They’re coming to take me away, haha!
Strange shapes light up the night
I’ve never seen 'em though I hope I might
Don’t ask if they are real
The Men in Black, their lips are sealed
Fantasy fills my mind
To leave this place before my time
Release myself from earthly care
My dream may be your nightmare
I turn my hopes up to the sky
I’d like to know before I die
Memories will slowly fade
I lift my eyes and say
Come on take me away
Come on take me away
Come here girl, close to me
A thousand stars your eyes can see
First one we see tonight
I wish I may I wish I might
I turn my hopes up to the sky
I’d like to know before I die
Memories will slowly fade
I lift my eyes and say
Come on take me away
Come on take me away
Come on take me away
Come on take me away
From the deepest of the darkest of night
On the horizon, bright light enters sight tight
Cameras zoom, on the impending doom
But then like BOOM black suits fill the room up
With the quickness talk with the witnesses
Hypnotizer, neuralizer
Vivid memories turn to fantasies
Ain’t no M.I.B.'s, can I please
Do what we say that’s the way we kick it
Yaknahmean? I see my noisy cricket get wicked on ya
We’re your first, last and only line of defense
Against the worst scum of the universe
So don’t fear us, cheer us
If you ever get near us, don’t jeer us, we’re the fearless
M.I.B.'s, freezin up all the flack
(What’s that stand for?) Men In Black
She came from Planet Claire
I knew she came from there
She drove a Plymouth Satellite
Faster than the speed of light
Planet Claire has pink air
All the trees are red
No one ever dies there
No one has a head
Ahhhahhhahhahh
Some say she’s from Mars
Or one of the seven stars
That shine after 3:30 in the morning
WELL SHE ISN’T
Ahhhahhhahhahhahhahh
Daddy where are you now
Forgot about your vow?
You promised you’d return and take me to Earth
Did you have to fight that war
What was it all for?
The honor of one’s name, what is it worth?
I’m all alone - we’re all alone
My future’s unknown - our future’s unknown
I reach out to the stars out here in my house on Mars
Mother did you hear me cry?
You never told me why
You put me in this world of rock and dust
No friends for playing games
No foes who scorn my name
Computerized machines of steel and rust
Is this my home? - this is our home
This desolate dome - this desolate dome
I call out to the stars: I’m alone in my house on Mars
I’ll never smell the ocean breeze
I’ll never climb the highest trees
I’ll never feel the burning sun
I’ll never meet my chosen one - in my house…
But I’ve been walking through the night and the day
Till my eyes get weary and my head turns gray
And sometimes it seems maybe God’s gone away
Forgetting his promise and the word he’d say
And we’re lost out here in the stars
Little stars big stars blowing through the night
And we’re lost out here in the stars
I don’t want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don’t want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don’t want to do that.
You oughta be in pictures
You’re wonderful to see
You oughta be in pictures
Oh, what a hit you would be!
[That is to say, Boyo Jim must’ve meant to post in the Movie Quotes thread…]
Ain’t thou watching my film
Analyzing me
Rusty chalk-dust walker
Checking up to see
If we should pull the plugs out
On all of history
And all the mystery, yeah
Of things that shouldn’t be
Things that couldn’t be, no
Things that had to be
Don’t you see?
Don’t you see?
It’s going up, up, up
It’s going up
It’s going up, up, up
It’s going up
Let’s get the hell out of here
Let’s get the hell out of here
Going up
Going down
D’ya wanna know what’s wrong with the world?
Everywhere there’s people with no flowers in their hair
Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon?
Would you like to glide in my beautiful balloon?
We could flow among the stars, together you and I
For we can fly, up, up and away
(For we can fly)
In my beautiful, my beautiful balloon
The world’s a nicer place in my beautiful balloon
It wears a nicer face in my beautiful balloon
We can sing a song and sail along the silver sky
For we can fly, up, up and away
(For we can fly)
In my beautiful, my beautiful balloon
Suspended under the twilight canopy
We’ll search the sky for a star to guide us
If by some chance you find yourself loving me
We’ll find a cloud to hide us, keep the moon beside us
Love is waiting there, in my beautiful balloon
Way up in the air, in my beautiful balloon
If you’ll hold my hand, we’ll chase your dream across the sky
For we can fly, up, up and away
(For we can fly)
In my beautiful, my beautiful balloon, balloon
Up, up and away
Up, up and away
Up, up and away
Up all night, sleep all day
Up all night, sleep all day
When evenin’ comes I am alive
I love to prowl around in the streets
Its the moonlight that controls my mind
Now I’ve got the power to speak, yeah
(Awake from dusk to dawn) Under the city lights
(Stars are shinin’ down) They’ll be shinin’ down on you and I
(And when morning comes) I’ll hold you till the mornin’ light
Everybody sing it now
Up all night, sleep all day
Up all night, sleep all day
That’s right
Ah ahhh ahhhhh
I get up in the evening
and I ain’t got nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain’t nothing but tired
Man I’m just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help
You can’t start a fire
You can’t start a fire without a spark
This gun’s for hire
even if we’re just dancing in the dark
I blocked the path of his retreat
He turned and stepped into the street
A dozen guns spit fire and lead
A moment later, he lay dead
The town began to shout and cheer
Nowhere was there shed a tear for Ringo
(Ringo… Ringo… )
The story spread throughout the land
That I had beaten Ringo’s hand
And it was just the years, they say
That made me put my guns away
But on his grave they can’t explain
The tarnished star above the name of Ringo
We love you, Ringo
Oh, yes, we do
No matter where you go
We’ll follow you
When you’re not near to us
We’re blue
Oh, Ringo, we love you
I’d like to be under the sea
In an octopus’s garden in the shade
We would shout and swim about
The coral that lies beneath the waves
Lies beneath the ocean waves
Oh, what joy, for every girl and boy
Knowing we’re happy and we’re safe
Happy and we’re safe
We would be so happy you and me
No one there to tell us what to do
I’d like to be under the sea
In an octopus’s garden with you
Down here all the fish are happy
As off through the waves they roll
The fish on the land ain’t happy
They’re sad ’cause they’re in a bowl
But fish in the bowl is lucky
They’re in for a worser fate
One day when the boss gets hungry
Guess who’s goin’ be on the plate
Under the sea
Under the sea
Nobody beats us
Fry us and eat us in fricasee
We what the land folks love to cook
Under the sea we off the hook
We got no troubles
Life is the bubbles
Under the sea
Under the sea
Since life is sweet here
We got the beat here naturally
Even the sturgeon an’ the ray
They get the urge an’ start to play
We got the spirit
You got to hear it
Under the sea
Under the sea
Under the sea
There’ll be no accusations
Just friendly crustaceans
Under the sea
(“That’s your solution to everything:
move under the sea–it’s not gonna happen!”)
What, am I to wake up suddenly and then
enroll at the local college, earn me a degree
and I could work weekends?
If I’ve worked real hard
I could mow your back yard
I can go to Europe, travel with my friends
I can blow a thousand deutsche marks
to get drunk in a pub with some Australians
Buy a giant backpack
sew a flag on the back
I think never is enough (yeah never is enough)
I never want to do that stuff
I think never is enough (yeah never is enough)
You never have to do that stuff
Sacrifice my life
Neglect my kids and wife
All for you to be happy
All those sleepless nights
And countless fights to give you more
And then you say how dare that
I didn’t write you back
I must be too good for you
I only care about myself
What would you say
If I walked away
Would you appreciate
But then it’d be too late
Because I can only take so much of your ungrateful ways
Everything is never enough
Do that to me one more time
Once is never enough with a man like you
Do that to me one more time
I can never get enough of a man like you, oh
Kiss me like you just did
Oh, baby, do that to me once again
Pass that by me one more time
Once just isn’t enough for my heart to hear
Whoa, tell it to me one more time
I can never hear enough while I got ya near, oh
Say those words again that you just did
Oh, baby tell it to me once again
