Train - Drops of Jupiter
Now that shes back in the atmosphere,
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey.
She acts like summer and walks like rain.
Reminds me that theres time to change, hey, hey.
Since the return from her stay on the moon,
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey.
Tell me did you sail across the sun?
Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded?
And that heaven is overrated?
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star,
One without a permanent scar?
And did you miss me while you were looking at yourself out there?
Now that shes back from that soul vacation,
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey,
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo.
Reminds me that theres time to grow, hey, hey.
Now that she's back in the atmosphere,
I'm afraid that she might think of me as plain ol' Jane.
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land.
Tell me, did the wind sweep you off your feet?
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day,
And head back to the milky way?
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind?
Was it everything you wanted to find?
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there?
Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken?
Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you're wrong?
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone
Conversation,
The best soy latte that you ever had . . . and me?
Tell me, did the wind sweep you off your feet?
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day,
And head back toward the milky way?
Smash Mouth - All Star
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me.
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed.
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an L on her forehead.
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming,
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running.
Didn't make sense not to live for fun:
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb.
So much to do so much to see,
So what's wrong with taking the back streets?
You'll never know if you don't go.
You'll never shine if you don't glow.
Hey now, you're an all star. Get your game on. Go play.
Hey now, you're a rock star. Get the show on. Get paid.
And all that glitters is gold.
Only shooting stars break the mold.
It's a cool place and they say it gets colder.
You're bundled up now but wait 'til you get older.
But the meteor men beg to differ,
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture.
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin.
The waters getting warm so you might as well swim.
My worlds on fire, how about yours?
That's the way I like it and I never get bored.
Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas;
I need to get myself away from this place.
I said, "Yep, what a concept.
I could use a little fuel myself.
And we could all use a little change."
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming.
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running.
Didn't make sense not to live for fun:
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb.
So much to do so much to see,
So what's wrong with taking the back streets?
You'll never know if you don't go.
You'll never shine if you don't glow.
Train - Meet Virginia
She doesn't own a dress.
Her hair is always a mess.
You catch her stealin' she won't confess.
She's Beautiful.
Smokes a pack a day, oh wait,
That's me, but anyway,
She doesn't care a thing
About that, hey,
She thinks I'm beautiful.
Meet Virginia.
She never comprimises,
Loves babies and surprises,
Wears high heels when
She exercises.
Ain't it beautuiful?
Meet Virginia.
Well she wants to be the Queen.
Then she thinks I'll bow her scene.
Pulls her hair back as she screams,
"I don't really wanna be the Queen!"
Daddy wrestles alligators.
Mama works on carborators.
Her brother is a fine mediator
For the president.
And here she is again on the phone.
Just like me, hates to be alone.
We just like to sit home
and rip on the President.
Meet Virginia, mmmm...
Well, she wants to live her life.
Then she thinks about her life,
Pulls her hair back, as she screams,
"I don't really wanna live this life!"
She only drinks coffee at midnight,
When the moment is not right.
Her timing is quite unusual.
You see her confidence is tragic, but her intuitions magic,
and the shape of her body unusual.
Meet Virgina. I can't wait to
Meet Virginia.
Savage Garden - To the Moon and Back
She's taking her time, making up the reasons
To justify all the hurt inside.
Guess she knows from the smiles and the look in their eyes,
Everyone's got a theory about the bitter one.
They're saying, "Mama never loved her much"
And, "Daddy never keeps in touch
That's why she shies away from human affection".
But somewhere in a private place,
She packs her bags for outer space
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him,
She's sayin'...
"I would fly up to the moon and back if you'll be...
If you'll be my baby,
I've got a ticket for a world where we belong,
So would you be my baby?"
She can't remember a time when she felt needed.
If love was red, then she was color blind.
All her friends, well they've been trialed for treason
And crimes that were never defined.
She's saying, "Love is like a barren place,
And reaching out for human faith,
It's like a journey I just don't have a map for".
So baby's gonna take a dive and
Push the shift to overdrive.
Send a signal that she's hanging
All her hopes on the stars.
What a pleasant dream.
She's sayin...
"I would fly up to the moon and back if you'll be...
If you'll be my baby.
I've got a ticket for a world where we belong,
So would you be my baby?"
Hold on, hold on ...
Mama never loved her much
And Daddy never keeps in touch.
That's why she shies away from human affection.
But somewhere in a private place,
She packs her bags for outer space.
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him,
She's sayin...
"I would fly up to the moon and back if you'll be...
If you'll be my baby.
I've got a ticket for a world where we belong,
So would you be my baby?"
