Gorillaz - On Melancholy Hill (2010)



Up on melancholy hill
There's a plastic tree
Are you here with me?
Just looking out on the day
Of another dream

Well you can't get what you want
But you can get me
So let's set up and see
'Cause you are my medicine
When you're close to me
When you're close to me

So call in the submarine
'round the world we'll go
Does anybody know
If we're looking out on the day
Of another dream?

If you can't get what you want
Then you come with me

Up on melancholy hill
A manatee?
Just looking out on the day
When you're close to me
When you're close to me

When you're close to me.

James Vincent McMorrow - This Old Dark Machine (2011)



(verse 1)

spring it came upon us,
every insect filled the air
dropped their wings upon my brother,
cast their shadows on his hair

if we follow where they're leading,
we will surely come before
some unseen and wondrous magic
made of visions to explore

(chorus)
near the town where we were living
was an old abandoned farm
every year we'd plant an orchid
in the shelter of it's arm
to protect us from the madness
of the future still to come
it will be like this forever
I will keep you safe from harm

(verse 2)

then they caught us in the summer
dressed in fathers finest clothes
you the hat he wore to market
I the jacket filled with holes

I've been searchins all these hours
for a hand as pale as bone
that would keep the strongest sunlight
and reflect the brightest stone

(chorus 2)

near the town where we were living
was a warm and fragrant smell
of the orchid we had planted
now a forest tall and well
what a statue to our greatness
what a story all will tell
they'll remember us forever
they'll remember where we fell

(bridge)

this old dark machine, it shakes and it shudders
pulls to the left, then dies near the gutter
but still in the road, the traffic is silent
the people they stare, and then they turn violent
if they should touch, the hem of your dress
I would rise like a lion, strike out again
the faithful they wait, the faithful they wait
by the sign

(chorus 3)

near the town where we were living
came a loud and joyous sound
as the earth and all her beauty
picked us up from off the ground
carried far across the mountain
to a kingdom never bound
we will live like this forever
I will love you
I will love you
I will love you.

The High Numbers - Zoot Suit (1964)



I'm the hippiest number in town and I'll tell you why,
I'm the snappiest dresser right down to my inch wide tie,
And to get you wise I'll explain it to you,
A few of the things that a face is supposed to do.

I wear zoot suit jacket with side vents five inches long,
I have two-tone brogues yeah you know this is wrong.
But the main thing is unless you're a fool,
Ah you know you gotta know, yeah you know, yeah you gotta be cool.

So all you tickets I just want you to dig me,
With my striped zoot jacket that the salts can plainly see,
So the action lies with all of you guys,
Is how you look in the other, the other, yeah, the other cat's eye.

Well don't you see, well don't you see, well don't you see now,
Well don't you see now, come on baby, 'cause don't you see now, oh baby,
Well don't you see now, you drive me wild, hmm hmm hmm, you're crazy-looking now.

The Smiths - I Started Something I Couldn't Finish (1987)



The lanes were silent
There was nothing, no one, nothing around for miles
I doused our friendly venture
With a hard-faced, three-word gesture

I started something
I forced you to a zone and you were clearly
Never meant to go
Hair brushed and parted
Typical me, typical me, typical me
I started something
And now I'm not too sure

I grabbed you by the gilded beams
Uh, that's what tradition means
And I doused another venture
With a gesture that was absolutely vile

I started something
I forced you to a zone and you were clearly
Never meant to go
Hair brushed and parted
Typical me, typical me, typical me
I started something
And now I'm not too sure

I grabbed you by the gilded beams
Uh, that's what tradition means
And now eighteen months' hard labour seems fair enough

I started something
I forced you to a zone and you were clearly
Never meant to go
Hair brushed and parted
Typical me, typical me, typical me
I started something
And now I'm not too sure

I started something
I started something
Typical me, typical me
Typical me, typical me
Typical me, typical me, typical me
I started something
And now I'm not too sure.
