"Superman"

"Superman"


I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird, I'm more than a plane
I'm more than some pretty face beside a train
It's not easy to be me

I wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
'Bout a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd but don't be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed but won't you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream
It's not easy to be me

Up up and away away from me
Well it's all right
You can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy or anything

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me

Inside of me, inside of me
Inside of me, inside of me

It's not easy to be me

"Sweetest Girl (Dollar Bill)"

"Sweetest Girl (Dollar Bill)"


Girl...
Uooh...

High school she was that girl that make me do the hula hoop around the gym
High school she was
That girl that make me do the hula hoop around the gym
I Never thought that she would come and work for the president
Mr. George Washington
She thought he'd call
She had a good day, bad day, sunny day, rainy day
All he wanna know is is
Closed legs don't get fed, go out there and make my bread
All he wanna know is
She ended up in a road car, bruised up, scarred hard
All he wanna know is
She thought he'd call

[Chorus: x2]
See I'mma tell you like Wu told me
Cash rules everything around me
Singin' dollar dollar bill y'all
Singin' dollar dollar bill y'all

Pimpin' got harder cos, hoes got smarter
On the strip is something they don't wanna be a part of
Rather be up in the club shakin' for a thug
For triple times the money and spending it like they wanna
They got they mind on they money, money on they mind
They got they finger on the trigger, hand on the nines
See everyday they feel the struggle, but staying on they grind
And ain't nobody takin' from us, and that's the bottom line

But I know there's a drop in the block
You move slow
You getting' pressure from cops
You don't know not to lay low
Because 25 to life is no joke
To all my real gorillas thuggin'
On top of corners every day strugglin'
All the beautiful women getting' money
Washin' them dollar bills like laundry

[Chorus: x2]
See I'mma tell you like Wu told me
Cash rules everything around me
Singin' dollar dollar bill y'all
Singin' dollar dollar bill y'all

"Take You There"

"Take You There"


[Chorus:]
We can go to the tropics
Say pina coladas
Shorty I could take you there
Or we can go to the slums
Where killas get hung
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya
I could take ya
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya
I could take ya
Shorty I could take you there

Baby girl I know it's rough but come wit me
We can take a trip to the hood
It's no problem girl it's my city
I could take you there
Little kid wit guns only 15
Roamin' the streets up to no good
When gun shots just watch us, run quickly
I could show you where

As long as you're wit me
Baby you'll be alright
I'm known in the ghetto
Girl just stay by my side
Or we can leave the slums go to paradise
Babe it's up to you,
Cuz'

[Chorus]

Shorty come wit me it's no worry
I know the bad men them where I stay
Police fly pursuit in a hurry
This is no gun play
Don't be scared, I know the West Indies
It's Jamaica, that's where I'm from
Might see something that you're not used to
Welcome to the slums

As long as you're wit me
Baby you'll be alright
I'm known in the ghetto
Girl just stay by my side
Or we can leave the slums go to paradise
Babe it's up to you, cuz'

[Chorus]

"Tears In Heaven"
(originally by Eric Clapton)



Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong
And carry on.
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven.

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven?

I'll find my way
Through night and day.
'Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven.

Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knees.
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please.
Begging please...

Beyond the door
There's peace, I'm sure.
And I know there'll be no more
Tears in heaven.

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong
And carry on.
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

"Teenage Dream"
(originally by Katy Perry)



I think you're pretty without any makeup on
I think you're funny when you tell the punchline wrong
I knew you got me when you let your walls come down, down

Before you met me I was alright
But things were kinda heavy, you brought me to life
Now every February you'll be my valentine

Let's just talk all through the night
There's no need to rush
We can dance until we die
You and I will be young forever

You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep, let's run away and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back

My heart stops when you look at me
Just one touch now baby I believe this is real
So take a chance and don't ever look back,
Don't ever look back

When you're around me life's like a movie scene
I wasn't happy until you became my queen
I finally found you, my missing puzzle piece
I'm complete

Let's just talk all through the night
There's no need to rush
We can dance until we die
You and I will be young forever

You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep, let's run away and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back

My heart stops when you look at me
Just one touch now baby I believe this is real
So take a chance and don't ever look back,
Don't ever...

I will get your heart racing if that's what you need
In this teenage dream tonight
Let you rest your head on me if that's what you need
In this teenage dream tonight

You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep, let's run away and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back

My heart stops when you look at me
Just one touch now baby I believe this is real
So take a chance and don't ever look back,
Don't ever...

I will get your heart racing if that's what you need
In this teenage dream tonight
Let you rest your head on me if that's what you need
In this teenage dream tonight

"The Freshmen"
(originally by The Verve Pipe)


When I was young I knew everything
She a punk who rarely ever took advice
Now I'm guilt stricken, sobbing with my head on the floor
Stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice

I can't be held responsible
'Cause she was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these
Sins
We were merely freshmen

My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
His girl took a week's worth of valium and slept
Now he's guilt stricken sobbing with his head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how he never really wept he says

I can't be held responsible
'Cause she was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these
Sins
We were merely freshmen

We've tried to wash our hands of all of this
We never talk of our lacking relationships
And how we're guilt stricken sobbing with our heads on the
Floor
We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we'd say

I can't be held responsible
'Cause she was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these
Sins
We were merely freshmen

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these
Sins
We were merely freshmen
We were merely freshmen
We were only freshmen

"The Scientist"
(feat. Hannah Trigwell)
(originally by Coldplay)



Come up to meet you
Tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I'll set you apart

Tell me your secrets
And ask me your questions
Oh let's go back to the start
Running in circles
Coming up tails
Heads on a science apart

Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh take me back to the start

I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science
Science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart

Tell me you love me
And come back and haunt me
Oh when I rush to the start
Running in circles
Chasing up tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start

Oh take me back to the start
Oh take us back to the start

"Thinking Out Loud"
(originally by Ed Sheeran)



When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?

And, darling, I will be loving you 'til we're 70
And, baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Me - I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am

So honey now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are

When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don't remember my name
When my hands don't play the strings the same way
I know you will still love me the same

'Cause honey your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen
And, baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory
I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe it's all part of a plan
I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand

That, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
Thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are

La la la la la la la la la la la

So, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Oh, darling, place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are
Baby, we found love right where we are
Baby, we found love right where we are

"This Is What You Came For"
(originally by Calvin Harris)



Baby, this is what you came for
Lightning strikes every time she moves
And everybody's watching her
But she's looking at you, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
But she's looking at you, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh

Baby, this is what you came for
Lightning strikes every time she moves
And everybody's watching her
But she's looking at you, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
But she's looking at you, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh

We go fast with the game we play
Who knows why it's gotta be this way
We say nothing more than we need
I say, "Your place," when we leave

Baby, this is what you came for
Lightning strikes every time she moves
And everybody's watching her
But she's looking at you, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
But she's looking at you, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh, you, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
But she's looking at you, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh

Baby, this is what you came for
Lightning strikes every time she moves

Baby, this is what you came for
Lightning strikes every time she moves
And everybody's watching her
But she's looking at you, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
But she's looking at you, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh
You, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
But she's looking at you, oh, oh, you, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh

"Titanium"

"Titanium"


You shout it loud, but I can't hear a word you say
Talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium

Cut me down
But it's you who'll have further to fall
Ghost town, and haunted love
Raise your voice
Sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud, not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium...

Stone-hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone-hard, as the bulletproof glass

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium

I am titanium
I am titanium
