After watching Harlem Shake videos on You tube that song is in my head and not really sure what the lyrics are.

"What have I become,
My sweetest friend?
Everyone I know,
Goes away in the end.
You could have it all:
My empire of dirt.
I will let you down.
I will make you hurt..."
-Hurt
-Nine Inch Nails

...And it's a battered old suitcase to a hotel someplace
And a wound that will never heal
No prima donna, the perfume is on
An old shirt that is stained with blood and whiskey
And goodnight to the street sweepers
The night watchman flame keepers and goodnight to Matilda too

Some people take a beautiful girl
And hide her away form the rest of the world
But I want to be the one who walks in the sun

Girls Just Want to Have Fun - Cyndi Lauper

Stuck between a rock and a hard place.


Rolling Stones.

I look like Jesus, so they say,
But Mr. Jesus is very far away.

-Kiss Me Son of God
-They Might Be Giants

You got to know when to hold them,
Know when to fold them,
Know when to walk away,
Know when to run;
You never count your money,
When you're sitting at the table,
There'll be time enough for counting,
When the dealing's done...

-Kenny Rogers, The Gambler.

Stuck inside these four walls
Sent inside forever

Band on the Run, Paul McCartney

True, it may seem like a stretch,
But it's thoughts like these that catch
My troubled head when you're away
And I am missing you to death.
-Such Great Heights
-Iron and Wine version

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

Close To You, The Carpenters

I got that song scrambled one time: "Why do birds fall out of the sky/every time you walk by..."

"I gets weary and sick o' tryin'. I'm tired o' livin' and scared o' dyin'..." "Ol' Man River" from Showboat

'cos you're the greatest motherf**ker that I'm ever gonna meet
from the top of your head down to the tips of the toes on your feet
so I'll go ahead and love you while it's still a crime
and don't forget, you could be laughing sixty-five per cent more of the time
you could be laughing sixty-three per cent more of the time
you could be laughing twenty-five per cent more of the time

John Grant - GMF

Sung to my girlfriend who has just been fired, again.

Lyrics reversed to fit better.

Everything you know is wrong,
Black is white, up is down and short is long,
And everything that you thought was just so important doesn't matter...

-By Weird Al Yankovic

Trouble - Coldplay

Oh, no, I see
A spider web, it's tangled up with me,
And I lost my head,
The thought of all the stupid things I'd said,

Oh, no, what's this?
A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle,
So I turned to run,
The thought of all the stupid things I've done,

And I never meant to cause you trouble,
And I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well, if I ever caused you trouble,
Oh no, I never meant to do you harm.

Oh, no, I see
A spider web, and it's me in the middle,
So I twist and turn,
Here am I in my little bubble,
Singing out...

I never meant to cause you trouble,
And I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well, if I ever caused you trouble,
Oh, no, I never meant to do you harm.

They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me.

I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawlin' out as I was a-crawlin' in
I got up so tight I couldn't unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

Have you ever buried your face in your hands
'cause no one around you understands
Or has the slightest idea what it is that makes you be
Have you ever felt like there was more
Like someone else was keeping score
And what could make you whole was simply out of reach, well, I know

Someday, I'll try again
And not pretend, this time forever
Someday, I'll get it straight
But not today, have you ever

-Have you ever
-Offspring
