Parker Lewis Can't Lose (But I'm Going To Give It My Best Shot)
you laughed at my affections while I passed by your direction
I should have known from your walk
it was the end of you
its not that I dont respect your opinion
your quick with lips just rip me apart
sometimes like this Ive got a big mouth and maybe you can handle shutting it up
a simple contradiction could shake my whole foundation
Im taking back every step towards you
still failing at everything I do
in the meantime just talking to my shoes
converse with my Converse
at least they hear a word I say
and scrutinize it just as far as they can tell what Im getting at
youve twisted my tongue around my neck for the last time
but parker lewis cant lose
Ill spend my life trying to figure this all out but this is the last song about you
the last song I waste on you

Squeeze Me In
More info about this song in the song database
Honey, I know you got a good job
Youre out there making all that dough
They keep you late working that overtime
And I dont ever see you no more
I guess youre not checking your message machine
Seems like youre never in
But Ive got a hunch if we can just do lunch
I could get your attention again
Bridge:
Whoever said its a mans world
Dont know what hes talking about
Youve got me working around the clock
Honey, trying to figure you out
I know time is money
But theres more to life honey
Than how much you can spend
Youve got to make a little time for the good times
Honey, can you squeeze me in?
Chorus:
Whoever said its a mans world
Dont know what hes talking about
Youve got me working around the clock
Honey, trying to figure you out
I know time is money
But theres more to life, honey
Than how much you can spend
Youve got to make a little time for the good times
Honey, can you squeeze me in?
Ive got it circled in red on the calendar, baby
You told me that tonights the night
Ive got the champagne chilled
Ive got a gourmet meal, soft music and candlelight
I try to get you on the phone I get stuck on hold
I guess you keep getting sidetracked
Ive been faxing you love notes all day long
But you dont ever fax me back
Repeat bridge repeat chorus

What Its Like To Be Me
What its like to be me
Do you know what its like
Come on, come on
Baby, tell me, am I like the kind of girl
That you wanna take home,
Want to make me your own
Do you even know what I like
Just what Im giving for, what I adore
Baby, take the time to realize,
Im not the kind to sacrifice the way I am
So if you wanna be my man
Baby, walk a mile in my shoes
Do me right or Im through
Cant you see that if you wanna stay around
Im telling you, you got to figure me out
Boy, take your time or youll lose
This is my game, my rules
And I can see, obviously,
Baby, you dont know what its like to be me
Do you know what its like,
Do you know what its like.
Dont you get it twisted boy
I want you to
You got my heart to win before I let you in
And that deceives you baby
Im not the average lady
I need someone to love
Baby, take the time to realize,
Im not the kind to sacrifice the way I am
So if you wanna be my man
Baby, walk a mile in my shoes
Do me right or Im through
Cant you see that if you wanna stay around
Im telling you, you got to figure me out
Boy, take your time or youll lose
This is my game, my rules (you gotta play by my rules)
And I can see, obviously,
Baby, you dont know what its like to be me
Baby, you got to know me
Then you can show me
That your love for me is true
And Ill give you everything that a girl could give
Dont you want to be my man
Walk a mile in my shoes
Do me right or Im through
Cant you see that if you wanna stay around
Im telling you, you got to figure me out
Ttake your time or youll lose
This is my game, my rules
And I can see, obviously,
Baby, you dont know what its like to be me
(breakdown)
Walk a mile in my shoes
Do me right or Im through
Cant you see that if you wanna stay around
Im telling you, you got to figure me out
Ttake your time or youll lose
This is my game, my rules
And I can see, obviously,
Baby, you dont know what its like to be me

Angel In Pink Converse
She flew right past me one day,
My eyes must have been blinded by her light,
For seconds later she was gone.
So she must have been an angel,
I fell in love with an angel in pink Converse.
Before I could stop and say ‘hello’,
She’d flown away,
And I could only remember the image of
The angel in pink Converse,
My angel in pink Converse.
If all angels were like she,
I would glad die to join them all,
But could they be more beautiful
Than the angel in pink Converse,
My angel in pink Converse.
Maybe, maybe,
Someday she’ll fly again my way,
And I would stop and talk for awhile,
To the angel in pink Converse,
My angel in pink Converse.
Perhaps they all wear Converse in Heaven?

Crutch
I dont want to be the crutch
One step away from down
I dont want to be the crutch
One step away from...
Man I feel like hell so come on over
Be a love machine and I could be your friend
Aint no shame feel strong for one another
Make a real true color come end to end then
God damn, change of pace
I think theres still a piece of my heart on your face
Its a shame to let it waste
How does it taste? how does it taste?
Break it down in pieces, make it simple
cause you know damn well that Im a simple man
All these things go changing like the weather
And they stay that way until the weather man says
One down, gone to waste
I think theres still a piece of that smile on your face
And I would like to see it erased
There aint no two ways about it
I dont want to be the crutch
One step away from down
I dont want to be the crutch
One step away from down, down, down
Bring it on then gone, use a lover
Like a cigarette the way that lovers do
One sweet song that starts a little slow and
Then goes on and on and makes you want to
Move around the room in circles
Everybody wants to be you
Try to find my place up on the map
Of all men youve been through
Dig a little deeper and youll realize
All Im building up youre tearing down
I dont want to be the crutch
One step away from down
I dont want to be the crutch
One step away from down, down, down, down, down
All you needed was a crutch
One step away from down
I could never be your crutch
I could break you down
I dont want to be the crutch
I dont want to be the crutch
I dont want to be the crutch
One step away from...

Sing To My Wing
Smile baby its over soon
The sun will come and erase the moon
Your stars are bright when you let them shine
If only you could see you're not of this kind
You left your heart out in the rain
And pretended not to feel its pain
If I could I would, take you under my wing
But your song is not a song I wish to sing
If I leave you here and walk away
Will you follow me some other day?
I'm taking my time to walk to the sun
But baby you're crawling when you think you can run
I can't go much slower even though it isn't a race
I found a windmill to fly you to my embrace
But you found another sorrowful song to sing
So this is the reason I cannot take you under my wing
You're frightened and hopeless, for this I can see
But I cannot grasp you when you crawl from me
Look at yourself hanging over the edge
Walking and wondering, playing around with the ledge
You're song is loosing its once wonderful song
And you sit here wondering why I scream you're wrong
All it takes is simple step, forward or back
So choose this fate, its a choice you do not lack
You can take one forward and erase the song you sing
Or choose a step back and run under my wing.

Baby Step Back
Now it looks to me like the same old place
In the sky it looks like rain
The same old town with the same old streets
The address has not change
You can find me there
With the door shut tight
And the one wish that remains
Baby step back baby step back
Either step up or step back
No you know I dont write no bad checks
I have no wish to repent
Ive seen a few
But whatever I do
I dont cause no accidents
Whiskey and wine help me pass the time
I dont leave no evidence
Baby step back baby step back
Either step up or step back
Baby step back baby step back
Either step up or step back
Still I dont kneel down
I was born to fight
So youd best leave me alone
Maybe Ill get much more than I need
Or much less than I should own
Last of all let me say it again
Either step up or step on
Baby step back baby step back
Either step up or step back
Baby step back baby step back
Either step up or step back
Baby walk back baby walk back
Either walk on or walk back
Baby step back ...

Singing A Love Song
Well, I may not get applause every night when I sing,
And I may not hear the cheers of a crowd.
And my voice cant always rise to make the mountains ring,
And at times I cant even sing out aloud.
But youve got me singing a love song,
Melody and rhyme;
It moves me every time.
Youve got me singing a love song,
And it keeps you on my mind, ooooh, on my mind.
Feelin fine all the time.
It keeps you on my mind.
Sometimes my voice is strained and the strings wont hold a tune.
My back is sore, and Im just too tired to try,
And I dont want to work or rest or think of you,
Or face the world or even close my eyes.
But youve got me singing a love song,
Melody and rhyme;
It moves me every time; I know that,
Youve got me singing a love song,
And it keeps you on my mind, ooooh, on my mind.
Feelin fine all the time.
It keeps you on my mind.
My broken dreams, they dont bother me,
And hard times in life I dont mind.
I think of things that Id rather see,
And you give me piece of mind.
Hard times will come and sometimes I wont wanna sing,
But Ill sing with all the love that I can find.
And Im happy there to hear me in the silence of my song.
Im gonna sing for you until the end of time.
cause youve got me singin a love song,
Melody and rhyme;
It moves me every time.
Youve got me singing a love song,
And it keeps you on my mind, ooooh, on my mind.
Feelin fine all the time.
It keeps you on my mind.
And it keeps you on my mind.
Youve got me singin a love song.
And it keeps you on my mind.
Youve got me singin a love song....

Have You Ever
To get up and walk away
Will be too easy
So stay and stand your ground
Just watch your mouth with me
On the back of every right
Theres a wrong looming
So here you and i
Should tread as soft
As these razorblades
For boots will it be
Have you ever tried
To step in my shoes?
Have you ever tried
To balance that beam?
And if you ever try
To fit in my shoes
Theyll never be quite
As soft as they seem
Unabashed honesty
Would be ideal
But a prophet did once say
That honestys our only word
So where do we go from here?
Abandon ship now
My problem is you made me melt
And I dont want
To be frozen anymore
Have you ever tried
To step in my shoes?
Have you ever tried
To balance that beam?
And if you ever try
To fit in my shoes
Theyll never be quite
As soft as they seem
Ooh ooh no oh no
Have you ever
Have you ever tried to
I have never
I have never tried to
Have you ever tried
To step in my shoes?
Have you ever tried
To balance that beam?
And if you ever try
To fit in my shoes
Theyll never be quite
As soft as they seem

Take Me Back Again
(coverdale/vandenberg)
Now I smoke a lot of cigarettes,
And Ive been drinking too much wine
Youve been patient and understanding,
I guess I went to far this time
I cut you with my drunken words,
So much sharper than a knife,
But, you turned the tables on me, baby,
Just by walking out of my life
Too late to say Im sorry,
It wont happen anymore
But, you dont believe a word I say
cause youve heard it all before
But, all the same,
Wont you take me back again
Dont say its over,
After all that weve been through
Take some time to think about it, baby,
While I sing my song to you
Your suitcase by the back door,
Packed with broken dreams,
When night time comes to call on me,
Ill know what loneliness means
But, all the same,
Wont you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
All Im asking is forgiveness,
Wont you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
All Im asking is forgiveness,
Wont you take me back again
But, baby, all the same
Wont you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
But, baby, all the same
Wont you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
Wont you take me back again
No, no, no, no, take me back again
Dont walk away from me baby
I beggin you please, uh
I beggin you please, uh
Take me back again
Take me back again

Blue Suede Shoes
(carl perkins)
Well, its one for the money, two for the show
Three to get ready and its go man go
You can do anything that you want to do
But uh-huh honey, lay off of my shoes
And dont you step on my shoes
Dont you step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh honey stay off of my shoes
And dont you step on my blue suede shoes
You can burn my house, steal my car
And drink my liquor out of my fruit jar
You can do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh honey stay off of my shoes
And dont you step on my shoes
Dont step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh honey stay off of my shoes
And dont you step on my blue suede shoes
Well, its down on beale street late one night
A woman got mad and started a fight
Split my chin and bust my nose
Tore out the back of my best suit of clothes
I said, knock me down, step in my face
Slander my name all over the place
Do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh honey stay off of my shoes
And dont you step on my shoes
Dont step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh honey stay off of my shoes
And dont you step on my blue suede shoes

Boss D. J.
Theres a steel train comin through I would take it if I could
And I would not lie to you because sunday mornin soon will come
When things will be much easier to say
Upon the microphone like a boss dj
But I wont walk up upon the sea like it was dry land
Boss dj aint nothin but a man
No trouble, no fuss, I know why..
Its so nice, I wanna hear the same song twice,
Its so nice dont wanna hear the same song twice
Rumors are spreading all over my town
But its just stones and sticks,
Upon the microphone is where I go to get my fix
Just let the lovin take a hold cuz it will if you let it
Im funky not a junkie but I know where to get it
No trouble no fuss I know why
Its so nice I wanna hear the same song twice
Its so nice I wanna hear the same song twice
Oooee girl
Oooee girl
Oooee girl
Ooee girl and there really aint no time to waste
Really aint no time to hate
Aint got no time to waste, time to hate
Really aint no time to make the time go away
So mister dj dont stop the music,
I wanna know,
Are you feelin the same way too?
I wanna rock it wih you-ou girl,
You-ou girl, you-ou girl, oooooo
Mmmmmhmmmhhmmm
Dont stop

Its so nice I wanna hear the same song twice
Nowadays all the songs on the radio,
They all,

Salvation Road
Sung by everybody
Hear me brothers, hear me sisters,
Citizens and comrades hear my song.
The old lifes dead the orders changing
Its time for all of us to move along.
Got no time to live a life
With old worn-out traditions
Swallowed my pride,
Changed my ways,
And found a new religion.
There you go.
Sick and tired of living on loans,
Driving around in a car that I dont own.
Tired of looking at wealthy faces
Flying off to far out places.
The workers of the world
Shall give the profits to the people.
Class will disappear
And we will live our lives as equals.
There you go.
And well all walk along
And well all sing a song
And well all mark time as we go.
Yes, well all walk along
And well all sing a song
As we walk down salvation road.
Goodbye youth, goodbye dreams,
The good times and the friends I used to know.
Goodbye freedom, hello fear,
A brave new world has suddenly appeared.
Got to be hard,
Dont look back
And no more reminiscing.
Times are rough,
Weve got to be tough,
And concentrate on living.
There you go.
And well all join hands,
And well all march along
And well all mark time as we go.
Yes, well all walk along,
And well sing a song,
As we walk down salvation road.
Well all walk along
And well all sing a song
And well all mark time as we go.
Yes, well all walk along
And well all sing a song
As we walk down salvation road.

Put Yourself In My Shoes
Your mind is made up you wont even try
You didnt even cry this time
You say that we could never see eye to eye
And one of us just must be blind
We have our differences
Were still the same
See what we want to see
But you take a second look
And maybe things wouldnt seem the same
If you could see what you mean to me
Put yourself in my shoes
Walk a mile for me
Ill put myself in your shoes
Maybe then wed see
That if you put yourself in my shoes
Youd have some sympathy
And if I could only put myself in your shoes
Id walk right back to me
Youre gonna keep walkin and youre gonna pass me by
You say you dont even care
But I could always recognize a real good-bye
And I know your hearts not there
Weve had our differences
Were still the same
Hear what we want to hear
Now Im head over heels in the lost and found
Its a cryin shame
I thought we made the perfect pair
Put yourself in my shoes
Walk a while walk that mile for me
Ill put myself in your shoes
Maybe then wed see
That if you put yourself in my shoes
Youd have some sympathy
And if I could only put myself in your shoes
Id walk right back to me
Id walk right back to me
Id walk right back to me

You Gotta Stop

Baby youve been lying to me now Im onto you
Its the same old song but it doesnt ring true
Thats right youre wrong again
Time to change and put you on your own again
Youve had your way too long
Time for me to be moving on
You gotta stop, youre wrong again
Stop ... that song again
Youve been steppin out wild and fancy free
Now youve had your fun and youre running back to me
It just cant be if theres no harmony
Then stop!
Thats all lets break it up
Youve had me fooled now Im wakin up
I see right through your lies
You made me open my eyes
You gotta stop, youre wrong again
Stop ... that song again
Its too late now Ive made up my mind
Being here with you is just a waste of time
Nothing to say so Ill be on my way
Stop!
You gotta stop, youre wrong again
Stop ... that song again
Its too late now Ive made up my mind
Being here with you is just a waste of time
It just cant be if theres no harmony
Then stop! stop! youre wrong again
Stop that song again
Stop! youre wrong again
You gotta stop that song again

Converse In Silence
when ego declines
your heart's insistence;
love,
converse in silence..
when words cease to exist
and mind repudiates;
love,
converse in silence..
when each word you say
is always held against;
love,
converse in silence..
asked to quit the game
far worse, you couldn't complain;
love's
too terse with silence!
A Song of Wrong [ You Laughed and Laughed and Laughed ]
In your eyes
My song is one of wrong
Intruding into your heart
And you laughed and
Laughed and laughed.
.
In your heart, you knew
I could be there,
Cause you brought me here.
And you laughed and
Laughed and laughed.
.
In your soul,
You knew I want you
In my home.
'cause you brought me hope.
And you laughed and
Laughed and laughed.
.
You laughed at my wrong
You laughed at my right.
You laughed over
Everything I do.
.
And now, my love I give to you
But you shut your eyes and
Laughed and laughed
And laughed.
.
You laughed at my walk
You laughed at my song.
.
You walked your walk
Into my life of wrong
Knowing all along
You could change me in all.
.
But you shot your heart
To my love
And you walked away from
My heart, and you laughed
And laughed and laughed.

I Am The Resurrection
Down down, you bring me down
I hear you knocking at my door and I cant sleep at night
Your face, it has no place
No room for you inside my house I need to be alone
Dont waste your words I dont need anything from you
I dont care where youve been or what you plan to do
Turn turn, I wish youd learn
Theres a time and place for everything Ive got to get it through
Cut loose, youre no use
I couldnt stand another second in your company
Dont waste your words I dont need anything from you
I dont care where youve been or what you plan to do
Stone me, why cant you see
Youre a no-one nowhere washed up baby whod look better dead
Your tongue is far too long
I dont like the way it sucks and slurps upon my every word
Dont waste your words I dont need anything from you
I dont care where youve been or what you plan to do
I am the resurrection and I am the light
I couldnt ever bring myself to hate you as Id like
I am the resurrection and I am the light
I couldnt ever bring myself to hate you as Id like

You Laughed and Laughed and Laughed
I told you I was in love,
But you laughed and
Laughed and laughed.
.
I gave you my love,
But you did not give me yours,
Instead you kept mine, and
Gave yours to another.
.
You laughed at my song,
You laughed at my walk,
Then I danced my magic dance
to the rhythm of the talking
drums pleading.
.
But you shot your eyes, and laughed
And laughed and laughed.
