Revolution

I could be a dreamer

I could be insane

But we don’t need no Superman

To paint a brighter day

We only need to gather

A million little flames

And if you sing along

I’m / Were gonna find a way

Here we come (2x)

Revolution!

Revolution!

We gotta come together

Believe in what I say

We haven’t got forever

Foxy lady come my way

Here we come (2x)

Revolution!

Revolution!

How long must we sing this

Song (2x)

Bring me Down

Is it unfair?

Would you beware?

If I might catch you in a stare?

Now tell me if its okay,

If I walk past your door today,

I’m running out of happy

words to say.

But I don’t need a funny line,

‘cause nobody laughs at a castle

that’s (crawling/crumbling) down

with every word you,

every game you,

every hey, hey, hey…

C’mon now tell me

Would it be a better day for you

If you, bring me down?

You got your coat and tie

and your looking so cool infront of

TV camera, yeah

All that just to tell us

we'll be gone

Now tell me,

is it all ok

if I told you you’re all

funky and gay?

Does anyone every have a

happy thing to say?

Ground

Could you sleep tonight

And be dreaming tight in your heaven?

Your warm heaven

Would you be feeling right

When children cold outside

dream in rain?

Dream in rain

Would you come down

From your pedestal?

Could you try and touch the ground?

Every day the mirror

stares you in the eyes

of your face / see your face

Can you watch television?

Ain’t it like the mirror?

See disgrace / see your face.

Would you come down

From your pedestal?

Could you try and touch the…

Maya on the dying tree,

The cockfight honesty

The sidewalk vendor’s

glorious symphony

Could you stare

Would you care, would you

Save your prayers

Save a prayer

Say a prayer

For the children of the rain.

20 Million

20 million diamonds crown the sky tonight

Silence for two lovers’ everything

They tell me whispering’s a virtue, and holding hands’ their game

‘Tis cold, it’s cold

And as I watch the candle (burn/turn) this might (away/to day)

My life collects another yesterday

Alone in the darkness, I am waiting for the one

While lovers wait for the sun, lay I

Waiting for the one.

Stalk the streets do lovers in this town tonight

20 million heartbeats holding hands

For them, it’s darkness that’s most precious,

but tell me who can I embrace?

The cold? There’s no one here to hold

Who’ll light the darkness with her name,

heal this blackout pain.

Ulan

Hiwaga ng panahon,

akbay ng ambon

Sa piyesta ng dahon,

ako’y sumilong

Daan-daang larawan ang nagdaraan

sa aking paningin

Daan-daang nakaraan ibinabalik

ng simoy ng hangin

Tatawa na lamang, at (ba’t hihikbi / bakit hindi?)

Ang aking damdamin, pniaglalruan ng baliw at ng ulan.

At sinong si mapapasayaw sa ulan,

At sinong si mababaliw sa ulan

Hinulog ng langit,

na siyang nag-ampon

Libu-libong ala-alang,

dala ng ambon

At sinong si aawit kapag umulan,

At sinong si mababaliw sa ulan,

At sinong di aawit….ulan!

Halik sa Araw

Pinagpapawisan sa sobrang init

Di mapakali, sa kaldero, sa impiyerno,

ang araw ay galit na galit na galit

Ganyan, ganyan, ganyan lang ang buhay,

minsa’y nakakainis,

kapai inabot ka ng malas ay wala ka nang ligtas,

maligo ka nalang ulit.

Hindi na baling magbaga ang buong mundo,

huwag lamang pare, mag-iinit ang ulo mo.

Humalik sa araw, relaks lang kayo

Humalik sa araw, daanin nyo nalang sa konting

Rock and Roll, o! ang init!

Wala nanamang eskwela, di ka b gagala?

Panahon na para magsaya, lakwatsa,

Lakwatsa lang ang gimik,

Baka sakaling makahanap ng pag-ibig.

Buong barkada’y kasama sa swimming,

Mga problema’y lunurin, sa bote ng inumin.

Sunog!

So bery hot in the Pihlipens!!!

Gravity

Somebody save me, ‘coz my mind is a train

And it don’t have a destination, and it don’t know my name

It keeps runnin’, runnin’, runnin’, runnin’,

well, that kinda explains,

why I see every single madness, but I cant see what is plain

Educations a (teacher / preacher), but it don’t teach me how to kiss

I ain’t no (preacher / teacher), but believe me when I tell u this…

What goes up, must come down

You’ll never get it til ya turn it around

What goes up, must come down

No I don’t believe in pictures, nothing can hold the world still

And I don’t believe in predictions, maybe just gravity

We keep runnin’, runnin’, runnin’, runnin’,

well it makes no sense to me,

we struggle with equations, simplicity’s the key

Well, it took me years to years, to learn what I knew all the time

I’m feelin’ high, I’m feelin’ low, and there’s where to go

I’m feelin’ high, I’m feelin low, do you love me?

Down up, down up, Gimme some of the funky chicken,

Groovy! Kiss!

214

Am I real? Do the words I speak before you make you feel,

that the love I lay for you will see no ending?

Well if you look into my eyes then you should know,

that there is nothing here to doubt, nothing to fear,

and you can lay your questions down ‘cause if you’ll hold me

we can fade into the night and you’ll know

The world could die, and everything may lie,

Still you shant cry

‘Cause time may pass, but longer than it’ll last

I’ll be by your side

Take my hand, and gently close your eyes so you could understand

that there’s no greater love tonight than what I’ve for you,

Well, if you feel the same way for me, than let go

We can journey to a garden no one knows.

Life is short my darling tell me that you love me

So we could fade into the night and you’ll know…

The world could die, and everything may lie,

Still you shant cry

‘Cause time may pass, and everything wont last

But I’ll be by your side,

Forever by your side,

So you wont cry

Hate

Well, if you’re happy then I’m blue

‘Cause I’m not so far, but not with you

And I can’t see, why we cant see each other

I telephone but you’re sleeping forever

I hate you for the things you do but I love you

And curse you for your beauty,

that makes me make some poetry ‘bout love

And I don’t think you even think about me

If only you were smiling, and if I was your reason

Tomorrow, I could die

I can only pray my absence will change you

Pretend that you’re the one who needs my love

But you celebrate, ‘coz yes why should you miss me?

When you know darn well I’d die, just to bring us together

And this is not a love song, don’t even think its your song.

Awit ng Kabataan

Natatawa sa akin kaibigan,

at nangangaral ang buong mundo

Wala na raw tayong mga kabataan,

sa ating mga ulo

Kung gusto niyo kaming sigawan,

bakit hindi niyo subukan?

Lalo lang kayong hindi maiintindihan

Ang awit ng kabataan,

ang awit ng panahon

Ang awit ng kabataan,

awitin natin ngayon

Hindi niyo kami mabibilang,

at hindi rin maikakahon

Marami kami ngunit iisa lamang

ang aming pasyon

At sa pagtulog ng gabi

maririnig ang dasal

Ng kabataang uhaw

sa tunay na pagmamahal

Nawawala, nagtatago,

naghaghahanap ng kaibigan

Nagtataka, nagtatanong,

kung kailan kami mapakikinggan

Kung gusto mo akong subukan,

bakit hindi mo subukan

Subukan mo akong pigilan,

subukan niyo kami!
