Steals my mind and hides it in her garden

Song: The Chameleons - The fan and bellows

Album: This Never Ending Now (2002)

Label: Paradiso Records

A Beecher's Brook is love
A hurdle at which greater men have fallen
She manipulates
Steals my mind and hides it in her garden

But now
Only love can bring me down
Somehow
Somehow love must bring me down
I've become the fan and the bellows

Cupid masturbates
Absent of all thought and of all reason
Shoots me in the back
I think perhaps it must be shooting season

But now
Only love can bring me down
Somehow
Somehow love must bring me down
I've become the fan and the bellows

Not me...
Not me...

But now
Only love can bring me down
I've become the fan and the bellows
Somehow love must bring me down
I've become the fan and the bellows
Alternative Lyrics from Marks songbook (Dearest dead days):

A Beecher's Brook is love
A hurdle at which greater men
Have fallen
She manipulates
Steals my mind
And hides it in her garden

But now
Only love can bring her down
Somehow
Somehow love will bring me down
I've become the fan and the bellows

Cupid masturbates
Absent of all thought
And of all reason
Shoots me in the back
I think perhaps
It must be shooting season

Stop smoking that

Song: Babyshambles - Lost Art Of Murder

Album: Shotter's Nation (2007)

Label: Parlophone

Roll a four
Roll a nine
Find yourself washed up in paradise

But like before
You didn't mind
Someone else washed up in paradise

If i really did

What a nice day for a murder
You call yourself a killer but the only thing your killing is your time
There's nothing absurder
A bird is just a burden
To your heart your soul your body, spirit and mind

Don't look at me like that
She won't take you back
You said to much
You been to unkind
Get up off your back
Stop smoking that
You could change your life
You just might change your mind

Could roll a four
Could roll a nine
Find yourself washed up in paradise

All the fours
And all the nines
I lost my phone in paradise

It's big as you go

What a nice day for a murder
Say you're a killer, the only thing your killing is time
It's nothing absurder
A bird is a burden
To your heart your soul your body, spirit and mind

Don't look at me like that
She won't take you back
You done to much
You been to unkind
Get up off your back
Stop smoking that
You could change your life
Do you think they'll change their minds

Throughout any type of weather

Song: The Raconteurs - Together

Album: Broken Boy Soldiers (2006)

Label: Third Man Records

You and me forever
We belong together
And we'll always endeavor
Throughout any type of weather

You want everything to be just like
The stories that you read but never write
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
Or you'll get burned

You wrote our names down on the sidewalk
The rain came and washed 'em off
So we should write 'em again on wet cement
So maybe people a long time from now will know what we meant

You want every morning to be just like
The stories that you read but never write
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
My only concern

I'm adding something new to the mixture
So there's a different hue to your picture
A different ending to this fairytale
When the sunset into which we sail

You want everything to be just like
The stories that you read but you can't write
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
Or you'll get burned

Simple math, it's how our bodies even got here

Song: Manchester Orchestra - Simple Math

Album: Simple Math (2011)

Label: Favorite Gentlemen Recordings

Hunter eyes
I'm lost and hardly noticed, slight goodbye
I want to rip your lips off in my mouth
And even in my greatest moment doubt
The line between deceit and right now

Simple math, it's how our bodies even got here
Sinful math, the ebb and flow to multiply
What if I was wrong and no one cared to mention
What if it was true and all we thought was right was wrong?
Simple math, the truth cannot be fractioned
Either way...

I imply to mitigate the guilt, we could align
A perfectly constructed alibi
To hush the violent guilt that eats and never dies
In actual blame, they call me once the dark divides

Simple math, it's why our bodies even lay here
Sinful math, the truth cannot be fashioned
What if you were crazy, would we have to listen then?

What if we've been trying to get to where we’ve always been?
What if I was wrong, and started trying to fix it?
What if you believed me? Everything is brilliant

Oh, oh, oh

What if I’ve been trying to get to where I’ve always been?
What if we’ve been trying to get to where we’ve always been?
Simple math, believe me, all is brilliant
What if we've been trying to kill the noise and silence?

What if I was wrong and you had never questioned it?
What if it was true, that all we thought was right, was wrong?
Simple math, the truth cannot be fractioned
I imply I've got to get it back then

Oh, oh, oh

And so we sink so far down

Song: Warpaint - Lissie's Heart Murmur

Album: The Fool (2011)

Label: Rough Trade Records

On the edge of the water where the ships pass by
and the sound of your laughter in the endless sky
tips my head back, full of swimming thoughts
beneath deep breathing that sinks so far down
that sings so far down

and I handle my business and I know the prize
is of no consequence. You have looked with your eyes
wide open to what's inside, that sinks so far down

I'm in two

I went looking, went searching under the water
sinking and pushing, till you pulled me under
to where you are, to where we build our house
and so we sink so far down
and we can't go back now, can't go back now

on the edge of the water where the ships pass by
and the sound of your laughter in the endless sky
tips my head back, full of swimming thoughts
beneath deep breathing

now I stay holding this honesty with you

I went looking, went searching under the water
sinking and pushing, till you pulled me under
to where you are, to where we build our house
and so we sink so far down
and we can't go back now

sink so far down when I know you're around
and I can't go back now, can't go back now

No more tricks and no more games

Song: Pete and the Pirates - Winter 1

In The Winter hollow time
You feel bitter thats your sign
You're a problem comes to mind
drink through winter the gutters fine

You've got a long way home x2

Wrote a letter about this time
But you better not waste your time
you're a problem that comes to mind
drink through winters the gutters fine

You've got a long way home x4

Washing Powder
Is that your washing powder
little voice I hear getting louder
it's one stupid thing to remind me
of somebody I thought was behind me

Yes they came back pushing the knife in
slow down you're caught in a whirlwind
I will hire a private detective
trying to work it out in the end dear

Hey don't just stand there
There's no point in empty hands
Where's your boy tonight
Wonder do you realize
what you have done
cos I'm not pretending
no more tricks and no more games
my tails between my legs now

Yes you keep talking and talking
looking nice and isnt it boring
then somebody else whose wearing your perfume
walks past and it really confuses me

So come back stop pushing the knife in
slow down you're caught in a whirlwind
I will hire a private detective
trying to work it out in the end dear

Hey don't just stand there
There's no point in empty hands
Where's your boy tonight
Wonder do your realise
what you have done
cos I'm not pretending
no more tricks and no more games
my tails between my legs now

Look Look at your hair well thats not you
you paint your face but I still see through

Is that your washind powder
little voice I hear getting louder
its one stupide thing to remind me
of somebody I thought was behind me

Yes she came back pushing the knife in
slow down you're caught in a whirlwind
I will hire a private detective
trying to work it out in the end dear

It could be a wonderful thing

Song: Foster the People - Love

Album: Torches (2011)

Label: Columbia Records

Hello, my name is Mark
It's a gentlemen's games
And I can slip through and creepin'
Through the night's parade
I'll shake a hand or two
I'll tip my hat to you
I'm always runnin' and a-jumpin'
Like a fool who would do
On through the wild, I see her
She sees me
What we can be something, it's exciting
I wanna run away
But I don't move, I stay
I talk to her, I say
You you were meant for me
Oh I can't speak, I think I'm falling in

Love, love, love
It could be a wonderful thing
Love, love
It can make you crazy
Love love love
It could be an incredible thing
Love love love
If you have it it's amazing

Sarah, she's a cougar
Got moves like barracudas
On the hunt for the runs
That left gone the twenty-to-yas
Got her head up high
High heels that match her thighs
And she be spending lots of money
Her friends, think she's real funny
She says "hey look at me"
"You will see that I'm a queen"
Got experience to give
All the life you never lived
But all the boys just run
She never has her fun
Oh yeah, but Sarah
She don't care, she keeps looking
Cause she's hoping for

Love, love, love
It could be a wonderful thing
Love, love
It can make you crazy
Love love love
It could be an incredible thing
Love love love
If you have it it's amazing

Oooh ooh ooh oooh ooh yeah yeah [x2]

I got the fever
Got the fever
Got the fever yeah,
I said she's got the fever
Got the fever
Yeah, I'm falling in love
You got the fever
Got the fever
Got the fever
I said got the fever
Got the fever
Yeah I'm falling in

Love, love, love
It could be a wonderful thing
Love, love
It can make you crazy
Love love love
It could be an incredible thing
Love love love
If you have it it's amazing

Just like in a storybook

Song: She & Him - Got Me

Album: Volume One (2008)

Label: Merge Records

Saw your face, my hand you took
Just like in a storybook
And you've got me
Yeah, you've got me

I can't even argue
Couldn't 'cause it's true
Now you've got me
Yeah, you've got me

Got me tucked up in your pocket
Don't know how you won my heart
'cause I'd locked it
Yeah, I'd locked it

I can feel your heartbeat
Where I lay my head
'cause you've got me
Yeah you've got me
X2

Got me tucked up in your pocket
Don't know how you won my heart
'cause I'd locked it
Yeah, I'd locked it

There's someone who's loved you forever but you don't know it.

Song: Kate Bush - Among angels

Album: 50 Words for Snow (2011)

Label: Fish People

Only you can do something about it.
There's no-one there, my friend, any better.
I might know what you mean when you say you fall apart.
Aren't we all the same? In and out of doubt.
I can see angels standing around you.
They shimmer like mirrors in Summer.
But you don't know it.
And they will carry you o'er the walls.
If you need us, just call.
Rest your weary world in their hands.
Lay your broken laugh at their feet.
I can see angels around you.
They shimmer like mirrors in Summer.
There's someone who's loved you forever but you don't know it.
You might feel it and just not show it.

Just don't come home and say you've been asleep

Song: Mazzy Star - Common Burn

Album: -

Label: Rough Trade Records

Simple things like your overcoat
And your beauty
That still are burnin' me
Let me hang around
Even if it's just some way
To have some common burn
A common burn
So I spend the night in someone's house
That you glowed in
Oh simple me that you fled
But we have haven't a clue
That common burn
That common burn
Aware of arms
I've seen yours
So many times before
You could sit around
And have everything that you score
Just don't come home and say you've been asleep
When you know you're burnin' someone
That common burn
That common burn
You know we have
