Coldplay-A Rush of Blood to the Head
He said I’m gonna buy this place and burn it down
I’m gonna put it six feet underground
He said I’m gonna buy this place and watch it fall
Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls
Oh I’m gonna buy this place and start a fire
Stand here until I fill all your hearts desires
Because I’m gonna buy this place and see it burn
Do back the things it did to you in return
Ah,ah,ah
He said oh I’m gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
Oh and I’m gonna buy this place, that’s what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head

And honey
All the movements you’re starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you mean to go on
Start as you mean to go on

He said I’m gonna buy this place and see it go
Stand here beside me baby watch the orange glow
Some’ll laugh and some just sit and cry
But you just sit down there and you wonder why
So I’m gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
I’m gonna buy this place, that’s what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head


And honey
All the movements you’re starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They said start as you mean to go on
As you mean to go on, as you mean to go on

So meet me by the bridge, meet me by the lane
When am I going to see that pretty face again
Meet me on the road, meet me where I said
Blame it all upon
A rush of blood to the head

Coldplay-Everything's Not Lost
If you ever feel neglected,
If you ever think all is lost,
I’ll be counting up my demons, yeah,
Hoping everything’s not lost,
Everything’s not lost,
When I’m counting up my demons.
There’s always one for everyday,
With the good ones on my shoulder,
I drove the other ones away.
If you ever feel neglected,
If you think all is lost,
I’ll be counting up my demons, yeah,
Hoping everything’s not lost.
When you thought it was over,
You could feel it all around,
Everybody’s out to get you,
Don’t you let it drag you down.
Cos if you eve feel neglected,
If you think that all is lost,
I’ll be counting all the demons, yeah.
Singing out oh yeah
Singing out oh yeah
Singing out oh yeah
Everything’s not lost,
Come on yeah, oh yeah, come on yeah,
Everything’s not lost,

Oh yeah, come on yeah,
Everything’s not lost
Sing out yeah
Come on yeah x2
Everything’s not lost
Come on yeah, oh yeah
Sing out yeah
Everything’s not lost

Coldplay-Spies
I awake to find no peace of mind,
I said, how do you live as a fugitive?

Down here where I cannot see so clear.

I said, what do I know?
Show me the right way to go,
And the spies came out of the water,
But you’re feeling so bad cos you know,
And the spies hide out in every corner,
But you can’t touch them no,
Cos they’re all spies, they’re all spies.

I awake to see that no one is free,
We’re all fugitives,
Look at the way we live.
Down here, I cannot sleep from fear no.

I said, which way do I turn?
I forget everything I learn,
But the spies came out of the water,
But you’re feeling so bad cos you know,
And the spies hide out in every corner,
But you can’t touch them though,
Cos they’re all spies, they’re all spies.

And if we don’t hide here,
They’re going to find us,
If we don’t hide now,
They’re going to catch us where we sleep,
And if we don’t hide here,
They’re going to find us.

Coldplay-Yellow
Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow.
I came along,
I wrote a song for you,
And all the things you do,
And it was called "yellow."
So then I took my turn,
Oh what a thing to have done,
And it was all "yellow."
Your skin
Oh yeah, your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
You know, you know I love you so,
You know I love you so.
I swam across,
I jumped across for you,
Oh what a thing to do.
Cos you were all "yellow,"
I drew a line,
I drew a line for you,
Oh what a thing to do,
And it was all "yellow."
Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
And you know for you,
I’d bleed myself dry for you,
I’d bleed myself dry.
It’s true, look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine.
Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And all the things that you do.

Queens of the Stone Age-Song for the Dead
It’s late enough to go drivin
And see what’s mine
That’s a study of dying
How to do it right
You’re a holy roller
Get your bed in the loose
If you’re hanging around
I’m holdin the noose

Come a little bit closer
And get on tight
In a hurse rollin over
Just a track in the line
Fuck it

Come on, let’s go drivin
Come on, let’s take a little ride
That’s the study of dying
How to do it right

Queens of the Stone Age-The Sky is Fallin'
The sky is falling
Human race that we run
It left me crawling
Staring straight at the sun
Only a moment I notice
Every dog has his day
I paid attention
Cost me so much to today

For so long
I saw only wrong
But now to remind
It’s a waste of time

Close your eyes and see the skies are falling

I wanted something
Nothing blank I don’t know
It’s all deflecting
Stones are easy to throw
Only a moment I notice
Hours, days left behind
Of wasted, useless
Selfless, none of a kind

For so long
I saw only wrong
But now to remind
Not to go back to the low
That has drained my life so low
That has drained my life so low
That has drained my life so low

Close your eyes and see the skies are falling

Queens of the Stone Age-First It Giveth
I’m in you
You’re in me
I can’t tell

You’re so cruel
More than me
It is true
That’s right

Loyal to
Only you
Up your sleeve

I want some (come on, take it)
Of all of you (it’s yours)
Trickin me

First it giveth
Then it taketh away

I would beg
I would plead
I would shake

On a hook
Dangling
By the way

I’m so young
And beautiful
(that’s right)
(I’m slick)
I’m no fool

Time goes by
Tables turn
Now I know

First it giveth
Then it taketh away

Queens of the Stone Age-No One Knows
We get some rules to follow
That and this
These and those
No one knows

We get these pills to swallow
How they stick
In your throat
Tastes like gold

Oh, what you do to me
No one knows

And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
Ahh

I journey through the desert
Of the mind
With no hope
I found low

I drift along the ocean
Dead lifeboats in the sun
And come undone

Pleasently caving in
I come undone

And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool and mine
Ahhh

Heaven smiles above me
What a gift there below
But no one knows

A gift that you give to me
No one knows

Queens of the Stone Age-Mosquito Song
I know, I know the sun is hot
Mosquitos come suck your blood
Leave you there all alone
Just skin and bone
When you walk among the trees
Listening to the leaves
The further I go the less I know
The less I know

Where will you run?
Where will you hide?
Lullabies
To paralyze

Fat and soft, pink and weak
Foot and thigh, tongue and cheek
You know I'm told they swallow you whole
Skin and bone
Cutting boards and hanging hooks
Bloody knives, cooking books
Promising you won't feel a thing
At all

Swallow and chew
Eat you alive
All of us food that hasn't died
And the light says

Somehow they pick and pluck
Tenderize bone to dust
The sweetest grease, finest meat you'll ever taste
Taste, taste
So you scream, whine, and yell
Supple sounds of dinner bells
We all will feed the worms and trees So don't be shy

Swallow and chew
Eat you alive
All of us food that hasn't died

Radiohead-Bones
I don’t wanna a be krippled kracked
Shoulders wrists knees and back
Ground to dust and ash
Crawling on all fours.
When you’ve got to feel it in your bones.
Now I can’t climb the stairs
Pieces missing everywhere
Prozak painkillersss.
When you’ve got to feel it in your bones.
And I used to fly like peter pan
All the children flew when I touched their hands

Radiohead-Just
Can’t get the stink off,
He’s been hanging around for days.
Comes like a comet,
Suckered you but not your friends.
One day he’ll get to you,
Teach you how to be a holy cow.

Don’t get my sympathy hanging out the 15th floor.
You’ve changed the locks 3 times,
He still comes reeling through the door.
And soon he’ll get to you,
Teach you how to get to purest hell.

You do it to yourself you do
And that’s what really hurts is
You do it to yourself just you,
You and no-one else
You do it to yourself

Radiohead-Black Star
I get home from work and you’re still standing in your dressing gown,
Well what am I to do?
I know all the things around your head and what they do to you.
What are we coming to?
What are we gonna do?

Blame it on the black star,
Blame in on the falling sky,
Blame in on the satellite, that beams me home.

The trouble words of a troubled mind, I try to understand what is eating you.
I try to stay awake, but it’s 58 hours since that I last slept with you.
What are we coming to?
I just don’t know anymore

Blame it on the black star,
Blame in on the falling sky,
Blame in on the satellite, that beams me home.

I get on the train and I just stand about now that I don’t think of you.
I keep falling over, I keep passing out, when I see a face like you.
What am I coming to?
I’m gonna melt down.

Blame it on the black star,
Blame in on the falling sky,
Blame in on the satellite, that beams me home

Radiohead-Iron Lung
Faith.. you’re driving me away
You do it everyday
You don’t mean it but it hurts like hell.
My brain.. says I’m recieving pain
A lack of oxygen from my life support
My iron lung.

We’re.. to young to fall asleep
To cynical to speak
We are loosing it, can’t you tell?
We scratch.. our eternal itch
Out 20th century bitch
And we are grateful of our
Iron lung.

Suck.. suck your teenage thumb
Toilet trained and dumb
When the power runs out, we’ll just hum.
This.. is our new song
Just like the last one
At total waste of time.
My iron lung

(the headshrinkers they want everything)
(my uncle bill, my belisha beacon)

And if you’re frightened, you can be frightened
You can be x ok!!
Anf if you’re frightened, you can be frightened
You can be x-ok!!


(the headshrinkers they want everything)
(my uncle bill, my belisha beacon)

Radiohead-Fake Plastic Trees
Her green plastic watering can
For her fake chinese rubber plant
In fake plastic earth.
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plants
Just to get rid of itself.
And it wears her out, it wears her out
It wears her out, it wears her out.

She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns.
He used to do surgery
For girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins.
And it wears him out, it wears him out
It wears him out, it wears him out.

She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love.
But I can’t help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run
And it wears me out, it wears me out
It wears me out, it wears me out.

And if I could be who you wanted
If I could be who you wanted,
All the time, all the time, ohhh... ohh...

Radiohead-Pyramid Song
I jumped in the river and what did I see?
Black-eyed angels swam with me
A moon full of stars and astral cars
All the things I used to see
All my lovers were there with me
All my past and futures
And we all went to heaven in a little row boat
There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt

I jumped into the river
Black-eyed angels swam with me
A moon full of stars and astral cars
And all the things I used to see
All my lovers were there with me
All my past and futures
And we all went to heaven in a little row boat
There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt

There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt
There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt

Radiohead-Street Spirit (Fade Out)
Rows of houses all bearing down on me
I can feel their blue hands touching me
All these things in all positions
All these things will one day take control
And fade out again and fade out

This machine will will not communicate these thoughts
And the strain I am under
Be a world child form a circle before we all go under
And fade out again and fade out again

Cracked eggs dead birds
Scream as they fight for life
I can feel death can see it’s beady eyes
All these things into frution
All these things we’ll one day swallow whole
And fade out again and fade out again.

Radiohead-The Bends
Where do we go from here?
The words are coming out all wierd
Where are you now when I need you?
Alone on an aeroplane
Falling asleep against the window pane
My blood will thicken.

I need to wash myself again to hide all the dirt and pain
I’d be scared that there’s nothing underneath
And who are my real friends?
Have they all got the bends?
Am I really sinking this low?

My baby’s got the bends
We don’t have any real friends
I’m just lying in a bar with my drip feed on
Talking to my girlfriend waiting for something to happen
And I wish it was the sixties
I wish I could be happy
I wish
I wish
I wish that something would happen..

Where do we go from here?
The words are coming out all wierd
Where are you now when I need you?
They brought in the cia
The tanks and the whole marines to blow me away
To blow me sky high.

My baby’s got the bends
We don’t have any real friends
I’m just lying in a bar with my drip feed on
Talking to my girlfriend waiting for something to happen
And I wish it was the sixties
I wish I could be happy
I wish
I wish
I wish that something would happen

I want to live and breathe
I want to be part of the human race

Off I go for a walk.
