Kangaroo Karaoke

Been listening to the latest compilation by NO, never get sick of listening to this band 8)
Feel like putting a little compilation together myself...

Blue Monday (New Order)

How does it feel to treat me like you do?
When you've laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are
I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me, how do I feel
Tell me now, How do I feel

Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They'll turn away no more
And I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But I'm quite sure that she'll tell me
Just how I should feel today

I see a ship in the harbor
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn't for your misfortunes
I'd be a heavenly person today
And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now, how shall I feel

Now I stand here waiting...

I thought I told you to leave me
While I walk down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel
When your heart grows cold

:)
 
Bizarre Love Triangle (New Order)

Every time I think of you
I feel a shot right through with a bolt of blue
It's no problem of mine
But it's a problem I find
Living a life that I can't leave behind

But there's no sense in telling me
The wisdom of the fool won't set you free
But that's the way that it goes
And it's what nobody knows
Well every day my confusion grows

Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can say

I feel fine and I feel good
I'm feeling like I never should
Whenever I get this way
I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday

I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself
That if I hurt someone else
Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be

Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can say

:)
 
True Faith (New Order)

I feel so extraordinary
Something's got a hold on me
I get this feeling I'm in motion
A sudden sense of liberty

I don't care 'cos I'm not there
And I don't care if I'm here tomorrow
Again and again I've taken too much
Of the thing that costs you too much

I used to think that the day would never come
I'd see the light in the shade of the morning sun
My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
To the childhood I lost replaced by fear
I used to think that the day would never come
That my life would depend on the morning sun

When I was a very small boy
Very small boys talked to me
Now that we've grown up together
They're afraid of what they see

That's the price that we all pay
Value destiny comes to nothing
I can't tell you where we're going
I guess there's just no way of knowing

I used to think that the day would never come
I'd see the light in the shade of the morning sun
My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
To the childhood I lost replaced by fear
I used to think that the day would never come
That my life would depend on the morning sun


I feel so extraordinary
Something's got a hold on me
I get this feeling I'm in motion
A sudden sense of liberty

The chances are we've gone too far
You took my time and you took my money
Now I feel you've left me standing
In a world that's so demanding

I used to think that the day would never come
I'd see the light in the shade of the morning sun
My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
To the childhood I lost replaced by fear
I used to think that the day would never come
That my life would depend on the morning sun

Hey nice going there cats!. :clap :clap You can never have too much New Order or Santana. ;D >:D

Can never have too much Cream either........

Ah 1,2,3...

In the white room with black curtains near the station.
Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.

I’ll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.

You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning.

I’ll wait in the queue when the trains come back;
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.

At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
She’s just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.

I’ll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.
 
I'm feeling a bit melancholy....to many departures

Should auld acquaintance be forgot
and never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
and days of auld lang syne?
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
 
I prefer to think that PRE have done a RFC, Get rid of the Old Champions and play the Kids

"People try to put us Down, juz becoz we get around,"
 
Another one of my all time faves...... >:D

Times Like These - Foo Fighters

Ah 1,2,3,4........

I am a one way motorway
I’m the one that drives away
Then follows you back home
I am a street light shining
I’m a wild light blinding bright
Burning off alone

It’s times like these you learn to live again
It’s times like these you give and give again
It’s times like these you learn to love again
It’s times like these time and time again

I am a new day rising
I’m a brand new sky
To hang the stars upon tonight
I am a little divided
Do I stay or run away
And leave it all behind?

It’s times like these you learn to live again
It’s times like these you give and give again
It’s times like these you learn to love again
It’s times like these time and time again

and for all of the vertically challenged posters, a Randy Newman classic...

:clap :clap :clap


Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
To live

hahaha, man my mate and I were having a laugh about this song last night (before you posted). You should watch Family Guy (if you haven't seen it already) where they do some great Randy Newman impersonations. Such a lazy dopey singing voice, i love it.

Louweeeeeesiana, or somfin like daat.
 
I'm so bored I can't think of any good songs to sing so here's some really bad ones...... :hihi

The Pina Cola song.

I was tired of my lady
We'd been together too long
Like a worn-out recording
Of a favorite song
So while she lay there sleeping
I read the paper in bed
And in the personal columns
There was this letter I read

"If you like Pina Coladas
And getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga
If you have half a brain
If you'd like making love at midnight
In the dunes on the Cape
Then I'm the love that you've looked for
Write to me and escape."

I didn't think about my lady
I know that sounds kind of mean
But me and my old lady
Have fallen into the same old dull routine
So I wrote to the paper
Took out a personal ad
And though I'm nobody's poet
I thought it wasn't half bad

"Yes I like Pina Coladas
And getting caught in the rain
I'm not much into health food
I am into champagne
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon
And cut through all this red-tape
At a bar called O'Malley's
Where we'll plan our escape."

So I waited with high hopes
And she walked in the place
I knew her smile in an instant
I knew the curve of her face
It was my own lovely lady
And she said, "Oh it's you."
Then we laughed for a moment
And I said, "I never knew."

That you like Pina Coladas
Getting caught in the rain
And the feel of the ocean
And the taste of champagne
If you'd like making love at midnight
In the dunes of the Cape
You're the lady I've looked for
Come with me and escape

repeat chorus twice and fade out
 
Afternoon Delight. :D

Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight
gonna grab some afternoon delight.
My motto's always been; when it's right, it's right.
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night.
When everything's a little clearer in the light of day.
And you know the night is always gonna be there any way.

Sky rockets in flight. Afternoon delight. Afternoon delight.

Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite
looking forward to a little afternoon delight.
Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite
and the thought of rubbin' you is getting so exciting.

Sky rockets in flight. Afternoon delight. Afternoon delight.

Started out this morning feeling so polite
I always though a fish could not be caught who wouldn't bite
But you've got some bait a waitin' and I think I might try nibbling
a little afternoon delight.

Sky rockets in flight. Afternoon delight. Afternoon delight.

Please be waiting for me baby when I come around.
We could make a lot of lovin' 'for the sun goes down.

Sky rockets in flight. Afternoon delight. Afternoon delight.

Repeat chorus.
 
Pinaculada and Afternoon Delight.

That was quite the gig back there, tigericho.

Therers nothing better than a Driving Song, this one has Raunchy Guitar, A serious Chant and a SNAG for a Lead Singer.

Ready, Assume the air Guitar Position and.............

Drive my truck midway to the motorway station
Fairlane cruiser coming up on the left hand side
Headlight shining, driving rain on the window frame
Little young Lady Stardust hitching a ride... and it's

2-4-6-8 ain't never too late
Me and my radio truckin' on thru the night
3-5-7-9 on a double white line
Motorway sun coming up with the morning light

Whizzkid sitting pretty on your two-wheel stallion
This ol' ten-ton lorry got a bead on you
Ain't no use setting up with a bad companion
Ain't nobody get the better of you-know-who

2-4-6-8 ain't never too late
Me and my radio truckin' on thru the night
3-5-7-9 on a double white line
Motorway sun coming up with the morning light

Heres the Quiet Bit, feel free to grope the nearest person, while I stand on stage with a mournful look


Well there ain't no route you could choose to lose the two of us
Ain't nobody know when you're acting right or wrong
No-one knows if a roadway's leading nowhere
Gonna keep on driving home on the road I'm on...

2-4-6-8 ain't never too late
Me and my radio truckin' on thru the night
3-5-7-9 on a double white line
Motorway sun coming up with the morning light
 
Seeing the Pina Colada song inspired me to post this one:

She wanted to test her husband,
She new exactly what to do,
A pseudonym to fool him,
She couldn't have made a worse move.
She sent him scented letters,
And he recieved them with a strange delight,
Just like his wife.
But how she was before the tears,
And how she was before the years flew by,
And how she was when she was beautiful.
She signed the letter:

Chorus
All yours, babooshka, babooshka, babooshka-ya-ya

She wanted to take it further,
So she arranged a place to go,
Too see if he,
Would fall for her incognito.
And when he laid eyes on her,
He got the feelings they had met before,
Uncanny how she
Reminds him of his little lady,
Capacity to give him all he needs,
Just like his wife before she freezed on him,
Just like his wife when she was beautiful,
He shouted, i'm...

Chorus
All yours, babooshka, babooshka, babooshka-ya-ya
 
More Kate Bush:

Out on the wiley, windy moors
we'd roll and fall in green.
you had a temper like my jealousy:
too hot, too greedy.
how could you leave me,
when I needed to possess you?
I hated you. I loved you, too.

Bad dreams in the night.
they told me I was going to lose the fight,
leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
wuthering heights.

Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
come home. I'm so cold!
let me in-a-your window.

Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
come home. I'm so cold!
let me in-a-your window.

Ooh, it gets dark! it gets lonely,
on the other side from you.
I pine a lot. I find the lot
falls through without you.
I'm coming back, love.
cruel Heathcliff, my one dream,
my only master.

Too long I roam in the night.
I'm coming back to his side, to put it right.
I'm coming home to wuthering, wuthering,
wuthering heights,

Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
come home. I'm so cold!
let me in-a-your window.

Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
come home. I'm so cold!
let me in-a-your window.

Ooh! let me have it.
let me grab your soul away.
ooh! let me have it.
let me grab your soul away.
you know it's me--Cathy!

Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
come home. I'm so cold!
let me in-a-your window.

Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
come home. I'm so cold!
let me in-a-your window.

Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
come home. I'm so cold!
