"SMASH THE MIRROR" (TOMMY)

THE WHO 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mexcOJOnxpU 

 You don't answer my call
With even a nod or a twitch
But you gaze at your own reflection!
You don't seem to see me
But I think you can see yourself.
How can the mirror affect you?

Can you hear me
Or do I surmise?
That you fear me can you feel my temper
RISE.

Do you hear or fear or
Do I smash the mirror.
Do you hear of fear or
Do I smash the mirror? SMASH!

 

"LOVE IN A VOID"

SIOUXSIE AND THE BANSHEES 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDt-PD7y4To

Too many fools blocking my motion
Clouding my eyes must be the potion
Spots on my eyes must be the lotion

Love in a void it's so numb
Avoid in love it's so dumb
Love in a void

Too many bigots for my liking
Too many critics too few writing
Rabid dogs that aren't biting

Love in a void it's so numb
Avoid in love it's so dumb
Love in a void

Jaded reputation on which you're staking
Lots of money for the making
For all the stars they're just faking

Love in a void it's so numb
Avoid in love it's so dumb
Love in a void

"I CAN'T EXPLAIN"

THE WHO 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3h--K5928M 

Got a feeling inside (can't explain)
It's a certain kind (can't explain)
I feel hot and cold (can't explain)
Yeah, down in my soul, yeah (can't explain)

I said (can't explain)
I'm feeling good now, yeah, but (can't explain)

Dizzy in the head and I'm feeling blue
The things you've said, well, maybe they're true
I'm gettin' funny dreams again and again
I know what it means, but

Can't explain
I think it's love
Try to say it to you
When I feel blue

But I can't explain (can't explain)
Yeah, hear what I'm saying, girl (can't explain)

Dizzy in the head and I'm feeling bad
The things you've said have got me real mad
I'm gettin' funny dreams again and again
I know what it means but

Can't explain
I think it's love
Try to say it to you
When I feel blue

But I can't explain (can't explain)
Forgive me one more time, now (can't explain)

I said I can't explain, yeah
(Ooh) you drive me out of my mind
(Ooh) yeah, I'm the worrying kind, babe
(Ooh) I said I can't explain

"WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN"

THE WHO 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHhrZgojY1Q 

We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgment of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
And I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again

Change it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fall that's all
But the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
And I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
No, no!

I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
For I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do ya?

There's nothing in the street
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Is now the parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!

Yeah!

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

 

"PINBALL WIZARD"

THE WHO 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AKbUm8GrbM 

Ever since I was a young boy
I've played the silver ball
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played them all
But I ain't seen nothing like him
In any amusement hall
That deaf dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pin ball!

He stands like a statue,
Becomes part of the machine
Feeling all the bumpers
Always playing clean
He plays by intuition,
The digit counters fall
That deaf dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pin ball!

He's a pin ball wizard
There has got to be a twist
A pin ball wizard,
S'got such a supple wrist

How do you think he does it? I don't know!
What makes him so good?

He ain't got no distractions
Can't hear those buzzers and bells
Don't see lights a flashin'
Plays by sense of smell
Always gets a replay
Never seen him fall
That deaf dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pin ball

I thought I was
The Bally table king
But I just handed
My pin ball crown to him

Even on my favorite table
He can beat my best
His disciples lead him in
And he just does the rest
He's got crazy flipper fingers
Never seen him fall
That deaf dumb and blind kind
Sure plays a mean pin ball!

Thruppence and sixpence every day
Just to drive to my baby
Thruppence and sixpence each day
'Cause I drive my baby every way

Magic bus, Magic Bus, Magic Bus
Magic bus, Magic Bus, Magic Bus
Magic bus, Magic Bus, Magic Bus
Magic bus, Magic Bus, Magic Bus

I said, now I've got my Magic Bus (too much, Magic Bus)
I said, now I've got my Magic Bus (too much, Magic Bus)

"HAPPY JACK"

THE WHO

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JY3hUdK56IM 

Happy Jack wasn't old, but he was a man
He lived in the sand at the Isle of Man
The kids would all sing, he would take the wrong key
So they rode on his head on their furry donkey

The kids couldn't hurt Jack
They tried and tried and tried
They dropped things on his back
And lied and lied and lied and lied and lied

But they couldn't stop Jack, or the waters lapping
And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy

But they couldn't stop Jack, or the waters lapping
And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy

The kids couldn't hurt Jack
They tried and tried and tried
They dropped things on his back
And lied and lied and lied and lied and lied

But they couldn't stop Jack, or the waters lapping
And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy

I saw ya!

"BEHIND BLUE EYES"

THE WHO

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMrImMedYRo 

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

And if I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
And if I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

"CALIFORNIA EARTHQUAKE"

THE MAMAS AND THE PAPAS 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2Zw9Tj1Y6g 

I heard they exploded the underground blast
What they say's gonna happen, gonna happen at last
That's the way it appears

They tell me the fault line runs right through here
So that may be, that may be, what's gonna happen, gonna happen to me
That's the the way it appears

They tell me the fault line runs right through here

Atlantis will rise, sunset Boulevard will fall
Where the beach use to be won't be nothin' at all
That's the way it appears

They tell me the fault line runs right through here
So that may be, that may be, what's gonna happen gonna happen to me
That's the way it appears

They tell me the fault line runs right through here

They tell me the fault line runs right through here

"TWELVE THIRTY (YOUNG GIRLS ARE COMING TO THE CANYON)"

THE MAMAS AND THE PAPAS

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xa7NWRJjPQ 

I used to live in New York City
Everything there was dark and dirty
Outside my window was a steeple
With a clock that always said twelve thirty

Young girls are coming to the canyon
And in the mornings I can see them walking
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn
And I can't keep myself from talking

At first so strange to feel so friendly
To say good morning and really mean it
To feel these changes happening in me
But not to notice till I feel it

Young girls are coming to the canyon
And in the mornings I can see them walking
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn
And I can't keep myself from talking

Cloudy waters cast no reflection
Images of beauty lie there stagnant
Vibrations bounce in no direction
And lie there shattered into fragments

Young girls are coming to the canyon
(Young girls are in the canyon)
And in the mornings I can see them walking
(In the mornings I can see them walking)
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn
(Can no longer keep my blinds drawn)
And I can't keep myself from talking

"LOOK THROUGH MY WINDOW"

THE MAMAS AND THE PAPAS 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrSIfO5AQHc 

And the rain beats on my roof
And it does not ask for proof

It's not that lovers are unkind
She always said there'd come a time
When one would leave and one stay behind
We both knew people sometimes change
And lovers sometimes rearrange
And nothing's quite as sure as change
And the rain beats on my roof

Look through my window to the street below
See the people hurryin' by
With someone to meet, some place to go
And I know I should let go

She always said I'm not like you
When love is dead for me it's through
And I will find and love someone new

Look through my window to the street below
See the people hurryin' by
With someone to meet, some place to go
And I know I should let go

I must admit she knew her mind
And it will not take her long to find
Another place where the sun will shine

And the rain beats on my roof
If I still require proof
Well the rain beats on my roof (she's gone)
If I still require proof (she's gone)
Well the rain beats on my roof (look through my window)

"THE GOOD TIMES ARE COMING"

CASS ELLIOT

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=004G-z33DWw 

I'm not about to come unhinged
When everything goes wrong
A fact is something to be faced
But not for very long

The good times are coming
They'll be comin' real soon
And I'm not just pitchin' pennies at the moon

The good times are coming
When they come, I'll be there
With my both feet firmly planted in the air

There's gonna be a place for us
A place where we belong
To stand outside just looking in
Has got to be all wrong

The good times are coming
They'll be comin' real soon
And I'm not just pitchin' pennies at the moon
The good times are coming
When they come, I'll be there
With my both feet firmly planted way up there
In the air

Got a feelin' that I'm wasting time on you babe
Got a feelin' that you're been untrue
I got a feelin' that you're stealin'
All the love I thought I was giving to you
Baby, it's¯ true
Got a feelin' that you're playing some game with me babe
Got a feelin' that you just can't see
If you're entertaining any thought that you're gaining
By causing me all of this pain and making me blue
The joke on you
When I get to feeling that you're stealing love
And I don't know why, baby
It makes me so discouraged
I finally get the courage not to cry, babe
Or even try, babe
Got a feelin' that I'm wasting time on you babe
Got a feelin' that you're been untrue
I got a feelin' that you're stealin'
All the love I thought I was giving to you
Baby, it's true; the joke's on you
Baby it's true; the joke's on you

I pretend to see the sky and I can
Hummin' slowly to myself

Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream

Valentines made of glitter and glue
I promise to write, to remember you
Sailin' on the sea
As green as the sky that I can see

Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream

When the weather is warm
I feel like goin' home
Feel like gettin' worn out
Feel like havin' a bad spell
Everyone gets excited about a little music
Well don't you abuse it
Come get or you'll lose it

When everyone's a drag
I feel like goin' home
Feel like makin' waves
And isn't life great, yeah

When the weather is warm
I feel like goin' home
Feel like goin' home
Feel like goin' home

Need to be down real low
I feel like goin' home
I feel like goin' home
I feel like goin' home
I feel like goin' home

Well don't you wanna go
I feel like goin' home
I feel like goin' home

"FOR THE TURNSTILES"

THE BE GOOD TANYAS

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCyk5JWM3B0

All the sailors
With their seasick mamas
Hear the sirens on the shore,
Singin' songs
For pimps with tailors
Who charge ten dollars
At the door.
You can really
Learn a lot that way
It will change you
In the middle of the day.
Though your confidence
May be shattered,
It doesn't matter.
All the great explorers
Are now in granite laid,
Under white sheets
For the great unveiling
At the big parade.
You can really
Learn a lot that way
It will change you
In the middle of the day.
Though your confidence
May be shattered,
It doesn't matter.
All the bush league batters
Are left to die
On the diamond.
In the stands
The home crowd scatters
For the turnstiles,
For the turnstiles,
For the turnstiles.

"CHAMBERS"

TAMINO 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQuAP_BhiZ0 

I've given my words to you
I'd do it again
You know them by heart by now
You have them within

Oh, would you still offer your embrace
If it's another place you'd find me in?
If it's ours and ours to use
How can we refuse a cease of fire?
Between your heart and mine

Well I'll surrender first tonight
In your false withdrawal
You'll have me rise, you'll have me fall
I won't be worthy of this fight
In your feigned retreat
I'll follow blindly in defeat

I've given my heart to you
You know its ways

Yes, in its chambers you have lived
Though lately you have come to realize
That for the bullets that you fire
I'm the main supplier
I'm the one
The trigger for your gun

Well I'll surrender first tonight
In your false withdrawal
You'll have me rise, you'll have me fall
I won't be worthy of this fight
In your feigned retreat
I'll follow blindly in defeat

My fear is dead
I lost it in you
I do hear you
I do fear you
I do need you

"TUMMY"

TAMINO 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HB6JjgEubrk 

I'm no longer found
Bugs got all my yummy
Passed out in the yard
Spiders on my tummy

I'm no longer found
Sex got all my pride
I'm no longer found
Passed out in the art of angels
Disable
I saw someone change the labels
I've seen it
I saw someone change the meaning

Once you were lost
Like we almost
Like we almost, wouldn't love
Can't you help it, thinking of me, think you love me
It's like you must, like you almost
Like you almost haven't lost
For making something of me, something of me

Beating so profound
These shoes got all my boogie
Crawling in the yard
Acid went right for me

I'm no longer found
Love got all my dime
I'm no longer found
Flying in the sky like Cupid
Hypocrite
I saw someone change the habits
I've seen it
A sudden change of spirit

Once you were lost
Like we almost
Like we almost, wouldn't love
Can't you help it, thinking of me, think you love me
It's like you must, like you almost
Like you almost haven't lost
For making something of me, something of me

Lost
Like we almost
Like we almost wouldn't love
Well it made something
Something of me, something of me

"EVERY PORE"

TAMINO

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozhaDWrIlHg 

Darling, be by the door
Let your heart in, and I'll kiss every pore
If I could always have you around
There's a tune here, but it has no sound

But your heart is where mine lies

Darling just calm me with your voice
Let your heart sing, how I always enjoy
When you say 'always' is not a word
You think love is a bit absurd

But your heart is where mine lies

"PERSEPHONE"

TAMINO 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeaBJfzTKl8 

Yes my love, I confess to you
I am only here to break your heart in two
The very flower you chose that day
Its only task was to decay
You see?

When I watched your first bathing
I only warned you with a lowered voice
"Be wary of my river's undertow
It flows with water from the coldest source"
Did you hear?

And then I made sure
You would always return
You still know of dawn
But you always return

When you hid under my black wings
They couldn't have protected you from anything
Once in flight they would have let go
You would have once again wound up below
Only broken

Indeed, it's wrong to keep you near me
One could call me cruel and deceiving
But in your sacred air I am full of light
Your loving arms are the true delight
To which I'm lost

And you've noticed it
There is something right here
You have come to love, yes you've come to love
What you always will fear

Yes, my love, I confess to you
I've nothing but the means to break your heart in two
My part in yours may seem important now
But with every spring it will seem so small
Just for now I am your fall
I am your fall
I am your fall

"EACH TIME"

TAMINO

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8uK92NmZ8Z0 

On this precious evening, quiet and still
Pale stars shine upon a bed of dark red flowers
It suits them like it suits us

It's where I start believing in a world for me
An atmosphere still enveloped by young love
And all that it moves by

It's there you'll find me, stretched out in the fields
Hope you don't mind me, staying where I please

To seal this beauty
It ain't real till it's sure
Let me feel the thrill of it
Each time again

By a kind deceiving I am shown only what is pure
How can it endure, how can it last some more

In this perfect circle, I've come to know the face of my defeat
It's always worth repeating
Somehow it is worth it

It's there you'll find me, stretched out in the fields
Hope you don't mind me, staying where I please

To seal this beauty
It ain't real till it's sure
Let me feel the thrill of it
Each time again

How, how can it endure
How can I just make it last some more

To seal this beauty
It ain't real till it's sure
Let me feel the thrill of it
Each time again
