    Still Taking Chances - Michael Martin Murphy
    (Pretty sure I've heard it, but had to Google anyway...)

    "Well maybe you should just drink a lot less coffee,
    And never ever watch the ten o'clock news,
    Maybe you should kiss someone nice,
    Or lick a rock,
    Or both."

    "Maybe you should cut your own hair
    'Cause that can be so funny
    It doesn't cost any money
    And it always grows back
    Hair grows even after you're dead"

    Exclamation

    REGINA SPEKTOR - Ghost Of Corporate Future (Googled)

    War! It ain’t nothing but a heartbreaker
    War! Friend only to the undertaker
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    War by Edwin Starr. I think Bruce Sprinsteen did a cover of it as well.

    There must be some mistake
    I didn't mean to let them
    Take away my soul.
    Am I too old, is it too late?
    the luminous grass of the prairie hides
    feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
    porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,
    but weighty and unmovable
    As black Dakota hills.

    Nice one Idril.....but had to start singing to myself before the title clicked...

    The Show Must Go On by Pink Floyd



    Did you see the frightened ones
    Did you hear the falling bombs
    Did you ever wonder
    Why we had to run for shelter
    When the promise of a brave new world
    Unfurled beneath a clear blue sky

    Very fitting for your username (and great song)!

    Goodbye Blue Sky -- Pink Floyd



    We passed upon the stair
    We spoke of was and when
    Although I wasn't there
    He said I was his friend
    Which came as some surprise
    I spoke into his eyes
    You must have died alone
    A long long time ago
    Optima dies ... prima fugit

    I love that song, it's less than two minutes long but I think it's one of Dave's finest vocal moments.

    I'm glad to see I'm not the only person who's made that connection.

    And your song, blue, is The Man Who Sold The World by David Bowie...and Nirvana.

    Walked down by the bathing pond
    to try and catch some sun.
    Saw at least a hundred schoolgirls sobbing
    into hankerchiefs as one.
    I don't believe they knew
    I was a schoolboy.

    Mother Goose.....Jethro Tull...

    and for the next one....when you play it, turn the volume up as loud as it will go.

    "He hears the silence howling --
    catches angels as they fall.
    And the all-time winner
    has got him by the balls.
    He picks up Gideons Bible --
    open at page one --
    old Charlie stole the handle and
    the train won't stop going --
    no way to slow down.'

    Locomotive Breath by Jethro Tull

    o the wind is blowing, it hurts your skin
    as you climb up hillside, forest and fen.

    your arms full of lullabies, orchids and wine
    your memories wrapped within paper and twine.

    the room that you lie in is dusty and hard
    sleeping soft babies on piles of yards
    of gingham, taffeta, cotton and silk
    your dry hungry mouths cry for your mother's milk.

    when the dawn commes to greet you, you'll rise with clothes on
    and advance with the others, singing old songs
    of cattle and maidens and withered old queens.
    let the music carry you on.

    The Tain (Part IV) by the Decemberists

    Mrs. Mooney has a pie shop.
    Does a business, but I notice something weird.
    Lately, all her neighbors cats have disappeared.
    Have to hand it to her!
    What I calls,
    enterprise!
    Poppin' pussies into pies!
    Wouldn't do in my shop!
    Just the thought of it's enough to make you sick!
    And I'm telling you them pussycats is quick.

    Sweeny Todd - The Worst Pie in London

    Tequila in his heartbeat, his veins burned gasoline.
    It kept his motor running but it never kept him clean.
    They say he loved adventure, rickys the wild one.
    He married trouble and had a courtship with a gun.

    18 AND LIFE~ Skid Row

    I'm so tired of being here
    Suppressed by all my childish fears
    And if you have to leave
    I wish that you would just leave
    'Cause your presence still lingers here
    And it won't leave me alone

    These wounds won't seem to heal
    This pain is just too real
    There's just too much that time cannot erase

    When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
    When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
    And I held your hand through all of these years
    But you still have
    All of me

    You used to captivate me
    By your resonating life
    Now I'm bound by the life you've left behind
    Your face it haunts
    My once pleasant dreams
    Your voice it chased away
    All the sanity in me

    I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
    But though you're still with me
    I've been alone all along
    Shall these bones live?

    My Immortal - Evanescense


    I feel unhappy
    I feel so sad
    I lost the best friend
    That I ever had

    She was my woman
    I loved her so
    But it's too late now
    I've let her go
    Do, or do not. There is no try. - Yoda

    Changes by Black Sabbath


    Juniper, juniper, juniper, juniper of mine, in the garden the raspberry, raspberry of mine

    Ah, Under the pine, the green one, Lay me down to sleep, Ah, lully lully, ah lully lully, Lay me down to sleep

    Chorus

    Ah, Little pine, little green one, Don't rustle above me, Ah, lully lully, ah lully lully, Don't rustle above me

    Chorus

    Ah, you beauty, pretty maiden, Fall in love with me, Ah, lully lully, ah lully lully, Fall in love with me
    Shall these bones live?
