Lit Radio - Dedication Hour

Cheffie...

Wish you were here - Incubus

I dig my toes into the sand.
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket.
I lean against the wind, pretend that i am weightless and in this moment i am happy.

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here.

I lay my head onto the sand.
The sky resembles a backlit canopy with holes punched in it.
I'm counting ufo's.
I signal them with my lighter
and in this moment i am happy, happy.

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here.

The world's a roller coaster and I am not strapped in.
Maybe I should hold with care,but my hands are busy in the air.

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here.

You know who you are...

Everything To Everyone - Everclear

You put yourself in stupid places
Yes I think you know it's true
Situations where it's easy to look down on you
I think you like to be the victim
I think you like to be in pain
I think you make yourself a victim almost every single day
You do what you do
You say what you say
You try to be everything to everyone
You know all the right people
You play all the right games
You always try to be everything to everyone
Yeah you do it again
You always do it again
You say they taught you to read and write
Yeah they taught you how to count
I say they tought you how to buy and sell your own body by the pound
I think you like to be their simple toy
I think you love to play the clown
I think you are blind to the fact that the hand you hold is the hand that holds you down
Spin around and fall down
Do it again
You stumble and fall
Yeah why don't you ever learn
Spin around and fall down
Do it again
Come on now
Do that stupid dance for me
You do what you do
You say what you say
You try to be everything to everyone
You jump through the big hoop
You play all the right games
You try to be everything to everyone
Spin around and fall down
Do it again
You stumble and you fall
Yeah you do it again
Spin around and fall down
Do it again
You stumble and you fall

Dedicated to all

I walked around the world to ease my troubled mind
I left my body lying somewher in the sands of time
I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon
I feel there's nothing I can do here.

I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon
after all I knew it had to be something to do with you.
I really don't mind what happens now and then.
as long as you'll be my freind at the end

If I go crazy and will you still call me superman
If i'm alive and well will you be there a holding my hand.
i'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might, Kryptonite.

You call me strong, you call me week
but still your secrets I will keep
you took for granted all the times I never let you down
you stumbled in and bumped your head
if not for me then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you back on solid ground.

If I go crazy and will you still call me superman
If i'm alive and well will you be there a holding my hand.
i'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might, Kryptonite.




If I go crazy and will you still call me superman
If i'm alive and well will you be there a holding my hand.
i'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might, Kryptonite.
yahhhhhhhhh
If I go crazy and will you still call me superman
If i'm alive and well will you be there a holding my hand.
i'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might, Kryptonite.

wooo ooo oooo ooooo
wooo ooo oooo ooooo

For all our paranoid friends out there in the world

Flagpole Sita - Harvey Danger

i had visions, i was in them
i was looking into the mirror
to see a little bit clearer
the rotteness and evil in me

fingertips have memories
mine can't forget the curves of your body
and when i feel a bit naughty
i run it up the flagpole and see who salutes
(but no one ever does)

i'm not sick but i'm not well
and i'm so hot cause i'm in hell

been around the world and found
that only stupid people are breeding
the cretins cloning and feeding
and i don't even own a tv

put me in the hospital for nerves
and then they had to commit me
you told them all i was crazy
they cut off my legs now i'm an amputee, god damn you

i'm not sick but i'm not well
and i'm so hot cause i'm in hell
i'm not sick but i'm not well
and it's a sin to live so well

i wanna publish zines
and rage against machines
i wanna pierce my tongue
it doesn't hurt, it feels fine
the trivial sublime
i'd like to turn off time
and kill my mind
you kill my mind

paranoia paranoia
everybody's coming to get me
just say you never met me
i'm running underground with the moles, diggin holes

hear the voices in my head
i swear to god it sounds like they're snoring
but if you're bored then you're boring
the agony and the irony, they're killing me

i'm not sick but i'm not well
and i'm so hot cause i'm in hell
i'm not sick but i'm not well
and it's a sin to live so well

Let It Be | The Beatles

When I find myself in times of trouble,
mother Mary comes to me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness,
she is standing right in front of me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

And when the broken hearted people,
living in the world agree,
there will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is
still a chance that they will see,
there will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, let it be. Yeah.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
And when the night is cloudy,
here is still a light that shines on me,
shine on until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music,
mother Mary comes to me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

For: A friend.

Sonny Sharrock - Who Does She Hope to Be?

(no lyrics)

Fuck You (An Ode to No One) - Smashing Pumpkins

I'm never coming back
I'm never giving in
I'll never be the shine in your spit
I disconnect the act
I disconnect the dots
I disconnect the me in me
And you're mistaken, It's you that's faking
Living and breathing and dying too
This message is for anyoine who dares to hear a fool
You can't bring me back, you can't bring me back
Cause I give it all back to you
Thru sacred alleys, the living wrecks
Wreak their havoc upon this world
The disenchanted, the romantics,
The body and face and soul of you is gone down that deep black hole
Destroy the mind-destroy the body-but you cannot destroy the heart
And you, you make me so I need to disconnect
And you make it so real
I don't need your love to disconnect
To runaround kids in get-go cars
With vaseline afterbirths and neon coughs
Galaxies full of nobodies
Giving us the farewell runarounds
I took a virgin mary axe to his sweet baby jane, lost my innocence to a no good girl, scratch my
face with anvil hands, and coil my tongue around a bumblebee mouth
And I give it all back to you
No way, I don't need it, I don't need your love to disconnect
And you make it, so real, I don't need your love to disconnect
No way to disconnect
And you make it so real
I don't need your love to disconnect
No way to disconnect

fugazi | Song #1

Song number one is not a fuck you song
I'll save that thought until later on
You want to know if there's something wrong?

It's nothing

Everybody's talking about their home town scenes
And hurting people's feelings in their magazines
You want to know what it all means?

It's nothing

Fighting for a haircut? Then grow your hair
Crying for the music? I doubt you really care
Looking for an answer? You can find it anywhere

It's nothing

Life is what you want it to be
So don't get tangled up trying to be free
And don't worry what the other people see

It's nothing

Perky

Watching You

That's a good question
Why am I standing out here alone
I guess I don't know enough to come in from the rain
I was watching your window
From here below
I think I just might stay here all day
Cause I gotta do something

If I can't love you
I don't want to love you
If I can't hold you
I don't want to be thinking of you
And if you don't want me
I don't want to want you
And if you won't see me
I don't know what to do
But oh keep watching you
Until I see right through
Oh I keep watching you

You could throw me down a cigarette
I smoked my last one quite a while ago
No, I gave it to the man that swore he had no need
You know sometimes if I listen real close
I can hear the dark side of the moon
And there's always yesterday's Times if I care to read
And I gotta do something

If I can't love you
I don't want to love you
If I can't hold you
I don't want to be thinking of you
And if you don't want me
I don't want to want you
And if you won't see me
I don't know what to do
But oh keep watching you
Until I see right through
Oh I keep watching you

Sure I'm alright
No I'm not very cold
Every now and then I can feel the subway heat
So go on inside
I'll leave you alone
Anyway Bogart's on in the window down the street
And I gotta do something

If I can't love you
I don't want to love you
If I can't hold you
I don't want to be thinking of you
And if you don't want me
I don't want to want you
And if you won't see me
I don't know what to do
But oh keep watching you
Until I see right through
Oh I keep watching you

Te Necesito | Shakira

si es la lluvia de todos los días
que ha aumentado su nivel
ya la música no tiene el mismo
efecto que solía tener
tal vez haya vivido tanto
en tan poco y tan corto tiempo
que no sé ni que idioma hablo
ni que velas cargo dentro
de este entierro
siento que no tengo fuerzas ya
para saltar y agarrar y sol
y por más que yo intente
no me escucho ni mi propia voz
ya no se si he vivido diez mil días
o un día diez mil veces
y te sumo a mi historia
queriendo cambiar las pérdidas
por creces

te necesito, te necesito mi amor
dondequiera que tu estes
me hace falta tu calor
te necesito, te necesito mi amor
porque eres parte de mi
te necesito aquí
y es que no se vivir sin ti
no he aprendido...

y me encuentro así perdida
como una aguja en un pajar
como arenas movedizas
me sumerjo
entre mi soledad
ya no sé si he vivido
diez mil días
o un dia diez mil veces
y te sumo a mi historia
queriendo cambiar las
pérdidas por creces

te necesito, te necesito mi amor
dondequiera que tu estes
me hace falta tu calor
te necesito, te necesito mi amor
porque eres parte de mi
te necesito aquí
y es que no se vivir sin ti
no he aprendido...

The Middle


Hey, don't write yourself off yet
It's only in your head
You feel left out or
Looked down on
Just try your best
Try everything you can
And don't you worry
What they tell themselves
When you're away
It just takes some time
Little girl you're in the middle
It'll up the ride
Everything will be just fine
Everything will be all right
Hey, you know
They're all the same
You know you're doing
Better on your own
So don't buy in
Live right now
Yeah, just be yourself
It doesn't matter
If it's good enough
For someone else
It just takes some time
Little girl you're in
The middle of the ride
Everything will be just fine
Everything will be all right
It just takes some time
Little girl you're in
The middle of the ride
Everything will be just fine
Everything will be all right
Hey, don't write yourself off yet
It's only in your head
You feel left out or
Looked down on
Just do your best
Do everything you can
And don't you worry
What the bitter hearts
Are gonna say
It just takes some time
Little girl you're in
The middle of the ride
Everything will be just fine
Everything will be all right
It just takes some time
Little girl you're in
The middle of the ride
Everything will be just fine
Everything will be all right

FRIEND LIKE ME - from Aladdin



Well Ali Baba had them forty thieves
Scheherazad-ie had a thousand tales
But master you in luck 'cause up your sleeves
You got a brand of magic never fails
You got some power in your corner now
Some heavy ammunition in your camp
You got some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and how
See all you gotta do is rub that lamp
And I'll say

Mister Aladdin, sir
What will your pleasure be?
Let me take you order
Jot it down
You ain't never had a friend like me
No no no

Life is your restaurant
And I'm your maitre'd
C'mon whisper what you want
You ain't never had a friend like me

Yes sir, we pride ourselves on service
You're the boss
The king, the shah
Say what you wish
Its yours! true dish
How about a little more Baklava?

Have some of column "A"
Try all of column "B"
I'm in the mood to help you dude
You ain't never had a friend like me

Can your friends do this?
Do your friends do that?
Do your friendd pulls this out their little hat?
Can your friends go, poof!
Well, looky here
Can your friends go, Abracadabra, let 'er rip
And then make the sucker disappear?

So doncha sit there slack jawed, buggy eyed
I'm here to answer all your midday prayers
You got me bona fide, certified
You got a genie for your charge d'affaires
I got a powerful eurge to help you out
So what-cha? I really want to know
You got a list that's three miles long, no doubt
Well, all you gotta do is rub like so- and oh

Mister Aladdin, sir, have a wish or two or three
I'm on the job, you big nabob
You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never had a friend like me
You ain't never had a friend like me, hah!

A sweet gesture long overdue from my point of view. I regret I missed this for so long. A song I never paid attention to now with more meaning than any I would have ever given it credit for. This is for you Lexie. It rocks like you do:

Bourgeois Kitten
by Blinker the Star

Solid as a candy in the sun
I'm a boy that's new and overrun
more like an extraction from a whole
A heart's something in almost everyone

Walked so far one night at home
met a friend and sent him off alone
no patterns anywhere so
I shrugged off what I learned and blew off

Drank it through
Cuz I'm so new
Not like I am

Got pushed to the ground by a bad girl
had a smile on my face as i drove off
"You see I've got a million options,
I'll fuck through them all", just watch them fall

I watch them fall
I need them all

to the blue Angel boy - buck up lil camper

weezer | Across the Sea

You are 18 year old girl who live in small city of Japan
and you heard me on the radio about one year ago
and you're wanting to know all about me and my hobbies
my favorite food and my birthday

Why are you so far away from me?
I need help and you're way across the sea
I could never touch you - I think it would be wrong
But I've got your letter and you've got my song

They don't make stationery like this where I'm from - so fragile, so refined
So I sniff and I lick your envelope and fall to little pieces every time
I wonder what clothes you wear to school; I wonder how you decorate your room
I wonder how you touch yourself and curse myself for being across the sea

At 10 I shaved my head and tried to be a monk
I thought the older women would like me if I did
You see, ma, I'm a good little boy
It's all your fault, momma, it's all your fault
goddamn, this business is really lame
I gotta live on an island to find the juice
So you send me your love from all around the world
As if I could live on words and dreams and a million screams
oh, how I need a hand in mine to feel.

I'm touched.

Thank you. I don't know what else to say right now.

Re: I'm touched.

Big legs, tight skirt
Bout to drive me out of my mind

Joan Armatrading---The Weakness on Me

I'm not the sort of person who falls in and quickly out of love
But to you, I give my affection, right from the start.
I have a lover who loves me - how could I break such a heart?
Yet still you get my attention.

Why do you come here, when you know I've got troubles enough?
Why do you call me, when you know I can't answer the phone?
And make me lie when I don't want to,
And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool?
Make me stay when I should not?
If you're so strong then resolve the weakness in me.
Why do you come here, and pretend to be just passing by?
I need to see you - I need to hold you - tightly.

Feeling guilty,
And I'm worried, and I'm waking from a tormented sleep
'Cause this old love, you know it has me bound,
But this new love cuts so deep.
If I choose now, I'm bound to lose out;
One of you is gonna have to fall...
I need you, baby.

Why do you come here, when you know I've got troubles enough?
Why do you call me, when you know I can't answer the phone?
And make me lie when I don't want to,
And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool?
Make me stay when I should not?
If you're so strong then resolve the weakness in me.
Why do you come here, and pretend to be just passing by?
I need to see you - I need to hold you - tightly.

Bad- U2...for Rose

If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, yes I would
If I could, I would
Let it go
Surrender
Dislocate

If I could throw this
Lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you walk, walk away
Into the night
And through the rain
Into the half-light
And through the flame

If I could through myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
Into the light
And to the day

To let it go
And so to fade away
To let it go
And so fade away

I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no, no

If you should ask then maybe they'd
Tell you what I would say
True colors fly in blue and black
Bruised silken sky and burning flag
Colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes

If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go...

This desperation
Dislocation
Separation
Condemnation
Revelation
In temptation
Isolation
Desolation
Let it go

And so fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
To let it go
And so to fade away

I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no, no

Called up my mama, said I'm in love with a stripper, yo

Ten grand, let me see you shake it like you got no
bones in your body and you was made to be a celebrity
Twenty grand, know it's a sin, but before me you show
me a little more skin it would fulfill my fantasy
Thirty grand, to the highest bidder but Chris Rock

Forty grand, looked into her eyes, I saw tears falling
down, type of tears that money couldn't buy

[Wyclef]
Excuse me, what is your name?
[Hope]
Uh, my name is Hope, yo

Yo, tantalizing teaser
Table-top pleaser

Mastercard a Visa
Lap dance fantasy
Picture us on and on white canopy
Wyclef extended his hand to me
Like Billy D. said he's feelin me
Take me away from here, so far
Where they ride horses, no cars
No more stripping in bars
Me and you 'Clef, against the odds


(Yo a lot of y'all sitting with y'all girls

Talking bout, I don't be going to the strip joints'
You lying man! You'd be surprised who you see up in there man.
I got one question for you liars, man)

Shot callers, Wasn't you a preacher?
You calling her a hooker? He without sin cast the first stone.
I met her on the subway, she gave me that VIP card
And told me if I ever have problems,
Don't hesitate to come by, yeah, yeah, yeah

Call up my mama said I'm in love with a stripper yo!

(Yo baby, can I get another lap dance? I tell you I
got nothing but funny money, man. New York Dogs)
