Wondering Where The Lions Are

Lyrics

Wondering Where The Lions Are
Sun's up, uuh huh, looks okay
The world survives into another day
And I'm thinking about eternity
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me.
I had another dream about lions at the door
They weren't half as frightening as they were before
But I'm thinking about eternity
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me.
Walls windows trees, waves coming through
You be in me and i'll be in you
Together in eternity
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me
Up among the firs where it smells so sweet
Or down in the valley where the river used to be
I got my mind on eternity
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me
And I'm wondering where the lions are...
I'm wondering where the lions are...
Huge orange flying boat rises off a lake,
Thousand-year-old petroglyphs doing a double take,
Pointing a finger at eternity
I'm sitting in the middle of this ecstasy
Young men marching, helmets shining in the sun,
Polished as precise like the brain behind the gun
(should be!) they got me thinking about eternity
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me
And I'm wondering where the lions are...
I'm wondering where the lions are...
Freighters on the nod on the surface of the bay
One of these days we're going to sail away,
Going to sail into eternity
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me
And I'm wondering where the lions are...
I'm wondering where the lions are
Back Of The Bus - G. Love

Lyrics

Back Of The Bus
Swing like a pendulum
Rules you know I'm bending 'em
All the cool kids on the back of the bus
High like Mt. Everest looking for some leverage
Floating like some vapors coolin like a beverage
I cherish the moment when I get the lucky chance
To sing my song and let the funky people dance
make it last. Sonic blasts move past fast fly
Outta speaker's sneakers stomp to the rhythm that will romp

Let the wild rumpus start cause it
just can't stop
And all the cool kids in the back of the bus
Cop a feel
Steal a kiss miss
I hope ya won't regret it
And all of the kids in the back I hope you get it

All the cool kids in the back of the bus
Rubba dubba scrubba bubba
Whatchu talkin' bout gus breakin the rules
I hope we don't get caught sha la la la la la la la la

All of the kids in the back quit buggin
Get your hands in the vehicle before you lose something
Keep bouncin to the beat of wheels that are bumpin
Get your ass out of bed
Cause you know the bus is coming
If you miss the damn bus well you better start running
Brown bag full of grub
yo you gotta eat something
Keep rockin to the rhythm of the windshield wipers
Staying up late night all nighters
Keepin busy too much work is making you dizzy
All the cool kids in the back are you with me?

*All the cool kids in the back of the bus
Rubba dubba scrubba bubba whatchu talkin' bout gus
breakin the rules I hope we don't get caught Sha la la la la la la la la

Road trip runnin with the music up loud
take a trip from the north to the dirty south
Wherever it leads ya/ overheated on the side of the road
Sweating that ass 25 cent cologne
Sticking to the seats like a lil piece of gum
and all of the kids in the back want to come
in the back of the bus its a make out session
she's got the salad an I've got the dressing

gotta get home and study for my final
write your name on the back of the bus seat vinyl
sitting on the stool by the principles office
gettin chewed out cut down cut up cut out run out
punished with demerits and detention
"oh its you again" please don't put me back in summer school
I'm just a kid
one of many
trying to have a little fun bendin'
a couple of the rules on the back of the bus
THE BACK OF THE BUS
Barefootin' - Jimmy Buffett

Lyrics

Barefootin'
Everybody get on your feet
You make me nervous when you in your seat
Take off your shoes and pat your feet
We're doing a dance that can't be beat
We're barefootin'
Barefootin'
Barefootin'
Barefootin'

Went to a party the other night
Long Tall Sally was out of sight
She threw her wig, and her high sneakers too
She was doing a dance without any shoes
She was barefootin'
Barefootin'
Barefootin'
Barefootin'

Hey little girl with the red dress on
I bet you can barefoot all night long
Take off your shoes and throw them away
Come back and get them another day
Barefootin'
Barefootin'
Barefootin'
Barefootin'

Lil John Henry he said to Sue
If I can barefoot, you can barefoot too
Sue told John, I can get out here and groove
I was barefootin ever since I was two
Barefootin'
Barefootin'
Barefootin'
Barefootin'
Take off your shoes and dance
Barefootin'
Barefootin'
Barefootin'
Barefootin'
Florida - Mofro

Lyrics

Florida
I remember my grandpa tellin me
About the early days of Florida
Born a swamp cracka two miles from Granny's Bay
Comin up the way of the wilderness
No car, phone, or electric light
Yeah just livin life one day at a time
No newspaper, no war, no strife
Just the elemental keys that provide for life

Florida I know you're out there hiding from me
You get harder and harder to find
To understand every day she keeps slippin away
Florida please don't fade on me now

Autum sun sets morning skys ablaze
The oaks and the pines turn their palms up to the sun
The kind of beauty that hits down in your soul
But still you're hellbent to destroy it all
With Concrete and steel we pave
A road to hell on a land we've killed
So take a good look and remember it now
Cause one day you're gonna wake up and find it goooooone.

Now skyskrapers and superhighways are carving throught the heart of Florida
Building subdivisions while the swamps are drained, making room for people and amusement parks

It's like watching someone you love die slow
Yeah, they're killing her one piece at a time
I know some fools who think I should let go,
But the've never seen Florida through my eyes.

I know you're out there hiding from me
You get harder and harder to find
Every day she keeps slipping away
Florida please don't fade on me now

Florida, I know you're out there hiding from me
You get harder and harder to find
Every day she keeps slipping away
Florida please don't fade on me now
Werewolves Of London - Jimmy Buffett

Lyrics

Werewolves Of London
I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand
Walking through the streets of Soho in the rain
He was looking for the place called Lee Ho Fook's
Going to get a big dish of beef chow mein
Werewolves of London

If you hear him howling around your kitchen door
Better not let him in
Little old lady got mutilated late last night
Werewolves of London again
Werewolves of London

He's the hairy handed gent who ran amuck in Kent
Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair
Better stay away from him
He'll rip your lungs out, Jim
I'd like to meet his tailor
Werewolves of London

Well, I saw Lon Chaney walking with the Queen
Doing the werewolves of London
I saw Lon Chaney, Jr. walking with the Queen
Doing the werewolves of London
I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's
His hair was perfect
Werewolves of London again
Draw blood
Let Your Spirit Fly - Ry Cuming

Lyrics

Let Your Spirit Fly
Let your spirit fly, we can touch the sky
I will surrender to your love

Walking down a crowded avenue
And there are strangers everywhere
But not a face of all the people that I see
Can thrill me like the way you do

You seem so close but yet so far from here
I wanna be right where you are
And I would walk the moon and back if you were mine
I'll never let you go

Let your spirit fly, over the mountains high
Spread your wings like an angel in heaven above
Let your spirit fly, we can touch the sky
I will surrender to your love

Smoother than a summer evening breeze (evening breeze)
You wash away my cares with ease
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Where dreams may come alive

Let your spirit fly, over the mountains high
Spread your wings like an angel in heaven above
Let your spirit fly, we can touch the sky
I will surrender to your love

And I have had my share of heartache and pain (heartache and pain)
Don't wanna face it all again

No, but I can promise you I'll stay for good
Cause love will lead the way

Love will lead the way......
Let your spirit fly, yeah

Let your spirit fly, over the mountains high
Spread your wings like an angel in heaven above
Let your spirit fly, we can touch the sky
I will surrender to your love
I will surrender to your love
Floridays - Jimmy Buffett

Lyrics

FLORIDAYS
Jimmy Buffett
(for Don Blanding, Wobby Weimer & "Groovula")
I come from where the rivers meet the sea
That's part of why I'm so wild and fancy free
I was early into crazy ways
My folks said, "It's just a phase"
They were hoping for better days

Now in my line of work I seem to see a lot more than most
Write 'em down, pass 'em around
It's the gospel from the coast
Reflections, not just replays
Takin' time to escape the maze
Lookin' for better days

I spent a year of my life one night
On the beaches in old Beirut
Seems that all they're aimin' for there
Is to hang around and shoot
Each others' lives away
Bloody winds on a distant bay
they're lookin' for better days

Looking to the left, looking to the right
Looking to the stars to shed some light
Hoping for a breath, hoping for break
Hopin' for the give without the take

The dreamers line the state road
Just to watch the runway show
Slouched behind their steering wheels
They just watch the big jets go
Streakin' through the morning haze
Focal point of a distant gaze
Lookin' for better days

(INSTRUMENTAL)

Pale invaders and tanned crusaders
Are worshipping the sun
On the corner of "walk" and "don't walk"
Somewhere on US 1

I'm back to livin' Floridays
Blue skies and ultra-violet rays
Lookin' for better days

I'm back to livin' Floridays
Blue skies and ultra-violet rays
Lookin' for better days, lookin' for better days
Lookin' for Floridays

Better days, better days
Everybody's lookin' for better days
Somewhere beneath the shining star
Better days, won't you take me to better days
Better days, I sure could use a few better days
Floridays
Coming Around - Brie Larson

Lyrics

Coming Around
From the beginning I was wishing that the first impression would last
But then you came to me with something that was nothing, and you kept coming back
Boy you kept coming back

Trying to get next to me, I don't do all the flattery
I'm telling you stay away, boy you're really driving me crazy
You're still the something that you've got inside and you're trying to show me
Everything I've wanted I'm breaking down
I think I'm coming around
Coming around, coming around
Coming around, coming around

Now I find you on my mind more and more as time goes by
All day, every day boy you're really driving me crazy
You're still the something that you've got inside and you're trying to show me
And every time I touch you it reaches out
I think I'm coming around
Coming around, coming around
Coming around, coming around
Funky Kingston - Toots & The Maytals

Lyrics

Funky Kingston
Hey hey hey hey hey
I want you to believe every word I say
I want you to believe every thing I do
I said music is what I've got baby
And I've got to find some way to make it
Music is what I've got baby
I want you to come on and shake it
Shake it, shake it baby
Oh yeah

Funky funky funky
Funky Kingston is what I've got for you, oh yeah
Funky Kingston, yeah is what I've got for you
Funky Kingston

Watch me now, you watch me now
Played from east to west yeah
I just played from north to south, yeah
All across America people keep on asking me for Funky Kingston
But I ain't got none
Somebody take it away from me
You got to go and fetch one
Funky Kingston
Good Guys Win - Jimmy Buffett

Lyrics

Good Guys Win
So you're looking for a hero
That you can see with your own eyes
When they don't wear the mask and cape
They're hard to recognize

Even though these are cynical times
Bear it in mind

Good guys win
Every once in while
Full grown men
Get to learn from a child
Now and then
Just when you think it won't happen again
The good guys win

Trouble all around us
Dirty tricks at every turn
Seems that we historically
Refuse to live and learn

You start to wonder if all
Hope is gone
You would be wrong

Good guys win
Every once in while
Full grown men
Get to learn from a child.
Now and then
Just when you think it won't happen again
Good guys win.

State of confusion we're so disillusioned
You turn on the news and
Good guys win
Now and then
Just when you think it won't happen again

Good guys win
Every once in while
Full grown men
Get to learn from a child
Now and then
Just when you think it won't happen again
The Good guys win.
Lovely Day - Maroon 5

Lyrics

Lovely Day
When I wake up in the morning, love
And the sunlight hurts my eyes
And something without warning, love
Bears heavy on my mind

Then I look at you
And the world's alright with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be
A lovely day
...lovely day, lovely day, lovely day...

When the day that lies ahead of me
Seems impossible to face
When someone else instead of me
Always seems to know the way

Then I look at you
And the world's alright with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be
A lovely day...

When the day that lies ahead of me
Seems impossible to face
When someone else instead of me
Always seems to know the way

Then I look at you
And the world's alright with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be
A lovely day...
Happy Ending - Original Score

Lyrics

Happy Ending
No more sad times, mad, or bad times,
No more minor keys
Life's for living, sharing, giving,
Life's for you and me

When the going's rough and you've had enough,
Leave your troubles and your woes
Turn the other cheek and forget your grief,
Make a friend out of your foe

Give me a happy ending every time
We'll kiss and make up,
That's a very peaceful sign
Give me a happy ending every time
Don't be unhappy, everything will work out fine.

No more fighting, scratching, biting,
No more police and thieves
All is sweetness, light, and neatness,
Yes sir, no thanks, please

When you had your fill of life's ugly pills
The sadness and the pain
Take the box of pills and attendant ills,
Flush them down the drain

Give me a happy ending every time
We'll kiss and make up,
That's a very peaceful sign
Give me a happy ending every time
Don't be unhappy, everything will work out fine

Everything wil work out fine!
Give me a happy ending every time
We'll kiss and make up,
That's a very peaceful sign
Give me a happy ending every time
Don't be unhappy, everything will work out fine

Give me a happy ending every time
We'll kiss and make up,
That's a very peaceful sign
Give me a happy ending every time
Don't be unhappy, everything will work out fine
