"Night In Baghdad" lyrics
"Night In Baghdad"
And, oh, it's so beautiful
It's like the Fourth of July
It's like a Christmas tree
It's like the fireflies on a summer night
And I wish I could describe this to you better
But I can't talk very well now
'Cause I've got this damned gas mask on
So I'm just going to stick this microphone out the window
And see if we can hear a little better. Hello California?
What's the weather like out there now?
And I only have one question: Did you ever really love me?
Only when we danced. And it was so beautiful
It was like the Fourth of July
It was like fireflies on a summer night

Doesn't feel anything
American Flag is behind
If I could stand
To be...

He pulls at me like a cherry tree, and I can still move but I don't speak about...
Lucinda Williams - "Unsuffer Me" Unlock my love
And set me free
Come fill me up
With ecstasy
Surround my heartbeat
With your fingertips
Unbound my feet
Untie my wrists
Come in to my world
Of loneliness
And wickedness
And...
Mercury Rev - "Big Boss Man" Big boss man
Can you hear me when I call?
Big boss man
Can you hear me when I call?
Oh, you ain't so big
You're just tall, that's all
You got me working, boss man, working 'round the clock
I want me...
