Lillix- "It's About Time"- Me gusta MUCHO!
I hate you, I love you
I just can't remember to forget you
Who are you, who needs you?
You make me feel alive, I die, so high
I'm crawling on the ground
I have found I can fly

One of these days it all comes together
One of those days that goes on forever
Think I sound crazy? Maybe, whatever
What's it all about?

[Chorus:]
It's about life, it's about fun
It's over before it has begun
It's about you, it's about me
It's about everything between and I say
I'm saying goodbye to you, I say hi to you with no clue
It's about time that I
Make up my mind

It's simple, confusing, the truth is I'm winning but I'm losing
And pulling and pushing, won't do me any good
It could, it should
I'm honest to myself that the truth is I lied

One of these days it all comes together
One of those days that goes on forever
Think I sound crazy? Maybe, whatever
What's it all about?

[Chorus]

Time is creeping behind me, surrounding around me
Fading the words so desperately
Now give me a reason that I can believe in
Time is something you can't rewind
One of these days it all comes together
One of those days that goes on forever
Think I sound crazy? Maybe, whatever
What's it all about?

[Chorus]



Matchbox 20- "Unwell"- kind of DEPRESSING but I like the CHORUS!
All day staring at the ceiling
Making friends with shadows on my wall
All night hearing voices telling me
That I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for something

Hold on
Feeling like I'm headed for a breakdown
And I don't know why

[Chorus:]
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be...me

I'm talking to myself in public
Dodging glances on the train
And I know, I know they've all been talking about me
I can hear them whisper
And it makes me think there must be something wrong with me
Out of all the hours thinking
Somehow I've lost my mind

[Chorus]

I've been talking in my sleep
Pretty soon they'll come to get me
Yeah, they're taking me away

[Chorus]

Yeah, how I used to be
How I used to be
Well, I'm just a little unwell
How I used to be
How I used to be
I'm just a little unwell



J.Lo- "Alive"- Kinda inspirational (((=
Time goes slowly now in my life
Fear no more of what I'm not sure
Searching for your soul
The strength to stand alone
the power of not knowing and letting go
I guess I've found my way it's simple when its right
Feeling lucky just to be here tonight
And happy just be me and be alive.
Love, in and out, of my heart,
And though life can be strange I can't be afraid
Searching for your soul, the strength to stand alone,
The power of not knowing and letting go
I guess I've found my way it's simple when it's right
Feeling lucky just to be here tonight
And happy just to be me and be alive
I guess I've found my way it's simple when its right
Feeling lucky just to be here tonight and
Happy just to be me and to be alive.



Simple Plan-"When I'm With You"
Taking my time
I'm trying to leave the memories of you behind
I'm gonna be fine
As soon as I get your picture right out of my mind

[CHORUS]

I wanna feel the way you make me feel when I'm with you
I wanna be the only hand, you need to hold on to
But everytime I call you don't have time
I guess I'll never get to call you mine

For nothing at all, I know theres a million reasons
why I shouldn't call
With nothing to say, could easily make this
conversation last all day

[CHORUS]

Another lesson I didn't get to learn
You're my obsession
I've got nowhere to turn

[CHORUS (repeat 2X)]



NFG- "The Story So Far"
I can't remember the time or place,
or what you were wearing,
it's unclear about how we met,
all I know it was the best conversation that I've ever had,
to this day I never found someone,
with eyes as wide as yours,
I've been searching up and down this coast,
overlooking what I need the most

did you notice I was afraid?
I thought I'd run out of things to say,
two more hours until today burns this away,
and it starts all over again,
the sky will never look the same again,
till you show me how it could be,
the sky will never look the same again,
till you show me how it could be

and everything else is irrelevant,
to the story so far,
a coincidence that you look like her from a far,
is it true that you like to sleep alone?
Or is it fun to just tell everyone?

Did you notice that I was afraid?
I thought I'd run out of things to say
two more hours until today burns this away,
and it starts all over again
the sky will never look the same again,
till you show me how it could be
the sky will never look the same again
till you show me how it could be

and when the world turns over
ill keep my ears to the wall
and when the world turns over
ill keep my feet straight on the ground

did u notice I was afraid?
I thought I'd run out of things to say,
two more hours until today burns this away,
and it starts all over again,
the sky will never look the same again
till you show me how it could be
the sky will never look the same again
till you show me how it could be



Hoku-"Perfect Day"- Old but nice song!
Sun's up
A little after twelve
Make breakfast for myself
Leave the work for someone else
People say
They say that it's just a phase
They tell me to act my age,
Well I am

On this perfect day,
Nothing's standing in my way

On this perfect day,
When nothing can go wrong

It's the perfect day,
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon
I could stay, forever as I am

On this perfect day

Sun's down
A little after ten
I pick up all my friends
In my Mercedes-Benz

Wake up
Don't tell me it's just a dream
'Cause when I've had enough
You'll hear me say,
Now don't you try to rain on my

Perfect day,
Nothing's standing in my way

On this perfect day,
Nothing can go wrong

It's the perfect day,
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon
I could stay, forever as I am
On this perfect day

La la la
La la la,
Oh, oh

I'm in the race
But I've already won
(La la la)
And getting there can
Be half the fun
(La la la)
So don't stop me
Till I'm good and done,
Don't you try to rain on my

Perfect day
It's the perfect day

It's the perfect day
Nothing's gonna bring me down
I could stay, forever as I am

On this perfect day
Nothing's standing in my way,

On this perfect day,
Nothing can go wrong

I'm in the race
But I've already won
And getting there can
Be half the fun,
So don't stop me
Till I'm good and done,
Don't you try to rain on my

Perfect, day
On this perfect day
On this perfect day



Avril Lavigne- "Falling Down"
If fears what makes us decide,
Our future journey,
I'm not along for the ride,
Cuz I'm still yearning,
To try and touch the sun,
My fingers burning,
Before you're old you are young,
Yeah I'm still learning
[Chorus]
I am falling down,
Try and stop me,
It feels so good to hit the ground,
You can watch me,
Fallin on my face,
It's an uphill human race,
and I am falling down
I'm standing out in the street,
The earth is moving,
I feel it under my feet,
And I'm still proveing,
That I can stand my ground,
And my feet are there, haven't washed my hair
Too be lost before you are found,
Don't mean you are losing
[Chorus]
Some day I'll live in a house
Etc., etc., etc.
Don't you know that's not for now
and for now I'm falling
down...down...down...,
down...down...down,
down...down...down,
Yeah e Yeah..Yeah e Yeah,
[Chorus]
I'm falling down,
I'm falling down..I'm falling down...
I'm falling....



Good Charlotte-"Wondering"
If you want me to wait
I would wait for you
If you tell me to stay
I would stay right through
If you don't wanna say
Anything at all
I'm happy wondering

Go!

Yeah, yeah

Since I was a young man
I never was a fun man
I never had a plan and no security
Then ever since i met you
I never could forget you
I only wanna get you right here next to me

Cause everybody (a-whoa-oh-oh)
Needs someone that they can trust and
You're somebody (a-whoa-oh-oh)
That I found just in time

If you want me to wait
I would wait for you
If you tell me to stay
I would stay right through
If you don't wanna say
Anything at all
I'm happy wondering

Now my life is changing
It's always rearranging
It's always getting stranger than I thought it ever could
Ever since I found you
I wanna be around you
I wanna get down to the point that I need you

Cause everybody (a-whoa-oh-oh)
Needs someone that they can trust and
You're somebody (a-whoa-oh-oh)
That I found just in time

If you want me to wait
I would wait for you
If you tell me to stay
I would stay right through
If you don't wanna say
Anything at all
I'm happy wondering

Go!
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

Don't tell me
The bad news
Don't tell me anything at all
Just tell me
That you need me
And stay right here with me

If you want me to wait
I would wait for you
If you tell me to stay
I would stay right through
If you don't wanna say
Anything at all
I'm happy wondering

If you want me to wait
I would wait for you
If you tell me to stay
I would stay right through
If you don't wanna say
Anything at all
I'm happy wondering



WHS Women's Ensemble (arr. by Carl Strommen)-"Don't Rain on my Parade"- hear us at our Spring Pops Concert!
Don't tell me not to fly,
I've simply got to.
If someone takes a spill,
it's me and not you.
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade!

Don't tell me not to live,
just sit and putter.
Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter.
Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade?!

I'll march my band out.
I'll beat my drum.
And if I'm fanned out,
your turn at bat, sir,
at least I didn't fake it.
Hat, sir, I guess I didn't make it!

But whether I'm the rose of sheer perfection.
Or freckle on the nose of life's complexion.
The cinder of the shiny apple of its eye.

I gotta fly once,
I gotta try once,
Only can die once, right, sir?

Ooh love is juicy, juicy,
and you see,
I gotta have my bite, sir!

Get ready for me love, 'cause I'm a comer.
I simply gotta march, my heart's a drummer.
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade!

I'm gonna live and live now!
Get what I want, I know how!
One roll for the whole shebang!
One throw that bell will go clang!
Eye on the target and wham!
One shot, one gunshot, and BAM!

Hey mister, I'm still here I am!

I'll march my band out.
I'll beat my drum.
And if I'm fanned out,
your turn at bat, sir,
at least I didn't fake it.
Hat, sir, I guess I didn't make it!

Get ready for me love, 'cause I'm a comer. I simply gotta march,
my heart's a drummer.
No one will rain on my parade!



WHS Women's Ensemble [lyrics in italics are sung by soloist Stef!] (arr. by Kirby Shaw)-"Bridge Over Troubled Water"- hear us at our Spring Pops Concert!
I'll be your bridge o'er troubled water,
when you're down,
when you're down,
I will carry you like a bridge o'er troubled water,
I will lay me down.

When you're weary,
feelin' small,
when tears are in your eyes,
I will dry them all;

I'm on your side.
Oh, when times get rough
and friends just can't be found,
like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

When you're down and out,
Oo-oo-hoo
When you're on the street my Lord,
Oo-oo-hoo
when evening falls
Oo-oo-hoo
so hard,
so hard,
I will comfort you,
comfort you.

I'll take your part
Oh, when darkness comes,
when darkness comes
and pain is all around,
Ahhhhhhhhhh
Liek a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water,
I will lay me down.

I'll be your bridge o'er troubled water,
when you're down,
when you're down,
I will carry you like a bridge o'er troubled water,
I will lay me down.

Sail on silver girl.
Sail on silver girl.
Sail on by.
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine!
Oh, if you ever need a friend,
need a friend.
Look around,
I'm sailin' right behind.
Ahhhhhhhh

Like a bridge over troubled water,
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water,
I will ease your mind.

I'll be your bridge o'er troubled water,
when you're down,
when you're down,
I will carry you like a bridge o'er troubled water,
I will lay...
I will lay me down,
lay me down.

Verse 1
There's no place I'd rather be

Me ke kai hoene i ka pu'e one
It's time to try the Hawaiian roller coaster ride.

Chant Chorus 2
Hang loose, hang ten, howzit, shake a shaka
No worry, no fear, ain't no biggie braddah
Cuttin' in, cuttin' up, cuttin' back, cuttin' out

Let's get jumpin', surf's up and pumpin'
Coastin' with the motion of the ocean
Whirlpools swirling, cascading, twirling

Beauty and the Beast- "Something More"
Belle: Is he gone? Can you imagine? He asked me to marry him.
Me, the wife of that boorish, brainless . . .

"Madame Gaston!"
Can't you just see it?
"Madame Gaston!"
His "little wife"
No sir! Not me!
I guarantee it
I want much more than this provincial life
I want adventure in the great wide somewhere
I want it more than I can tell
And for once it might be grand
To have someone understand
I want so much more than they've got planned...



Jessica Riddle- "Even Angels Fall"
You've found hope
You've found faith,
Found how fast she could take it away.
Found true love,
Lost your heart.
Now you don't know who you are.

She made it easy,
Made it free,
Made you hurt til you couldn't see.
Sometimes it stops,
Sometimes it flows,
But baby that is how love goes.

You will fly and you will crawl;
God knows even angels fall.
No such thing as you lost it all.
God knows even angels fall.

It's a secret no one tells;
One day it's heaven, one day it's hell.
It's no fairy tale;
Take it from me,
That's the way it's supposed to be.

You will fly and you will crawl;
God knows even angels fall.
No such thing as you lost it all.
God knows even angels fall.

You laugh, you cry, no one knows why
Behold the thrill of it all...
You're on the ride
You might as well
Open your eyes

You will fly and you will crawl;
God knows even angels fall.
No such thing as you lost it all.
God knows even angels fall.
Even angels fall
Even angels fall



Cyndi Lauper- "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"- Oldies rock my socks!
I come home in the morning light
my mother says when you gonna live your life right
oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones
and girls they want to have fun
oh girls just want to have fun

the phone rings in the middle of the night
my father yells what you gonna do with your life
oh daddy dear you know you're still number one
but girls they want to have fun
oh girls just want to have -

that's all they really want
some fun
when the working day is done
girls - they want to have fun
oh girls just want to have fun

some boys take a beautiful girl
and hide her away from the rest of the world
I want to be the one to walk in the sun
oh girls they want to have fun
oh girls just want to have -

that's all they really want
some fun
when the working day is done
girls - they want to have fun
oh girls just want to have fun,
they want to have fun,
they want to have fun...

'cause mama I'm a big girl now!

(Oo wah oo...)Ma, I gotta tell you that with a doubt,
I get my best dancing lessons from you-oo.(Oo....)
You're the one who taught me how to "Twist and Shout"(Oo...)

Wo-oh-oh-oh-oh!
Once I used to fidget 'cause i just sat home.

Wo-oh-oh-oh-oh!

Once upon a time I used to dress up "Ken,"
but now that I'm a woman I like bigger men!
