Junk
Paul McCartney (1970)
Motor cars, handlebars
Bicycles for two
Broken-hearted jubilee
Parachutes, Army boots
Sleeping bags for two
Sentimental jamboree
"Buy, buy"
Says the sign in the shop window
"Why, why?"
Says the junk in the yard
Candlesticks, building bricks
Something old and new
Memories for you and me
"Buy, buy"
Says the sign in the shop window
"Why, why?"
Says the junk in the yard
Smile
Grant Lee Phillips (2002)
You take the air in
You take the whole room in, ya
Hold it for all time
Hold it in your heart like amber
You take the night in
You take the consequences major in your life
Not by what is safe to wager
Smile, there's no regrets
Layers wash through our hands and
Then you never see tomorrow comin'
You only feel the wake of it
Smile, there's no release
This flood of life won't cease
To leave you lying in wild amazement
Or reeling in the wake of it
You take the grandeur
And I'll take to wondering
The error of my ways
I could ponder this forever
Smile, there's no regrets (no regrets)
Layers wash through our hands and
Then you never see tomorrow comin'
You only feel the wake of it
Smile, there's no release (no release)
This flood of life won't cease
To leave you lying in wild amazement
Or reeling in the wake of it, oh no
Smile, there's no regrets (no regrets)
Layers wash through our hands and
Then you never see tomorrow comin' (never see tomorrow)
You only feel the wake of it (you only feel the wake of it)
Smile, there's no release (no release)
This flood of life won't cease
To leave you lying in wild amazement
Or reeling in the wake of it, oh no
Smile... smile.... smile.... smile....
Save Me
Aimee Mann (1999)
You look like
A perfect fit
For a girl in need
Of a tourniquet
But can you save me?
Why don't you save me?
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks that suspect
They could never love anyone
'Cause I can tell
You know what it's like
A long farewell
Of a hunger strike
But can you save me?
Come on and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks that suspect
They could never love anyone
You struck me dumb
Like radium
Like Peter Pan or Superman
You will come
To save me
Why don't you save me?
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks who suspect
They could never love anyone
Except the freaks that suspect
They could never love anyone
But the freaks that suspect
They could never love anyone
Come on and save me
Why don't you save me?
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks that suspect
They could never love anyone
Except the freaks who suspect
They could never love anyone
Except the freaks
Who could never love anyone
