[GAME] Speak To Me Only in Song Lyrics

The Game Room
4601

Everyone’s watching to see what you will do
Everyone’s looking at you, oh
Everyone’s wondering, will you come out tonight
Everyone’s trying to get it right, get it right

Everybody’s working for the weekend
Everybody wants a new romance
Everybody’s going off the deep end
Everybody needs a second chance, oh

You want a piece of my heart?
You better start from the start
You want to be in the show?
C’mon baby, let’s go!

Everyone’s looking to see if it was you
Everyone wants you to come through
Everyone’s hoping it’ll all work out
Everyone’s waiting to hold you out

Everybody’s working for the weekend
Everybody wants a new romance, hey yeah
Everybody’s going off the deep end
Everybody needs a second chance, oh

You want a piece of my heart?
You better start from the start
You want to be in the show?
C’mon baby, let’s go!

– “Working for the Weekend”, Loverboy (1981)

4602

You took a piece of my heart
You took a piece of my heart
And I don’t know why
No I don’t know why

It was clear in coming here
I must have put the horse before the cart
Before the cart

You took the lead from the start
You took the lead from the start
And I don’t know why
No I don’t know why

It was clear in coming here
I must have put the skin before the heart
Before the heart

You took the rest of the day
You took the rest of the day
And I don’t know why
No I don’t know why

Now that it’s all over
Now there’s just some coldness in my way
It’s in my way

You took the clubs and the spades
You took the clubs and the spades
And I don’t know why
No I don’t know why

It’s a shame it’s not a game
We’re playing in it’s just the blurred crusade
The blurred crusade
The blurred crusade
The blurred crusade

–The Church, “You Took”

4603

You made me cry
When you said good-bye.
Ain’t that a shame…my tears fall like rain
Ain’t that a shame…you’re the one to blame

You broke my heart
Now we’re apart
Ain’t that a shame…my tears fall like rain
Ain’t that a shame…you’re the one to blame
**
– “Ain’t That a Shame”, Cheap Trick** (originally by Fats Domino)

4604

Blame it on the rain that was falling, falling.
Blame it on the stars that did shine at night.
Whatever you do, don’t put the blame on you.
Blame it on the rain…yeah yeah

–originally assumed to be Milli Vanilli

Adam Trask is on my back, is in my ears
And the sound comes clear and brings the awful truth that I can’t stand what I’ve done to you
And it’s written clear in my diary today should have been our anniversary
But I’m far way and we’re far apart
And you’re back home with a broken heart
And love is real and I can’t escape
I’ll only ever have myself to blame

These failures shift and save me in the night
Like a fever I can’t break try as I might
Wake me darling I need you take me home
But I know
In the end redemption is mine and mine alone
So if each of us is made of a tally of mistakes and successes
Then the hour in the restaurant makes my score less than impressive

But each can be redeemed with the courage by which he confesses
So darling: I miss you, your music and your musk and your kisses
I don’t think I can do this

Frank Turner, Redemption (Gives me the shivers every.freaking.time)

4606

I was forgotten
A body scorned and broken
My soul rejected
Tainted by his blood

Beyond redemption
A sinner not worth saving
Forever taken
From the one I loved

Do I still wait for my God
And a symbol of my faith?

I can lead you down the path and back to life
All I ask is that you worship me
I can help you seek revenge and save yourself
Give you life for all eternity

Servants of the fallen
Fight to pave the way
For their saviour’s calling
Of this wicked day

Through a veil of madness
With a vicious blade
One man rises up
Standing in their way

Redemption
Redemption for humanity

– “In the Presence of Enemies, Pt. 1”; Dream Theater (2007)

4607

Once I ran to you
Now I’ll run from you
This tainted love you’ve given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that’s not nearly all
Oh…tainted love
Tainted love

4608

The moon up above, it shines on upon our skin
Whispering words that scream of outrageous sin
We all want the stuff that’s found in our wildest dreams
It gets kinda rough in the back of our limousine

That’s what we are, we all want a love bizarre
That’s what we are, we all want a love bizarre

4609

Hiding in daylight, biding it’s time
The monster that wakes in your sleeping mind.

Inside of you
You leave it unseen
But it’s coming to life
In your wildest dreams.

It’s the ground you stand on that’ s dissolving away
And the urges you countered that take you out of your way

Down to inside of you
Where it all goes unseen
But coming to life
In your wildest dreams.

No matter what colours, no matter how bright
I’ll always want to take you down to my darker side
Chase that feeling for better or worse
It’s all beyond the life that’s just a matter of course.
Inside of you, don’t leave them unseen
Bring to life your wildest dreams.
Come in to I my life.

–The Sound, "Wildest Dreams"

4610

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I’ve become so numb
Without a soul my spirit’s sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I’ve become

Now that I know what I’m without
You can’t just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I’ve become

Bring me to life
(I’ve been living a lie, there’s nothing inside)
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead

– “Bring Me To Life”, Evanescence (2003)

4611

I thought I’d found a reason to live
Just like before when I was a child
Only to find dreams made of sand
Would just fall apart and slip through my hands
But the spirit of life keeps us strong
And the spirit of life is the will to carry on

Adversity what have I done to you
To cause these ripples of silence
That has come between me and you

And the spirit of life remains in light
And the spirit of life remains inside

I never thought it would be quite like this
Living outside of mutual bliss
But as long as the veins in our arm still stand up
The spirit of life will keep living on

–Dead Can Dance, "Spirit"

4612

When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that’s the best
When I lay me down to die
Goin’ up to the spirit in the sky

Goin’ up to the spirit in the sky
That’s where I’m gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that’s the best

Prepare yourself, you know it’s a must
Gotta have a friend in Jesus
So you know that when you die
He’s gonna recommend you to the spirit in the sky

Gonna recommend you to the spirit in the sky
That’s where you’re gonna go when you die
When you die and they lay you to rest
You’re gonna go to the place that’s the best

Never been a sinner, I never sinnedsup[/sup]
I got a friend in Jesus
So you know that when I die
He’s gonna set me up with the spirit in the sky

Oh, set me up with the spirit in the sky
That’s where I’m gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
I’m gonna go to the place that’s the best
Go to the place that’s the best

– “Spirit in the Sky”, Norman Greenbaum

sup[/sup]Maybe it’s just me, but doesn’t this lyric contradict what Christianity’s theoretically all about?

4613

[Norman Greenbaum is Jewish. His inspiration for the song, though, came from listening to Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton, and watching Westerns.]
Heaven, I’m in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we’re out together dancing cheek to cheek
**

  • “Cheek to Cheek”, Fred Astaire**
4614

Well, it’s a marvelous night for a Moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I’m trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night’s magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush

–Van Morrison Moondance

4615

See the curtains hangin’ in the window
In the evening on a Friday night
A little light a-shinin’ through the window
Lets me know everything’s all right

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin’ through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin’ though the jasmine in my mind

See the paper layin’ on the sidewalk
A little music from the house next door
So I walk on up to the doorstep
Through the screen and across the floor

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin’ through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin’ through the jasmine in my mind

– “Summer Breeze”, Seals & Crofts (1972)

4616

Summer of love
Summer of love

I’ve been waiting for the man
Just buzzin’ around
Downtown
Waiting for that very special
Comes in to see what I got
Orange popsicles and lemonade

It’s the summer of love, love, love
I’m in love with love, love, love
For everyone transcends here
I’m thinking of you boy
Love energy is giving us a shove
Making this the summer of love
I said,“I see no clouds ahead”

Summer of love
Summer of love

–B-52’s, "The Summer of Love"

If you see a faded sign at the side of the road that says
“15 miles to the
Love Shack”
Love Shack, yeah, yeah
I’m headin’ down the Atlanta highway
Lookin’ for the love getaway
Headed for the love getaway
I got me a car, it’s as big as a whale
And we’re headin’ on down to the Love Shack
I got me a Chrysler, it seats about 20
So hurry up and bring your jukebox money

The love shack is a little old place where we can get together
Love Shack, baby (a-Love Shack, baby)
Love Shack, baby, Love Shack
Love Shack, baby, Love Shack
Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that’s where it’s at)
Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that’s where it’s at)

Sign says (woo) “Stay away, fools”
'Cause love rules at the Love Shack
Well, it’s set way back in the middle of a field
Just a funky old shack and I gotta get back
Glitter on the mattress
Glitter on the highway
Glitter on the front porch
Glitter on the highway

The Love Shack is a little old place where we can get together
Love Shack, baby (Love Shack, baby)
Love Shack, that’s where it’s at
Love Shack, that’s where it’s at

Huggin’ and a-kissin’
Dancin’ and a-lovin’
Wearin’ next to nothin’
‘Cause it’s hot as an oven
The whole shack shimmies
Yeah, the whole shack shimmies
The whole shack shimmies when everybody’s
Movin’ around and around and around and around
Everybody’s movin’, everybody’s groovin’, baby
Folks linin’ up outside just to get down
Everybody’s movin’, everybody’s groovin’, baby
Funky little shack
Funky little shack

Hop in my Chrysler, it’s as big as a whale and it’s about to set sail
I got me a car, like, it seats about 20
So come on and bring your jukebox money

The Love Shack is a little old place where we can get together
Love Shack, baby (a-Love Shack, baby)
Love Shack, baby, Love Shack
Love Shack, baby, Love Shack
Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that’s where it’s at, yeah)
Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that’s where it’s at)

Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby
Knock a little louder, baby
Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby
I can’t hear you
Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby
Knock a little louder, sugar
Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby
I can’t hear you
Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby (Knock a little louder)
Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby
Bang, bang (On the door, baby)
Bang, bang (On the door)
Bang, bang (On the door, baby)
Bang, bang

Tin roof, rusted

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack
Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that’s where it’s at, yeah)
Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that’s where it’s at)
Love, baby, Love Shack
Huggin’ and a-kissin’,
Dancin’ and a-lovin’
At the Love Shack

Well then, of course this follows… :slight_smile:

There’s a crazy little shack beyond the tracks
And ev’rybody calls it the sugar shack
Well, it’s just a coffeehouse and it’s made out of wood
Expresso coffee tastes mighty good
That’s not the reason why I’ve got to get back
To that sugar shack, whoa baby
To that sugar shack.

There’s this cute little girlie, she’s a’workin’ there
A black leotard and her feet are bare
I’m gonna drink a lotta coffee, spend a little cash
Make that girl love me when I put on some trash
You can understand why I’ve got to get back
To that sugar shack, whoa baby
To that sugar shack, yeah honey
To that sugar shack, whoa yes
To that sugar shack.

Now that sugar shack queen is a’married to me, yeah yeah
We just sit around and dream of those old memories
Ah, but one of these days I’m gonna lay down tracks
In the direction of that sugar shack
Just me and her yes we’re gonna go back
To that sugar shack,
Whoa uh ohT
o that sugar shack, yeah honey
To our sugar shack

Yeh, yeh, yeh, our sugar shack

–Jimmy Gilmer & the Fireballs Sugar Shack

Where I came from
There’s a place called Heaven
That’s the place where
All the good children go

The houses are of silver
The streets are gold
But there’s more
Where you come from
My sugar walls

My sugar walls, ooh
My sugar walls

Blood races to your private spots
Lets me know there’s a fire
You can’t fight passion
When passion is hot
Temperatures rise
Inside my sugar walls

Lemme take you somewhere
You’ve never been
I can show you things
You’ve never seen

I can make you never
Wanna fall in love again
Come spend the night
Inside my sugar walls

Take advantage, it’s all right

I feel so alive
When I’m with you
Come and feel my presence
It’s raining tonight

Heaven on Earth
Inside my sugar walls

– “Sugar Walls”, Sheena Easton (1993)

I woke up this mornin’ and seen somethin’ bright
Was that you?
Then I heard a voice
Sound like birds outside
Was that you?

(Shu-sugar-sugar honey ice-ice-tea)

But I bet you didn’t know
You’re my sugar honey iced tea, baby
You’re just as sweet as can be
Your momma must be made of sugar
Your daddy makes honey
And that’s what makes sense to me, oh!
