Backstabbers

(What they do!)

(They smile in your face)
All the time they want to take your place
The back stabbers (back stabbers)


All you fellows who have someone and you really care, yeah, yeah
Then it's all of you fellows who better beware, yeah yeah
Somebody's out to get your lady
A few of your buddies they sure look shady
Blades are long, clenched tight in their fist
Aimin' straight at your back
And I don't think they'll miss

(What they do!)

(They smile in your face)
All the time they want to take your place
The back stabbers (back stabbers)


I keep gettin' all these visits from my friends, yeah,
They come to my house again and again and again and again, yeah
So are they there to see my woman
I don't even be home but they just keep on comin'
What can I do to get on the right track
I wish they'd take some of these knives off my back

(They smile in your face)
All the time they want to take your place
The back stabbers (back stabbers)


Low down... dirty...

(What they do!)

(They smile in your face)
Smiling faces... smiling faces sometimes tell lies
(Back stabbers)

(They smile in your face)
I don't need... low down, dirty bastards
(Back stabbers) [fade]

In Dreams

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
Go to sleep. everything is all right.

I close my eyes, then I drift away
Into the magic night. I softly say
A silent prayerlike dreamers do.
Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you.

In dreams I walk with you. in dreams I talk to you.
In dreams youre mine. all of the time were together
In dreams, in dreams.

But just before the dawn, I awake and find you gone.
I cant help it, I cant help it, if I cry.
I remember that you said goodbye.

Its too bad that all these things, can only happen in my dreams
Only in dreams in beautiful dreams.

It's Yours

What makes you journey into the night and take flight on a pursuit of
musical bliss? Chasing beats through ghetto streets to a dungenous temple
left by our soul descendents in a quest for peace, energy, and light.
If you were to find this temple, do you have the knowlege to enter the
temple?

Do you want it? and if you had it would you flaunt it, it's yours.

Acquiring enterance into the temple is hard, but faith. Trek through
god-forsaken elements because the reward is well worth the journey. Stay
steadfast in your pursit of the light, the light is knowledge.

Do you want it, and if you had it would you flaunt it, it's yours.

You've stayed true to your quest, so let the beauty that is the musical
universe engulf you. Recharge your sprit, purify your mind, touch your
soul, and give you the eternal joy of happyness you truly deserve. You now
have the knowledge.

Do you want it? and if you had it would you flaunt
it? well it's yours.

It's Yours - John Cutler feat. E-Man (used as background music for a soccer video)

Troy

I'll remember it
And Dublin in a rainstorm
And sitting in the long grass in summer
Keeping warm
I'll remember it
Every restless night
We were so young then
We thought that everything
We could possibly do was right
Then we moved
Stolen from our very eyes
And I wondered where you went to
Tell me when did the light die
You will rise
You'll return
The phoenix from the flame
You will learn
You will rise
You'll return
Being what you are
There is no other Troy
For you to burn
And I never meant to hurt you
I swear I didn't mean
Those things I said
I never meant to do that to you
Next time I'll keep my hands to myself instead
Oh, does she love you
What do you want to do?
Does she need you like I do?
Do you love her?
Is she good for you?
Does she hold you like I do?
Do you want me?
Should I leave?
I know you're always telling me
That you love me
Just sometimes I wonder
If I should believe
Oh, I love you
God, I love you
I'd kill a dragon for you
I'll die
But I will rise
And I will return
The Phoenix from the flame
I have learned
I will rise
And you'll see me return
Being what I am
There is no other Troy
For me to burn
And you should've left the light on
You should've left the light on
Then I wouldn't have tried
And you'd never have known
And I wouldn't have pulled you tighter
No I wouldn't have pulled you close
I wouldn't have screamed
No I can't let you go
And the door wasn't closed
No I wouldn't have pulled you to me
No I wouldn't have kissed your face
You wouldn't have begged me to hold you
If we hadn't been there in the first place
Ah but I know you wanted me to be there oh oh
Every look that you threw told me so
But you should've left the light on
You should've left the light on
And the flames burned away
But you're still spitting fire
Make no difference what you say
You're still a liar
You're still a liar
You're still a lawyer

Sinead O'Connor - Troy (Live Pinkpop 1988)

Private Investigations

It's a mystery to me - the game commences
for the usual fee - plus expenses
confidential information - it's not a public inquiry

I go checking out the reports - digging up the dirt
you get to meet all sorts in this line of work
treachery and treason - there's always an excuse for it
and when I find the reason I still can't get used to it

And what have you got at the end of the day?
what have you got to take away?
a bottle of whisky and a new set of lies
blinds on the windows and a pain behind the eyes

Scarred for life - nocompensation
private investigations

Supernature

Once upon a time
Science opened up the door
We would feed the hungry fields
Till they couldn't eat no more

But the potions that we made
Touched the creatures down below
And they grow up in a way
That we'd never seen before

Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature

They were angry with the man
Cause changed their way of life
And they take their sweet revenge
As they trample through the night

For hundred miles or more
You could hear the people cry
But there is nothing you can do
Even God is on their side
(God is on, God is on, God is on their side)

Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature

Cars will break the light
Come flowing in the air
The creature will decide
Who goes where

How can I explain
Things are different today
Darkness all around
No one makes a sound
Such a sad affair
No one seems to care

Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature

Better watch out
There's no way to stop it now
You can't escape
It's too late
Look what you've done
There's no place that you can run
The monsters made
We must pray

Maybe nature has a plan
To control the ways of man
He must start from scratch again
Many battles must he win
Till he earns his place on earth
Like the other creatures do
Will there be a happy end
Now that all depends on you

Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature

N'oubliez Jamais

Papa, why do you play
All the same old songs
Why do you sing
With the melody

Cause down on the street
Somethings goin' on
There's a new beat
And a brand new song

He said
In my life, there was so much anger
Still I have no regrets
Just like you, I was such a rebel
So dance your own dance, and never forget

N'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation has it's way
A need to disobey

N'oubliez jamais
It's in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N'oubliez jamais

Mamma, why do you dance
To the same old songs
Why do you sing
Only the harmony

Down on the street
Something's goin' on
There's a new beat
And a brand new song

She said
In my heart theres a young girls passion
For a life long duet
Someday soon
Someone's smile will haunt you
So sing your own song and never forget

N'oubliez jamais page 2
I heard my father say
Every generation has it's way
A need to disobey

N'oubliez jamais
It's in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N'oubliez jamais

What is this game
Searching for love or fame, it's all the same
One of these days you say that love will be the cure
I'm not sure

N'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation has it's way
A need to disobey

N'oubliez jamais
It's in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N'oubliez jamais

You and your friend

You And Your Friend
will you and your friend come around
are you and your friend gonna get on down
will you and your friend come around
or are you and your friend gonna let me down

if you talk to one another
I'm a hungry man
let me know one way or the other
so I can make my plans

will you and your friend come around
are you and your friend gonna get on down
will you and your friend come around
or are you and your friend gonna let me down

I relive the situation
still see in in my mind
you got my imagination
working overtime



Ticket To Heaven
I can see what you're looking to find
in the smile on my face
in my peace of mind
in my state of grace
I send what I can
to the man from the ministry
he's a part of heaven's plan
and he talks to me

now I send what I can to the man
with the diamond ring
he's a part of heaven's plan
and he sure can sing
now it's all I can afford
but the lord has sent me eternity
it's to save the little children
in a poor country

I got my ticket to heaven
and everlasting life
I got a ride all the way to paradise
I got my ticket to heaven
and everlasting life
all the way to paradise

now there's nothing left for luxuries
nothing left to pay my heating bill
but the good lord will provide
I know he will
so send what you can
to the man with the diamond ring
they're tuning in across the land
to hear him sing

I got my ticket to heaven
and everlasting life
I got a ride all the way to paradise
I got my ticket to heaven
and everlasting life
all the way to paradise

Walk a mile in my shoes

If I could be you and you could be me for just one hour
If we could find a way to get inside each other's mind
If you could see me through your eyes instead of your ego
I believe you'd be surprised to see that you'd been blind.

Walk a mile in my shoes, walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes.

Now your whole world you see around you is just a reflection
And the law of common says you reap just what you sow
So unless you've lived a life of total perfection
You'd better be careful of every stone that you throw.

Walk a mile in my shoes, walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes.

And yet we spend the day throwing stones at one another
'Cause I don't think or wear my hair the same way you do
Well I may be common people but I'm your brother
And when you strike out and try to hurt me its a-hurtin' you.

Walk a mile in my shoes, walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes.

There are people on reservations and out in the ghettos
And brother there but for the grace of God go you and I
If I only had the wings of a little angel
Don't you know I'd fly to the top of the mountain, and then I'd cry.

Walk a mile in my shoes, walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes, shoes.

Our Darkness

Through these city nightmares you'd walk with me
And we'd talk of it with idealistic assurance
That it wouldn't tear us apart
We'd keep our heads above the blackened water
But there's no room for ideals in this mechanical place
And you're gone now

Through a grimy window that I can't keep clean
Through billowing smoke that's swallowed the sun
You're nowhere to be seen

Do you think our desires still burn
I guess it was desires that tore us apart
There has to be passion
A passion for living, surviving
And that means detachment
Everybody has a weapon to fight you with
To beat you with when you are down
There were too many defences between us

Doubting all the time
Fearing all the time
Doubting all the time
Fearing all the time
That like these urban nightmares
We'd blacken each other skies

When we passed the subways we tried to ignore our fate there
Of written threats on endless walls
Unjustified crimes carried in stifled calls
Would you walk with me now through this pouring rain
It used to mingle with our tears then dry the hopes that we left behind
It rains even harder now

Dominion/Mother Russia

In the heat of the night
In the heat of the day
When I close my eyes
When I look your way
When I meet the fear that lies inside
When I hear you say
In the heat of the moment
Say, say, say

Some day, some day, some day, dominion
Come a time
Some day, some day, some day, dominion
Some say prayers
Some say prayers
I say mine

In the light of the fact
On the lone and level
Sand stretch far away
In the heat of the action
In the settled dust
Hold hold and say
In the meeting of mined
Down in the streets of shame
In the betting of names on gold to rust
In the land of the blind
Be...king, king, king, king

Some day, some day, some day, dominion
Come a time
Some day, some day, some day, dominion
Some say prayers
Some say prayers
I say mine

Some day, some day, some day, dominion
Some say prayers
Some say prayers
I say mine

In the heat of the night
In the heat of the day
When I close my eyes
When I look your way
When I meet the fear that lies inside
When I hear you say
In the heat of the moment
Say, say, say

Some day, some day, some day, dominion
Some say prayers
Some say prayers
I say mine
I say mine
I say mine

We serve an old moan in a dry season
A lighthouse keeper in the desert sun
Dreamers of sleepers and white treason
We dream of rain and the history of the gun
Theres a lighthouse in the middle of prussia
A white house in a red square
Im living in films for the sake of russia
A kino runner for the ddr
And the fifty-two daughters of the revolution
Turn the gold to chrome
Gift...nothing to lose
Stuck inside of memphis with the mobile home, sing:

Mother russia
Mother russia
Mother russia rain down down down
Mother russia
Mother russia
Mother russia rain down

Everybody's free

Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free
Brother and sister
Together we'll make it through
Some day a spirit will
Lift you and take you there
I know you've been hurting
But I've been there
Waiting to be there for you
And I'll be there just helping you out
Whenever I can
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
We are all a family
That should stand together as one
Helping each other
Instead of just wasting time
Now is the moment to
Reach out to someone
It's all up to you
When everyone's sharing their hope
Then love will win through
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
Everybody's free to feel good
