Sound Of The Morning

A lazy man yawns in bed
While his boss keeps cursing him in his head

Your friendly neighbour waves goodbye
While watering her plants so they don't go dry

A chirpy bird makes his way
In search of food and a new place to stay

The paper boy tries to aim,
But he misses the door step, yet again

Its the sound of the morning, Yeah
Yeah
Its the sound of the morning, Yeah
Yeah

A holy man starts his day
On his knees, to God he prays

Somewhere a girl bursts to tears
As she wakes up to her worst fears

Your baby boy starts to coo
You're looking at another you

The clinking of bicycle bells
And barking dogs, adds up to hell

Oh... but...its the sound of the morning, Yeah
Yeah
Its the sound of the morning, Yeah
Yeah
Its the sound of the morning, Yeah
Yeah
Its the sound of the morning, Yeah
Yeah

It's a new day
A new start
Wake up to the sounds around you
Take a deep breadth
As you lie in bed
Wake up to the sounds around you

Its the sound of the morning, Yeah
Yeah
Its the sound of the morning, Yeah
Yeah
Its the sound of the morning, Yeah
Yeah
Everybody has a sound of the morning, Yeah
Yeah
What's your sound of the morning?

Bubblegum Lips

You make me feel like a little girl
I giggle and blush when you look at me
They say you’re evil, oh a lot I’ve heard
But I like to go by what I see

And I saw you in a dream last night
Lookin’ so cute in your dimpled cheeks
And I wished i’d stay asleep all night
Kissing you on your bubble gum lips

Yeah, bubblegum lips, yeah

You try to ignore me when I’m there
Laughin’ with your friends, actin’ cool
But honey, don’t you understand, I don’t really care
Cos I know I can get you, whenever I want to

I can see you in my dreams, every night
Lookin’ so cute in your dimpled cheeks
Oh, I’d like to stay asleep, as long as I can
Cos i’ll be kissing you on your bubblegum lips

Yeah, bubblegum lips, yeah
I wonder if you’re really as soft
Really as sweet
Really as inviting
As I imagine it is
I wonder if you’re really as tender
Really as flushed
Really as tempting
As…

Yeah, bubblegum lips, yeah
Yeah, bubblegum lips, yeah

You’re bubblegum lips, yeah.

Love, Life n Music

It may not make perfect sense... :P but it does to me in some strange way. And... well... most people don't realise, that one of the best things in life... is life itself... is the fact that you're alive...!!!! So no matter how shitty your life is... you're alive.. and you need to be grateful for that. Life... is better than no life!!! Cos when you have life... you know you can shape it to suit yourself.

So love, life and music it is for me! The 3 best things in life.

-----

I've been here before though it seems different now
I'm much older, but it doesn't seem that long

My life it took, one big circle and left me
At the start of a new track where i belong

Confusion and excitement
And everything in between
Don't let it get the best of you
Cos all you'll ever really need is

Lo-o-ve
To keep your feet off the ground
Li-i-fe
To know what goes around comes around
Mu-u-sic
That's the cure for when you're feeling down
And there's the 3 best things in life

Lo-o-ve
To keep your feet off the ground
Li-i-fe
To know what goes around comes around
Mu-u-sic
That's the cure for when you're feeling down
And that's all you'll ever need in this life

Nothing is for sure in this unpredictable life
So why waste time in what's not ours to find

You'll learn your lessons, as life goes by
So keep remembering, all that you've left behind

Heart burns and attitude
And everything in between
Don't let it get the best of you
Cos all you'll ever really need is

Lo-o-ve
To keep your feet off the ground
Li-i-fe
To know what goes around comes around
And mu-u-sic
It's the cure for when you're feeling down
And there's the 3 best things in life

Lo-o-ve
To keep your feet off the ground
Li-i-fe
To know what goes around comes around
Mu-u-sic
That's the cure for when you're feeling down
And that's all you'll ever need in this life

Lo-o-ve
To keep your feet off the ground
Li-i-fe
To know what goes around comes around
And mu-u-sic
It's the cure for when you're feeling down
And there's the 3 best things in life

Lo-o-ve
To keep your feet off the ground
Li-i-fe
To know what goes around comes around
Mu-u-sic
That's the cure for when you're feeling down
And that's all you'll ever need in this life

Fly Me Home

Written way back in 2001. Used to love singing this one.

-----

Inside the deep blue sky I can see
Faces of my family
And outside in the crowded streets, I can see
My baby who’s waiting for me

And I know
When I look into my soul
I get this feeling deep inside of me
That makes me wanna rush back home

Fly me home
Back to where I belong
Take me back
You know I’ve missed you so long

Fly me home
Back to where I belong
Take me home
You know I’ve missed you so long

Ohhh right now

Every time I turn my back, I can hear
You calling my name softly
Nothing makes sense anymore
This ain’t the life I was supposed to lead

And I know
Every time I’m feeling low
I get this feeling deep inside of me
That makes me wanna rush back home

Fly me home
Back to where I belong
Take me back
You know I’ve missed you so long

Fly me home
Back to where I belong
Take me home
You know I’ve missed you so long

Ohhh right now
Right now

I’ve waited
This long
I tried my best to stay without you
Baby
I can’t go on
Need to come back home to you

Fly me home
Back to where I belong
Take me back
You know I’ve missed you so long

Fly me home
Back to where I belong
Take me home
You know I’ve missed you so long

Ohhh right now.

The Real You

Tell me everything's gonna be okay
And i'll believe you
It don't matter, what other people say
I believe you

Hold me, anytime you're feeling low
I will let you
You've got me on your lasso
I won't judge you

You can push me around
Make me weep
I'll still hold on tight
You know me

You can try to ignore
Say hurtful things
But i'll still hold on tight
You know me

Cos baby I've
I've seen a side of you
That you never knew
You had inside you
Yeah
And baby I've
Grown to love that you
Even though you do what you do
I will stay true
To loving the real you

We kiss, every time we meet
And i stay hopeful
As you show signs to retreat
I'm still hopeful

You can pretend to lie
About your feelings
I'll still hold on tight
You know me

You can try to explain
It's not meant to be
But i'll still hold on tight
You know me

Cos baby I've
I've seen a side of you
That you never knew
You had inside you
Yeah
And baby I've
Grown to love that you
Even though you do what you do
I will stay true
To loving the real you

You can try to ignore
Say hurtful things
But i'll still hold on tight
You know me

Cos baby I've
I've seen a side of you
That you never knew
You had inside you
Yeah
And baby I've
Grown to love that you
Even though you do what you do
I will stay true
To loving the real you

Round n Round

A sexy song after 3 months!!! :)

-----

Round n round n round n round
ye-eh-ah
round n round n round n round
wo-oh-ah
Round n round n round n round
ye-eh-ah

All this thirst and want surrounding you
ye-eh-ah
With your kiss so sweet and skin so smooth
wo-oh-ah
My knees get weak, when you seduce
ye-eh-ah
Lets rock n roll, baby bring on your moves

The first look, better than fantasy
Ye-eh-ah
Your fingers glide down my back gently
wo-oh-ah
I swear if looks could kill, you'd be killing me
ye-eh-ah
Take off your shoes, don't make me beg please!

Round n round n round we go
Round n round again
Round n round n round we go
Cutting out all emotion and pain

Every inch of your body so sexy
ye-eh-ah
That everything starts rising within me
wo-oh-ah
Rolling around until it all gets foggy
ye-eh-ah
You make me wanna scream babe, i can't deny it

Round n round n round we go
Round n round again
Round n round n round we go
Cutting out all emotion and pain
Round n round n round we go
Better than Novocaine
Round n round n round we go
Round n round
Round n round again

Get Out!

Every now and then, I try my hand at a genre I really really love - silly Punk :P

-----

Somebody
told me
love is
an epiphany
just one flash
its easy
you'll be lost
in destiny
you'll lie in bed
not sleepy
thinking about
her beauty
don't be duped
by her boobies
they all end up
as screaming banshees

So get out, get out, get out, get out
Oh Please get out, get out, get out, get out
Hell yeah get out, get out, get out, get out
Before she knows where to squeeze.

Elizabeth
and Connie
were the first to
release me
strawberries &
cherries
nothing was too
kinky
and all of the
memories
were just as sweet
as Candy
but soon they got
greedy
and I was left
with no money

So get out, get out, get out, get out
Oh Please get out, get out, get out, get out
Hell yeah get out, get out, get out, get out
Before they learn where to squeeze.

I saw her
At a party
Looking somewhat
Tipsy
I helped her
On her 2 feet
When she said
She was horny
We got
Touchy-feely
I undressed
In a scurry
Then she laughed
Loudly
And pointed her gun
Straight at me!

Everybody get out, get out, get out, get out
Hell yeah get out, get out, get out, get out
You should get out, get out, get out, get out
Yeah, get out, get out, get out, get out
Get out, get out, get out, get out
Oh Please get out, get out, get out, get out
Hell yeah get out, get out, get out, get out
Before you end up just like me.

Why?

Why do i need you?
Is it because my mind goes haywire, and i can't function without you?

Why do i want you?
Is it because you keep me waiting, impatiently, for more?

Why can't i trust you?
Is it because you're too simple and good to be true?

Why should i leave you?
Is it because you don't show me that i'm worth trying for?

Why can't i let go?
Is it because you're like a drug i never knew?

Why do i love you?
Is it because after all the pain you've caused me, my heart can never feel sore?

One Way Zone

The woman in the black dress
She blew my mind
Sippin' alone
She looked so fine

Everybody was starrin'
Thinkin' up lines
One walked right on
and tried to shine

He said, "the music's too loud
Can't hear you over the crowd.
Let's go some place we'll be alone."

She said, "I've heard that before
You're just trying to score.
You gotta woo me if you want to go down that one way zone."

The DJ kept her groovin'
She knew all the songs
I was left waiting
All night long

When her glass got empty
Somebody would come along
This time
It was Mr. Hong Kong

He said, "the music's too loud
Can't hear you over the crowd.
Let's go some place we'll be alone."

She said, "I've heard that before
You're just trying to score.
You gotta woo me if you want to go down that one way zone."

One way zone (4x)

I said, "You're mesmerizin'
My heart went crashin'
I dreamt of you when I stood alone"

I said, "When the music stops playin'
I want you whisperin'
'Just take me to your one way zone'"

He said, "the music's too loud
Can't hear you over the crowd.
Let's go some place we'll be alone."

She said, "I've heard that before
You're just trying to score.
You gotta woo me if you want to go down that one way zone."

She said, "the music's stopped playin'
Now all my hearts' sayin'
Baby, take me to your one way zone"

I said, "I've heard that before
You're just trying to score.
You gotta woo me if you want to go down my one way zone."

Thanks to Nidhi Suresh, Mythili Iyer and Sandesh Patil for helping out!!! :D

Storm

Everything looks alright on the surface
You can't tell whats going on behind close doors
Life's filled with risks and surprises
What you make of it, is only yours to show

Don't be afraid to face your fears
That's the only way to find who you really are
So push up your sleeves and wipe away the tears
You will really go faaaar

Standing on the pier
Everything looks clear
The seagulls are calling, It's time to fly back home
The water gently laps
Covering all the extra gaps
A street dog he covers, waiting for the storm

You may want to think through day and night
What's the point when all you're doing is losing your sleep
Whatever's gonna happen, happens right
What you sow, yeah, so shall you reeeeeep

Standing on the pier
Everything looks clear
The seagulls are calling, It's time to fly back home
The water gently laps
Covering all the extra gaps
A street dog he covers, waiting for the storm; to blow over

As the rain starts to pour
I close my eyes
Wash away the lies
Remove my disguise

And the trees start to sway
I stand my ground
With wind all around
Won't let it pull me down

Standing on the pier
Everything looks clear
The seagulls are calling, It's time to fly back home
The water gently laps
Covering all the extra gaps
A street dog he covers, waiting for the storm

Standing on the pier
Everything looks clear
The seagulls are calling, It's time to fly back home
The water gently laps
Covering all the extra gaps
A street dog he covers, waiting for the storm; to blow over
