Tracy Chapman - Give Me One Reason



Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Said I don't want leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind

Baby I got your number and I know that you got mine
But you know that I called you, I called too many times
You can call me baby, you can call me anytime
But you got to call me

Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Said I don't want leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind

I don't want no one to squeeze me - they might take away my life
I don't want no one to squeeze me - they might take away my life
I just want someone to hold me and rock me through the night

This youthful heart can love you yes and give you what you need
I said this youthful heart can love you and give you what you need
But I'm too old to go chasing you around
Wasting my precious energy

Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Said, I don't want leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind

Baby just give me one reason - Give me just one reason why
Baby just give me one reason - Give me just one reason why I should stay
Said I told you that I loved you
And there ain't no more to say

Malvina Reynolds - Little Boxes



Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes made of ticky tacky,1
Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes all the same.
There's a green one and a pink one
And a blue one and a yellow one,
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.

And the people in the houses
All went to the university,
Where they were put in boxes
And they came out all the same,
And there's doctors and lawyers,
And business executives,
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.

And they all play on the golf course
And drink their martinis dry,
And they all have pretty children
And the children go to school,
And the children go to summer camp
And then to the university,
Where they are put in boxes
And they come out all the same.

And the boys go into business
And marry and raise a family
In boxes made of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.
There's a green one and a pink one
And a blue one and a yellow one,
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.

Pasarea Colibri - Toti suntem putin luati


Te iau când crezi ca esti si tu mai bun,
Te iau c-asa ar trebui, îti spun,
Te iau când vrei s-ajungi si tu acas',
Te iau când numai tu ti-ai mai ramas!

Refren:
Dar hai sa ne avem ca frati,
Toti sîntem putin luati!

Te iau când iesi si tu putin pe strazi,
Te iau când locu-ncerci sa ti-l pastrezi,
Te iau când pe pamânt calci în sfârsit,
Te iau când spre iesire mergi grabit!
http://www.free-lyrics.org

Refren

Te iau chiar de la ceai când te trezesti,
Te iau când tânar si capabil esti,
Te iau când banii, banii nu stii ce's,
Te iau si-apoi îti zic zâmbind: Succes!

Refren

Te iau si-apoi îti spun ca s-a sfârsit,
Te iau si-apoi apar din nou uimit,
Te iau când cu masina mergi hai-hui,
Te iau când pe ghitara mâna pui!

Refren

Te iau când numai tu ti-ai mai ramas,
Te iau si-atunci când mergi si tu acas',
Te iau si-apoi îti spun ca esti barbat,
Te iau când în mormânt te-ai asezat!

Refren
