Hippie Dream
Take my advice
Dont listen to me
It aint paradise
But it used to be
There was a time
When the river was wide
And the water came running down
To the rising tide
But the wooden ships
Were just a hippie dream
Just a hippie dream.
Dont bat an eye
Dont waste a word
Dont mention nothin
That could go unheard
cause the tie-dye sails
Are the screamin sheets
And the dusty trail
Leads to blood in the streets
And the wooden ships
Are a hippie dream
Capsized in excess
If you know what I mean.
Just because its over for you
Dont mean its over for me
Its a victory for the heart
Every time the music starts
So please dont kill the machine
Dont kill the machine
Dont kill the machine.
Another flower child goes to seed
In an ether-filled room of meat-hooks
Its so ugly
So ugly.

World Machine
Some folks try
To multiply
From sunrise to sunset
Leave behind
More of their kind
So no one will forget
But that aint where Im coming from - today
Those easy girls dont turn me on - anyway
I wanna know where my pride has gone
The partys over
Caught in a dream
Inside this world machine
Teachers teach
And preachers preach
Of spiritual evolution
But this big I am
From uncle sham
Just adds to my confusion
Ive seen his face, Ive heard his song - before
But I dont care what time hes on - anymore
I must have been on the streets too long
The partys over
Caught in a dream
Inside this world machine
I find myself outside your door
Trying to make it like before
But you dont follow what I say
And I can tell by your smile
Youre no longer a child
That part of you was buried yesterday . . .
. . . who knows
Why they come and where they go
In this world machine?
Its the chosen fools
Who make the rules
That dont apply to me
With their fast-car games
And counter claims
Not my reality
And I dont know if I belong - today
I dont know why my friends have gone - away
I must have been on the streets too long
The partys over
Caught in a dream
Inside this world machine

Go Away
Well I think of you when I fantasize
The best I ever had
And I think of you when Im drivin
Myself completely mad
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Walkin on the footbridge
High above the clouds
Listenin to your yesterday
Didnt make a sound
Dazzled by your sweet lips
Touchin on me
Here comes trouble
Cant you see?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Well I think of you when I dramatize
The things we never did
And I think of you when Im flyin
Or when Im feelin just like a kid
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)

Why dont we go away?

Not You Again
Oh, no, not you again
Please dont tell me
Youre here to stay
See I dont want to hear
Go away, go away
I like piano
I like to tv
Yeah I like my style, ya know, and I like to dream
I like color of the rainbow, they like to please me
But I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you
Ive told you before and Ill tell you again, and again, and again
Cant you get it thru your head
Youre not my friend
And Ive tried to be nice but now Im not going to lie
So I suggest you leave before I make you cry, bye
I like to be sulky
I like being vile
I like to make you angry, I like it all the while
I like to know that youre hated, it makes me smile
But I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you
Oh, no, not you again
Oh, no, not you again
Why, why, why, why me?
Why, why, why, why me?
I like where Im living
I like my view
I like anyone who detests you as I do
So I must find everyone including me too
cause I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you
Im sorry
Oh, no, not you again
Oh, no, not you again
I dont like, I dont like, I dont like, I dont like, I dont like you
I dont like, I dont like, I dont like you
Oh, no, not you again
I dont like, I dont like, I dont like, I dont like, I dont like you
I dont like, I dont like, I dont like you
I dont have to give a reason
I dont have to give a reason, if I dont want to
Hello? I said hello.

Dont Wanna
Dont want to talk, dont want to walk
Dont want to do anything
Dont want to kick, dont want to scream
Dont want to sleep, dont want to dream
Just want to sit, just want to stare
Do what you want I dont care
Wait for the phone, wait for the ring
Dont want to do anything
Chorus
Dont want to work, dont want to play
Just sit around everyday
Dont want to dance, dont want to sing
Dont want to do anything
Dont want to laugh, dont want to cry
Just want to sit and wonder why
Its just too much without your touch
Dont want to do anything

Machine Gun Kelly
Ill tell you bout machine gun kelly
He rode along the outlaw trail
Machine gun kelly was a simple man
But the woman was as hard as hell
(chorus)
Watch out machine gun
Dont let her run you round
Dont let a woman put you six feet in the ground
Machine gun
Ill tell you bout katherine kelly
Tired of being such small time
Figured theyd kidnap a rich mans son
And make it in the world of crime
- chorus -
Youd better watch out machine gun kelly
Careful of what you do now
If you keep listening to your old lady
Aint no telling whatll happen to you now
Machine gun
The government boys they came for machine gun
And took the poor boy away
They stuck him in a hole in leavenworth prison
Where he lived until his dying day
Watch out machine gun
Dont let her put you down
Dont let a woman make you out to be a clown
Machine gun
Watch out machine gun

Rip It Up
The new law is moving in
Now you see them now you dont
Like a shadow in my diguise
Like a soft machine on ice
Who are you?
Im the man
I am the cure and disease
Who am i?
Im the need
I am the weakness that feeds
Ive got to rip it up
Ive got to tear it down
Ive got to break the word
Ive got to fight for you
Who am I to criticise
Im unsafe at any speed
we can change the world she said
Never changed it never tried
Im cold and hard
But I dont mind
Ive been everything I can be
Ive been sick
And Ive got he screams
These boys dont know when to push
Did you know that I dont run
Did you know that I dont hide
Did you know that I dont sleep
Did you know that I dont care
I am the soft machine
I am the word and the law
I am the new machine
I am your feelings and more
Come inside and play with me
Ill show you things to forget
No-one talks
And no-one leaves
No-one remembers the way
Ive got to fight the man
Ive got to fight the need
Ive got to fight the law
Ive got to fight the word

Remember Me
Written by christine mcvie.
All you have to do
Is look at me that way
You dont have to say
Whats going on in your heart
And deep in the night
When I think you wont drive me crazy
Im just hoping that maybe
Youre feeling the same way to
I want you and I need you
I dont know what else to say
(dont you) dont you think its time (dont you) dont you think its time (dont you)
Dont you think its time that you remember me
So Im begging you
Not to leave me up in the air
It just wouldnt be fair
Cause you know the way
I feel about you
It may not be love
Or an everlasting feeling
But you sending me reeling
With the very mention of your name
I want you and I need you
I dont know what else to say
(dont you) dont you think its time (dont you) dont you think its time (dont you)
Dont you think its time that you remember me
Remember me...

Dont Ya Say It
Things you said to me
Sentimentally
Are always on my mind.
Seems you haunted me
But you set me free
Long before you gave me time to escape.
The next time
Ill be on my way
cause its time, its true
Im turning my back on you.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you need me
You dont need me,
Dont even try.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you want me,
You dont mean it,
Dont say good-bye.
You threw love at me
Indispensably,
But you never could give it away.
And it seems to me
That youd never be,
Thats why Ill never stay with you.
You cant hold me down
cause its my life too,
So this time its true,
Im turning my back on you
.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you want me,
You dont mean it,
Dont even try.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you need me,
You dont mean it,
Dont say good-bye.

I Dont Think We Could Ever Be Friends
(jean-alain roussel / sting)
Its the end of our journey
What can I do?
Lonely together
When Im alone with you
Now that weve come so far
It seems like the end
We could be lovers
We could never be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
We can never talk
Like others seem to do
Lonely together
Making love to you
We dont get nothing
From the letters we send
We could be lovers
We could never be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
Plus a new relationship
You know you break my heart
What I feel for yous too strong
It has been from the start
Everytime I see your face
Its tearing me apart
What is need is love from you
Oh, but I cant?
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends

I dont think we could ever be friends

Porterville
Its been an awful long time since I been home,
But you wont catch me goin back down there alone.
Things they said when I was young are quite enough to get me hung.
I dont care! I dont care!
They came and took my dad away to serve some time,
But it was me that paid the debt he left behind.
Folks said I was full of sin, because I was the next of kin.
I dont care! I dont care!
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo!
I dont care! I dont care!
Folks were out one night to put me up a fence,
And you can guess that Ive been runnin ever since.
Aint no one thats bout to help, and Ill keep on, I tell myself.
I dont care! I dont care!
I dont care! I dont care!
I dont care! I dont care!
Aint no one thats bout to help,
And Ill keep on, I tell myself.
I dont care! I dont care!
I dont care! I dont care!

If It Dont Take Two
It takes two to tango
And two lips to seal a kiss
But a flame and a candle
Wont burn on a night like this
If it dont take two
It takes two to go one way
And two winds to be strong enough
But you cant sail on a still day
Like two ships on a sea of love
If it dont take two
Noah knew what he had to do
Ooh oh yeah
He sent us out in the world walkin two by two
Oh...
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
And if Im not with you
No it aint worth goin through
If it dont take two
It takes two hearts with one beat
And it takes two to say I do
But the champagne wont taste sweet
And the dream just wont come true
If it dont take two
Noah knew what he had to do, oh yeah
He sent us out in the world walkin two by two, me and you
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
And if Im not with you
No it aint worth goin through
If it dont take two
He sent us out in the world walkin two by two
Me and you
Baby...
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
And if Im not with you
No it aint worth goin through

Waste
Dont want to be an actor pretending on the stage
Dont want to be a writer with my thoughts out on the page
Dont want to be a painter cause everyone comes to look
Dont want to be anything where my lifes an open book
A dream its true
But Id see it through
If I could be
Wasting my time with you
Dont want to be a farmer working in the sun
Dont want to be an outlaw always on the run
Dont want to be a climber reaching for the top
Dont want to be anything where I dont know when to stop
A dream its true
But Id see it through
If I could be
Wasting my time with you
So if Im inside your head
Dont believe what you might have read
Youll see what I might have said
To hear it
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
So if Im inside your head
Dont believe what you might have read
Youll see what I might have said
To hear it
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me

whe you express your mind
youre so smart and kind

when im next to you all i can say is i feel fine

Dont, dont, thats what you say
Each time that I hold you this way,
When I feel like this and I want to hold you,
Baby, dont say dont.
Dont, dont leave my embrace
For here in my arms is your place
When the night grows cold and I want to hold you,
Baby, dont say dont.
If you think that this is just a game

If you think that I dont mean

This you can believe

Saviour Machine
President joe once had a dream
The world held his hand, gave their pledge
So he told them his scheme for a saviour machine
They called it the prayer, its answer was law
Its logic stopped war, gave them food
How they adored till it cried in its boredom
please dont believe in me, please disagree with me
Life is too easy, a plague seems quite feasible now
Or maybe a war, or I may kill you all
Dont let me stay, dont let me stay
My logic says burn so send me away
Your minds are too green, I despise all Ive seen
You cant stake your lives on a saviour machine
I need you flying, and Ill show that dying
Is living beyond reason, sacred dimension of time
I perceive every sign, I can steal every mind
Dont let me stay, dont let me stay
My logic says burn so send me away
Your minds are too green, I despise all Ive seen
You cant stake your lives on a saviour machine
