Sticks And Stones

People talkin', tryin' to break us up
Why don't they let us be
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But talk don't bother me
(No) People talkin', tryin' to break us up
When they know that I love you so
So I don't care what the people might say
I'm never gonna let you go
I've been abused (I've been abused)
In my heart (I've been accused)
I've been accused (I've been accused)
I've been rebuked and I've been stomped
(Well) People talkin', tryin' to break us up
They're scandalizing my name
They'll say anything just to make me feel bad
They'll say anything to make me shamed
I've been abused (I've been abused)
In my heart (I've been accused)
I've been accused (I've been accused)
I've been rebuked and I've been stomped
(Well) People talkin', tryin' to break us up
They're scandalizing my name
They'll say anything just to make me feel bad
They'll say anything to make me shamed

Third Degree

(by eddie boyd and willie dixon)
Got me accused of peeping, I cant see a thing.
Got me accused of petting, I cant even raise my hand.
Bad luck, bad luck is killing me.
Well I just cant stand no more of this third degree.
Got me accused of murder, I aint harmed a man.
Got me accused of forgery, I cant even write my name.

Got me accused of taxes, I aint got a dime.
Got me accused of children, and aint nary one of them was mine.

Faith-walkin People

Well, it seems with you
There is something new
Every time I turn around.
Oh, I never really know quite what to expect,
But it wont get me down.
cause I know you bring
Each and everything
Just to teach me how to live.
And the secret of it all is trusting in you,
And the wisdom you give.
So say goodbye to the feelings,
cause the feelings go away.
Say goodbye to the people,
cause the people never stay.
And say goodbye to the future,
When it blinds you to today.
And say goodbye to the reasoning
Thats standing in the way,
Oh, weve got to break away.
Break away to be
Faith-walkin people,
You cant rely on everything you feel.
Faith-talkin people,
We must discern whats really real.
Faith-walkin people,
You cant believe in everything you see.
Faith-talkin people,
Seems like such a mystery.
Daaa...da ba da dah-dat dah.
Da ba dah...da ba da dah-dat dah.
Da ba lat-dah dat dah.
But in all the earth
There is nothing worth
Half as much as life with you.
cause the people and things were countin on here,
Theyre gonna pass away too.
But I dont understand
Everything hes been,
But I dont really have to know.
cause hes giving me a joy thats filling my heart,
But Ive learned to let go.
So say goodbye to the feelings,
cause the feelings go away.
Say goodbye to the people,
cause the people never stay.
And say goodbye to the future,
When it blinds you to today.
And say goodbye to the reasoning
Thats standing in the way,
Oh, weve got to break away.
Break away to be
Faith-walkin people,
You cant rely on everything you feel.
Faith-talkin people,
We must discern whats really real.

Love

CHORUS:
Everybody keeps tryin' 2 break my heart
Everybody except 4 me
I just want a chance 2 play the part
The part of someone truly free
Like candle slowly burning, I can feel my world unravel
Hemisphere upon hemisphere lie beneath my soul, soul
My enemies kept it turning, but now they pound the gavel
And judging me accordingly, I know, I know
CHORUS
Hey! {x3}
Oh
Burning slowly candle, handle careless they did
Merrily down 3 heartbreak boulevards
Like fashion statements, they lie "U be lookin' so good 2night, kid"
I do my best 2 party, it's just that everybody keeps tryin' 2 break my
heart
(CHORUS)
Except 4 me (Except 4 me)
I just want a chance 2 play
(Just wanna be free)
Slowly candle burns, where'd they learn hypnosis?
How'd they keep me under 4 so long?
Break the bread I earn, just keep me far from closest
I need their kind 2 illustrate what's wrong - what's wrong?
Well, I'll tell U they just keep tryin' 2 break my heart (CHORUS)
They just keep tryin' 2 break my heart, ow!
(Everybody) {x2}
CHORUS
But I can't let U break my heart
(Everybody keeps tryin' 2 break my heart)
Slave! (Everybody keeps tryin' 2 break my heart)
Slave! Slave! (Everybody keeps tryin' 2 break my heart)
Slave!

Your Last Line...It Does Not Rhyme

I've been accused of not giving.
When that is all I've ever done.
I've also been accused of not participating,
Although when I did...
None of that from the others would come.
From anyone!
Not even 'some'.

Now that I have chosen my time not to waste,
I've been told I am ungrateful...
And self centered,
Of late.
And my response to those who bait division...
Is that we all make decisions.
And I've made mine to break away from that madness.

'Your last line...
It does not rhyme.'

And I ain't trying to find reason for it, either.
When I eat cookies and leave not a crumb...
That means I'm done!

'Cool.
That line does rhyme.'

It makes me happy you have set your priorities.
So have I.

Talkin' To Me

Funny how it's hard to find the words sometimes you know
Wishin we could read minds
Don't wanna let our feelings show
So even if you say you don't understand
I'm willing to give as much time as I can
Every time our eyes meet

Every time our eyes meet
Be talkin talkin talkin talkin to me (talkin to me)
Talkin talkin talkin talkin to me
Just ain't no need for words to speak (oh)
Cause every time
Be talkin talkin talkin to me
Be talkin talkin talkin to me (Talkin to me)

Your always actin so composed and cool
Never got to many words for me (To many words)
You always turn your head and make sure I see (Just to make sure)
Baby ain't nothin' wrong with the love
That you and I dream of
So sweet
Your actions say more than your lips can speak
My friends say that they just can't see (They just can't see)
How a love unspoken can be so deep (Can be so deep)
And every time that you look my way
I see
What your heart wants to say to me

Every time our eyes meet (oh yeah)
Be talkin talkin talkin talkin to me (Talkin to me)
Talkin talkin talkin talkin to me
Just ain't no need for words to speak (Ain't no need for words)
Cause every time
Be talkin talkin talkin to me (no no no no no)

Accused Of Love

You speak to me in natural harmony
Like we both grew up with nothin
And I cant believe my own memory
But it one day could be coming
And I dont even know the wrong Ive done
And I dont even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever will stand accused of love
Watched the sun go down behind london town
I was burnt, stood up in mayfair
I caught a train, black car through the rain
From the trust that hung betrayed there
And I dont even know the wrong Ive done
And I dont even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever will stand accused of love
Well, the attorney grins, the witness is drug in
With his face half hid in shadow
Sworn to God and state the truth arrives too late
And defense goes out the window
And we dont even know the wrong weve done
And we dont even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever will stand accused of love
Will stand accused of love
Will stand accused of love

Games People Play

(Joe South)
Oh the games people play now
Every night and every day now
Never meaning what they say now
Never saying what they mean
Oh they whine away the hours
In their ivory towers
Til they're covered up with flowers
In the back of a black limousine
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da dee
I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
Oh they make one another cry
Break their hearts and they say good-bye
Cross their heart and they hope to die
That the other was to blame
Neither one will ever give in
So they gaze at an eight by ten
Thinkin' 'bout the way it might have been
And it's a dirty rotten shame
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da dee
I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
Oh they teach how to meditate
Read your horoscope and teach you faith
The furthermore the hell with hate
Come on and get on board
Look around and tell me what you see
What's a-happenin' to you and to me
God grant me the serenity
To just remember who I am
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da dee
I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play

She Don't Love You

She don't love you like i love you
Cause if she did she wouldn't break your heart
She don't love you like i love you
She's tryin' to tear us apart
Fairly well i know you're leavin'
For the new love that you found
The pretty girl that you've been dating
Oh i've got a feeling she's gonna put you down
Cause she don't love you like i love you
Cause if she did she wouldn't break your heart
She don't love you like i love you
She's tryin' to tear us apart
She uses all the great quotations
She says all the things i wish i could say
But she's had so many rehearsals
Oh, to her it's just a lover's play
But wait when the final act is over
And you're left standin' all alone
When she takes her bow and makes her exit
Oh, well i'll be there to take you home
She don't love you like i love you
Cause if she did she wouldn't break your heart
She don't love you like i love you
She's tryin' to tear us apart

Who is Responsible?

Who are responsible for corruption:
The people or the Government?
Both but the latter is the prime accused.
Who are responsible for adultery:
The cuckold or the spouse?
Both but the former is prime accused.

At Least I'm Talkin' to You vs.3 and chorus 2

Now, I feel stupid; I don't know why,
Probably because I messed up. (Big time.)
I wasn't thinkin' right, but now, I'm fine.
So I'm gonna go fix things and get me a 7up.
(chorus 2)
Everyone is so easy to talk to these days.
Maybe because I'm not shy.
And, baby, with you, I laugh so hard,
I just cry.
Well, let me tell you somethin' else,
and honey, it's true.
I'm talkin' to people now, but
not as much as I'm talkin' to you.
So, at least I'm talkin' to you.
Yeah, at least I'm-talkin'-to you-!

You Got The Wrong Man

Your eyes say that you've been hurt before
And you can't take the heartache anymore
You think I'll do what he's done to you
Break your trust and be untrue
But baby this is me you're talkin' to
You got the wrong man, it's not me
A case of mistaken identity
I didn't break your heart you see
What can I do to make you understand
You got the wrong man
I know you think that love will never last
And you see your future like the past
You don't want to make the same mistake
You think that I'm one more to make
But baby, I'm not him for goodness sake
You got the wrong man, it's not me
A case of mistaken identity
I didn't break your heart you see
What can I do to make you understand
You got the wrong man
You think I'll do what he's done to you
Break your trust and be untrue
But baby this is me you're talkin' to
You got the wrong man, it's not me
A case of mistaken identity
I didn't break your heart you see
What can I do to make you understand
You got the wrong man

Only My Heart Talkin

Anybodys dream can fall apart
Anybodys mask can break
Couldnt tell you how I wanted
You
Enough to make you want to stay
I never said the words out loud
I guess I couldnt get em straight
Baby, give me one more chance
Before you walk away
Its only, only, only, only my heart
Talkin
Yeah, its only, only, only, only my
Heart talkin
Sayin things I never thought id
Say
Cant you hear me knocking
Tried to fool you but it wouldnt
Play
Cuz my heart its talkin, its talkin
Baby, its talkin
Talkin to you
Everytime I take it to the edge
Everytime Im so afraid
Dont you know I cry my eyes
Out, babe
Everytime you look away
Oh, I almost dropped a tear
But I caught it just in time
Id say those things you want to
Hear
If youd help me, help me, help
Me try
Its only, only, only, only my heart
Talkin
Yeah, its only, only, only, only my
Heart talkin
Sayin things I never thought id
Say
Cant you hear me knocking
Tried to fool you but it wouldnt

Cuz my heart its talkin, its talkin
Baby, its talkin

Well, I dont want to hide away
Hide away without you, baby
Dont you go and run away
Come and help me, baby
Just a little help, baby

No Longer Is That Scent Addicting

I've been profiled and monitored.
Suspected for steps I took.
And accused of those,
I lay too fast asleep to make.

Whipped nuts with minds burning up,
Are quickly crushing themselves...
From beliefs they keep unchanged.
Slipping grips on fed delusions.
And rapidly going insane!

I've been profiled and monitored.
Suspected for steps I took.
And accused of those,
I lay too fast asleep to make.

And criticized for living my life.
With judgements made that I was crazed.
But my eyes beheld the decadence and blight...
Those who invited,
While ostracizing the ones they opposed...
Who had been right.
To leave them emotionally abandoned.
While a rejoicing in ignorance...
Excited in the darkest of nights.

Now they fight each other to spite in self hatred!
With accusations made and placed...
Upon me and others of colored face.
And those who sympathize with a guarded pace.

I hear the ones seeking,
And wishing for me to come to their aid.
I hear the voices ask forgiveness.
But how can that be done?
I am not the 'One' who comes to save!
When I,
Like the others...
Have accepted we've been shunned.
The 'gift' the evildoers gave.

I've been profiled and monitored.
Suspected for steps I took.
And accused of those,
I lay too fast asleep to make.

And now I find I am too loyal,
To break away from my own escape!
For a return to a burning...
Once inside me yearning.
But no longer is that scent addicting.

F*ck all the bitches who broke my heart again
Love all the women who made my head spin

Slick mo-fo, hes always tryin to take me
In this arena only you can make me...
Sex and violence, a love in a rage...
Im pacing like a beast locked in a cage
Im a-comin Im a-comin Im a-comin of age
But I know you want me, right
I can make the sun go down
And I say give the power to the people
Solo
I am the sound and I am the light
You are the power that gives me the right
Together we own the night
Good evening people, welcome to my party
Bring on the night, we can get it started
You want my blood on the stage, well baby youve got it
Yes we know we love this
Yes, we know we want this, right
