BOWLING FOR SOUP LYRICS - Hang On

"Hang On"



I used to see you every morning

Even when I didn’t want to

You used to like to watch us play downtown

As long as I sang a song for you



[chorus]

But nothing stays the same

And it’s driving me insane

Oh, you know we’ve got it so bad

And nothing you can say

Can make me want to stay

But still your hanging on



You say you never saw this comin’

So why does it always fall on you

I think you call me every time you se a phone

You hang up but I know it’s you

SR-71 LYRICS - All American

"All American"



I never got high the first time I tried

Just like everyone

I know the cigarettes were bold

For a little four foot nothing ten year-old

On hot summer days

We'd go down to the mall

Send security climbin' up the walls

Just like everyone

We were forever young



I am not so original

Never to be cynical

A little unstable

Clinically labeled

Fucked-up all-American

I am totally miserable

Ever to be pigeon-holed

Completely obsessive

Manic depressive

Fucked-up all-American



We lived out our lives like we would never die

Just like everyone

But before Keith went to bed

He put a double barrel shotgun to his head



I am not so original

Never to be cynical

A little unstable

Clinically labeled

Fucked-up all-American

I am totally miserable

Ever to be pigeon-holed

Completely obsessive

Manic depressive

Fucked-up all-American



Smashing bottles and cans

For reasons I don't understand

When I look at the past

It's like staring at pieces of broken glass



I am not so original

Never to be cynical

A little unstable

Clinically labeled

Fucked-up all-American

I am totally miserable

Ever to be pigeon-holed

Completely obsessive

Manic depressive

Fucked-up all-American

GAVIN DEGRAW LYRICS - Dancing Shoes

"Dancing Shoes"



It's so nice to see you

Can we sit and talk for a while?

I have searched forever

I can't imagine anythin' better



Kids up on the stairway

Couples on the sidewalk squares

If I get to your heart soon

I'll call a perfect afternoon



Won't you call my number?

Don't push, but don't hesitate

Wake me from this slumber

Rush me, but leave time to wake



Checkmate on my shoulder

I'm tired of this win or lose

Well, I'm no knight in shinnin' armor

But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes

I'm no pair of dancin' shoes



My patience ran away, take me with you

You keep me holdin' on

Nothin's understood, you're so confusin'

Tell it to me straight



Won't you call my number?

Don't push, but don't hesitate

Wake me from this slumber

Rush me, but leave time to wake

Rush me, but leave time to wake



I got nothin' left to lose

But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes

I got nothin' left to lose

But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes



I got nothin' left to lose

But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes

I got nothin' left to lose

But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes

ONEREPUBLIC LYRICS - Apologize

"Apologize"



[Verse 1]

I'm holdin' on your rope,

Got me ten feet off the ground.

And I'm hearin' what you say,

But I just can't make a sound.

You tell me that you need me,

Then you go and cut me down...

But wait...

You tell me that you're sorry,

Didn't think I'd turn around...

And say...



[Chorus]

That it's too late to apologize.

It's too late...

I said it's too late to apologize.

It's too late.

Yeah!



[Verse 2]

I'd take another chance,

Take a fall, take a shot for you.

I need you like a heart needs a beat,

But it's nothin' new.

I loved you with a fire red,

Now it's turnin' blue...

And you say...

Sorry, like an angel

Heaven let me think was you...

But I'm afraid...



[Chorus]

It's too late to apologize.

It's too late.

I said it's too late to apologize.

It's too late.

Whoa!



[Interlude]



[Chorus]

It's too late to apologize.

It's too late.

I said it's too late to apologize.

It's too late.



I said it's too to apologize. YEAH!

I said it's too late to apologize. YEAH!

I'm holdin' on your rope,

got me ten feet off the ground.

THE GAME LYRICS - We Will Survive

"We Will Survive"



[The Game - Chorus]

We will survive, we’ve been through this too many times

my people are getting stronger they know that we on the rise

we will not live and let die

my niggas on the front line and we all here

hold your head high

so many years, too many tears living this life

this a battle we gotta fight so put your war paint on

a lot of black men died over slavery, civil rights and apartheid

these are the hard times but we will survive



[Verse 1]

It all started 400 years ago, my people in chains

400 years later same bullshit y’all aint changed

you got a jump shot or you rap or play ball

then you can eat in Beverly hills and shop in they mall

who really making calls like my people ain’t determined enough

and in the hood they trying to terminate us

and turn us against each other

got us fighting over colours, brothers

I thought the object was to love one another

we can’t see past the 20 inch rims, bitches and hoes

40 bottles and frequent trips to the liquor store

so how do we raise our children

there’s a new born soul every hour in America

this is not only there’s but our America

the white man made it this way, we never asked for the slavery days

but we still paying for cotton t-shirts our ancestors picked that we hurt

but this is the rebirth



[Chorus]



[Verse 2]

They say the black man will struggle as long as he continues to hustle

and pitch crack from a bucket, these muthafuckers have no idea

they lock us in prison for years

and send us county checks to compensate us for our mothers tears

too many taxes, every 12 checks another w2

President Bush’s way to say fuck you

our day is coming we taking over

how you give us guns when 70% of all Kuwaiti soldiers

you gotta be stupid

don’t ever forget we were African rulers before NBA players and furniture movers

you burnt this I prove it

we don’t want 40 acres no more, college funds and real estate,

keep the Grammy awards, your H2’s, new watches we don’t hate you watch us

me and Marshall’s like Hank Aaron and Babe Ruth

opposite races still chasing the same dream

but when it boils down to everyday life who do I trust? ME!



[Chorus]



[Verse 3]

I will not surrender this is not the ending

turn my back in the dirt this is uncle Sam’s curse

you got a hot verse you on MTV

you can dunk in the 8th grade you on NBC

kids struggling to make grades in school

you run the rock like Barry Sanders in the tenth grade you getting paid at school

and all the old heads that paid their dues we don’t respect that

too worried about where the next Nike air checks at

(?) news rims put on your lexus,

he ain’t registered to vote Al Gore loses the next election

one strike, two strikes, three strikes your gone

25 to life but still life moves on

a wise man told when I was younger Im God’s chosen

he don’t understand so the AK soak him

Black wall street got them open

I try to tell them I’m where hope floats man

the ghetto spokesman



[Chorus]

LEANN RIMES LYRICS - Put A Little Holiday In Your Heart

"Put A Little Holiday In Your Heart"



Feel the cold wind blowing-winter's coming on

'Tis the season, so they say

If you need help believing 'cause your spirit ain't too strong

Hold my hand -- we'll push that cloud away



Put a little holiday in your heart

It'll put a little shuffle in your step

Give you a song that you can sing

With a melody you can't forget

And if you wanna join in a little harmony

To keep the world from tearin' apart

Well you know where to look

Yeah -- you gotta put a little holiday in your heart



There's a man on the corner who doesn't have a name

People pass and turn their heads away

But to share a simple kindness would set there heart aflame

And you'll get more than you'll ever give away.

Put a little holiday in your heart

It'll put a little shuffle in your step

Give you a song that you can sing

With a melody you can't forget

And if you wanna join in a little harmony

To keep the world from tearin' apart

Well you know where to look

Yeah -- you gotta put a little holiday in your heart



It starts with you, it starts with me

This ain't no stranger, he's family and it don't matter if we agree

It all comes down to love



Put a little holiday in your heart

It'll put a little shuffle in your step

Give you a song that you can sing

With a melody you can't forget

And if you wanna join in a little harmony

To keep the world from tearin' apart

Well you know where to look

Yeah -- you gotta put a little holiday in your heart
