FREE STAR: Ok, I'm taking anarchy1999 up on his (her?) offer!

The matching grant for people from TEXAS! (Edit: You don't have to be from Texas to claim the star, only that anarchy1999 will double the pledge!)

So the first person to post me some Old 97's lyrics (that fine Texas band!) gets a star.

Go!

(Um... psst... you can google lyrics, ya know)

Edited to add: I'm heading home... so I may not respond right away... but the offer still stands! :D

1. Designs on you

Great song. I have a star so you'll have to find somebody else.


DESIGNS ON YOU.

Standing on the corner of 6th and How To Forget
Trying to do right by you all night Annette
You can go ahead and get married
and this will be our secret thing
I won't tell a soul except the people in the nightclub where I sing

I don't want to get you all worked up
Except secretly I do

I'd be lying if I said I didn't have designs on you
I'd be lying if I said I didn't have designs on you

Standing on the corner of 6th and Where do I go
The parade's shut down now the rain is running the show
Where did all these people come from
And how soon can they leave
Normally I'd be into it but I need to get some sleep

Though I do wish you1d come over
But I'm warning you if you do

I'd be lying if I said I didn't have designs on you
I'd be lying if I said I didn't have designs on you

(guitar break)

Standing on the corner of 6th and Where do I get
Trying to do right by you all night Annette
This would only be an experiment
In things that could have been
You can go ahead and get married
And it'll probably never happen again

I don't mean to make you excited
Except secretly I do

I'd be lying if I said I didn't have designs on you
I'd be lying if I said I didn't have designs on you
I'd be lying if I said I didn't have designs on you
I'd be lying if I said I didn't have designs on you

2. Oh, man, I love that one!
Have you ever seen them live, when Rhett does his little guitar thing? So. Much. Fun.

3. No I've never seen them. I would love to hear the guitar part of
That song expounded on for sure.

4. Lonely Holiday lyrics
I love this song.

It was a lonely holiday
I was alone -- you were away
In fayetteville or in another state
There's so many towns i hate

When you leave me, it breaks me like a bone
But it's never as bad as when you come home
Thought so much about suicide
Parts of me have already died

Lonely -- baby i'm not lonely
Baby i'm not -- i've got my imaginary friends
Happy -- baby i'm so happy

Baby i'm so -- i've got my imaginary friends
And if you don't love me, would you please pretend?

It was a lonely holiday
I was alone -- i was afraid
The bedroom walls were closing in
It must be closing time again

When you leave me, it breaks me like the note
That you said got stuck in your throat
Thought so much about suicide
Parts of me have already died

5. I also like this song, crispini:
King of All the World it's called.

I think it's off the Sattelite rides album.

i was in a real bad way
When you turned the power on
And you made me feel for all the world
Like i was the king of all the world

I was on a window ledge
When you came upon me there
Everything was upside for the moment
Right around the time i had to get going

Can't count me out
Cause i've got your number
You make me feel like i'm
The king of all of the world
King of all of the world
The king of all of the world

Now i'm on my way up north
All its gonna do is rain
And i'm gonna want to go back to the world
Where i was the king of all of the world



Artist: Old 97's
Album: Satellite Rides
Title: King Of All The World

i was in a real bad way
When you turned the power on
And you made me feel for all the world
Like i was the king of all the world

I was on a window ledge
When you came upon me there
Everything was upside for the moment
Right around the time i had to get going

Can't count me out
Cause i've got your number
You make me feel like i'm
The king of all of the world
King of all of the world
The king of all of the world

Now i'm on my way up north
All its gonna do is rain
And i'm gonna want to go back to the world
Where i was the king of all of the world

Can't count me out
Cause i've got your number
You make me feel like i'm
The king of all of the world
King of all of the world
The king of all of the world

I was in a real bad way
When you turned the power on
And you made me feel so right at home
I wonder if i'm ever gonna get back home

Can't count me out
Cause i've got your number
You make me feel like i'm
The king of all of the world
King of all of the world
The king of all of the world

If i wander out
Of a picture window


Peace. :hi:
