The Smiths - What Difference Does It Make? 4 months ago

All men have secrets and here is mine
So let it be known
For we have been through hell and high tide
I think I can rely on you …
And yet you start to recoil
Heavy words are so lightly thrown
But still I’d leap in front of a flying bullet for you

So, what difference does it make ?
So, what difference does it make ?
It makes none
But now you have gone
And you must be looking very old tonight

The devil will find work for idle hands to do
I stole and I lied, and why ?
Because you asked me to !
But now you make me feel so ashamed
Because I’ve only got two hands
Well, I’m still fond of you, oh-ho-oh

So, what difference does it make ?
Oh, what difference does it make ?
Oh, it makes none
But now you have gone
And your prejudice won’t keep you warm tonight

Oh, the devil will find work for idle hands to do
I stole, and then I lied
Just because you asked me to
But now you know the truth about me
You won’t see me anymore
Well, I’m still fond of you, oh-ho-oh

But no more apologies
No more, no more apologies
Oh, I’m too tired
I’m so sick and tired
And I’m feeling very sick and ill today
But I’m still fond of you, oh-ho-oh

Oh, my sacred one …
Oh …



The Beatles - Nowhere Man 4 months ago

He’s a real nowhere man,
Sitting in his nowhere land,
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody.
Doesn’t have a point of view,
Knows not where he’s going to,
Isn’t he a bit like you and me?

Nowhere man please listen,
You don’t know what you’re missing,
Nowhere man, the world is at your command.
He’s as blind as he can be,
Just sees what he wants to see,
Nowhere man can you see me at all?

Nowhere man don’t worry,
Take your time, don’t hurry,
Leave it all till somebody else,
Lends you a hand.
Doesn’t have a point of view,
Knows not where he’s going to,
Isn’t he a bit like you and me?

Nowhere man please listen,
You don’t know what you’re missing,
Nowhere man, the world is at your command.
He’s a real nowhere man,
Sitting in his nowhere land,
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody.
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody.
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody



The Beatles - Within You Without You 4 months ago

We were talking about the space between us all
And the people who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion
Never glimpse the truth, then it’s far too late
When they pass away

We were talking about the love we all could share
When we find it
To try our best to hold it there
With our love
With our love, we could save the world
If they only knew

Try to realize it’s all within yourself
No one else can make you change
And to see you’re really only very small
And life goes on within you and without you

We were talking about the love that’s gone so cold
And the people who gain the world and lose their soul
They don’t know – they can’t see
Are you one of them?

When you’ve seen beyond yourself
Then you may find peace of mind is waiting there
And the time will come when you see we’re all one
And life goes on within you and without you

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 play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
No, no!

I’ll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I’ll get all my papers and smile at the sky
Though I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do ya?

There’s nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Are now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

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
Don’t get fooled again
No, no!

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they’d be singing so happily,
joyfully, playfully watching me.

But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
clinical, intellectual, cynical.

There are times when all the world’s asleep,
the questions run too deep
for such a simple man.

Won’t you please, please tell me what we’ve learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am.

Now watch what you say or they’ll be calling you a radical,
liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won’t you sign up your name, we’d like to feel you’re
acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable!

At night, when all the world’s asleep,
the questions run so deep
for such a simple man.

Won’t you please, please tell me what we’ve learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am.

Hey you, yeah you

Sometimes I think this woman is kinda hot
Sometimes I think this woman is sometimes not
Puts me down, fool me around
Why she do it to me
Out for satisfaction
Any piece of action
That ain’t the way it should be

She needs lovin’
Knows I’m the man
She’s gotta see
Pours my beer
Licks my ear
Brings out the devil in me
Hell ain’t a bad place to be

Spends my money
Drinks my booze
Stays out every night
But I got to thinkin’, hey just a minute
Somethin’ ain’t right
All this disillusions and confusion
Make me wanna cry
Oh the shame you, playin’ your games
Tellin’ me those lies

Don’t mind her playin’ demon
Long as it’s with me
If this is hell
Then you could say
It’s heavenly
Hell ain’t a bad place to be

Late at night
Turns down the light
Closes up on me
Opens my heart
Tears me apart
Brings out the devil in me

Hell ain’t no bad place to be
I said hell ain’t no bad place to be
Hell ain’t no bad place to be
Hell ain’t no bad place to be

I’ve been drivin’ all night, my hand’s wet on the wheel
There’s a voice in my head that drives my heel
It’s my baby callin’, says I need you here
And it’s a half past four and I’m shiftin’ gear
When she is lonely and the longing gets too much
She sends a cable comin’ in from above
Don’t need no phone at all
We’ve got a thing that’s called Radar Love
We’ve got a wave in the air, Radar Love
The radio is playing some forgotten song
Brenda Lee’s comin’ on strong
The road has got me hypnotized
And I’m speedin’ into a new sunrise
When I get lonely and I’m sure I’ve had enough
She sends her comfort comin’ in from above
We don’t need no letter at all
We’ve got a thing that’s called Radar Love
We’ve got a light in the sky
No more speed, I’m almost there
Gotta keep cool now, gotta take care
Last car to pass, here I go
And the line of cars drove down real slow
And the radio played that forgotten song
Brenda Lee’s comin’ on strong
And the newsman sang his same song
Oh one more radar lover gone
When I get lonely and I’m sure I’ve had enough
She sents her comfort comin’ in from above
We don’t need no letter at all
We’ve got a thing that’s called Radar Love
We’ve got a light in the sky
We’ve got a thing that’s called Radar Love
We’ve got a thing that’s called Radar Love

Hey, hey, mama, what’s the matter here?
Hey, hey, mama, what’s the matter here?
You didn’t have to tell me that you love me so.
You didn’t have to love me, mama, let me go.
Hey, hey, mama, what’s the matter here?
You didn’t have to make me a total disgrace.
You didn’t have to leave me with that beer in my face.
Hey, hey, mama, what’s the matter here?
That’s alright, it’s awful dog-gone clear.

Hey, hey, baby, why you treat me mean?
Hey, hey, baby, why you treat me mean?
You didn’t have to crucify me like you did.
You didn’t have to tell me I was just your kid.
Hey, hey, mama, why’d you treat me mean?
You didn’t have say you’d always be by my side.
You didn’t have to tell me you’d be my blushin’ bride.
Hey, hey, mama, why you treat me mean?
But that’s alright, I know your sister, too.

You didn’t have to tell me that you love me so.
You didn’t have to leave me, mama, let me go.
Hey, hey, mama, what is wrong with you?
You didn’t have to leave me like a total disgrace.
You didn’t have to leave me with that beer on my face.
Hey, hey, mama, what is wrong with you?
But that’s alright, I’d be the same way, too.

You didn’t have to crucify me like you did.
You didn’t have to tell me I was just your kid.
Hey, hey, mama, what’s the matter here?
You didn’t have to tell me you would be my own.
You didn’t have to tell me, baby, let me go.
Hey, hey, mama, what is wrong with you?
That’s alright, I know your sister, too.
What’s the matter with you, mama?

I just got your message baby,
So sad to see you fade away.
What in the world is this feeling?
To catch a breath and leave me reeling,
It’ll get you in the end, its god’s revenge.

Oh I know I should come clean,
But I prefer to deceive.
Everyday I walk alone,
And pray that god won’t see me.

I know it’s wrong, I know it’s wrong.
Tell me why is it I’m digging your scene?
I know I’ll die baby.

They put you in a home to fill in,
But I wouldn’t call that living.
I’m like a boy among man.
I’d like a permanent friend.

I’d like to think that I was just myself again.
Why is it I’m digging your scene?
I know I’ll die baby.

I just got your message baby,

I know I’ll die baby.

Oh come home baby, come on angel.

You’ve never had it so good
The favourite phrase of those who’ve always had it better
Burn it up!
Realise the altogether

Bring it down
Burn together
The altogether’s an insane thing, insane thing
Bring it down
All together
The altogether’s an insane thing, insane thing

You’ve never had it so good
The favourite phrase of those who’ve always had it better
You never had so much is the cry
Of those who’ve always had much more, much more than you & I

Burn brother burn
Fight together
This altogether’s an insane thing, insane thing
Bring it down
All together
The altogether’s an insane thing, insane thing

Burn
Insane thing, insane thing
Insane thing, insane thing

Burn brother burn
Let’s burn Together
Burn brother burn
Burn, burn, burn
This insane thing, insane thing
Burn brother burn
Burn sister burn

Spurn the lie
They use to justify
This insanity!
The inhumanity!
Of this insane thing

Burn brother burn
Burn, burn, burn
Some’s got it easy
Bring it down
The altogether
Keeps getting better for the few
Who’ve got it good to start with …
