When the morning comes

This Too Shall Pass ~OK Go~

You know you can't keep letting it get you down
And you can't keep dragging that dead weight around.
If there ain't all that much to love around,
Better run like hell when you hit the ground.

When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.

You can't stop these kids from dancing.
Why would you want to?
Especially when your already getting yours.
'Cause if your mind don't move and your knees don't bend,
well don't start blaming the kids again.

When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.

Let it go, this too shall pass.
Let it go, this too shall pass.

You know you can't keep letting it get you down.
No, you can't keep letting it get you down.

You know you can't keep letting it get you down.
No, you can't keep letting it get you down.

You know you can't keep letting it get you down.
No, you can't keep letting it get you down.

When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes!

But don't talk about revolution, that's going a little bit too far

Love Me, I'm a Liberal ~Phil Ochs~

I cried when they shot Medgar Evers
Tears ran down my spine
I cried when they shot Mr. Kennedy
As though I'd lost a father of mine
But Malcolm X got what was coming
He got what he asked for this time
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal

I go to civil rights rallies
And I put down the old D.A.R.
I love Harry and Sidney and Sammy
I hope every colored boy becomes a star
But don't talk about revolution
That's going a little bit too far
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal

I cheered when Humphrey was chosen
My faith in the system restored
I'm glad the commies were thrown out
of the A.F.L. C.I.O. board
I love Puerto Ricans and Negros
as long as they don't move next door
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal

The people of old Mississippi
Should all hang their heads in shame
I can't understand how their minds work
What's the matter don't they watch Les Crain?
But if you ask me to bus my children
I hope the cops take down your name
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal

I read New republic and Nation
I've learned to take every view
You know, I've memorized Lerner and Golden
I feel like I'm almost a Jew
But when it comes to times like Korea
There's no one more red, white and blue
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal

I vote for the democratic party
They want the U.N. to be strong
I go to all the Pete Seeger concerts
He sure gets me singing those songs
I'll send all the money you ask for
But don't ask me to come on along
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal

Once I was young and impulsive
I wore every conceivable pin
Even went to the socialist meetings
Learned all the old union hymns
But I've grown older and wiser
And that's why I'm turning you in
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal

skyscrapers remind me of my dog sitting in the tall grass waiting for a rabbit

skyscrapers remind me of my dog sitting in the tall grass waiting for a rabbit

everything reminds me of my dog ~Jane Siberry ~

everything reminds me of my dog
the guy in the store reminds me of my dog
telephones remind me of my dog...yoohoo
taxicabs remind me too

if you remind me of my dog
we'll probably git along little doggie
git along git along little doggie git a...

smiling at strangers reminds me of my dog
(better let them know you're friendly)
the way people dress reminds me too
pissing on their favourite tree
sad things remind me of my dog
cockroaches and other insects
remind me too, don't eat them
the blank expression of the little boy
with thick glasses who picks
himself up from the sidewalk
and stands there blinking in the sun
ho oh!

if you remind me of my dog
we'll probably git along little doggie
git along git along little doggie git a...

like the man on the subway
sitting across from me
and every time I looked at him he smiled
and by the time
I got to the end of the subway line
I 'd given him at least ...oh...25 cookies

guys in bars remind me of my dog
the way it takes you so long
to choose the perfect table

if you remind me of my dog
we'll probably git along little doggie
git along git along little doggie git a...

me and my ferocious dog
we're walking down the street
and everyone we meet says
"ach yer a goot doogie !...
"ach yer a goot doogie!..."
"ach yer a goot doogie!..."

except when we go for a walk
to get the Sunday paper
I stand there and read the headlines
he reads the wind
sometimes he hits a funny smell and laughs
I hate it when he does that- I feel so dumb
what? what? I say

everything reminds me of my dog
beautiful things
sunsets remind me of my dog
Gina go to your window
Einstein reminds me of me dog
I want to pat his fluffy head
this whole world reminds me of my dog
my dog reminds me of this whole world
do I remind you of a dog? (thump thump)
I do? (faster thump thump)
skyscrapers remind me of my dog
sitting in the tall grass waiting for a rabbit
guys in red cameros too
it's getting to be a habit
artists remind me of my dog
staking out their originality on the nearest tree
old folks remind me of my dog
my dog reminds old people of their dogs
(Barfy, Ruffo, Beanhead)
Gina says I remind her of the dog
the that way I just did that
golfers teeing off remind me of my dog
the way he sits by me and shifts on his front paws

what is it you want? look at it...
do you want to go for a walk? do you want a cookie?
do you want me to dial the number for you? 

You can thank the keeper, you can thank the flame


Light from the lighthouse ~Pete Coe~

When the daylight fades and the shadows fall
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
And the weather watch spies an incoming squall
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
And the sun sinks down into a troubled sea
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
And the night winds blow and the rain falls free
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me

Shine on me, shine on me
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
Shine on me, shine on me
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me

And when the clouds boil black and the wind will wail
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
And you're caught in the teeth of a terrible gale
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
And your sailor's heart is filled with fear
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
And the sound of the surf on the rocks is near
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me.

Shine on me, shine on me
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
Shine on me, shine on me
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me

And when the wind drops down and the sea is becalmed
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
And the fog is thickest before the dawn
And the light from the lighthouse shine on me
And the new sun burns that fog away
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
From the darkest night comes the brightest day
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me

Shine on me, shine on me
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
Shine on me, shine on me
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me

When you're safe back home in harbour again
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
You can thank the keeper, you can thank the flame
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me

Shine on me, shine on me
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
Shine on me, shine on me
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
