So long ago
Was it in a dream, was it just a dream? I know, yes I know Seemed so very real, it seemed so real to me Took a walk down the street Thru the heat whispered trees I thought I could hear (hear, hear, hear) Somebody call out my name as it started to rain Two spirits dancing so strange Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Dream, dream away Magic in the air, was magic in the air? I believe, yes I believe More I cannot say, what more can I say? On a river of sound Thru the mirror go round, round I thought I could feel (feel, feel, feel) Music touching my soul, something warm, sudden cold The spirit dance was unfolding Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé |

I can hound you if I need to
Sip your brandy from a crystal shoe In the corner, in the corner While the others climb reaching dizzy heights The world's in front of me in black and white I'm on the bottom line, I'm on the bottom line I'd have a cardiac if I had such luck Lucky losers, lucky losers landing on skid row Landing on skid row While the Diamond Jims And the Kings road pimps Breath heavy in their brand new clothes I'm on the bottom line, I'm on the bottom line And I gotta get a meal ticket To survive you need a meal ticket To stay alive you need a meal ticket Feel no pain, no pain No regret, no regret When the line's been signed You're someone else Do yourself a favor, the meal ticket does the rest Shake a hand if you have to Trust in us and we will love you anyway, anyway Don't leave us stranded in the jungle With fifty percent that's hard to handle Ain't that so, ain't that so |

Where have you been are you still on my side
Is that love or regret that I see in your eyes How many years have we played out this game Every time we come close the answer's always the same I guess some souls get restless under the skin There's a shortage by half of marrying men I know that I love you but I love to be free So tell me what do you want, yeah from a gypsy like me I need a ring on my finger, champagne on ice One man to show me the best part of life Is that what you want Yeah, that's what I need A home and a family makes sense for us A solid foundation built out of trust Do you think you can find that with someone like me Two arms to hold you, one place to be Are just some of the things that a woman needs I've been shortchanged and cheated so many times But you're all that I've wanted For all of my life I've searched for the reasons, known how I've felt But what can I give you when I can't trust myself |

I don't know why I just know I do I just can't explain In this language that I use Something leaves me speechless Each time that you approach Each time you glide right through me As if I was a ghost If I only could tell you If you only would listen I've got a line or two to use on you I've got a romance we could christen And there's a word in Spanish I don't understand But I heard it in a film one time spoken by the leading man He said it with devotion, he sounded so sincere And the words he spoke in Spanish brought the female lead to tears A word in Spanish, a word in Spanish If you can't comprehend Read it in my eyes If you don't understand it's love In a thin disguise And what it takes to move you Each time that you resist Is more than just a pretty face To prove that I exist If I only could tell you If you only would listen I've got a line or two to use on you I've got a romance we could christen And there's a word in Spanish I don't understand But I heard it in a film one time spoken by the leading man He said it with devotion, he sounded so sincere And the words he spoke in Spanish brought the female lead to tears A word in Spanish, a word in Spanish When manners make no difference And my gifts all lay undone I trade my accent in on chance And fall back on a foreign tongue there's a word in Spanish I don't understand But I heard it in a film one time spoken by the leading man He said it with devotion, he sounded so sincere And the words he spoke in Spanish brought the female lead to tears A word in Spanish, a word in Spanish there's a word in Spanish, a word in Spanish |

This ain't no battle honey, this ain't no fight
How come you take it so hard when I stay out all night If I take a drink, is that against the law And if I have a good time, do you call that an act of war Well you better believe it boy, this house is your home I didn't build it up for you to live here on my own And if you think it's easy to forget about me You'd better think twice, you'd better believe it's an act of war We're living on the front line you and me Fighting on this battleground of misery Oh go ahead bring on your artillery And we'll make this an act of war Give it all you've got 'cause I'm all dug in Keep the punches coming I can take them on the chin Winner takes all, let the best man win And we call it an act of war Well I'm a man of convenience I work a long hard day After twelve long hours ain't I got the right to play If living together is getting in the way Then I call that an act of war Well if that's your game then honey two can play I'm going on the town tonight and have some fun my way Ain't no way baby this girl's gonna stay I call it, I call it an act of war And it looks like time ain't been on our side If we could turn the clock back We might survive this act of war |

Ain't nothing like the real thing Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby Ain't nothing like the real thing I got your picture hanging on my wall But it can't seem to come to me When I call your name I realized it's just a picture in a frame I read your letters but you're not here They don't move me, they don't groove me Like when I hear Your sweet voice whispering in my ear I play my games of fantasy I pretend I don't see reality I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me I got some memories to look back on Though they help me when you're gone I'm well aware Nothing can take the place of you being there No other sound is quite the same as your name No touch can do half as much To make me feel better Let's stay together I'm so So glad we got the real thing, baby So glad we got the real thing Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby Ain't nothing like the real thing |

The sister of sunlight
Comes to my lonely life Bearing the crosses I hung I hung on my lonely wife And the anchor told me If I prayed by the river That the sweet sound of water Would always go with her All across the havens to the waterfall They told me I would meet her there Inside those icy walls But how on earth in this universe Can they forgive me of my pains For all across the havens I must stumble locked in chains Then the mother of mercy Showed me her stable And told me you would be safe Safe in her cradle And the waterfall opened And the water withdrew Leaving me standing On a road leading through |

A youth asleep in the foreign soil, planted by the war Feel the pulse of human blood pouring forth See the stems of Europe bend under force All quiet All quiet All quiet on the Western Front So tired of this garden's grief, nobody cares Old kin kiss the small white cross, their only souvenir See the Prussian offense fly, weren't we grand To place the feel of cold sharp steel in their hands It's gone all quiet on the Western Front, male angels sigh Ghosts float in a flooded trench as Germany dies Fever reaps the flowers of France, fair-haired boys String the harps to Victory's voice, joyous noise |

Breaking down never seems to be that hard Falling short is always in the cards I'm on the road, sun rising at my back Lost it all somewhere between the cracks I always hoped that I'd do better That I'd come out on top for once We all get what we're delivered Then there are the lucky ones And I've got all that I'm allowed It'll do for me, I'm thankful now The walls get higher every day The barriers get in the way But I see hope in every cloud And I'm thankful, thankful I'm thankful, So thankful I'm thankful, I've got all that I'm allowed Leaving town gets to feel just like a job My desire never winds up on top I can say now I didn't want the moon It's out of reach somewhere beyond this room I always hoped that I'd do better That I'd come out on top for once We all get what we're delivered Then there are the lucky ones And I've got all that I'm allowed It'll do for me, I'm thankful now The walls get higher every day The barriers get in the way But I see hope in every cloud And I'm thankful, thankful I'm thankful, so thankful I'm thankful, I've got all that I'm allowed I've always tried to make things clear Then I watched as progress stalled I only hope I'm standing here When heaven finally comes to call |

Young boy just starting out So much history in this landscape So much confusion, so much doubt Been there drinking on that front porch Angry kids, mean and dumb Looks like a painting, that blue skyline God hates fags where we come from 'Western skies' don't make it right 'Home of the brave' don't make no sense I've seen a scarecrow wrapped in wire Left to die on a high ridge fence It's a cold, cold wind It's a cold, cold wind It's a cold wind blowing, Wyoming See two coyotes run down a deer Hate what we don't understand You pioneers give us your children But it's your blood that stains their hands Somewhere that road forks up ahead To ignorance and innocence Three lives drift on different winds Two lives ruined, one life spent |

It seems as though I've lived my life On the bad side of the moon To stir your dregs in sickness still Without the rustic spoon Common people live with me Where the light has never shone And the hermits flock like hummingbirds To speak in a foreign tongue I'm a light world away From the people who make me stay Sitting on the bad side of the moon There ain't no need for watchdogs here To justify our ways We live our life in manacles The main cause of our stay Exiled here from other worlds My sentence comes too soon Why should I be made to pay On the bad side of the moon |

I'm stoned in the twilight
Screaming on the inside Give me your water, help me survive Gonna miss the sunlight When I lose my eyesight Give me my red shoes, I want to dance They search for an answer But that old man wouldn't listen Back then I was handsome Back then he was ignorant And shave off the years now, it's all inside my head The boy in the red shoes is dancing by my bed Put them in a box somehere, put them in a drawer Take my red shoes, I can't wear them anymore Had garlands in the wings back then All the pretty little things back then Calling out my name, oh what fame brings After curtain calls and bows I can't see the front row now Hand me my red shoes just one more time They pushed aside our presence They refused to go the distance Back then I was Sigmund Back then he wouldn't listen |

Deep inside my soul fights a war
I can't explain, I can't cross over any more All I see are dirty faces Rain and wire, and common sense in pieces But I try to see through Irish eyes Belfast Look outside, summer's lost and gone It's a long walk on a street of right and wrong In every inch of sadness Rocks and tanks go hand in hand with madness But I never saw a braver place Belfast And it's sad when they sing, and hollow ears listen Of smoking black roses, on the streets of Belfast And so say your lovers from under the flowers Every foot of this world needs an inch of Belfast Who's to say on whom heaven smiles Our different ways we try hard to recognise No more enchanted evenings The pubs are closed and all the ghosts are leaving But you'll never let them shut you down Belfast And it's sad when they sing, and hollow ears listen Of smoking black roses, on the streets of Belfast And so say your lovers from under the flowers Every foot of this world needs an inch of Belfast The enemy is not at home A jealous green streaks down this faulty diamond No bloody boots or crucifix Can ever hope to split this emerald island But I never saw a braver place Belfast |

I believe in love, it's all we got
Love has no boundaries, costs nothing to touch War makes money, cancer sleeps Curled up in my father and that means something to me Churches and dictators, politics and papers Everything crumbles sooner or later But love, I believe in love I believe in love, it's all we got Love has no boundaries, no borders to cross Love is simple, hate breeds Those who think difference is the child of disease Father and son make love and guns Families together kill someone Without love, I believe in love Without love I wouldn't believe In anything that lives and breathes Without love I'd have no anger I wouldn't believe in the right to stand here Without love I wouldn't believe I couldn't believe in you And I wouldn't believe in me Without love I believe in love I believe in love I believe in love |

There was a face on a hoarding that someone had drawn on
And just enough time for the night to pass by without warning Away in the distance there's a blue flashing light Someone's in trouble somewhere tonight As the flickering neon stands ready to fuse The wind blows away all of yesterday's news Well they've locked up their daughters and they battened the hatches They always could find us but they never could catch us Through the grease streaked windows of an all night cafe We watched the arrested get taken away And that cigarette haze has ecology beat As the whores and the drunks filed in from the street Cause the steam's in the boiler, the coal's in the fire If you ask how I am, then I'll just say inspired If the thorn of a rose, is the thorn in your side Then you're better off dead, if you haven't yet died |

I wonder who′s sleeping in your sheets tonight
Whose head rests upon the bed Could it be a close friend I knew so well Who seems to be so close to you instead Close to you instead I′m blue tonight, I′m red when I′m mad I′m green when I′m jealous, yellow when I′m sad I guess I cannot have everything So much has flown between the years When I was twenty and you were seventeen So out of choice I chose rock and roll But it pushed me to the limit everyday It turned me into a gypsy, kept me away from home From there on, there seemed no use for you For you to stay And if I shower around 3 a.m. It′s just to wash away The trace of a love unwanted Oh in the times I went astray The times I went astray So much has flown between the years When I was twenty and you were seventeen |

Now I saw you talking to a cute little slip of a sailor
And it looked at first like the whole thing would end as a failure He had a thing about a quarter to four And he just couldn't handle any more He's got his own big dipper so he won't be needing your big dipper He's got his own big dipper and he won't be needing yours So you filled him up with all kinds of stuff to relax him And you took him down to the fairground after some action And by around about a quarter to six You found a different way to get your kicks Up on the real big dipper where you tried an few new tricks Big dipper Up on a great big dipper did you learn a few new licks He hadn't been too keen at the start Now he seems to have a change of heart He's got his own big dipper Only now he's not so sure, big dipper He's got his own big dipper But there's always room for more Everybody's got a song to sing Everybody's got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper And at around about a quarter to ten You got up and did it all again He's got his own big dipper and now he knows just what it's for Big dipper He's got his own big dipper but he's got his eye on yours Another ride, another tune Another crazy afternoon Another reason for squeezing your big dipper |

There's some things I don't have now
Some things I don't talk about These things are between myself and I In my thick skull the joker hides There's consequences I'm scared to taste Cold hard truths I can't face These days are different than the past Reflections change in the looking glass And everywhere I look there's something to learn A sliver of truth from every bridge we burn A hatful of quarters and a naked song Don't answer the question of where we belong How come birds Don't fall from the sky when they die? How come birds Always look for a quiet place to hide These words Can't explain what I feel inside? Like birds I need a quiet place to hide These independent moves I make This confidence I try to fake You can hear the beating of my heart But not a feather falling in the dark And everything I hear never makes any sense Another old prophet perched on the fence A cupful of pencils and a self help guru Don't answer the question of what I am to you |

I'm going on the circuit, I'm doing all the clubs
And I really need a song boys to stir those workers up And get their wives to sing it with me just like in the pubs When I worked the good old pubs in Stepney Oh could you knock a line or two together for a friend Sentimental tear inducing with a happy end And we need a tune to open our season at Southend Can you help us It's hard to write a song with bitter fingers So much to prove, so few to tell you why Those old die-hards in Denmark Street start laughing At the keyboard player's hollow haunted eyes It seems to me a change is really needed I'm sick of tra-la-las and la-de-das No more long days hacking hunks of garbage Bitter fingers never swung on swinging stars, swinging stars I like the warm blue flame, the hazy heat it brings It loosens up the muscles and forces you to sing You know it's just another hit and run from the tin pan alley twins And there's a chance that one day you might write a standard lads So churn them out quick and fast and we'll still pat your backs 'Cause we need what we can get to launch another dozen acts Are you working |

And I really need a song boys to stir those workers up And get their wives to sing it with me just like in the pubs When I worked the good old pubs in Stepney Oh could you knock a line or two together for a friend Sentimental tear inducing with a happy end And we need a tune to open our season at Southend Can you help us It's hard to write a song with bitter fingers So much to prove, so few to tell you why Those old die-hards in Denmark Street start laughing At the keyboard player's hollow haunted eyes It seems to me a change is really needed I'm sick of tra-la-las and la-de-das No more long days hacking hunks of garbage Bitter fingers never swung on swinging stars, swinging stars I like the warm blue flame, the hazy heat it brings It loosens up the muscles and forces you to sing You know it's just another hit and run from the tin pan alley twins And there's a chance that one day you might write a standard lads So churn them out quick and fast and we'll still pat your backs 'Cause we need what we can get to launch another dozen acts Are you working |

Bless you wherever you are
Windswept child on a shooting star Restless Spirits depart Still we're deep in each other's hearts Some people say it's over Now that we spread our wings But we know better darling The hollow ring is only last year's echo Bless you whoever you are Holding her now Be warm and kind hearted And remember though love is strange Now and forever our love will remain |

Hey you, you're a child in my head
You haven't walked yet Your first have yet to be said But I swear you'll be blessed I know you're still just a dream Your eyes might be green Or the bluest that I've ever seen Anyway, you'll be blessed And you, you'll be blessed You'll have the best I promise you that I'll pick a star from the sky Pull your name from a hat I promise you that, promise you that Promise you that you'll be blessed I need you before I'm too old To have and to hold To walk with you and watch you grow And know that you're blessed You'll be blessed |

I gotta quit this habit
It's like some drug for you You've been my sweet sweet addict I've been your little white boy blue You've got the same obsession We ain't no cat and mouse You linger on my lips like confession You laid the traps in this house And it's no use each way we lose You and me at the crossroads of Blue Avenue Hit and run hearts collide here True love passes through Looks like we've got a wreck babe Up on Blue Avenue Up on Blue Avenue Blue Avenue Two hearts get entangled Dirty minds they go to town Everyone's got an angle Little lies get spread around Let them say what they want You and me we already knew Takes more than hocus pocus babe To save you from Blue Avenue |

Blue eyes
Baby's got blue eyes Like a deep blue sea On a blue blue day Blue eyes Baby's got blue eyes When the morning comes I'll be far away And I say Blue eyes holding back the tears Holding back the pain Baby's got blue eyes And shes's alone again Blue eyes Baby's got blue eyes Like a clear blue sky Watching over me Blue eyes Ooh I love blue eyes When I'm by her side Where I long to be I will see Blue eyes laughing in the sun Laughing in the rain Baby's got blue eyes And I am home again Blue eyes laughing in the sun Laughing in the rain Baby's got blue eyes And I am home again |

from Elton John - Don'T Shoot Me I'M Only The Piano Player (2007)
Your old man got mad when I told him we were leaving
He cursed and he raged and he swore at the ceiling He called you his child, said honey get wise to his game He'll get you in trouble I know it, those bums are all the same There's a greyhound outside in the lane, it's waiting for us So tell him goodbye, we gotta go west on that bus And it's all over now Don't you worry no more Gonna go west to the sea The greyhound is swaying And the radio is playing Some blues for baby and me And the highway looks like it never did Lord it looks so sweet and so free And I can't forget that trip to the west Singing blues for baby and me Saw your hands trembling, your eyes opened in surprise It's ninety in the shade babe, and there ain't a cloud in the sky I called you my child, said honey now this is our game There's two of us to play it and I'm happy to be home again There's a greyhound outside in the lane, it's waiting for us So tell him goodbye, we gotta go west on that bus |

He wasn't famous but I sure did love him I've got his picture in a little frame He lost his life to a big disease before it even had a name But there's so many more and I've lost count The hows and whys aren't important now All that matters is they came around And brightened up our lives She was twenty one with her life ahead You don't need to know her name She breathed her last on the cold stone floor of a Hollywood arcade But fate's right hand isn't always just Puts a lot of pressure on your faith and trust She was just a little girl ain't that enough To rage against the day And how did we get so lucky Targets on the rifle range Who makes the call and who gets to choose Who gets to win and who gets to lose It's like a rolling dice in the belly of the blues And blues never fade away Hey hey hey the colors run when the rain falls But blues never fade away He shone so bright with a lust for life Like the Sun King that he was His passions hung upon his walls and were printed onto cloth And for reasons I never understood About the choices made between the bad and good I've tried to figure out but The pain never goes away And how did we get so lucky Targets on the rifle range Who makes the call and who gets to choose Who gets to win and who gets to lose It's like a rolling dice in the belly of the blues And blues never fade away Hey hey hey the colors run when the rain falls But blues never fade away And there's marble markers and little white crosses Along the beaten path And I've spread their ashes on the wind And I miss John Lennon's laugh And how did we get so lucky Targets on the rifle range Who makes the call and who gets to choose Who gets to win and who gets to lose how did we get so lucky Targets on the rifle range Who makes the call and who gets to choose Who gets to win and who gets to lose It's like a rolling dice in the belly of the blues And blues never fade away Hey hey hey colors run when the rain falls But blues never fade away |

Crime in the streets
I read about it everyday in the papers Justice needs and justice wants But just in times, yes, too late here Feels like I wasn′t born there I feel just like a Boogie Pilgrim Boogie Pilgrim Hustled to get it To get it together Down on the jive talk Down on the weather Boogie Pilgrim Brother I never felt better No, I never felt better Low life′s complete When you′ve lived that way out on the sidewalk (Walking on the sidewalk everyday) I got the speed if you got the need But the need in me needs nothing (But you know that I need nothing) But I know that you all want something Just like Boogie Pilgrim |

Holy Moses I have been removed
I have seen the specter he has been here too Distant cousin from down the line Brand of people who ain't my kind Holy Moses I have been removed Holy Moses I have been deceived Now the wind has changed direction and I'll have to leave Won't you please excuse my frankness but it's not my cup of tea Holy Moses I have been deceived I'm going back to the border Where my affairs, my affairs ain't abused I can't take any more bad water I've been poisoned from my head down to my shoes Holy Moses I have been deceived Holy Moses let us live in peace Let us strive to find a way to make all hatred cease There's a man over there what's his color I don't care He's my brother let us live in peace He's my brother let us live in peace He's my brother let us live in peace |
