Full blown silence in an empty room
Volledige stilte in een lege kamer
A former bride and a former groom
Een voormalige bruid en een voormalige bruidegom
A folding table and a folding chair
Een klaptafel en een klapstoel
A folded hand of poker there
Een gevouwen pokerhand daar
All new directions must go everywhere
Alle nieuwe richtingen moeten overal naartoe gaan
Big round people in a cool little square
Grote ronde mensen op een cool pleintje
You can't cut it with a boat or a plane
Je kunt het niet redden met een boot of een vliegtuig
Man, it's gonna take a new train
Man, er is een nieuwe trein voor nodig
('Cause) You'll be leaving on a new train
(Want) Je vertrekt met een nieuwe trein
Far away from this world of pain
Ver weg van deze wereld van pijn
And when you look out your window you'll see
En als je uit je raam kijkt, zul je het zien
Your home, your baby, and your family
Je huis, je baby en je gezin
No melted ice cubes in a paper cup
Geen gesmolten ijsblokjes in een papieren bekertje
Hell, you'll be happy, you'll be all shook up
Je zult gelukkig zijn, je zult helemaal van streek zijn
The friends that greet you will be simple and plain
De vrienden die je begroeten zullen eenvoudig en duidelijk zijn
When you step down from that new train
Als je uit die nieuwe trein stapt
Collected volumes of history say
Verzamelde delen van de geschiedenis zeggen
Man makes mistakes most every day
De mens maakt vrijwel elke dag fouten
The half a pound of chopped ground round
Het halve pond gehakte grond rond
Is still a burger when it goes downtown
Het is nog steeds een burger als hij naar de stad gaat
No faded photographs of yesterdays
Geen vervaagde foto's van gisteren
Are in the books that I read these days
Staan in de boeken die ik tegenwoordig lees
To fly away from that memory town
Om weg te vliegen uit die herinneringsstad
You must keep both your feet on the ground
Je moet beide voeten op de grond houden
I'll be leaving on a new train
Ik vertrek met een nieuwe trein
Far away from this world of pain
Ver weg van deze wereld van pijn
The friends that greet me will be simple and plain
De vrienden die mij begroeten zullen eenvoudig en duidelijk zijn
When I step down from that new train
Als ik uit die nieuwe trein stap
New train
Nieuwe trein
New train
Nieuwe trein
I'm walkin' down the street
Ik loop door de straat
Like Lucky Larue
Zoals Lucky Larue
Got my hand in my pocket
Ik heb mijn hand in mijn zak
I'm thinkin' 'bout you
Ik denk aan jou
I ain't hurtin' nobody
Ik doe niemand pijn
I ain't hurtin' no one
Ik doe niemand pijn
There's three hundred men
Er zijn driehonderd man
In the state of Tennessee
In de staat Tennessee
They're waiting to die
Ze wachten om te sterven
They won't never be free
Ze zullen nooit vrij zijn
I ain't hurtin' nobody
Ik doe niemand pijn
I ain't hurtin' no one
Ik doe niemand pijn
Six million seven hundred thousand
Zes miljoen zevenhonderdduizend
And thirty-three lights on
En drieëndertig lampen aan
You think someone could take the time
Je denkt dat iemand de tijd kan nemen
To sit down and listen to the words of my song
Om te gaan zitten en te luisteren naar de woorden van mijn lied
At the beach in Indiana
Op het strand van Indiana
I was nine years old
Ik was negen jaar oud
Heard Little Richard singing "Tutti Frutti"
Hoorde Little Richard 'Tutti Frutti' zingen
>From the top of a telephone pole
>Vanaf de bovenkant van een telefoonpaal
I wasn't hurtin' nobody
Ik heb niemand pijn gedaan
I wasn't hurtin' no one
Ik heb niemand pijn gedaan
There's roosters laying chickens
Er zijn hanen die kippen leggen
And chickens layin' eggs
En kippen leggen eieren
Farm machinery eating
Landbouwmachines eten
People's arms and legs
De armen en benen van mensen
I ain't hurtin' nobody
Ik doe niemand pijn
I ain't hurtin' no one
Ik doe niemand pijn
Perfectly crafted popular hit songs never use
Perfect gemaakte populaire hitnummers worden nooit gebruikt
The wrong rhyme
Het verkeerde rijm
You'd think that waitress could get my order
Je zou denken dat die serveerster mijn bestelling zou kunnen krijgen
Right the first time
Gelijk de eerste keer
She's sitting on the back steps
Ze zit op de achtertrap
Just shucking that corn
Gewoon die maïs pellen
That gal's been grinning
Dat meisje heeft gegrinnikt
Since the day she was born
Sinds de dag dat ze geboren werd
She ain't hurtin' nobody
Ze doet niemand pijn
She ain't hurtin' no one
Ze doet niemand pijn
I used to live in Chicago
Ik woonde vroeger in Chicago
Where the cold wind blows
Waar de koude wind waait
I delivered more junk mail
Ik heb meer ongewenste e-mail bezorgd
Than the junkyard would hold
Dan zou het autokerkhof het volhouden
I wasn't hurtin' nobody
Ik heb niemand pijn gedaan
I wasn't hurtin' no one
Ik heb niemand pijn gedaan
You can fool some of the people part of the time
Een deel van de tijd kun je sommige mensen voor de gek houden
In a rock and roll song
In een rock-'n-roll-nummer
Fifty million Elvis Presley Fans
Vijftig miljoen Elvis Presley-fans
Can't be all wrong
Kan niet allemaal verkeerd zijn
I'm walkin' down the street
Ik loop door de straat
Like Lucky Larue
Zoals Lucky Larue
Got my hand in my pocket, Baby
Ik heb mijn hand in mijn zak, schatje
I'm thinkin' 'bout you
Ik denk aan jou
I ain't hurtin' nobody
Ik doe niemand pijn
I ain't hurtin' no one
Ik doe niemand pijn
I ain't hurtin' nobody
Ik doe niemand pijn
I ain't hurtin' no one
Ik doe niemand pijn
Hurtin' nobody
Niemand pijn doen
Hurtin' no one
Niemand pijn doen
Hurtin' nobody
Niemand pijn doen
Hurtin' no one
Niemand pijn doen
Hurtin' nobody
Niemand pijn doen
Hurtin' no one
Niemand pijn doen

Love Gives. Love Takes.
Liefde geeft. Liefde neemt.
It takes a lot of lucky breaks
Er zijn veel gelukspauzes voor nodig
Lucky Strikes. Lucky stars
Gelukkige slagen. Gelukkige sterren
I don't know how I got this far
Ik weet niet hoe ik zo ver ben gekomen
Who knows where it's coming from
Wie weet waar het vandaan komt
Or where it's going to
Of waar het naartoe gaat
Can I go all the way with you?
Mag ik helemaal met je mee?
You have your way. You have your doubts
Jij hebt jouw zin. Je hebt je twijfels
The falling in. The falling out.
Het erin vallen. Het eruit vallen.
A bridge is built. A bridge is burned.
Er wordt een brug gebouwd. Er wordt een brug verbrand.
Till you reach the point of no return
Totdat je het point of no return bereikt
Don't know where we're coming from
Ik weet niet waar we vandaan komen
Or where we're going to
Of waar we heen gaan
Can I go all the way with you?
Mag ik helemaal met je mee?
Heaven knows that this ain't nothing new
De hemel weet dat dit niets nieuws is
God knows how much I love you
God weet hoeveel ik van je hou
Love comes. Love goes.
Liefde komt. Liefde gaat.
Can I go all the way with you?
Mag ik helemaal met je mee?
Can I go (tacet) all the way with you?
Kan ik de hele weg met je meegaan?
Down the hall upstairs from from me
In de gang boven, van mij
There's a girl I swear I never see
Er is een meisje waarvan ik zweer dat ik het nooit zal zien
I hear the ringing of her phone
Ik hoor het rinkelen van haar telefoon
She must live up there all alone
Ze moet daar helemaal alleen wonen
She hangs her clothes out on the line
Ze hangt haar kleren aan de lijn
They're hanging there right next to mine
Ze hangen daar vlak naast de mijne
And if the wind should blow just right
En of de wind precies goed waait
She could be in my arms tonight
Ze zou vanavond in mijn armen kunnen zijn
We are the lonely - all together
Wij zijn de eenzamen - allemaal samen
All together - we're all alone
Allemaal samen - we zijn helemaal alleen
We are the lonely - all together
Wij zijn de eenzamen - allemaal samen
All together - we're all alone
Allemaal samen - we zijn helemaal alleen
The cashier at the Pump & Pay
De kassamedewerker bij Pump & Pay
Knows everything's gonna be okay
Weet dat alles goed komt
The all night all right Rent-A-Cop
De hele nacht in orde Rent-A-Cop
Is across the street at the Donut Shop
Ligt aan de overkant van de Donut Shop
The waitress waits with Whiskey Sour
De serveerster wacht met Whiskey Sour
At the Single Mingle Happy Hour
Tijdens het Single Mingle Happy Hour
The one man band begins to sing
De eenmansband begint te zingen
Accompanied by a drum machine
Begeleid door een drummachine
White divorced swinging male
Wit gescheiden zw
Seeks company to no avail
Worthless ruthless toothless man
Wants wealthy woman with a plan
SWF with a PHD
Seeks TLC at the A&P
GWM nice and trim
Seeks S-E-X at the G-Y-M
Ugly man treats girls like dirt
Wants buttons sewn upon his shirt
DUI at the B-A-R
Seeks M-A-N with C-A-R
Alone Alone Alone Alone....
Toothy gal with breasts so large
Takes Visa Amex Master Charge
Dial 1-900 Girls for Fun
You lonely little hot dog bun.
Straight but curious thirty-three
Seeks survivor of Wounded Knee.

Want to do it till the cows come home Fade...
We were standing
Standing by peaceful waters
Standing by peaceful waters
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Many years ago along the Illinois-Wisconsin Border
There was this Indian tribe
They found two babies in the woods
White babies
One of them was named Elizabeth
She was the fairer of the two
While the smaller and more fragile one was named Marie
Having never seen white girls before
And living on the two lakes known as the Twin Lakes
They named the larger and more beautiful Lake Lake Elizabeth
And thus the smaller lake that was hidden from the highway
Became known forever as Lake Marie
Many years later I found myself talking to this girl
Who was standing there with her back turned to Lake Marie
The wind was blowing especially through her hair
There was four italian sausages cooking on the outdoor grill
And they were ssssssssizzlin'
Many years later we found ourselves in Canada
Trying to save our marriage and perhaps catch a few fish
Whatever came first
That night she fell asleep in my arms
Humming the tune to "Louie Louie'
Aah baby, We gotta go now.
The dogs were barking as the cars were parking
The loan sharks were sharking the narcs were narcing
Practically everyone was there
In the parking lot by the forest preserve
The police had found two bodies
Nay, naked bodies
Their faces had been horribly disfigured by some sharp object
Saw it on the news The tv news in a black and white video
Do you know what blood looks like in a black and white video?
Shadows, Shadows that's what it looks like
All the love we shared between her and me was slammed
Slammed up against the banks of Old Lake Marie Marie
We were standing
Standing by peaceful waters
Standing by peaceful waters
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Peaceful waters
Standing by peaceful waters
Aah baby, we gotta go now
(Repeat and Fade....)
Does he still think about her
Why there was never really any doubt
Every time he lights a candle
Or blows a candle out
The scientific nature of the ordinary man
Is to go on out and do the best you can
I don't think that you know
That I think you don't know
That old barometer goes crazy baby
Every time it starts to snow
You won't find me walking
Round your part of town
Humdity built the snowman
Sunshine brought him down
This world is full of people
They never seem to fall
Somebody said they seen you
You hadn't changed at all
The fundamental story
Of the contemporary man
Is to walk away and someday understand
The scientific nature of the ordinary man
Is to go on out and do the best you can
Humdity built the snowman
(tacet) Sunshine brought him down
Brought him down
Brought him down
(Repeat and Fade...)
Do you like me? Well I hope you do,
Cause if you like me, then I think I'm gonna have to like you too.
We'll share our things, and have some fun,
Then we'll say goodbye, and go back home when the day is done.
If you tell me, I'll tell you too.
And we'll say the things and do the things that lovers do.
We'll keep it to ourselves, we won't hurt no one.
Then we'll say goodbye, and go back home when the day is done.
We'll carve our names, on a tree,
Then we'll burn it down so no one in the world will see.
And we'll make love, while we watch the flame
Then we'll walk away as if we never had no shame.
Now we must hide, to be alone,
And we can't say our sweet things on the telephone.
If we can't stop, what we've begun,
We should say goodbye and go back home when the day is done.
Do you still like me? Well I hope you do.
Cause if you still like me then I think I'm gonna have to still like you.
We shared our things, and had some fun
Now, we'll say goodbye and go back home when the day is done.
Yeah, we'll say goodbye and go back home while we still have one.
Let's say goodbye, and go back home now the day is done.
I don't want your big French Fry
I don't want your car
I don't want to buy no soap
>From no washed-up movie star
You are so much louder
Than the show I wanna hear
With your sugarless gum
Gee, but I'm dumb
Non-alcoholic beer
It's enough to make a grown man
Blow up his own TV
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
I heard you the first time
I heard myself say
Seems like the little woman
Is getting bigger every day
You don't have to tell the neighbors
A little silence ain't no sin
They already think my name is
Where in the hell you been?
Louder, louder, louder, louder, louder
Constantly
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Whoa oh whoa oh
Sweet Serenity
Whoa oh whoa oh
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Ain't it great at the end of the day
When there ain't no sound around
Just me and the fence post
Staring each other down
Nothing but a big bunch of nothing
Driving me insane
Cause there ain't no voice that's louder
Than the one inside my brain
Hey you go on
Go on and let me be
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Whoa oh whoa oh
Sweet Serenity
Whoa oh whoa oh
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
(Repeat and Fade....)
It stated out
When she was small
She was premature
She wasn't nothing at all
Two pounds six ounces
A little pumpkin seed
But she got more love
Than you ever gonna need
She got big fat love
She got big fat love
She don't eat enough
To keep her alive
When she bends over
She's a quarter to five
Skinny little thing
But she ain't afraid
To dance the watusi
On a razorblade
She got big fat love
She got big fat love
Tiny little hands
Tiny little nose
Tiny little footsteps
Wherever she goes
Little bit don't leave
No bathtub ring
You pull the plug
She's down the drain
She got big fat love
Big fat love
She got big fat love
Bigger than me
Bigger than you
Bigger than the hippo
Down at the zoo
Thin is in
Stout is out
Big fat love
Is what I'm talking about
She got big fat love
She got big fat love
Big fat love
She got big fat love
Moonlight shining on the back of my hand
Cat Fight rattlin' the garbage can
Looks like somethin' chased you up a tree
Same thing, same thing happened to me
Wild wind blowing down the neck of my shirt
Old men sitting on a bench in the dirt
Seems like another ship has gone out to sea
Same thing, same thing happened to me
Shoe shine someone's got to tell ya the news
A fine line separates a boy from the blues
Looks like you could use some company
Same thing, same thing happened to me
Runnin', runnin' just as fast as I can
Someone, someone take a hold of my hand
Looks like somethin' chased you up a tree
Same thing, same thing happened to me
Same thing, same thing happened to me
I can taste your lipstick in the wine,
I can feel your heartbeat close to mine.
With your love wrapped around me,
I'm silent and still.
I know that this love is real.
I have tasted other lips I thought were true,
I have looked into the eyes I thought were you.
Now touching just to touch,
And feeling just to feel,
I know that this love is real.
Someone should tell our dreams when love is gone,
While still in slumber, memories linger on
Sometimes I lie awake in bed till dawn,
Thinking of you, now you're gone
Tender is the heart that sleeps in rest,
Tender is the hope of tenderness
Love thy neighbor as thyself
And thou shall not steal
I know that this love is real.
Love thy neighbor as thyself
And thou shall not steal
I know that this love is real.
Feeling kind of boney
On the telephoney
Talking to Marconi
Eating Rice-A-Roni
Nominated for Tony
For acting like a phoney
Watching Twilight Zoney
On my forty-two inch Sony
This is just a long song
It ain't no poem
Leave the lights on till you baby gets home.
It's like sitting in the kitchen
When the music's really bitchin'
Your nose it starts to itchin'
As you count your old age pension
Did I forget to mention
The ride that I was hitchin'
To the aluminum convention
I had such good intentions
Keep you cotton pickin' fingers off my song poem
And leave the lights on till you baby gets home.
Leave the lights on till you baby gets home.
Leave the lights on till you baby gets home.
Don't forget your toothbrush
Your hairbrush and your comb
Leave the lights on till you baby gets home.
Got a big ol' dog
A chrome crowbar
I keep that mother humper in the back seat of my car
Me and Billy Shakespeare
Stepped out to get a root beer
We sat together so near
People thought we were queer
Punctuated by the big scare
We joined the Air Force right there
To defend our country first class
Who couldn't give a rat's ass
Don't you tell me that the White House is my home
Leave the lights on till you baby gets home.
Leave the lights on till you baby gets home.
Leave the lights on till you baby gets home.
Don't forget your toothbrush
Your hairbrush and your comb
Leave the lights on till you baby gets home.
Got a big ol' dog
A big iron bar
I keep that mother humper in the back seat of my car
It's like kissing Greta Garbo
With a mouth full of marbles
Like trying to cash a paycheck
In the middle of a train wreck
Leave the lights on
Leave the lights on
Like trying to get aroundo
In a car made of bondo
Like speaking German lingo
To a dog named Dingo - Plotz!!
Leave the lights on
Leave the lights on
Like a french-fried quesadilla
In a franchised pizzeria
Leave the lights on
Leave the lights on
A big iron bar
I keep that mother humper in the back seat of my car
The motel lights were blinkin'
On my chartreuse four-door Lincoln
On the dock the fish were stinkin'
I simply didn't have a care.
And the old men sit 'round the cracker barrels
The children hum their Christmas Carols
The train tracks all run parallel
But they'll all meet up one day
On a dusty pew in a vestibule
Sits the Devil playing pocket pool
He's waiting for the next poor fool
Who forgot that it was Sunday
We used to tell each other lies
With our orange plastic button eyes
In a former life on a motel chair
I was Charlie Parker's Teddy Bear
Yeah, me and Bird we'd stay up late
I used to watch him contemplate
While his horn would sit by the window and wait
Till it was time for him to blow it
The only song I ever knew
Was Moonlight Bay on the Avenue
These are tales from the Devil's Chin
Charlie, I could've been a contender
And the old men sit 'round the cracker barrels
The children hum their Christmas Carols
The train tracks all run parallel
But they'll all meet up one day
He forgot that it was Sunday
On a dusty pew in a vestibule
Sits the ole Red Devil playing pocket pool
He's waiting for the next poor fool
Who forgot that it was Sunday
And the old men why there're sittin' 'round their cracker barrels
And the children yeah they're out hummin' those Christmas Carols
And all those ole rusty train tracks
They're running parallel
But they'll all meet up one day (Fade...)
I love you so much it hurts me
Darlin', that's why I'm so blue
I'm so afraid to go to bed at night
Afraid of losing you
I love you so much it hurts me
And there's nothing I can do
I want to hold you, my dear
Forever and ever
I love you so much it hurts me so
I love you so much it hurts me
And there's nothing I can do
I want to hold you, my dear
Forever and ever
I love you so much it hurts me so
I want to hold you, my dear
Forever and ever
I love you so much it hurts me so
