my fave non-group Steely Dan splitup in the mid 80's, Donald Fagen and Walter Becker each going on to do solo albums. Here's one from Walter Beckerz's 11 TRACKS OF WHACK:

 

BOOK OF LIARS

 

Bye and bye now

We'll get over

The things we've done and the things we said

But not just now when

I can't remember

Exactly what it was I thought we had

Cause I waited so long girl and I came so far

To find out you're not always who you say you are

And there's a star in the book of liars by your name.

 

Santa Claus came in late last night

Drunk on Christmas wine

Fell down hard in the driveway

Hung his bag out on the laundry line.

There's a Cobra Gunship for his golden boy

And there's a Hello Kitty for his pride and joy

And a silver star in the book of liars by your name.

They hung a star in the book of liars by your name.

 

Stars imploding

The long night passing

Electrons dancing in the frozen crystal dawn.

Here's one left stranded at the zero crossing

With a hole in its half-life left to carry on.

But now the world's much larger than it looks today

And if my bad luck ever brings me back this way

Then I just look in my book of liars for your name

I'll just look in the book of liars for your name

[bods1000]

Here's one from Steely Dan's GAUCHO

 

HEY NINETEEN

 

Way back when

In Sixty-seven

I was the dandy

Of Gamma Chi

Sweet things from Boston

So young and willing

Moved down to Scarsdale

And where the hell am I

 

Hey Nineteen

No we can't dance together

No we can't talk at all

Please take me along

When you slide on down.

 

Hey Nineteen

That's 'Retha Franklin

She don't remember

The Queen of Soul

It's hard times befallen

The sole survivors

She thinks I'm crazy

But I'm just growing old

 

Hey Nineteen

No we've got nothing in common

No we can't talk at all

Please take me along

When you slide on down

 

The Cuervo Gold

The fine Colombian

Make tonight a wonderful thing

 

We can't dance together

No we can't talk at all.

Cinderella - Cheetah Girls

Disney

 

When I was just a little girl

My mama used to tuck me into bed

And she read me a story

It always was about a princess in distress

And how a guy would save her

And end up with the glory

 

I'd lie in my boyfriend's bed

and have so much fun

Chorus:

I don’t wanna be like Cinderella

Sitting in a dark old dusty cellar

Waiting for somebody to come and set me free

I don´t wanna be like Snow White waiting

For a handsome prince to come and save me

On a horse of white unless were riding side by side

Don´t wanna depend on no one else

I'd rather rescue myself

 

Someday I'm gonna find someone

Who wants my soul, heart, and mind

Who's not afraid to show that he loves me

Somebody who will understand

I'm happy just the way I am

Don't need nobody taking care of me

 

I will be there for him just as strong as he will be there for me

When I get myself that it has got to be an equal thing

 

(Chorus)

 

I can slay my own dragons

I can dream my own dreams

My knight in shining armor is me

So I'm gonna set me free

 

(Chorus to fade)

ALL STOOD STILL - Ultravox

 

The lights went out (The last fuse blew).

The clocks all stopped (It can't be true).

The program's wrong (What can we do?).

The printout's blocked (It relied on you).

 

The turbine cracked up.

The buildings froze up.

The system choked up.

What can we do?

 

Please remember to mention me,

In tapes you leave behind.

 

Chorus :

 

We stood still.

We all stood still.

Still stood still.

We're standing still.

 

The screen shut down (There's no reply).

The lifts all fall (A siren cries).

And the radar fades (A pilot sighs).

As the countdowns stall (The readout lies).

 

The turbines cracked up.

The buildings froze up.

The system choked up.

What can we do?

 

Please remember to mention me,

In tapes you leave behind.

 

(Chorus)

 

The black box failed (The codes got crossed).

And the jails decayed (The keys got lost).

Everyone kissed (We breathe exhaust).

In the new arcade (Of the holocaust).

 

The turbine cracked up.

The buildings froze up.

The system choked up.

What can we do?

 

Plese remember to mention me,

In tapes you might leave behind.

MILK - Garbage

 

I am milk

I am red hot kitchen

And I am cool

Cool as the deep blue ocean

 

I am lost

So I am cruel

But I'd be love and sweetness

If I had you

 

I'm waiting

I'm waiting for you

I'm waiting

I'm waiting for you

 

I am weak

But I am strong

I can use my tears to

Bring you home

 

I'm waiting

I'm waiting for you

I'm waiting

I'm waiting for you

I'm waiting

I'm waiting for you

 

I am milk

I am red hot kitchen

I am cool

Cool as the deep blue ocean

 

I'm waiting

I'm waiting for you

I'm waiting

I'm waiting for you............

[bonito99]

Dirait-on

 

Abandon entouré d'abandon,

Tendresse touchant aux tendresses...

C'est ton intérieur qui sans cesse

Se caresse, dirait-on;

Se caresse en soi-même,

Par son proper reflet éclairé.

Ainsi tu inventes le thème

Du narcisse exaucé.

 

(Abandon surrounding abandon,

tenderness touching tenderness...

Your oneness endlessly

caresses itself, so they say;

Self-caressing

Through its own clear reflection.

Thus you invent the theme

of Nacissus fulfilled. )

So Little Time

Arkarna

 

Took a while to drag me out of bed,

Aim some coffee at my head,

Saw the clock I'm running late,

It's an ordinary day.

And I'm like a dog on heat,

Knock one out and then fall asleep,

It's sad but true,

I'd rather be with you

 

Don't you forget about me,

When you're a celebrity,

It will be only you and me

Before too long.

 

So little time so much to do,

I rather spend my days with you,

So little time so much to do,

I'd like to spend one day with you,

And if that day is not enough,

Maybe we can stay in touch,

But i'm not making plans for tomorrow,

For tomorrow never comes.

(ohhhh)

Said I've been celibate for years,

Not out of choice theres no-one here,

See I can't give my end away,

Another ordinary day,

And I've love to see a little more of you,

You're clothes would look better on my bedroom floor,

bedroom floor,bedroom floor.

 

Don't you forget about me,

When you're a celebrity

I know you're busy,

But we all need somebody - before too long

 

So little time so much to do,

I rather spend my days with you,

So little time so much to do,

I'd like to spend one day with you,

And if that day is not enough,

Maybe we can stay in touch,

But i'm not making plans for tomorrow,

For tomorrow never comes.

(ohhhh)

Rush

Big Audio Dynamite II

 

If I had my time again,

I would do it all the same,

And not change a single thing,

Even when I was to blame,

 

For the heartache & the pain,

That I caused throughout my years,

How I'd love to be your man,

Through the laughter & the tears,

 

Situation no win,

Rush for a change of atmosphere,

I can't go on so I give in,

Gotta get myself right outta here,

 

Now I'm fully grown,

And I know where it's at,

Somehow I stay thin,

While the other guys got fat,

 

All the chances that I've blown,

And the times that I've been down,

I didn't get too high,

Kept my feet on the ground,

 

Situation no win,

Rush for a change of atmosphere,

I can't go on so I give in,

Gotta get myself right outta here,

 

And of all my friends,

You've been the best to me,

Soon will be the day,

When I would pay you handsomely,

 

Broken hearts are hard to mend,

I know I've had my share,

But life just carries on,

Even when I'm not there,

 

Situation no win,

Rush for a change of atmosphere,

I can't go on so I give in,

Gotta get myself right outta here,

 

Situation no win,

Rush for a change of atmosphere,

I can't go on so I give in,

Gotta get myself right outta here,

 

Gotta get myself right,

Gotta get myself right,

Gotta get myself right outta here,

 

Gotta get myself right,

Gotta get myself right,

Gotta get myself right outta here

[roxysnonie]

my collection on my signature tells it all, i guess!

NO ONE IS TO BLAME - Howard Jones

 

You can look at the menu

But you just can't eat

You can feel the cushion

But you can't have a seat

 

You can dip your foot in the pool

But you can't have a swim

You can feel the punishment

But you can't commit the sin

 

(CHORUS)

And you want her

And she wants you

We want everyone

And you want her

And she wants you

No one, no one

No one ever is to blame

 

You can build a mansion

But you just can't live in it

You're the fastest runner

But you're not allowed to win

 

Some break the rules

And let you cut the cost

The insecurity is the thing

That won't get lost

 

(CHORUS)

 

You can see the summit

But you can't reach it

It's the last piece of the puzzle

But you just can't make it fit

 

Doctor says you're cured

But you still feel the pain

Aspirations in the clouds but

Your hopes go down the drain

 

(CHORUS)

 

No one ever is to blame

No one ever is to blame

Notting Hill Blues

 

words and music by Roddy Frame of Aztec Camera

 

 

All the madness in the mirror,

The tremblin' and the tears.

It takes a long time comin' out,

It's comin' out of here.

I've been wandering your London town,

And it's wearin' out my shoes.

It's a long road comin' down,

Comin' down with the blues.

 

But when you hold me and really make love to me,

I know that love is true forgiveness.

Time on my mind is time spent with you,

But it's time that I can't find,

With the Notting Hill blues.

 

Lovers pass me on the gate,

Like distant cousins, removed,

Holding hands, it seems like an act of fate,

And I'm almost moved.

But love has left me standing still,

With no directions and no clues,

No speech to let my feelings loose.

A celebration of the blues.

 

But when you hold me and really make love to me,

I know that love is true forgiveness.

Out on the road I was down with the crew,

Now I'm all alone, on the run,

With the Notting Hill blues.

 

And it's a lonely, lonely time,

Sadness preys upon my mind,

A telephone and a bottle of booze,

But who do you call? when your tongue tied,

Up all night...

one of my all-time favorite OPMs .. by Basil Valdez ..

 

 

 

LET THE PAIN REMAIN

 

 

Love comes

Love goes

But a certain feeling never lets me be

Somehow,

I know

Quite a part of me’s unchanged

Since you’ve been gone

Like a sturdy tree that’s seen a thousand seasons

I’ve to shed my leaves in winter

To grow them back in spring

To welcome life again

To welcome you...

 

So goes

My life

Still believe in dreams of having you around

Too bad,

Memories

Feed the mind and not the heart

Where i want you to be

So i ask myself what you have left behind for me

To go on each day to live

As if i’ll have you once again

What else is there that’s real

But all the pain that i feel...

 

So let the pain remain

Forever in my heart

For every drop it brings

Is one more moment spent with you

I’ll let the pain

Bring on the rain

If that’s the only way

If there’s no other way

To be with you again...

I Want To Conquer The World - Bad Religion

 

hey brother christian with your high and mighty errand,

your actions speak so loud I can't hear a word you're saying

hey sister bleeding heart with all of your compassion,

your labors soothe the hurt but can't assuage temptation

 

hey man of science with your perfect rules of measure,

can you improve this place with the data that you gather

hey mother mercy can your loins bear fruit forever?

is your fecundity a trammel or a treasure?

 

I want to conquer the world,

give all the idiots a brand new religion,

put an end to poverty uncleanliness

and toll promote equality in all of my decisions

with a quick wink of the eye and a "god you must be joking"

 

hey mister diplomat with your worldly aspirations,

did you see the children cry when you left them at the station?

hey moral soldier you've got righteous proclamation

and precious tomes to fuel your pulpy conflagrations

 

I want to conquer the world,

expose the culprits and feed them to the children,

I'll save the whales,

we'll have peace on earth

and global communion.....

[Jessie]

"A Thousand Miles"

 

Making my way downtown

Walking fast

Faces passed

And I'm home bound

 

Staring blankly ahead

Just making my way

Making my way

Through the crowd

 

And I need you

And I miss you

And now I wonder....

 

If I could fall

Into the sky

Do you think time

Would pass me by

'Cause you know I'd walk

A thousand miles

If I could

Just see you

Tonight

 

It's always times like these

When I think of you

And I wonder

If you ever

Think of me

 

'Cause everything's so wrong

And I don't belong

Living in your

Precious memories

 

'Cause I need you

And I miss you

And now I wonder....

 

If I could fall

Into the sky

Do you think time

Would pass me by

'Cause you know I'd walk

A thousand miles

If I could

Just see you

Tonight

 

And I, I

Don't want to let you know

I, I

Drown in your memory

I, I

Don't want to let this go

I, I

Don't....

 

Making my way downtown

Walking fast

Faces passed

And I'm home bound

 

Staring blankly ahead

Just making my way

Making my way

Through the crowd

 

And I still need you

And I still miss you

And now I wonder....

 

If I could fall

Into the sky

Do you think time

Would pass us by

'Cause you know I'd walk

A thousand miles

If I could

Just see you...

 

If I could fall

Into the sky

Do you think time

Would pass me by

'Cause you know I'd walk

A thousand miles

If I could

Just see you

If I could

Just hold you

Tonight

WHAT YOU WON'T DO FOR LOVE

Bobby Caldwell

 

I guess you wonder where I've been

I searched to find the love within

I came back to let you know

Got a thing for you and I can't let it go.

 

My friends wonder what is wrong with me

Well I'm in a daze from your love, you see

I came back to let you know

Got a thing for you and I can' let it go.

 

Some people go around the world for love

And they may never find what they dream of

 

What you won't do, you do for love

You tried everything but you don't give up

In my world, only you

Make me do for love what I would not do

 

You know I only want the best, it's true

I can't believe the things I do for you.

 

Make me do for love what I would not do.

[P4l1k3r0]

For me, I like the the lyrics on "Too Young" by Jack Wagner. Because it mirrors my teenage years.

Age Ain't Nothing But A Number

 

"At Your Best"[ACAPELLA:]

Let me know, let me know

Ah - ha, let me know, let me know

Let me know

 

[VERSE 1:]

When I feel what I feel

Sometimes it's hard to tell you so

You may not be in the mood to learn what you think you know

 

There are times when I find

You want to keep yourself from me

When I don't have the strength; I'm just a mirror to what I see

 

[CHORUS:]

But at your best you are love

You're a positive motivating force within my life

Should you ever feel the need to wonder why

Let me know, let me know. . .

 

[VERSE 2:]

When you feel what you feel

Oh, how hard for me to understand

So many things have happened before this love affair began

 

But when you feel, oh, like I feel

Confusion can give way to doubt

And there are times when I fall short of what I say,

what I say I'm all about, all about

 

[CHORUS]

 

[bRIDGE:]

Tell me what it is (Tell me what it is)

Make believe, no need to make believe

Look beyond your own (Look beyond your own)

Try and find another place for me

Cause. . .

 

[CHORUS]

 

Ah, ah, ah - ha

See, at your best baby

[ranter]

Weekend in New England

 

Last night I waved goodbye

Now it seems years

I’m back in the city

Nothing is clear

Thoughts of me holding you, bringing us near

 

When will our eyes meet

When can I touch you

When will this strong yearning end and

When will I hold you again

 

Time in New England, took me away

From long rocky beaches and you by the bay

We started a story, whose end we must now wait

 

And tell me

When will our eyes meet

When can I touch you

When will this strong yearning end and

When will I hold you again

 

I feel a change coming

I feel the wind blow

I feel brave and daring

I feel my blood flow

With you I could bring out

All the love that I have

With you there’s a heaven

So earth ain’t so bad

 

And tell me

When will our eyes meet

When can I touch you

When will this strong yearning end and

When will I hold you again

 

This is my song for Love

[pcrpogi]

With One More Look at You

 

 

With one more look at you,

I can learn to change the stars and change our fortunes too.

I'll let the constellations paint your portrait too.

So all the world can share this wondrous sight.

The world could end each night.

With one more look at you.

[molato]

Something Right

 

 

 

(Written by Julia Fordham)

 

I've been down to the river

And seen the other side

I have cowered in the corner

Without a place to hide

I've been lost and forsaken

And sworn 'd not get through

But I must have done something right

To be here loving you

I must have done something right

To be here loving you

I have searched

For the whole truth

And seldom have I lied

I have been the silent witness

To all the tears've cried

There are things that I have done

I wish I could undo

 

Chorus

 

There were times when i had lost my

Will to carry on

I'm glad I found the strength to

So I could sing this song

There are things that I have done

I wish I could undo

Moondance

by Michael Bublé

 

 

 

Well, it's a marvelous night for a Moondance

With the stars up above in your eyes

A fantabulous night to make romance

'Neath the cover of October skies

And all the leaves on the trees are falling

To the sound of the breezes that blow

And I'm trying to please to the calling

Of your heart-strings that play soft and low

And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush

And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush

 

Can I just have one more Moondance with you, my love

Can I just make some more romance with you, my love

 

Well, I wanna make love to you tonight

I can't wait 'til the morning has come

And I know that the time is just right

And straight into my arms you will run

And when you come my heart will be waiting

To make sure that you're never alone

There and then all my dreams will come true, dear

There and then I will make you my own

Any time I touch you, you just tremble inside

And I know how much you want me that you can't hide

 

Can I just have one more Moondance with you, my love

Can I just make some more romance with you, my love

 

Well, I wanna make love to you tonight

I can't wait 'til the morning has come

And I know that the time is just right

And straight into my arms you will run

And when you come my heart will be waiting

To make sure that you're never alone

There and then all my dreams will come true, dear

There and then I will make you my own

Any time I touch you, you just tremble inside

And I know how much you want me that you can't hide

 

Can I just have one more Moondance with you, my love

Can I just make some more romance with you, my love

 

Can I just have one more Moondance with you, my love

Can I just make some more romance with you, my love

 

Can I just have one more Moondance with you, my love

Can I just make some more romance with you, my love

 

My Love, my love

I just want one more moondance with you, yes I do
