    I Can't See Your Face In My Mind ,The Doors

    I can't seem to find the right lie
    I can't seem to find the right lie
    Insanity's horse
    Adorns the sky
    Can't seem to find the right lie

    Carnival dogs
    Consume the lines
    Can't see your face
    In my mind

    dedicated to the daily news cycle.

    Death Of a Clown by Dave Davies

    My makeup is dry and it cracks 'round my chin
    I'm drowning my sorrows in whisky and gin
    The lion tamer's whip doesn't crack anymore
    The lions won't bite and the tigers won't roar

    So let's go and drink to the death of a clown

    Won't someone help me to break up this crown?
    Let's all drink to the death of a clown

    The old fortune teller lies dead on the floor
    Nobody needs fortunes told anymore
    The trainer of insects is crouched on his knees
    And frantically looking for runaway fleas

    Let's all drink to the death of a clown

    So won't someone help me to break up this crown?
    Let's all drink to the death of a clown

    Harold Land with a wave of his hand
    said goodbye to all that
    He paid his bills, stopped the milk
    And then put on his hat
    He tried to say his last farewells
    As quickly as he could
    Promising that he would return
    But doubted that he would

    Now he's marching soldiers in the rain
    As on to war they rode
    A long thin line of human mind
    Damnation as their load
    In the mud in coldness dark
    He'd shiver out his fear
    What disappointing sights he'd seen
    Instead of one's so dear

    He's going home to the land he loved so well
    He fought for two whole years he never fell
    He's going home

    Harold Land with a wave of his hand
    Stood sadly on the stage
    Clutching red ribbons from a badge
    But he didn't look his age
    Only two years had passed between
    His leaving home and back
    He had lost his love and youth
    While leading the attack

    In conversation it could be said
    Well after war your heart is dead
    And it's not hard to understand
    There is no heart in Harold Land.

    The Who

    "Behind Blue Eyes"

    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
    Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles

    Jackson Browne Lyrics
    "Lives In The Balance"

    I've been waiting for something to happen
    For a week or a month or a year
    With the blood in the ink of the headlines
    And the sound of the crowd in my ear
    You might ask what it takes to remember
    When you know that you've seen it before
    Where a government lies to a people
    And a country is drifting to war

    And there's a shadow on the faces
    Of the men who send the guns
    To the wars that are fought in places
    Where their business interest runs

    On the radio talk shows and the T.V.
    You hear one thing again and again
    How the U.S.A. stands for freedom
    And we come to the aid of a friend
    But who are the ones that we call our friends
    These governments killing their own?
    Or the people who finally can't take any more
    And they pick up a gun or a brick or a stone
    There are lives in the balance
    There are people under fire
    There are children at the cannons
    And there is blood on the wire

    There's a shadow on the faces
    Of the men who fan the flames
    Of the wars that are fought in places
    Where we can't even say the names

    They sell us the President the same way
    They sell us our clothes and our cars
    They sell us every thing from youth to religion
    The same time they sell us our wars
    I want to know who the men in the shadows are
    I want to hear somebody asking them why
    They can be counted on to tell us who our enemies are
    But they're never the ones to fight or to die
    And there are lives in the balance
    There are people under fire
    There are children at the cannons
    And there is blood on the wire
    Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles

    Whiskey Meyers

    My first rifle was a .243
    Papa gave Daddy and Daddy gave to me
    And they taught me how to shoot with a steady hand
    I guess that's something you don't understand

    Now I grew up on a prison farm
    Sneaking pulls of shine from a mason jar
    Used to go fishing out pickle creek dam
    But I guess that's something you don't understand

    Grandmas in the kitchen
    Papas drunk past dawn
    We sit out on the front porch
    Just a pickin' on the songs
    And there's blood on the table
    'Cause we work for what we have
    And I was raised in this land
    I guess that's something you don't understand

    I still fly that southern flag
    Whistling Dixieland enough to brag
    And I know all the words to simple man
    I guess that's something you don't understand

    I pledge my allegiance the original way
    Say Merry Christmas not Happy Holidays
    I can't change my ways I know who I am
    I guess that's something you don't understand

    Grandmas in the kitchen
    Papas drunk past dawn
    We sit out on the front porch
    Just a pickin' on the songs
    And there's blood on the table
    'Cause we work for what we have
    And I was raised in this land
    I guess that's something you don't understand

    They'll grind us up in a big machine
    They'll feed us all on the same beliefs
    Holy dollar and a credit card
    But we got a way of doing things
    And no bankers gonna steal from me
    They wanna tear it all apart

    Grandmas in the kitchen
    Papas drunk past dawn
    We sit out on the front porch
    Just a pickin' on the songs
    And there's a bible on the table
    'Cause he bleed for what we have
    And that's the ballad of a southern man
    I guess that's something you don't understand

    My first rifle was a .243
    Papa gave Daddy and Daddy gave to me
    If we knew what the hell we were doing, we wouldn't call it research would we.

    She's Not There
    The Zombies

    Well, no one told me about her (him ...)
    The way she lied
    Well, no one told me about her
    How many people cried
    But it's too late to say you're sorry
    How would I know, why should I care?
    Please don't bother trying to find her
    She's not there
    Well, let me tell you 'bout the way she looked
    The way she acts and the color of her hair
    Well, no one told me about her
    Though they all knew

    "Think For Yourself"

    I've got a word or two
    To say about the things that you do
    You're telling all those lies
    About the good things that we can have
    If we close our eyes

    Do what you want to do
    And go where you're going to
    Think for yourself
    Cos I won't be there with you

    I left you far behind
    The ruins of the life that you have in mind
    And though you still can't see
    I know your mind's made up
    You're gonna cause more misery

    Do what you want to do
    And go where you're going to
    Think for yourself
    Cos I won't be there with you

    Although your mind's opaque
    Try thinking more if just for your own sake
    The future still looks good
    And you've got time to rectify
    All the things that you should

    Do what you want to do
    And go where you're going to
    Think for yourself
    Cos I won't be there with you

    Dear Father - Yes

    Here are the books
    Of Luke
    You'll need them
    To open the seed
    To see what goes on in the world

    You're in my mind
    Catch the wind and hold on tight
    To what we'll find
    And hear what goes on in the world
    Here is all you see
    Everything is made for you
    From me

    If there's anything you'd like to say
    That could help me in any way
    Cause I've been waiting for so long for you to come along
    Help me on that day
    When you'd take over all the things Heaven has made for you
    Is there anything you think you should know?
    Is there anything before I go?

    Dear Father, I'm hungry, I'm cold
    Dear Father, feeling terribly old
    Dear Father, I don't think I can see
    I'm not feeling good like I think I should

    They're on their own
    Needing their face, a place
    Hope and mind a home
    To see what goes on in the world

    They're who you need
    To show them why they're wrong
    Oh why indeed
    We need to go on in the world
    Here is all you see
    Everything is made for you
    From me

    If there's any complication
    That you'd like to talk over with me about
    Cause I've been waiting for so long
    For you to come along
    We can work it all out
    When you take over all the things Heaven has made for you
    Is there anything you think you should know
    Is there anything before I go

    Dear Father, you must be putting me on
    Dear Father, cause most of their minds are gone
    Dear Father, they will not understand me
    I'm not feeling good like I think I should

    Dear Father, can I give it a miss
    Dear Father, cause I'm not ready for this
    Dear Father, I don't think I can see
    I'm not feeling good like I think I should

    Dear Father, won't you leave me alone
    Dear Father, won't you to let me go home
    Dear Father, I don't think I can see
    Dear Father, won't they crucify me
    Dear Father, I just couldn't do that
    Dear Father, cause that's not where it's at now...

    Benedictus - Strawbs


    The wanderer has far to go
    Humble must he constant be
    Where the paths of wisdom lead
    Distant is the shadow of the setting sun

    Bless the daytime
    Bless the night
    Bless the sun which gives us light
    Bless the thunder
    Bless the rain
    Bless all those who cause us pain

    Yellow stars may lead the way
    All diversions lead astray
    While his resolution holds
    Fortune and good will will surely follow him

    Bless the free man
    Bless the slave
    Bless the hero in his grave
    Bless the soldier
    Bless the saint
    Bless all those whose hearts grow faint

    Bless the daytime
    Bless the night
    Bless the sun which gives us light
    Bless the thunder
    Bless the rain
    Bless all those who cause us pain

    Cold hearted orb that rules the night,
    removes the colours from our sight.

    Red is grey and yellow white.

    But we decide which is right,
    and which is an illusion.

    "The Fool On The Hill"

    Day after day, alone on a hill
    The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
    But nobody wants to know him
    They can see that he's just a fool
    And he never gives an answer

    But the fool on the hill
    Sees the sun going down
    And the eyes in his head
    See the world spinning 'round

    Well on the way, head in a cloud
    The man of a thousand voices talking perfectly loud
    But nobody ever hears him
    Or the sound he appears to make
    And he never seems to notice

    But the fool on the hill
    Sees the sun going down
    And the eyes in his head
    See the world spinning 'round

    And nobody seems to like him
    They can tell what he wants to do
    And he never shows his feelings

    But the fool on the hill
    Sees the sun going down
    And the eyes in his head
    See the world spinning 'round

    He never listens to them
    He knows that they're the fools
    They don't like him

    The fool on the hill
    Sees the sun going down
    And the eyes in his head
    See the world spinning 'round

    Won't Get Fooled Again
    Pete Townshend

    We'll be fighting in the streets
    With our children at our feet
    And the morals that they worship will be gone

    And the men who spurred us on
    Sit in judgement of all wrong
    They decide and the shotgun sings the song

    I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
    Take a bow for the new revolution
    Smile and grin at the change all around
    Pick up my guitar and play
    Just like yesterday

    Then I'll get on my knees and pray
    We don't get fooled again

    The change, it had to come
    We knew it all along
    We were liberated from the fold, that's all
    And the world looks just the same
    And history ain't changed
    'Cause the banners, they are flown in the next war

    I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
    Take a bow for the new revolution
    Smile and grin at the change all around
    Pick up my guitar and…

    Would I Lie to You?

    Eurythmics

    Would I Lie To You?
    Would I lie to you?
    Would I lie to you honey?
    Now would I say something that wasn't true?
    I'm asking you sugar
    Would I lie to you?
    My friends, know what's in store.
    I won't be here anymore.
    I've packed my bags
    I've cleaned the floor.
    Watch me walkin'.
    Walkin' out the door.
    Believe me, I'll make it make it
    Believe me, I'll make it make it
    Would I lie to you?
    Would I lie to you honey?
    Now would I say something that wasn't true?
    I'm asking you sugar
    Would I lie to you?
    Tell you straight, no intervention.
    To your face, no deception.
    You're the biggest fake.
    That much is true.
    Had all I can take.
    Now I'm leaving you
    Believe me, I'll make it make it
    Believe me, I'll make it make it
    Would I lie to you?
    Would I lie to you honey?
    Now would I say something…
