116. I think I'm paranoid - Garbage
You can look, but you can't touch
I don't think I like you much
Heaven knows what a girl can do
Heaven knows what you've got to prove
I think I'm paranoid
And complicated
I think I'm paranoid
Manipulate it
Chorus:
Bend me, break me
Anyway you need me
All I want is you
Bend me, break me
Breaking down is easy
All I want is you
I fall down just to give you a thrill
Prop me up with another pill
If I should fail, if I should fold
I nailed my faith to the sticking pole
I think I'm paranoid
Manipulate it
I think I'm paranoid
And complicated
Chorus
Paranoid
I think I'm paranoid
Chorus
Steal me, deal me, anyway you heal me
Maim me, tame me, you can never change me
Love me, like me, come ahead and fight me
Please me, tease me, go ahead and leave me
Bend me
Break me
Anyway you need me
As long as I want you baby it's all right
Bend me
Break me
Any way you need me
As long as I want you baby it's all right

115. Freeway - Aimee Mann
You've got a lot of money but you can’t afford the freeway
The road to Orange Country leaves an awful lot of leeway
Where everyone’s a doctor or a specialist in retail
They’ll sell you all the speed you want if you can take the blackmail
You know it
I know it
Why don’t you
Just show it
You got a lot of money but you can’t afford the freeway
You got a lot of money but you can't afford the freeway
You've got a lot of money but you cannot get your bills paid
The sacrifice is worth it just to hang around the arcade
You found yourself a prophet but you left him on the boardwalk
Another chocolate Easter bunny, hollowed out by your talk
You know it
I know it
Why don’t you
Just show it
You got a lot of money but you can’t afford the freeway
You got a lot of money but you can’t afford the freeway
And everything I do is wrong…
But at least I’m hanging on
You got a lot of money that you can’t afford
You got a lot of money that you can’t afford
You got a lot of money but you can’t afford the freeway
114. Moro em Lisboa - Madredeus
Que outra cidade
Levantada sobre o mar
Á beira rio
Acabou por se elevar
Entre dois braços de água
Um de sal, outro de nada
Água doce, água salgada
Águas que abraçam Lisboa
É em Lisboa
Que o Tejo chega ao mar
É em Lisboa
Que o mar azul recebe o rio
E essa brisa que nos faz
Promessas de viagem
Brisa fresca que reclama
as nossas almas ausentes
Suave
cidade
do sal
do mar
Moro em Lisboa
E a tarde cai

113. You were always on my mind - Elvis Presley
Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
(You were always on my mind)
You were always on my mind
Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine
If I make you feel second best
Girl, I'm so sorry I was blind
You were always on my mind
(You were always on my mind)
You were always on my mind
Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn't died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied, satisfied
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
(You are always on my mind)
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine
Maybe I didn`t treat you…
Quite as good as I should have…

112. Cinder and smoke - Iron & Wine
Give me your hand
The dog in the garden row is covered in mud
And dragging your mother’s clothes
Cinder and smoke
The snake in the basement
Found the juniper shade
The farmhouse is burning down
Give me your hand
And take what you will tonight, I'll give it as fast
And high as the flame will rise
Cinder and smoke
Some whispers around the trees
The juniper bends
As if you were listening
Give me your hand
Your mother is drunk as all the firemen shake A photo from father’s arms
Cinder and smoke
You’ll ask me to pray for rain
With ash in your mouth
You’ll ask it to burn again
111. All or none - Pearl Jam
It's a hopeless... situation
And I'm starting to believe
That this hopeless... situation
Is what I'm trying to achieve
But I try
To run on
Is all or none,... all or none
Here's the selfless confession
Leading me back to war
Can we help that,.. our destinations
Are the ones we've been before
I still try
To run on
But is all or none,... all or none
To myself I... surrender
To the one I'll never please
But I still try to run on
Oh I still try to run on
But it's all or none, all or none
110. Shape of my heart - Sting
VERSE 1
he deals the cards as a meditation
and those he plays never suspect
he doesnt play for the money he wins
he doesnt play for respect
he deals the cards to find the answer
the sacred geometry of chance
the hidden law of a probable outcome
and lonelessly to dance
CHORUS
i know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
i know that the clubs are weapons of war
i know that the diamonds mean money for this art
but thats not the shape of my heart
VERSE 2
he may play the jack of diamonds
he may lay the queen of spades
he may conceal the king in his hand
while the memory of it fades
CHORUS
VERSE 3
and if i told you that i loved you
you may be think there's something wrong
i not a man of too many faces
the mask i wear is one
although i speak, i know nothing
i'll find too their cost
like those who curse their luck
in too many places
like those who fear are lost
CHORUS (to end)
