R.E.M. - IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT 12:58 am
That's great, it starts with an earthquake Birds and snakes, an aeroplane, and Lenny Bruce is not afraid
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn World serves its own needs, don't misserve your own needs Feed it up a knock, speed, grunt, no, strength, The ladder starts to clatter with a fear of height, down, height Wire in a fire, represent the seven games And a government for hire and a combat site Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry with the Furies breathing down your neck
Team by team, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped Look at that low plane, fine, then Uh oh, overflow, population, common group But it'll do, save yourself, serve yourself World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed Tell me with the Rapture and the reverent in the right, right You vitriolic, patriotic, slam fight, bright light Feeling pretty psyched
It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine
Six o'clock, T.V. hour, don't get caught in foreign tower Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn Lock him in uniform, book burning, bloodletting Every motive escalate, automotive incinerate Light a candle, light a motive, step down, step down Watch your heel crush, crush, uh oh This means no fear, cavalier, renegade and steering clear A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline
It's the end of the world as we know it (I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it (I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (It's time I had some time alone) I feel fine (I feel fine)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (It's time I had some time alone)
The other night I dreamt a nice continental drift divide Mountains sit in a line, Leonard Bernstein Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs Birthday party, cheesecake, jellybean, boom You symbiotic, patriotic, slam but neck, right? Right!
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (It's time I had some time alone)

CLASH - ROCK THE CASBAH 12:50 am
Now, the king told the boogie men You have to let that raga drop The oil down the desert way Has been shakin' to the top
The sheik, he drove his Cadillac He went a-cruisin' down the ville The muezzin was a-standin' On the radiator grille
The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
By order of the prophet We ban that boogie sound Degenerate the faithful With that crazy Casbah sound
But the Bedouin they brought out The electric camel drum The local guitar picker Got his guitar picking thumb As soon as the shareef Had cleared the square They began to wail
The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
Now over at the temple Ooh, they really pack 'em in The in-crowd say it's cool To dig this chanting thing
But as the wind changed direction And the temple band took five The crowd caught a whiff Of that crazy Casbah jive
The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
The king called up his jet fighters He said, "You better earn your pay Drop your bombs between the minarets Down the Casbah way"
As soon as the shareef Was chauffeured outta there The jet pilots tuned to The cockpit radio blare As soon as the shareef Was outta their hair The jet pilots wailed
The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
The shareef don't like it (He thinks it's not kosher) Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
The shareef don't like it (Fundamentally can't take it) Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
The shareef don't like it (You know he really hates it) Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah |

ALBERT HAMMOND - IT NEVER RAINS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA 12:47 am
Got on board a westbound seven forty seven Didn't think before deciding what to do Ooh, that talk of opportunities, TV breaks and movies Rang true, sure rang true
(CHORUS:) Seems it never rains in southern California Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before It never rains in California, but girl don't they warn ya It pours, man it pours
Will you tell the folks back home I nearly made it Had offers but don't know which one to take Please don't tell 'em how you found me Don't tell 'em how you found me Gimme a break, give me a break
CHORUS
(Bridge:) Out of work, I'm out of my head Out of self respect, I'm out of bread I'm underloved, I'm underfed, I wanna go home It never rains in California, but girl don't they warn ya It pours, man it pours
CHORUS |

10000 MANIACS - BECAUSE THE NIGHT 12:39 am
Take me now, baby, here as I am Hold me close, and try and understand Desire is hunger is the fire I breathe Love is a banquet on which we feed
Come on now, try and understand The way I feel under your command Take my hand, as the sun descends They can't hurt you now Can't hurt you now Can't hurt you now
Because the night belongs to lovers Because the night belongs to us Because the night belongs to lovers Because the night belongs to us
Have I a doubt, baby, when I'm alone Love is a ring, a telephone Love is an angel, disguised as lust Here in our beds 'til the morning comes
Come on now, try and understand The way I feel under your command Take my hand, as the sun descends They can't hurt you now Can't hurt you now Can't hurt you now
Because the night belongs to lovers Because the night belongs to us Because the night belongs to lovers Because the night belongs to us
With love we sleep, With doubt the vicious circle turns, and burns Without you, oh I cannot live, Forgive the yearning burning I believe it's time to heal to feel, So take me now Take me now Take me now
Because the night belongs to lovers Because the night belongs to us Because the night belongs to lovers Because the night belongs to us |

GREG KIHN BAND - THE BREAKUP SONG (THEY DON'T WRITE 'EM) 12:25 am
We had broken up for good just an hour before Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh Now I'm staring at the bodies as there's dancin' 'cross the floor Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh And then the band slowed the tempo and the music gets me down Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh It was the same old song with the melancholy sound Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh
They don't write 'em like that anymore They just don't write 'em like that anymore
We'd been living together for a million years Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh But now it feel so strange (out in the atmospheres?) Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh Now I'm staring at the bodies as they dancin' so slow
Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh
They don't write 'em like that anymore They just don't write 'em like that anymore
Now I wind up staring at an empty glass Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh Cause its so easy to say that you'll forget your past Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh
They don't write 'em like that anymore, no! They just don't write 'em like that anymore
They don't write 'em like that anymore They just don't write 'em like that anymore |

THOMAS DOLBY - SHE BLINDED ME WITH SCIENCE 12:18 am
"Yes, but as a known scientist it would be surprising if the girl blinded ME with science... I know.... I know..."
Mmmmmm it's poetry in motion When she turned her eyes to me As deep as any ocean Sweet as any harmony She blinded me with science And failed me in geometry
When she's dancing next to me "Blinding me with science - science," "Science," I can hear machinery "Blinding me with science - science!" "Science! Sci|Sci|Science!"
HA - it's poetry in motion Now she's making love to me The spheres are in commotion The elements in harmony She blinded me with science "She blinded me with science," And hit me with technology
When I'm dancing close to her "Science," I can smell the chemicals "Blinding me with science - science!" "Science!"
HA! It's poetry in motion Now she's making love to me The spheres are in commotion The elements in harmony She blinded me with science "She blinded me with science!" And hit me with technology
"Good heavens, Miss Sakamoto - you're beautiful!" I - I don't believe it! There she goes again! She's tidied up, and I can't find anything! All my tubes and wires And careful notes And antiquated notions But! - it's poetry in motion When she turned her eyes to me As deep as any ocean Sweet as any harmony She blinded me with science "She blinded me with - with science!" She blinded me with - |

STYX - COME SAIL AWAY 12:14 am
I'm sailing away, set an open course for the Virgin Sea 'Cause I've got to be free, free to face the life that's ahead of me On board, I'm the captain, so climb aboard We'll search for tomorrow on every shore And I'll try, oh Lord, I'll try To carry on
I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory Some happy, some sad I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had We lived happily forever, so the story goes But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold But we'll try best that we can to carry on
A gathering of angels appeared above my head They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said They said come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me lads Come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me
I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies Singing come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me Come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me (repeat and fade...) |
