In the Ghetto

As the snow flies
On a cold and grey Chicago morning
A poor little baby child is born
In the ghetto
And his mama cries

'cause if there's one thing that she don't need
It's another hungry mouth to feed
In the ghetto.

Oh, People, don't you understand
A child needs a helping hand
Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day.
Take a look at you and me,
Are we too blind to see?
Do we simply turn our heads and look the other way?

Well, the world turns
And a hungry boy with a running nose
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows
In the ghetto
And his hunger burns.

So he starts to roam the streets at night,
And he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight
In the ghetto

Then one night in desperation the young man breaks away,
He buys a gun, he steals a car,
He tries to run, but he don't get far
and his mama cries,

As the crowd gathers round an angry young man
face down in the street with a gun in his hand
In the ghetto.

And as her young man died
On a cold and grey Chicago morning
Another little baby child is born
In the ghetto,
And his Mama cries
In the ghetto

Like a Rolling Stone (Bob Dylan)

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you ?
People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"
You thought they were all kiddin' you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin' out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone ?

You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it
You said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say do you want to make a deal?

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone ?
You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
When they all come down and did tricks for you
You never understood that it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone ?

Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
Exchanging all precious gifts
But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone ?

U2 - Sunday bloody Sunday

I can't believe the news today

oh I can't close my eyes and make it go away

how long how long must we sing this song

how long how long 'cause tonight we can be as one tonight

Broken bottles under children's feet

bodies strewn across the dead end street

but I won't heed the battle call

it puts my back up puts my back up against the wall

Sunday bloody Sunday Sunday bloody Sunday

Sunday bloody Sunday Sunday bloody Sunday

And the battle's just begun
there's many lost but tell me who has won
the trench is dug within our hearts
and mothers children brothers sisters torn apart

Sunday bloody Sunday Sunday bloody Sunday

How long how long must we sing this song how long how long
'cause tonight we can be as one tonight tonight

Sunday bloody Sunday Sunday bloody Sunday

Wipe the tears from your eyes wipe your tears away
oh wipe your tears away oh wipe your tears away

Sunday bloody Sunday Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday Sunday bloody Sunday

And it's true we are immune when fact is fiction and TV reality
and today the millions cry we eat and drink while tomorrow they die
the real battle just begun to claim the victory Jesus won on

Sunday bloody Sunday Sunday bloody Sunday

All Along The Watchtower (von Bob Dylan)

“There must be some way out of here,” said the joker to the thief,
“There’s too much confusion, I can’t get no relief.
Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth,
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth.”

“No reason to get excited,” the thief, he kindly spoke,
“There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke.
But you and I, we’ve been through that, and this is not our fate,
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.”

All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too.

Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl,
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.

R.E.M.: Everybody hurts

When your day is long and the night, the night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go, cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes
Sometimes everything is wrong, now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go (hold on)
If you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on
Cause everybody hurts, take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts, don't throw your hands, oh now, don't throw your hands
If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you're not alone
If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long
When you think you've had too much, with this life, to hang on
Well everybody hurts, sometimes
Everybody cries, and everybody hurts, sometimes
But everybody hurts sometimes so hold on, hold on, hold on,
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
Everybody hurts
You are not alone

Übersetzung vgl. http://www.swr3.de/musik/lyrix/Alle_...6iq/index.html
Wenn der Tag endlos lang ist
und nur die Nacht für dich da ist,
Wenn du dir sicher bist,
dass du genug hast von diesem Leben,
halte durch.
Lass dich nicht gehen,
jeder weint und jeder ist mal verletzt.

Manchmal läuft eben alles schief.
Und jetzt ist es Zeit, darüber zu singen
Wenn sich dein Tag wie eine Nacht anfühlt,
(halte durch, halte durch)
Wenn du das Gefühl hast,
dass Dir alles entgleitet (halte durch)
Wenn du denkst, du hättest genug von diesem Leben,
halte durch.

Jeder ist mal verletzt.
Finde Trost bei deinen Freunden
Gib dich nicht geschlagen,
Wenn du dich einsam fühlst,
(dann glaub mir) du bist nicht alleine.

Wenn du auf dich alleine gestellt bist in diesem Leben,
die Tage und Nächte lang sind
Wenn du denkst,
du hättest genug von diesem Leben –
halte durch

Jeder weint und jeder ist mal verletzt.
Deshalb halte durch, gib nicht auf.
Du bist nicht allein...

[Schüdde]

Gepriesen seien die Götter
Für jenen holden Trank
Am Abend macht er heiter
Und am nächsten Morgen krank

Am Mittag in die Sonne
Und des Tages heller Schein
Verwandelt gold'nen Honig
In ganz besonderen Wein

Er lockert deine Zunge
Und macht dein Herz ganz leicht
Er macht die Frauen schöner
Und benebelt deinen Geist

Er lässt die Sinne tanzen
Und nie hast du ihn satt
Und keiner wird dies leugnen
Der ihn je gekostet hat

Eine Freude für den Gaumen
Des Honigs süßer Tau
Eine Freude für die Augen
Ob golden oder braun

Eine Freude für die Seele
Des Genusses Blütezeit
Doch wehe dem der frönet
Allein der Trunkenheit

Hoch die Krüge werte Mannen
Stimmet ein in unseren Sang
Lasst die Trunkenheit vergehen
Doch nicht unserer Lieder Klang

John O’Callaghan feat. Sarah Howells – Find Yourself

Drawn into the backdrop here
You could fade, you could fade away
Bright lights on a starless night
Burn a hole in the dying day

Looking at life through a loaded gun
Take your best shot, aim it at the sun
Looking at life through a loaded gun
You know you’ll find

You’ll find yourself, you’ll find yourself alone
You’ll find yourself, you’ll find yourself

Drawn into the darkness here
With your eyes on the prize at stake
Faint hearts on an endless path
Letting go of the ones we break

Looking at life through a loaded gun
Take your best shot, aim it at the sun
Looking at life through a loaded gun
You know you’ll find
You’ll find yourself, you’ll find yourself alone
You’ll find yourself, you’ll find yourself

Drawn into the backdrop here
You could fade, you could fade away
Bright lights on a starless night
Burn a hole in the dying day

Looking at life through a loaded gun
Take your best shot, aim it at the sun
Looking at life through a loaded gun
You know you’ll find

You’ll find yourself, you’ll find yourself alone
You’ll find yourself, you’ll find yourself

Melissa Etheridge – Like The Way I Do


Is it so hard to satisfy your senses
you found out to love me you have to climb some fences
scratching and crawling along the floor to touch you
and just when it feels right you say you found someone
to hold you does she like I do

Baby tell me does she love you like the way I love you?
Does she stimulate you, attract and captivate you?
Tell me does she miss you, existing just to kiss you like the wayI do?
Tell me does she want you, infatuate and haunt you
Does she know just how to shock you, electrify and rock you
Does she inject you, seduce you and affect you like the way Ido?

Can I survive all the implications
even if I tried could you be less than an addiction
don't you think I know there's so many others
who would beg steal and lie fight kill and die
just to hold you hold you like I do

Baby tell me does she love you like the way I love you
does she stimulate you attract and captivate you
tell me does she miss you existing just to kiss you like the way I do
tell me does she want you infatuate and haunt you
does she know just how to shock you electrify and rock you
does she inject you seduce you and affect you like the way I do

Oh nobody loves you like the way I do
nobody wants you like the way I do
nobody needs you like the way I do
nobody aches nobody aches just to hold you
like the way I do no no no-oh

Tell me does she love you like the way I love you
does she stimulate you attract and captivate you baby baby
tell me does she miss you existing just to kiss you like the way I do
no tell me does she want you infatuate and haunt you
does she know just how to shock you electrify and rock you
does she inject you seduce you and affect you baby
like the way I do no like the way I do oh oh oh yea
