The darkest hour's just before the dawn
The bottom dropped out of my world
My mind's reeling caught in no man's land
Break this deadlock for the life of me right to the end
[Pre-Chorus:]
Wake me, take me
Come ease my pain
Take a stroll down memory lane
Hope for those who remain
[Chorus:]
Undying where we dare
A diamond solitaire
Be and end of all
It is the clarion call
Devoting all
So carry the day
Consumed by passion, words cannot convey
And I'll be waiting in the wings
There is more to this than meets the eye
I live and breathe to brave the storm and kiss the night goodbye
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[2nd Chorus:]
Jewel in the crown
Can't keep a good man down
The force chasing the game
Us restless that we became
A winding lane
For those who break new ground
[Chorus:]
Undying where we dare
A diamond solitaire (solitaire)
Be and end of all (end of all)
It is the clarion call
Devoting all
So carry the day
Jewel in the crown
Can't keep a good man down (good man down)
The force chasing the game (chase the game)
Us restless that we became
A winding lane
For those who break new ground
Undying where we dare (undying where we dare)
A diamond solitaire (a diamond solitaire)
Be and end of all (be and end of all)
It is the clarion call (clarion call)
Undying devotion
(Jemaine)
I see you girls
Checkin' out my trunks
I see you girls
Checkin' out the front of my trunks
I see you girls
Lookin' at my junk
Then checkin' out my rump
Then back to my sugalumps
When I shake it, I shake it all up
You probably think that my pants have the mumps
It's just my sugalumps, bump-ba-bump
They look so good
That's why I keep 'em in the front
(Bret)
All the ladies checkin' out my sugalumps
(Jemaine)
They drive the ladies crazy
All these bitches
Checkin' out my britches
Put 'em in a trance
When I wear track pants
My dungarees
Make them hungry
Send 'em over the moon
When I don pantaloons
(Bret)
My sugalumps are two of a kind
Sweet and white and highly refined
Honeys try all kinds of tomfoolery
To steal a feel of my family jewelry
My cannonballs cause of kerfuffle
The ladies they hustle to ruffle my truffle
If you party with the Party Prince
You get two complimentary after-dinner mints
(Bret and Jemaine)
We see you girls
Checkin' out our trunks
We see you girls
Checkin' out the front of our trunks
We see you girls
Lookin' at our junk
Checkin' out our rumps
Then back to our sugalumps
(Arj)
Chillin' at my store
Doin' my thing
When in walks a guy
With his dick in a sling
I'm like, "Holy shit!
What's happened to you?"
He said,
"How much will you give for the family jewels?"
I said, "Ten bucks."
He said, "No way!"
"Ten bucks and a Frisbee"
He said, "Okay."
Then I took his sugalumps
And put 'em up in a display
And sold them as hacky-sacks
Later that day
(Bret and Jemaine)
All the ladies they want a taste of my sugalumps
Sweet sugalumps, yeah
All the ladies they want a taste of my sugalumps
Sweet sugalumps
Return To All (Scott Kelly)
As the morning clouds break
And the sun refused to show
I can't speak of what you left for me to give
Return, father, to all
Though our eyes were nothing new
And the chord was slashed and strewn
I can see that all we had is all there is
Tide brings jewels, fuel's burning love
I'm watching circle ladders from above
Sapphire (Redemption)
The road I've walked for my whole life
Has brought me to this crossroads
And I'm standing here beside you
I know you've never been someone
To take things on a leap of faith
Please trust me once and never cry again
Hold my had
We can take this slowly
And see where it might lead
Going Into Going Into You
And everything seemed to make sense
The first time that things seemed to fall in place
Just for a little while
And now my hopes and dreams are burning down
Claw out my eyes
I'd rather be blind
Than to see you turn around
And walk away from me
Tear off my ears
I'd rather be deaf
Than hear you
Saying goodbye
Lucky ones will never
Share what we've shared
For I'm damned to know
Exactly just what might have been
Can't somebody stop this?
I feel like I'm drowning
And everywhere I turn the water's deeper
It would tear out my heart
To be nothing more to you
Than a smile that occasionally
Crosses your face
Twenty five years from now
What will we have?
A pile of ash called
What could have been?
Treasures can slip through your fingertips
And sapphires melt in your hands
As I gaze in your jaded eyes
I pray that this road isn't ending
Walking down this road
I thought I felt you hold my hand
But looking I can see my palm is empty
How can you turn from me?
All that I wanted
Was to catch the stars and lay them at your feet
It would tear out my heart
To be nothing more to you
Than a smile that occasionally
Crosses your face
Treasures can slip through your fingertips
And sapphires melt in your hands
You turn to me with your jaded eyes
And I'm scared that I know how this ends
And everything fell into place
But now it is falling apart
I'm trying to hold on
But I can see you fading
Be quick-Or you've missed it
Sometimes when our backs are turned the choice is made
Once-In a lifetime
If you didn't see it coming then you're much too late
This self constructed prison
Is comfortable and warm
But I can't escape the feeling
That-there must be something more
Everyting we've been through
That's made us who we are
Has broughtus here and now the choice is ours to make
I'm begging you
I'm pleading on my knees
I can't believe that this was just a big mistake
From Jeweled Gemstone Memories
To Jaded Guarded Energies
To Just Gentle Victory
I know we could last
Tell me what I've got to do,
Tell me what I've got to do,
To Get Inside Get Inside your heart
Where did we go
When there are no more conspiracies?
When there's only you and only me
Seeing each other for the first time?
I pledge myself
If you stumble I will carry you
And wipe away the tears if you will mine
And I'm holding out for a miracle
But I'm scared to let go of the bird in my hand
And afraid taht I've run out of time for a second chance
I want to drown myself in your eyes
I want to believe but I'm scared that you're lying
Tell me there's hope for the ghost of a second chance
Chances are meant
Meant to be taken
But life's so fragile
And it's breaking into pieces
Somebody help me
I feel like I'm dying
And I'm reaching for your hand
But it's not there
And I pray we won't know
What we're missing
And we'll never imagine
What might have been
But twenty five years from now
I'll still hold on
To a fading dream
Of me and you
Treasures have slipped through my fingertips
And the sapphire vanished from my hand
I'll never forget the look in your eyes
When you lied and said this wasn't ending
Treasures have slipped through my fingrtips a
And the sapphire vanished from my hand
I say goodbye to your jaded eyes
As we reach our unnatural end
Memoirs Of An Officer And A Gentleman (Emerson, Lake & Palmer)
Prologue-The Education of A Gentleman
Walking through the city after recent rain
Heard ancient stones all shining murmur where are they?
How long before next hero's day
And the splendid show of drum and gun
Walking by the river one September eve
Saw questions rise in circles on that old dark stream
Where now are those who dared to dream
They would leave one jewel in England's hand
Gone to sleep they lie in flowered graves
For the visitors and Guidebook saved
But come the trumpet shattered dawn
Will the spirit they shared be reborn
Comrades in arms, may they rise, fight and shine again,
Till "who goes there", will be answered with friend again
Once there stood a man, alone, sword in his hand
In the face of the teeth and flame
And it was all in England's name
I was told how she grew, she alone shone her light on everyone
And if you made the first eleven then you'd be sure to get to heaven,
Like the captain of the school
I was taught how to win
And to lose with that "get you next time" smile,
Learned Latin verbs in fear of a beating
And for years thought central heating,
Was for just old people's homes
I was raised on the past, the Tower and Saint Paul's and Westminster
Escorted well-bred girls to dances, and learned to drive a horse in harness,
Through the English countryside
I was taught to behave, like an officer and a gentleman,
And when I finally marched from Sandhurst
I learned to put my fellow man first
And there was daily talk of war
I spent 1938 in the United States of America,
I grew to love it's many faces, and they had built some amazing places,
And I thought theyd come in on our side
Love at First Sight
Girls, oh there were girls
But they were just part of the social whirl
And I never took much notice
Until the night that I met you
Standing out there alone
Out on the terrace under the moon
From the moment that I kissed you
My life turned into a dream
I knew I loved you at first sight
And that you loved .. me
Was it really happening, or was it a dream?
I asked if you'd be mine
Feeding the white doves by the Serpentine
And when you said forever
I know that I almost cried
You all in white
The tears and the laughing
Nearly losing the damn ring
Yes, I do ... Yes, I will... keep you from harm
Those few short days
We spent together
Remembered forever
All the plans - for the house and for the children
I know I loved you at first sight
And that you loved... me
Did it really happen then, or was it a dream?
I knew when I saw your face
Opening orders, the time and the place
Oh, don't worry it won't last long
And I won't be far away
I'll try to write every day...
Letters From the Front
Got your letters at the front today
If you like the house well buy it straight away
Yes, its great now youre a full-time nurse
But do be careful with the air-raids - getting worse
Must end now... the push is on... were moving out...
All my love... see you soon
I'm writing to you on a convoy moving west
It's hell out here but were all trying to do our best
I learned today that I get two weeks leave in June
This time I promise you a real honeymoon
Must end now... take care my love... you're all the world
To me my love...see you soon
The telegram... dropped from my hand
She was all I had... I just don't understand
I see her now... in that white dress she wore
Those eyes and that smile
No one else... nevermore
Decorations and respect inside the club
Aren't compensation when you lose the one you love
But in the end, all that is left
Is the regiment and what it means
To be... an officer and a gentleman...

Das Allererste Mal
(Featuring Bernadette La Hengst) (Fettes Brot)
Eines Morgens wachst du auf und weiÃ???t genau heute ist der Tag,
nur wie es passieren wird weiÃ???t du nicht genau.
Du stolperst durch die Wohnung und ziehst deine Hose falschrum an,
keinen Bissen kriegst du runter, dein Magen ist zu flau.
Und dann steht sie pl�?�ötzlich vor dir im Wartezimmer oder Bus,
Du kennst sie aus deinen Tr�?�äumen diese ganz besondere Frau.
Nein du bist nicht �?�überrascht, du hast es immer schon gewusst
und dann f�?�ängst du an zu stammeln als w�?�ärst du Blau.
Das Allererste Mal als ich dich sah,
da wurd mir eines sofort klar
Baby wir haben das Zeug zu Deutschlands gr�?�ö�??tem Liebespaar.
Ich weiÃ??? nicht wo du herkommst, egal denn jetzt bist du ja da
Sag mal hast du schon was vor dieses Jahr?
Eigentlich bin ich ja ganz gern allein
ich mein nat�?�ürlich nur so ab und zu
wirklich Alleine will ja wohl keiner sein
nur lass mich bloÃ??? mit so 'nem Quatsch in Ruh'
Andererseits ist mir meine Zeit zu Schade
f�?�ür 'nen langweiliges Rendezvous
Na jedenfalls begann ich grade
an der Liebe zu zweifeln und dann kamst du
Das Allererste Mal als ich dich sah,
da wurd mir eines sofort klar
Baby wir haben das Zeug zu Deutschlands gr�?�ö�??tem Liebespaar.
Ich weiÃ??? nicht wo du herkommst, egal denn jetzt bist du ja da
Sag mal hast du schon was vor dieses Jahr?
Bernadette La Hengst, Dr. Renz
nur falls du uns nicht kennst
hierdrinnen brennts
Baby es tut mir leid
Ich muss dich anstarrn die ganze Zeit
Ich hoffe dass das dir nicht reicht
Doch keine Angst haben vor der Dunkelheit
Und ich f�?�ühl das es immer so bleibt
Ich will kein wenn und aber, Ich will kein Vielleicht
Von mir aus ist es Morgen soweit
Zusammen mit dir ertrage ich sogar die Einsamkeit
Du weiÃ???t bescheid
Ich weiÃ??? bescheid
Das Allererste Mal als ich dich sah,
da wurd mir eines sofort klar
Baby wir haben das Zeug zum Weltweit gr�?�ö�??ten Liebespaar.
Ich weiÃ??? nicht wo du herkommst, egal denn jetzt bist du ja da
Sag mal hast du schon was vor dieses Jahr?
Diamond In The Rough (Ratt)
as a little girl i came down to the water
with a little stone in my hand
and it would shimmer and sing
and i knew everything
in a little while i got steeped in authority
heaven only knows what when wrong
when there is nothing so cruel
than to bury that jewel when it was mine all along
and i'm gonna find it
you're shining, i can see you
you're smiling, that's enough well
i'm holding onto you, like a diamond in the rough
like a diamond in the rough
ever now and then i can see that i am getting somewhere
where i have to go is so deep
i was angry back then, and you know i still am
i have lost too much sleep and i'm gonna find it
you're shining, i can see you
you're smiling, that's enough well
i'm holding onto you, like a diamond in the rough
like a diamond in the rough
snake's in the grass better step on the gas
in my dreams i go down by the water
with a little girl in my arms and we shimmer and sing
and we know everything
as a little girl i came down
you're shining, i can see you
you're smiling, that's enough well
i'm holding onto you, like a diamond in the rough
like a diamond in the rough
It's Cool To Love Your Family (Feist)
In a dressmaker shop in Greece
The pins stick like tongues on poles or butts in an ashtray
Lunchtime packages, waxed and wrapped and held
Down a dusty road, inside and apron ford
It's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
I know because I love them more and more
You know my grandpa brought power to the plains/planes
Now he winks at me from thirty thousand feet
Now my uncle's got his face
And he takes the power to a different place
Hey hey he's ok
It's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
I know because I love them more and more
In the Copenhagen city morgue
The dead sleep in metal slips
Called and last
And someone loved them once
And someone loves them still
And someone misses them
And someone always will
You know that it's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
I know because I love them more and more
Birds Eye View (Tamara Stewart)
Zion whispers] I got a bird's eye view
[Girl in the background] Hip hop, is so many things you can say about it, know what I mean?
Like, on the real, hip hop is like, just, beautiful
Hip hop is life
[Verse 1]
From the first time I saw you, infatuation
Pulled to the side to provide conversation
Wild reputation but you were so cool
Any old fool knew that you was a jewel
Ghetto to ghetto, your influence settled
More hardcore than r&b but not metal
Blacker than a kennel, you made me feel mellow
Introduction to my life, I said "hello"
Meet me in a minute 'cause I gotta finish school
Some of my homies, they never finished puffin' woo's
Stayin' up late, always studying the tapes
The world watched you fall in love, I guess fate had a,
Grip on my mind state, I wanna rhyme, wait
I fell in line, getting signed at the wrong gates
And so my heart braced at first for real
But I would still be lovin' you 'cause deep is what I feel
[Chorus]
I got a bird's eye view (hip hop...the realness)
I be wit'chu, I be there wit'chu
I be wit'chu, I be there wit'chu
[x2]
[Verse 2]
She's the one I always count on, one that wouldn't leave me
One that's in the city always written in graffiti
One that keeps me company, when I'm all alone
She's my heart, my mind, my spirit and my bones
She's the only one I know that would go across the globe
Meet me in a foreign land, treat me like I'm home
Everything I own, give to her, she deserves it
Treats me like a king, every syllable is perfect
Searched through the earth for a reason just to be here
And since I met her every moment's like a leap year
Baby you can sleep here, you can stay with me
Anywhere you go, know I'm probably gon' be
Full of energy, and you never acting tired
You're everything I need, when I prayed, God supplied
You my chunky fire, blessings you provide
Always in my life 'til the day that I die
[Chorus x2]
(hip hop, hip hop, hip hop...is life)
Critical (Tamara Stewart)
[Zion I]
Yo checkout the superb tech
Cashin' checks through dialect
Doper than the gold around your neck
This is my manuscript to spit lyrics like fat spliffs
I show the whole damn world my gift
For Paris I'm speakin' upon
Powerful just like a pod
Positioned in the proper placement
Focus like militant deep as concentrational caverns
Devising secret plans on spitting atoms
I verbalize
Lust to bust
Just as dangerous
As watching Mt. Vesuvius erupt
Corrupt a data disk
From the super soul powered slums
I-N-I, Planet Asia make it bump, bump
I'm deep off in the trunk
SWATS call it crunk
The 15 inch whoofers make the beat go thump
I dump clips of pros ? goes
The chillin' is killin' with the illest type flows
[Hook]
[Nas 'Nas is Like'] "Rap legends presidents felt"
[Mobb Deep 'Survival of the Fittest'] "Put us together"
[GZA/Genius] "The outcome is Critical"
[Jeru The Damaja 'Mental Stamina'] "Set it off"
[Zion I]
Yo, vocally blessed to beat you into submission
I paddle units which protrude from the underside of trains
Do not touch I'm high voltage
Like the third electric
Emergency phones needed in every tunnel for the murder method
You're dealing with the armed forces
We wave warm torches
Through the trenches of the onslaughtness
? up next
I'm anticipated post my plan is to stay behind my every line stated
Deluxe, eon flux-uate what I pronunciate
Cold verses be lookin' out but y'all people got months to wait
Life as it is baby, Zion I got me flyin' high
My mind's inside music symbolic to I-N-I
This ain't the Sci-Fi Channel
We true and living legends of this beat freak committee
Clash Of the Titans through the vinyl
When we splash the Atlas with the rules of the game
We out the old school and came to drop a jewel on your brain
[Hook]
[Planet Asia]
My brother hit me on the game
Said that we original man
And we manifested here to spit slang
I thought a minute, and let it sink
Deep like the Titanic
We wider than the ocean of Atlantic
Pacifical mythical styles
In the west it's gettin' wild
I'm chillin' like the Sphinx upon the Nile
Reverberating
Why is you hatin' hip hop we creatin?
Across the desert sands we be bakin'
My melanin
The key to lock rock spots and flocks
Walk the rugged avenue with my B-Boy bop
It's evolution toss a pebble at the devil and smile
I'm rebellion while propelling freestyles
[Zion I]
From the bottom to the top I made a lot of em drop
Hip hop's the lifestyle of urban civilians and even cops
No it don't stop
Once again another classic fantastic rap shit
That'll make y'all MCs wanna practice
How to lock shit down like Daddy ?
I blaze mics for days
Hit the page light stage and burn Sage
Then engage
This ain't a faze or some played out gimmick
That's worth to ? for the fact
that most of y'all cat's is timid, vivid
Views of the do and don't don't apply,
to the uncompromising Planet Asia, Zion I
Worldwide renown
Zones of the chosen few
Verbal rhymes I cipher shots to leave holes in you
[Hook]
