Plato's Cave [The Falling Wallendas featuring Todd Sucherman]

Image
Plato's Cave Written by Allen Keller and Scott Bennett Lead Vocals by  Scott Bennett I tried to stay in one night But too many mirrors and too much light Crawled from my apartment to Plato's Cave Like a worm to a freshly dug grave Phil Spector's wall of sound Lay in pretty pieces on the ground I had nothing to say I said 'til I was blue in the face Some yellow-fingered girl offered me some skin (She was ecstasy thin) But those girls they don't want to fuck (They just want to touch) Dance light poured from every glory hole Sinatra at CBGB's Segovia on his Danelectro I killed another cigarette Asked everybody "Am I having fun yet?" So I slipped into a Susse Chalet (Wearing candy lingerie) Popped a quarter in the bed A couple of reds Pulled a plastic bag over my head My whole life passed in front of me I saw Linda Lovelace As the statue of liberty

Over Now [Coverdale/Page featuring Ricky Phillips]

Over Now Written by   David Coverdale, Jimmy Page Lead Vocals by David Coverdale You said you'd give me love Instead you caused me pain You made me curse and slam the door And hang my head in shame But it's over now It's over now You talked to me of virtue And sang a song so sweet But all I know is I could smell The perfume of deceit And it's over now It's over now You told me of your innocence And I believed it all But your best friend is your vanity And the mirror on the wall It's over now I turned away from what I heard And everything I saw But now I see the light of day I release the dog of war So what ya gonna do when the truth pays you a call How you gonna feel when you finally lose it all How you gonna look standing up against the wall What ya gonna do, what ya gonna say when you feel the hammer fall I'm gonna see you crawl You took your pills and washed them down And then you talked for hours I tried to build a garden But you trampled all the flowers...

Who Shot Daddy? [Dennis DeYoung]

Who Shot Daddy? Written by Dennis DeYoung Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung Sophistication really got up this time Your hipness quota's up to 9.9 You never felt stronger, felt so alive Ain't no problem you just need one more line Pay no attention to your family, your friends Burn up that candle, baby, at both ends Don't need no lecture from no man on T.V. No cocaine hotline You say they can't mean me Who shot Daddy, who is to blame Got him hooked on somethin' Made him act so damned insane Who killed momma, left her this way Who'll tell the children, come the judgement day Just a recreation, nonaddictive and fun Just about as harmless as a loaded gun You're so together and it's under control Who are ya foolin', there's a crack in your soul Who shot Daddy, who is to blame Got him hooked on somethin' Made him act so damned insane Who killed momma, left her this way Who'll tell the children, come the judgement day Blow all your money, blow on you...

You wanna dance, Maggie, dance You gotta dance, Maggie, dance Maggie turned 19 yesterday She thinks she knows everything Headin' non-stop for her roaring twenties And whatever comes in between She's gettin' ready to play with fire I know she's itchin' to play The man on the corner's got some news for you Maggie Better listen to what he say You wanna dance, Maggie, dance You gotta dance, Maggie, dance She's out on her own Headin...

Scattered [Glen Burtnik]

Listen on YouTube (from the album) Scattered Written by Glen Burtnick, Patti Maloney, David Prater Lead Vocals by Glen Burtnick Look at yourself in the mirror Whatever happened to you? I see a little girl caught in a mixed up world Are you happy with the things that you do? Oh - I won’t be your stepping stone, oh, this time you’re on your own and you’re Scattered shattered, driving too fast You’re heading for nowhere - both feel on the gas Scattered shattered living a lie So come on and kiss me one kiss goodbye You’re the life of the party - you’re the beat that don’t stop Do those lines on the bars, associate you with the stars Or is it sleeping your way to the top? Oh - banging on that door of fame Come morning they won’t remember your name You’re so scattered Scattered shattered, driving too fast You’re heading for nowhere - both feel on the gas Scattered shattered living a lie So come on and kiss me one kiss goodbye Get me out here, somebody get, someone get me out Don’t need no gi...
