"Yer favourite lyrics"

Yes, I've had a skin full and am feeling mightily sentimental and empathic, but let's have your favourite songs, or just parts of the lyrics that speak to you .....

Okey dokey.

*sways with drunken-ness*

"HIC"

Ozzy Osbourne- "Over The Mountain"

Over the mountain take me across the sky
Something in my vision, something deep inside
Where did I wander, where d'ya think I wandered to
I've seen life's magic astral plane I travel through

I heard them tell me that this land of dreams was now
I told them I had ridden shooting stars
And I said I'd show them how

Over and over always tried to get away
Living in a daydream only place I had to stay
Fever of a breakout burning in me miles wide
People around me talking to the walls inside

Don't need no astrology it's inside of you and me
You don't need a ticket to fly with me--I'm free

Over and under in between the ups and downs
Mind on a carpet magic ride goes round and round
Over the mountain kissing silver inlaid clouds
Watching my body disappear into the crowd

Don't need no astrology it's inside of you and me
You don't need a ticket to fly with me--I'm free

Dude (Looks Like a Lady):- Aerosmith



Cruised into a bar on the shore

Her picture graced the grime on the door

She a long lost love at first bite

Baby maybe you're wrong but you know that's alright

That's right



Backstage we're havin the time

Of our lives until somebody say

Forgive me if I seem out of line

Then she whipped out her gun

Tried to blow me away



Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady



So never judge a book by its cover

Or who you gonna love by your lover

Love put me wise to her love in disguise

She had the body of a venus

Lord, imagine my surprise



Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady



Baby let me follow you down

Let me take a peek dear

Baby let me follow you down

Do me, do me, do me, all night

Baby let me follow you down

Turn the other cheek dear

Baby let me follow you down

Do me, do me, do me, sue me



What a funky lady

She like it like it like it like that

He was a lady

Rainbow- "A Light In the Black" (Blackmore/Carey/Dio)

Can't forget his face
What a lonely place
Has he really let us go?
All the time that's lost
What's the final cost
Will I really get away?
All my life it seems
Just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star
Can't believe it all
Did he really fall
What to do now I don't know

Something's called me back
There's a light in the black
Am I ready to go?
I'm coming home

Breathed the air before
Heard the thunder roar
Never knew it was for me
Always looking down
Lost and never found
Eyes that look but not to see
All my life it seems
Just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star
Like an open door
That you've passed before
But you've never had the key

Something's calling me back
There's a light in the black
Am I ready to go?

I'm coming home, I'm coming home, yeah
I'm going back to my home
I'm going home, home, home
Going home, home, home
I'm coming back
Don't forget his face
What a lonely place
Did he really let us go
All the time that's lost
What's the final cost
Will I really get away?
All my life it seems
Just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star

Can't believe it all
Did he really fall
What to do now, well I don't know

Something's calling me back
Like a light in the black
Yes, I’m ready to go
I'm coming home, home, yeah

I've got my way back home
To the sky
There in the sky
I see your star

watched from the window, with a red mosquito
i was not allowed to leave the room
i saw the sun go down, and now it's coming up
somewhere in the time between
i was bitten, must have been the devil
he was just paying me...
a little visit, reminding me of his presence
letting me know, he's a-waiting... oh
red man's your neighbor, call it behavior
while you're climbing up slippery hills
two steps ahead of him, punctures in your neck
hovering just above your bed
hovering just above your bed
i was bitten, must have been the devil
he was just paying me...
a little visit, reminding me of his presence
and letting me know, he's a'waiting, he's a'waiting...
up there... yeah
if i had known then what i know now...
if i had known then what i know now...
if i had known then what i know now...
if i had known then what i know now...

Iron Maiden- "Iron Maiden" (Steve Harris)

Won't you come into my room, I wanna show you all my wares.
I just want to see your blood, I just want to stand and stare.
See the blood begin to flow as it falls upon the floor.
Iron Maiden can't be fought, Iron Maiden can't be sought.

Oh Well, wherever, wherever you are,
Iron Maiden's gonna get you, no matter how far.
See the blood flow watching it shed up above my head.
Iron Maiden wants you for dead.

Believe Me


Ohh yeah
Mmmm
Yeah, oh yeah, oh oh
Oh yeah
I was alone just because
I wasn't like them
They made me, excluded so cruel, and
Then there was you
You stood by me, ignored their words
You became, my best friend so true, oh yeah
You believed in me
When no one else did
You gave me the strength to
Move on, my friend
You will always be
The one I remember
To give my thanks to
For my success
They just did not understand
What I was going through
My situation, they didn't care, no
You tried to take a stand for me
When I just could not
Take it any longer
You believed in me
When no one else did
You gave me the strength to
Move on, my friend
You will always be
The one I remember
To give my thanks to
For my success
I ohh, as I look back
I can see how childish they were
And you ohh, you showed me that
We were so much more than they were
I hope they can see their mistakes now
And not do it to another
But if they don't, I hope that person
Finds someone like you
Ohh...
You believed in me
When no one else did
Yeah ohh, no, ohh yeah, oh
You will always be
The one I remember
Will always be the one I remember, oh no
For my success
For my, for my success, ohh
You believed in me
When no one else did, ohh yeah
Ohh, the strength to move on, yeah
The one I remember, oh
With all my heart, yeah

Deep Purple- "High Ball Shooter"

(Blackmore/Coverdale/Hughes/Lord/Paice)

Well I'm a rock and roll preacher
Not a Sunday school teacher
You ain't no shady lady
But I love the way you strut your stuff
You're a snow queen looking mean
Tryin' to make it on the scene
I guess you love it
'Cause I always see you hanging' around

You're a high ball shooter
You make it easy to see
High ball shooter
You sure ripped the low ones off me

A Magnet brought you to me
Told me your name was Jo
You said you liked my music
And you really did enjoy the show
Now I wanna play piano
But my fingers don't agree
They're busy on you woman
And I feel your fingers workin' on me

You're a high ball shooter
You make it easy to see
High ball shooter
You sure ripped the low ones off me

It's time to leave you honey
I know you're feeling sad
Don't you cry now baby
You know that only makes me mad
I see you everywhere I go
Every town and place
I can't recall your name
But I know I won't forget your sweet face

You're a high ball shooter
You make it easy to see
High ball shooter
You sure ripped the low ones off me
'Cause you're a high ball shooter
You make it easy to see
High ball shooter
You sure ripped the low ones off me

Oh, oh, ooh

I don't need a man doing everything he can
And giving up his life and everything he has to please me
(Oh, oh, oh)
I don't like the kinda guy who does the can and
Loves you for the sake in the heat of a one night stand

I never met a man as perfect as you
No one makes me feel the way that you do
I really, really need it, when I say

If you want it come and get it
(You know that I'll be waiting)
If you need it like I need it
(Don't go hesitating)
Don't regret it, don't forget it
(Baby let me take you) Oh
Somewhere where only this girl's allowed

I don't like a man who drives a fast car
To make you think they're bigger baby than they really are
(Oh, oh, oh)
I don't need a man who hasn't got a job
Who sits watching telly with his belly and a bottle of rum (Oh yeah)
(Oh, oh, oh)

I never met a man as perfect as you
No one makes me feel the way that you do
I really, really need it, when I say

If you want it come and get it
(You know that I'll be waiting)
If you need it like I need it
(Don't go hesitating)
Don't regret it, don't forget it
(Baby let me take you)
Somewhere where only this girl's allowed

Never give up when I'm wanting
(Yeah)
Never give up when I'm needing
(Yeah)
Never give up when I'm feeling
Never give up
Never give up
Ooh
If you wanting to know that I get some
If you wanting to know that I taste some
Never give up
Never give up
If I want it, gonna get it
Gonna take it, gonna make it
This way yeah

If you want it come and get it
(Come and get it)
(You know that I'll be waiting)
If you need it like I need it
(Don't go hesitating)
Don't regret it, don't forget it
(Baby let me take you)
Somewhere where only this girl's allowed

If you want it come and get it
(You know that I'll be waiting)
If you need it like I need it
(Oh, oh)
(Don't go hesistating)
Don't regret it, don't forget it
(Baby let me take you)
Somewhere where only this girl's allowed

If you want it come and get it
(Oh, oh)
(You know that I'll be waiting)
If you need it like I need it
(You know that I need it)
Don't regret it, don't forget it
(Baby let me take you)
Somewhere where only this girl's allowed

If you want it come and get it
(You know that I'll be waiting)
If you need it like I need it
(You know that I need it)
Don't regret it, don't forget it
(Baby let me take you)
Somewhere where only this girl's allowed

Some song by some Ahem. Female band

Diamond Head- "Streets Of Gold" (Sean Harris/Brian Tatler)

Well I know what I want, I know how to get it
These streets in my mind, needing more
I long to survive, I call for yesterday
Feel all this passion, love some more

Streets of gold
I gotta make my stand
Streets of gold, oohh

Well I know what I need, when Ma wrote me a note
Said come home to stay, I said no
Can you see the light, long to her far away

Streets of gold
I gotta make my stand
Streets of gold, oohh

Well I know what I want, I know how to get it
These streets in my mind, needing more
I long to survive, I call for yesterday
Feel all this passion, love some more

Streets of gold
I gotta make my stand
Streets of gold, oohh
