your mystery n I dont know
Happy from the start
Then ripped and torn apart
Looking for a place within your heart
Cold, cold heart
Not like the stars that shine so bright
Cold, cold heart of mine
Dont you remember
Cold, cold heart of mine
Close to me youre taking out the boy in me
Your chemistry
Frightens all the life from me
Your honesty
Sometimes aint so good
For your mystery n I dont know
Happy from the start
Then ripped and torn apart
Looking for a place within your heart
Cold, cold heart
Not like the stars that shine so bright
Cold, cold heart of mine
Dont you remember
Cold, cold heart
Cold, cold heart of mine
Loves for nothing but you try to get much more
Looking for something you never had before
The words left unspoken
Just walked right out the door for evermore
For evermore
The magic that love brings
The magic, oh,
That lights the stars so bright
Shine so bright
Yeah, gonna tell the world I love her
Gonna tell the world I love her
Cold, cold heart of mine
Dont you remember
Cold, cold heart
Shine so bright
Cold, cold heart of mine
Dont you remember
Cold, cold heart, yeah
