    letra de Darling Lorraine

    The first time I saw her

    I couldn't be sure

    But the sin of impatience

    Said "She's just what you're looking for"

    So I walked right up to her

    And with the part of me that talks

    I introduced myself as Frank

    From New York

    New York



    She's so hot

    She's so cool

    I'm not

    I'm just a fool in love with Darling Lorraine



    All my life I've been a wanderer

    Not really, I mostly lived near my parents home

    Anyway Lorraine and I got married

    Ant the usual marriage stuff

    Then one day she says to me

    From out of the blue

    She says, "Frank, I've had enough

    Romance is a heartbreaker

    I'm not meant to be a homemaker

    And I'm tired of being Darling Loraine"



    What!? you don't love me anymore?

    What!? you're walking out the door?

    What!? you don't like the way I chew?

    Hey, let me tell you

    You're not the woman that I wed

    You say you're depressed but you're not

    You just like to stay in bed

    I don't need you darling Lorraine

    Darling Lorraine

    Lorraine

    I long for your love



    Financially speaking

    I guess I'm a washout

    Everybody's buy and sell

    And sell and buy

    That's what the whole thing's all about

    If it had not been Lorraine

    I'd have left her long ago

    I should have been a musician

    I love the piano



    She's so light

    She's so free

    I'm tight, well, that's me

    But I feel so good

    With Darling Lorraine



    On Christmas morning Frank awakes

    To find Loraine has made a stack of pancakes

    They watch the television, husband and wife

    All afternoon "It's a wonderful life"



    What!? you don't love me anymore?

    What!? you're walking out the door?

    What!? you don't like the way I chew?

    Hey let me tell you

    You're not the woman that I wed

    Gimme my robe I'm going back to bed

    I'm sick to death of you Lorraine



    Darling Lorraine

    Lorraine

    Her hands like wood

    The doctor was smiling

    But the news wasn't good



    Darling Lorraine

    Please don't leave me yet

    I know you're in pain

    Pain you can't forget

    Your breathing is like an echo of our love

    Maybe I'll go down to the corner store

    And buy us something sweet

    Here's an extra blanket honey

    To wrap around your feet

    All the trees were washed with april rain

    And the moon in the meadow

    Took Darling Lorraine

    letra de Old

    The first time I heard 'Peggy Sue'

    I was 12 years old

    Russians up in rocket ships

    And the war was cold

    Now many wars have come and gone

    Genocide still goes on

    Buddy Holly still goes on

    But his catalog was sold



    First time I smoked

    Guess what ' Paranoid

    First time I heard 'Satisfaction'

    I was young and unemployed

    Down the decades every year

    Summer leaves and my birthday's here

    And all my friends stand up and cheer

    And say man you're old

    Getting old

    Old

    Getting old



    We celebrate the birth of Jesus on Christmas day

    And Buddha found nirvana along the lotus way

    About 1,500 years ago the messenger Mohammed spoke

    And his wisdom like a river flowed

    Through hills of gold

    Wisdom is old

    The Koran is old

    The Bible is old

    Greatest story ever told



    Disagreements?

    Work'em out



    The human race has walked the earth for 2.7 million

    And we estimate the universe at 13-14 billion

    When all these numbers tumble into your imagination

    Consider that the lord was here before creation

    God is old

    We're not old

    God is old

    He made the mold



    Take your clothes off

    Adam and Eve

  4. You're the One 4:28
  5. The TeacherVer letra 3:36

    [X]

    letra de The Teacher

    There once was a teacher of great renown

    Whose words were like the tablets of stone

    Because it's easier to learn than unlearn

    Because we've passed the point of no return

    Gather your goods and follow me

    Or you will surely die



    I was only a child of the city

    My parents were children of immigrant stock

    So we followed as followers go

    Over a mountain with a napkin of snow

    And ate the berries and roots

    That grown along the timberline

    Deeper and deeper the dreamer of love

    Sleep on a quilt of stars



    It's cold

    Sometimes you can't catch your breath

    It's so cold



    Time and abundance thickened his step

    So the teacher divided in two

    One half ate the forest and fields

    The other half sucked all the moisture from the clouds

    And we, we were amazed at the power of his appetite



    Deeper and deeper the dreamer of love

    Sleeps on a quilt of stars



    Sometimes we don't know who we are

    Sometimes force overpowers us and we cry

    My teacher carry me home

    Carry me home my teacher

    Carry me home

    Carry me home my teacher

    Carry me home

  6. Look at ThatVer letra 3:54

    [X]

    letra de Look at That

    Look at that

    Look at this

    Drop a stone in the abyss

    Then walk away and know that anything can happen

    Just like that

    Just like this



    Look at that

    Look at this

    Gimme a hug, gimme a kiss

    Then hey, hey, off to school we go

    You might learn something

    Yeah you never know



    Look at that

    Look at this

    Lovers merge and make a wish

    They close their eyes and now their dreams are legal

    Over the mountain the eagles flies

    Through clouds of fire

    Swoop and glide

    You can't believe it,

    You can't decide



    Ask somebody to love you

    Takes a lot of nerve

    Ask somebody to love you

    You got a lot of nerve

    Ask somebody to love you

    Takes a lot of nerve

    Ask somebody to love you

    MA MA MA MA

    MA MA MA MA

    DA DA DA DA

    DA DA DA DA

    LA LA LA LA

    LA LA LA LA

    OOM BOP A DOOM



    Look at that

    Look at this

    This near enough to bliss

    Then over the top we go and down

    Down to the bottom

    If you're looking for worries

    You got 'em



    Ask somebody to love you

    You got a lot of nerve

    Ask somebody to love you

    Takes a lot of nerve

    TIH TIH TIH TIH

    TIH TIH TIH TIH

    GUH GUH GUH GUH

    GUH GUH GUH GUH

    LIH LIH LIH LIH

    LIH LIH LIH LIH

    OOM BOP A DOOM



    Come awake, come alive

    Common sense we survive

    Then hey, hey, down the road we go

    You might learn something

    Yeah you never know

    But anyway you've got to go

  7. Señorita With a Necklace of TearsVer letra 3:42

    [X]

    letra de Señorita With a Necklace of Tears

    I have a wisdom tooth

    Inside my crowded face

    I have a friend who is a born-again

    Found his savior's grace

    I was born before my father

    And my children before me

    We are born and born again

    Like the waves of the sea

    That's the way it's always been

    And that's how I want it to be



    Nothing but good news

    There is a frog in South America

    Whose venom is a cure

    For all the suffering that mankind

    Must endure

    More powerful than morphine

    And soothing as the rain

    A frog in South America

    Has the antidote for pain

    That's the way it's always been

    And that's the way I like it



    Some people never say no

    Some people never complain

    Some folks have no idea

    And others will never explain

    That's the way it's always been

    That's the way I like it

    And that's how I want it to be

    That's the way it's always been

    That's the way I like it

    And that's how I want it to be



    If I could play all the memories

    In the neck of my guitar

    I'd write a song called

    "Señorita with a necklace of tears"

    and every tear a sin I'd committed

    oh these many years

    That's who I was

    That's the way it's always been



    Some people always want more

    Some people are what they lack

    Some folks open the door

    Walk away and never look back

    I don't want to be a judge

    And I don't want to be a jury

    I know who I am

    Lord knows who I will be

    That's the way it's always been

    That's the way I like it

    And that's how I want it to be

    That's the way it's always been

    That's the way I like it

    And that's how I want it to be

  8. LoveVer letra 3:50

    [X]

    letra de Love

    Cool me

    Cool my fever high

    Hold me when I cry

    I need it so much

    Makes you want to get down crawl like a beggar

    For its touch

    And all the while it's free as air

    Like plants the medicine is everywhere



    Love

    Love

    Love



    We crave it so badly

    Makes you want to laugh out loud when you receive it

    And gobble it like a candy



    We think it's easy

    Sometimes it's easy

    But it's not easy

    You're going to break down and cry

    We're not important

    We should be grateful

    And if you're wondering why



    Love

    Love

    Love



    The price that we pay

    When evil walks the planet

    And love is crushed like clay

    The master races, the chosen people

    The burning temple, the weeping cathedrals

  9. Pigs, Sheep and WolvesVer letra 3:59

    [X]

    letra de Pigs, Sheep and Wolves

    Big and fat

    Pig's supposed to look like that

    Barnyard thug

    Sleep on straw and calls it a rug

    Yeah that's a rug, ok

    He's walking down the street

    And nobody's going to argue with him

    He's a half-a-ton of pig meat



    Up in the hills above the farm

    Lives a pack of wolves

    Never did no harm

    Sleep all day

    Hunt till four

    Maybe catch a couple of rodents

    You know carnivore



    Sheep in the meadow

    Nibbling on some clover

    One of the sheep wanders over

    Sits by a rock

    Separated from the flock

    He's just sitting by a rock



    Where'd he go?

    I don't know

    Well he was here a minute ago

    I don't know

    Sheep's dead

    Got a gash as big as a wolf's head

    Oh God



    Big and fat

    Pig's supposed to look like that

    Wallowing in lanolin

    He's rubbing it into his pigskin

    Police going crazy

    Let's get him

    Let's get that wolf

    Let's get him

    Let's get that wolf

    Let's get him

    Let's kill him, Let's get him

    Let's kill him



    Court-appointed lawyer wasn't very bright

    Or maybe he was bright

    Maybe he just had a late night

    Yeah it was just a late night

    And he files some feeble appeal

    And the governor says forget it

    It's a done deal

    Election, I don't care, election

    Let's give that wolf a lethal injection

    Let's get him, yeah get him

    Let's kill him, Let's get him

    Let's kill him, Let's get him,kill him

    Let's get him and kill him



    Whew, slow

    Here comes the media

    Setting up their camera

    Asking everyone's opinion

    About pigs, sheep and wolves



    Big and fat

    Pig's supposed to laugh like that

    This is hilarious

    What a great time

    I'm the pig who committed

    The perfect crime



    All around the world

    France, Scandinavia

    There's candle light vigils

    Protesting this behavior

    It's animal behavior

    Animal behavior

    It's Pig, sheep and wolves

    Pig, sheep and wolves

    Pig, sheep and wolves

    It's animal behavior

    Pig, sheep and wolves

  10. Hurricane EyeVer letra 4:12

    [X]

    letra de Hurricane Eye

    Tell us all a story

    About how it used to be

    Make it up and write it down

    Just like history

    About goldilocks and the three bears

    Nature in the cross hairs

    And how we all ascended

    From the deep green sea

    When it's not too hot

    Not too cold

    Not too meek

    Not too bold

    When it's just right and you add sunlight

    Then we're home

    Finally home

    Home in the land of the homeless

    Finally home



    Oh what are we going to do

    I never did a thing to you

    Time peaceful as a hurricane eye

    Peaceful as a hurricane eye



    A history of whispers

    A shadow of a horse

    Faces painted black in sorrow and remorse

    White cloud, black crow

    Crucifix and arrow

    The oldest silence speak the loudest

    Under the deep green sea



    When speech becomes a crime

    Silence leads the spirit

    Over the bridge of time



    Over the bridge of time

    I'm waling with my family

    And the road begins to climb

    And it's oh lord how we going to pray

    With crazy angel voices

    All night

    Until it's a new day



    Peaceful as a hurricane

    Peaceful as a hurricane

    Peaceful as a hurricane eye

    Peaceful as a hurricane

    Peaceful as a hurricane

    Peaceful as a hurricane eye

    Peaceful as a hurricane eye



    You want to be a leader?

    You want to change the game?

    Turn your back on money

    Walk away from fame

    You want to be a missionary?

    Got that missionary zeal?

    Let a stranger change your life

    Hot does it make you feel?

    You want to be a writer

    But you don't know how or when

    Find a quiet place

    Use a humble pen



    You want to talk talk talk about it

    All night squawk about

    The ocean and the atmosphere

    Well I've been away for a long time

    And it looks like a mess around here

    I'll be away for a long time

    So here's how the story goes

    There was an old woman

    Who lived in a shoe

    She was baking a cinnamon pie

    She fell asleep in a washing machine

    Woke up in a hurricane eye

  11. QuietVer letra 4:17

    [X]

    letra de Quiet

    I am heading for a time of quiet

    When my restlessness is past

    And I can lie down on my blanket

    And release my fists at last



    I am heading for a time of solitude

    Of peace without illusions

    When the perfect circle

    Marries all beginnings and conclusions



    And when they say

    That you're not good enough

    Well the answer is

    You're not

    But who are they

    Or what is it

    That eats at what you've got

    With the hunger of ambition

    For the change inside the purse

    They are handcuffs on the soul, my friends

    Handcuffs on the soul

    And worse



    I am heading for a place of quiet

    Where the sage and sweetgrass grow

    By a lake of sacred water

    From the mountain's melted snow
