Hey Man

Hey, man, don't look so scared.
You know I'm only testing you out.
Hey man, don't look so angry,
you're real close to figuring me out.

We are a part of a circle.
It's like a mobius strip,
and it goes round and round until it loses a link.
And there's a shadow in the sky and it looks like rain,
and shit is gonna fly once again.

Hey, man, we look at each other with ample eyes,
so why not some time to discover what's behind your eyes?
I've got so many questions that I want to ask you.
I am so tired of mirrors- pour me a glass of your wine!

And there's a shadow in the sky and it looks like rain,
and shit is gonna fly once again!
I've got a bunch of government cheques at my door.
Each morning I try to send them back but they only send me more.
I look at myself in the mirror; am I vital today?
Hey, man, I let my conscience get in the way!

And there's a shadow in the sky , and it looks like rain,
and shit is gonna fly once again,
and I don't mean to rain on your parade,
but pathos has got me once again...
and I don't want ambivalence no more,
I don't want ambivalence no more,
I don't want ambivalence no more,
no I don't want ambivalence no more!

Shit On The Radio (Remember The Days)

You liked me 'till you heard my shit on the radio
Well I hate to say but pop ain't going solo
You liked me 'till you heard my shit on the radio
But now I'm just too mainstream for you, oh no
You liked me 'till you seen me on your t.v.
Well if you're so low below then why you watching
You say good things come to those who wait
Well I’ve been waiting a long time for this

I remember the days when I was so eager to satisfy you
And be less than I was just to prove I could walk beside you
Now that I've flown away I see you've chosen to stay behind me
And still you curse the day I decided to stay true to myself

You say your quest is to bring it higher
Well I never seen you change without a fire
But from your mouth I have seen a lot of burning
But underneath I think it's a lot of yearning
Your face, the colours change from green to yellow
To the point where you can't even say hello
You tell me you'd kill me if I ever snob you out
Like that's what you'd expect from me, like that's what I'm about

I remember the days when I was so eager to satisfy you
And be less than I was just to prove I could walk beside you
Now that I've flown away I see you've chosen to stay behind me
And still you curse the day I decided to stay true to myself

It's so much easier to stay down there guaranteeing you're cool
Than to sit up here exposing myself trying to break through
Than to burn in the spotlight, turn in the spitfire
Scream without making a sound, be up here without looking down
because we're all afraid of heights

I remember the days when I was so eager to satisfy you
And be less than I was just to prove I could walk beside you
Now that I've flown away I see you've chosen to stay behind me
And still you curse the day I decided to stay true to myself

Why ya hurt me hurt me hurt me hurt me hurt me hurt me so so,
leave me down down down down low leave me down da down down da down da down
down down...shit on the radio... shit on the radio... shit on the radio... shit
on the radio

Baby Girl

I've seen a man cry, I've seen a man die inside
I've seen him say to me that he is only mine
That he gotta do what is best for him
Never let me in, not even begin
To tell me I’m the one under his moon and sun
That I am the thing that revolves around him
But while on top of him I know what's best for him
I’ll show him how to win and let me in cuz

Chorus:
I don’t wanna be your baby girl
I don’t wanna be your little pearl
I just wanna be what's best for me
To be one-da-dum with my own star under my own sun

We're all sorry now, I didn’t mean to wow
Make you cry like that, it's just a little spat
Still I want you to know, though I love you so
It's mostly me dreaming, forcing, believing
That you’re an ideal, hell I never steal
But I stole you from, from another one
So take yourself and wrap around my little finger
Cuz that’s how it should swing

Chorus

Why can't he see, why can't he see what's inside of me, yeah... don't you, don't you call me coochie-coo a little girl, now... don’t you gaga goo no coochie-coo girl now I’m so much more, can't you see? Can’t you see?
Look who’s writing now a token of their love
Can't you see love that it’s just because
I wanted a cheap way to get inside your head
And not a cheap way to get inside your bed
Oh you're running now, with that silly one
It’s all over now, this woman's just begun
Maybe we’ll see about the will and the way
Butterflies return some day

Chorus

Legend

He wants to be, he wants to be, with everything under the sun
He wants to be, he wants to be, with everything under the sun

Chorus:
And like a legend that rises and unfolds I cannot be his only one

He makes me feel, he makes me feel, like you used to,
(whoa) like you used to
He makes me feel, he makes me feel, like you used to,
(whoa) like you used to

Chorus:
And like a fickle flower when it first sees the light
I cannot show just how I fight
And like a fickle flower when it first sees the light
I cannot show just how I fight

Babe I saw you walking, it was after midnight
Carrying nothing except for a flashlight
You wanted to be Romeo so low at my window
You wanted to be Romeo so low at my window
Will you open the door for me if you believe in chivalry
Will you open the door for me if you believe in chivalry
For I do not think you low though you bow to me so-so
I do not think you low though you bow to me so-so

Bridge:
I know you want to drink from the purest wine
But the drink is far more sour then you would ever think
He wants to be, he wants to be with everything under the sun
And she wants to burn, she wants to burn hot like that sun,
(whoa) hot like that sun

Chorus
Just like a legend that rises and unfolds I cannot be his only one
And like a callous, cold, callous woman she'll never know what she did done

So like this legend that rises and unfolds I'll never be his only one

I'm Like A Bird

You're beautiful, and that's for sure
You'll never, ever fade
You're lovely, but it's not for sure
That I won't ever change
And though my love is grand...
Though my love is true...

I'm like a bird, I only fly away
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is
And baby all I need for you to know is
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is
All I need for you to know is

Your faith in me brings me to tears
Even after all these years
And it pains me so much to tell
That you don't know me that well
And though my love is grand
Though my love is true

I'm like a bird, I only fly away
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is
And baby all I need for you to know is
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away (I don't know)
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is
All I need for you to know is

It's not that I wanna say goodbye
It's just that every time you try
To tell me, me that you love me, oh (oh)
Each and every single day
I know I'm going to have to eventually give you away...
And though my love is rare, rare, rare
And though my love is true... yeah
I'm just scared...
That we may fall through...
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah

I'm like a bird (I'm like a bird)
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is
And baby all I need for you to know is

I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away (fly away)
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is (ahh it's true)
And baby all I need for you to know is

I'm like a bird, I only fly away (And I don't know where my soul is)
I don't know where my soul is (I don't know where my home is)
I don't know where my home is (no)
And baby all I need for you to know is

I'm like a bird, I only fly away (I don't know where my soul is)
I don't know where my soul is (I don't know where my home is))
I don't know where my home is
And baby all I need for you to know is
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is
And baby all I need for you to know is
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is

Turn Off The Light

It’s getting so lonely inside this bed
Don’t know if I should lick my wounds or say ‘woe is me’ instead
There’s an aching inside my head
It’s telling me you’re better off alone

But after midnight
Morning will come
And the day will see
If you will get some

They say that girl ya know she act too tough, tough, tough
Well it’s ‘til I turn off the light, turn off the light
They say that girl ya know she act so rough, rough, rough
Well it’s ‘til I turn off the light, turn off the light
And I say follow me follow me follow me down, down, down, down
‘Til you see all my dreams
Not everything in this magical world is quite what it seems

I looked above the other day
‘Cause I think I’m good and ready for a change
I live my life by the moon (by the moon)
If it’s high play it low, if it’s harvest go slow, and if it’s full then go

But after midnight
Morning will come
And the day will see, yeah
If you’re gonna get some

They say that girl ya know she act too tough, tough, tough
Well it’s ‘til I turn off the light, turn off the light
They say that girl ya know she act so rough, rough, rough
Well it’s ‘til I turn off the light, turn off the light
And I say follow me follow me follow me down, down, down, down
‘Til you see all my dreams
Not everything in this magical world is quite what it seems

And I’m searching for things that I just cannot see
Why don’t you don’t you don’t you come and be with me
And I pretend to be cool with me, wanna believe
That I can do it on my own without my heart and my sleeve
I’m running I’m running, catch up with me life
Where is the love that I’m looking to find?
It’s all in me, can’t you see
Why can’t you, why can’t you see, it’s all in me yeah

All in me yeah
Where is your logic? (turn off the light, turn off the light)
Who do you need? (turn off the light, turn off the light)….
And I say follow me follow me follow me down, down, down, down
‘Til you see all my dreams
Not everything in this magical world is quite what it seems
Follow me follow me down, down, down (turn off the light, turn off the light)
Follow me down, follow me down, down, down (turn off the light, turn off the light)
And I say follow me follow me follow me down, down, down, down
‘Til you see all my dreams, see all my dreams
Follow me follow me follow me down, down, down, down
See all my dreams, see all my dreams
Where is your logic? (turn off the light, turn off the light)
Who do you need? (turn off the light, turn off the light)
Where… Can you turn… (turn off the light, turn off the light)
Where is your logic? (turn off the light, turn off the light)
Who do you need? (turn off the light, turn off the light)

Trynna Finda Way

I left my heart in San Francisco with some club kids
On a crowded street somewhere
The sky was red and he said,
"Would you like to come be a part of my North American Dream?"

I could try to chase life down
Down the street and I'd find
The separation of fact and
Fiction

I'm tryin' a find a way
I'm tryin' a find a right
And if I budge I just might
I'm tryin' a find a way
I'm tryin' a find a right
And if I budge I just might

I left my conscience somewhere with my rythym
I heard about it from the mouth of a man
He was hopping some trains and combing the land
Looking for a lover planted in the east
Trying to run from the dreaded fist beast

And it lies, it lies
In the picket fence call
It was my own paradise with
My own private corridor

I'm tryin' a find a way
I'm tryin' a find a right
And if I budge I just might
I'm tryin' a find a way
I'm tryin' a find a right
And if I budge I just might

So I'm dancing to a new beat and it came to me in bed
My veins became a strain of light that I let to flow instead
And a wish came to me like Peter Pan at my window and said
"Evolve your destiny child and you'll never walk alone, no.
You'll never walk alone," but

Travel to the land of surrender
Till' you can't cry no more
Till you can't, till you can't
And you'll never walk alone

All this inspiration is passing me by
All I can do is chill when I really wanna fly
And this pollution do nothing but dirty up my mind
Faster than forever in the blink of an eye
To see past my lethargy is hard I feign
The beauty of my youth is gone
But the chemicals remain

I'm tryin' a find a way
I'm tryin' a find a right
And if I budge I just might
I'm tryin' a find a way
I'm tryin' a find a right
And if I budge I just might

I'm tryin' a find a way
I'm tryin' a find a right
And if I budge I just might

I travel to this land of surrender but I see it's all over me, over and over
again...and I try and I try and I try...an angel on my left side and a devil
on my right..and they fight and they fight and they fight..they're fighting,
they're fighting, they're fighting for my attention...hello? You have my
attention...Do I have your attention...Can I have your attention
please?...please, you've made such such an impression on me

Naslov: Re: Nelly Furtado Uto Jan 13, 2009 11:12 pm

Party

I'm talking to the mirror again but it's not listening
I'm cleaning my dirty mind like a toilet but it won't give in
I'm drinking spirits in the hopes that I will find myself one
But all I can rectify is that the party's just begun

Party's just begun
Party's just begun
Party's just begun
Party's just begun

I feel like falling asleep and never waking up
It's not that my glass is empty but I need another cup
When all of the doors around me just shut one by one
I feel like falling asleep but the party's just begun

Party's just begun
Party's just begun
Party's just begun
Party's just begun

Shaky shaky steps in the middle of the day
A fire in my path and a cool decay
Of limbs and tooth under my skin
Oh, freedom, where do I begin
I'm changing my inflection and how I say the words
Maybe it will sound like something they've never heard
Oh, death of the party
I picked up the chalice of malice
And drank till I was full, I drank till I was full
I was thirsty but I drank till I was full,
I drank till I, till I,till I was full

There's a fever in my bones that I know so well
I keep my head low low low to avoid the swell
But it'll be cold in hell, it'll be cold in hell
Before they put me in that chamber
So I'm cleaning up as fast as I can
I'm cleaning up as fast as I can
Cuz you can't unbreak what you break, you can't unfake the very fake
You cannot fuel without a tank,
no you can't unbreak what you break, what you break

Party's just begun
Party's just begun
Party's just begun
Party's just begun

Party's just begun
Party's just begun
Party's just begun
Party's just begun

Naslov: Re: Nelly Furtado Uto Jan 13, 2009 11:13 pm

Well, Well

Well, well, what do I say
Looks like what goes around comes around
And everyone will have their final say
Sometime, someday
Looks like I only love God when the sun shines my way
Looks like I'm into divinity only when I can see its sweet, sweet rays

Chorus:
I say what I mean but I don't mean what I say
Well, well, it's fine out today
I say what I mean but I don't mean what I say
Well, well, it's fine out

Well, well, what do I say
I've never seen a bad day look quite this way
And well, well, what do I do
When all of my thoughts run right back to you
Looks like I meant to speak with logic
But hon', the carnal always gets in the way
Well, well, this fire was more funner than proper grammar anyway

C h o r u s

Then you get to the part where your heart just wants to die
Then you get to the part where your heart screams it just sighs
Then you get to the part where your heart knows it's a crime
So it flies like a bird, it's heard, it's heard, it's heard the word

C h o r u s

Today, today, today, today
Well, well, it's fine out

My Love Grows Deeper

My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
My love grows deeper every day, deep into the sea
But takes a little piece of me, a little piece of me

Oh it's so beautiful out and I can't see why we're not allowed to be
Up in the sky with the birds, counting the flowers
And oh my powers have failed me again when I can't see beginning to end
Though I try and test it again through the hours

Wandering stars in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
Wandering stars in the blue could not be born 'cause of you

My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
Deeper every day, deep into the sea
A little piece of me, a little piece of me

Oh why can't I be green as the grass beneath my feet
As fresh as the dew hits the ground in the morning
And not yellow like bumble bees, please take me off my knees
My knees, I don't wanna be red forever

Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you

I've been looking at the moon but I've been thinking of myself
I've got me under my own skin, I don't need nobody else
I'm looking at the moon but I'm thinking of myself
I've got me under my own skin, I don't need nobody else

Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you

If I could have sunlight in the palm of your hand
I'd take the moonlight instead
If I could have sunlight in the palm of your hand
I'd take the moonlight instead

I Will Make U Cry

Chuva! Chuvinha! Vem, vem, vem ca, rapaz!
Chuva! Chuvinha! Vem, vem, vem ca, rapaz!

This is not political it's just that I
Demand attention when I walk into a room
And it's not that I can't play ball hard it's just that I don't want to
And the more I think about this pressure love I don't want you
And I can't have you and that's what hurts the most
I cannot show you these things I boast
I'll throw my heart out, keep my head up, I cannot fuck up cuz
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only cause you pain, yeah (I
promise that)
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only bring on the rain
So I'll prefer to run this road rough around the edges Good for something but
too good to give it to you You run your own course at your own pace but I just
got impatient See, I wanted to explore Forsake you, forsook you, abate you,
dissipate you So turn fate around, I believed that I was free of you (not)
I still believe in those days on benches at sunset or the waves in July-or
was it March
We weathered weathers and storms real and imagined, such fragile tenderness
You are truly blessed
I stress this as I blow you this kiss as I blow it in the wind, mmwa
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only cause you pain, yeah (I
promise that)
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only bring on the rain
Chuva! Chuvinha! Vem, vem, vem ca, rapaz!
Gonna make u cry so damn hard you're gonna curse your drawers and wish you
weren't a boy
Gonna make u cry so damn hard you'll curse your drawers and wish you weren't
a boy, yeah
I will make u cry
I will make u cry
(Boohoo)

They say time is made of memories
Well I remembered and I'm tired
This is not political
It's just that I remember the fire
Babe you left me with my head held high and I feigned to be more than I was,
didn't I
I thought I could do without sugar love but this chocolate has turned into
sweet bubble gum
Candy is sweet but honey is sweeter
It tastes like the real thing but candy is much much cheaper (Cheaper)
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only cause you pain, yeah (I
promise that)
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only bring on the rain
(rain a'fallin' down, rain a'fallin' down, hahahaha)
(rain a'fallin' down, rain a'fallin' down, hahahaha)
(rain a'fallin' down, rain a'fallin' down, hahahaha)
...time crying...you'll be crying... I'm sorry I made you cry... I didn't
mean to, let me wipe those tears away...wipe those tears away...don't cry
baby...it's only rain

Scared Of You

I'm sorry I forsake you
I'm sorry that I left you
I'm sorry I did forget you

And I'm sorry that I made myself feel better
By making you feel never good enough
I know you'll shine much brighter than I ever could
Maybe that is why I was

Chorus:
Scared of you
(And in everything I do I'm still thinking of you)
Oh, you
And I know you were scared of me
(But everytime I tried to love you I just fell through)
Too

Desculpa-me se te-ofendi
Desculpa-me se te-esqueci
Desculpa me se-eu te-deixei
Eu te-deixei
E desculpa-me por mi sintir bem com tua dor
Sabes que te-adore mais sei que tu estrela a maior do que minha,
do que minha
E por isso

Chorus:
Eu tenho medo deste amor (os dias passo pensando en ti) amor
Medo deste amor (Salve-me porque agora estou caindo) amor

Scared of you I was
Scared of you I was
Scared of you
Scared of you
Scared of you

(Feat. Esthero)
Nelly: Hey Esthero!
Esthero: Yeah?

Esthero: Hey, Nelstar!

Nelly-
I want to know where you go
I want to know where you go
At night, when you leave my bed
And, when I saw you wandering is when I knew
You had no time for me left in your life
So I'm gonna hold my baby blown away, blown away
So goodbye

But I feel you
(Don't want to let you go)
I feel you
(Hey man I love you so)
I feel you
(Alone here in the night)
I feel you

If you want you can try
And you can make it right

Esthero-
Oh you are such a little child
Oh you are such a little child
And you won't give anything away
No way, no way, no oh

And when I saw you wandering
When I saw you creeping is when I knew
You had no time for me in your life
Bo boo-hoo, now you're gone

But I feel you
(Don't want to let you go)
I feel you
(Hey man I love you so)
I feel you
(Alone here in the night)
I feel you ooh ooh ooh

It's not too late to catch me while you can
I will be waiting for you
You know it's not too late
It's not too late
Oh baby went away
I wish he could have stayed here
But, it's not too late

'Cause I feel you
(Don't want to let you go)

One Trick Ponny

You say, you're identical to some
Well, you're identical to none

I am not a one-trick pony
I am not a one-trick pony
I really feel no one can own me
I really feel nothing can hold me

Nobody can control me
Nobody can conform me
Nobody can disown me
Nobody can ignore me

So slow down
One-trick pony

I am not a one-trick pony
I am not a one-trick pony
For you I will not dance
And for you I will not prance

And where I was last
I'll never be at
And after that
I've already passed

Slow down
(Get on it girl, get on it girl)
(If it's got a price tag on it)
And hear this sound
One-trick pony

Yeah, you do it for a price
I can see it in your eyes
See that role was never mine
Cause I don't want to stand in line
See how that one-trick story goes
If she weren't on top you'd never know
Cause a one-tick pony steals the show

You're just a pony

So back down
(Get on it girl, get on it girl)
To the ground
And chill out

Girl, you better shape up, girl, you better shape up
Yeah the ride is so, so, so, so, so, so fast
Yeah, you better shape up
Yeah, just keep your chin up
No half ass...no half ass

One-trick pony
Ride ride ride

Powerless

Paint my face in your magazines
Make it look whiter than it seems
Paint me over with your dreams
Shove away my ethnicity
Burn every notion that I
May have a flame inside to fight
Say just what is on my mind
That offending your might

Cause this life
Is too short
To live it just for you
But when you feel
So powerless
What are you gonna do
So say what you want
Say what you want

I saw her face outside today
Weatherworn, looking all the rage
They took her passion and her gaze
And made a poster
Now it's moccasins we sport
We take the culture and contort
Perhaps only to distort
What we are hiding

Cause this life
Is too short
To live it just for you
But when you feel
So powerless
What are you gonna do
But say what you want
Say what you want
Say, say...

Hey you the one, the one and outside
Are you gonna get in, get in
Hey you the one that don't fit in
How ya how ya gonna get in
Hey you the one outside
Are you ever gonna get in with your
Broken tooth, broken jaw, broken mojo

Yeah this life is too short
To live it just for you
But when you feel so powerless
What are you gonna do?

Cause this life
Is too short
To live it just for you
But when you feel
So powerless
What are you gonna do

Cause this life
Is too short
To live it just for you
But when you feel
So powerless
What are you gonna do

Say what you want (life is too short)
Say what you want
Say what you want (just for you)
Say what you want
Say what you want to (feel powerless)
Say what you want to say
Say, say (gonna do)

Life is too short
Just for you
Feel, powerless
Gonna do

Explode

Peso...Joga...ginga...roda

Vera's face burnt as a memory of bedroom fun
With a ligther and some hairspray
Smoking in the girls' room
Not worse than Shelley's rape behind the McDonald's
By a man she thought was fine, didn't tell anybody
Or maybe back then we just thought that she was getting some

Now we look back and see that she didn't know how
We never thought that we'd get caught up
Stuck in the teenage waste

As we explode
As we explode

Then getting drunk in the bushes by the road outside the Kmart
Rolling around in them to see if you would get prickled
Slip the acid on your tongue rooftop mall parkade
We couldn't get enough

Then count the stars and the ten million woes
Just you and the universe judging each other
We never knew that we'd get caught up
Stuck in the teenage waste

As we explode
As we explode
As we explode
As we let go...yeah

Peso...roda...ginga...joga

It's a fight, it's a fight and you finally belong
Got a shiner now and it's more than a battle scar
More than a battle scar, such a good, good story to tell
At lunch break, lunch break, lunch break, lunch break
Such a good, good story to tell

You bully, you break, you bully, you break
You fake, you fake, you fake, you fake
You smoke, you toke, you want, you flaunt, you hit it and you're in it and it's spinning

And it's wild
We never thought that we'd get caught up
Stuck in the teenage waste

As we explode
As we explode
As we explode
As we let go

We're counting the stars
We're counting the stars
We're gonna go far, we're gonna go far
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
We're not very far, we're not very far

And it's you and me in the open air
It's truth or dare, we don't care
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars

Try

All I know
Is everything is not as it's sold
But the more I grow the less I know
And I have lived so many lives
Though I'm not old
And the more I see, the less I grow
The fewer the seeds the more I sow

Then I see you standing there
Wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
Then I see you standing there
Wanting more from me
And all I can do is try

I wish I hadn't seen all of the realness
And all the real people are really not real at all
The more I learn the more I cry
As I say goodbye to the way of life
I thought I had designed for me

Then I see you standing there
Wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
Then I see you standing there
I'm all I'll ever be
But all I can do is try
Try

All of the moments that already passed
We'll try to go back and make them last
All of the things we want each other to be
We never will be
And that's wonderful, and that's life
And that's you, baby
This is me, baby
And we are, we are, we are, we are
Free
In our love
We are free in our love

Forca

It is the passion flowing right on through your veins
And it's the feeling that you're oh so glad you came
It is the moment you remember you're alive
It is the air you breathe, the element, the fire
It is that flower that you took the time to smell
It is the power that you know you got it well
It is the fear inside that you can overcome
This is the orchestra, the rhythm and the drum

Como uma força, com uma força
Como uma força que ninguem pode parar
Como uma força, com uma forca
Como uma fome que ninguem pode matar

It is the soundtrack of your ever-flowing life
It is the wind beneath your feet that makes you fly
It is the beautiful game that you choose to play
When you step out into the world to start your day
You show your face and take it in and scream and pray
You're gonna win it for yourself and us today
It is the gold, the green, the yellow and the grey
The red and sweat and tears, the love you go. Hey!

Como uma força, com uma força
Como uma força que ninguem pode parar
Como uma força, com uma força
Como uma fome que ninguem pode matar

Força, força, força, força, força

Closer to the sky, closer, way up high, mais perto do céu, mais perto do céu

Como uma força, com uma força
Como uma força que ninguem pode parar
Como uma força, com uma força
Como uma fome que ninguem pode matar

Força (oh), força (oh), força, força, força

Este amor... Este amor...
Tão grande, Tão forte
Come on!

Saturdays

Hot motel
Stuffy inside
I know well
These eleven walls
Hot black tar
I tan my legs
I rest my heart
And dream of the city

Magazine
And diet coke
I'm not a joke
This is me
Damaged leg
Heavy cart
Plastic cups
Linen mart

Rock garden
Where I used to play
People stare
Part of their day
Coffee break
Lunch at noon
Pumpernickel steak
Green and orange room

Done my list (done my list)
Make my way (make my way)
To help my mother (help my mother)
End her day (end her day)
Fresh cut grass (fresh cut grass)
parking lot (parking lot)
We roll on out (roll on out)
We got a lot (got a lot)

We're on our way (on our way)
Roll the windows down (windows down)
And scream out loud (scream out loud)
Oh we're tired now

Take it home (take it home)
Stop on the way (on my way)
To the bakery (bakery)
For some fruit and cake (fruit and cake)
And home I lay (home I lay)
After a shower clean (shower clean)
I hit my head (hit my head)
And I dream

Picture Perfect

Picture perfect a life that you saw in a magazine
Or maybe a travelling book
Wanted to get on that plane and fly away
Cuz you are a rock star deep down inside
You walk with a swagger, got nothin' to hide
Cigarette in your mouth, a cuff on your jeans
Your sideburns are perfect, you're perfect and lean
So you made an oil painting to immortalize
All of the hope and vision in your eyes
In your leisure coat and cowboy hat
North American records and so much to bat for

Please bring me along
Please bring me along
Cuz I want to see everything you have to offer me

Get a job lifting cement
Oh, it's so dry, when it rains it gets wet
And the village was great, but now it's a suburb
You left behind half of all that you had learnt
You relearn a couple things along the way
The thrift store so clean all for half what you'd pay
So you try everything on, on for size
And drop top your Camaro and go for a ride

Please bring me along
Please bring me along
Cuz I want to see everything you have to offer me

And I don't mind to sit here and waste all my time
Oh, but this world is not mine to define
And I wanna shine

Please bring me along
Please take me away
I don't want to stay

And I want to see everything you have to offer me
And I want to see everything you have to offer me
And I want to see everything you have to offer me
And I want to see everything you have to offer me

I want to see everything the world has to offer me
I want to see everything the world has to offer me
I want to show everything I have to offer it
I want to show everything I have to offer it now

The Grass Is Green

Oh, I once had something
Something that was so good
Better than the last thing I touched
Then turned right around on that something
And I figured I didn't like that much

Oh yeah, the grass is green
But can you tell me, can you feel it, I wanna feel it
Oh yeah, the grass is green
But I think I stained my jeans and now everybody knows that I been in it

I am a believer
But as I was standing
In line, somebody took my place
Yes, I'm a believer, never mind what they say
I got so tired along the way

Oh yeah, the grass is green
But can you tell me, can you feel it, I just wanna feel it
Oh yeah, the grass is green
But I think I stained my jeans and now everybody knows thah I been in it

I've got a skeleton that's deeper than any closet
And a bomb that I will drop on it
But you opened up to me
'Til I could only see the beauty in your dishonesty

Oh yeah, the grass is green
But can you tell me, can you feel it, you just wanna feel it
Oh yeah the grass is green
But it think I stained my jeans and now, baby, you can tell that I been in it

Oh yeah, the grass is green but it's not what it seems cuz when you think
You want it you just need it
Forget just what you need
The clock is ticking and this life is a train, man, I think you're on it
But it's what you wanted, and what you needed
It's what you wanted, and what you needed
Or is it what I needed and what you wanted
