1274. Christmastime - Aimee Mann

It's Christmas again, December is here
Hasn't it been a wonderful year?
With all the plans you're making
And all the time you're taking
Greet the next one with good cheer
Won't you dear
As you ring the chime
Just because its Christmastime

And on the tree all the ornaments go
Tinsel will cover where the branches don't grow
There's lights on all the houses
Spouses with their spouses
Children playing in the snow

One in the sleigh and one upon the horse
Keeping on track's another matter, of course
That's the great divisor
You are now the wiser
Maybe just a bit less so
Touch and go
'Til you stop on a dime
All alone at Christmastime

It's Christmas again, December is here
What did you wish for, what did you fear
Look at your behavior
Looking for a savior
Underneath the mistletoe
You should know
That it is less a crime
To be all alone at Christmastime

1273. Four Out Of Five - Arctic Monkeys

Advertise in imaginative ways, start your free trial today
Come on in, the water's lovely
Look, you could meet someone you like
During the meteor strike, it is that easy
Lunar surface on a Saturday night, dressed up in silver and white
With coloured Old Grey Whistle Test lights

[Chorus]
Take it easy for a little while
Come and stay with us, it’s such an easy flight
Cute new places keep on popping up
Since the exodus, it's all getting gentrified
I put a taqueria on the roof, it was well reviewed
Four stars out of five
And that's unheard of

[Verse 2]
Mr. Bridge and Tunnel on the Starlight Express
The head of special effects in my mind’s eye
Hokey Cokey with the opposite sex
The things you try to forget, doesn't time fly?
I'm in no position to give advice, I don't want to be nice
And you know that

[Chorus]
Take it easy for a little while
Come and stay with us, it's such an easy flight
Cute new places keep on popping up
Around Clavius, it's all getting gentrified
The Information-Action Ratio is the place to go
And you will not recognise the old headquarters

[Bridge]
All the nights that never happened and the days that don't exist
At the Information-Action Ratio
The only time that we stop laughing is to breathe or steal a kiss
I can get you on the list for all the clubs
I can lift you up another semitone

[Chorus]
Take it easy for a little while (Take it easy for a little while)
Come and stay with us, it's such an easy flight
Cute new places keep on popping up
(Cute new places keep on popping up)
Since the exodus, it’s all getting gentrified
The Information-Action Ratio (The Information-Action Ratio)
Is the place to go, four stars out of five
Take it easy for a little while (Take it easy for a little while)
Come and stay with us, now, it’s such an easy flight
Cute new places keep on popping up
(Cute new places keep on popping up)
Around Clavius, it's all getting gentrified
I put a taqueria on the moon (The Information-Action Ratio)
It got rave reviews, four stars out of five

[Outro]
Take it easy for a little while (Take it easy for a little while)
Come and stay with us, four stars out of five
Take it easy for a little while (Take it easy for a little while)
Come and stay with us, four stars out of five
Take it easy for a little while (Take it easy for a little while)
Come and stay with us, four stars out of five
(Take it easy for a little while)
Four stars out of five

1272. Come - Jain

Black burn, I feel so alone
Without you boy
Now I'm here now
I'm hanging out in the street
Thinking about reactions over actions
Walking on the sky of my dreams
Come, come, my baby come
I will show you the world
Come, come, my baby come
I will cover your nightmares
Come, come, my baby come
I will love you forever
Come, come, my baby come
I will not let you go
My love, I just feel so lost
Without you boy
I am yours even if time has passed
Take me away
From this impetuous world
Leaving this jail of my mind
Come, come, my baby come
I will show you the world
Come, come, my baby come
I will cover your nightmares
Come, come, my baby come
I will love you forever
Come, come, my baby come
I will not let you go
My soul, my soul is in Africa, with you boy
Come, come, my baby come
I will show you the world
Come, come, my baby come
I will cover your nightmares
Come, come, my baby come
I will love you forever
Come, come, my baby come
I will not let you go
My soul, is in Africa with you boy
Looking at the stars
On this diamond sky
Giving you my smile
So you can keep it on your mind
Floating on your blazing eyes
Come, come, my baby come
I will show you the world
Come, come, my baby come
I will cover your nightmares
Come, come, my baby come
I will love you forever
Come, come, my baby come
I will not let you go

1271. R U mine? - Arctic Monkeys

I'm a puppet on a string
Tracy island, time-traveling diamond
Could a shaped heartaches
Come to find ya fall in some velvet morning
Years too late
She's a silver lining lone ranger riding
Through an open space
In my mind when she's not right there beside me
I go crazy 'cause here isn't where I wanna be
And satisfaction feels like a distant memory
And I can't help myself
All I wanna hear her say is are you mine?
Are you mine?
Are you mine?
Are you mine?
I guess what I'm trying to say is I need the deep end
Keep imagining meeting, wished away entire lifetimes
Unfair we're not somewhere misbehaving for days
Great escape lost track of time and space
She's a silver lining climbing on my desire
And I go crazy 'cause here isn't where I wanna be
And satisfaction feels like a distant memory
And I can't help myself
All I wanna hear her say is are you mine?
Are you mine?
Are you mine?
Are you mine?
And the thrill of the chase moves in mysterious ways
So in case I'm mistaken
I just wanna hear you say you got me baby
Are you mine?
She's a silver lining lone ranger riding through an open space
In my mind when she's not right there beside me
And I go crazy cause here isn't where I wanna be
And satisfaction feels like a distant memory
And I can't help myself
All I wanna hear her say is are you mine?
Well are you mine? (are you mine tomorrow?)
Are you mine? (or just mine tonight?)
Are you mine? (are you mine tomorrow?)
(Or just mine tonight?)

1270. Guilty party - The National

You're sleeping night and day
How d'you do it?
Me I am wide awake
Feeling defeated

I say your name
I say I'm sorry
I know it's not working
I'm no holiday

It's nobody's fault
No guilty party
We just got nothing
Nothing left to say

Another year gets away
Another Summer of love
I don't know why I care
We miss it every Summer

I say your name
I say I'm sorry
I'm the one doing this
There's no other way

It's nobody's fault
No guilty party
I just got nothing, nothing left to say
It all, all catches up to me
It all, all catches up to me all the time

I say your name
I say I'm sorry
I know it's not working,
I'm no holiday

It's nobody's fault
No guilty party
We just got nothing,
Nothing left to say

I say your name
I say I'm sorry
I'm the one doing this, there's no other way

It's nobody's fault
No guilty party
I just got nothing, nothing left to say

It all, all just catches up to me
It all, all catches up to me all the time

1269. The system only dreams in total darkness - The National

Maybe I listen more than you think
And I can tell that somebody sold you
We said we’ve never let anyone in
We said we’d only die of lonely secrets

The system only dreams in total darkness
Why are you hiding from me?
We’re in a different kind of thing now
All night you’re talking to God

I thought that this would all work out after a while
Now you’re saying that I’m asking for too much attention
Also no other faith is light enough for this place
We said we’d only die of lonely secrets

The system only dreams in total darkness
Why are you hiding from me?
We’re in a different kind of thing now
All night you’re talking to God

And I cannot explain it
Oh, any other, any other way
I cannot explain it
Oh, any other, any other way

The system only dreams in total darkness
Why are you hiding from me?
We’re in a different kind of thing now
All night you’re talking to God

And I cannot explain it
Oh, any other, any other way
I cannot explain it
Oh, any other, any other way
I cannot explain it
Oh, any other, any other way
I cannot explain it
Oh, any other, any other way

1268. I walk a little faster - Fiona Apple

Pretending that we'll meet
Each time I turn a corner
I walk a little faster

Pretending life is sweet
Cause love's around the corner
I walk a little faster

Can't begin to see my future shine as yet
No sign as yet, you're mine as yet
Rushing to a face I can't define as yet
Keep bumping into walls and taking lots of falls
And even though I meet 'round each and every corner
With nothing but disaster
I set my chin a little higher, I hope a little longer
Build a little stronger castle in the air
And thinking you'll be there, I walk a little faster

Can't begin to see my future shine as yet
No sign as yet, you're mine as yet
Rushing to a face I can't define as yet
Keep bumping into walls and taking lots of falls
But even though I meet 'round each and every corner
With nothing but disaster
I set my chin a little higher, I hope a little longer
Build a little stronger castle in the air
And thinking you'll be there, I walk a little faster

1267. Fluorescent adolescent - Arctic Monkeys

You used to get it in your fishnets
Now you only get it in your night dress
Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness
Landed in a very common crisis

Everything's in order in a black hole
Nothing seems as pretty as the past though
That Bloody Mary's lacking in Tabasco
Remember when you used to be a rascal?

Oh, the boy's a slag, the best you ever had
The best you ever had is just a memory and those dreams
Not as daft as they seem, not as daft as they seem
My love, when you dream them up

Flicking through a little book of sex tips
Remember when the boys were all electric?
Now when she's told she's gonna get it
I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget it

Clinging to not getting sentimental
Said she wasn't going but she went still
Likes her gentlemen not to be gentle
Was it a Mecca dauber or a betting pencil?

Oh, the boy's a slag, the best you ever had
The best you ever had is just a memory and those dreams
Weren't daft as they seem, not as daft as they seem
My love, when you dream them up oh, Flo
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Where did you go?

You're falling about
You took a left off Last Laugh Lane
Just sounding it out
But you're not coming back again
You're falling about
You took a left off Last Laugh Lane
You were just sounding it out
But you're not coming back again

You used to get it in your fishnets
(Falling about) Now you only get it in your night dress
Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness
(You took a left off Last Laugh Lane) Landed in a very common crisis
Everything's in order in a black hole
Nothing seems as pretty as the past though (You were just sounding it out)
(You're not coming back again) That Bloody Mary's lacking in Tabasco
Remember when you used to be a rascal?

1266. Nothing at all - Ben Harper and Charlie Musselwhite

On the kindness of strangers
I’ve come to depend
For a shoulder to lean
Or a hand to lend
This world’s too hard
To not have someone break my fall
We climb this world stone by stone
We love each other bone by bone
There are sins for which
One just cannot atone
There’s a price we pay
For the places we lay
For putting it all on the line
So far down the only sound
Is something leaving you behind
What if we end just where we begin
Everywhere we go
We have already been
Would you relive the pain
Or would you call it a draw
Nothing at all
All or nothing at all

1265. Ten million slaves - Otis Taylor

Rain and fire crossed that ocean
Another mad man done struck again
Rain and fire crossed that ocean
Another mad man done struck again

Sitting down here fallout shelter
Paint my walls, twice a week
Sitting down here fallout shelter
Think about the slaves, long time ago

Ten million slaves crossed that ocean
They had shackles on their legs
Ten million slaves crossed that ocean
They had shackles on their legs

Don't know where, where they're going
Don't know where, where they've been
Don't know where, where they're going
Don't know where, where they've been

Sun goes out, you'll be standing
You'll be standing by yourself
Sun goes out, you'll be standing
You'll be standing by yourself

Ten million slaves crossed that ocean
They had shackles on their legs
Ten million slaves crossed that ocean
They had shackles on their legs

Don't know where, where they're going
Don't know where, where they've been
Don't know where, where they're going
Don't know where, where they've been

Ten million slaves crossed that ocean
They had shackles on their legs
Food goes bad, food looks rancid
But they ate it anyway

Don't know where, where they're going
Don't know where, where they've been
Don't know where, where they're going
Don't know where, where they've been

Sun goes out, you'll be standing
You'll be standing all alone
Sun goes out, you'll be standing
You'll be standing all alone
All alone, all alone, all alone, all alone, all alone

1264. Ragged wood - Fleet Foxes

Come down from the mountain, you have been gone too long
The spring is upon us, follow my only song
Settle down with me by the fire of my yearning
You should come back home, back on your own now

The world is alive now, in and outside our home
You run through the forest, settle before the sun
Darling, I can barely remember you beside me
You should come back home, back on your own now

You should come back home, back on your own now

In the evening light, when the woman of the woods came by
To give to you the word of the old man
In the morning tide, when the sparrow and the seagull fly
And Johnathan and Evelyn get tied

Lie to me if you will
At the top of Beringer Hill
Tell me anything you want
Any old lie will do
Call me back to you

Back to you

Lie to me if you will
At the top of Beringer Hill
Tell me anything you want
Any old lie will do
Call me back to you
Back to you
Back to you
Back to you
Back to you
Back to you

1263. Step into my office baby - Belle & Sebastian

She called me up today
Meet me down at the old cafe
I jumped into the shower
I was getting my marching orders

We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
I want to give you the job
A chance of overtime
Say, my place at nine?

She'd never stand for any lies
She's got an Out Tray full of guys
I could sense a breath, a whole new feeling
Now she says she wants to call a meeting

We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
I want to give you the job
A chance of overtime
Say, my place at nine?

I'm a slave to work
I'm only living when I walk amongst the office staff
And catch up with the office wag
I'll be in bed by nine
My curtains drawn
My thoughts composed
I get to work on time

She gave me some dictation
But my strength is in administration
I took down all she said
I even took down her little red dress

We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
I'm want to give you the job
I'm pushing for a raise
I've been pushing now for days

My output is in decline
I was burned out after Thatcher
My banner I laid down with a sigh
Now I doubt if I'll ever catch her

I've got to change my ways
Dress for business every day
A sharp suit and a kipper tie
A big arrow pointing to my fly

Have you shaved for work yet baby
Don't go out the boss is waiting

We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
I want to give you the job
A chance of overtime
Say, my place at nine?

1262. When you die - MGMT

I’m not that nice
I’m mean and I’m evil
Don’t call me nice
I’m gonna eat your heart out
I’ve got some work to do
Baby, I'm ready, I'm ready, ready, ready to blow my lid off

Yeah

Go fuck yourself
You heard me right
Don’t call me nice again
Don’t you have somewhere to be at seven thirty?
Baby, I’m ready, I'm ready, ready, ready to blow my brains out

You die
And words won’t do anything
It's permanently night
And I won’t feel anything
We'll all be laughing with you when you die

Words won’t do anything
It's permanently night
And I won’t feel anything
We'll all be laughing with you when you die

Go fuck yourself
I’m mean, not nice
You said it twice
You said it twice
Don’t you have somewhere to be at seven thirty?

I’ve got some work to do
I’m gonna eat your heart out
I heard you the first time

1261. Brianstorm - Arctic Monkeys

Brian
Top marks for not trying
So kind of you to bless us
With your effortlessness
We're grateful, so strangely comforted

And I wonder
Are you putting us under
'Cause we can't take our eyes
Off the t-shirt and ties combination?
Well, see you later, innovator

Some want to kiss, some want to kick you
There's not a net you couldn't slip through
Or at least that's the impression I get
'Cause you're smooth, and you're wet
And she's not aware yet
But she's yours

She'll be saying, use me
Show me the jacuzzi
I imagine that it's there, on a plate
You're whole rendezvous rate
Means that you'll never be frightened
To make them wait for a while
I doubt it's your style
Not to get what you set
Out to acquire the eyes are on fire
You are the unforecasted storm
Hup

Calm, collected and commanding
(Top marks for not trying)
You leave the other stories standing
With your renditions and jokes
Bet there's hundreds of blokes
That have wept 'cause you've stolen their

Thunder
Are you putting us under
'Cause we can't take our eyes
Off the t-shirt and ties combination

Well, see you later, innovator

1260. Junk of the heart (happy) - The Kooks

Junk of the heart is junk of my mind
So hard to leave you all alone
We get so drunk that we can hardly see
What used to that, but you aren't me baby
See I notice nothing makes you shatter no no
You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart
But are you mine?

I wanna make you happy, I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive at night
I wanna make you happy
If you're a good girl tonight
Yeah

A ship to be sunk, life is no race
When I'm not happy I'm in disgrace
So I spend time with pissing on you oh
You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart
But are you mine?

I wanna make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive at night
I wanna make you happy
If you're a good girl tonight
Yeah

Still I notice nothing makes you shatter no no
You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart
But are you mine?
I wanna make you happy, I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make you happy, I wanna make you feel alive at night
I wanna make you happy
If you're a good girl tonight

1259. Always where I need to be - The Kooks

She don't know who she is
Oh I can't take her anywhere
Do whatever comes naturally to you
You know she just don't care
You know she just don't care

'Cause I'm always where I need to be
And I always thought
I would end up with you, eventually
Do dodo do do do do
Do dodo do do do do
Do dodo do do

Now I see her again
I ask to be her hummingbird
Whisper words in her ear
Oh now you know I just don't care

'Cause I'm always where I need to be
And I always thought
I would end up with you, eventually
Do dodo do do do do
Do dodo do do do do
Do dodo do do

I'm a man, I'm a man I'm a man on the scene
I'm a man, and I can be so obscene
Because I always think that I know how to be
But I always thought I would end up with you, eventually
Do dodo do do do do
Do dodo do do do do
Do dodo do do
I'm a man, I'm a man I'm a man on the scene
I'm a man, and I can be so obscene

1258. Metamorphosis 2 - Philip Glass

1257. A Sunday smile - Beirut

All I want is the best for our lives my dear,
And you know my wishes are sincere.
What's to say for the days I cannot bear

A Sunday smile you wore it for a while.
A cemetery mile we paused and sang.
A Sunday smile you wore it for a while.
A cemetery mile we paused and sang.
A Sunday smile and we felt true. (and)

We burnt to the ground
Left a view to admire
With buildings inside church of white.
We burnt to the ground left a grave to admire.
And as we reach for the sky, reach the church of white.

A Sunday smile you wore it for a while.
A cemetery mile we paused and sang.
A Sunday smile you wore it for a while.
A cemetery mile we paused and sang.
A Sunday smile and we felt true.

1256. Put your money on me - Arcade Fire

Put your money on me
If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
All your money on me
I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy

Put your money on me
Go tuck me into bed, and wake me when I'm dead
I know that you gotta be free
But I'm never gonna let it go

If there was a race
A race for your heart
It started before you were born
Above the chloroform sky
Clouds made of ambien
Sitting on carpets in the basement of heaven

We were born innocent, but it lies today
And baby you can give all the money away
But if there's a race, a race for your heart
It's over, before it starts

Singing put your money on me
If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
All your money on me
I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy

Put your money on me
Go tuck me into bed, and wake me when I'm dead
I know that you gotta be free
But I'm never gonna let it go

All my presents are broken, before they're open
And the promises, the second they're spoken
I know I've been different
My skin keeps shedding
My mother was crying on the day of our wedding

Trumpets of angels call for my head
But I fight through the ether and I quit when I'm dead
If you want to know who'll be there in the end
When you bury me baby, I'll still be your friend

Singing put your money on me
If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
All your money on me
I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy

Put your money on me
Or tuck me into bed, and wake me when I'm dead
I know that you gotta be free
But I'm never gonna let it go

Singing put your money on all your money on me
I know it's not the last time
Put your money on all your money on me
(Put your money on me) I know it's not easy

The Silicon Valleys melted back into silicon
We'll find a way to survive

Singing put your money on me
If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
All your money on me (All your money on me)
I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy

Put your money on me (Put your money on me)
Go tuck me into bed, then wake me when I'm dead
I know that you gotta be free (I know that you gotta be free)
But I'm never gonna let it go

Singing put your money on all your money on me
(Put your money on me) I know it's not the last time
Put your money on all your money on me (put your money on)
I know it's not easy

1255. Mystery of love - Sufjan Stevens

Oh, to see without my eyes
The first time that you kissed me
Boundless by the time I cried
I built your walls around me
White noise, what an awful sound
Fumbling by Rogue River
Feel my feet above the ground
Hand of God, deliver me

Oh, oh whoa whoa is me
The first time that you touched me
Oh, will wonders ever cease?
Blessed be the mystery of love

Lord, I no longer believe
Drowned in living waters
Cursed by the love that I received
From my brother's daughter
Like Hephaestion, who died
Alexander's lover
Now my riverbed has dried
Shall I find no other?

Oh, oh whoa whoa is me
I'm running like a plover
Now I'm prone to misery
The birthmark on your shoulder reminds me

How much sorrow can I take?
Blackbird on my shoulder
And what difference does it make
When this love is over?
Shall I sleep within your bed
River of unhappiness
Hold your hands upon my head
Till I breathe my last breath

Oh, oh whoa whoa is me
The last time that you touched me
Oh, will wonders ever cease?
Blessed be the mystery of love

1254. In particular - Blonde Redhead

Lying on my back,
I heard music,
Felt unsure and catastrophic,
Had to tell myself it's only music,
It blows my mind,
But it's like that.

Is anyone there ?
What could you tell me ?
Afraid of what ?
Would you ever know ?
Everyone else is really boring,
Anyone else wouldn't be good enough.

Some place safe I would imagine,
Someone new would be so cruel,
Incurable paranoiac,
Hysterical depression.

x xx
Alex I'm your only friend.
x xx
Alex your love will sing for you.

1253. The morning stars - Leithauser + Rostam

The scotch bonnet shells
From your bedside drawer
I snatched them myself
Off the ocean floor
Are strung around your neck
On a white boot lace
You'd wear them like that
Back when we used to date

[Chorus]
If the man that you need
Honestly wasn't me
Tell me, honey
Who could that be?

If the man that you need
Honestly wasn't me
Tell me, honey
Who could that be?

'Cause I'm the one
Who rattles all
Your windows
And your doors
Howling in the night
Beyond your walls
Beneath your floors

At dawn I retire
With my palms on the glass
I stroll through the arcade
With the happy rats
And my hat fell in the river
And a Portuguese girl swooned
"You're as a free as the water
But it's harder to love"

[Chorus]
So if the man that you need
Honestly wasn't me
Tell me, honey
Who could that be?

If the man that you need
Honestly wasn't me
Tell me, honey
Who could that be?

Oh, I'm the one
Who rattles all
Your windows
And your doors
Howling in the night
Beyond your walls
Beneath your floors

In other words... I'm your ghost

And we'll all run together
Underneath the morning stars
Won't you come out with us anymore?
Won't you come out with us anymore?
Why won't you come out with me anymore?
Why don't you come out with me anymore?

1252. You ain't that young kid - Leithauser + Rostam

On the first night in June
In a very crowded room
The band was going on
When you told me we were done
So I couldn't play that song
Cause I wrote it about you
Yeah it always seems to come back to you

But I don't have to tell you
Cause you've heard it all by now
I'm just one single voice in a choir
You won't hear me anymore
Just a bassist thumbing a tune
But that rumble reminds me of you

All the flash, all the fire
All the foggy drinks perspired
We were tucked into a booth
In a far corner of the room
And the music is loud
And it's just bringing me down
Cause I know that I lost you

The parking lot was dark
And I walked out of the bar
Found some folks hanging around
And we're on some highway now
And the windows are down
And I never felt so sad
So I just tried not to think about you
Oh the final spot of sunlight
Is dying on the dash
On some way too long road with some way too young folks
If the man that you knew
Honestly wasn't me
Tell me honey: who could that be?

There's a letter I wrote
That I'll never send
Where I admit my weakness
And I ask to see you again
Yeah I heard you were sorry
By someone you call a friend
In a letter I wrote
That I'll never send

Now there's ash in my heart
Where I used to burn
The young voices have vanished
The old whispers return
But there's no one to hurt me
And there's no one to hurt
Cause there's ash in my heart
Where I used to burn

Pictures of us dancing
From a lifetime, a lifetime ago
You in a green dress and I in a tweed vest
In a blurry gang of ghosts

Pictures of us dancing
From a thousand years ago
Late enough to kiss you
Still too early to go

1251. Molly's chambers - Kings of Leon

Free- is all that she could bleed
That's why'll she'll never stay
White- bare naked in the night
Just lookin' for some play
Just another girl that wants to rule the world
Any time or place
And when she gets into your head
You know she's there to stay

You want it
She's got it
Molly's Chambers gonna change your mind
She's got your
Your pistol

Slow- She's burnin' in your soul
With whispers in your ear
It's okay I'll give it anyway
Just get me out of here
You'll plead- you'll get down on your knees
For just another taste
And when you think she's let you in
That's when she fades away

You want it
She's got it
Molly's Chambers gonna change your mind
She's got your
Your pistol

1250. You don't own me - Lesley Gore

You don't own me, I'm not just one of your many toys
You don't own me, don't say I can't go with other boys

Don't tell me what to do
Don't tell me what to say
Please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display,
'Cause You don't own me, don't try to change me in any way
You don't own me, don't tie me down 'cause I'd never stay

I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you
I'm young and I love to be young
I'm free and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please

A-a-a-nd don't tell me what to do
Oh-h-h-h don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't you dare put me on display

Hey, I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That is all that I ask of you

I am young and I love to be young
I'm free and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever...

1249. To your love - Fiona Apple

Here's another speech you wish I'd swallow
Another cue for you to fold your ears
Another train of thought too hard to follow
Chuggin' along to the song that belongs to the shifting of gears

Please forgive me for my distance
The pain is evident in my existence
Please forgive me for my distance
The shame is manifest in my resistance

To your love
To your love
To your love

I would've warned you, but really, what's the point?
Caution could but rarely ever helps
Don't be down, my demeanor tends to disappoint
It's hard enough even trying to be civil to myself

Please forgive me for my distance
The pain is evident in my existence
Please forgive me for my distance
The shame is manifest in my resistance

To your love
To your love
To your love

My derring-do allows me to
Dance the rigadoon around you
But by the time I'm close to you
I lose my desideratum and now you
So now you

Have it, so tell me, baby, what's the word?
Am I your gal or should I get out of town?
I just need to be reassured
Do you just deal it out or can you deal with all that I lay
Down?

Please forgive me for my distance
The pain is evident in my existence
Please forgive me for my distance
The shame is manifest in my resistance

To your love
To your love
To your love

1248. Ordinary world - Duran Duran

Came in from a rainy Thursday
On the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly

I turned on the lights, the TV
And the radio
Still I can't escape the ghost of you

What has happened to it all?
Crazy, some'd say
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Passion or coincidence
Once prompted you to say
"Pride will tear us both apart"
Well now pride's gone out the window
Cross the rooftops
Run away
Left me in the vacuum of my heart

What is happening to me?
Crazy, some'd say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Papers in the roadside
Tell of suffering and greed
Here today, forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here besides the news
Of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk

And I don't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Every one
Is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one
Is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one
Is my world
Every one
Is my world

1247. The shape of water - Alexandre Desplat

1246. Lipstick - David Carbonara

1245. Una musica brutal - Gotan Project

Descubrimos vos y yo
En el triste carnaval
Una musica brutal
Melodias de dolor

Despertamos vos y yo
Y en el lento divagar
Una musica brutal
Encendio nuestra pasion

Dame tu calor,
Bebete mi amor

1244. Claire de lune - Claude Debussy

1243. Take five - Dave Brubeck

1242. The night Josh Tillman came to our apartment - Father John Misty

Oh, I just love the kind of woman
Who can walk over a man
I mean like a god damn marching band
She says, like literally
Music is the air she breathes
And the malaprops make me want to fucking scream
I wonder if she even knows what that word means
Well, it's literally not that
Of the few main things I hate about her
One's her petty, vogue ideas
Someone's been told too many times
They're beyond their years
By every half-wit of distinction she keeps around
And now every insufferable convo
Features her patiently explaining the cosmos
Of which she's in the middle
Oh my God, I swear this never happens
Lately, I can't stop the wheels from spinning
I feel so unconvincing
And I fumble with your buttons
She blames her excess on my influence
But gladly Hoovers all my drugs
I found her naked with her best friend in the tub
We sang "Silent Night" in three parts which was fun
'Til she said that she sounds just like Sarah Vaughan
I hate that soulful affectation white girls put on
Why don't you move to the Delta?
I obliged later on
When you begged me to choke ya

1241. Blue bucket of gold - Sufjan Stevens

My blue bucket of gold
Friend, why don’t you love me?
Once the myth has been told
The lens deforms it as lightning

Raise your right hand
Tell me you want me in your life
Or raise your red flag
Just when I want you in my life

Search for things to extol
Friend, the fables delight me
My blue bucket of gold
Lord, touch me with lightning

Raise your right hand
Tell me you want me in your life
Or raise your red flag
Just when I want you in my life

1240. Don't stop - Fleetwood Mac

If you wake up and don't want to smile,
If it takes just a little while,
Open your eyes and look at the day,
You'll see things in a different way.

Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Don't stop, it'll soon be here,
It'll be, better than before,
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone.

Why not think about times to come,
And not about the things that you've done,
If your life was bad to you,
Just think what tomorrow will do.

Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Don't stop, it'll soon be here,
It'll be, better than before,
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone.

All I want is to see you smile,
If it takes just a little while,
I know you don't believe that it's true,
I never meant any harm to you.

Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Don't stop, it'll soon be here,
It'll be, better than before,
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone.

Don't you look back,
Don't you look back.

1239. The selfish giant - Damon Albarn

Celebrate the passing drugs
Put them on the back seat while
They're coursing in your blood

'Cause there are monsters oh
Walking down Argyle Street
Where the evening colors go (it's true)

I had a dream that you were leaving
It's hard to be a lover when the TV's on
And nothing is in your eyes

I had a dream that you were leaving
Where every atom falling in the universe
Is passing through our minds

Press yourself to me right now
Push yourself deep down now
To the dark hills I must go
Where the shadows hide
Waiting for the final call
It's coming down the line

I had a dream that you were leaving
It's hard to be a lover when the TV's on
And nothing is in your eyes

I had a dream that you were leaving
Where every atom falling in the universe
Is passing through our minds

I had a dream that you were leaving
I had a dream that you were leaving
It's hard to be a lover when the TV's on
And nothing is in your eyes

I had a dream that you were leaving
Where every atom falling in the universe
Is passing through our minds

I had a dream that you were leaving
I had a dream that you were leaving

1238. House of Woodcock - Jonny Greenwood

1237. You never loved me - Aimee Mann

Boy, when you go, you go
Three thousand miles just so I'll know
You never loved me
You never loved me

Then when you're gone, you're gone
I know the tumbleweed lexicon:
You never loved me
You never loved me

Three thousand miles to sit in a room
With a vanishing groom
Till it undoes me
A helium cell like a hermit crab shell
Was a blank, you could tell
It never was me
'Cause you will never love me
You never loved me

Boy, when you're through, you're through
Nobody argues the point like you
You never loved me
You never loved me

And hey, when you're right, you're right
We'll stipulate that I lost the fight
You never loved me
You never loved me

Three thousand miles to sit in a room
With a vanishing groom
Till it undoes me
A helium cell like a hermit crab shell
Was a blank, you could tell
It never was me
'Cause you will never love me
You never loved me

1236. A paz não te cai bem - Clã

Se o amor faz sofrer
Se a paixão faz doer
O que o ódio fará

Não soube o que dizer
Magoei sem querer
Mas não queres perdoar

Discutiste
Insististe
E pior não me ouviste
Nem me viste chorar

Eu cedi
Concordei
Admiti que errei
Mas só queres guerrear

E eu sei
Não tem fim
Não queres a paz que trago em mim
Não Não

Argumentos que ferem
Silêncios torturam
Gestos são letais
E afinal, pra quê mais?
Concordar jamais
Mesmo que eu diga sim

E eu sei
Não tem fim
Não queres a paz que trago em mim
Vi também que a paz em ti não fica bem
Não Não

Oh não
E eu vou
Vou desandar daqui
Antes que o céu
Decida desabar sobre mim

Eu sei
Não tem fim
Tu não queres a paz que trago em mim
Vi também que a paz em ti não fica bem

Não tem fim
Tu não queres a paz que trago em mim
Sei também que a paz em ti não fica bem
Não Não

1235. Tira a teima - Clã

Se um dia me aproximar de ti
Não penses que é só um flirt
Não julgues que é um filme
Que já viste em qualquer parte
Pensa bem antes de agires
Evita ser imprudente
Faz a carta do meu signo
E vê à lupa o ascendente

Tem cuidado e tira a teima
Vê aquilo que sou
Tem cuidado e tira a teima

Tu não sonhas ao que venho
Não sabes do que sou capaz
Eu dou tudo quanto tenho
Não funciono a meio gás
Vem sentar-te à minha frente
Diz-me o que vês em mim
Não respondas já a quente
Pondera antes de dizer sim

Tem cuidado e tira a teima
Porque aquilo que sou fere, rasga e queima
Tem cuidado e tira a teima
Porque aquilo que sou fere, rasga e queima

Diz-me diz-me se vês o granito
Onde a cidade, os grandes temas
Diz-me se vês o amor infinito
Ou somente um par de algemas

Tem cuidado e tira a teima
Vê aquilo que sou
Tem cuidado e tira a teima
Vê aquilo que sou

1234. Tell me baby - Red Hot Chili Peppers

They come from every state to find
Some dreams were meant to be declined
Tell the man what did you have in mind
What have you come to do?

No turning water into wine
No learning while you're in the line
I'll take you to the broken sign
You see these lights are blue

Come and get it
Lost it at the city limit
Say goodbye
'Cause they will find a way to trim it
Everybody
Lookin' for a silly gimmick
Gotta get away
Can't take it for another minute

This town is made of many things
Just look at what the current brings
So high, it's only promising
This place was made on you

Tell me, baby, what's your story
Where you come from
And where you wanna go this time?
Tell me, lover, are you lonely?
The thing we need is
Never all that hard to find
Tell me, baby, what's your story
Where do you come from
And where you wanna go this time?
You're so lovely, are you lonely?
Giving up on the innocence you left behind

Some claim to have the fortitude
Too shrewd to blow the interlude
Sustaining pain to set a mood
Step out to be renewed

I'll move you like a baritone
Jungle brothers on the microphone
Getting over with an undertone
It's time to turn to stone

Chitty chitty, baby
When your nose is in the nitty gritty
Life could be a little sweet
But life could be a little shitty
What a pity
Boston and a Kansas city
Looking for a hundred
But you only ever found a fitty

Three fingers in the honeycomb
You ring just like a xylophone
Devoted to the chromosome
The day that you left home

Tell me, baby, what's your story
Where you come from
And where you wanna go this time?
Tell me, lover, are you lonely?
The thing we need is
Never all that hard to find
Tell me, baby, what's your story
Where you come from
And where you wanna go this time?
You're so lovely, are you lonely?
Giving up on the innocence you left behind

Tell me, baby, what's your story
Where you come from
And where you wanna go this time?
Tell me, lover, are you lonely?
The thing we need is
Never all that hard to find
Tell me, baby, what's your story
Where you come from
And where you wanna go this time?
You're so lovely, are you lonely?
Giving up on the innocence you left behind

1233. Last flowers - Radiohead

Appliances have gone berserk
I cannot keep up
Treading on people's toes
Snot-nosed little punk

And I can't face the evening straight
And you can't offer me escape
Houses move and houses speak
If you take me there you'll get relief
Believe, believe, believe, believe

And if I'm gonna talk
I just wanna talk
Please don't interrupt
Just sit back and listen

'Cause I can't face the evening straight
And you can't offer me escape
Houses move and houses speak
If you take me there you'll get relief
Believe, believe, believe, believe

It's too much
Too bright
Too powerful

Too much
Too bright
Too powerful

1232. Canção aranha - Deolinda

Há canções que pedem tempo
e por não ser o momento
sei que esta canção não é pra já

É para um dia concreto
que ninguém sabe ao certo
quando ele com ela se cruzar

É que os dois ainda não sabem
que já têm de vantagem
a canção que os irá juntar
e que os vai cantar

Sei que ele anda um pouco triste
por achar que não existe
um tão grande amor
como o que perdeu

E ela anda triste também
por não encontrar ninguém
e achar que a solidão venceu

Mas esta canção aranha
paciente e com manha
uma grande teia já teceu

Seja à noite num concerto
a correr para o emprego
ou à tarde na mesma estação

A canção é que vai estar
nesse tempo e lutar
a arquitetar a situação

E se acaso alguém vir
quatro olhos a sorrir
quando se escutar este refrao

Saiba que pode acontecer
assistir sem o saber
ao nascer dessa nova paixão
e desta canção

1231. A velha e o DJ - Deolinda

A velha e o Dj
Ai eu não sei não sei
Mas acho que andam enrolados na batida
Ela enche-lhe o copo
Ele mexe-lhe o corpo
E pouco a pouco ela já domina a pista
E as miúdas, as miúdas com inveja
Dizem que a velha é maluca
É a maluca da velha
Mas ela dança e desanca as miúdas
Que naquele corte e costura
Mais parecem elas velhas

A velha e o Dj
Ai eu não sei não sei
Mas acho que andam enrolados na batida
Ela enche-lhe o copo
Ele mexe-lhe o corpo
E pouco a pouco ela já domina a pista
E as miúdas, as miúdas descaradas
Riem a imitar a velha
A dançar desengonçadas
E mais ri ela com uma buzinadela
Quando ele abraçado a ela
Se põe na motorizada
E a mota custa muito a pegar!
E a mota custa muito a pegar!
E o fumo faz todas tossir!

A velha e o Dj
Ai eu não sei não sei
Mas acho que andam enrolados na batida
Ela enche-lhe o copo
Ele mexe-lhe o corpo
E pouco a pouco ela já domina a pista
E a mota custa muito a pegar!
E o fumo faz todas tossir!

1230. Nashville parent - Lambchop

But it just looks so cold there from the bottom
Another part of another ritual
Standing in the kitchen, arms are braced against the counter
Swallowing like mercury down the drain

And the neighbors have been drinking
And they are raising quite a stink
Pretty soon they will be fighting
It can get pretty ugly

The city makes a hooting sound tonight
The owl on the roof has got it right
And if it's left to him he can take that stupid grin
And decapitate a rodent or a mouse

Take the B train or the shuttle
At the exit have a smoke
Try to spit onto the sidewalk
Instead you wipe it off your chest

I don't wanna freak
But the tongue erodes
Each time we speak
On a timely mission
Ohh, you look pretty swell
In your new position

Fiberglass, funny face upon the wall
It's funny when it's not funny at all
And if it's up to him, you can take the ways of sin
And smash it like a glass against the wall

But it's nothing too pathetic
Full of rhetoric and doubt
Carry on like little creatures
In the fields of the heart

I don't wanna freak
But the tongue erodes
Each time we speak
On a timely mission
Ohh, you look pretty swell
In your new position

1229. Unza unza time - Emir Kusturica & The No Smoking Orchestra

In the beginning at the boring time
back in 1999
The man killed the line
between punishment and crime

On the planet Earth
there was no more fun
no sex no drugs no rock'n'roll
All music turned to a fashion show
White man had British pop
and black man had soul
But no, not a drop of a blood
'cause video killed the rock'n'roll

God said "Oh my God!"
What's happened to the human being
What's happened to my lovely creatures
They all became a cold machine

No more love no more power
Machine without gasoline
Wake up
Wake up crowd
Wake up from your boring dream

There is lighting
There is thunder
What's up with you I wonder
Lift your shoulders
Stamp your feet
Produce the extra protein

I'm gonna hit you hit you hit you hit you
hit you with my rhythm stick

So let there be light
Let there be sound
Let there be a music rewind

It's Unza Unza Unza Unza time

1228. Vital e sua moto - Samuel Úria

Vital andava a pé e achava que assim estava mal
De um ônibus pro outro aquilo para ele era o fim
Conselho do seu pai: "Motocicleta é perigoso, Vital.
É duro de negar, filho, mas isto dói bem mais a mim."

Mas Vital comprou a moto e passou a se sentir total, (sentir total)
Vital e sua moto, mas que união feliz
Corria e viajava, era sensacional
A vida em duas rodas era tudo que ele sempre quis

Vital passou a se sentir total
Com seu sonho de metal

Vital passou a se sentir total
No seu sonho...

Vital passou a se sentir total
Com seu sonho de metal

Vital passou a se sentir total
No seu sonho...

Os Paralamas do Sucesso iam tentar tocar na capital, (na capital)
E a caravana do amor então pra lá também se encaminhou
Ele foi com sua moto, ir de carro era baixo astral
Minha prima já lá está e é por isso que eu também vou.

1227. Under cover of darkness - The Strokes

Slip back out of whack at your best
It's a nightmare
So I'm joining the army

No house phones, but can I still call?
Will you wait for me now?

We got the right to live, fight to use it
Got everything but you can just choose it
I won't just be a puppet on a string

Don't go that way
I'll wait for you

And I'm tired of all your friends
Listening at your door
I want what's better for you

So long, my friend and adversary
But I'll wait for you

Get dressed, jump out of bed and do it best
Are you okay?
I've been out around this town
Everybody's singing the same song for ten years

I'll wait for you
Will you wait for me too?

And they sacrifice their lives
In our land are all closed eyes
They've said it a billion times and they'll say it again
So long, my adversary and friend

Don't go that way
I'll wait for you

I'm tired of all your friends
Knocking down your door
Get up in the morning, yelling no more
So long, my friend and adversary
I'll wait for you

1226. Pompeii Am Götterdämmerung - The Flaming Lips

Running to the station holding hands
Now the volcano is flowing red
Something there will change us into sand

Now we'll be forever holding hands
Lava and tephra will form our bed
Now the royal flames of Pompeii bless
All our senses, all our senses, all our senses

1225. 80's Comedown machine - The Strokes

It's not the first time
That I've watched you
Passing by
I've tried too hard
To get back there
But, you’re not on time
Anymore

You said the world's closed in
But you crawled in
Back inside

So please
Run away
So please
Run away

I tried to believe in fate
For a second try
It's there in the safe
Why don't you
Close the blinds
For the night

So please
Run away
So please
Run away

1224. Sentimentalist - Sondre Lerche

For a self-professed lover, romanticist at heart
I wasted less to no time at all
Tying the knot
Dying to not rot
But I'm no sentimentalist
Was a self-confessed tyro, so rational so far
Such a dumb way to get what you want
Loved you a lot, loved you a whole lot
But I'm no sentimentalist

[Chorus]
Don't I know you, my love?
Don't I know you, my love?
You can ask me again, but you may never know
I'll be damned if I fight
I'll be damned if I don't
In the end, would it count?
Don't you know me, my love?
Don't you know me, my love?
I may ask you again, but you may never know
I'll be damned if I fight
I'll be damned if I don't

[Verse 2]
For a final farewell before everything falls down
You wasted less to no time at all
On a table for eight you set for a trio
You were no sentimentalist
Sought a mock independence, irrational and harsh
Such a sad way to get what you want
Love be the hurt and the consoler
But I'm no sentimentalist

[Chorus]
Don't I know you, my love?
Don't I know you, my love?
You can ask me again, how the hell should I know?
I'll be damned if I fight
I'll be damned if I don't
In the end, would it count?
Don't you know me, my love?
Don't you know me, my love?
I may ask you again, but you may never know
I'll be damned if I fight
I'll be damned if I don't

1223. One way trigger - The Strokes

Get dressed in your bed
While she's asleep
It isn’t right
But it isn’t hard

Tell me tell me won’t you understand
Show me show me show me a better plan
It’s summer lies
It's someone else's nothing
Here it comes now

You asked me to stay
You asked me to stay
You asked me to stay
But there’s a million reasons to leave

Find a job
Find a friend
Find a home
Find a dog
Settle down
Out of town
Find a dream
Shut it down

Please please don’t point it that way
It’s just a trigger that goes once
And you’ll be unafraid
I wish that I'd been noticed
but it never goes that way

The silence that you brought has
Gone, gone, gone
Tell me, tell me, won’t you understand?
Show me, show me, show me

You asked me to stay
You asked me to stay
You asked me to stay
But there’s a million reasons to leave

Show me what to say
Show me what to be
Show me what to see
Show me what to be

Find a job
Find a friend
Find a home
Find a dog
Settle down
Out of town
Find a dream
Shut it down

I don’t wanna be in there with you
I don’t wanna be in there without your love baby
I waited for your thoughts
Can't wait no longer
