Mad World by Gary Jules and Curt Smith (Tears for Fears)

No words. "Look right through me, Look right through me...And to feel the way that every child should..."

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere

Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression...
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow!!!
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you,
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
Mad world, mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday
And to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen

Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me, what's my lesson?
Look right through me, look right through me!!!

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you,
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
Mad world, mad world, mad world, mad world

Only Love Can Break Your Heart by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

"Yes only love can break your heart, Try to be sure right from the start..."

When you were young and on your own
How did it feel to be alone?
I was always thinking of games that I was playing.
Trying to make the best of my time.

But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?

I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Someone should call him and see if he can come out.
Try to lose the down that he's found.

But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?

I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Yes, only love can break your heart
Yes, only love can break your heart

Ruby Tuesday by The Rolling Stones

Listened to this in the car today, while my dad drove my kids and I:)  It felt like I was a kid again. "There's no time to lose, I heard her say, Catch your dreams before they slip away, And dying all the time, Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind, Ain't life unkind?"

She would never say where she came from
And yesterday don't matter if it's gone
And while the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night no one knows
She comes and goes

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you

Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
And she just can't be chained
To a life where nothings gained and nothings lost
At such a cost

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
If you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you

There's no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away!!!!!!!!
And dying all the time
Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind
Ain't life unkind?

And goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you

And goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you

"Dreams like this must die, And a dream like this must die, Dreams like this must..."

Chloe Dancer & Crown Of Thorns by Mother Love Bone and Pearl Jam

Chloe Dancer kind of morning. This song brings me back the best memories of being a kid and fighting my way to find my own niche of music to fall in love with. Definitely doesn't hurt to go right into Crown of Thorns. Original Mother Love Bone version below. "But I tried to say, And I won't forget, The time spent layin' by her side, The time spent layin' by her side, Dreams like this must die, A dream like this must die, And dreams like this must..."

Chloe don't know better
Chloe is just like me, only beautiful
A couple of years' difference
But those lessons never learned
And you know?

Chloe dances tables in the French Quarter
She's always been given
So I can't always make her laugh
But I tried to say
And I won't forget
The time spent layin' by her side
The time spent layin' by her side
Dreams like this must die
And a dream like this must die
Dream like this must

You ever heard the story of Mr. Faded Glory? 

Say he who rides a pony must someday fall 
Oh I was talkin' to my alter, life is what you make it 
And if you make it death well rest your soul away 
Away, away, yeah child 

It's a broken kind of feeling 
She'd have to tie me to the ceiling 
A bad moon's a comin' better say your prayers, child
I wanna tell you that I love you but does it really matter?!!
I just can't stand to see you dragging down, again 
Again, my friend again, oh yeah

So I'm singing 
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on 
It's the kind that leaves me alone, 
And this is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on 
It's the kind that leaves me alone

I used to treat you like a lady 
Now you're my substitute teacher
This bottle's not a pretty, not a pretty sight, yeah
I owe the man some money so I'm turnin over honey
See Mr. Faded Glory is once again doin' time, oh yeah

And this is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind that leaves me alone, yes it does
And this is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's unkind and it's unkind and
It'll leave me alone, yeah

Like a crown of thorns
It's all who you know, yeah
So don't burn your bridges woman
Cause someday, yeah 

So I'm singing...
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind that leaves me alone, yeah
And this is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on...

The Logical Song by Roger Hodgson/Supertramp

This sums up our society pretty well, unfortunately! Don't ever forget that "life IS wonderful" K and Z!!! "There are times when all the world's asleep, The questions run so deep, For such a simple man..."

When I was young, 
It seemed that life was so wonderful,
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.

And all the birds in the trees, 
Well they'd be singing so happily,
Joyfully, playfully watching me.

But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
Logical, responsible, practical.
And then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
Clinical, oh intellectual, cynical.

There are times when all the world's asleep,
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man!!!
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am.

Now watch what you say if they'll be calling you a radical,
Liberal, oh fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name,
We'd like to feel you're acceptable,
Respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable!

At night, when all the world's asleep,
The questions run so deep
For such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am.

I'm feeling so logical...

Cold Rain and Snow by the Grateful Dead

Only appropriate for this wonderful weather:) Thumbs up for being a teacher. Love the shorts on Bob Weir. "Well she went up to her room, and she sang a faithful tune...I'm going where those chilly winds don't blow!..."

Well I married me a wife, she been trouble all my life
Run me out in the cold rain and snow
Rain and snow…………
Run me out in the cold rain and snow

Well she's coming down the stairs combing back her yellow hair
And I ain’t gonna be treated this old way
This old way……………
Now I ain’t gonna be treated this old way

Well she went up to her room, and she sang a faithful tune
And I'm goin where those chilly winds don`t blow
Winds don't blow....
I'm going where those chilly winds don't blow!

Well I married me a wife, she been trouble all my life
Run me out in the cold rain and snow
Rain and snow…………
Run me out in the cold rain and snow

Stay by Belly

Love this song and this album! "It's not time for me to go!"

Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay

Soloman dives
For that big dusky pearl
Soloman sighs
He knows he's older than me
Sleeps with the fishes soon

Stay
Ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay
Ohh ooh oh oh stay

Soloman crawls
On the belly of God
Soloman falls on his face in love with me
He grows as old as the sea
Deep where the fishes are

Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay

He lives in the yard, he keeps himself hard
He keeps himself homeless and heartless and hard
He sleeps under stairs along with the heirs of nothing
And nothing means no one who cares
But I love him dear and I love him dear
And I've loved him hundreds of thousands of years

Stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay with me, stay with me

It's not time for me to go
It's not time for me to go
It's not time for me to go
Stay

Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple

My dad will still start rocking out this song at random times:)! Brings back the best memories of my dad teaching me all about his kind of music! Now he rocks songs out in front of my kids and I get to teach them what it is he is singing. I'm a lucky mom and daughter! "Smoke on the water, fire in the sky..."

We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile
We didn't have much time
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky Claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out the ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
But Swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

We ended up at the Grand Hotel
It was empty cold and bare
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
Making our music there
With a few red lights and a few old beds
We make a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know we'll never forget
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
