Behind Blue Eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool

When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat

If I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man



 

Behind blue eyes.

Mood Indigo

You ain't never been blue, no, no, no
You ain't never been blue
Till you've had that mood indigo






That feeling goes stealing right down to my shoes
While I just sit here and sigh
Go along blues






I always get that mood indigo
Since my baby said goodbye
And in the evening when the lights are low
I'm so lonely I could cry





For there's nobody who cares about me
I'm just a poor fool that's bluer than blue can be
When I get that mood indigo
I could lay me down and die






You ain't been blue, no, no, no
You ain't never been blue
Till you've had that mood indigo
That feeling goes stealing right down to my shoes
While I just sit here and sigh





Go along blues

Nina Simone

How long have you known?

How long have you known?

How long have you known?

Forever?

Forever?

Forever, if ever?

How long have you known?

How long has it shown?

Forever?

Forever?

Forever, if ever, at all?

Turn Blue

In the dead of the night I start to lose control

But I still carry the weight like I've always done before

It gets so heavy at times but what more can I do

I got to stay on track just like paps told me to

I really don't think you know

There could be hell below, below

I really do hope you know

there could be hell below, below

When the music is done and all the lights are low

I will remember the times when love would really glow

I could dream ahead before my world turned blue

And the light inside would only shine for you

I really don't think you know

There could be hell below, below

I really do hope you know

there could be hell below, below

I really don't think you know

There could be hell below, below

I really do hope you know

There could be hell below, below

Hair and Skin

Your hair and your eyes
I saw them in the night
Your face, your disguise
I felt it in the night






Your cool clammy skin
It could be right beside me
I saw you swimmin' over here
You looked so fragile





And don't you know her eyes were red?





Your hair and your skin
I know my desire
I felt akin
To my desire






Your eyes and your face
I dreamed them in the night
Your hair and your skin
I saw them swimmin' over here





And don't you know you're life itself?

If I didn't care

If I didn't care
More than words can say
If I didn't care
Would I feel this way?






If this isn't love, then why do I thrill?
And what makes my head
Go 'round and 'round
While my heart stands still?





If I didn't care
Would it be the same?
Would my every prayer
Begin and end with just your name?




 

And would I be sure that this is love
Beyond compare?
Would all this be true
If I didn't care for you?






"If I didn't care, honey child
More than words can say
If I didn't care, baby
Would I feel this way?
Darlin', if this isn't love



 

Then why do I thrill so much?
What is it that makes my head
Go 'round and 'round
While my heart just stands still so much?"






If I didn't care
Would it be the same?
Would my every prayer
Begin and end with just your name?

And would I be sure that this
Is love beyond compare?
Would all this be true
If I didn't care for you?

about King Elephant 

 

Keep What Ya Got

Yesterday came suddenly
Tomorrow will receive
Today now you're at the wheel
I'll ask how does it feel

Yesterday when Heaven's gates
I contemplate, they seem so far
Today they ain't so far away
And almost seem a drag

Keep what ya got, by givin' it all away
Keep what ya got, by givin' it all away

Keep what ya got, hold it, don't stop
Keep what ya got, by givin' it all away

When your halo slips for good
You'll have to wear your hood
Good to feel the breeze of fear

On all the cynics, I'm your mimick
All you losers, all abusers
Wasting all my precious energy

Keep what ya got, by givin' it all away
Keep what ya got, by givin' it all away

Keep what ya got, hold it, don't stop
Keep what ya got, by givin' it all away

Remember where you came from
Sisters who told ya on a rainy day
They said that Heaven holds a place






For all of those who prey
And if you don't believe in agony
Then you don't care anyway
Nobody or nothings ever gettin' in your way

Even as you played along
But don't feel you belong
No one's gonna notice if you never right or wrong

And if you and your next neighbor
Yeah, you don't quite get along
No one's gonna notice if you're singing anyway
Those not coming in for free will learn they gotta pay
