"I'm Still Here" By Johnny Reznick
I am a question to the world, Not an answer to be heard. All a moment that's held in your arms. And what do you think you'd ever say? I won't listen anyway… You don't know me, And I’ll never be what you want me to be.
And what do you think you'd understand? I'm a boy, no, I'm a man.. You can take me and throw me away. And how can you learn what's never shown? Yeah, you stand here on your own. They don't know me 'cause I'm not here.
And I want a moment to be real, Wanna touch things I don't feel, Wanna hold on and feel I belong. And how can the world want me to change, They’re the ones that stay the same. The don’t know me, 'Cause I’m not here.
And you see the things they never see All you wanted, I could be Now you know me, and I'm not afraid And I wanna tell you who I am Can you help me be a man? They can't break me As long as I know who I am
And I want a moment to be real, Wanna touch things I don't feel, Wanna hold on and feel I belong. And how can the world want me to change, They’re the ones that stay the same. They can’t see me, But I’m still here.
They can’t tell me who to be, ‘Cause I’m not what they see. And the world is still sleepin’, While I keep on dreamin’ for me. And their words are just whispers And lies that I’ll never believe.
And I want a moment to be real, Wanna touch things I don't feel, Wanna hold on and feel I belong. And how can they say I never change They’re the ones that stay the same. I’m the one now, ‘Cause I’m still here.
I’m the one, ‘Cause I’m still here. I’m still here. I’m still here. I’m still here.

Nights In White Satin Moody Blues
Nights in white satin, Never reaching the end, Letters I've written, Never meaning to send.
Beauty I'd always missed With these eyes before, Just what the truth is I can't say anymore.
'Cause I love you, Yes, I love you, Oh, how, I love you.
Gazing at people, Some hand in hand, Just what I'm going thru They can understand.
Some try to tell me Thoughts they cannot defend, Just what you want to be You will be in the end,
And I love you, Yes, I love you, Oh, how, I love you. Oh, how, I love you.
Nights in white satin, Never reaching the end, Letters I've written, Never meaning to send.
Beauty I'd always missed With these eyes before, Just what the truth is I can't say anymore.
'Cause I love you, Yes, I love you, Oh, how, I love you. Oh, how, I love you.
'Cause I love you, Yes, I love you, Oh, how, I love you. Oh, how, I love you.

Welcome To The Black Parade My Chemical Romance
When I was a young boy, My father took me into the city To see a marching band.
He said, "Son when you grow up, would you be the saviour of the broken, the beaten and the damned?" He said "Will you defeat them, your demons, and all the non believers, the plans that they have made?" Because one day I'll leave you, A phantom to lead you in the summer, To join the black parade."
When I was a young boy, My father took me into the city To see a marching band. He said, "Son when you grow up, would you be the saviour of the broken, the beaten and the damned?"
Sometimes I get the feeling she's watching over me. And other times I feel like I should go. When through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets. And when you're gone we want you all to know.
We'll carry on, We'll carry on And though you're dead and gone believe me Your memory will carry on We'll carry on And in my heart I can't contain it The anthem won't explain it.
A woman sends you reeling from decimated dreams Your misery and hate will kill us all. So paint it black and take it back Lets shout it loud and clear Defiant to the end We hear the call
To carry on We'll carry on And though you're dead and gone believe me Your memory will carry on We'll carry on And though you're broken and defeated Your weary widow marches On and on we carry through the fears Ooh oh ohhhh
Disappointed faces of your peers Ooh oh ohhhh Take a look at me cause I could not care at all
Do or die You'll never make me Because the world, will never take my heart You can try, you'll never break me You want it all, you wanna play this part I won't explain or say I'm sorry I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scar Give a cheer, for all the broken Listen here, because it's who we are I'm just a man, I'm not a hero I'm just a boy, who's meant to sing this song I'm just a man, I'm not a hero I -- don't -- care
We'll carry on We'll carry on And though you're dead and gone believe me Your memory will carry on You'll carry on And though you're broken and defeated Your weary widow marches on We'll carry on We'll carry on We'll carry on We'll carry We'll carry on (Do or die, you'll never make me Because the world, will never take my heart You can try, you'll never break me You want it all, you wanna play this part)

I just love this song! Before He Cheats Carrie Underwood
Right now he's probably slow dancing with a bleach blonde tramp, and she's probably getting frisky... right now, he's probably buying her some fruity little drink cause she can't shoot whiskey...
Right now, he's probably up behind her with a pool-stick, showing her how to shoot a combo...
And he don't know...
That I dug my key into the side of his pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive, carved my name into his leather seats... I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights, slashed a hole in all 4 tires...
Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.
Right now, she's probably up singing some white-trash version of Shania karaoke.. Right now, she's probably saying "I'm drunk" and he's a thinking that he's gonna get lucky, Right now, he's probably dabbing on 3 dollars worth of that bathroom polo... And he don't know...
That I dug my key into the side of his pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive, carved my name into his leather seats, I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights, slashed a hole in all 4 tires...
Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.
I might've saved a little trouble for the next girl, Cause the next time that he cheats...
Oh, you know it won't be on me!
Ohh... not on me... Cause I dug my key into the side of his pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive, carved my name into his leather seats... I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights, slashed a hole in all 4 tires...
Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.
Ohh.. Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats...
Ohh... before he cheats...

You Don't Have To Yell Chris Rice
So-called reality Right there on my TV If that's how life's supposed to be, well Somebody's lyin' The camera's on and we can tell To keep your fame you have to yell 'Cause tensions build, and products sell, and We're all buyin' I hope we're smarter than this
Everybody take a breath Why are all your faces red We're missin' all the words you said You don't have to yell Draw your lines and choose your side ‘Cause many things are worth the fight But louder doesn't make you right You don't have to yell, oh You don't have to yell
I tuned in to hear the news I don't want your point of view If that's the best that you can do, then Something's missin' And experts on whatever side You plug your ears, you scream your lines You claim to have an open mind, but Nobody's listenin' Don't you think we're smarter than this?
Everybody take a breath Why are all your faces red We're missin' all the words you said You don't have to yell Draw your lines and choose your side Many things are worth the fight But louder doesn't make you right You don't have to yell You don't have to yell
Everybody take a breath Why are all your faces red We're missin' all the words you said You don't have to yell (If everyone will take the step Back away and count to ten Clear your mind and start again We won’t have to yell) Draw your lines and choose your side Many things are worth the fight But louder doesn't make you right You don't have to yell You don't have to yell

And that cigarette you're smoking 'Bout scared me half to death Open up the window, sucker Let me catch my breath
Mama told me not to come Mama told me not to come She said, that ain't the way to have fun, son That ain't the way to have fun, son

I'm a sucker for songs that tell a story and this one is really poignant: Viva La Vida Coldplay
I used to rule the world Seas would rise when I gave the word Now in the morning I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemies eyes Listen as the crowd would sing: "Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt, and pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can not explain Once you know there was never, never an honest word That was when I ruled the world (Ohhh)
It was the wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in. Shattered windows and the sound of drums People could not believe what I'd become Revolutionaries Wait For my head on a silver plate Just a puppet on a lonely string Oh who would ever want to be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can not explain I know Saint Peter won't call my name Never an honest word And that was when I ruled the world (Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
Hear Jerusalem bells are ringings Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can not explain I know Saint Peter will call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh

In honor of tonight: Thriller Michael Jackson with Vincent Price
It's close to midnight and something evils lurking in the dark Under the moonlight you see a sight that almost stops your heart You try to scream but terror takes the sound before you make it You start to freeze as horror looks you right between the eyes, You're paralyzed
'Cause this is thriller, thriller night And no one's gonna save you from the beast about strike You know its thriller, thriller night Youre fighting for your life inside a killer, thriller tonight
You hear the door slam and realize there's nowhere left to run You feel the cold hand and wonder if you'll ever see the sun You close your eyes and hope that this is just imagination But all the while you hear the creature creepin up behind You're out of time
'Cause this is thriller, thriller night There ain't no second chance against the thing with forty eyes You know its thriller, thriller night You're fighting for your life inside of killer, thriller tonight
Night creatures call And the dead start to walk in their masquerade There's no escapin' the jaws of the alien this time (they're open wide) This is the end of your life
They're out to get you, there's demons closing in on every side They will possess you unless you change the number on your dial Now is the time for you and I to cuddle close together All thru the night I'll save you from the terror on the screen, I'll make you see
That this is thriller, thriller night 'Cause I can thrill you more than any ghost would dare to try Girl, this is thriller, thriller night So let me hold you tight and share a killer, diller, chiller Thriller here tonight
(rap performed by vincent price) Darkness falls across the land The midnite hour is close at hand Creatures crawl in search of blood To terrorize yawls neighbourhood And whosoever shall be found Without the soul for getting down Must stand and face the hounds of hell And rot inside a corpses shell The foulest stench is in the air The funk of forty thousand years And grizzy ghouls from every tomb Are closing in to seal your doom And though you fight to stay alive Your body starts to shiver For no mere mortal can resist The evil of the thriller
AAhahahahaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!! Ahahahahahaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!

Taxi Harry Chapin
It was raining hard in 'Frisco, I needed one more fare to make my night. A lady up ahead waved to flag me down, She got in at the light. Oh, where you going to, my lady blue, It's a shame you ruined your gown in the rain. She just looked out the window, and said "Sixteen Parkside Lane".
Something about her was familiar I could swear I'd seen her face before, But she said, "I'm sure you're mistaken" And she didn't say anything more.
It took a while, but she looked in the mirror, And she glanced at the license for my name. A smile seemed to come to her slowly, It was a sad smile, just the same. And she said, "How are you Harry?" I said, "How are you Sue? Through the too many miles And the too little smiles I still remember you."
It was somewhere in a fairy tale, I used to take her home in my car. We learned about love in the back of the Dodge, The lesson hadn't gone too far. You see, she was gonna be an actress, And I was gonna learn to fly. She took off to find the footlights, And I took off to find the sky.
Oh, I've got something inside me, To drive a princess blind. There's a wild man, wizard, He's hiding in me, illuminating my mind. Oh, I've got something inside me, Not what my life's about, Cause I've been letting my outside tide me, Over 'till my time, runs out.
Baby's so high that she's skying, Yes she's flying, afraid to fall. I'll tell you why baby's crying, Cause she's dying, aren't we all.
There was not much more for us to talk about, Whatever we had once was gone. So I turned my cab into the driveway, Past the gate and the fine trimmed lawns. And she said we must get together, But I knew it'd never be arranged. And she handed me twenty dollars, For a two fifty fare, she said "Harry, keep the change." Well another man might have been angry, And another man might have been hurt, But another man never would have let her go... I stashed the bill in my shirt.
And she walked away in silence, It's strange, how you never know, But we'd both gotten what we'd asked for, Such a long, long time ago.
You see, she was gonna be an actress And I was gonna learn to fly. She took off to find the footlights, And I took off for the sky. And here, she's acting happy, Inside her handsome home. And me, I'm flying in my taxi, Taking tips, and getting stoned, I go flying so high, when I'm stoned.

Coffee Break (from How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying)
There's no coffee! No coffee! Oh!
If I can't take my coffee break, My coffee break, my coffee break . . . If I can't take my coffee break, Something within me dies. Lies down and something within me dies.
If I can't make three daily trips Where shining shrine Benignly drips And taste cardboard between my lips, Something within me dies. Lies down and something within me dies.
No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee!
That office light doesn't have to be fluorescent; I'll get no pains in the head. That office chair doesn't have to be foam rubber; So if I spread, so I spread; But only one chemical substance Gets out the lead-- Like she said:
If I can't take my coffee break, My coffee break, my coffee break . . . If I can't take my coffee break, Gone is the sense of enterprise All gone, and something within me dies.
No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee!
If I can't take my coffee break, Somehow the soul no longer tries; Somewhere I don't metabolize; Something within me . . . Coffee or otherwise, Coffee or otherwise, Coffee or otherwise, Something inside of me dies!
