...the bar is called heaven

Heaven by Talking Heads

Everyone is trying to get to the bar.

The name of the bar, the bar is called heaven.
The band in heaven plays my favorite song.
They play it once again, they play it all night long.

Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens.

There is a party, everyone is there.
Everyone will leave at exactly the same time.
It's hard to imagine that nothing at all
Could be so exciting, and so much fun.

Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens.

When this kiss is over it will start again.
It will not be any different, it will be exactly the same.
It's hard to imagine that nothing at all
Could be so exciting, could be so much fun.

Heaven is a place where nothing every happens.

Do the Evolution by Pearl Jam

I'm ahead, I'm a man

I'm the first mammal to wear pants,
I'm at peace with my lust
I can kill cause in God I trust,
It's evolution, baby

I'm at piece, I'm the man
Buying stocks on the day of the crash
On the loose, I'm a truck
All the rolling hills, I'll flatten 'em out,
It's herd behavior
It's evolution, baby

Admire me, admire my home
Admire my song, here's my coat
This land is mine, this land is free
I'll do what I want but irresponsibly
It's evolution, baby

I'm a thief, I'm a liar
There's my church, I sing in the choir:
(hallelujah hallelujah)

Admire me, admire my home
Admire my song, admire my clothes
'cause we know, appetite for a nightly feast
Those ignorant indians got nothin' on me
Nothin', why?
Because, it's evolution, baby!

I am ahead, I am advanced
I am the first mammal to make plans
I crawled the earth, but now I'm higher
Twenty-ten, watch it go to fire
It's evolution, baby (2x)
Do the evolution

Come on, come on, come on

...tell me that you're burning for me

Bull in the Heather by Sonic Youth

10, 20, 30, 40

tell me that you wanna hold me
tell me that you wanna bore me
tell me that you gotta show me
tell me that you need to slowly
tell me that you're burning for me
tell me that you can't afford me
time to tell your dirty story
time for turning over and over
time for turning four leaf clover

betting on the bull in the heather

10, 20, 30, 40
tell me that you wanna scold me
tell me that you a-dore me
tell me that you're famous for me
tell me that you're gonna score me
tell me that you gotta show me
tell me that you need to sorely
time to tell your love story
time for turning over and over
time for turning four leaf clover
betting on the bull in the heather

Black Mirror knows no reflection, knows not pride or vanity...

Black Mirror by The Arcade Fire

I will walk down to the ocean
After waking from the nightmare
No moon, no pale reflection
Black Mirror

Shot by a security camera
You can watch your own image
And also look yourself in the eye
Black Mirror

I know when the time is coming
All the words will lose their meaning
Please show me something that isn’t mine
But mind is the only kind that I relate to
I never guessed how the mirror could ever break you
Black Mirror

Black Mirror knows no reflection,
knows not pride or vanity
Cares not about your dreams,
cares not for your pyramid schemes
Their names are never spoken
The curse is never broken,
the curse is never broken
Un, deux, trois, du miroir noir
[one, two, three, from the mirror]
Black Mirror

Black Mirror,
Their names are never spoken,
The curse is never broken,
Mirror mirror on the wall,
show me where them bombs will fall

Little Boxes by Melvina Reynolds

Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes made of ticky-tacky,
Little boxes, little boxes,
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 go to the university,
And they all get put in boxes,
Little boxes, all the same.
And there's doctors and there's 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 Martini 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,
And they all get put in boxes
And they all come out the same.

And the boys go into business,
And marry, and raise a family,
And they all get put in boxes,
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.

I'm quite happy, I'm quite happy....

Burning Flies by Looper

I'm quite happy burning flies.

They went to fly a kite,
They took a case of beer,
They asked if I would come,
But I'll be alright here.
I'm quite happy burning flies.
I don't need fancy things,
I don't watch much TV,
And while they fly the kite
Don't feel bad for me.
I'm quite happy burning flies.
Karla Valdarama on the beach at Balmaha w

Burning flies.
I'm quite happy, I'm quite happy.
I'm quite happy burning flies.

...once you were in my rearviewmirror

RVM by Pearl Jam

I took a drive today.
Time to emancipate.

I guess it was the beatings, made me wise.
But I'm not about to give thanks or apologize.

I couldn't breathe.
Holding me down.
Hand on my face.
Pushed to the ground.
Enmity gauged.
United by fear.
Forced to endure what I could not forgive.

I seem to look away.
The wounds in the mirror waved.
It wasn't my surface.
Most defiled.

Head at your feet.
Fool to your crown.
Fist on my plate.
wallowed it down.
Enmity gauged.
United by fear.
Tried to endure what I could not forgive.

Oh, once you were in my Rearviewmirror.
I gathered speed from you fucking with me.
Once and for all I'm far away.
Hard to believe.
Finally the shades are raised.
Saw things so much clearer once you, once you...
Rearviewmirror.

...You are one in a million

Flowers in the Window by Travis

When I first held you I was cold

A melting snowman I was told
But there was no-one there to hold
Before I swore that I would be alone forever more

Wow, look at you now
Flowers in the window
It's such a lovely day
And I'm glad you feel the same
'cause to stand up out in the crowd
You are one in a million
And I love you so, let's watch the flowers grow

There is no reason to feel bad
But there are many seasons to feel glad, sad, mad
It's just a bunch of feelings that we have to hold
But I am here to help you with the load

So now were here and now is fine
So far away from there
And there is time, time, time
To plant new seeds and watch them grow
So there'll be flowers in the window when we go

Another sunny day, I met you up in the garden...

Another Sunny Day by Belle & Sebastian

Another sunny day, I met you up in the garden

You were digging plants, I dug you, beg your pardon
I took a photograph of you in the herbaceous border
It broke the heart of men and flowers and girls and trees

Another rainy day, we're trapped inside with a train set
Chocolate on the boil, steamy windows when we met
You've got the attic window looking out on the cathedral
And on a Sunday evening bells ring out in the dusk

Another day in June, we'll pick eleven for football
We're playing for our lives the referee gives us fuck all
I saw you in the corner of my eye on the sidelines
Your dark mascara bids me to historical deeds

Everybody's gone you picked me up for a long drive
We take the tourist route the nights are light until midnight
We took the evening ferry over to the peninsula
We found the avenue of trees went up to the hill
That crazy avenue of trees, I'm living there still

There's something in my eye a little midge so beguiling
Sacrificed his life to bring us both eye to eye
I heard the Eskimos remove obstructions with tongues, dear
You missed my eye, I wonder why, I didn't complain
You missed my eye, I wonder why, please do it again

The lovin is a mess what happened to all of the feeling?
I thought it was for real; babies, rings and fools kneeling
And words of pledging trust and lifetimes stretching forever
So what went wrong? It was a lie, it crumbled apart

What does this city have to offer me?

Let's Get out of this Country by Camera Obscura

Let’s get out of this country

I’ll admit I am bored with me
I drowned my sorrows and slept around
When not in body at least in mind
We’ll find a cathedral city
You can convince me I am pretty

We’ll pick berries and recline
Let’s hit the road dear friend of mine
Wave goodbye to our thankless jobs
We’ll drive for miles maybe never turn off
We’ll find a cathedral city
You can be handsome, I’ll be pretty

What does this city have to offer me
Everyone else thinks it’s the bee’s knees
What does this city have to offer me?
I just can’t see

Let’s get out of this country
I have been so unhappy
Smell the Jasmine my head was turned
I feel like getting confessional
We’ll find a cathedral city
You can convince me I am pretty

Has the light gone out for you?

Bodysnatchers by Radiohead

I do not
Understand
What it is
I've done wrong
Full of holes
Check for pulse
Blink your eyes
One for yes
Two for no

I have no idea what I am talking about
I am trapped in this body and can't get out

You killed the sound
removed backbone
A pale imitation
With the edges
Sawn off

I have no idea what you are talking about
Your mouth moves only with someone's hand up your ass

Has the light gone out for you?
Because the light's gone for me
It is the 21st century
It can follow you like a dog
It brought me to my knees
They got a skin and they put me in
All the lines wrapped around my face
And for anyone else to see

I'm a lie
I've seen it coming

I'm the void, you can fall into me now...

Void by The Mary Onettes

...share with me a common disaster

A Common Disaster by Cowboy Junkies

A candle burning for everything I've ever wanted
A tattoo burned for everything I've ever wanted and lost
I had a long list of names that I kept in my back pocket,
but I've cut it down to one and your name's at the top

Won't you share a common disaster?
Share with me a common disaster
A common disaster

I found myself a friend,
but he's crooked as a stick in water
So now I'm writing fairy tales
to catch the spirit of revenge
He's got a plan to steal my little sister,
but I'm not too concerned
'cause I will get him in the end

Going to find me someone to share
A common disaster
Run away with me from a life so cramped and dull
Not worry too much about the happily-ever-after
Just keep the Caddy moving
'til we're well beyond that hill

I could follow love lest I learn...

Bring the Light by The Smashing Pumpkins

Shot down I stood
Withstood my neighborhood
I got it wrong
But I could
Follow love lest I learn

It’s light
To bring the light
I fought with all my might
With light
Oh bring the light

Light
Bring the light
I never felt so good and right
But tonight
You’ll never need another sound
Oh bring the light
Bring the light to me

Here and gone oh I trust
You’d spit upon my dust
And mix my ash with your blood
A son of God you know you must arrive
In the light
Bring the light
Let’s bring the light

Light
Oh bring the light

Light
Bring the light
It’s yours not mine
If you just want to survive
Go grab a glimpse of any star
In heaven’s high
I never felt so real and loved and alive
No shadows follow me unsung
In the light
Bring the light to me

A flower song, clear and bright
Is it wrong in neon white
To insist you are mine
Standing dumb in the light

Bring the light
Oh bring the light
Bring the light

Light
Bring the light
I never felt so real and right and alive
Don’t let them steal you from what’s yours by right
Light
Bring the light
You know there comes a place and time
You can’t deny
With every movement shadows cast and align

Bring the light
Let’s bring the light
Light

A lover for your life an' nothing more...

It Ain't Me, Babe by (Maese) Bob Dylan
(para tí, cuando regresas)

Go 'way from my window,
Leave at your own chosen speed.
I'm not the one you want, babe,
I'm not the one you need.
You say you're lookin' for someone
Never weak but always strong,
To protect you an' defend you
Whether you are right or wrong,
Someone to open each and every door,
But it ain't me, babe,
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe,
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe.

Go lightly from the ledge, babe,
Go lightly on the ground.
I'm not the one you want, babe,
I will only let you down.
You say you're lookin' for someone
Who will promise never to part,
Someone to close his eyes for you,
Someone to close his heart,
Someone who will die for you an' more,
But it ain't me, babe,
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe,
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe.

Go melt back into the night, babe,
Everything inside is made of stone.
There's nothing in here moving
An' anyway I'm not alone.
You say you're looking for someone
Who'll pick you up each time you fall,
To gather flowers constantly
An' to come each time you call,
A lover for your life an' nothing more,
But it ain't me, babe,
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe,
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe.

You came on your own and that's how you'll leave...

An End Has a Start by The Editors

I don't think that it's

Gonna rain again today,
There's a devil at your side,
But an angel on the way

Someone hit the light,
Cause there's more here to be seen,
When you caught my eye,
I saw everywhere I'd been
And what I go to...

You came on your own,
And that's how you'll leave,
With hope in your hands,
And air to breathe

I won't disappoint you,
As you fall apart,
Some things should be simple,
Even an end has a start

You came on your own,
And that's how you'll leave,
With hope in your hands,
And air to breathe,
You'll lose everything,
But in the end,
Still my broken limbs,
Will find time to mend

More and more people I
Know are getting ill
(Put something good on the,
Ashes now be still)

'Cause in her dreams she's seen it all...

Lightning Blue Eyes by The Secret Machines

Under the weight of persuasion

When you change your mind
I left the ground you just gave in
It was the only time

I felt awake I was way out
Under the closing night
Just as the morning became us
and we were only skies

What changed?
It's in my love

In your dreams you've seen it all
Through a window so far off
Remember watching while your
Lightning blue eyes reflected sunrise

Through the dawn I'd seen it, too
I caught a glimpse I thought was you
And I was overwhelmed
Lightning blue eyes against the daylight

I felt awake I was way out
It was the only time
To do away with persuasion
Oh when you change your mind

'Cause in her dreams she's seen it all
Through a window so far off
Remember watching while her
Lightning blue eyes reflected sunrise

Through the dawn I'd seen it, too
I caught a glimpse I thought was her
And I was overwhelmed
Lightning blue eyes against the daylight

I'm lost in a forest, all alone...

A Forest by The Cure

Come closer and see

See into the trees
Find the girl
While you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes

I hear her voice
Calling my name
The sound is deep
In the dark
I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees

Suddenly I stop
But I know it's too late
I'm lost in a forest
All alone
The girl was never there
It's always the same
I'm running towards nothing
Again and again and again

You’re feeling a little sad tonight but you’ll be alright...

Before You Cry by Camera Oscura

No sense no style

I said I loved you for a little while
When you cried no
High speed became go slow
Come back this time
Wishful thinking is going to make you mine
Push turns to shove
I got no more room for love

I hope you hear me
I can’t stand you next to me
Get lost goodbye
I’ll smile before you cry
I love you baby
Please don’t hate me
You’re feeling a little sad tonight
but you’ll be alright...

We were destined to live out our lives underwater...

Underwater by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!

Some songs see us sailing away

Navigating foreign borders
And climbing the waves
Someday your secret will be revealed
Am I the one you're thinking of
When the sun goes down into the water?

We're struck by the still of the moon
Hanging up there in the sky as though a balloon
Anchored by an astronaut's patriot tune
We will buy a ship and fly
To the land that would be rediscovered

We'll design a clever disguise
Or retreat to the bottom of the sea
We were destined to live out our lives
Underwater you and me

We'll escape beneath a violet sky
Clouds come
And night falls
You seem different
Oh my my!

Upon an endless trail of moonlight
They'll never realize that we have gone
We have dropped right out of
Out of sight

We'll design a clever disguise
Or retreat to the bottom of the se
We were destined to live out our lives
Underwater you and me

...we're howling forever

Wolf like Me by TV on the Radio

Say say my playmate

won't you lay hands on me
mirror my lady
transfer my tragedy

Got a curse I cannot lift
shines when the sunset shifts
when the moon is round and full
gotta bust that box gotta gut that fish

My mind's aflame

We could jet in a stolen car
but I bet we wouldn't get too far
before the transformation takes
and bloodlust tanks and
crave gets slaked

My mind has changed
my body's frame but god I like it
my hearts aflame
my body's strained but god I like it

Charge me your day rate
I'll turn you out in kind
when the moon is round and full
gonna teach you tricks that'll blow your mind
mongrel mind
baby doll I recognize
you're a hideous thing inside
if ever there were a lucky kind it's
you you you you

I know it's strange another way to get to know you
you'll never know unless we go so let me show you
Iknow it's strange another way to get to know you
we've got till noon here comes the moon
so let it show you
show you now

Dream me oh dreamer
down to the floor
open my hands and let them
weave onto yours

Feel me, completer
down to my core
open my heart and let it
bleed onto yours

Feeding on fever
down all fours
show you what all that
howl is for

Hey hey my playmate
let me lay waste to thee
burned down their hanging trees
it's hot here hot here hot here hot here

Got a curse we cannot lift
shines when the sunshine shifts
there's a curse comes with a kiss
the bite that binds the gift that gives

now that we got gone for good
writhing under your riding hood
tell your gra'ma and your mama too
it's true
we're howling forever

Once in a green time a flower fell in love with the sun...

Flower in the Sun by Janis Joplin

Oh please don't you think baby that I am wrong to cry, yeah.
You loved me, too,
So how come you just sit there and laugh
And laugh and laugh and laugh?
Things just can't be this way
And not for very long
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no.
Our love affair said it's just history, yes it is.

And I tried to love you in my own way,
I think that you know I did.
But to have you here, to see you living,
Oh so near to me, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh but you are distant and so it's dead
And so often people are glad to be old, yeah yeah,
Our love affair is just history, yes it is.

Once in a green time a flower
Oh, fell in love with the sun.
The passion lasted for an hour
And then she wilted from her loved one.

And I see you looking up at the sky, how high it is, yeah.
You wonder if there is, whoa another me
Now how can that be, how can it be ?
Well, I sit here and I ask you, why all this ?
I just got toni-ni-ni-night
Our love affair said it's just a history
But baby, baby, I said it's over, Charlie,
I can't stand another lo-lo-lonely,
I'm never too lonely.

It's over baby,
Where were you when I wanted ya
And needed ya right by my side ?
I said-a, baby, baby, don't you feel me moving,
Baby, don't you hear me cry ?
I know I hurt you, but Lord don't you know I cried,
I know I hurt you, but babe don't you know I tried,
Oh baby, oh babe, whoa.

How am I gonna keep myself away from me?

Perfect Blue Buildings by Counting Crows

Just down the street from your hotel, baby

I stay at home with my disease
And ain't this position familiar, darling
Well, all monkeys do what they see
Help me stay awake, I'm falling...

Down on Virginia and La Loma
Where I got friends who care for me
You got an attitude of everything I ever wanted
I got an attitude of need
Help me stay awake, I'm falling...

Asleep in perfect blue buildings
Beside the green apple sea
Gonna get me a little oblivion, baby
Try to keep myself away from me

It's 4:30 a.m. on a Tuesday
It doesn't get much worse than this
In beds in little rooms in buildings
in the middle of these lives
which are completely meaningless
Help me stay awake, I'm falling...

I got bones beneath my skin, and mister...
There's a skeleton in every man's house
Beneath the dust and love and sweat that hangs on everybody
There's a dead man trying to get out
Please help me stay awake, I'm falling...

'I cant keep myself away from me
How am I gonna keep myself away from me?

They paved paradise...

Big Yellow Taxi by Joni Mitchell

They paved paradise

And put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique
And a swinging hot spot

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

They took all the trees
Put 'em in a tree museum
And they charged the people
A dollar and a half just to see 'em

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

Hey farmer farmer
Put away that DDT now
Give me spots on my apples
But leave me the birds and the bees
Please!

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

Late last night
I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi
Took away my old man

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

If the world's at large, why should I remain?

The World at Large by Modest Mouse

Ice-age heat wave, can't complain.

If the world's at large, why should I remain?
Walked away to another plan.
Gonna find another place, maybe one I can stand.
I move on to another day,
to a whole new town with a whole new way.
Went to the porch to have a thought.
Got to the door and again, I couldn't stop.
You don't know where and you don't know when.
But you still got your words and you got your friends.
Walk along to another day.
Work a little harder, work another way.

Well uh-uh baby I ain't got no plan.
We'll float on maybe would you understand?

The days get shorter and the nights get cold.
I like the autumn but this place is getting old.
I pack up my belongings and I head for the coast.
It might not be a lot but I feel like I'm making the most.
The days get longer and the nights smell green.
I guess it's not surprising but it's spring and I should leave.

I like songs about drifters - books about the same.
They both seem to make me feel a little less insane.
Walked on off to another spot.
I still haven't gotten anywhere that I want.
Did I want love? Did I need to know?
Why does it always feel like I'm caught in an undertow?

The moths beat themselves to death against the lights.
Adding their breeze to the summer nights.
Outside, water like air was great.
I didn't know what I had that day.
Walk a little farther to another plan.
You said that you did, but you didn't understand.

I know that starting over is not what life's about.
But my thoughts were so loud I couldn't hear my mouth.

¿Qué no sientes el vértigo que estoy sintiendo yo?

Lento de Café Tacuba

Rápido, cada vez se va haciendo más veloz
¿qué no sientes el vértigo
que estoy sintiendo yo?
Antes los días eran largos,
no como hoy que se pasan volando.
Deberíamos ir lento
para ver caminar
esa oruga en la hoja
y verla por el tallo bajar
hacia la húmeda tierra
donde descansará.
Antes no podía ver moverse
nunca al sol
hoy parece un cometa
que cruzara veloz.
Corre, corre siempre adelante más veloz
sin saber nunca a dónde.
Debería ir más lento
para conocer más
la pupila y el iris
y lo profundo de tu mirar
y después concentrarme
en todo lo demás.
Lento (rápido) lento
rápido cada vez se va haciendo más veloz
¿Qué no sientes el vértigo
que estoy sintiendo...?
Rápido podríamos ir mas rápido, por favor,
que esto es como una droga.
Deberíamos ir lejos
para ver la función
del sol y los planetas
bailando todos al rededor
de la orquesta de estrellas cantando su canción.

Today is the greatest...

Today by The Smashing Pumpkins

Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't live for tomorrow
Tomorrow's much too long
I burn my eyes out
Before I get out

I wanted more
Than life could ever granted me
Bored by the chore
Of saving face

Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't wait for tomorrow
I might not have that long
I'll tear my heart out
Before I get out

Pink ribbon scars
That never forget
I've tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings

Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known

I want to turn you on
I want to turn you round
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you
