THANK U
How about getting off of these antibiotics
How about stopping eating when I’m filled up
How about them transparent dangling carrots
How about that ever elusive kudo
Thank you indiaThank you terror
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you frailty
Thank you consequence
Thank you thank you silence
How about me not blaming you for everything
How about me enjoying the moment for once
How about how good it feels to finally forgive you
How about grieving it all one at a time
Thank you indiaThank you terror
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you frailty
Thank you consequence
Thank you thank you silence
The moment I let go of it was
The moment I got more than I could handle
The moment I jumped off of it was
The moment I touched down

How about remembering your divinity
How about unabashedly bawling your eyes out
How about not equating death with stopping

IRONIC

Alanis_Morissette_ironic

An old man turned 98 . He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay.
It's a death royal pardon .two minutes too late.
Isn't it ironic? don't you think?

It's like rain on your wedding day. It's a free ride when you've already paid It's the good advice but you just didn't take.
Who would've thought... it figures ....

Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly. He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye.He waited his whole damn life to take that flight ,
And as the plane crashed down he thought "Well, isn't this nice." And isn't it ironic ... don't you think

(repeat chorus) Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when You think everything's gone wrong and everthing blows up In your face

A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams, and then meeting his beautiful wife And isn't it ironic... don't you think? A little too ironic.. and yeah I really do think...
(repeat chorus) Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you And life has a funny way of helping you out Helping you out

I could be 5____________________ or 6_____________ And you wouldn't know the difference
Or would you?
In Santa Monica, all the people got 7___________ Like Jake or Mandy and8 ______________ too

Taipei City
In Taipei City, in the summer time, The stressful people so hetic
I walk into the Air Condition room
In Taipei City, you get your coffee from The longest veranda on the sidewalks
Where people dress much alike
Beauty so unfolded, everywhere you turn It's there.
I sit and wonder what am I doing here?

But on the internet I am anyone I am anything I want to be. I could be cute Jolin or cool Jay And you wouldn't know the difference Or would you?

In Taipei City, all the people got brand name purses
Like LV or Coach And stylish hair too
In Taipei City, on the boulevard, You'll have to duck those
blind cooter riders or reckless taxi drivers Or they'll run you over
I never felt so sweltering Never felt so burning hot
I never wanted something less than this

You can change your life (if you wanna)
You can change your clothes (if you wanna)
If you change your mind, well that's the way it goes
But I'm gonna keep your jeans, and your old black hat (cause I wanna)
They look good on me, you're never gonna get them back
At least not today, not today, not today,
cause…
Chorus:If it's over, let it go and
Come tomorrow, it will seemSo yesterday, so yesterday
I'm just a bird that's already flown away
Laugh it off and let it go and
When you wake up, it will seem
So yesterday, so yesterday
Haven't you heard that I'm gonna be okay?
(Ha, Okay)You can say you're bored (if you wanna)
You could act real tough (if you wanna)
You could say you're torn, but I've heard enough
Thank you, you've made my mind up for, me
When you started to ignore, me
Do you see a single tear?
It isn't gonna happen here
At least not today, not today, not today, cause…Chorus: 1x
If you're over me, I'm already over you
If it's all been done, what is left to do?
How can you hang up if the line is dead?
If you wanna walk out, step ahead
If you're moving on, I'm already gone
If the light is off, then it isn't on
At least not today, not today, not today, cause…

clock by coldplay

The lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Have brought me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and I plead
Singing
Come out of the things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head
And a trouble that can't be named
A tiger's waiting to be tamed
Singing
You are
You are
Confusion that never stops
The closing walls and the ticking clocks
Gonna come back and take you home
I could not stop, that you now know
Singing come out upon my seas
Cursed missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure
Or am I part of the disease
Singing
You are, you are
You are, you are
You are, you are
You are, you are
And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares
You are, you are
Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go (You are)
Home, home where I wanted to go (You are)

Good People by Jack Johson

You win. It's your show, now. So what's it gunna be?
Cause people will tune in. How many train wrecks do we need to see?
Before we lose touch of. We thought this was low. It's bad gettin worse so

[Chorus:]Whered all the good people go? I've been changin channels,
I don't see them on the tv shows. Whered all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow.

They got this and that andWith a rattle a tat
Testing one two,Now whatcha gunna do?Bad news, misused,Got too much to loseGimme some truthNow whos side are we on? Whatever you say
Turn on the boob tube.I'm in the mood to obey
So lead me astray by the way, now.
Where'd all the good people go? I've been changin channels
I dont see them on the tv shows.
Whered all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow
Sitting round feeling far away
So far away but I can feel the debrisCan you feel it? Yo interrupt me from a friendly conversation To tell me how great its all gunna be
You might notice some hesitation.
Cause what's important to you is not important to me.
Way down by the edge of your reasons
Its beginning to show And all I wanna know is..
Whered all the good people go? I've been changin channelsI dont see them on the tv shows
Whered all the good people go?We got heaps and heaps of what we sow.They got this and thatWith a rattle a tatTesting one, twoNow what you gonna do?Bad news, misused, gimme some truth.You got too much to lose
Whose side are we on?Whatever you sayRun the resolut but in the mood to obey Station to station desensitizing the nation

wreck-Anything that has been thus ruined or disabled
heap-A large quantity; lot.
sow-To strew seed for growth. sow the wind and reap the whirlwind

YELLOW TAXI

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
[Vanessa Carlton]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop
[Adam]
They took all the trees, and put em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them
No, no, no
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise, and put up a parking lot
[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop
[Adam]
Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT
I don't care about spots on my apples,
Leave me the birds and the bees
Please
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey now, they paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not?
[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop
[Adam]
Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi took my girl away
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Well, don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey hey hey
Paved paradise and put up a parking lot
[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop
[Adam, Vanessa]
I don't wanna give it
Why you wanna give it
Why you wanna giving it all away
Hey, hey, hey
Now you wanna give it
I should wanna give it
Now you wanna giving it all away
Hey, paved paradise to put up a parking lot

R U happy now

Now, don't just walk away
Pretending everything's ok
And you don't care about me
And I know there's just no use
When all your lies become your truth and I don't care...
yeah, yeah, yeah
Could you look me in the eye
And tell me that you're happy now, ohhh, ohhh
Would you tell it to my face or have I been erased,
Are you happy now? Are you happy now?
You took all there was to take, And left me with an empty plate And you don't care about it, yeah.
And I have given up this game
I'm leaving you with all the blame cause
I don't care, yeah, yeah yeah,
Could you look me in the eye? And tell me that you're happy now, oohh oohhh
Would you tell it to my face or have I been erased, Are you happy now? Ohhh, ohhhhAre you happy now?
Do you have everything you want?
You could never give something you aint got
You can't run away from yourselfCould you look me in the eye?
and tell me that you`re happy now, oohh oohhhcome on tell it to my face or have i been erased, are you happy now?
Ohhh, ohhhhare you happy now?Would you look me in the eye?

Cause I'm happy now, ohhh, ohhhAre you happy now?
