Paradise City...



Slash feat. Fergie and Cypress Hill (youtube)

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home (oh, won't you please take me home?)
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home (oh, won't you please take me home?)
Just an urchin living under the street
I'm a hard case that's tough to beat
I'm your charity case so buy me something to eat
I'll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line

Rags to riches or so they say
You gotta keep pushing for the fortune and fame
You know it's, it's all a gamble when it's just a game
You treat it like a capital crime
Everybody's doing their time

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home, yeah, yeah?
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home

Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber
Why I'm here, I can't quite remember
The surgeon general says it's hazardous to breathe
I'd have another cigarette but I can't see
Tell me who ya gonna believe

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah, yeah
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home, yeah?
So far away, so far away
So far away, so far away

Captain America's been torn apart
Now he's a court jester with a broken heart
He said, turn me around and take me back to the start
I must be losing my mind, are you blind?
I've seen it all a million times

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah, yeah!
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home?

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah, yeah!
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home, home

Oh, I want to go, I want to know
Oh, won't you please take me home?
I want to see how good it can be
Oh, won't you please take me home?

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home?

Take me down
Oh, won't you please take me home?
I want to see how good it can be
Oh, won't you please take me home?
I want to see how good it can be
Oh, oh take me home

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home?
I want to know, I want to know
Oh, won't you please take me home?
Yeah, baby!

Society...



Eddie Vedder (youtube)

Oh, it's a mystery to me
We have a greed with which we have agreed
And you think you have to want more than you need
Until you have it all you won't be free

Society, you're a crazy breed
Hope you're not lonely without me...

When you want more than you have
You think you need...
And when you think more than you want
Your thoughts begin to bleed
I think I need to find a bigger place
Because when you have more than you think
You need more space

Society, you're a crazy breed
Hope you're not lonely without me...
Society, crazy indeed
Hope you're not lonely without me...

There's those thinking, more-or-less, less is more
But if less is more, how you keeping score?
Means for every point you make, your level drops
Kinda like you're starting from the top
You can't do that...

Society, you're a crazy breed
Hope you're not lonely without me...
Society, crazy indeed
Hope you're not lonely without me...

Society, have mercy on me
Hope you're not angry if I disagree...
Society, crazy indeed
Hope you're not lonely without me...

Who Wants To Live Forever?


Queen (youtube)

There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams
Yet slips away from us

Who wants to live forever?
Who wants to live forever?

There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment
Set aside for us

Who wants to live forever?
Who wants to live forever?

Who dares to love forever?
When love must die

But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever?
Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today

Who waits forever anyway?

Where is the LOVE ?



The Black Eyed Peas (youtube)

Where Is The Love
What's wrong with the world, mama?
People living like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma

Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here living
In the USA, the big CIA
The Bloods and The Crips and the KKK

But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate, yeah

Badness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all

People killing, people dying
Children hurt and you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach?
And would you turn the other cheek?

Father, Father, Father, help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questioning:
Where's the love?

Where's the love?
Where's the love?
Where's the love, the love, the love?

It just ain't the same
Always in change
New days are strange
Is the world insane?

If love and peace is so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong?
Nations dropping bombs
Chemical gasses filling lungs of little ones
With ongoing suffering as the youth die young
So ask yourself:
Is the loving really gone?
So I could ask myself:
Really what is going wrong?

In this world that we living in
People keep on giving in
Making wrong decisions
Only visions of them dividends

Not respecting each other
Deny the brother
A war is going on
But the reason's undercover

The truth is kept secret
It's swept under the rug
If you never know truth
Then you never know love

Where's the love, y'all, come on

Where's the truth, y'all, come on

Where's the love, y'all

People killing, people dying
Children hurt and you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach?
And would you turn the other cheek?

Father, Father, Father, help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questioning:
Where's the love?

Where's the love?
Where's the love?
Where's the love?
The love, the love

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
As I'm getting older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money making
Selfishness got us following our wrong direction

Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema

Yo', whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness in equality
Instead in spreading love we spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feeling under
Gotta keep my faith alive till love is found
Then ask yourself...

Where's the love?
Where's the love?
Where's the love?
Where's the love?
