    letra de Pictures of Matchstick Men

    When I look up to the skies

    I see your eyes a funny kind of yellow

    I rush home to bed I soak my head

    I see your face underneath my pillow

    I wake next morning tired still yawning

    See your face come peeking through my window

    Pictures of matchstick men and you

    Mirages of matchstick men and you

    All I ever see is them and you



    [guitar intro]



    Windows echo your reflection

    When I look in their direction gone

    When will this haunting stop

    Your face it just wont leave me a-lone

    Pictures of matchstick men and you

    Mirages of matchstick men and you

    All I ever see is them and you

    You in the sky you with this guy you make men cry you lie

    You in the sky you with this guy you make men cry you lie



    [guitar intro]



    Pictures of matchstick men, Pictures of matchstick...

    letra de Ice in the Sun

    I'm not a little boy, I've lived alone and never loved so more

    But when she touches me I'm on the way, I'm underneath the floor



    Like ice in the sun I melt away

    Whenever she comes I melt away

    Like in in the sun I melt away



    I sit down in a chair and read a book as if I couldn't there

    But she is in a room and I must look I see her everywhere



    Like ice in the sun I melt away

    Whenever she comes I melt away

    Like in in the sun I melt away



    She opens up her eyes as if to speak

    She looks at me and I am weak

    Her eyes they seem much bigger than before

    I cannot think anymore



    Like ice in the sun I melt away

    Whenever she comes I melt away

    Like in in the sun I melt away



    Like ice in the sun I melt away

    Whenever she comes I melt away

    Like ice in the sun I melt away

    letra de Down the Dustpipe

    Heading down the back turnpike, signposts are pointing west

    Fell into the lonely dustpipe, hope my pick-up can stand the test

    But I'm doing all right now

    Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na



    Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my jeans

    Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town like New Orleans

    But I'm doing all right now

    Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na



    Guess I didn't make it in the city, but that's just the way that it goes

    'Cos there's a lotta lunatics, crazy ghostmen, baby, don't like the shape of my nose

    But I'm doing all right now

    Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na



    Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my jeans

    Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town like New Orleans

    But I'm doing all right now

    Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na



    Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my jeans

    Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town like New Orleans

    But I'm doing all right now.....

    letra de Paper Plane

    Riding on a big white butterfly

    I turned my back away towards the sky

    I closed my eyes to look for something

    Saw myself as really nothing

    Then I realised my butterfly

    Wasn't really up there with me

    We all make mistakes, forgive me

    Would you like to ride my butterfly



    Riding on a long blue paperplane

    Getting seasick, sorry once again

    Landing strip is getting nearer

    Hope the foglifts, make it clearer

    Then I realised my paperplane

    Wasn't really up there with me

    We all make mistakes, forgive me

    Would you like to ride my paperplane



    Riding in a three grand Deutche car

    A to B is often very far

    Home is near, but such a long way

    Legs and heads all feel the wrong way

    Then I realised my Deutche car

    Is only there to get me somewhere

    Even so I really do care

    Would you like to ride my Deutche car

    A mean, mean girl

    I never had one as greedy as that one

    A mean, mean girl



    Mean, mean, mean, mean girl

    I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for

    Mean, mean, mean, mean girl

    She said I was the first but there were many more



    She was a big one, a met-at-a-gig once

    A mean, mean girl

    I felt a sick one, she was a quick one

    A mean, mean girl



    Mean, mean, mean, mean girl

    I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for

    Mean, mean, mean, mean girl

    She said I was the first but there were many more



    Now I'm a sad one, and she was a bad one

    A mean, mean girl

    I never had one as greedy as that one

    A mean, mean girl



    Mean, mean, mean, mean girl

    I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for

    Mean, mean, mean, mean girl

    She said I was the first but there were many more



    She was a big one, a met-at-a-gig once

  8. Break the RulesVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Break the Rules

    Spent a long, long evening in a low down honky-tonk bar

    Pulled a low down lady with a long black honky-tonk car

    I asked no questions, I got no lies

    A one off winner, I didn't want any ties

    And I knew it wasn't right

    Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules



    Took me down on the highway doing too many miles an hour

    And by the way she motored thought we might have made the Eiffel

    Tower

    She stopped the motor by her own front door

    I knew she'd done it so many times before

    But I was off of the floor

    But everybody has to sometimes break the rules



    I woke up next morning feeling kind of up and down

    'Cos I did not know if I was in or out of the town

    Then I saw the face from the night before

    My purse was empty lying there on the floor

    But like I told you before

    That, everybody has to sometimes break the rules



    I spend a low down evening sitting high on a honky-tonk stool

    And I spent my money like a low down honky-tonk fool

    But everybody has to sometimes break the rules

    Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules

    Yes, everybody has to sometimes break the rules

    letra de Roll over Lay Down

    When I got home that night early one morning

    Seeing the note written in ink pinned to the door

    Drinking the drink cold from the fridge on the table

    I drank a toast you were the most the night before



    Roll over lay down and let me in

    Roll over it's a long way where I've been

    Roll over lay down and let me in

    Roll over lay down



    When I get home tomorrow night after this morning

    Show me the care you showed in the note the night before

    Maybe I won't take a drink from the table

    Reckon I'll lay me straight down on the floor

    Roll over lay down and let me in

    Roll over it's a long way where I've been

    Roll over lay down and let me in

    Roll over lay down



    When I get home tomorrow night after this morning

    Show me the day, show me the note the night before

    Maybe I won't take a drink from the table

    Reckon I'll lay me straight down on the floor

    Roll over lay down and let me in

    Roll over it's a long way where I've been

    Roll over lay down and let me in

    Roll over lay down

    letra de Rain

    How can I see what I'm needing for

    How can I give what I gave before

    How can you tell me that you want me to stay

    How can I stay when I'm trying to say

    That I can't live without the rain

    Yes I can't live without the rain



    How can I feel what I'm trying to feel

    How can I move when I'm heel to heel

    You're always shouting about the doubt in my eyes

    But I can't answer 'cos my eyes are so dry

    Now I can't live without the rain

    Yes I can't live without the rain



    Now I can't live without the rain

    That's falling on my head

    Rain that's falling on my head

    Rain that's falling

    Rain that's falling

    Rain that's falling on my head



    I started thinking back to you know when

    I'd like to send a line but then again

    How can I write you when there ain't no light?

    I'm feeling tired tonight but that is all right

    Now I can't live without the rain

    Yes I can't live without the rain

    [X]

    letra de Again and Again

    Once upon a time not so very long ago

    There wasn't such a thing as a rock'n'roll show

    You had to sit at home and listen to the radio

    Then came a man with a rockin' guitar

    Found himself a beat and he played it near and far

    Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll



    Again again again again again again again again

    Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?

    Again again again again again again again again

    Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?



    He travelled round the world in a rock-n-roll band

    He stood there like a giant with a guitar in his hand

    Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll

    Nobody cared about the clothes he would wear

    Nobody cared about the colour of his hair

    Everybody came to see and let the good times roll



    Again again again again again again again again

    Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?

    Again again again again again again again again

    Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?



    Now we've got the rhythm in us now we've got the rock

    Time didn't matter never living by the clock

    Everybody came to hear him playing his rock-n-roll

    Then came a line when the music didn't rhyme

    He couldn't find the rhyme 'cos he couldn't find the time

    But still the people came to listen to the good times roll



    Again again again again again again again again

    Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?

    Again again again again again again again again

    Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?

    Again again again again again again again again

    Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?

    Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?

    letra de Lies

    I had another drink after another drink and then I tried to crawl to the door

    I had another smoke after another joke and then I couldn't take any more

    It didn't change a thing, not any single thing, when someone tried to tell me for sure

    I heard another voice that said I wasn't in a dream

    I read a word or two about everything

    I never knew the way that it oughta have been

    They never told me a thing about it

    I never did know a thing about it

    And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes they won't go away

    And the times that I tried are the times that I find they don't show today

    But you make me feel so good



    I woke up after four, still lying on the floor, and waiting to be carried away

    I woke up once again, a little after ten, will things be any better today

    It doesn't change you see, it only changes me, well someone tried to tell me I'm sure

    I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream

    I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between

    I never knew the way that it oughta have been

    They never told me a thing about it

    I never did know a thing about it

    And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, they won't go away

    And the times that I tried, are the times that I find they don't show today

    But you make me feel so good



    I'm going back to school, I'm gonna check the rule, and see if I get carried away

    I'm going back again, I'm gonna try again, don't listen what the people might say

    It doesn't change a thing, not any single thing, well someone tried to tell me for sure

    I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream

    I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between

    I never knew the way that it oughta have been

    They never told me a thing about it

    I never did know a thing about it

    And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, they won't go away

    And the times that I tried, are the times that I find they don't show today

    But you make me feel so good



    I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream

    I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between

    I never knew the way that it oughta have been

    They never told me a thing about it

    I never did know a thing about it

    And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, they won't go away

    Anyway it's a sad, sad song been sung



    Dear John goodbye she said, sometimes it's hard she said

    Dear John I've broken away



    Vanity is a hard old lady, you can't read her mind

    Captured a time for me, I could see

    A time for me was gonna be

    Deep in my heart, deep in my memory

    Deep in a part of me, heart of me

    Meant to be history

    Could it be that I'm still wondering



    I never knew what had happened to me

    I didn't think it was true

    That I could be just like anyone else

    I'll take my chance with you



    Picture a dream, picture a fantasy

    Picture the mood of me, mystery

    You and me, a mystery

    Lost in a dream, lost in a fantasy

    Lost in what seemed to be dreams to me

    Seemed to be, had to be

    Couldn't find no other reason



    I never knew what had happened to me

    I didn't think it was true

    That I could be just like anyone else

    I'll take my chance with you



    Let's have a drink, it's Marguerita time

    It's Marguerita time, after nine

    Summertime, anytime

    You'll still always find me wondering

    I didn't think it was true

    That I could be just like anyone else

    I'll take my chance with you

    letra de Going Down Town Tonight

    I'm going down town tonight, I'm gonna find myself a dream

    I'm gonna dress up right, and be the best they've ever seen

    You can tell from their eyes, you can tell from their eyes

    That they're never impressed, that they're never impressed

    From the way they walk round, from the way they walk round

    They are used to the best, they are used to the best



    Going down town tonight, going down town tonight

    Going down town tonight, going down town tonight



    Why let them break you in with self-sophisticated praise

    'Cos when the cards are low you see the smile come on their face

    If you speak the right words, if you speak the right words

    They will hear what you say, they will hear what you say

    They will take your attention, just take your attention

    And then turn away, and then turn away



    Just one thing before you go my ladies of the night

    Just one thing I have to say I've got you, and you're

    Confident and debonair you move between the stars

    Hungry for those staring eyes that fill your waking hours



    Going down town tonight, going down town tonight

    Going down town tonight, going down town tonight

    Going down town tonight, going down town tonight



    Your face is all run dry with all the echoes of the night

    And so I'm home alone, I wash my head and hold on tight.

    If you speak the right words, if you speak the right words

    They will hear what you say, they will hear what you say

    They will take your attention, just take your attention

    And then turn away, and then turn away

    I was out on the highway

    I was out on my feet

    I was tired and hungry

    I was late for the meet.



    I had a red sky behind me

    I had the bad guys on my tail

    I had a hundred different reasons

    To keep me falling awake

    I had a red sky behind me

    With the stars coming into view

    And the thought that kept me going

    Was soon I'm gonna make it with you



    I had the desert on both sides now

    I had the lights in my eyes

    Of the town I remember

    Up ahead in the cold black sky



    I had a red sky behind me

    I had the bad guys on my tail

    I had a hundred different reasons

    To keep me falling awake

    I had a red sky behind me

    With the stars coming into view

    And the thought that kept me going

    Was soon I'm gonna make it with you



    Well I remember that old saying 'bout how good tomorrow will be

    But will I be lucky to see with a red sky's lucky for me



    In my dreams there is a picture of me in a big gold frame

    And the poeple that I've never seen are pointing at my name



    I had a red sky behind me

    I had the bad guys on my tail

    I had a hundred different reasons

    To keep me falling awake

    I had a red sky behind me

    With the stars coming into view

    And the thought that kept me going

    Was soon I'm gonna make it with you



    I had a red sky behind me

    With the stars coming into view

    And the thought that kept me going

    Was soon I'm gonna make it with you

    letra de In the Army Now

    A vacation in a foreign land, Uncle Sam does the best he can

    You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now



    Now you remember what the draft man said, nothing to do all day but stay in bed

    You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now



    You'll be the hero of the neighbourhood, nobody knows that you've left for good

    You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now



    Smiling faces as you wait to land, but once you get there no-one gives a damn

    You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now



    Hand grenades flying over your head



    Missiles flying over your head, if you want to survive get out of bed

    You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now



    Shots ring out in the dead of night, the sergeant calls 'Stand up and fight!'

    You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now



    You've got your orders better shoot on sight, your finger's on the trigger but it don't seem right

    You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now

    You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now



    Night is falling and you just can't see, is this illusion or reality?

    You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army, in the army now

    You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now



    Oh-oo-oh you're in the army, in the army now

    Oh-oo-oh you're in the army, in the army now

    Oh-oo-oh you're in the army, in the army now

    letra de When You Walk in the Room

    I can feel a new expression on my face

    I can feel a glowing sensation taking place

    I can hear the guitars playing lovely tunes

    Every time that you walk in the room



    I close my eyes for a second and pretend it's me you want

    Meanwhile I try to act so nonchalant

    I feel the summer's night with a magic moon

    Every time that you walk in the room



    Baby it's a dream come true

    Standing right alongside of you

    Wish I could show you how much I care

    But I only have the nerve to stare



    I can feel there's something pounding in my brain

    Just anytime that someone speaks your name

    Trumpets sound and I hear thunder boom

    Every time that you

    Every time that you

    Every time that you walk in the room

    Walk in the room

    Walk in the room

    Walk in the room
