American Girl (Tom Petty)

Go!

She was an American girl
Raised on promises
She started thinking that there was a little more to life
Somewhere else
After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
Yeah, she had to die

Die did she

She had one little promise

She was gonna keep

Oh yeah

All right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night (make it last all night)
She was an American girl

It was kind of cold that night
She stood alone on the balcony
She could hear the cars roll by
Out on four forty one

Like waves crashing on the beach
And for one desperate moment there
She crept back in her memory
God, it's so painful

When something that's so close
Is still so far out of reach

Oh yeah

All right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night (make it last all night)
She was an American girl

Oh ho (3x)

Oh yeah

All right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all goddamn night
She was

An American girl (8x)

But the phone's been cut
Can you hear me (Ooh can you hear me?)

‘Cause my baby won't know

On the telephone line

And my bags are all packed
I'm late already and I won't be back
Can you hear me? (Ooh can you hear me?)

The Boys Are Back In Town (Thin Lizzy)

Look who just got back today
Those wild-eyed boys that had been away
They haven't changed, haven't much to say
But man, I still think those cats are great

They was asking if you were around
How you was and where you could be found
I told them you were living downtown
Driving all those old men crazy

The boys are back in town (boys are back in town)

I said the boys are back in town

The boys are back in town

There was this chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor

Shaking what she'd got
I tell you she was cool

She was red hot
I mean she was steaming

Remember that night over at Johnny 's place
Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny 's face
Man we just fell about the place
If that chick don't want to know

Forget her!

The boys are back in town (boys are back in town)

I said the boys are back in town

The boys are back in town

The boys are back in town (boys are back in town)

The boys are back in town

The boys are back in town

Ohh!

Whoa

Spread the word around

Guess who’s back in town

Spread the word around

Guess who’s back in town

Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's bar and grill
The drinks will flow and blood will spill
If the boys want to fight

You'd better let them

That jukebox in the corner

Blasting out my favorite song
The nights are getting warmer

It won't be long
It won't be long ‘till summer comes
Now that the boys are here again

The boys are back in town

The boys are back in town

The boys are back in town (5x)

Spread the word around (2x)

Oh oh

The boys are back in town again

Yeah they’re hanging out at Dino’s

The boys are back in town again (3x)

Connection (Rolling Stones)

All I want to do

Is get back to you
Connection

I just can't make no connection
And all I want to do

Is to get back to you

Everyday is going in the wrong direction
The doctor wants to give me more injections
Giving me shots for a thousand rare infections
And I don't know

If he'll let me go

Connection

I just can't make no connection
All I want to do

Is to get back to you

Everything is going through a fine collection
I wonder why they give it their perspective
They're dying to add me to their collection
I don't know

If they'll let me go

Connection

I just can't make no connection
And all I want to do

Is to get back to you

Hey hey hey

Connection

I just can't make no connection
And all I want to do

Is to get back to

Hey hey hey

Connection

I just can't make no connection

And all I want to do

Is to get back to you

Connection

I just can't make no connection
And all I want to do

Is to get back to you

Don’t Change (INXS)

I'm standing here

On the ground
The sky above

Won't fall down
See no evil

In all direction

Resolution

Of happiness
Things have been dark
For too long

Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
Yeah, don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me

I found a love

That I had lost
It was gone

For too long
I hear no evil

In all directions
Execution

Of bitterness
Message received

Loud and clear

Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
Yeah, don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me

How Soon Is Now? (The Smiths)

I am the son

I am the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir

Of nothing in particular

Shut your mouth

How can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
Yeah, just like everybody else does

I am the son

Go go go!


There is a club if you'd like to go
You could meet someone who really loves you
So you go and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home and you cry and you want to die

Yeah you wanna die (3x)

Go!

Our Lips Are Sealed (The Go-Go’s)

Can you hear them
They talk about us
They’re telling lies
Well that's no surprise

Can you see them
See right through them
Yeah that happens to you
Nothing gets through for you

Doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play
Yes our lips are sealed

When we walk by
Then we must chose
In our defense
Silence

Can you look at them
Look right through them
That's when they'll disappear
That's when we'll be feared

Doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play
Yes our lips are sealed

Pay no mind to what they say
It doesn't matter anyway
Hey hey hey

Pocahontas (Neil Young)

Aurora borealis
The icy sky at night
Our paddles break the water
In a long and hurried flight
From the white man

And the fields of green
And the homeland

We've never seen

They killed us in our teepee
They cut our women down
They might have left some babies
Crying on the ground
But the big guns

And the wagon wheels come
Yes, and the night falls

On the setting sun

They massacred the buffalo (Ayayay)
Kitty corner from the bank (Ayayay)
The taxis run across my feet (Ayayay)
And my eyes have turned to blanks (Ayayay)
In my little room

At the top of the stairs
With an Indian rug

And a pipe to share

Go!

I wish a was a trapper (Ayayay)
I would give thousand pelts (Ayayay)
To sleep with Pocahontas (Ayayay)
And to find out how she felt (Ayayay)
In the morning on the fields of green
In the homeland we've never seen


Yes and maybe Marlon Brando (Ayayay)
Will be there by the fire (Ayayay)
We'll sit and talk of Hollywood (Ayayay)
And the good things there for hire (Ayayay)
And the Astrodome

And the first teepee
Oh,  Marlon Brando , Pocahontas , and me
Yeah, Marlon Brando , Pocahontas , and me
Pocahontas

Search And Destroy (Iggy Pop)

I'm a street walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm
I'm a runaway son of the nuclear A-bomb
I am the world's most forgotten boy
The one who searches and destroys

Honey please help me out
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby please pray for me

Whoa!

The one who's searches

Searches to destroy
I'm the world's most forgotten boy
The one who's searches

Speed Racer (Speed Racer Theme Song)


Go

Go! (8x)

Here he comes

here comes speed racer
He's a demon on wheels
He's a demon
And he's gonna be chasing after someone.

He's gaining on you
So you better look alive
He's busy revving up
The powerful Mach-5

And when the odds are against him
And there's dangerous work
You can bet your life speed racer
Will see it through

Go Speed Racer
Go Speed Racer
Go Speed Racer Go!

Go Speed Racer
Go Speed Racer
Go Speed Racer Go!

He's off and flying
As he guns his car around the track
He's jamming down the pedal
Like he's never coming back
Adventures waiting just ahead!

[Go Speed Racer
Go Speed Racer
Go Speed Racer Go!] (6x)

Go (9x)

Here he comes

Here comes Speed Racer
He's a demon on wheels (2x)

This Land Is Your Land (Woody Guthrie)

As I was walking

A ribbon of highway

I saw above me

An endless skyway

I saw below me

A golden valley

Yeah, this land

Was made for you and me

I've roamed and rambled

And followed my footsteps

To the sparkling sands of

Her diamond deserts

And all around me

A voice was calling

This land was made

For you and me

This land is your land

This land is my land

From California

To the New York Island

From the Redwood forest

To the Gulf Stream waters

This land was made

For you and me

The sun comes shining

As I was strolling

The wheat fields waving

And the dust clouds rolling

And the fog was lifting

And a voice come calling

This land was made

For you and me

This land is your land

This land is my land

From California

To the New York Island

From the Redwood Forest

To the Gulf Stream waters

This land was made

For you and me

Oh!

This land is your land

This land is my land

From California

To the New York Island

From the Tillamook forest

To the Oregon waters

Yeah, this land was made

For you and me

This land is your land

This land is my land

From California

To the New York Island

From the Redwood Forest

To the Gulf Stream waters

This land was made

For you and me

This land is your land

This land is my land

From California

To the New York Island

From the Redwood Forest

To the Gulf Stream waters

Yeah, this land was made

For you and me

Who will stay to the end
What do I get

What do I get
Oh oh what do I get
What do I get

Oh oh what do I get

What do I get

Oh oh what do I get

Alone here in my half-empty bed
For you things seem to turn out right
I wish they'd only happen to me instead

What do I get
Oh oh what do I get

I only get sleepless nights
Alone here in my half-empty bed
