To Hell With You Lyrics

Sit, just stop fucking around
Throwing shade on the ground
I stick around to tone it down
Hey, shut lips

These days they might age you
With no one to age you
These days they might age you
With no one to see you

You don't live, don't lie
Just be ok
Hey, don't take it out on me
If you can't see
You know that it's the truth
Only you, don't take it back on me
The way I see
I?ll go To Hell With You
Here's the proof

True, it was a test
Why did you lie? I thought I?d die
Highest highs and lowest lows
Everybody knows
Love, it costs
There's always someone somewhere who cares, hey there
There's always someone somewhere who cares, hey there
There's always someone somewhere who cares, hey there
There's always someone somewhere who cares, hey there

Don't live, don't lie
Just be ok
Hey, don't take it out on me
If you can't see
You know that it's the truth
Only you, don't take it back on me
The way I see
I?ll go to hell with you
Here's the proof

(x2)
Yes, yes, yes
The sound of this is good so
Yes, yes, yes
You know I'm good at this love

These days they might age you
With no one to age you
These days they might age you
With no one to see you

Don't live, don't lie
Just be ok
Hey, don't take it out on me
If you can't see
You know that it's the truth
Only you, don't take it back on me
The way I see
I?ll go to hell with you
Here's the?

To Hell With You

This song finds Alexis Krauss telling a friend that she will be there with them all the way. She told NME: "We did a demo with this that was totally different. We sped this up dramatically. This was a much slower, sort of sparse little thing we did."

Wicked Garden Lyrics

Can you see like a child?
Can you see what I want?
I wanna run through your Wicked Garden
Heard that's the place to find ya
Cause I'm alive So alive now
I know the darkness blinds you

Can you see without eyes?
Can you speak without lies?
I wanna drink from your naked fountain
i can drown your sorrows
I'm gonna burn Burn you to life now
Out of the chains that bind you

Can you see just like a child?
Can you see just what I want?
Can I bring you back to life?
Are you still alive?

Burn
Burn your wicked garden down
Burn your wicked garden to the ground

Can you feel pain inside?
Can you love?
Can you cry?
I wanna run through your wicked garden
Heard that's the place to find ya
Cause I'm alive So Alive now
I know the darkness blinds you

Can you see just like a child?
Can you see just what I want?
Can I bring you back to life?
Are you still alive?

Wicked Garden

This song about innocence lost could be seen as a general sentiment, but it could also relate to drug use, describing the temptations, along with the highs and lows, that come from drug abuse.

A band composition, lead singer Scott Weiland came up with the idea for this song before the band got a record deal. At the time, they were known as Mighty Joe Young, and they still had day jobs: Weiland worked for a modeling agency as a driver.

Love Sick Lyrics

When I heard you're still alright
I must admit, I laughed , I cried
I found a stranger too about
I tell the truth, oh leave me down
I've lived my only tale or die
I cut my thing so short on sight
But dear, love is a contact sport
Doing bunny hops and I'll never stop

[Chorus]
If you' Could you' Would you'
Just because you can doesn't mean you should
Is that understood' Oh oh
If you' Could you' Would you'
Just because you can doesn't mean you should
Is that understood'

Terminate a lex and let's jump in the next
Runnin' down the street, always chasing boys there
Love sucked, love sucked
He gave up up up up
Just nowhere to go, I was feeling just fine
Now I'm running along 'cause you cut me in live
Love sucked, love sucked
He gave up up up up

[Chorus]
If you' Could you' Would you'
Just because you can doesn't mean you should
Is that understood' Oh oh
If you' Could you' Would you'
Just because you can doesn't mean you should
Is that understood'

The pleasure of your company
Look what it's done to me
The pleasure of your company
Look what it's done to me

There's a heart in my chest
Where a hope used to be
There's a hope in my chest
Where a heart used to be

I'm sending gummy bears to the electric chair

Love Sick

This was the last song Sleigh Bells recorded for Bitter Rivals. Guitarist Derek Miller told NME: "By the end there's just this mess of emotion and ideas. Not disaster, but the lyric just flips last second at the end. 'There's a heart in my chest where a hole used to be. There's a hole in my chest where a heart used to...be' And then it's like 'I'm sending gummy bears to the electric chair,' which is so ridiculous, it's gotta be the most ridiculous lyric ever written and I love it. I love it. I remember we were like, 'Can we do this? Can you sing this? Can you sing this and get away with this?' You know, the jury's out. But for me, I was like 'cool, the record's done.' You know what I mean with that? You know, 'Bitter Rivals' and then of course 'Minnie' and 'Sing Like a Wire' and then you know it starts to shift on 'Young Legends' but then I feel like, yeah it just turns into something very different by the second half."

"It was an inspired moment," continued Miller, "it happened very quickly. That song has immediacy and sounds very inspired to me. And that's where we were at. We were at the end of the record, and you're supposed to be tapped out. But we're still on our toes, and I was like my first thought was like 'How am I going to get through a year without making another record.' But that was a good feeling, we just finished and I'm already dying. That song, it was like, it feels like we can go anywhere from here. I feel like we can go anywhere from here."

Tusk Lyrics

Why don't you ask him if he's going to stay?
Why don't you ask him if he's going away?
Why don't you tell me what's going on?
Why don't you tell me who's on the phone?

Why don't you ask him what's going on?
Why don't you ask him who's the latest on his throne?
Don't say that you love me!
Just tell me that you want me!

Tusk!
Just say that you want me
Just tell me that you

Tusk!
Tusk!
Tusk!

Tusk

The "Tusk" is slang for penis, so the song is basically about sex. When Stevie Nicks heard the album was going to be called Tusk, she objected, but Mick Fleetwood really wanted to use the title, so he ignored her and she dropped the subject.

Stevie Nicks recalled to Mojo in 2015: "I didn't understand the title, there was nothing beautiful or elegant about the word 'tusk.' It really bought to mind those people stealing ivory. Even then, in 1979 you just thought, the rhinos are being poached and that tusks are being stolen and the elephants are being slaughtered and ivory is being sold on the black market. I don't recall it being (Mick's slang term for the male member), that went right over my prudish little head. I wasn't told that until quite a while after the record was done, and when I did find out I liked the title even less!"

The music was based on a riff the band used to play when they were introduced at concerts as the lights came up and they were introduced to the audience. When it came time to record the Tusk album, they decided to use it for a song.

The University of Southern California marching band played on this track. Mick Fleetwood decided to use a big brass sound after a visit to Europe in 1978 where he saw brass bands marching down the street.

Speaking with Johnny Black in 1995, Mick Fleetwood explained how it happened: "In soundchecks we used to jam on that riff, and I did the riff in drum form. When it came time to make the album, we pulled that riff out, screwed around with it, put it in the dustbin, and then a year into making that album, I pulled it out again and took it with me as a rough track to Normandy and came up with the idea of using the brass band on it, and using about 100 drummers on it, which we did.

That really worked. It's a glorious noise, and it's something I'm proud of because it's all drums. There's really no lyrics to it.

So I resurrected that, much to everyone's amazement, and I insisted on recording the USC marching band at Dodger Stadium. By this time they'd thought for sure I'm round the twist, and I said, 'Well, I'm going to pay for it. And we're going to film it.' They thought, 'For sure, he's blown it. He's way off the deep end.'"

The USC Trojan Marching Band was recorded at Dodger Stadium on June 4, 1979 while the Los Angeles Dodgers were on a road trip. This was a few weeks after graduation, so while some band members didn't show, most did, since just about everyone had a copy of Rumours in their dorm room and was thrilled to play on a Fleetwood Mac track.

Rehearsals took place in late May, and the day of the recording, each band member signed a release and was paid a dollar. The whole scene was filmed, and the footage used to make the music video. Stevie Nicks is seen twirling, but not like her signature stage move - this time it was with a baton.

Lindsey Buckingham was keen on experimentation at the time, so he recorded some of his vocals for this song in his bathroom using a microphone he placed on the floor that was connected to his home studio. He
also did some percussion for the track on empty Kleenex boxes in his bathroom.

During the recording of the album, Mick Fleetwood got a large pair of replica elephant tusks that he set up on either side of the console, which became known as "Tusk." Whenever the console wasn't working, the band would say, "Tusk is down, Tusk isn't working!"

According to Stevie Nicks, the tusks gave them inspiration. "Those 13 months working in that room were our journey up the sacred mountain to the sacred African percussion place, were all the gods of music lived," she said.

The group's bass player John McVie had a falling out with Lindsey Buckingham and never made it to Dodger Stadium for the shoot, so he was replaced in the video with a cardboard cutout. When MTV launched in 1981, the song had already been out for two years, but the network played it anyway, as they didn't have many clips by popular rock bands.

In 1977, Fleetwood Mac released Rumours, which was one of the most successful albums ever released. Tusk was the follow-up, but the band (especially Lindsey Buckingham), decided to experiment instead of copying the sound of Rumours. The result was a 20-track double album with some very adventurous songs. The title track was the first single, and it did well, reaching #8 in the US. The next single was "Sara," which made #7.

Tusk ended up selling far fewer copies than Rumours, partly because the double disc was sold for a hefty $15.98 in America. It certainly didn't tarnish the band's legacy, as it showed that they were willing to take risks when they could have simply recycled Rumours.

"Tusk is probably my favorite and most important Fleetwood Mac album," Mick Fleetwood said. "Tusk meant this band's survival - if we hadn't made that album, we might have broken up."

On the Tusk tour, Fleetwood Mac played five shows in December 1979 at The Forum in Inglewood, California, near Los Angeles. The USC Trojan Marching Band appeared with them at each of these shows, lifted from hydraulic risers behind the stage to join the band on this song.

Fittingly, this is a very popular song among marching bands, especially at USC where the song has been performed regularly since its inception. At home games, fans often chant "UCLA Sucks!" during the song, even if they are not playing UCLA.

Two other schools also claimed it: the University of Alabama and the University of Arkansas. The Arkansas mascot is a razorback (boar) known as "Tusk"; the University of Alabama's mascot is an elephant known as "Big Al," which is actually tuskless in anthropomorphic form, but the University of Alabama is in Tuscaloosa.

Love Take Me Over Lyrics

I hear the clock beep, pull me out of my sleep
Tell me there's a day ahead of me
Trying to wake up, sipping on a hot cup
With the little lady in green

And I'm praying 'bout the man I wanna be
Saying, God, please take all of me
And fill me up with Your love

Love, take these words that I'm speaking
Love, take these thoughts that I'm thinking
Love, take me over
Love, fill up all of my space and
Love, stand right here in my place
Love, hear this prayer that I'm praying
Love, take me, love, take me over
Love, take me over

This is what I'm sure of, I can only show love
When I really know how loved I am
When it overtakes me, then it animates me
Flowing from my heart into my hands

So I'm praying, Father, help my heart believe
That right now You're singing over me
And fill me up with Your love

Love, take these words that I'm speaking
Love, take these thoughts that I'm thinking
Love, take me over
Love, fill up all of my space and
Love, come stand right here in my place
Love, hear this prayer that I'm praying
Love, take me, love, take me over
Love, take me over

(Take me over, take me over)
Let Your never-ending, never-failing, all-consuming love
Take over me

So I am praying, Father, help my heart believe
That right now You're singing over me
And fill me up with Your love

Love, take these words that I'm speaking
Love, take these thoughts that I'm thinking
Love, take me over
Love, fill up all of my space and
Love, stand right here in my place
Love, hear this prayer that I'm praying
Love, take everything that I'm doing
Love, like a river, flow through me
Love, take me over

Love, fill up all of my space and
Love, stand right here in my place
Love, hear this prayer that I'm praying
Love, take me, love, take me over
Love, take me, love, take me over
Love, take me, love, take me over
Love, take me over

Love Take Me Over

This sunny track encourages listeners to be intentionally aware of how much God loves them. "Even though it's in the guise of a very fun, up-tempo sing-along-at-the-top-of-your-lungs song, it's a message and a lesson that I have continued to be in the process of learning," Chapman said of the song. "I need to be filled with love so that I can be loving in the way I respond. I'm still learning that the only way I want to love others well in my life is when I come to terms daily, sometimes hourly, sometimes in 15 minute increments, with the fact that I am loved fully and completely, not as I should be, but as I am. That drives me, then, to a place of living a life of love for others when I realize that I am loved first. We love because He first loved us."

I'll Never Fall in Love Again Lyrics

What do you get when you fall in love?
A guy with a pin to burst your bubble
That's what you get for all your trouble
I'll Never Fall in Love Again
I'll never fall in love again

What do you get when you kiss a guy?
You get enough germs to catch pneumonia
After you do, he'll never phone ya
I'll never fall in love again
Dontcha know that I'll never fall in love again?

Don't tell me what it's all about
'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out
Out of those chains, those chains that bind you
That is why I'm here to remind you

What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow
So far at least until tomorrow
I'll never fall in love again
No, no, I'll never fall in love again

Ahh, out of those chains, those chains that bind you
That is why I'm here to remind you

What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow
So far at least until tomorrow
I'll never fall in love again
Dontcha know that I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall in love again

I'll Never Fall in Love Again

Burt Bacharach and Hal David wrote this for the Broadway musical Promises, Promises, Neil Simon's musical adaptation of Billy Wilder's screenplay The Apartment. Bacharach and David had added this song to the musical at the last minute at a time when Burt had the flu, which explains Hal David's little joke of rhyming "Pneumonia" with "Phone ya."

Though she did not appear in Promises, Promises, Warwick recorded the five songs for the musical and included three of them on her 1968 album Promises, Promises. This was not included on an album until Warwick's 1970 release I'll Never Fall In Love Again.

Because there was no time to write a full musical arrangement, the song was performed to a solitary guitar accompaniment, which was unusual for a Bacharach composition.

In the UK Bobby Gentry had the hit version, her cover topped the UK charts for a week in October 1969.

Burt Bacharach has said that he wrote this song faster than any other, since he was working on deadline. "Given the opportunity, I'll play with a song or an orchestration for as long as I can," he said.

Speaking with Record Collector magazine, Burt Bacharach said: "I had just gotten out of the hospital. I'd been on the road and gotten pneumonia. We were on the road with Promises, Promises and we'd try to get this song written and into the show the next night or two nights later. That's where Hal's line came from, 'what do you do when you kiss a girl, you get another germs to catch an ammonia, after you do she'll never phone ya.' So having been in the hospital for five days with pneumonia, I got out and struggled to write that song feeling not too great. You should take a rest after that and not go back into the Broadway show environment out on the road!"

This won the 1970 Grammy award for Best Contemporary Vocal Performance.

The Carpenters covered this song in 1970 on their second album, Close to You.

Together Lyrics

Here we stand, here we are
With all our wounds and battle scars
From all the storms and all the wars we’ve weathered Together
We had no way of knowing when
We started way back there and then
How the road would twist and turn and bend
We just knew we belonged together

And if it wasn’t for God’s mercy and His grace
There’s no way we would be standing in this place
But because He has been faithful
Every step along the way
Here we are together

We’ve climbed up mountains higher than
Were ever in our hopes and plans
We’ve held onto each other’s hands
Watched miracles unfold together
And we’ve crawled on our hands and knees
Through valleys cold and dark and deep
Sometimes not even sure if we could make it out alive together

And if it wasn’t for God’s mercy and His grace
There’s no way we would be standing in this place
But because He has been faithful
Every step along the way
Here we are together, together

And if it wasn’t for God’s mercy and His grace
There’s no way we would be standing in this place
But because He has been faithful
Every step along the way
Here we are together, together

Together

Steven Curtis penned this slowly symphonic song for his wife, Mary Beth, five years after they lost their youngest daughter Maria Sue in a tragic accident. "In October (2013), we celebrate our 29th anniversary," he said. "Statistics show that 90% of marriages don't survive the loss of a child. The fact that we are together celebrating 29 years of marriage is a testimony to God's faithfulness and God's grace."

Chapman added that he delayed playing this song for Mary Beth until it was completely finished, recorded and mixed. "I sat her down and played this for her as we held hands and wept together through this celebration of God's faithfulness," he said, "I'm really hopeful that this song will encourage and minister to people in a deep way."

Remember Tomorrow Lyrics

Unchain the colors before my eyes,
Yesterday's sorrows, tomorrow's white lies.
Scan the horizon, the clouds take me higher,
I shall return from out of fire.

Tears for remembrance, and tears for joy,
Tears for somebody and this lonely boy.
Out in the madness, the all seeing eye,
Flickers above us, to light up the sky.

Unchain the colours before my eyes,
Yesterday's sorrows, tomorrow's white lies.
Scan the horizon, the clouds take me higher,
I shall return from out of fire.

Remember Tomorrow

Written by bassist Steve Harris and lead singer Paul Di'Anno, this was Iron Maiden's first low-mid tempo ballad ever released, and it appeared on their debut album. It's a marked change from most power ballads witnessed on many other Iron Maiden songs such as "Revelations," "Hallowed Be Thy Name" and "Fear of the Dark."

According to Paul Di'Anno, the title and concept of this song came from his grandfather. Di'Anno told us : "I lost him in 1980, when I was on tour. He was a diabetic. They cut off his toe and his heel, then he lost his leg from the knee down, and he just sort of gave up.

'Remember Tomorrow,' that is what he always used to say - that was his little catch phrase. 'You never know what is going to happen, remember tomorrow, it might be a better day.'"

Simple Man Lyrics

Ayo I’m goin' places, Dior home lacin' on occasions
And Lord gave me amazing thinking in short paces
Lay solo, forever flashy though I hate photos
Date four hoes, make her smile and make her moan though
Lady charmer put armor by your baby mama
I hate to say it a later moment I didn’t warn ya
High roller, big spender
And my intentions to keep her on the sack, you just saks fifth her
I’m that different, this cat can react mad pimpish
I gathered a couple hundred thousand, I can’t remember
They keep talkin' and we keep winning
Why niggas never say capisce until police chalk em
Because of my bitch that's talkin', givin' her head, the streets will follow
I come from a place where niggas my age ain't placed to see tomorrow
To each his own but each of them is known to steal or rob you
So chances over populated but know the seats in college
And those are the least of problems, I speak to God he says I’m alright
My visions funny, though 20-20’s my hindsight
Bad bitches with me, real niggas with me
Whole ghetto with me mixin' kettle with the simply
Like the sweet anguish, find your peace baby
I know the millions you get come with a billion haters, yea

Forgive, I’m a rider
Sure I’m just a Simple Man
All I want is money, fuck the fame
I’m a simple man, lawd!

You know that I’m a rider
Tell em just a simple man
All I want is money,fuck the fame
I’m a simple man, lawd!

I’m pickin' apart, my wicked opponents, get in my zone
Niggas can't join us, so, these niggas done cloned us
Look at me close, see the results you see a nigga a loner
Cause all of the bitches thats givin me grief also be given me bonus
Blow up in rap, young and you black
Niggas Be blowin your phone up
Whenever you don’t, least you a homie, ho
Adult from show cuz
If you get that, then roll up
If you get that, that’s no love
Every move you make they go left
Every chick you like done got kids
And forget that chick had brought friends
Every jay you hit you need vent
Every friend you got, got M.O's
I’m in a gang, even with a deep bitch
I’mma ball like small for a cold huh
Without the ate, where’d all the hate go?
Pockets thicker all my niggas, ain't the same though
I just came up, fuck is you sayin' though
Gave the business my heart, it just gave me the finger, nigga, yeah

Forgive, I’m a rider

All I want is money, fuck the fame

This self-reflecting track contains some witty borrowing from the late 2Pac's "How Do U Want It." Wale said to Complex Magazine of the late rapper: "Pac is still the most influential person in young, black culture because of the mentality he instilled and he's been gone for like 15 years now. By that I mean, the I.D.G.A.F. (I Don't Give A F--k) Attitude. He didn't really care about s--t. He was more for the people and I'm learning that. I put my music and the people first, that's where I'm at with it."

The song finds Wale stepping into the production ring. He is credited for supplying the head-nodding beat under the name "Ralph Folarin."

The video was shot in Toronto during the 2013 OVO Fest with Drake and J Cole, who make cameo appearances in the clip.

To sit not very far from here

Faster than the Speed of Light Lyrics

Faster than the Speed of Light

The first track on the British Metal band Raven's second album, this was a band composition written by their three members: frontman/bass player John Gallagher, his guitarist/brother Mark, and drummer Rob "Wacko" Hunter. The band was going for speed on the album, and wanted to make a statement with the leadoff track. In our interview with John Gallagher , he explained the concept. "That was me reading a whole bunch of physics books," he said. "There were all these things about the possibility of traveling faster than light. Well, this is perfect, a fast song, faster than the speed of light."

Musically, this is a very unusual song. John Gallagher explains: "It's in the key of D, very bright, very not dark. There's not a lot of discord. You hear so many riffs these days which are just, 'Take the most wrong note possible and put it with the next one.' This one was very major in theme and in feel. A lot of breaks."

You might notice some similarities between parts of this song and a middle portion of the 1984 Iron Maiden song "Aces High." The guys from Raven have said that Maiden "ripped off" this passage.

I'm always outplayed, up on your down days,
I left it the right way, to start again

Now watch me rise up and leave,
All the Ashes you made out of me,
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on,
Just look how long I've agreed
Just look how long I've agreed

Out of place, like a gem on a coalface
Lost on the right way, it's all the same
'Cause I've had my hopes raised, riding the wrong waves
Scared when you feel safe to start again

Now watch me rise up and leave,
All the ashes you made out of me,
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on, just look how wrong I could be
Now watch me rise up and leave,
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on, you blew me away
Away
Away
Away

Now watch me rise up and leave,
All the ashes you made out of me,
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on, just look how wrong I could be
Now watch me rise up and leave,
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on, you blew me away
Away
Away
Away

I sink like a stone, I lost my control
I sink like a stone, I lost my control
I sink like a stone, I lost my control

Ashes

Lead singer Danny Macnamara and his brother wrote this as the first song on Out Of Nothing, their comeback CD. They originally wrote the song without a drum beat as a soft piano ballad. Danny didn't like it, but eventually, after some fighting and swearing, the two brothers agreed to make the sound more upbeat.
