Geek Stink Breath Lyrics

I'm on a mission
I made my decision
To lead a path of self destruction
A slow progression
Killing my complexion
And it's rotting out my teeth

I'm on a roll
No self control
I'm blowing off steam with methamphetamine
Don't know what I want
That's all that I've got
And I'm picking scabs off my face

Every hour my blood is turning sour
And my pulse is beating out of time
I found a treasure
filled with sick pleasure
And it sits on a thick white line

I'm on a roll
No self control
I'm blowing off steam with methamphetamine
Don't know what I want
That's all that I've got
And I'm picking scabs off my face

I'm on a mission
I've got no decision
Like a cripple running the rat race
Wish in one hand shit in the other
And see which one gets filled first

I'm on a roll
No self control
I'm blowing off steam with methamphetamine
Don't know what I want
That's all that I've got
And I'm picking scabs off my face

Geek Stink Breath Song Chart

This is about amphetamine and methamphetamine drug use. (thanks, Tom - New Hartford, CT)

This was the first single from Insomniac, which was Green Day's fourth album. Their first 2 were released on a small label and didn't sell well, but their third, Dookie, was one of the best-selling albums of 1993. This put high expectations on this album, which also sold well, but not as well as Dookie.

Like most Green Day songs, this was not sold as a single in the US, which helped sell more copies of the album. It earned the chart position because of radio play.

This song made it's debut months before the release of Insomniac. While still on the Dookie tour, the band made an appearance on Saturday Night Live. In addition to performing their current single "When I Come Around," they were told to perform either of their previous singles "Longview" or "Basket Case" for their second number. As a bit of rebellion against their management and the media, the band played a very crude version of this as their second song. It became Insomniac's first single when the album was released many months later. (thanks, George - Islip Terrace, NY)

PrizeFighter Lyrics

Here you are face to face, with you greatest test of faith
It lookin’ good but you wouldn’t run even if you could
'Cause you know whats on the line, it’s win or lose, do or die
Every swing’s coming fast and the punches knock you back

When you hit the ground, you find your wings
You go one more round when that bell rings
They say you’re done, but here you come
You’re a hammer hittin’, spittin’ fire, PrizeFighter
When you’re sweating from the fear, you look it the eye
Turn the sound of defeat into your battle cry
Stakes are down, you’re outta luck
Look at you, smiling with a shiner, standing higher
Prizefighter

When you see ‘em shake their heads, that’s when you start seein’ red
From your head down to your toes, you find your glory, strength and hope
Come on, come on, comeback kid show ‘em how you never quit
You’re gonna rise from the pain, like a hurricane

When you hit the ground, you find your wings
You go one more round when that bell rings
They say you’re done, but here you come
You’re a hammer hittin’, spittin’ fire, prizefighter
When you’re sweating from the fear, you look it the eye
Turn the sound of defeat into your battle cry
Stakes are down, you’re outta luck
Look at you, smiling with a shiner, standing higher
Prizefighter

When you’re sweating from the fear, you look it the eye
Turn the sound of defeat into your battle cry
Stakes are down, you’re outta luck
Look at you, smiling with a shiner, standing higher
Prizefighter

Yeah
Look at you standing tall (look at you standing tall)
And you still ain’t had enough (and you still ain’t had enough)

Look at you standing tall (look at you standing tall)
And you still ain’t had enough (and you still ain’t had enough)

PrizeFighter Song Chart

This uplifting song about not giving up is the lead single and titular track from Trisha Yearwood's twelfth studio album, PrizeFighter. It marked Yearwood's first single as the lead act in six years since releasing "They Call It Falling for a Reason" in 2008.

The song features guest vocals from Kelly Clarkson. It was Yearwood's second collaboration with Clarkson, the first being the American Idol alumna's version of "Silent Night," which she recorded for her 2013 Wrapped In Red album.

The pair are friends so it was natural for Yearwood to call up Clarkson when she realized that she needed help on the cut. "When I heard this song, it was a challenge enough for me to sing," she said, "and I thought 'It needs a harmony above.'"

The empowering ballad was written by Jessi Alexander, Sarah Buxton, and Ross Copperman, "I love how 'PrizeFighter' makes me feel… like even when the odds are against me, I can do anything," Yearwood said. "It's a message we all need to hear, and the track just plain rocks!"

Yearwood said regarding the song's meaning: "'PrizeFighter' describes for me the fight we all fight, whatever it is. It's the courage to get up every day and give it your best shot, no matter the odds.

For me, I learned that strength from my mama, Gwen. She went toe to toe with breast cancer, and though she lost her battle, she fought every step of the way with grace, dignity, humor, and love. She's my prizefighter.

Whatever your battle, whoever your prizefighter is, my hope is that you draw strength from this important message."

Doctor Who Theme Lyrics

Doctor Who Theme Song Chart

Surprisingly, this piece of music has never been given a proper name, but it was impossible when it was composed in 1963 for anyone to realize the cultural significance of either the music itself or of the programme for which it was written.

The theme was written by the Australian composer Ron Grainer and arranged by Delia Derbyshire. Her input is significant enough for her to warrant a credit as co-composer, but the music was credited to the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, which was founded in 1958 to produce music and sound effects for BBC radio and television programmes. Derbyshire joined the BBC in November 1960.

The first episode of Dr Who was broadcast November 23, 1963 on BBC1 (at that time BBC, there being no other non-commercial TV station in the UK); on November 23, 2013, a special 50^th anniversary programme The Day Of The Doctors was broadcast in 94 countries.

Although the theme music has remained the same throughout the long run of this cult TV series, it has been rearranged and heavily orchestrated, most significantly by Murray Gold, but the original - light on production - is generally considered the best, and when compared with the later more sophisticated music of Jean Michel Jarre and Gary Numan, it is clear it has stood the test of time.

We've been on the run
Driving in the sun
Looking out for number one

Right back where we started from

Hustlers grab your guns
Your shadow weighs a ton

Listen as we go
Nothing's gonna stop me now

Big Bill Broonzy - Just A Dream

Album: Black, Brown & White
Released: 1938

Just A Dream Lyrics

Just A Dream Song Chart

This Broonzy composition has no connection with later songs recorded by Carrie Underwood or Nelly; it is also sometimes given an extended title "Just A Dream I Had On My Mind" after its opening.

According to a BBC documentary about Broonzy that was first screened in December 2013, the legendary bluesman wrote this song especially for the From Spirituals To Swing concerts of December 1938. Among other things, this dream sees him meeting the President at the White House, something that might have been considered extraordinary or even unthinkable for a black blues musician at that time.

What was not so unthinkable was the line in which he dreams about having ten children all looking like him because Broonzy was a notorious womanizer, though it was probably a combination of alcohol and tobacco rather than women that killed him twenty years later.

Try A Little Tenderness Song Chart

This song is a standard recorded by many artists, including crooners Frank Sinatra, Mel Torme and Bing Crosby. It was written by Jimmy Campbell, Reg Connelly and Harry Woods, and first published in 1933. Campbell and Connelly were a British songwriting team who often collaborated with a third composer, which in this case was the American Harry Woods.

In 1962, Aretha Franklin recorded the song, charting at #100 in the US at a time when most of her singles failed to get much higher. Her arrangement was similar to that of the previous crooner versions and her vocal relatively restrained; it was Otis Redding who did the definitive soulful version of the song, complete with horns, organ, and an uninhibited vocal that builds in intensity as the song progresses.

Redding did not want to record this song, but Stax Records executives and his friends wore him down with a constant barrage of requests. When he finally recorded it, he did it with a pleading vocal that he was "sure" would not be released. The ploy didn't work. Redding's version of "Try a Little Tenderness" became his signature song and the biggest-selling of the records released before his death.

Sam Cooke's version of this was a big influence on Redding. It was never released as a single but was one of high points of his live "Sam Cooke at the Copa" LP (1964) as part of a medley that started with "Tenderness" (followed by "Sentimental Reasons" and "You Send Me"). Redding idolized the man, particularly after Cooke's death, but he did not want to record "Tenderness." He caved in after tremendous pressure from his friends and (according to one source) a family member - but he didn't want to record it like Cooke (in fact, he considered his version a "joke" to quiet the people who wanted him to record it). The rest is history.

Redding recorded for Stax Records in Memphis, whose house band - Booker T. & the M.G.'s - backed him on this track. According to their drummer Al Jackson, this was the only song he ever played soft on (at least for the first part of the song), since they typically went for a hard-driving sound.

Three Dog Night recorded this as a tribute to the late Otis Redding. Their version became their first Top 40 hit in 1968. Their first Top 10 hit, "One," written and originally recorded by Harry Nilsson, soon followed.

For Three Dog Night, it was a staple of their live shows throughout the 1980s. They would often stretch the song to the 15-20 minute mark.

In the movie Bull Durham, erratic young pitcher Nuke LaLoosh, played by Tim Robbins, sings this on the team bus but butchers the lyrics, much to the dismay of Crash Davis, the veteran catcher played by Kevin Costner. Instead of "Young girls they do get wearied" he sang "Young girls they do get wooly."

This was one of two songs Aretha Franklin performed when she made her TV debut on American Bandstand August 2, 1962. A cover by her peaked at #100 on the Hot 100 the same year.

Jon Cryer's character Duckie lip-synchs this to Molly Ringwald's character Andie in the 1986 movie Pretty In Pink. The film's director Howard Deutch chose the song because he wanted something that would express the heartbreak Duckie feels as he tries to make inroads with Andie.

In 2015, Cryer re-created the scene on The Late Late Show with James Corden.

This was covered by Florence and the Machine for their 2012, MTV Unplugged – A Live Album. Speaking with Nicole Alvarez of LA radio station 106.7 KROQ, Florence Welch said it was hard choosing an acoustic cover for the show. "I almost didn't do 'Try A Little Tenderness' because it's my favorite song and I thought, 'I can't do this,'" she admitted. "I didn't know how to do it the same, but I just thought, 'I've got to slow it down.'"

The Otis Redding version was used in 2015 commercials for McDonald's Chicken Select Tenders. Because, you know, "tender" is in the song title.

On The Loose Lyrics

One day you feel quite stable
The next you're comin' off the wall
But I think you should warn me
If you start heading for a fall
I see the problem start
I watch the tension grow
I see you keeping it to yourself
And then instead of reaching conclusions
I see you reaching for something else

No one can stop you now
Tonight you're On The Loose
No one to tell you how
Tonight you're on the loose

I see no harm or danger in escaping
If the method suits the style
We put the mind on idle
And let the others take it for awhile
When the pace is too fast
And I think I won't last
You know where I'll be found
I'll be standing here beside myself
Getting ready for the final round

No one can stop you now
Tonight you're on the loose
No one to tell you how
Tonight you're on the loose

The time we feel most stable
Is the time we're comin' off the wall
And there's every indication
We may be heading for a fall
So let the problems start
And let the tension grow
We'll be keeping it to ourselves
And while they're busy reaching their conclusions
We'll be reaching for something else

No one can stop you now
Tonight you're on the loose
No one to tell you how
Tonight you're on the loose

On The Loose Song Chart

This was the biggest hit for Saga, a Canadian band that incorporated elements of progressive rock into their pop sound. Lead singer Michael Sadler wrote the song with his bandmates Ian Crichton (guitar), Jim Crichton (bass), Jim Gilmour (keyboards) and Steve Negus (drums).

Sadler told us: "'On the Loose' is blowing off steam. Everybody's got to just let it out every once in a while, you can't keep things inside. You know: tonight I'm on the loose, we're on the loose, you're on the loose. It's as simple as that.

At the time, and it's just gotten more so, stress, stress, stress for everybody, every single human on this planet. Every once in a while we've got to let go and just blow it out and deal with the consequences later. You've got to open that valve every once in a while."

The music video was one of the first concept clips by a North American band. It earned airplay in the early days of MTV, which was launched in 1981 a few months before the album came out. MTV had very little to choose from, and this one checked a lot of boxes in terms of their criteria:

Slick rock sound.
Good production value.
Could pass for American.

It was Saga's management that encouraged them to make the video, which combined performance footage with a vague storyline about a man escaping from some kind of facility.

Time's Up Lyrics

I spend half of each day just eyeing the clock
And dream of all the things I'd like to do

And nothing ever changes from day to day -
I've just been guarding this desk for you.
It's a mayday
It's a mayday
There must be something else I could do -
It's a mayday
It's a mayday
Instead of guarding this desk for

Time's Up! You've been wishing your life away.
Time's up! You've been wishing your life away.
I'm getting very tired of waiting for the weekend

Then there's nothing when it comes around.
I need a little more excitement
Give me some adventure -
I don't know you' ve held me this long.
It's a mayday
It's a mayday
Time just marches on.
It's a mayday
It's a mayday
I don't know how you've held me this long.
Time's up! You've been wishing your life away. . . .
Chances are chances and I know I've had a few
But at the time it just seemed wrong

Now I'm sitting here wondering
Waiting watching out his window
And I'm sure my day will come.
It's a mayday
It's a mayday
Time just marches on -
It's a mayday
It's a mayday
But I'm sure my day will come.
Time's up! You've been wishing your life away. . . .

Time's Up Song Chart

A track from the Canadian band Saga's most successful album, "Time's Up" wasn't a hit but did become a live favorite. In our interview with lead singer Michael Sadler , he talked about the song's meaning: "It's about being a daydreamer and a man of inaction sitting there going, 'Well, if I could do this and I could do that.' And before you know it, time has passed by and you didn't do any of those things you were thinking. You didn't act on any one of them.

You may have some passion about a few different things, but if you just sit there going, 'Boy, wouldn't it be great if I did this?' And 'Wouldn't it be great if I did that?' Well, you'd better get off your tush and start doing something, brother, because it's going to be too late to do something about it before you know it."

Kinderfeld Lyrics

Kinderfeld Song Chart

"Kinderfeld" is about Marilyn Manson's Grandfather Jack Warner, who used to go into his basement and masturbate, then cover this behavior by saying he was playing with a train set. As Manson explains in his book The Long Hard Road Out of Hell , his grandparents had strict punitive rules that they would reinforce with making him kneel on broomsticks ("I had to kneel on broomsticks just to make it go away"). He broke the rules often because the pain made him forget what he saw. Other forms of punishment are referenced in the lyrics "three holes upon the leather belt, the gut is swollen the edge the edge is showing, there is no one her to save ourselves." The song also refers to how parents and religion tell us what to think and feel ("This is what you should fear"). (thanks, Shaun - Adelaide, Australia)

As a child, Manson always wanted to witness the forbidden. This led to his spying on his grandfather, along with spying on naked women. Around that same time in his childhood, he began having vivid dreams filled with distorted images of the things he saw. These images still haunt him in his sleep and have led to the creation of many of his songs.
