Bad Day - R.E.M.




A public service announcement followed me home the other day
I paid it nevermind. Go away.
Shit so thick you could stir with a stick- free Teflon whitewashed presidency
We're sick of being jerked around
Wear that on your sleeve

 Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, lord,
Count your blessings
We're sick of being jerked around
We all fall down

 Have you ever seen the televised St. Vitus subcommittee prize
Investigation dance? Those-ants-in-pants glances
Well, look behind the eyes
It's a hallowed, hollow anesthetized
"Save my own ass, screw these guys"
Smoke and mirror lock down

 Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, lord,
Count your blessings
The papers wouldn't lie!
I sigh. Not one more

 It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day
Please

 We're dug in the deep the price is steep
The auctioneer is such a creep
The lights went out, the oil ran dry
We blamed it on the other guy

Sure, all men are created equal
Here's the church, here's the steeple
Please stay tuned--we cut to sequel
Ashes, ashes, we all fall down

 Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, lord, Count your blessings
Ignore the lower fears
Ugh, this means war

 It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day
Please

Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, lord,
Count your blessings
We're sick of being jerked around
We all fall down

 It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day
Please

Mulder and Scully - Catatonia

I'd rather be liberated, I find myself captivated I'd rather stay bold and lonely, I dream I'm your one and only Stop doing what you Keep doing it to I'd rather be jumping ship, I find myself jumping straight in Forever be dozy and dim, I wake myself thinking of him Stop doing what you Keep doing it to Things are getting strange, I'm starting to worry This could be a case for Mulder and Scully Things are getting strange, now I can't sleep alone My bed is made for two and there's nothing I can do So tell me something I don't know If my head is full of you, is there nothing I can do? Must we all march in two by two by two? And as for some happy ending, I'd rather stay single and thin Stop doing what you Keep doing it to Things are getting strange, I'm starting to worry This could be a case for Mulder and Scully Things are getting strange now I can't sleep alone...here

Harvest Moon - Neil Young

Come a little bit closer Hear what I have to say Just like children sleeping We could dream this night away But there's a full moon rising Let's go dancing in the light We know where the music's playing Let's go out and feel the night Because I'm still in love with you I want to see you dance again Because I'm still in love with you On this harvest moon When we were strangers I watched you from afar When we were lovers I loved you with all my heart But now it's getting late And the moon is climbing high I want to celebrate See it shining in your eye Because I'm still in love with you I want to see you dance again Because I'm still in love with you On this harvest moon
