Here are a bunch of songs. Some I posted up here, some are new.

The first 16 are some silly songs that amuse me, so check 'em out :D
They are all on sendspace and MP3s, and all have a little bit of the lyrics:




Barenaked Ladies – I’ll be that Girl
If I were you
And I wish I were you
All the things I do
To make myself turn blue
I supposed I’d start by removing all my clothes
Tie my pantyhose around my neck
I’ll be that girl
And you would be right over…

Andy Partridge – I Wonder Why the Wonderfalls
Were bobbing along in our barrel
Some of us tip right over the edge
But there’s one thing really mystifying
Got me laughing, now it’s got me crying
All my life will be death defying
Until I know…until I know

Wierd Al - Which Backstreet Boy is Gay?
We are on fire
We have desire
But one is that way.
One Backstreet Boy is gay

But we don’t want to be mean
Since now he’s a queen
Don’t ask please,
Which Backstreet Boys is gay


Men at Work - Land Down Under
Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
And he said,

"I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."

Ray Stephens - I'm my own grandpa
Many, many years ago
When I was 23
I was married to a widow who was as pretty as can be
This widow had a grown up daughter who had hair of red
My father fell in love with her and soon they two were wed
This made my dad my son in law, and really changed my life
Now my daughter was my mother, ‘cause she was my father’s wife…
*headache*

Michael Jackson - Beat it
They told him don't you ever come around here
Don't wanna see your face, you better disappear
The fire's in their eyes and their words are really clear
So beat it, just beat it

You better run, you better do what you can
Don't wanna see no blood, don't be a macho man
You wanna be tough, better do what you can
So beat it, but you wanna be bad

Aqua – Lollipop (Candyman)
I wish that you were my lollipop.
Sweet things, I will never get enough
If you show me to the sugar tree,
Will you give me a soda pop for free?

Come with me honey,
I'm your sweet sugar candyman
Run like the wind - fly with me to bountyland
Bite me, I’m yours - if you're hungry please understand
This is the end - of the sweet sugar candyman

Aqua - Barbie Girl
I’m a barbie girl
In a barbie world
Wrapped in plastic, it’s fantastic
You can brush my hair
Undress me everywhere
Imagination, life is your creation

Aerosmith - Dude looks like a lady
So never judge a book by its cover
Or who you're going to love by your lover
Love put me wise to her love in disguise
She had the body of a venus
Lord imagine my surprise

(That, that) Dude looks like a lady
(That, that) Dude looks like a lady
(That, that) Dude looks like a lady
(That, that) Dude looks like a lady

Stephen Lynch - If I were gay
Here we are, dear old friends
You and I, drunk again
Laughs have been had and tears have been shed
Maybe the whiskey’s gone to my head

But if I were gay, I would give you my heart
And if I were gay you would be my work of art
And if I were gay we would swim in romance
But I’m not gay, so get your hand out of my pants

Bowling For Soup - High School Never Ends
Four years you would think for sure,
That’s all you have to endure
All the total dicks and the stuck up chicks
So superficial so immature
Then when you graduate,
You take a look around and say “Hey wait!”
This is the same as where I just came from
I thought it was over…oh, that’s just great.

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who’s the best dressed
And who’s having sex
Who’s got the money
And who’s gets the honeys
Who’s kinda cute and who’s just a mess?

Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry - There Ain't but one way
Well the world is facing problems, getting bigger everyday
Got a greenhouse over Texas, and recession’s on the way
We got hunger in the third world, we got anger in the first
Half the world is flooding and the other’s dying of thirst
Although people tell you the planet’s dying fast
Well, I ain’t seen a problem yet that can’t be solved by kicking ass

Hugh Laurie - Where is the Lid
Where is the lid?
Where is the lid?
Where is the, where is the, where is the where is the lid?
Where is the lid?

David Allen Coe - Dear Penis
Dear penis,
I don’t think I like you anymore
You use to watch me shave,
Now all you do is stare at the floor
Oh dear penis,
I don’t like you anymore

Ben Kweller - Lollipop
Call my baby lollipop,
Tell you why
Her kiss is sweeter than apple pie
And when she does her shaky rockin’ dance,
Man I haven’t got a chance

Bobby Vinton - Why Must I be a teenager in Love
Each time we have a quarrel,
It almost breaks my heart
‘Cause I’m so afraid
That we will have to part
Each time I ask the stars up above:
Why must I be a teenager in love?

Hawksley Workman – Striptease
In a house by the tracks
I want you I want you back
In a dress that’s faded black
I want you back I want you back

Audioslave – Like a Stone
In your house I long to be
Room by room
Patiently
I wait for you there
Like a stone
I wait for you there
Alone

The Fray – Without Reason
I don’t want to live this life
No I don’t want to live this life
Without Reason


Black Lab – Gates of the Country
Where is the ring?
Where is the boy who went traveling alone?
She’s much better without me
She walks through the gates of the country
Her hands at her side
And I smile as I watch her walk by


Black Lab – Circus Lights

I’ll be the tattooed man
You can be the acrobat
I’ll try and catch you when you fall
And we’ll be together then
Like a pair of Siamese twins
Entwined against the ground
Tell me what more could you ask for now


All-American Rejects – Swing Swing
The sun is gone
The nights are long
And I am left while the tears flow
Do you think that I would cry
on the phone?
Do you know what it feels like
Being alone?
I’ll find someone new


Blink 182 – What’s My Age Again
We started making out
And she took off my pants
But then I turned on the TV
That’s about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you’re 23


Creed – Higher
Although I would like the world to change
It helps me to appreciate those nights and those dreams
When my friend had sacrificed all those nights
If I could make the earth in my dreams the same


Coldplay – Speed of Sound
How long before I get in
Before it starts
Before I begin?
How long before you decide
Before I know what it feels like?
Where to, where do I go?
If you never try then you’ll never know
How long do I have to climb up on the side of this mountain of mine?


Boston - Amanda
Tomorrow’s so far away
Something I just have to say
I don’t think I could hide what I’m feeling inside
Another day, moment I love you

And I am getting to close again
I don’t want to see it end.
If I tell you tonight
Would you turn out the lights
Walk away
Knowing I love you?




Dido - Sand in my Shoes
2 weeks away feels like the whole world should have changed
But I'm home now
And things still look the same
I think I'll leave it til tomorrow to unpack
Try to forget for one more night
that I'm back in my flat...

Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would  it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong
and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong
here in heaven

Europe - The Final Countdown
We're leaving together
but still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back
To Earth, who can tell?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground
Will things ever be the same again?
It's the Final Countdown

Darren Hayes - Heartattack
You do whatever you please,
everybody else is left to bleed

You're a heartattack
and your heart is black
It's whacked your mind is jacked
How'd anybody ever get like that?

Darren Hayes - Strange Relationship
Do you love me?
Or am I just another trip in this strange relationship?
You push and pull me, yeah
I'm about to lose my mind
it's just a waste of time
Keep acting like you own me
I keep running
Watch me walking out that door
I hear you behind me...
Gimme that strange relationship

Five for Fighting - 100 years
There's never a wish better than this
When you've only got 100 years to live

Half the time goes by
suddenly your wise
and in the blink of an eye 
67 is gone, 
sun's getting high
we're moving on
(I love this song and was tempted to quote all of it)

Genesis (Phil Collins) - No Son Of Mine
Well the years they passed so slowly
I thought about him everyday
What would I do, if we passed on the street
Would I keep running away?

In and out of hiding places
Soon I'd have to face the facts
We'd have to sit down and talk it over
And that would mean going back

They say that time is a healer
And now my wounds are not the same
I rang that bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say...


Black Lab - Lonely Boy
Do you feel something pulling you back in?
Do you see something you want to see again?
I could be the one
I could make it up to you
Take me back
I'm the lonly boy who
Who loves you 

George Michael - Careless Whisper
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
waste a chance I have been given
So I'm never going to dance again
The way I've danced with you

Daryl Worley - Have you Forgotten?
Have you forgotten
how it felt that day?
To see your homeland under fire
and her people blown away
Have you forgotten 
when those towers fell?
We still had neighbors inside them
Going through a living Hell





Bare--Best Kept Secret
*thanks and huggles to a friend who made the sound recording from a You Tube vid for me! :D
(Peter)
All I ever want is there in your eyes,
They tell me I'm alright and I realize,
I always knew.
We whisper words when we're alone at night,
I want to hear them in the morning light.
Cuz with love on our side,
maybe we'd be alright.
Beneath a million stars there's no need to pretend,
I want to be with you, 
I think it's time that we end,
The best kept secret...

(Jason)
It's best kept secret...

Darren Hayes--Dublin Sky
I've been down a lonely street tonight.
And I don't know what's wrong with me,
I don't know what's wrong with me.
The clouds cover up the Dublin Sky,
I don't know what's left with me,
I don't know what's right with me.
And I try to keep my distance,
and I've sung Amazing Grace,
I've tarnished all out memories,
But there'll always be a trace of you
.

Savage Garden--Crash and Burn
When you feel all alone,
And the world has turned its back on you,
Give me a moment please,
To tame your wild wild heart.
I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you.
It's hard to find relief,
and people can be so cold.
When darkness is upon your door,
and you feel like you can't take any more.
Let me be the one you call,
if you jump I'll break your fall...


Soul Asylum--Runaway Train
Call you up in the middle of the night,
Like a firefly without a light.
You were there like a blowtorch burning,
I was a key that could use a little turning.
So tired that I couldn't even sleep,
So many secrets I couldn't keep.
Promise myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep
.


Barenaked Ladies--Lovers in a Dangerous Time
Don't the hours grow shorter as the days go by?
You never get to stop and open your eyes.
One minute your waiting for the sky to fall,
Next you're dazzled by the beauty of it all.
Lovers in a Dangerous time.


Seventh Day Slumber--When the Children Cry
Little child,
Dry your crying eyes.
How can I explain
The fear you feel inside?
'Cause you were born
Into this evil world,
Where man is killing man,
and no one knows just why.

What have we become?
Just look what we have done.
All that we've destroyed,
You must build again.


Alphaville--Fools
We've had our chance
Spin the world for just one dance.
Keep on dancing,
All you fools
the cups of fury have been filled.
Keep on dancing,
All you clowns
Just have a sip before we're killed.


Coldplay--The Scientist
Come up to meet you,
Tell you I'm sorry,
You don't know how lovely you are.
I have to find you,
Tell you I need you,
Tell you I've set you apart.


Rent--One Song (Glory)
One song,Glory
One song, before I go,Glory
One song to leave behind.
Find, one song
One last refrain
From the pretty boy front man
who wasted opportunity

Snow Patrol--Chasing Cars
We don't need
Anything
or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with my and just forget the world?
