Bow Down
Mother, father, I think that I would rather
Stay at home with you for another year
That buildings so tall and it makes me feel so small
That I might get lost and simply disappear
Evil smiles wont change my mind
Im worried and Im not the worrying kind
Whys that man rubbing his hands
Looking at me writing down his plans?
Today I have been moulding plasticine
And I made a little man who looked just like me
His limbs were so weak and he couldnt move hiw mouth to speak
And I could bend him into any shape I wanted him to be
Evil smiles wont change my mind
Im worried and Im not the worrying kind
Whys that man rubbing his hands
Looking at me writing down his plans?
Those kids with the blazers on
They went in with names on their elbows
Came home with medals on
Spit it out thats the way the story goes
A flying start for the briefcase crew
Oh, you didnt have to teach me like you did
But you did
And you didnt have to beat me like you did
But you did
But you did
You did
You did

Maybe Your Baby
Im feelin down and some kind of lonely,
Cause my baby done left me here,
Hearts blazing like a five alarm fire
And I dont even give a care
I feel like the world is turnin on me,
My dreams turnin to ashes right in front of my face,
And Im gettin kind of worried,
And I feel so out of place,
Maybe your baby done made some other plans,
Maybe your baby done made some other plans.
(background) . . I feel like cryin, yeh, yeh
Maybe baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
In the mornin when Ive got heartache,
I cant call up the doctor for help,
Cause the only person that could ever do me any good,
Is steppin out with my best friend.
I feel like Im slippin deeper,
Slippin deeper into myself,
And I cant take it,
This stuff is scarin me to death,
Maybe your baby done made some other plans,
Kinda makin me worried,
Maybe your baby done made some other plans,
Little sally walker, sittin in a saucer,
Checkin out the guys that are passing by,
(background)...by, by, by, by...
Maybe your baby done made some other plans
Maybe your baby done made some other plans,
Not includin future plans,
Maybe your baby done made some other plans,
Maybe my baby done made some other plans,
Maybe my baby done made another plan
With another man. your baby, your baby, stupid baby, your baby,
That you put so trust so much trust in your baby,
Maybe your baby done made some other plans.

I Wont Be Home No More

Capo on 1st fret.
[d] well, youre just in time to be too late
I tried to but I couldnt wait
And [a] now I ve got another date
So I wont be home no [d] more
Youre just in time to miss the boat
So dont take off your hat and coat
[a] be on your way, thats all she wrote
cause I wont be home no [d] more.
1st bridge
I [g] stood around a month or two
And waited for your call
Now [d] I m too busy pitchin woo
So come around next [a] fall
I [d] scratched your name right off my slate
And hung a sign on my front gate
Youre [a] just in time to be too late
And I wont be home no [d] more.
Well, youre just in time to turn around
And drive your buggy back to town
You looked me up I turned you down
And I wont be home no more
Youre just in time to change your tune
Go tell your troubles to the moon
And call around next may or june
cause I wont be home no more.
2nd bridge
I used to be the patient kind
Believed each alibi
But thats all done, I ve changed my mind
I ve got new fish to fry
Well, youre just in time to celebrate
The things you didnt calculate
Youre just in time to be too late
And I wont be home no more.

What You Got
The way your body keeps moving
Is something that makes me weak
Lets start our own little secrets
For just you and me to keep
Too late to come off shy now
You've already gone this far
So baby make your move, take charge
Show me what you got for me
Oh no
(Girl)
Is that your hands, (your hands), rubbing on me
Oh no
(Girl)
Oh no
(Girl)
Is that your hands, (your hands), ooh on me
Oh no

Is that your hands, (your hands), rubbing on me
If so

If that's your hands, (your hands), then tell me what you got for me

No Matter How I Change
it amazing how no matter how much you try to change
you seem to stay the same
you can dye your hair you can change your close
you can paint you nails change your skin
you can change your eyes with simple a lens
you can make yourself look like someone thay have never seen before
you can change you voice the way you speak
you can do all this in a few days if that
yet.
your mind the way you thank
thay way your mind works
that change can take so much longer
if you beleve
all men are evil and i will never love one
no mater how much you change how you look
your mind will steel thank
all men are evil and i will never love one
this go's to show
i can change everything about me and
i can walk past you and you would never know
but see me in a store
'is this movie any good'
'yes it one of my favorites reminds me of my father'
that will strike you as odd
'have we meet before'
'i don't believe so where did u go to school'
by this point you know it me but you wont say a thing
and i will smile and this will prove it
'max...'
no matter how i change
i will also be the same

Oh! Didnt I Say
Hollow
Faces staring through my window
Sometimes
I can play a boy you might know
Station
Standing cold and old Im insane
Gender
Is uncertain just like my name
The lemon kid is my friend
But even he dont know me well
Oh thats too bad
The waiter is an old man
Who looks at me so sly and strange
Whats on his mind
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you
Queenie
From a doorway says you got time?
Panic
Not tonight if you dont mind
Oh no
My fear of streets I cover
Today
My room is home for hours
You can stay if you know your lines
But please take care
Ill suck your mind dry
Youll never guess
And you can never know me
Ill change if I begin to feel
Whats your name
Zero hero says Im no-one
He could be right but whos to know
Man from the sky
Oh well Im growing tired of this place
I think its time to change my face
You cant even try
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you

He Wasnt Man Enough
Darkchild oh yeah
Toni braxton oh
Ha ha uh huh
Yeah uh uh
Darkchild yeah
Who do you think I am
Dont you know that he was my man
But I chose to let him go
So why do you act like I still care about him
Looking at me like Im hurt
When Im the one who said I didnt want it to work
Dont you forget I had him first
Whatcha thinking
Stop blaming me
He wasnt man enough for me
If you dont know now heres your chance
Ive already had your man
Do you wonder just where hes been yeah
And Id be worried about him
Now its time you know the truth
I think hes just the man for you
What are you thinking
Do you know about us back then
Do you know I dumpedyour husband
Girlfriend
Im not thinking bout him
But you married him
Do you know I made him leave
Do you know he begged to stay with me
He wasnt man enough for me
Didnt he tell you the truth
If not then why dont you ask him
And maybe you could be more into him
Instead of worrying bout me
And hopefully you wont find
All of the reasons why his love didnt count
And why we couldnt work it out
Whatcha thinking
Stop blaming me
He wasnt man enough for me
If you dont know now heres your chance
Ive already had your man
Do you wonder just where hes been yeah
And Id be worried about him
Now its time you know the truth
I think hes just the man for you
What are you thinking
Do you know about us back then
Do you know I dumpedyour husband
Girlfriend
Im not thinking bout him
But you married him
Do you know I made him leave
Do you know he begged to stay with me
He wasnt man enough for me
What are you thinking
Do you know about us back then
Do you know I dumpedyour husband
Girlfriend
Im not thinking bout him
But you married him
Do you know I made him leave
Do you know he begged to stay with me
He wasnt man enough for me
So many reasons why our love is through
What makes you think hell be good to you
It makes no sense
cause he will never change
Girl you better recognize the game
What are you thinking
Do you know about us back then
Do you know I dumpedyour husband
Girlfriend
Im not thinking bout him
But you married him
Do you know I made him leave
Do you know he begged to stay with me
He wasnt man enough for me

My Old Man
When I was a young boy in brooklyn
Going to public school
During recess in the concrete playground
They lined us up by twos
In alphabetical order, reagan, reed and russo
I still remember the names
And stickball and stoopball were the only games
That we played
And I wanted to be like my old man
I, I wanted to grow up just like my old man
I wanted to be like my old man
I wanted to dress like, I wanted to be just like
I wanted to act like my old man
I wanted to be like, I wanted to act like
I wanted to be just like my old man
And then like everyone else I started to grow
And I didnt want to be like my father anymore
I was sick of his bullying
And having to hide under a desk on the floor
And when he beat my mother
It made me so mad I could choke
And I didnt want to be like my old man
I, I didnt even want to look like my old man
I didnt even want to seem like my old man
A son watches his father, being cruel to his mother
And makes a vow to return only when
He is so much richer, in every way so much bigger that -
- the old man will never hit anyone again
Like my old man (just like my old man)
Like my old man
Like my old man (just like my old man)
Like my old man
And can you believe what he said to me
He said, lou, act like a man (walk like a man)
Why dont you act just like a man
Act like your daddy, act like a man (just like my old man)
Oh, why dont you act just like a man
Like your old man (walk like a man)
(just like my old man)
(just like my old man)

1921
Lover:
Ive got a feeling twenty one
Is going to be a good year.
Especially if you and me
See it in together.
Father:
So you think 21 is going to be a good year.
It could be for me and her,
But you and her-no never!
I had no reason to be over optimistic,
But somehow when you smiled
I could brave bad weather
Mother:
What about the boy?
What about the boy?
What about the boy?
He saw it all!
Mother and father:
You didnt hear it
You didnt see it.
You wont say nothing to no one
Ever in your life.
You never heard it
Oh how absurd it
All seems without any proof.
You didnt hear it
You didnt see it
You never heard it not a word of it.
You wont say nothing to no one
Never tell a soul
What you know is the truth.

Far Behind
Now maybe I didnt mean to treat you bad
But I did it anyway
And not maybe
Some would say your life was sad
But you lived it anyway
And now maybe
Your friends they stand beside they watch you crumble
As you falter to the ground
And now maybe
Your friends they stand beside as you were flying
Oh you were flying oh so high
But then some day people look at you for what they call their own
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hear you calling home
But then some day we could take our time
To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us
But you left me far behind
Now maybe I didnt mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say youre left with what you had
But you couldnt share the pain
No, no, no
Couldnt share the pain they watch you suffer
Now maybe I could have made my own mistakes
But I live with what Ive known
Yes maybe we might share in something great
But wont you look at where weve grown
Wont you look at where weve gone
But then someday comes tomorrow holds a sense of what I fear for you in my mind
As you trip the final line
And that cold day when you lost control
Shame you left my life
So soon you should have told me
But you left me far behind
Now maybe I didnt meant to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say youre left with what you had
But you couldnt share the pain
No, no, no
Now maybe I didnt mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
No maybe some would say youre left with what you had
But you couldnt share the pain
I said times have changed your friends
They come and watch you crumble to the ground
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hold you down
Hold you down
Maybe brother maybe love I didnt mean to treat you bad
But you left me far behind
Left me far behind
Left me far behind

Mother; it was all a white lie
How do I look? ’ says mother just before she goes out
I reply ‘wow amazing’ mother smiles
But if only she knew it was a white lie
I would hurt her deep inside
Mother says ‘which dress looks better’
I chose red, although I didn’t like neither
Mother reply’s ‘I’m glad you like it ‘, I reply ‘like it? I love it! ’ Yes I lied I genuinely disliked it!
Mother giggles but what she doesn’t realise it’s apart of my game just not as obvious as a riddle.
Mother is on a diet and works so hard to stick to it
Mother asks me ‘have I reduced weight a little bit? ’
I reply ‘a little bit? ’ you’ve lost so much that you’re starting to look like a stick!
Mother giggles and cuddles me; see this is why I lie because I make her feel so valuable and happy!
When mother was pregnant she looked big as ever! Mother asks’ ‘do I look big? ’ I reply look big? Never! Yes I lied to make her feel better!
I wanted her to feel cool about herself just like the breeze in the Lebanese weather
Although she was awfully big, I made her feel light as a feather!
Father is home late; mother is worried, she asks me if I think he’s ok
I reply ‘of course he is’ she smiles and gives me a kiss
Although I was also afraid and wanted to ask mother the same
I kept her calm by putting on a brave face
Mother says ‘I have a surprise for you in the boot’
I opened it and bless mother; she had bought me new shoes,
Mother says ‘like the shoes? ’ I reply ‘of course I do’ but if only she knew,
I would hurt her in the count of two!

La Gonave
La gonave I see your mist
La gonave well I know youre kissed
By the same sea of trouble
That stretches back home
La gonave
Youve got troubles of your own
Yes I got troubles
Wont you come on and see
I got my needs just follow me
But they gonna ease by and by
If you tell all the people
That its no lie
You only came for forty eight hours
Didnt realise how useless I was
Came to you for the nation sells lies
Lord knows but I still feel helpless
La gonave I dont feel good
La gonave do you think I should
Turn my back and walk away
La gonave tell me what to say
If Id been at home
Would you telephone me
Im situated across the sea
But its a small world from any point
Of view
Spare a thought
This could have been you
You shook my senses
Took my time
Froze my feeling
Broke my mind
La gonave youve played your part
La gonave you sure got heart
Didnt leave my heart in san francisco
Didnt want to stay in omaha
Never got fooled by new york city
But I lost my heart to la gonave
Didnt leave my heart in san francisco
Didnt want to stay in omaha
Never got fooled by new york city
But I lost my heart to la gonave
Didnt leave my heart in san francisco
Didnt want to stay in omaha
Never got fooled by new york city
But I lost my heart to la gonave

Needless To Worry
I’ve almost spent my days
In worrying on things along my way.
I’m worried about my husband
What if he finds someone?
I’m worried about my daughter
Can she pursue her career?
I’m worried about my eldest son
What if he encounters a troublesome?
I’m worried about my youngest
Can he cope with his classmates?
I’m worried about money.
I’m so concerned about the health of the family.
I think of the weather and calamity.
Too much to say I’m afraid of the disaster.
This is really true all of these I’ve encountered.
Not now that I’ve been closer to Jesus.
I stopped worrying on any issues.
No matter how dark the world is
With His guidance I can handle this.
I believe the Lord controls the affair
So I must not committed to be afraid.
The Lord is big enough for me
He’s the only one who knows what the future will be.
I will not be a prisoner of worry again!

Take Me Home

I had you in the palm of my hand
You could see that I didnt wanna stay
Knew I wanted lovin like a man
I could feel your hands perspiring
You could see my temperature rising

Take me home and we can dance all night
Shake me baby - makes me feel alright
Gimme some loving - till the broad day light
Take me home and we can dance all - dance all night
I could tell it was gettin kinda late
Couldnt wait to get you all alone
You could see that I didnt wanna wait
I cant wait for you to take me home
Come together perfect timing
This could all be so exciting

When I touch you set my hands on fire
But I just cant keep my eyes off you
Youre the one that fills me with desire
Ill do anything you want me to
Ill do anything you want me to
Dont think twice if the devils gonna take
You home tonight
You feel so fine and Ill soon be makin

I still believe in a perfume garden
You get me beatin something startin

One More Chance

Give me one more chance to make it up to you.
Give me one more chance to show what I can do.
Let me prove to you that my love is strong.
Wont you come back home, thats where you belong.
Oh baby, wont you give me one more chance?
Wont you give me one more chance?
Well, the sun wont shine and it refuse to rain,
And I bang my heard, but I feel no pain.
Then I tell myself that I could start anew,
But I know darn well it all depends on you.
Chorus
So if you hear this song, you might change your mind
And give a thought to me, I wont be hard to find,
And Ill promise you to do the best I can,
Change my evil ways and be your loving man.

So, give me one more chance to make it up to you.

A Little Heavens Rubbing Off On Me
I used to like
Making love then
Getting up
And never having to explain
Ive always been free
I never could see me
Dragin no ball and chain
I like running around
And being tied down
Never was my cup of tea
But since Ive been holding an angel
A little heavens rubbing off on me
And Im beginning to like just sittin and holding hands
Looking into her eyes Im thinking about future plans
And then I get the feeling that the life that Id been leading aint all its cracked
Up to be
Since Ive been holding an angel
A little heavens rubbing off on me
I used like
To spend the night
Sittin on an old bar stool
Drinkin wine and killing time
With all over those other fools
But since you took my hand
I think I understand
It aint the way it outta be
Since Ive been holding an angel
A little heavens rubbing off on me
And Im beginning to like just sittin and holding hands
Looking into her eyes Im thinking about future plans
And then I get the feeling that the life that Id been leading aint all its cracked
Up to be
Since Ive been holding an angel
A little heavens rubbing off on me
Since Ive been holding an angel
A little heavens rubbing off on me

Blues In My Mind
Fred rose
I ought to hate you for these blues in my mind
What makes me love you, am I losing my mind?
I wonder where Im gonna wind up
I just cant make my crazy mind up
Too many kisses brought me too many tears
Tears that Ill carry with me all through the years
Im just the broken hearted kind
Worrying blues in my mind
Im going crazy with these blues in my mind
How can you just keep on confusing my mind?
Youve got a jealous air about you
Maybe Im better off without you
Still I cant make my heart believe that its true
Trouble with me is having trouble with you
Im just the broken hearted kind
Worrying blues in my mind

Time wont change you
Money wont change you
I havent got the faintest idea
Everything seems to be up in the air at this time
I need something you change your mind
Drugs wont change you
Religion wont change you
Science wont change you
Looks like I cant change you
I try to talk to you, to make things clear
But youre not even listening to me...
And it comes directly from my heart to you...
I need something to change your mind.

My evil is growing,
my heart wont be showing...
Yes! ! Evil awaits, they opened
Hells gate...Bringing sorrow to many,
with no care towards any! Let me tel u
the storie of how this evil began, like most
things it started with a other man...i was in love
and over come by passion, so much that i lost
my sence of compassion..All she wanted was a baby
and to start a family..i got scared and turned away to a
dark place in stead..she didnt want to wait and ended up
with that other man instead.....So this is a poem of how
evil always awaits....

Tomorrow Doesnt Matter Tonight
You already made up your mind
Just who youre looking for and what kind of love youll find
Holding out for a dream
But I can see youre lonely, living isnt only a fantasy
I dont fit into your plans, but you can reach for my hands
Chorus:
Tomorrow doesnt matter tonight, Im holding you and it feels so right
I know you didnt plan it this way, let yourself go if you want to stay
Its all right, cos tomorrow doesnt matter tonight
Really hate to see you confused
I want no promises, so what have you got to lose
When you look in my eyes
Dont think about tomorrow, this feeling isnt meant to be analyzed
Why should you be all alone til your heart finds a home
Tomorrow doesnt matter tonight, Im holding you and it feels so right
I know you didnt plan it this way, let yourself go if you want to stay
Its all right, cos tomorrow doesnt matter tonight
(guitar solo)
(tomorrow doesnt matter tonight, tomorrow) let yourself go!
(tomorrow doesnt matter tonight, tomorrow)
Tomorrow doesnt matter tonight, Im holding you and it feels so right
I know you didnt plan it this way, let yourself go if you want to stay
Its all right
Tomorrow doesnt matter at all, Im holding you and it feels so right
I know you didnt plan it this way, let yourself go if you want to stay
Its all right, tomorrow doesnt matter tonight
Tonight!

Sinking In
This is a drag that its too late now.
And I wanted to tell you that I was wrong.
I didnt realize I still hold on to you but I still do.
Was it that I turned everyone against you.
Was it that I didnt defend you.
Was it that I never had your back.
Was it that I was always trying to save you and you never wanted me to.
Or was it that I loved you.
You dont seem to see me sinking in do you.
Youre not content in your own head are you.
You just want to kick me once again dont you.
Dont you baby.
I did it again.
I dont stop paying.
You dont look so good to me my friend.
Is it because of me I really left this time.
Did you ever say goodbye.
Was it that I had a crush on your friend.
Was it that I left for another man.
Was it that I didnt know.
That you were in over your head and I didnt see what I had did i.
No, I didnt and uh.
(chorus)
Was it that everyone would just kiss my ass.
I couldnt see through it and you could.
And now look whats come of us here ten years later.
I jump from one to the other, youre still worrying your mother.
And I almost went under baby.
