artist: Pink Floyd
song: Another Brink In the Wall
done: true
lyrics: >
When we grew up and went to school
There were certain teachers who would
Hurt the children in any way they could
(oof!)
By pouring their derision
Upon anything we did
And exposing every weakness
However carefully hidden by the kids
But in the town it was well known
When they got home at night, their fat and
Psychopathic wives would thrash them
Within inches of their lives.

artist: Meredith Brooks
song: B*tch
done: false
lyrics: >
I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
Tried to tell you
But you look at me like maybe
I'm an angel underneath
Innocent and sweet
Yesterday I cried
Must have been relieved to see
The softer side
I can understand how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
All rolled into one
-
artist: Gipsy Kings
song: Bamboleo
done: true
lyrics: >
Este amor llega asi de esta manera
No tiene la culpa
Caballo de danza vana
Porque es muy despreciado, por eso
No te perdona de llorar
Este amor llega asi de esta manera
No tiene la culpa,
Amor de compra e venta
Amor de en el pasado
Bem, bem, bem...

artist: Michael Jackson
song: Billie Jean
done: true
lyrics: >
She was more like a beauty queen
From a movie scene

But what do you mean

Who will dance on the floor in the round
She said I am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round

song: Creep
done: true
lyrics: >
When you were here before

You're so fucking special

artist: Faith no More
song: Epic
done: true
lyrics: >
Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet

done: false
lyrics: >
Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while we sleep
We will find you
Acting on your best behaviour
Turn your back on mother nature

It's my own design
It's my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help me make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever

Pra desculpar minhas mentiras
Minhas mancadas

artist: Billy Idol
song: Eyes Without a Face
done: false
lyrics: >
I'm all out of hope
One more bad break could bring a fall
When I'm far from home
Don't call me on the phone

It's easy to deceive
It's easy to tease
But hard to get release
-
artist: Kiss
song: Forever
done: false
lyrics: >
I gotta tell you what I'm feeling inside
I could lie to myself, but it's true
There's no denying when I look in your eyes
Girl, I'm outta my head over you
I lived so long believing all love is blind
But everything about you
Is telling me this time it's

artist: the Cure
song: Friday I'm In Love
done: false
lyrics: >
Dressed up to the eyes
It's a wonderful surprise
To see your shoes and your spirits rise
Throwing out your frown
And just smiling at the sound
And as sleek as a shriek
Spinning round and round
Always take a big bite
It's such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff

lyrics: >
There's a loving in your eyes all the way.
If I listened to your lies would you say
I'm a man (a man) without conviction,
I'm a man (a man) who doesn't know
How to sell (to sell) a contradiction.
You come and go, you come and go.

If you say run, I'll run with you

song: Listen To Your Heart

Your little piece of heaven turns too dark

I live on the second floor

song: Maniac
done: true
lyrics: >
Just a steel town girl on a saturday night
Looking for the fight of her life
In the real-time world no one sees her at all
They all say she's crazy
Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart
Changing woman into life
She has danced into the danger zone
When a dancer becomes a dance

done: true
lyrics: >
It's early morning the Sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring and scratches my skin
So what is wrong with another sin?
The bitch is hungry she needs to tell
So give her inches and feed her well
More days to come new places to go
I've got to leave it's time for a show
-
artist: tears for fears

artist: michael jackson
song: thriller
done: false
lyrics: >
It's close to midnight
Something evil's lurkin' in the dark
Under the moonlight

But terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze
As horror looks you right between the eyes
You're paralyzed

artist: p!nk
song: try
done: false
lyrics: >
Ever wonder ‘bout what he’s doing?
How it all turned to lies?
Sometimes I think that it’s better to never ask why
Where there is desire there is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame someone’s bound to get burned
But just because it burns doesn’t mean you’re gonna die
-
artist: twisted sister
song: we're not gonna take it
done: true
lyrics: >
We've got the right to choose

Don't pick our destiny 'cause
You don't know us, you don't belong

lyrics: >
Know me broken by my master

Try to see it once my way
Drifting body it's sole desertion
Flying not yet quite the notion

song: super freak
done: false
lyrics: >
She's a very kinky girl
The kind you don't take home to mother
She will never let your spirits down
Once you get her off the street, ow girl
She likes the boys in the band
She says that I'm her all-time favorite
When I make my move to her room it's the right time
She's never hard to please, oh no

artist: cheap trick
song: surrender
done: false
lyrics: >
Mother told me, yes, she told me
That I'd meet girls like you

You'll never know what you'll catch"
Just the other day I heard
Of a soldier's falling off
Some Indonesian junk
That's going round

I wanna really really really wanna zig-a-zig, ah

song: ordinary world

lyrics: >
Came in from a rainy Thursday
On the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights, the TV
And the radio
Still I can't escape the ghost of you
What has happened to it all?
Crazy, some are saying
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away
But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the <song title>
I will learn to survive

song: right here right now

lyrics: >
A woman on the radio talks about revolution
When it's already passed her by
Bob Dylan didn't have this to sing about
You know it feels good to be alive
I was alive and I waited, waited
I was alive and I waited for this
Right here, right now
There is no other place I want to be
Right here, right now
Watching the world wake up from history
I saw the decade in, when it seemed the world could change
At the blink of an eye
And if anything
Then there's your sign of the times

And how I wish - I wish it weren't so
So take this wine and drink with me
And let's delay our misery

done: false
lyrics: >
How can it be permissible?
She compromise my principle, yeah, yeah
That kind of love is mythical

You're obliged to conform when there's no other course
She used to look good to me, but now I find her

We all came out to Montereax,
On the Lake Geneva shoreline.
To make records with a mobile,
We didn't have much time.

Were at the best place around,
But some stupid with a flare gun,
Burned the place to the ground.

And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
And we can dance

Rewritten by machine and new technology,
and now I understand the problems you can see.
Oh-a oh

There comes a time when we heed a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
And its time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all

That someone, somehow will soon make a change
We are all a part of Gods great big family
And the truth, you know,
Love is all we need

Twenty-five years I'm alive here still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed Just to get it all out
What's in my head
And I, I am feeling a little peculiar.

Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken?
But you see, it's not me, it's not my family
In your head, in your head they are fighting
With their tanks and their bombs
And their bones and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are crying...
