ONE - FILTER

One is the loneliest number
That you'll ever do
Two can be as bad as one
It's the loneliest number
Since the number one

No is the saddest experience you'll ever know
Yes it's the saddest experience you'll ever know
'Cause one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do

It's just no good any more
Since you went away
Now I spend my time
Just making rhymes of yesterday

One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
One is the loneliest
One is the loneliest
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do

It's just no good any more
Since you went away

Number one is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do

(repeat above three lines to end)



FLOWERMAN - TONIC

Flower man, flower man
When are you gonna grow?
When you gonna lay down
Everything you know?


Flower man, flower man
How you gonna sleep
With all these people
Cutting down your feet?


CHORUS:
Flower man (flower man)
Flower man (flower man)


Flower man, flower man
You're heads above the rest
If you're gonna trust them
They gotta pass the test


Flower man, flower man
You're living in the sun
Shattered and hollow
You shine for everyone


CHORUS:
Flower man (flower man)
Flower man (flower man)


BRIDGE:
They get enough to hurt you
With all the things they say
So you put on your armor
And stand in the way
You're wearin' the target
That took so long to earn
And you start looking sideways
On every turn -
You start looking sideways
At every turn


CHORUS:
Flower man (flower man)
Flower man (flower man)


CHORUS:
Flower man (flower man)
Flower man, flower man



WALKING AFTER YOU - FOO FIGHTERS

Tonight I'm tangled in my blanket of clouds
Dreaming aloud
Things just won't do without you, matter of fact
Ohh ohh ohhhhh, I'm on your back
I'm on your back
Ohh ohh ohhhhh, I'm on your back


If you'd accept surrender, I'll give up some more
Weren't you adored?
I cannot be without you, matter of fact
Ohh ohh ohhhhh, I'm on your back


CHORUS:
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you


BRIDGE:
Another heart is cracked
In two -
I'm on your back


I cannot be without you, matter of fact
Ohh ohh ohhhhh, I'm on your back
I'm on your back
Ohh ohh ohhhhh, I'm on your back


CHORUS:
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you


If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you



BEACON LIGHT - WEEN

Looking up to the sky
Made me realize; made me want to fly
To a place far away
Where they're singing songs and making love all day
Somewhere beyond the sun
Where an Adam is spent and announces a tongue


CHORUS:
So don't you be late -
I see the beacon light, and it's on
So strap on my ~jammy pie~ -
Fuel it up, 'cause I'm gone


The people all dance
With their big long arms and a peach in their pants
Picking fruit from the sky
As the demon ship goes passing them by
I'm not sure if it's love
But it's coming down from the heavens above


CHORUS:
So don't you be late -
I see the beacon light, and it's on
So strap on that ~jammy pie~ -
Fuel it up, 'cause I'm gone


INSTRUMENTAL


CHORUS:
So don't you be late -
I see the beacon light, and it's on
So strap on that ~jammy pie~ -
Fuel it up, 'cause I'm gone




INVISIBLE SUN - STING AND ASWAD

One (one)
two (two)
three (three)
four (four)
five (five)
six (six)
seven (seven)
eight (eight)
nine (nine)
ten (ten)
Liftoff
(Liftoff)


I don't want to spend the rest of my life
Looking at the barrel of an Armalite
I don't want to spend the rest of my days
Keeping out of trouble like the soldiers say


I don't want to spend my time in Hell
Looking at the walls of a prison cell
I don't ever wanna play the part
Of a statistic on a government chart


CHORUS:
There has to be an invisible sun; (oh oh)
It gives its heat to everyone
It has to be an invisible sun (oh oh)
That gives us hope when the whole day's done


It's dark all day and it glows all night -
Factory smoke and acetylene light
I face the day with my head caved in
Looking like something that the cat brought in

Eh


CHORUS:
Has to be an invisible sun; (oh oh)
It gives its heat to everyone
It has to be an invisible sun (oh oh)
That gives us hope when the whole day's done


CHORUS:
There has to be an invisible sun (yeah, yeah, yeah)
It gives its heat to everyone
It has to be an invisible sun (oh oh)
That gives us hope when the whole day's done


INSTRUMENTAL


And they're only gonna change this place
By killing everybody in the human race
And they would kill me for the cigarette
But I don't even wanna go just yet


CHORUS:
Has to be an invisible sun; (oh oh)
It gives its heat to everyone
It has to be an invisible sun (oh oh)
That gives us hope when the whole day's done

Yeah, yeah, yeah


CHORUS:
Got to be an invisible sun (gotta gotta be)
It gives its heat to everyone (gotta be)
Has to be an invisible sun (oh oh) (gotta gotta be)
Gives us hope when the whole day's done (yeah)


CHORUS:
Has to be an invisible sun (oh oh)
Gives its heat to everyone
It has to be an invisible sun (oh oh)
That gives us hope when the whole day's done



DUECE - THE CARDIGANS

I am afraid of you now
Now that you left me
Nothing to say - no, not now
Now that you left me
Now that you left me
Now that you left me


Just for how long did you know
Before you left me?
Nothing to do, it's up to you
To use it against me -
Use it against me
Now that you left me


You are ahead only now
Because you left me
Words that I said - all yours now -
Use it against me
You have erased me
Now that you left me


I'll be gone, I'll be gone
I'll be gone, I'll be gone
I'll be gone, I'll be gone
I'll be gone, I'll be gone



ONE MORE MURDER - BETTER THAN EZRA

One more murder in this town
It don't mean a thing, just lock your doors and
Travel 'round
One more murder in this town -
Don't worry, the rain'll wash the chalkmarks
From the ground


Saturday night -
Shot ring out
Add one to
The bloody count
Home alive
To see another day


Plead NG
To a lesser count
DA says it's
Without a doubt
3 to 5 -
You're on the street again


One more murder in this town
Don't mean a thing, you get accustomed
To the sound
One more murder in this town -
Just block off the street and wrap the 'Crime Scene'
Tape around


BRIDGE:
Hosanna, hosanna!
I can't feel a thing at all
Hosanna, hosanna!
I can't feel a thing
I can't feel a thing at all
I can't feel a thing at all
I can't feel a thing at all
I can't feel a thing


SPOKEN:
~I try to feel.~
~I try to make some kind of job.~
"something I can't make out"
"something I can't make out"


BRIDGE 2:
I said
I can't feel a thing!


Saturday night -
Down and out
Parking lot -
I think I'll come about
Feel the terrors
Trigger you to Hell


Plead and beg
For sympathy -
"Take the car -
I got a family!"
Here alive -
And only sentiment


One more murder
One more murder
One more murder in this town
In this town
Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeahhhh
Yeah, yeah, yeahhhh
Yeah, yeah, yeahhhh
Yeah, yeah, yeahhhh
Yeah, yeah, yeahhhh


MORE THAN THIS - THE CURE

For a second of your life
Tell me that it's true
(I'm) waiting for a sign -
It's all I want of you
Your heart hides a secret
A promise of what is -
Of something more than this


Just a second of your time -
Any one will do
(A) Taste of any other
Is all I want from you
Offer me the world
And how can I resist
Something more than this?


CHORUS 1:
Make-believe in magic -
Make-believe in dreams -
Make-believe - Impossible -
Nothing as it seems
See, touch, taste, smell, hear -
But never know if it's real
(But never know if it's real)


For a second of your life
Tell me if it's true
Anywhere we are
Is all I want of you
(On) your lips lies a secret
A promise of a kiss ...
(Of) something more than this


INSTRUMENTAL


Just a second of your time -
Any one will do -
To know from any other
Is all I want from you
(You've) given me the world
(You) know I can't resist
Something more than this


CHORUS 2:
Make-believe in magic -
Make-believe in dreams -
Make-believe - Impossible -
Nothing as it seems
Never really understand
What anything means
(What anything means)


Another second of my life
Not knowing if it's true -
Make-believe in nothing
Is all I want of you
Whispering the secret
Whispering there is
Always something other -
Something more than this



HUNTER - BJORK

If travel is searching
And home what's been found
I'm not stopping


CHORUS:
I'm going hunting
I'm the hunter
I'll bring back the goods
But don't know when


BRIDGE:
I thought I could organize freedom
How Scandinavian of me
How Scandinavian
How Scandinavian
You sussed it out, didn't you?


You could smell it
So you left me on my own
To complete the mission
Now I'm leaving it all behind


CHORUS 2:
I'm going hunting
I'm the hunter
I'm the hunter


I'm going hunting
I'm the hunter
I'm the hunter
I'm the hunter
I'm the hunter
I'm the hunter


[You just didn't know me!]


[You just didn't know me]



16 HORSES - SOUL COUGHING

At 14,000 times a second
The speaker moves
Magnetism pushes
The impulse through


But I can't keep that speed
I can't generate that frequency
What the sound pressure level means
Wants a randomized electrons - I can't read

And you're still not dancing


CHORUS:
She came pushing sixteen
She came pushing sixteen horses


I saw her and thought of her and thought of her
And I thought I heard a doorbell tone
And I thought I saw, thought I saw and thought I saw
You watching from the lawn

She went over bridges like the river was a dream, dream
Over bridges like the river was a dream, dream


CHORUS:
She came pushing sixteen
She came pushing sixteen horses


Two rings, two rings, two rings, clamp down
Quit it
Two rings, two rings, two rings, clamp down
Quit it
Two rings, two rings, two rings, clamp down
Quit it
Two rings, two rings, two rings, clamp down
Quit it


CHORUS 2:
She came pushing sixteen
She came pushing sixteen
She came pushing sixteen
She came pushing sixteen horses




CRYSTAL SHIP - X

Before you slip into unconsciousness
I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss -
Another kiss, another kiss


The days are bright and filled with pain
Enclose me in your gentle rain
The time we ran was too insane
We'll meet again; we'll meet again


Oh, tell me where your freedom lies -
The streets are fields that never die
Deliver me from reasons why
You'd rather die; I'd rather fly


The crystal ship is being filled
A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
A million ways to spend your time
When we get back, I'll drop a line



BLACK - SARAH MCLACHLAN

As the walls are closing in
And the colors fade to black
As my eyes are falling fast asleep to me
And I follow the tracks that lead me down
And I never follow what is right -
And they wonder sometimes when they see all the sadness
And pain the truth brings to light


CHORUS:
'Cause I can't see no reason
What is blind cannot see -
'Cause I want what is pleasin' -
All I take should be free
What I rob from the innocent ones
What I'd steal from the womb ...


[Included on the "Solace" version:

If I cried me a river of all my confessions,
Would I drown in my shallow regret?]


As the walls are closing in
And the colors fade to black
And the night is falling fast and deep into the sea
And in darkness, all that I can see -
The frightened and the weak
Are forced to cling to mistakes they know nothing of
At mercy are the meek


CHORUS:
'Cause I can't see no reason
What is blind cannot see -
'Cause I want what is pleasin' -
All I take should be free -
What I rob from the innocent ones
What I'd steal from the womb ...



TEOTIHUACAN - NOEL GALLAGHER

INSTRUMENTAL




THE X-FILES THEME - THE DUST BROTHERS

What is the explanation?
Who knows?
We will discover the truth
We will discover the truth
We will discover the truth
We will discover the truth
