Kinks
<b>Misfits</b>
You've been sleeping in a field but you look real rested
You set out to outrage but you can't get arrested
You say your image is new, but it looks well tested
You're lost without a crowd yet you go your own way
You say your summer has gone
Now the winter is crawlin' in
They say that even in your day
Somehow you never could quite fit in
Though it's cold outside
I know the summer's gonna come again
Because you know what they say
Every dog has his day
You're a misfit, afraid of yourself, so you run away and hide
You've been a misfit all your life
Why don't you join the crowd
And come inside
You wander round this town like you've lost your way
You had your chance in your day
Yet you threw it all away
But you know what they say
Every dog has his day
Look at all the losers and the mad eyed gazers
Look at all the looneys and the sad eyed failures
They're giving up living 'cos they just don't care
So take a good look around
The misfits are everywhere
La la la la la la
You're a misfit
Afraid of yourself so you run away and hide
You've been a misfit all your life
But why don't you join the crowd and come inside
You wander round this town
Like you've lost your way
You had your chance in your day
Yet you threw it all away
Now you're lost in the crowd
Yet, still go your own way
This is your chance, this is your time
So don't throw it away
You can have your day
Yes it's true what they say
Every dog has his day

Tears For Fears
<b>The Way You Are</b>
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
These fingers aren't my fingers
These hands are not my hands
No one sees and no one cares
What gets broken
Not for rhyme and not for reason
What gets broken
What gets broken
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
In the river my machinery
Slows to a heartbeat
Echoing ghost just laid by
Those who whistle while they work
Out of time and out of season
What gets broken
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are

"Two Steps Behind" - Madcap
One life to live is what we really get
and we think we live, but all of us are dying
A little more each day
It's six o'clock time to get up
and get ready for work 'cause we can't be late
Or else we won't get paid
and everybody wants to make a little more
Than all the friends living next door
Security in exchange for emptiness
Is the price in the USA
Two steps behind of the American dream
Two steps behind and then some more
Two steps behind is where you'll find my boys and me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
and I wanna do is wake up
How much money will it take
How many hours a day
will keep you from the grave?
Mr. Gates, are you gonna freeze yourself
like Mr. Disney did?
To keep your dream alive
So you won't have to die
Well, everybody wants to live a little more
Than all the friends living next door
Security in exchange for emptiness
Is the price in the USA
Two steps behind of the American dream
Two steps behind and then some more
Two steps behind is where you'll find my boys and me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
and I wanna do is wake up
Wake up!
Wake up!
Wake up!
Two steps behind of the American dream
Two steps behind and then some more
Two steps behind is where you'll find my boys and me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
and I wanna do is wake up

"Heaven Or Hell" - Madcap
On a moonless night by a shadowless wall,
I sit and listen to my radio.
And I wonder tonight is it heaven or hell.
For weeks at a time I'm the good guy lifes taught me.
Then it all goes south and I realize that ain't me.
And the boys were shouting hey.
Because tonight we get away.
Heaven or hell is on the way, let's go!
Heart will overcome.
And tonight were on the run.
I've got you, maybe that's enough.
Sometimes I wonder, what's it all about.
So many times, I've paid that jukebox to explain it all,
I put my money down, hit the same track I've picked for years.
Kicking walls cause the explanations never clear.
I'll make that choice no mattter what it is.
10,000 miles starts with just one step.
And the boys were shouting hey.
Because tonight we get away.
Heaven or hell is on the way, let's go!
Heart will overcome.
And tonight were on the run.
I've got you, maybe that's enough.

"Better Day" - Madcap
Uncertainty follows me like a shade and it fogs my vision.
Like a blind man I'm in the dark. I walk with no driection.
I stumble, I fall, I trip on my own footsteps.
Intuition and hope are my eyes in the uncertainty of tomorrow.
It will be a better day.
Hope is a waking dream. I'm only half awake.
My room's a place to hide. It's not a place to sleep.
A better day awaits for me.
I know enough to know that I don't know much of anything
If I open my eyes I see things I don't want to see.
I stumble, I fall, I trip on my own footsteps.
Intuition and hope are my eyes in the uncertainty of tomorrow.
It will be a better day.
Hope is a waking dream. I'm only half awake.
My room's a place to hide. It's not a place to sleep.
A better day awaits for me.
If I open my eyes I see things that make me want t o fade away.
I stumble, I fall, I trip on my own footsteps.
I stumble, I fall, I trip on my own footsteps.
Hope is a waking dream. I'm only half awake.
My room's a place to hide. It's not a place to sleep.
A better day awaits for me.

Rancid - Journey To The End Of The East Bay
Reconciled to the belief consumed in sacred ground for me
There wasn't always a place to go
But there was always an urge, a need to belong
All these bands and all these people
All these friends and we were equals, but
Whatcha gonna do when everybody goes on without you
To the end, to the end, I'll journey to the end
To the end, to the end, I'll journey to the end
To the end, yeah
To the end, to the end, I'll journey to the end
started in '87, ended in '89
You got a gargage or an amp we'll play anytime
It was just the 4 of us that made the core of us
Too much attention unavoidably destroyed us
Four kids on tour 3,000 miles
In a four door car not knowing what was going on
Not if we got a billion years it would turn out like this
Hell no, no preminition could have saved us
To the end, to the end, I'll journey to the end
To the end, to the end, I'll journey to the end
To the end, yeah
To the end, to the end, I'll journey to the end
Matty came from far away
From New Orleans, then into the east bay
He said this is a mecca
I said this aint no mecca man, this place is fucked
Three months go by, he had no home
He had no food, he's all alone
Matty said fool me once, shame on you
He said fool me twice, he went back to New Orleans
To the end, to the end, I'll journey to the end
To the end, to the end, I'll journey to the end
To the end, yeah
To the end, to the end, I'll journey to the end

H2O - One Life, One Chance
what if i said , i was an accident waiting to happen
would i trip and fall, fall on my words
and would you say, say that i was wrong
my words were out of place, went where i didn't belong
this to me is fact and fiction plays a role
confusing situations that i can't control
the heart of matter, it beats with pride
sometime i wear it on my sleeve, sometimes i keep it inside
and no one said it was gonna be easy,
and i'm not afraid to try
and with the odds stacked up against me, i will have to fight
one life one chance, gotta do it right!
and i cant let fate dictate what's best for me
gotta take control of my own destiny, you can't relate
you think there's no escape, but i got everything at stake
here just to prove you wrong
and no one said it was gonna be easy,
and i'm not afraid to try
and with the odds stacked up against me, i will have to fight
one life one chance, gotta do it right!
one life one chance, gotta do it right!
one life one chance, gotta do it right!
one life one chance, gotta do it right!
gotta do it right!

"White Riot" - The Clash
White riot - I wanna riot
White riot - a riot of my own
White riot - I wanna riot
White riot - a riot of my own
Black people gotta lot a problems
But they don't mind throwing a brick
White people go to school
Where they teach you how to be thick
An' everybody's doing
Just what they're told to
An' nobody wants
To go to jail!
All the power's in the hands
Of people rich enough to buy it
While we walk the street
Too chicken to even try it
Everybody's doing
Just what they're told to
Nobody wants
To go to jail!
Are you taking over
or are you taking orders?
Are you going backwards
Or are you going forwards?

"The Magnificent Seven" - The Clash
Ring! Ring! It's 7:00 A.M.!
Move y'self to go again
Cold water in the face
Brings you back to this awful place
Knuckle merchants and you bankers, too
Must get up an' learn those rules
Weather man and the crazy chief
One says sun and one says sleet
A.M., the F.M. the P.M. too
Churning out that boogaloo
Gets you up and gets you out
But how long can you keep it up?
Gimme Honda, Gimme Sony
So cheap and real phony
Hong Kong dollars and Indian cents
English pounds and Eskimo pence
You lot! What?
Don't stop! Give it all you got!
You lot! What?
Don't stop! Yeah!
Working for a rise, better my station
Take my baby to sophistication
She's seen the ads, she thinks it's nice
Better work hard - I seen the price
Never mind that it's time for the bus
We got to work - an' you're one of us
Clocks go slow in a place of work
Minutes drag and the hours jerk
"When can I tell 'em wot I do?
In a second, maaan...oright Chuck!"
Wave bub-bub-bub-bye to the boss
It's our profit, it's his loss
But anyway lunch bells ring
Take one hour and do your thanng!
Cheeesboiger!
What do we have for entertainment?
Cops kickin' Gypsies on the pavement
Now the news - snap to attention!
The lunar landing of the dentist convention
Italian mobster shoots a lobster
Seafood restaurant gets out of hand
A car in the fridge
Or a fridge in the car?
Like cowboys do - in T.V. land
You lot! What? Don't stop. Huh?
So get back to work an' sweat some more
The sun will sink an' we'll get out the door
It's no good for man to work in cages
Hits the town, he drinks his wages
You're frettin', you're sweatin'
But did you notice you ain't gettin'?
Don't you ever stop long enough to start?
To take your car outta that gear
Don't you ever stop long enough to start?
To get your car outta that gear
Karlo Marx and Fredrich Engels
Came to the checkout at the 7-11
Marx was skint - but he had sense
Engels lent him the necessary pence
What have we got? Yeh-o, magnificence!!
Luther King and Mahatma Gandhi
Went to the park to check on the game
But they was murdered by the other team
Who went on to win 50-nil
You can be true, you can be false
You be given the same reward
Socrates and Milhous Nixon
Both went the same way - through the kitchen
Plato the Greek or Rin Tin Tin
Who's more famous to the billion millions?
News Flash: Vacuum Cleaner Sucks Up Budgie
Oooohh...bub-bye
Magnificence!!
FUCKING LONG, INNIT?

<center><b>I Want To Conquer The World </b>
<i>Bad Religion</i>
hey brother christian with your high and mighty errand
your actions speak so loud I can't hear a word you're saying
hey sister bleeding heart with all of your compassion
your labors soothe the hurt but can't assuage temptation
hey man of science with your perfect rules of measure
can you improve this place with the data that you gather
hey mother mercy can your loins bear fruit forever?
is your fecundity a trammel or a treasure?
I want to conquer the world
give all the idiots a brand new religion
put an end to poverty, uncleanliness and toil
promote equality in all of my decisions
with a quick wink of the eye and a "god you must be joking!"
hey mister diplomat with your worldly aspirations
did you see your children cry when you left them at the station?
hey moral soldier you've got righteous proclamation
and precious tomes to fuel your pulpy conflagrations
I want to conquer the world
expose the culprits and feed them to the children
I'll do away with air pollution
and then I'll save the whales
we'll have peace on earth
and global communion </center>
