Windfall
You were so loud,
shootin’ off your mouth,
’bout why the world sh-ts on you,
talkin’ old tropes
thought up by filthy dopes,
that never once were proven true.
You stood so proud,
but, man, where are you now?
Living in a poor rat trap.
Say you’re oppressed,
don’t bother to get dressed,
think government should ‘pay you back.’
Sad to say, we worked and you played,
we’re

Don't Play Funky
Standing there with your glistening hair,
miniskirt tempting all eyes around,
say you’re just going out the unwind
with you friends, hottest club in the town.
Looks can kill and I’m thinking that you
mean to draw every wandering eye,
as if you do not have a man here,
as if you’re on the hunt for a guy.
Don’t play funky with me,

I miss you so much Lyrics by Jan Allison
Close friends don't know the pain I feel
My broken heart can never heal
Your sudden death was long ago
The pain I feel, close friends don't know
I can't forget your dying breath
Was long ago your sudden death
To think of you makes me upset
Your dying breath I can't forget
Alone each night, I feel so blue
Makes me upset to

I've Got the Best
See them…
in the street light,
done up…
for a hot night,
made up….
like a French whore,
skin tight…
on a dance floor.
Their men keep coming,
the richest in town,
end up laying all
their money down.
Got no pity
for all of these clowns,
’cause I know…
I have got the best, girl,
they have got the rest,
I’ve got the brass ring,
they, the hot mess,
I’ve god the good

Unmade, Fire and Ice lyrics, updated
The demons come out to play, may they fall,
As they seek their next prey.
I was trapped on a merry-go-round,
Lost in salt-trodden earth and pain.
Forgive me
For praying to God for you,
While enemies hid within,
Claiming to be friends.
Salt falls on the stage, as demons sing,
A Trojan horse births the

The Heat
You wake up, head in a haze,
can’t recall the prior day,
felt less good than it used to,
joints aching all over you.
Don’t know why you all went out,
pay today, there is no doubt,
something burned and you answered,
can’t explain, put into words…
Can’t explain, where it came from,
can’t explain, why it was done,
tried in vain, fooling no one,
when

Long Winter Coming
I see a long winter coming
(yes, I know)
the dull gray spreads ahead of me,
there ain’t no use in running
(if I could)
from yourself you can never flee.
There’s a long winter coming
(how’d I know)
you’d take it to such an extreme,
thought that we were something,
(yes, you did)
when to ‘benefits’ we agreed.
…Oh, the lies we tell,
to fake peace with

Back It Up
I hear the way you talk
of your friends without end,
the gossip goes on non-stop,
about them and their men,
so vicious the things you say,
shock to see, candidly,
imagine what you must claim
about me, when you’re free…
Back it up,
take that sh-t elsewhere,
woman, I no longer care.
Pack it up,
The drama I’ll spare,
woman, I no longer care.
Eyes sparkle when thing

A Psychedelic Group with Philosophical Lyrics
welcome to Pink Floyd and welcome to the machine
behold the temple of light, and don’t be mean
A psychedelic group, so readily enjoyed and seen
Philosophical lyrics, a rival of Freddie and Queen
Comfortably numb, sit back and enjoy the show
Goodbye blue sky, this concert is the way to go
Pigs on the wing are traveling down the aisle

Come The Break Of Day
Saw you standing in the club door,
not my normal kind,
something I you just grabbed my stare,
tumbled through my mind.
Had to come and buy you a drink,
had to know your name,
I just want to skip right ahead
past all the foolish games.
All the thing I could do to you,
keep you busy the whole night through,
you and I

Get The Lead Out
You always think on everything bad,
feeling one mistake will cost all you have,
seeing all sides until it’s too late,
if not satisfied then you just wait,
while other men are playing the game,
half as good as you but winning all the same;
when you can seize it at any time,
overthinking things ain’t always wise.
Get the lead out, get

Let It Explode
Every day it seems a battle,
finds a way to leave you rattled,
the nonsense you see on TV,
lots of lies from the legacy,
traffic jams, can’t work from home,
boss demands, tell his where to go,
just goes on, the price we must pay,
comes a time you must get away!
I want to go off,
let this thing blow off,
the stress

Let Me Deserve It
You say that everything somehow come down to me,
that I’m reason for you wrongs, whatever they might be.
If, somehow, I disappeared then things would be all right,
I’ve been here from the start, won’t leave without a fight.
You’re speaking, and freaking,
a tantrum, so damn glum,
you think you’re explaining,
instead it’s just blaming.
Tell me how did we get

Anywhere That We May Go
I’m stir crazy in here and we’ve waited much too long,
we’ve got a map full of dates and a dozen awesome songs,
just wanna get on the road and bring this show to you,
there ain’t no better job, and we are the lucky few.
We’ll be cruising the nations,
don’t need no reservations,
screw all the complications,
I don’t care

Takes The Edge Off
If you don’t work, you don’t eat,
oh, God set things this way,
live off sacrifice of time
just to get through the day.
But the best things you cannot buy,
seems a Catch Twenty-two,
and when you’re left without them,
oh, what are you to do?
My girl left me last week,
she wanted something more,
money brought me a new one,
at least ’till
