This just won't leave me alone... just the chorus, all the time.


Well I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you

Maid in Bedlam

Abroad as I was walking
one evening in the spring
I heard a maid in Bedlam
so sweetly for to sing.
Her chains she rattled in her hand
and thus replied she,
I love my love because I know
my love loves me.

O cruel were his parents
who sent my love to sea
and cruel was the galleon
that bore my love from me.
Yet I love his parents since they're his,
although they've ruined me.
I love my love because I know
my love loves me.

With straw I weave a garland
I'll weave it very fine
with roses, daisies, lilies
I'll mix the eglantine
and I'll present it to my love
when he returns from sea for
I love my love because I know
my love loves me.

Just as she there sat weeping,
her love he came on land.
Then hearing she was in Bedlam,
he ran straight out of hand.
He flew into her snow-white arms
and thus replied he,
I love my love because I know
my love loves me.

So now these two are married
and happy may they be
like turtle doves together
in love and unity.
All pretty maids with patience wait
that have got loves at sea.
I love my love because I know
my love loves me.

Demetrius--that brings this one to mind.

Tom of Bedlam

To find my Tom of Bedlam
Ten thousand years I'd travel
Mad Maudlin goes on dirty toes
To save me shoes from gravel

Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boys,
bedlam boys are bonny
For they all go bare and they live by the air
And they want no drink nor money

I now repent that ever
Poor Tom was so disdain-ed
My wits are tossed and semi-crossed
Which makes me thus go chain-ed

Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boys,
bedlam boys are bonny
For they all go bare and they live by the air
And they want no drink nor money

I went to Pluto's kitchen
To beg some food one morning
There I got souls spiking hot
While on the spit a-turning

Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boys,
bedlam boys are bonny
for they all go bare and they live by the air
and they want no drink nor money

There I took up a caldron
Where I boiled ten thousand harlots
Though still a-flame I drank the same
With a health to all such varlets

Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boys,
Bedlam boys are bonny,
For they all go bare and they live by the air
And they want no drink nor money

Me staff has murdered giants
Me bag a long knife carries
To cut mince pies from children's thighs
With which to feed the faeries

Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonny
For they all go bare and they live by the air
And they want no drink nor money

No gypsy, slut, or doxie
Shall win me mad Tom from me
I'll weep all night with the stars I'll fight
The fray shall well become me

Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonny
For they all go bare and they live by the air
And they want no drink nor money

So drink to Tom of Bedlam
Fill all the seas and barrels
I'll drink it all well brewed with gall
And maudlin drunk I'll quarrel

Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonny
For they all go bare and they live by the air
And they want no drink nor money

Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonny
For they all go bare and they live by the air
And they want no drink nor money


~~Empty Hats (as sung by Loony Lucy), Tom of Bedlam
Show me your tan lines..and I'll show you mine!

I just want to be Layla.....

Captain Jack Wolfe

No one knows what it's like to be the bad man
To be the sad man behind blue eyes
No one knows what it's like
To be hated, to be fated to telling only lies

But my dreams, they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance that's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings like I do and I blame you!
No one bites back as hard on their anger
None of my pain and woe can show through

But my dreams, they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours only lonely
My love is vengeance, that's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

And If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
And If I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like to be the bad man
To be the sad man behind blue eyes

the only song stuck in my head lately has been the Imperial March from Star Wars... I wonder what that means?

Hello, hello, hello
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone at home?

Come on, come on down,
I hear you're feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.

Relax, relax, relax
I need some information first.
Just the basic facts.
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying.

When I was a child, I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I've got that feeling once again.
I can't explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.

I have become comfortably numb.

[guitar solo]

I have become comfortably numb.

OK, OK, OK
Just a little pin prick.
There'll be no more, aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh,
But you may feel a little sick.

Can you stand up, stand up, stand up.
I do believe it's working good.
That'll keep you going for the show.
Come on, it's time to go.

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying.

When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look, but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child has grown, the dream is gone.

I have become comfortably numb.

Heard this on my way through Dallas today, headed north from one of the best Faire weekends of all time!!!  Hadn't been out two steppin' in a really long time, and it actually sounds kinda fun... (big hair not withstanding!) :D

Turn It Loose by The Judds

Some call it country with a little bit of rhythm and blues
And when the boys start rockin'
There's a beat that you just can't lose
Where it's gonna take us nobody knows
It sure feels good to the body and soul

Chorus:
I love the slide of a steel guitar
I love the moan of an old blues harp
I love the shake of a tambourine
I love the bass when it's low and mean
So put on your shoutin' shoes
And turn it loose
Turn it loose

You feel like dancin' and you just can't stay in your seat
Your knees start knockin'
And you can't help stompin' your feet
Before you even know it you'll be singin' along
Makes me wanna stay hear all night long

Chorus:
I love the slide of a steel guitar
I love the moan of an old blues harp
I love the shake of a tambourine
I love the bass when it's low and mean
So put on your shoutin' shoes
And turn it loose
Turn it loose

Chorus:
I love the slide of a steel guitar
I love the moan of an old blues harp
I love the shake of a tambourine
I love the bass when it's low and mean
So put on your shoutin' shoes
And turn it loose
Turn it loose

Turn it loose
Everybody put on your shoutin' shoes and turn it loose
Grab your shoutin' shoes and turn it loose

Welsh Wench- that would have reminded me of Lucy in the Sky, but instead this one-


Here come old flattop, he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball, he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please

He wear no shoeshine, he got toe-jam football
He got monkey finger, he shoot coca-cola
He say "I know you, you know me"
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
Come together right now over me

He bag production, he got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard, he one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease
Come together right now over me

[Right!
Come, oh, come, come, come.]

He roller-coaster, he got early warning
He got muddy water, he one mojo filter
He say "One and one and one is three"
Got to be good-looking cos he's so hard to see
Come together right now over me

Demetrius--this one has been going through my mind the past few days. My son drove up today and he had it on his CD player...I can't escape it.

Do you remember the 21st night of September?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away

Our hearts were ringing
In the key that our souls were singing
As we danced in the night,
Remember how the stars stole the night away

Ba de ya - say that you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day

My thoughts are with you
Holding hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love,
Remember how we knew love was here to stay

Now December found the love that we shared in September.
Only blue talk and love,
Remember the true love we share today

Ba de ya - say that you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - golden dreams were shiny days

Some bells were ringing
Our souls were singing
Do you remember,never a cloudy day?

Ba de ya - say that you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - golden dreams were shiny days


~~Earth, Wind and Fire, September

Rapier Half-Wit

Now there you go again
You say you want your freedom
Who am I to keep you down...down
It's only right that you should
Play it the way that you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat, drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering
What you had, And what you lost
Ooooh, say what you had, you know what you lost

Chorus:
Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
They say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You will know

Here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself, yeah
It's only me who wants to wrap around your dreams and
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Loneliness, like a heartbeat, drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering
What you had, And what you lost
Oooh, says what you had, you know what you lost

Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
They say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know

Oh thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
They say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You'll know
You will know
Oh oh oh you'll know

Two days in a row I heard Layla on the radio while driving home from work, and it's what my cell phone plays when I get a call, so it's been running around in my head for the past couple of days.

And that's a good thing.    ;D

After a conversation last night this has been stuck in my head

Baby I've been drifting away
Dreaming all day
Of holdng you
Touching you
The only thing I want to do
Is be with you
As close to you
As I can be

Let's make love
All night long
Until all our strength is gone
Hold on tight
Just let go
I want to feel you in my soul
Until the sun comes up
Let's make love
Oh, baby

Do you know what you do to me
Everything inside of me
Is wanting you
And needing you
I'm so in love with you
Look in my eyes
Let's get lost tonight
In each other

Let's make love
All night long
Until all our strength is gone
Hold on tight
Just let go
I want to feel you in my soul
Until the sun comes up
Let's make love

Let's make love
All night long
Until all our strength is gone
Hold on tight
Just let go
I want to feel you in my soul
Until the sun comes up
Oh, until the sun comes up
Let's make love

Oh baby, let's make love
All night long
All night long
Let's make love
