Oldest Story In The World Lyrics


Kickin down the darkness
Kick it on down the drain
Kill the superstition
Gotta get a state of grace

(Chorus)
It's the Oldest Story In The World
There is nowhere left to hide
So we take it all in stride
When there's no more asking why

There is nothing left to do
But love~baby love~baby love you
Crash the television
Thrash those games and fools
Gotta get a resolution
Better go go back to school

(Chorus)

Fair-weather friends and fair-weather cool
Righteous the right buy all the bad news
Rich up the rich and dumb down the poor
Take it no more

  • Ann Wilson: "I think people are frustrated with what's happening in this country and I was trying to tap into some of the frustration I was feeling about world events. For some of us, it's like deja vu... we've been through this before."
  • Nancy Wilson: "I like to think this song strikes a blow against the media culture that tries to spoon feed us into thinking that somehow the war is only happening on TV. We come form a Marine Corps family and we know war from the inside." (thanks, Shanny - Detroit, MI, for above 2)

    Air Lyrics


    She’s part of my pages, she’s the one that’s gonna make me crazy
    What if I’m in love, so what if I am?
    I’m hiding desire, it’s like I’m walking on a high wire
    What if I’m in love, so what if I am

    Lost, uncertain, I feel good with you
    You feel it, said hopeful and true
    You tangle, I’m trapped and I’m blue
    You, nobody sees through the secrets, the real you
    But I know, 'cause I’ve seen you

    She’s certain, she’s stable, we’re gonna take it to a higher level
    What if I’m in love, so what if I am?
    I’m not gonna deny it, she’s on my mind every single moment
    What if I’m in love, so what if I am

    Lost, uncertain, I feel good with you
    You feel it, said hopeful and true
    You tangle, I’m trapped and I’m blue
    You, nobody sees through the secrets, the real you
    But I know, 'cause I’ve seen you

    I feel good when I’m with you,
    Brand new, case it blast the shadowed
    I see things with a different view
    And you reign cause you know how to get it aside

    What if I’m in love, so what if I am?
    Maybe I am

    Lost, uncertain, I feel good with you
    You feel it, said hopeful and true
    You tangle, I’m trapped and I’m blue
    You, nobody sees through the secrets, the real you
    But I know, 'cause I’ve seen you

  • The theme of Buckcherry's Confessions album is the seven deadly sins and four elements. It is part of a larger vision that includes a short film written by vocalist Josh Todd , who based the lyrics on his childhood and transformation into adulthood. He explained to Heavy Metal Artwork : "'Water' and 'Air' are about – well there's a love interest in the film – it's about these two opposite people and they're struggling with the meeting of the two worlds, and how they're going to deal with each other. That's where those songs came from."

    One Tin Soldier (The Legend of Billy Jack) Lyrics


    Listen children to a story
    That was written long ago
    'Bout a kingdom, on a mountain
    And the valley folk below
    On the mountain was a treasure
    Buried deep beneath a stone
    And the valley people swore
    They'd have it for their very own
    Go ahead and hate your neighbor
    Go ahead and cheat a friend
    Do it in the name of Heaven
    You can justify it in the end
    There won't be any trumpets blowing
    Come the judgment day
    On the bloody morning after who
    One tin soldier rides away
    So the people of the valley
    Sent a message up the hill
    Asking for the buried treasure
    Tons of gold for which they'd kill
    Came an answer from the kingdom
    With our brothers we will share
    All the secrets of our mountain
    N' all the riches buried there
    Now the valley cried in anger
    Mount your horses
    Draw your sword
    And they killed the mountain people
    So they won their just reward
    Now they stood beside the treasure
    On the mountain dark and red
    Turn the stone and which beneath it
    "Peace on Earth"
    Was all it said
    Go ahead and hate your neighbor
    Go ahead and cheat a friend
    Do it in the name of Heaven
    You can justify it in the end
    There won't be any trumpets blowing
    Come the judgment day
    On the bloody morning after who
    One tin soldier rides away
    Go ahead and hate your neighbor
    Go ahead and cheat a friend
    Do it in the name of Heaven
    You can justify it in the end
    There won't be any trumpets blowing
    Come the judgment day
    On the bloody morning after
    One tin soldier rides away

    He was always there to help her
    She always belonged to someone else

    I drove for miles and miles
    And wound up at your door
    I've had you so many times
    But somehow I want more

    [Chorus:]
    I don't mind spendin everyday
    Out on your corner in the pourin rain
    Look for the girl with the broken smile
    Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
    She Will Be Loved

    Tap on my window knock on my door
    I want to make you feel beautiful
    I know I tend to get so insecure
    It doesn't matter anymore

    It's not always rainbows and butterflies
    It's compromise that moves us along
    My heart is full and my door's always open
    You can come anytime you want

    [Chorus]

    I know where you hide alone in your car
    Know all of the things that make you who you are
    I know that goodbye means nothing at all
    Comes back and begs me to catch her everytime she falls
    Yeah

    Tap on my window knock on my door
    I want to make you feel beautiful

    [Chorus]

    Yeah
    Yeah, ooooh

    Love Will Have The Final Word Lyrics


    When the voice of fear rages in my head
    Reading down the long list of my regrets
    When the ruins are all I see
    Remind me that it only means
    That love isn't finished speaking yet

    Of all the things I've ever heard
    Let me remember when it hurts
    That Love Will Have The Final Word
    As long as God is on His throne
    I am carried by the hope
    That love will have the final word

    When the place that broke inside you will not mend
    And you wander in the dark without a friend
    When the night goes on and on
    Remember when it all goes wrong
    That this is how we know it's not the end

    Of all the things I've ever heard
    Let me remember when it hurts
    That love will have the final word
    As long as God is on His throne
    I am carried by the hope
    That love will have the final word

    Sorrow may close the chapter
    But the story will end with laughter
    Cause the worst thing is never the last thing
    No, the last thing will be the best thing

    Of all the things I've ever heard
    Let me remember when it hurts
    That love will have the final word
    As long as God is on His throne
    I am carried by the hope
    That love will have the final word

    Of all the things I've ever heard
    Let me remember when it hurts
    That love will have the final word
    As long as God is on His throne
    I am carried by the hope
    That love will have the final word

    Love will have the final word
    Love will always have the final word

    Love Will Have The Final Word
  • The title track of Jason Gray's Love Will Have The Final Word album is a proclamation of confidence and determination. The singer has the assurance that through God's redemption of our lives through Christ Jesus, the ultimate victory has been won for us, and Love indeed has the final word. "I hope when people hear the record they are persuaded that God deeply loves them for who they are and not for who they think they should be," explained Gray. "That they are assured that His love gets the last say over whatever has happened, is happening, or will happen in their lives, and that this hope is the cause for deep peace and joy. I pray that both those who are rejoicing and those who are grieving find that they are not alone, and that through all of it, by the grace of God, something of the wisdom of Love is made real."

    Cherish Lyrics


    Let's take a walk together near the ocean shore
    Hand in hand you and I
    Let's Cherish every moment we have been given
    The time is passing by
    I often pray before I lay down by your side
    If you receive your calling before I awake
    Could I make it through the night

    Cherish the love we have
    We should cherish the life we live
    Cherish the love
    Cherish the life
    Cherish the love
    Cherish the love we have
    For as long as we both shall live
    Cherish the love
    Cherish the life
    Cherish the love

    The world is always changing
    Nothing stays the same
    But love will stand the test of time
    The next life that we live in
    Remains to be seen
    Will you be by my side
    I often pray before I lay down by your side
    If you receive your calling before I awake
    Could I make it through the night

    Cherish the love we have
    We should cherish the life we live
    Cherish the love
    Cherish the life
    Cherish the love
    Cherish the love we have
    For as long as we both shall live
    Cherish the love

    Cherish
  • While recording their Emergency album, the band decided to record in the Bahamas at Compass Point Studios in Nassau. While working along the beach, lead singer James "JT" Taylor watched the band members' children happily at play and thought to himself, "How blessed we are. God has been good to us and we should cherish it."

    Taylor submitted the idea to the band's bass player Robert "Kool" Bell, who ran with it.
  • This song had special meaning for Bell, who found out his father was listening to the song when he died in October 1985.
  • This was featured in the 2009 comedy 17 Again, starring Zac Efron and Matthew Perry.
  • Ronald Bell, the band's saxophonist and music director, started collecting lots of new music equipment at the time, including a piece included on this track: a drum machine.
  • Ronald furnished the track and gave it to Taylor to write the lyrics, who said it was the first time he'd ever written a song in one sitting without any changes. Producer Jim Bonnefond did want to overhaul the song with new lyrics, though, and even brought in songwriter Sandy Linzer for the task. But Linzer wasn't having it. "They used maybe a couple of lines in the chorus that I gave them gratis, but I thought the song was perfect," he told Billboard.

    Living in a Box Lyrics


    Woke up this mornin'
    Closed in on both sides
    Nothin' doin'
    I feel resistance

    As I open my eyes
    Someone's foolin'
    I found a way to break through this cellophane bag
    'Cause I know what's goin' on
    In your mind

    I'm a livin' in a box
    I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
    I'm a livin' in a box
    I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
    I'm a livin' in a box

    Life goes in circles
    Around and around
    Circulating
    I sometimes wonder

    What's movin' underground
    I'm escaping
    I found a way to break through this cellophane bag
    'Cause I know what's goin' on
    In my mind

    I'm a livin' in a box
    I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
    I'm a livin' in a box
    I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
    I'm a livin' in a box

    Livin'
    Ahh ha
    I found a way to break through this cellophane bag
    'Cause I know what's goin' on

    I'm a livin' in a box

    I'm a livin' in a box
    I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
    I'm a livin' in a box

    Living in a Box
  • Living in a Box were a British band who formed in Sheffield, Yorkshire in 1985. They comprised singer Richard Darbyshire, drummer Anthony (Titch) Critchlow and keyboard player Marcus Vere.

    They are best known for their eponymous debut single, which was a hit in the US and UK. The band named themselves after the song, which Critchlow and Vere had already been working on before Darbyshire joined the group.
  • Though it was their only single to chart in the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, Living In A Box enjoyed more success in their home country, achieving four more Top 40 hits, including the #5 peaking "Room In Your Heart." Artistic differences caused the band to break up in 1990 after the release of two albums. Darbyshire went on to become a successful songwriter, penning tunes for the likes of Lisa Stansfield, Level 42 and Jennifer Rush.
  • The song was used in a Vodafone TV commercial during the second half of 2013.
  • Bobby Womack covered this song. His version reached #70 in the UK in 1987 and was also a minor US hit. (thanks, Guy - New York, NY)

    Tapioca Tundra Lyrics


    Reasoned verse some prose or rhyme
    Lose themselves in other times
    And waiting hopes cast silent spells
    That speak in clouded clues
    It cannot be a part of me
    For now it's part of you
    Sunshine, rag time, blowing in the breeze

    Midnight looks right standing more at ease
    Silhouettes and figures stay
    Close to what he had to say
    And one more time the faded dream
    Is saddened by the news
    It cannot be a part of me
    For not it's a part of you

  • Mike Nesmith wrote this song inspired by a large collection of old 45 records from the '20s and '30s he purchased at a yard sale. Along with "Magnolia Simms," this was a tribute to the ragtime and jazz of the '20s, even going so far as recording using gramophone technology to mimic the echo and the skipping of an old recording. It was also the basis for Nesmith's first major solo project in 1968, The Wichita Train Whistle Sings. (thanks, Brian - Providence, RI)
  • The title is not mentioned in the lyrics. Mike Nesmith had a habit of doing this a lot on his compositions ("Papa Gene's Blues," "Auntie's Municipal Court," "Daily Nightly," etc.). (thanks, Barry Kesten - Bellmore, United States)

    Only The Good Die Young Lyrics


    Come out Virginia, don't let 'em wait
    You Catholic girls start much too late
    Aw but sooner or later it comes down to faith
    Oh I might as well be the one

    Well, they showed you a statue, told you to pray
    They built you a temple and locked you away
    Aw, but they never told you the price that you pay
    For things that you might have done
    Only The Good Die Young
    That's what I said
    Only the good die young
    Only the good die young

    You might have heard I run with a dangerous crowd
    We ain't too pretty we ain't too proud
    We might be laughing a bit too loud
    Aw but that never hurt no one

    So come on Virginia show me a sign
    Send up a signal and I'll throw you the line
    The stained-glass curtain you're hiding behind
    Never let's in the sun
    Darlin' only the good die young
    Woah
    I tell ya
    Only the good die young
    Only the good die young

    You got a nice white dress and a party on your confirmation
    You got a brand new soul
    Mmm, and a cross of gold
    But Virginia they didn't give you quite enough information
    You didn't count on me
    When you were counting on your rosary
    (Oh woah woah)

    They say there's a heaven for those who will wait
    Some say it's better but I say it ain't
    I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints
    The sinners are much more fun

    You know that only the good die young
    I tell ya
    Only the good die young
    Only the good die young

    Well your mother told you all that I could give you was a reputation
    Aw she never cared for me
    But did she ever say a prayer for me? oh woah woah

    Come out come out come out Virginia don't let 'em wait
    You Catholic girls start much too late
    Oh sooner or later it comes down to faith
    Oh I might as well be the one
    You know that only the good die young

    I'm telling you baby
    You know that only the good die young

  • Virginia was Virginia Callaghan, a girl Billy had a crush on when he first started playing in a band. She didn't even know he existed until she saw him in a gig, but thirteen years later he used her as the main character in this song about a Catholic girl who won't have premarital sex.
  • Many musicians join bands to meet girls, but few overachieve the way Joel did, dating models and even marrying one of them (Christie Brinkley). Virginia Callaghan was the first of these girls that thought differently of Joel when she saw him perform. Billy explained to Uncut in 1998: "I originally started in bands just to meet girls – it was round the time The Beatles first hit America – but I didn't know you could actually make a living out of it. My first gig was in a church, about '64 – we did Beatles songs, and this girl I had a crush on, Virginia Callaghan, who normally wouldn't look twice at me, just stared at me through the whole gig. And I thought, 'This is so cool!' And then all these other girls were lookin' at me as well. Then, at the end of the night, the priest comes up and gives us like 15 dollars apiece, which in '64 was a fortune! Girls and money! Man, I was hooked."
  • This song was originally recorded with a Reggae groove, which can be heard on some bootlegs that were inadvertently leaked via drummer Liberty DeVito's camp. DeVito didn't like the Reggae beat, which is why Joel changed it. (thanks, Barry Kesten - Bellmore, United States)
  • This didn't do very well until church officials around the US heard it and condemned the song. The controversy was great publicity and sent the song up the charts. Joel recalled to the Metro newspaper July 6, 2006 about the controversy stirred up by this number: "That song was released as a single back in 1977, I think. It was not really doing very well, just languishing in the charts. Then it was banned by a radio station in New Jersey at a Catholic university. The minute the kids found out it was banned, they ran out in droves and it became a huge hit. If you tell kids they can't have something, that's what they want. I don't understand the problem with the song. It's about a guy trying to seduce a girl but, at the end of the song, she's still chaste and pure and he hasn't got anything. So I never understood what the furor was about. But I did write a letter to the archdiocese who'd banned it, asking them to ban my next record."
  • Joel told USA Today July 9, 2008: "Jewish guilt is visceral it's in the stomach. Catholic guilt is in the belfry of the cerebrum, it's gothic and its got incense, bells tolling, and it has all to do with sin. I wanted to write a song about it, about a guy trying to seduce a Catholic girl. I don't know what all the fuss was about, because she stayed chaste. I remember taking it over to the drummer, Liberty (DeVitto). 'Well, it's true,' he said, 'but I don't know how people are going to respond to it!"
  • Melissa Etheridge did a particularly prurient version of this song at a 2014 Billy Joel town hall event hosted by Howard Stern. Etheridge explained that she grew up playing Joel's songs in piano bars and cover bands, but she never had the chance to perform this one, which was one of her favorites. She explained: "It was the end of the '70s, and a girl could not sing this song. But of all of his songs, this one really resonated with me. When I was a senior in high school, it hit really close to home. The song is about pure lust. It's the physical, carnal pleasure: let's do it."

    PretzelBodyLogic Lyrics


    PretzelBodyLogic yeah, it's so much fun!
    Dreaming of each other on each other's tongue
    Tastes a bitter sweet undone
    Now we both too sleepy to get the gun

    Woo!

    Oh!

    (Wake up)

    Woo!

    Hear the plane humming back on the run
    One I would sleep between 'em better than none
    Promoter tried to rob 'em we said "Go 'head son!"
    Because we're both too sleepy to get the gun

    Pretzelbodylogic yeah, it's so much fun!
    Dreaming of each other on each other's tongue
    Tastes a bitter sweet undone
    Now we both too sleepy to get the gun

    Bank's on a holiday, credit's overrun
    Somebody else's problem to tie for another one
    Pull these shades one me black out the Sun
    I need a little more rest, then we'll do what needs to be done!

    Pretzelbodylogic yeah, it's so much fun!
    Dreaming of each other on each other's tongue
    Tastes a bitter sweet undone
    Now we both too sleepy to get the gun

    Woo!

    Limo on tarmack ready to ride
    Cutie-Pie driver said "Get inside!"
    Another limousine about to get alone
    Put your seat back now, it's one (One!) two (Two!)
    Three for the road! (Three for the road!)

    Pretzelbodylogic yeah, it's so much fun!
    Dreaming of each other on each other's tongue
    Tastes a bitter sweet undone
    Now we both too sleepy to get the gun

    Pretzelbodylogic yeah, it's so much fun!
    Dreaming of each other on each other's tongue
    Tastes a bitter sweet undone
    Now we both too sleepy to get the gun

    Woo!

  • This upbeat Funk-Rock jam is a song from Prince's Plectrum Electum album, which he performs with his 3rdEyeGirl band. The group is made up of guitarist Donna Grantis, bassist Ida Neilsen and drummer Hannah Ford Welton. Nielsen told the crowd at a listening party that Plectrum Electum was, "completely recorded live, analog, old-school. We were influenced by Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, people that recorded analog. People aren't recording analog anymore. It's manufactured, overproduced music."
  • The Minneapolis singer debuted the song in the post-Super Bowl "Prince" episode of New Girl, which also featured the superstar dishing out relationship advice to the show's stars Jess (Zooey Deschanel) and Nick (Jake Johnson). "He contacted us last season because he's a huge fan," the show's producer Brett Baer told MTV News. "He knows everything about the show. He contacted Zooey and Hannah [Simone] directly and asked to do the show. We couldn't work it out last year. But when the Super Bowl thing was floated, it was perfect timing."
