I Was A Kamikaze Pilot - Hoodoo Gurus
(Dave Faulkner)

I was a, was a kamikaze pilot
They gave me a plane - I couldn't fly it home.
Taught how to take off, I don't know how to land.
They say it doesn't matter and I just cannot understand.
I was a kamikaze pilot,
They gave me a plane - I couldn't fly it home.

Left my happy homeland in a Zero,
I got engine trouble so I couldn't be a hero
(Do you think I care?).
Now I'll keep my two feet on the ground
'Cos when you're in the clouds
Everybody tries to shoot you down
I was a kamikaze pilot,
They gave me a plane - I couldn't fly it home

On an island there ain't too much to do
Look after number one 'cos I think I can see
Lee Marvin chasin' after you.
I was a kamikaze pilot
They gave me a plane - I couldn't fly it home.

Cherry blossoms falling down.

I Want My Baby Back - Jimmy Cross

I want my baby back
Gotta have my baby back
I miss her oh so much
Can't live without her touch

[Spoken]
I don't hardly know where to begin.  I remember we were cruising home from the 
Beatles concert.  I'd had such a wonderful evening, sitting there watching my 
baby screaming, and tearing her hair out, and carrying on.  She was so full of life.  
Then, well, we were about three miles from home when all of a sudden it started to 
rain.  And I do mean rain.  I couldn't hardly see nothing.  Well, we kept driving for 
about another mile when all of a sudden I see this stalled car right smack in front 
of me.  Well, I wasn't about to slam on the brakes 'cause I didn't have none to 
start with.  So I swerved to the left.  And what do I see - some mushhead on a 
motorcycle headin' right at us.  And I knew at last me and my baby were about 
to meet the leader of the

[Crash sounds]
pack

Well, when I come to, I looked around
And there was the leader
And there was the pack
And over there was my baby
And over there was my baby
And way over there was my baby

I want my baby back
Gotta have my baby back
I miss her oh so much
Can't live without her touch

[Spoken]
It's been many months now since that fateful night.  And you know something, 
I've tried.  Believe me, I have tried.  But I just can't make without my baby.  So 
I've decided I'm going to have her back one way or another.  Oh, baby, I 
dig you so much.  Hot dang, pay dirt.

[Digging and creaking]
I've got my baby back
Now, I've got my baby back
I love her oh so much
Can't live without her touch

I've got my baby back

Indian Wedding - Roy Orbison
(Orbison)

There once was an Indian brave by the name of Yellow Hand
He fell in love with a maiden know as White Sands
They vowed their love would last forever more
Then came the day that they had waited for.

Yellow Hand brought her a golden feather
White Sands said a prayer for good weather
The ceremonial dance grew loud and strong
Then Yellow Hand began their wedding song.

Oooooh Oooooh Oooh Ooooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Tonight, tonight, We will be one
We'll walk in the land of the midnight sun
Oh White Sands, come hold my lonely hand.

Then they left the warmth of the raging fire
And rode into the hills climbing higher
And suddenly the snow came swirling down
They were lost the trail could not be found.

Oooooh Oooooh Oooh Ooooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Tonight, tonight We will be one
We'll walk in the land of the midnight sun
Oh White Sands, Come hold my lonely hand.

They never returned from Paradise
They went to their places in the sky
And the old ones still say when the snowflakes fly
If you'll listen close you'll hear him cry:

Oooooh Oooooh Oooh Ooooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Tonight, tonight We will be one
We'll walk in the land of the midnight sun
Oh White Sands, Come hold my lonely hand. 

"I Love You" by Black Flag from My War

I put my fist through the door 
I hate myself for you 
I love you 
Suspicion rules my very soul 
My knife is sharp, 
My thoughts are cold 
I love you I love you 
Because, I love you 

I can't talk, I can't think 
My feelings burn inside of me 
I love you 
I run through the door, to the liquor store
The doors are closed, you're catching crows (?)  
I love you I love you 
Because, I love you 

I practice my knife, I feel the power 
I look in the mirror and I want to destroy her 
I love you 
I gave you my life, but what did I get? 
Now its time to take it back 
I love you I love you 
Because, I love you 

I hear a car, your footsteps outside 
Knife in hand, love in heart 
Sweating - I wait 
I love you 
You screamed, you bled, you laid on the floor 
But now I know you'll leave me no more 
I love you I love you 
Because, I love you.

I Hold Your Hand In Mine
by Tom Lehrer
Album: Songs & More Songs By Tom Lehrer

I hold your hand in mine...

I hold your hand in mine, dear 
I press it to my lips 
I take a healthy bite from 
your lovely fingertips. 

My joy would be complete, dear 
If you were only here. 
But still I keep your hand 
As a lovely souvenir. 

The night you died I cut it off, 
I really don't know why. 
For now each time I kiss it, 
I get bloodstains on my tie. 

I'm sorry now I killed you,, 
For our love was something fine! 
Until they come to get me, 
I shall hold your hand in mine! 

The Shangri-las - I Can Never Go Home Anymore

-Artists: The Shangri-Las from "Teenage Tragedy"-Rhino RNEP 611
-peak Billboard position # 6 in 1965
-Words and Music by George Morton and Jerry Grimaldi

I'm gonna hide if she don't leave me alone
I'm gonna run away
Don't!!

'cause you can never go home anymore

SPOKEN: Listen. Does this sound familiar? You wake up every morning, go to
school every day, spend your nights on the corner just passing the time away.
Your life is so lonely like a child without a toy. Then a miracle-a boy. And that's
called "glad." Now my mom is a good mom and she loves me with all her heart.
But she said I was too young to be in love and the boy and I would have to part.
And no matter how I ranted and raved, I screamed, I pleaded, I cried-she told me it
was not really love but only my girlish pride. And that's called "bad."

(Never go home anymore)

SPOKEN: Now if that's happened to you, don't let this. I packed my clothes and
left home that night. Though she begged me to stay, I was sure I was right. And
you know something funny?? I forgot that boy right away. Instead I remember
being tucked in bed and hearing my mama say

(Hush, little baby, don't you cry)
(Mama won't go away)
Mama!!!

(You can never go home anymore)
Mama!!!
I can never go home anymore

SPOKEN: Do you ever get that feeling and wanna kiss and hug her? Do it now-
tell her you love her. Don't do to your mom what I did to mine. She grew so lonely
in the end. Angels picked her for a friend.

(Never)
And I can never go home (never) anymore
And that's called "sad."

Escape Club - I'll Be There

Over Mountains
over Trees
over Oceans
over Seas
across the desert
I'll be there

in a whisper on the wind
on the smile of a new friend
just think of me
And I'll be there

Don't be afraid, oh my love
I'll be watching you from above
And I'd give all the world tonight,
to be with you
Because I'm on your side,
And I still care
I may have died,
but I've gone nowhere

Just think of me,
And I'll be there

On the edge of a waking dream
over Rivers
over Streams
through Wind and Rain
I'll be there

Across the wide and open sky
thousands of miles I'd fly
to be with you
I'll be there

Don't be afraid, oh my love
I'll be watching you from above
And I'd give all the world tonight,
to be with you
Because I'm on your side,
And I still care
I may have died,
but I've gone nowhere

Just think of me,
And I'll be there

In the breath of a wind that sighs
oh, there's no need to cry

Just think of me,
And I'll be there

Social Distortion - It Wasn't A Pretty Picture

Last nite a whore- found murdered in the streets...
the skid row bums are just waking up
A politician, caught holding drugs
A friend who's left us in a suicidal way.

[Chorus:]
No-one said life would be easy,
Doesn't mean that much to me-
A crash-a bash-up on Highway 109
His wife has left him for another man
A kid, a child experiments with drugs
A friend who's left us in a suicidal way.

[Chorus:]
No-one said life would be easy,
THE EXECUTIONER, HAS SUNG HIS LAST SONG-

[Repeat 1st chorus]

R. Dean Taylor - Indiana Wants Me 

Indiana wants me
Lord

I can't go back there.
Indiana wants me
Lord

I can't go back there

I wish I had you to talk to.
If a man ever needed dyin'

He did
no one had the right
To say what he said about you

It's so cold and lonely here
Without you.
Out there the law's acomin'

I'm gettin' so tired of runnin'
Indiana wants me
Lord

I can't go back there.
Indiana wants me
Lord

I can't go back there.
I wish I had you to talk to.

It hurts to see the man that I've become

And to know I'll never see the morning
Sunshine on the land

I'll never see your smiling face
Or touch your hand.
If just once more I could see you

Our home and our little baby.

I hope this letter finds its way to you

Forgive me
love
for the shame I put
you through and all the tears

Hang on
love
to the mem'ries
Of those happy years.
Red lights are flashin' around me
Yeah
love
it looks like they found me.

Indiana wants me...

In the pines - Triffids version

In the pines in the pines
Where the sun never shines
Where we go running when we want to hide
Away from the sky away from the light
Where the overgrown branches conceal what's inside
In the pines in the pines
Where i take my( bride?)

No place is darker
And no place more still
We make love in the pines
In the shadow of the hill
I'm left with your name
I'm left with your form
Left with your scent
Even left with your moans
And I'm left in this fine and private place
In the pines in the pines
We meet face to face

In the pines in the pines
Where the sun never shines
Where we go running when we want to hide
Away from the sky away from the light
Where the overgrown branches conceal what's inside
In the pines in the pines
Where i take my (bride?)

Tell me where did you sleep last night
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

My girl, my girl, where will you go?
I'm going where the cold wind blows

Just about a mile from here
His head was found in a driving wheel

Bill Monroe - In The Pines  

The longest train I ever saw
Went down that Georgia line
The engine passed at six o'clock
And the cab passed by at nine
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
And we shiver when the cold wind blows
I asked my captain for the time of day
He said he throwed his watch away
A long steel rail and a short cross tie
I'm on my way back home
Little girl, little girl, what have I done
That makes you treat me so
You caused me to weep, you caused me to mourn
You caused me to leave my home
My father was an engineer
Died a mile out of town
His head was found in the driving gear
But his body was never found

Dolly Parton -In The Pines
 
In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
And you shiver when the cold wind blows
My love, my love, what have I done
To make you treat me so
You've caused me to weep, you've caused me to mourn
You've caused me to leave my home

In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
And you shiver when the cold wind blows

The longest train I ever saw
Went down that Georgia Line
The engine passed at six o'clock
The caboose went by at nine

In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
And you shiver when the cold wind blows

I asked my captain for the time of day
He said he throwed his watch away

In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
And you shiver when the cold wind blows
Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo

Bob Dylan - In the Pines (Carnegie Chapter Hall, Nov 4, 1961)

"Kinda' got lost comin' up here tonight. Took a subway. 
Got off somewhere on 156th Street. Started to walkin' back. 
I got hung up on a Cadillac store down there. So I'm not 
here so on time. I was almost run over by a bus. Took another 
subway, down on 34th street and I walked up here.

I come pretty prepared tonight, I got a list on my guitar. 
This is a new list, I used to have one on my guitar about 
a month ago,that was no good. Figured I'd get a good list, 
so I went around... I put the list on first, then I went around 
to other guuitar players, and -- sort of looked at their lists, 
and I copied down songs on mine.

Some of these I don't know so good."

[spoken: "This is the story about a little girl,
runnin' all over, findin' out all about - life, 
She's... goin' out at night, comin home, keepin' late hours,
findin' out all about - just . . . what makes up life.                    
Eleven years old."]

Little girl, little girl, where you been so long?
Not even your mama knows.
In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines.
And I shivered the whole night long.

My daddy, he was a railroad man,
Till the [...] town.
His head, was found neath' the driving wheel
And his body has never been found

[...], he love you, for a thousand times
And he's taken all the love I had to give.
He's taken my house, he's taken my love.
I'll never will love as long as I live.

Little girl, little girl, where you been so long?
Not even your mama knows.
In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines.
And I shivered the whole night long.

I Don't Like Mondays by the Boomtown Rats

The silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload
And nobody's gonna go to school today
She's gonna make them stay at home
And daddy doesn't understand it
He always said she was good as gold
And he can see no reasons
'Cos there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be show-ow-ow-ow-own?

Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I wanna shoo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oot the whole day down

The Telex machine is kept so clean
And it types to a waiting world
And mother feels so shocked
Father's world is rocked
And their thoughts turn to their own little girl
Sweet 16 ain't that peachy keen
Now that ain't so neat to admit defeat
They can see no reasons
'Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need?
Oh Oh Oh Oh

Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I wanna shoo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oot
The whole day down, down, down, shoot it all down

And all the playing's stopped in the playground now
She wants to play with her toys a while
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning
And the lesson today is how to die
And then the bullhorn crackles
And the captain tackles
With the problems and the hows and whys
And he can see no reasons
'Cos there are no reasons
What reason do you need to die, die?
Oh Oh Oh

Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like
I don't like (Tell me why)
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like
I don't like (Tell me why)
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I wanna shoo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oot the whole day down

Redgum - I Was Only 19 (A Walk In the Light Green)
	
Mum and Dad and Danny saw the passing out parade at Puckapunyal
It was a long march from cadets
The sixth battalion was the next to tour and it was me who drew the card
We did Canungra and Shoalwater before we left

And Townsville lined the footpaths as we marched down to the quay
This clipping from the paper shows us young and strong and clean
And there's me in me slouch hat with me SLR and greens
God help me - I was only nineteen

From Vung Tau riding Chinooks to the dust at Nui Dat
I'd been in and out of choppers now for months
And we made our tents a home, V.B. and pinups on the lockers
And an Asian orange sunset through the scrub

And can you tell me, doctor, why I still can't get to sleep?
And night time's just a jungle dark and a barking M.16?
And what's this rash that comes and goes, can you tell me what it means?
God help me - I was only nineteen

A four week operation, when each step can mean your last one on two legs
It was a war within yourself
But you wouldn't let your mates down 'til they had you dusted off
So you closed your eyes and thought about somethin' else

And then someone yelled out "Contact", and the bloke behind me swore
We hooked in there for hours, then a God almighty roar
And Frankie kicked a mine the day that mankind kicked the moon
God help me - he was goin' home in June

And I can still see Frankie, drinkin' tinnies in the Grand Hotel
On a thirty-six hour rec. leave in Vung Tau
And I can still hear Frankie, lying screaming in the jungle
'Til the morphine came and killed the bloody row

And the Anzac legends didn't mention mud and blood and tears
And the stories that my father told me never seemed quite real- 

Jesse McCartney - "Invincible"

I said don't do it babe
Said it ain't worth it babe
But you did it anyway
Four or five drinks and you were on your way

September 1st, 2003
It took the life right out of me
Hung up the phone
Raced out the door
Broken
Tried to believe that it wasn't true
But in my heart I always knew
That being the life of the party would catch up to you
Your family was waiting and crying for three damn hours

[Chorus:]
I said don't do it babe
Said it ain't worth it babe
But you did it anyway
Four or five drinks and you were on your way
Everything's cool on the straight away
But you took that turn doing eighty-five in a thirty-five
Why babe?

Every time I'm home I pass that road
Driving alone and the street feels cold
Seeing your face yeah it's haunting me
My mind goes crazy tryin' to figure out
Just where you would be four years from now
And what you were thinking when the lights came down
Doctors were trying to save you for three damn hours

[Chorus]

Who ever said that life was fair
When you live without a care
When you're invincible
When you're invincible
When you're invincible
Who thinks about leaving when you're livin'

[Chorus]

Hank Snow - "I Cried But My Tears Were Too Late"

One heart too many I have broken love dreams that faded away
Too many teardrops have fallen too many vows cast aside
Soft wedding bells should be ringing for us in the chapel tonight
But this morning they tolled and her bright band of gold
Was returned with this message tonight

Your sweetheart has left us today heart broken God took her away
That silk gown of white for her wedding tonight
She wore as they laid her away
Though she died for a love all in vain her last words were calling your name
As I walked to her grave where the bluebonnets wave
I cried but my tears were too late

Tonight sweetheart as I kneel here alone beside you
And my tears stain the flowers on your grave
In deep regret I think of the heart that I have wounded
Of the sorrow and grief and the life that I could have saved
Yes tonight darling you were to be my loving bride
But all that I have left now as I bow to pray
Is your ring a picture the sad message that they sent me
And this rose that I am taking from your grave
Though she died for a love...
