Clown Strike
Shell fix you with an iron cross
And cover you up with petals
And hang you up with some amber beads
And four or five precious metals
And in that black flamingo chair
Youll sit among her trophies
And pray to be abandoned
Till you dont know what hope is
Chorus:
But theres one thing that I had to keep inside
Because I was shaking
Why dont you get some pride
There was a clown strike
And the clowns threw down their tools
But you dont have to play so hard
And Im nobodys fool
You dont have to go so far
cause I love you as you are
The big top is deserted now
And the circus girl rehearses
She knows how to turn their heads
And not fall between two horses
But all that seems a simple step
If only I were able
To love you like I want to do
And not by some times table
Chorus
And its pandemonium
For the humble and the mighty
You dont have to tumble for me
Even a clown knows when to strike
Tell me what you want of me
Or are you terrified of failure?
You put on a superstitious face
Behind all this paraphernalia
Were not living in a masquerade
Where you only have three wishes
It isnt easy to see
In a lifetime of mistaken kisses
Chorus
In this pandemonium
For the humble and the mighty
You dont have to tumble for me
Even a clown knows when to strike

Dont Wanna
Dont want to talk, dont want to walk

Wait for the phone, wait for the ring

Cathys Clown
(don everly)
Chorus:
I want your loving more and more
I want your kisses thats for sure
I die each time
I hear the sound
Theyre saying here he comes
Hes cathys clown
You know youve got to stand tall
You know a man cant crawl
And when you let her tell you lies
And you let em pass you by
Youre not a man at all
She dont want your loving anymore
She dont want your kisses thats for sure
Why do you let them put you down
And let em call you cathys clown
When you see me shed a tear
Then you know that Im sincere
I just think its kinda sad
That shes treating you so bad
And Im the one who cares

In The Evening
(jones/page/plant)
In the evening, when the day is done
Im looking for a woman, but the girl dont come
So dont let her, play you for a fool
She dont show no pity baby, she dont make no rules
*chorus: oh, oh, I need your love, I need your love
Oh, I need your love, I just got to have
So dont you let her, oh, get under your skin
Its only bad luck and trouble, from the day that you begin
I hear you crying in the darkness, dont ask nobodys help
Aint no pockets full of mercy baby, cause you can only blame yourself
Chorus
Oh its simple, all the pain that you go through
You can turn away from fortune, fortune, cause thats all thats left to you
Its lonely at the bottom, man, its dizzy at the top
But if youre standing in the middle, aint no way youre gonna stop
Chorus
Oh whatever that your days may bring
No use hiding in a corner, cause that wont change a thing
If youre dancing in the doldrums, one day soon, its got to stop, its got to stop
When youre the master of the off-chance, when you dont expect a lot

And Im layin it on the line

Wanting to hassle the king in his castle
Revenge never tasted so sweet

He Dont Know
He took your love
But its still mine
He took all the things that I loved best
But you still aint got happiness
Gave you everything girl money can buy
Hes a real big spender and a generous guy
You gave up on me, cant understand
Deep down inside girl, Im still the man
Chorus
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know
(he dont know what to do for you) but I do
You know I do....yeah
I passed your house today
I took it real hard
There was a brand new mercedes
Parked right in front of your yard
He buys you things from a to z
But no one, no one can satisfy you like me
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know like I know
(he dont know what to do for you) but I do
You know I do
You had the world
But you wanted more
But nothin can be better than what you had before
But you still got a chance to let him go
Gave you all of the best love
One man can give (check it out)
Girl, youre gonna feel it
Just as long as I live
Gave you all the love he could
But dont you know that
I spoiled you too good
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know
(he dont know what to do for you) he will never know
(he dont know what to do for you) and I do
You know I do
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know what to do
(he dont know what to do for you) for a girl like you
(he dont know what to do for you) he will never know
Never never know like I know..

I Hope That I Dont Fall In Love With You
[ tom waits ]
Well I hope that I dont fall in love with you
cause falling in love just makes me blue,
Well the music plays and you display your heart for me to see,
I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me
And I hope that I dont fall in love with you.
Well the room is crowded, people everywhere
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
Well if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and break it,
Before the evenings gone away, I think that we could make it,
And I hope that you dont fall in love with me.
Well the night does funny things inside a man
These old tom-cat feelings you dont understand,
Well I turn around and look at you, you light a cigarette,
I wish I had the guts to bum one, but weve never met,
And I hope that I dont fall in love with you.
I can see that you are lonesome just like me, and it being late,
Youd like some some company,
Well I turn around and look at you, and you look back at me,
The guy youre with has up and split, the chair next to yous free,
And I hope that you dont fall in love with me.
Now its closing time and the musics fading out
Last call for drinks, Ill have another stout.
Well I turn around to look for you, youre nowhere to be found,
I search the place for your lost face, guess Ill have another round
And I think that I just fell in love with you.

I Dont Fall In Love So Easy
(written by rodney crowell)
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know how it feels
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know if its real
Too strong dont mean its for long
Too deep dont mean its for keeps
Fast doesnt last
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
I dont give my heart to just anyone
I dont even know how to do it
I dont give my hand to just any man
I dont wanna put myself through it
I dont want what I dont want
I cant feel what I dont feel
Its sad but its true
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
I used to pray someday to change
But I found new ways to stay the same
Until you came
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know where to start
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont understand my own heart
Its so hard to drop my guard
I dont know how to just let go
But what else can I do
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
Im fallin in love with you
Yes, Im fallin in love with you

Fall back, take a look at me

And if that dont appeal to you

And Ill go
Cuz I flow
Better when my colors show
And thats the way it has to be
Honestly
Cuz creativity
Could never bloom
In my room
Id throw it all away before I lie
So dont call me with a compromise
Hang up the phone Ive got a backbone stronger than yours

But do you give a damn?

That I cant
Not be what I am

Its not that simple here we go not so soon
I might have fallen for that when I was fourteen
In a little morph green

Love Dont Love You
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care
Love dont love you, love dont care
Verse 1:
You said youd always be there
You said youd always care
You always comfort me
You used to share things with me
You used to have time for me
Now it all seemed to end
I cant control my fears
Neither hold back tears
Knowing that somethings wrong, yeah
The more that I fight with you
The more I realize
It takes more than love
To satisfy my life
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care (its got to be you, baby)
Love dont love you, love dont care (not love, baby)
Verse 2:
I thought I never would see
The day that you and me
Could not communicate
It came to my surprise
The only reason why
We misused the four-letter words
I should have known the signs
Instead I was blind
Ignoring what people would say
When will I ever learn
Cant blame it all on one word
Some words can seem more brutal than kind
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care (love dont love you)
Love dont love you, love dont care (got to be you)
Love dont love you (love dont care about you, no way, no way, no way)
Love dont care no way
Bridge:
You see it takes a fool to learn
That love dont love nobody (got to be you)
But Ive learned
That love dont love me
And it sure cant love you (can only be you, oh)
So what are you gonna do
Dont just say you love me (baby)
You got to show me (show me that you care)
So where do we go from here
You tell me
You got to show me that you love me
Show me that you care
I need to know that you will always be there
Im gonna be there for you
Love dont love no one
And it sure dont care
Love dont love nobody
You should take my advice
Show me that you love me
Show me that you care, baby

Love dont love you, love dont care
Love dont love you, love dont care

Love Is Never Easy
(j. macrae, b. morrison)
Love should be easy
Its such a natural thing
Nothing feels like the feeling
Only love can bring
Love can be laughter
Or heartaches in disguise
You could love a lifetime
And never realize
Chorus:
Love is never easy
Dreams are always hard to hold
Love is never easy
But its more precious than gold
More precious than gold
More precious than gold
Love is forever
Until the day that it ends
Love can just be for lovers
Love can be for friends
So dont give up looking
And dont be afraid to fall
Cause when you find that one love
Youll know its worth it all

I Dont Want Your Love
I, dont mind, if youre keeping someone else behind,
I, dont care, cuz youve got something I can share,
Hey, take your chance, even if its only -
Only while were dancing in the light, of your second sight
Because when you understand me you might feel good around me now.
I dont want your love to bring me down.
I dont want your love so turn it around.
I, wont turn you out, if youve got someone else -
Someone else you care about, because you, must realize,
My obsessive fascination is in your imagination (now pick it up)...
I dont want your love to bring me down
I dont want your love so turn it around
(I dont what your love, I dont what your love)
Your rythym is the power - to move me
Its something you control - completely,
I dont want your love,
I dont want your love.
(I dont what your love)
-
I, like noise, cuz I like waking up the house
I cannot sit down, I cant shut my mouth,
But when you understand me,
You might feel good around me (now back it up)...
(chorus) (chorus)
I dont want your love.
(I dont what your love)
I dont want your love.
(I dont what your love)
I dont want your love to bring me down..

If It Isnt Love
I dont love her
I tried to tell myself
But you can see it in my eyes
So dont deny
I cant fool no one else
The truth is in the tears I cry cause
Chourus:
If it isnt love
Why do I feel this way
Why does she stay on my mind
If it isnt love
Why does it hurt so bad
Make me feel so sad inside
Of it isnt love
I told her Id never fall in love (rap)
But now I know better
How does it feel
I cant describe this feelin
That came when I saw her last night
She got to me
Ill let you know the reason
I saw her with anohter guy so
Chorus
Maybe shell take me back
Hey girl hes begging
I made a big mistake
Wont you forgive him girl
Now I can feel it
Hes never felt before

You love her, what?
It took my heart
To shatter in a thousand pieces
Before Id ever drop my pride
Losing love worrying about my image
Really helped me realize that
