Nothing But Love (Greenpeace)
"Say something, say something, anything! I've shown you everything. There's a hole in my heart. Your so cruel to me!" The Seaman shells no pea with the sound of his shells passing over ...
… followed by powerful explosions the Milky Way platonically & stoically absorbs …
James - Say Something
You're as tight as a hunter's trap
Hidden well, what are you concealing
Poker face, carved in stone
Amongst friends, but all alone
Why do you hide?
Say something, say something, anything
I've shown you everything
Give me a sign
Say something, say something, anything
Your silence is deafening
Pay me in kind
Take a drug to set you free
Strange fruit from a forbidden tree
You've got to come down soon
More than a drug is what I need
Need a change of scenery
Need a new life
Say something, say something, anything
I've shown you everything
Give me a sign
Say something, say something, anything
Your silence is deafening
Pay me in kind
Say something, say something, anything
I've shown you everything
Give me a sign
I'm open wide, open wondering
Have you swallowed everything
Pay me in kind
James - Sometimes
There's a storm outside, and the gap between crack and thunder
Crack and thunder, is closing in, is closing in
The rain floods gutters and makes a great sound on concrete
On a flat roof, there's a boy leaning against the wall of rain
Aerial held high, calling, "Come on thunder, come on thunder"
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul
It's a monsoon and the rain lifts lids off cars
Spinning buses like toys, stripping them to chrome
Across the bay, the waves are turning into something else
Picking up fishing boats and spewing them on the shore
The boy is hit, lit up against the sky, like a sign, like a neon sign
And he crumples, drops into the gutter, cuts strange, legs twitching
The flood swells his clothes and delivers him on, delivers him on
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul
There's four new colors in the rainbow an old man's taking Polaroids
But all he captures is endless rain, endless rain, endless rain
He says listen, takes my head and puts my ear to his
And I swear I can hear the sea
Sometimes, when I look in your eyes
I can see your soul, I can reach your soul
Sometimes, when I look in your eyes
I can see your soul, I can touch your soul
Sometimes, when I look in your eyes
I can see your soul, I can hear your soul
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul
James - Laid (Version 3)
This bed is on fire with passionate love
The neighbors complain about the noises above
But she only comes when she's on top
My therapist said not to see you no more
She said you're like a disease without any cure
She said I'm so obsessed that I'm becoming a bore, oh no
Ah, you think you're so pretty
Caught your hand inside the till
Slammed your fingers in the door
Fought with kitchen knives and skewers
Dressed me up in women's clothes
Messed around with gender roles
Line my eyes and call me pretty
Moved out of the house so you moved next door
I locked you out, you cut a hole in the wall
I found you sleeping next to me, I thought I was alone
You're driving me crazy, when are you coming home?
Laid
Laid
James - Born Of Frustration
Wooooowooooowoooowooo
Wooooowooooowoooowooo
All this frustration
I can't meet all my desires
Strange conversation
Self control has just expired
All an illusion
Only in my head you don't exist
Who are you foolin'
Don't need a shrink or an exorcist
Lalalala
lalalala
lalalala
la
Wooooowooooowoooowooo
Show me the movie of who you are and where you're from
Born of frustration
Caught upon the webs you spun
Where's ther confusion
A vision of what life is like
Show the movie that does't deal in black and white
Talk talk talkin 'bout who's to blame
But all that counts in how to change
Stop stop talkin 'bout who's to blame
When all that counts in how to change
Lalalala
lalalala
lalalala
la
All this frustration
All this frustration
Who put round eyes on a butterfly's wings
All this frustration
All this frustration
Who gave the leopard spots and taught the birds to sing
Born of frustration
Born of frustration
Wooooowooooowoooowooo
Wooooowooooowoooowooo
I'm living in the weeds where nothing is the way it seems
Where no one is who they need to be
Where nothing seems that real to me
'Bout time we filled our lives
Upon the walls of gold no solid ground
The world is spinnin' endlessly
We're clinging to our own beliefs
Born of frustration
Born of frustration
Wooooowooooowoooowooo
Wooooowooooowoooowooo
James - Just Like Fred Astaire
Doctor, what is happening to me?
Palpitations, my mind's diseased
Even my vision is impaired
I'm losing my hair
'Cause when I hold her in my arms
I feel like Fred Astaire
Lovesick, my temperature's high
Just met a girl who believes we can fly
I'm a bull, not a bear
I'm a millionaire
'Cause when I hold her in my arms
I feel like Fred Astaire
I believe in happiness
I believe in love
I believe she fell to earth
From somewhere high above
I believe in Hollywood
Don't believe that love must bring despair
'Cause when I hold her in my arms
I feel like Fred Astaire
You say love is just a disease
A plague for the naive
These days, no-one believes
Meteors may strike the earth
Nations live and die
I'm the boy who got the girl
And now we're gonna fly
We can cross the race divide
Bridge a gap that wasn't really there
'Cause when I hold her in my arms
I feel like Fred Astaire
I'm gonna hold her in my arms
Just like Fred Astaire
I'm gonna hold her in these charms
Like Fred Astaire
Like Fred Astaire
(My goodness, the water's rising)
Like Fred Astaire
James - Nothing But Love (Official Video)
Nothing but love gives the world some meaning
Nothing but love is the drug of Healing
Lover be soft, lover be bold
Earthquake, avalanche, volcano
Nothing but love
I've got nothing but love
Nothing but love stops the mind from grinding
Nothing but love flushes hearts from hiding
Deeper we dive, nowhere to hide
Earthquake, avalanche and goodbye
Nothing but love fills the hole I'm hiding
Nothing but love from the well we're drinking
Into the highs deal with the lows
Earthquake avalanche volcano
For all, there's no answers only dancers
For all, love me now, I'll pay the cost
Nothing but love
I've got nothing but love
Nothing but, nothing but love
I've got nothing but love
I've got nothing but love
Nothing but, nothing but love
Nothing but love!
Play Dead
[Music depresses me]
Help's on it's way, I'm lost in space
No protection
Please come and rescue me
I've got no friends, an orphan
Who had faith, who betrayed
Took only a kiss to give me away
Who had faith, who betrayed
Took only a kiss
To blow you away
All in my head
I'll play dead, if you want me to
if you want me all in my head
i'll play dead, if you want me to
if you want me
Who had faith, who betrayed
Took only a kiss to give me away
Who had faith, who betrayed
Took only a kiss
to blow you away
All in my head
I'll play dead, if you want me to
if you want me all in my head
i'll play dead, if you want me to
if you want me
Greenpeace
I don't like the world I see So I'll avert my gaze to the TV I'm too cool to get involved Someone else can change the channel for me Gonna suck the juices out of this world Gonna treat her rough It's all she deserves She's so cold to me Gonna rape this world With my straight lines Gonna straighten her out Because nature is just history There's a hole in my heart Your so cruel to me There's a hole in my heart From your industry There's a hole in my heart It's no use to get involved You'll never stop the world from turning I just want to rest in peace I can't stop the world from burning Gonna test my bombs wherever I want, Gonna poon the whale Gonna drain the swamp It's money to me Gonna fuck with genes I am what I am Much more than a God Much less than a man of industry There's a hole in my heart Your so cruel to me There's a hole in my heart From the industry There's a hole in my heart
