DOWN WITH THE POWER

THE WAY YOU ACT YOU’D THINK THAT

YOU DONT LEAD AND ORDINARY LIFE

NO UNDERSTANDING THAT THE FUTURE ISN’T FOR YOU TO DECIDE

YOU CALL MY NAME

(WHAT ARE YOU)

IT ISN’T FRIENDLY

(TRYING TO TELL ME)

YOU ARE INSANE PUT IT DOWN

WE ARE THE SAME

(WHAT DO YOU)

YOU WOULDN’T THINK IT

(WANNA GIVE ME)

IT IS A SHAME PUT IT DOWN, DOWN. DOWN, DOWN

DOWN WITH THE POWER (x3)

PUT IT DOWN

I KNOW JUST WHERE YOU’RE GOING

YOU’RE GONNA TAKE ME FOR A RIDE

WITH YOUR TRUE COLORS SHOWING

THE TRUTH IS NOT FOR YOU TO HIDE

YOU WONDER WHY

(WHAT ARE YOU)

YOU FEEL SO GUILTY

(TRYING TO TELL ME)

AND THEN YOU LIE PUT IT DOWN

AND THEN YOU TRY

(WHAT DO YOU)

YOU TRY TO CHANGE ME

(WANNA GIVE ME)

YOU’RE ON THE SLY PUT IT DOWN

TALK TO ME

TALK TO ME

YOU GOT THE MESSAGE BUT YOU DONT WANNA LISTEN

YOU TRY TO LOOK THE OTHER WAY

YOUR INTERPRETATION IS THE ONLY THING MISSING

I THINK I’VE GOT TO GET IT STRAIGHT

WHY DONT YOU TALK TO ME

I THINK YOU BETTER TALK TO ME

I WON’T COMPETE FOR SOME OF YOUR ATTENTION

COS EVERYBODY ELSE IS DOWN

I THINK YOU NEED TO FIND YOUR OWN SALVATION

COS THAT IS WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT

I KEEP ON KNOCKIN BUT NOBODY WANTS TO ANSWER

SEEMS LIKE THEIR AINT NOBODY HOME

I’LL COME BACK LATER WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN

BUT YOU WILL NEVER BE ALONE,

AS LONG AS

IN THE MORNING

IN THE EVENING

WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN

TOMORROW

CLOSE THE DOOR

CLOSE THE WINDOW

TURN OUT THE LIGHTS

EVERY NIGHT

YOU TURNED MY LIFE AROUND

YOU TURNED MY LIFE AROUND

 

THERE IS NO ONE QUITE LIKE YOU BABY

NO ONE MADE ME FEEL THE THINGS OF A DREAM   

COME TRUE

THINGS WILL NEVER BE THE SAME BABY

CAN’T GO BACK TO LIFE BEFORE THE LOVE WE

SHARED

IT MAY BE THAT WE ONLY HAVE TODAY BUT

TOMORROW IS A MILLION MILES AWAY

BECAUSE YOU TURNED MY LIFE AROUND

 

 

YOU’VE GIVEN ME A REASON WHY

NO MORE LONG AND LONELY NIGHTS

BABY YOU AND YOU ALONE

YOU HAVE GIVEN ME THE STRENGTH TO CARRY ON

AND THOUGH I KNOW THAT WORDS CAN NEVER SAY

I JUST WANNA THANK YOU ANYWAY

BECAUSE YOU TURNED MY LIFE AROUND

 

AND EVEN THOUGH YOU TRY TO WALK AWAY

LOVE GETS STRONGER EVERY DAY

BECAUSE YOU TURNED MY LIFE AROUND.

THEY CAN’T STOP TOMORROW

THEY CAN’T STOP TOMORROW
Everybody’s running from responsibility
They don’t like it
Everybody makes up for it consequentially
They don’t know it
If you only knew The Truth
You would suffer less than you do, cos
THEY CANT STOP TOMORROW (X3)
Better not turn your face away
Everybody talks about the problem here today
They are lying
Simplify the answer and tell me I’m the one to blame but
I ain’t buying
If we only knew The Truth
We would suffer less than we do cos
THEY CANT STOP TOMORROW (X3)
Might as well throw you’re lies away
Weezy thinks tomorrow everything will be alright
Says the Lord will solve it all she wont put up a fight
So everyday she wakes up early to the same old situation
She says it’s cool but I know she is running out of patience
She only knows the truth and she only knows that it hurts but
THEY CANT STOP TOMORROW…..
Better not throw your love away

SUNDAY’S CHILD

SUNDAY’S CHILD
You taught him early to recite every line
And then one day he said to your surprise
“If I had a wish, I know just who I would be
Everybody’s got a day, ain’t nothin left for me, so tell me
Why is life that way?”
Why can’t I be Sunday’s Child
I wish I was Sunday’s Child
Sunday’s Child
Woke up this morning in the middle of a fight, how can you
Ship me off to school when you keep me up all night
You tell me It’s cool, But I know something just ain’t right
I wish I had a day that we could keep it out of sight, and take it
Take it all away
I wish I was Sunday’s Child
Will you let me be Sunday’s Child
Sunday’s Child
Early Christmas morning down the stairs he creeps
Over by the tree pitter patter little feet
Don’t want no toys and he don’t want no sweets
He just wants a day but this time for keeps, and make it
Make it stay always
He wants to be Sunday’s Child
Will you let him be Sunday’s Child
Sunday’s Child.

WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN

WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN
Grandma’s in the kitchen
Mama’s gotta work today
Ain’t nobody left to dry your tears
You got so much to live for
Tomorrow’s another day
Your gonna grow up to be a big somebody, someday
When the sun goes down, ain’t nobody gonna cry no more
When the sun goes down, ain’t nobody gonna lie no more
When the sun goes down, there are gonna be a whole lotta changes
When the sun goes down.
You live the way they taught you
You don’t know any other way
So you base your love upon a memory
You got so much to wait for
You gotta live it anyway
You know your baby’s gonna come back home someday
CHORUS
The life you can’t get used to
It’s like it wants to slip away
And you really don’t wanna make it stay
You’ve got too much to pray for and
You know you’re gonna get it all
When the sun, When the sun, When the sun goes down. WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN
When the sun goes down, ain’t nobody gonna pay no more wait no more
You’ve got so
CHORUS
