Well I stepped into an avalanche, it covered up my soul; when I am not this hunchback that you see, I sleep beneath the golden hill. You who wish to conquer pain, you must learn, learn to serve me well.
You strike my side by accident as you go down for your gold. The cripple here that you clothe and feed is neither starved nor cold; he does not ask for your company, not at the centre, the centre of the world.
When I am on a pedestal, you did not raise me there. Your laws do not compel me to kneel grotesque and bare. I myself am the pedestal for this ugly hump at which you stare.
You who wish to conquer pain, you must learn what makes me kind; the crumbs of love that you offer me, they're the crumbs I've left behind. Your pain is no credential here, it's just the shadow, shadow of my wound.
I have begun to long for you, I who have no greed; I have begun to ask for you, I who have no need. You say you've gone away from me, but I can feel you when you breathe.
Do not dress in those rags for me, I know you are not poor; you don't love me quite so fiercely now when you know that you are not sure, it is your turn, beloved, it is your flesh that I wear.

Sometimes I don't even know how I'm gon' eat 'Bout twenty dollars away from being on the street Shit, you might see a nigga on tv But hell it's almost like I'm rappin' for free That little money be gone...got dammit, I'm grown Gotta help keep the heat and tights on It would be nice to have mo' but I kinda like being po' At least I know what my friends here fo' I wanna lie to you sometimes, but I can't I wanna tell you that it's all good, but it ain't It's nigga's hurtin' and uncertain 'bout if they gon' make it or not
That's why we got nigga's killing Feelin like they coming up off a little dope they sold You can get some gold but we won't make it as a whole Cause without you there'd be no me And without no unity there will never be any happiness You could smoke a pound of sess and it still won't relieve yo' stress

I remember stickin fiends at the one-six-ooh when we was starvin, duckin five-oh, payin em dues Times is hard in the slums I'm from, they got us barred in We warrin and cage dodgin, rippin and robbin Got the NARC sabotagin, slippin cracks in your camoflougin, now you snitchin on the squadron That's somethin niggaz can't pardon City overrun by young gun with bad intention, and Wu-Wear garment
So I see no need to mention, the potency of a sting from a killa bee, kickin the battery out the back of them wisecracks Distorted for your get high you hijack These friendly skies ain't for you, they for me and mine This the year of the grimy nigga, ragtime Keep these niggaz on the run, peep my Clan emblem Iron Lung ain't got to tell you where it's comin from
Catch us swimmin with these sharks now, you rap villains (I feel the same way you niggaz feelin) We feel the same way you feelin, let it be known (let it be known)
*together* What the blood clot you niggaz dealin, you crash dummies
Cash rules, still don't nuttin move but the money

Nirvana Dumb
I'm not like them But i can pretend The sun has gone But i have a light The day is done But i'm having fun I think i'm dumb
Or maybe just happy Think i'm just happy Think i'm just happy Think i'm just happy
My heart is broken But i have some glue Help me inhale And mend it with you We'll float around And hang out on clouds Then we'll fall down
And have a hangover Have a hangover Have a hangover Have a hangover
Skin the sun Fall asleep Wish away The soul is cheap Lesson learned Wish me luck Soothe the burn Wake me up
I'm not like them But i can pretend The sun has gone But i have a light The day is done But i'm having fun I think i'm dumb
Or maybe just happy Think i'm just happy Think i'm just happy Think i'm just happy
I think i'm dumb I think i'm dumb

Nirvana Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle
It's so relieving to know that you're leaving as soon as you get paid
It's so relaxing to hear that your asking wherever you get your way
It's so soothing to know that you'll sue me, this is starting to sound the same
I miss the comfort in being sad I miss the comfort in being sad I miss the comfort in being sad
In her false witness, hope you're still with us, to see if they float or drown
Our favourite patient, a display of patience, disease-covered Puget-Sound
She'll come back as fire, to burn all the liars, and leave a blanket of ash on the ground
I miss the comfort in being sad I miss the comfort in being sad I miss the comfort in being sad
It's so relieving to know that you're leaving as soon as you get paid
It's so relaxing to hear that you're asking wherever you get your way
It's so soothing to know that you'll sue me, this is starting to sound the same
I miss the comfort in being sad I miss the comfort in being sad I miss the comfort in being sad

in pitch dark i go walking in your landscape. broken branches trip me as i speak. just coz you feel it doesnt mean its there. just coz you feel it doesnt mean its there.
there's always a siren singing you to shipwreck. (dont reach out, dont reach out) stay 4ft away we'd be a walking disaster. (dont reach out, dont reach out) just coz you feel it doesn't mean its there. (theres someone on your shoulder) just coz you feel it doesn't mean its there. (theres someone on your shoulder)
why so green and lonely?
heaven sent you to me.

sorry ninja... I just listed songs with lyrics I like.. Uhm...
Half our lives are spent in a bed only a fraction of it loving someone most of our life is wasted in our head In futile contemplation
take off the facade break the alienation its breeds like a bitch when we 'let it be' john lennon listen to me walk into danger Talk to a stranger who's eating peanut butter and bleating like a nutter
My mate called Alan Got whipped by a nun now he's playing roulette In a villa in the sun I once played golf with the pope who let me into secrets of his stroke he put his hand down his pants just like adam and the ants now he eats hash browns and has a smoke
.(.. i think i need to work on it.../:)

Ist Newtons Gravitätlichkeit natürliches Gesetz? Natürlich nicht, eher ein Verbrechen, denn ich hab' sie nicht bestellt. Grad' gegen seine Apfelfalle hab' ich mich gewehrt, sie wurde gegen meinen Willen trotzdem installiert. Seitdem hat sich mir die Fliegerei um einiges erschwert.
Holt sie die Firma wider ab dann bleibe ich kulant, tun sie's nicht, dann sag' ich jetzt und hier, das ich für nichts mehr garantier'. Selbst in einem Schwerkraftregelkreis kann die Regal leicht zerbrechen
und das ist nur für Bleierne und Flügellahme - Verbrechen.
(Is Newton's graviagitation a natural law? Naturally not, more likely a crime, because I didn't ask for it. Above all his apple-pitfall I oppose but against my wishes it was installed anyway. Since them I find flying increasingly heavy.
If the firm picks it up again I'll be most obliging. If it doesn't, then I warn you now and here I can guarantee nothing, I fear Even in a gravity feedback control unit the unity can easily break
and that's just for the leaden and the lame-winged a crime.)

The roof the roof the roof is on fire We don't need no water let the motherfucker burn Burn mother fucker burn Hello my name is Jimmy Pop and I'm a dumb white guy I'm not old or new but middle school fifth grade like junior high
I don't know mofo if y'all peeps be buggin' given props to my ho cause she fly
But I can take the heat cause I'm the other white meat known as 'Kid Funky Fried'
Yea I'm hung like planet Pluto hard to see with the naked eye
But if I crashed into Uranus I would stick it where the sun don't shine
Cause I'm kind of like Han Solo always stroking my own wookie
I'm the root of all that's evil yea but you can call me cookie
The roof the roof the roof is on fire We don't need no water let the motherfucker burn Burn mother fucker burn Yo yo this hard-core ghetto gangster image takes a lotta practice
I'm not black like Barry White no I am white like Frank Black is
So if man is five and the devil is six than that must make me seven
This honkey's gone to heaven But if I go ta hell well then I hope I burn well I'll spend my days with J.F.K., Marvin Gaye, Martha Raye, and Lawrence Welk
And Kurt Cobain, Kojak, Mark Twain and Jimi Hendrix's poltergeist
And Webster yea Emmanuel Lewis cause he's the Anti-Christ The roof the roof the roof is on fire We don't need no water let the motherfucker burn Burn mother fucker burn Everybody here we go Ohh Ohh C'mon party people Ohh Ohh Throw your hands in the air Ohh Ohh C'mon party people Ohh Ohh Wave em' like you don*t care Ohh Ohh C'mon party people Ohh Ohh Everybody say ho Ohh Ohh C'mon party people Ohh Ohh Everybody here we go

down the street you can hear her scream "you're a disgrace" as she slams the door in his drunken face and now he stands outside and all the neighbours start to gossip and drool he cries "Oh, girl you must be mad, what happened to the sweet love you and me had?" against the door he leans and starts a scene, and his tears fall and burn the garden green
and so castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually
a little indian brave who before he was ten, played wargames in the woods with his indian friends and he built up a dream that when he grew up he would be a fearless warrior indian cheif many moons past and more the dream grew strong until tomorrow he would sing his first warsong and fight his first battle
but something went wrong, surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night
and so castles made of sand melts into the sea, eventually
there was a young girl, whos heart was a frown 'cause she was crippled for life, and she couldn't speak a sound and she wished and prayed she could stop living, so she decided to die she drew her wheelchair to the edge of the shore and to her legs she smiled "you won't hurt me no more" but then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say "look a golden winged ship is passing my way"
and it really didn't have to stop, it just kept on going...
and so castles made of sand slips into the sea, eventually

Spice Girls - 2 Become 1
Candle light and soul forever, a dream of you and me together, Say you believe it, say you believe it, Free your mind of doubt and danger, be for real don’t be a stranger, We can achieve it, we can achieve it Come a little bit closer baby, get it on, get it on, 'Cause tonight is the night when two become one
I need some love like I never needed before (wanna make love to ya baby) I had a little love, now I’m back for more (wanna make love to ya baby) Set your spirit free, it’s the only way to be
Silly games that you were playing, empty words we both were saying, Lets work it out boy, let’s work it out boy, Any deal that we endeavour, boys and girls feel good together, Take it or leave it
Are you as good as I remember baby, get it on, get it on, 'Cause tonight is the night when two become one
I need some love like I never needed before (wanna make love to ya baby) I had a little love, now I’m back for more (wanna make love to ya baby) Set your spirit free, it’s the only way to be
Be a little bit wiser baby, put it on, put it on, 'Cause tonight is the night when two become one
I need some love like I never needed before (wanna make love to ya baby) I had a little love, now I’m back for more (wanna make love to ya baby) I need some love like I never needed before (wanna make love to ya baby) I had a little love, now I’m back for more (wanna make love to ya baby) Set your spirit free, it’s the only way to be
Its the only way to be

Naked - Spice Girls
Naivety and childhood left behind deprived of the goodness of mankind,
Past encounters have made her strong, strong enough to carry on and on
Undress you with her eyes, uncover the truth from the lies, Strip you down don't need to care, lights are low exposed and bare
Naked Nothing but a smile upon her face Naked She wants to play seek and hide, no-one to hide behind Naked This child has fallen from grace Naked Don't be afraid to stare she is only naked
She knows exactly what to do with men like you, Inside out in her mind there's no doubt where you're coming from
Mystery will turn you on
Undress you with her eyes, uncover the truth from the lies, Strip you down don't need to care, lights are low exposed and bare
Naked Nothing but a smile upon her face Naked She wants to play seek and hide, no-one to hide behind Naked This child has fallen from grace Naked Don't be afraid to stare she is only naked
Hello, its me I thought you'd understand Well maybe I should have kept my mouth shut I keep seeing such a pretty picture I'd rather be hated than pitied Maybe I should have left it to your imagination I just want to be me
This angel's dirty face is sore, holding on to what she had before.
Not sharing secrets with any old fool, now she's gonna keep her cool,
She wants to get naked She wants to get naked
Naked Nothing but a smile upon her face Naked She wants to play seek and hide, no-one to hide behind Naked This child has fallen from grace Naked Don't be afraid to stare she is only naked (Repeat to fade)

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

LOOKING FOR FREEDOM by: David Hasselhoff
One morning in June some twenty years ago I was born a rich man's son I had everything that money could buy but freedom - I had none
I've been lookin' for freedom I've been lookin' so long I've been lookin' for freedom still the search goes on I've been lookin' for freedom since I left my home town I've been lookin' for freedom still it can't be found
I headed down the track, my baggage on my back I left the city far behind walkin' down the road, with my heavy load tryin' to find some peace of mind father said you'll be sorry, son, if you leave your home this way and when you realize the freedom money buys you'll come running home some day
I paid a lotta dues, had plenty to lose travelling across the land worked on a farm, got some muscle in my arm but still I'm not a self-made man I'll be on the run for many years to come I'll be searching door to door but, given some time, some day I'm gonna find the freedom I've been searchin' for

Inner breathlessness, outer restlessness By the time I caught up to freedom I was out of breath Grandma asked me what I'm running for I guess I'm out for the same thing the sun is sunning for What mothers birth their youngens for And some say Jesus coming for For all I know the earth is spinning slow Suns at half mast cause masses ain't a glow On bended knee, Prostrate before an altered tree I've made the forest suit me Tables and chairs Papers and prayers Matter versus spirit A metal ladder A wooden cross A plastic bottle of water A Mandela encased in glass A spirit encased in flesh Sound from shaped hollows The thickest of mucus released from heightened passion A man that cries in his sleep A truth that has gone out of fashion A mode of expression A paint splattered wall A carton of cigarettes A bouquet of corpses A dying forest A nurtured garden A privatized prison A candle with a broken wick A puddle that reflects the sun A piece of paper with my name on it I'm surrounded I surrender All All that I am I have been All I have been has been a long time coming I am becoming all that I am The spittle that surrounds the mouth-piece of the flute Unheard, yet felt A gathered wetness A quiet moisture Sound trapped in a bubble Released into wind Wind fellows and land merchants We are history's detergent Water soluble, light particles, articles of cleansing breath
Articles amending death These words are not tools of communication They are shards of metal Dropped from eight story windows They are waterfalls and gas leaks Aged thoughts rolled in tobacco leaf The tools of a trade Barbers barred, barred of barters Catch phrases and misunderstandings But they are not what I feel when I am alone Surrounded by everything and nothing And there isn't a word or phrase to be caught A verse to be recited A man to de-fill my being in those moments I am blankness that contains center of an "O" The par

CONTINUED
The paramedic containment of an "A" I stand in the middle of all that I have learned All that I have memorized All that I've known by heart Unable to reach any of it There is no sadness There is no bliss It is a forgotten memory A memorable escape route that only is found by not looking There, in the spine of the dictionary the words are worthless
They are a mere weight pressing against my thoughtlessness But then, who else can speak of thoughtlessness with such confidence
Who else has learned to sling these ancient ideas like dead rats held by their tails so as not to infect this newly oiled skin I can think of nothing heavier than an airplane I can think of no greater conglomerate of steel and metal I can think of nothing less likely to fly There are no wings more weighted I too have felt a heaviness The stare of a man guessing at my being Yes I am homeless A homeless man making offerings to the after-future Sculpting rubber tree forests out of worn tires and shoe soles
A nation unified in exhale A cloud of smoke A native pipe ceremony All the gathered cigarette butts piled in heaps Snow covered mountains Lipsticks smeared and shriveled Offerings to an afterworld Tattoo guns and plastic wrappers Broken zippers and dead eyed dolls It's all overwhelming me, oak and elming me I have seeded a forest of myself Little books from tall trees It matters not what this paper be made of Give me notebooks made of human flesh Dried on steel hooks and nooses Make uses of use, uses of us It's all overwhelming me, oak and elming me I have seeded a forest of myself Little books from tall trees On bended knee Prostrate before an altered tree I've made the forest suit me Tables and chairs Papers and prayers Matter vs. spirit, through meditation I program my heart to beat breakbeats and hum basslines on exhalation
