Thursday Thirteen

Thirteen Song Lyrics with Mean and or a Message 1.... Wish you were Here - Pink Floyd So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell, Blue skys from pain. Can you tell a green field From a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell? And did they get you to trade Your heros for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange A walk on part in the war For a lead role in a cage? How I wish, how I wish you were here. We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl, Year after year, Running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears. Wish you were here. 2... Skating away on the thin of the New Day - Jethro Tull Meanwhile back in the year One when you belonged to no-one you didn't stand a chance son, if your pants were undone. `Cause you were bred for humanity and sold to society one day you'll wake up in the Present Day a million generations removed from expectations of being who you really want to be. 3... Hymn 43 - Jethro Tull Oh father high in heaven smile down upon your son whose busy with his money games his women and his gun. Oh Jesus save me! And the unsung Western hero killed an Indian or three and made his name in Hollywood to set the white man free. Oh Jesus save me! If Jesus saves -- well, He'd better save Himself from the gory glory seekers who use His name in death. Oh Jesus save me! I saw him in the city and on the mountains of the moon His cross was rather bloody He could hardly roll His stone. Oh Jesus save me! 4... Sorry - Buckcherry This time i think i'm to blame It's harder to get through the days We get older and blame turns to shame 'Cause everything inside it never comes out right And when i see you cry it makes me wanna die. I'm sorry i'm bad, i'm sorry i'm blue I'm sorry about all the things i said to you And i know i can't take it back I love how you kiss, i love all your sounds And baby the way you make my world go 'round And i just wanted to say i'm sorry. 5.... Through Glass - Stone Sour I'm looking at you through the glass... Don't know how much time has passed Oh god it feels like forever But no one ever tells you that forever Feels like home sitting all alone inside your head How do you feel? That is the question 6.... See you in the Light - Micheal Franti The vampires gather around me, angling to take a bite. They want to drink my blood of courage, and try to take away my fight. But no, no, no, they can't do that, no, for one truth I've learned in life. You want to scare away the vampires, you simply guide them into the light. 7.... I know am not alone - Michael Franti But I know, I know, I know I'm not alone and I know, I know, I know I'm not alone Every time I read the news, I'm always more confused they're tellin' me to choose but there's only lies to choose from How many died today? How many lost their homes or shot a gun, or a loved one? 8.... The Last Saskatchewan Pirate - Arrogant Worms I used to be a farmer, and I made a living fine, I had a little stretch of land along the city line But time went by and though I tried, the money wasnt there And bankers came and took my land and told me fair is fair I looked for every kind of job, the answer always no Hire you now? theyd always laugh, we just let twenty go! The government, the promised me a measly little sum But Ive got too much pride to end up just another bum. Then I thought, who gives a damn if all the jobs are gone? Im gonna be a pirate on the river saskatchewan!!! 9... What if God was one of Us - Alanis Morissette What if God was one of us? Just a slob like one of us Just a stranger on the bus Trying to make his way home Just trying to make his way home Back up to Heaven all alone Nobody callin' on the phon ecept for the Pope maybe in Rome 10.. Cemetery - The Headstones I got a gal who lives on the wrong side of town I know what I like and man you know I sure know how It's the other side another place I like it there no accounting for taste I can't think of nothing when I'm with her But the rain and the wind and the cemetery dirt Went down to the cemetery looking for love Got there and my baby was buried I had to dig her up Went down to the cemetery looking for love Got there and my baby was buried I had to dig her up 11... I Don't Wanna Stop - Ozzy Osborne All my life I've been over the top I don't know what I'm doing All I know is I don't wanna stop All fired up, I'm gonna go till I drop You're either in or in the way Don't make me, I don't wanna stop Why don't they ever listen to me? Is this the one way conversation? Nothing they say is gonna set me free Don't need no mental masturbation Too many religions for only one god I don't need another saviour Don't try to change my mind You know I'm one of a kind Ain't gonna change my bad behaviour 12.. Lovers In a Dangerous Time - Barenaked Ladies (Cover) Don't the hours grow shorter as the days go by You never get to stop and open your eyes One day you're waiting for the sky to fall And next you're dazzled by the beauty of it all When you're lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time 13... Imagine - John Lennon Imagine there's no Heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people Living for today Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace You may say that I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join usAnd the world will be as one Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people Sharing all the world You may say that I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will live as one
