U CAN'T TOUCH THIS (M.C. Hammer)
My-my-my-my music hits me so hard makes me say oh my Lord
I told you homeboy u can't touch this
Fresh new kicks and pants
Yo I told you u can't touch this
Give me a song or rhythm
That's word because you know
Go with the flow in a spin if you can't move to this
U can't touch this
Every time you see me that Hammer's just so hype
U can't touch this (oh-oh oh oh oh-oh-oh) (x2)
THE LADY IN RED (Chris Deburgh)
I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight
**CHORUS:
I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight
[chorus]
I never will forget the way you look tonight
ALL I WANNA DO (Sheryl Crow)
This ain't no disco
All I wanna do is have a little fun before I die
And he's plain ugly to me, and I wonder if he's ever
We are drinking beer at noon on Tuesday
And they drive their shiny Datsuns and Buicks
**Chorus:
I like a good beer buzz, early in the morning
And a happy couple enters the bar
[Chorus]
Otherwise the bar is ours, the day and the night
[Chorus]
HELLO AGAIN (Niel Diamond)
Hello again hello
Hello my friends hello
Lately it's been crazy
Hello again hello
Hello my friends hello
THE LONGEST TIME (Billy Joel)
Oh, oh, oh
Once I thought my innocence was gone
Oh, oh, oh
Maybe this won't last very long
Who knows how much further we'll go on
I had second thoughts at the start
I don't care what consequence it brings
PIANO MAN (Billy Joel)
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
He says, "Son, can you play me a melody?
La la la, de de da
**Chorus:
Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
Oh, la la la, de de da
Now Paul is a real estate novelist
And the waitress is practicing politics
[Chorus]
It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
Oh, la la la, de de da
[Chorus]
CANDLE IN THE WIND '97 (Elton John)
You called out to our country,
And it seems to me you lived your life
And your footsteps will always fall here,
Loveliness we've lost;
And even though we try,
Goodbye England's rose,
DANIEL (Elton John)
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
They say Spain is pretty though I've never been
Daniel my brother you are older than me
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
U can't touch this (x2)
U can't touch this (oh-oh oh oh oh-oh-oh) (x2)
Thank you for blessing me with a mind to rhyme and to hype beat
That's good when you know you're down
A superbowl homeboy from Oaktown
And I'm known as such
And this is a beat uh u can't touch
Yeah that's how we're livin' and you know u can't touch this
Look in my eyes man u can't touch this
You know let me bust the funky lyrics u can't touch this
You got it like that now you know you wanna dance
So move out of your seat
And get a fly girl and catch this beat
While it's rollin' hold on pump a little bit
And let me know it's going on like that like that
Cold on a mission so pull on back
Let 'em know that you're too much
And this is a beat uh u can't touch
Why you standing there man u can't touch this
Yo sound the bells school is in sucker u can't touch this
Making 'em sweat that's what I'm giving 'em
Now they know when you talk about the Hammer
You talk about a show that's hyped and tight
Singers are sweatin' so pass them a mic
Or a tape to learn what it's gonna take
And now he's gonna burn
The charts legit either work hard
Or you might as well quit
U can't touch this (oh-oh oh oh-oh-oh) (x2)
Break it down
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh) (x2)
Stop Hammer time
Then you probably are dead
So wave your hands in the air
Bust throught the moves run your fingers through your hair
This is it for a winner
Dance to this and you're gonna get thinner
Move slide your rump
Just for a minute let's all do the bump
Bump bump bump yeah
Look man u can't touch this
You'll probably get hyped boy 'cause you know you can't u can't touch this
Ring the bell school's back in break it down

Stop Hammer time
I'm dope on the floor and I'm magic on the mic
Now why would I ever stop doing this
With others makin' records that just don't hit
I toured around the world from London to the bank
It's Hammer go Hammer
It's a Hammer you Hammer and the rest go and play
U can't touch this (oh-oh oh-oh-oh)

Too hype can't touch this
Get me outta here u can't touch this
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I've never seen you shine so bright
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance
They're looking for a little romance
Given half a chance
And I've never seen that dress you're wearing
Or that highlights in your hair
That catch your eyes
I have been blind
The lady in red is dancing with me
Cheek to cheek
There's nobody here
It's just you and me
It's where I wanna be
But I hardly know this beauty by my side
I'll never forget the way you look tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright you were amazing
I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side
And when you turned to me and smiled it took my breath away
And I have never had such a feeling such a feeling
Of complete and utter love, as I do tonight
The lady in red
My lady in red
This ain't no country club either, this is L.A....
Says the man next to me out of nowhere
It's apropos of nothing he says his name is William
But I'm sure he's Bill or Billy or Mac or buddy
Had a day of fun in his whole life
In the bar that faces the giant car wash
And the good people of the world
Are washing their cars on their lunch breaks
Hosing and scrubbing as best they can
In skirts and suits
Back to the phone company, the record stores, too
Well, they're nothing like Billy and me
'Cause...
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one...
All I wanna do is have some fun
Until the sun comes up over
Santa Monica Boulevard
Billy likes to peal the labels from his bottles of bud
He shreds them on the bar then he lights up every match
In an oversized pack letting each one burn
Down to his thick fingers before blowing and
Cursing them out, he's watching
The bottles of bud as they spin on the floor
Dangerously, close to one another
The bartender looks up from his want ads
And the car wash, too, the matches and the
Buds, and the clean and dirty cars,
The sun and the moon , 'Cause
I just called to say hello
I couldn't sleep
At all tonight
And I know its late
I just couldn't wait
I just called to let you know
I think about you every night
When I'm here alone
And your there at home
Hello
Maybe I'm to blame
Won't you put your heart above your head
We've been thru it all and you love me just the same
And when your not there
I still need to hear
Its good to need you so
Its good to want you like I do
I feel this way when I hear you say
Hello
Its good to need you so
Its good to want you like I do
I feel this way when I hear you say
Hello
For the longest time
Oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
If you said goodbye to me tonight
There would still be music left to write
What else could I do
I'm so inspired by you
That hasn't happened for the longest time
Now I know that happiness goes on
That's where you found me
When you put your arms around me
I haven't been there for the longest time
For the longest time
Oh, oh, oh
For the longest
I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
And the greatest miracle of all
Is how I need you
And how you needed me too
That hasn't happened for the longest time
But you feel so right
And I could be wrong
Maybe I've been hoping too hard
But I've gone this far
And it's more than I hoped for
Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone
I'll take my chances
I forgot how nice romance is
I haven't been there for the longest time
I said to myself
Hold on to your heart
Now I know the woman that you are
You're wonderful so far
And it's more than I hoped for
I have been a fool for lesser things
I want you so bad
I think you ought to know that
I intend to hold you for the longest time
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Makin' love to his tonic and gin
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"
La la, de de da da da
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
As the smile ran away from his face
"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place"
La la, de de da da da
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talkin' with Davy who's still in the navy
And probably will be for life
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinkin' alone
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
To forget about life for a while
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say, "Man, what are you doin' here?"
La la, de de da da da
Goodbye England's rose;
may you ever grow in our hearts.
You were the grace that placed itself
where lives were torn apart.
and you whispered to those in pain.
Now you belong to heaven,
and the stars spell out your name.
like a candle in the wind:
never fading with the sunset
when the rain set in.
along England's greenest hills;
your candle's burned out long before
your legend ever will.
these empty days without your smile.
This torch we'll always carry
for our nation's golden child.
the truth brings us to tears;
all our words cannot express
the joy you brought us through the years.
from a country lost without your soul,
who'll miss the wings of your compassion
more than you'll ever know.'
I can see the red tailed eyes heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
Well Daniel says it's the best place that he's ever seen
Oh and he should know, he's been there enough
Lord I miss Daniel, oh I miss him so much
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heel
Your eyes have died but you see more than I
Daniel you're a star in the face of the sky
I can see the red tailed eyes heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
Oh God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
