paul simon - the obvious child
Well, I'm accustomed to a smooth ride
Or maybe I'm a dog who's lost its bite
I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more
I don't expect to sleep through the night
Some people say a lie's a lie's a lie
But I say why
Why deny the obvious child?
Why deny the obvious child?
And in remembering a road sign
I am remembering a girl when I was young
And we said These songs are true
These days are ours
These tears are free
And hey
The cross is in the ballpark
The cross is in the ballpark
We had a lot of fun
We had a lot of money
We had a little son and we thought we'd call him Sonny
Sonny gets married and moves away
Sonny has a baby and bills to pay
Sonny gets sunnier
Day by day by day by day
Doh, doh, doh, doh
Doh, doh, doh, doh
Well, I've been waking up at sunrise
I've been following the light across my room
I watch the night receive the room of my day
Some people say the sky is just the sky
But I say
Why deny the obvious child?
Why deny the obvious child?
Sonny sits by his window and thinks to himself
How it's strange that some rooms are like cages
Sonny's yearbook from high school
Is down from the shelf
And he id-ly thumbs through the pages
Some have died
Some have fled from themselves
Or struggled from here to get there
Sonny wanders beyond his interior walls
Runs his hand through his thinning brown hair
Well, I'm accustomed to a smooth ride
Or maybe I'm a dog who's lost its bite
I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more
I don't expect to sleep through the night
Some people say a lie's is just a lie
But I say
the cross is in the ballpark
Why deny the obvious child?
paul simon - the sound of silence
Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while i was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams i walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
'neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.
And in the naked light i saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence.
'fools' said i, 'you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that i might teach you,
Take my arms that i might reach to you.'
But my words like silent as raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
And the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, 'the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.'
Whispered in the sound of silence
paul simon - all around the world or the myth of fingerprints
Over the mountain
Down in the valley
Lives a former talk-show host
Everybody knows his name
He says there?s no doubt about it
It was the myth of fingerprints
I?ve seen them all and man
They?re all the same
Well, the sun gets weary
And the sun goes down
Ever since the watermelon
And the lights come up
On the black pit town
Somebody says what?s a better thing to do
Well, it?s not just me
And it?s not just you
This is all around the world
Out in the indian ocean somewhere
There?s a former army post
Abandoned now just like the war
And there?s no doubt about it
It was the myth of fingerprints
That?s what that old army post was for
Well, the sun gets bloody
And the sun goes down
Ever since the watermelon
And the lights come up
On the black pit town
Somebody says what?s a better thing to do
Well, it?s not just me
And it?s not just you
This is all around the world
Over the mountain
Down in the valley
Lives the former talk-show host
Far and wide his name was known
He said there?s no doubt about it
It was the myth of fingerprints
That?s why we must learn to live alone
paul simon - a heart in new york
New York - to that tall skyline I come
Flyin' in from London to your door.
New York - lookin' down on Central Park
Where they say you should not wander after dark.
New York - like a scene from all those movies.
But you're real enough to me
For there's a heart,
A heart that lives in New York.
A heart in New York, arose on the street.
I write my song to that city heartbeat.
A heart in New York - the love in her eyes.
An open door and a friend for the night.
New York - you got money on your mind
And my words won't make a dime's worth of difference.
So here's to you New York
paul simon - all because of you
I went to my doctor
I said
Give me some relief
He said
Tell me what's the matter with you, boy...
I said
It's all because of you
It's all because of you
It's all because you wouldn't say, I do
So I went to my drugstore
I said
Do the drugs on me...
He said
Oh, what can you do
When it's all because of you
You know, it's all because you wouldn't say, I do
Ain't nobody loves me
Nobody needs my love
This is my only life
(...)
Holy Moses, what's this goin' on
I said
I can't believe it's true
Brain's all messed up, can't be straight
And it's all because of you
That's right, it's all because of you
Yes, it's all because of you
It's all because you would not say we're through
So I went to the gypsy woman
I said
Give me some relief
She said
I ain't got no potions and no special kind of weed
She said
I'll tell you what to do
She said, I'll tell you what to do,
She said, go away, take a week or two
I ain't got nobody
Ever since you been gone
Love is an...
Going away, another lover
Is an easy game
I won the same way too
Said it's all because of you
All because of you
All because of you
All
All because of you
All because of you
All because of you
I said
It's all because of you
All because of you
That's right, it's all because of you
paul simon - allergies
Maladies
Melodies
Allergies to dust and grain
Maladies
Remedies
Still these allergies remain
My hand can?t touch a guitar string
My fingers just burn and ache
My head intercedes with my bodily needs
And my body won?t give it a break
My heart can stand a disaster
My heart can take a disgrace
But my heart is allergic
To the women I love
And it?s changing the shape of my face
Allergies
Allergies
Something?s living on my skin
Doctor please
Doctor please
Open up it?s me again
I go to a famous physician
I sleep in the local hotel
From what I can see of the people like me
We get better
But we never get well
So I ask myself this question
It?s a question I often repeat
Where do allergies go
When it?s after a show
And they want to get something to eat?
Allergies
Allergies
Something?s living on my skin
Doctor please
Doctor please
Open up it?s me again
Maladies
Melodies
Allergies to dust and grain

Still these allergies remain
paul simon - america
Let us be lovers we?ll marry our fortunes together
I?ve got some real estate here in my bag
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and mrs. wagner pies
And we walked off to look for america
Kathy, I said as we boarded a greyhound in pittsburgh
Michigan seems like a dream to me now
It took me four days to hitchhike from saginaw
I?ve gone to look for america
Laughing on the bus
Playing games with the faces
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera
Toss me a cigarette, I think there?s one in my raincoat
We smoked the last one an hour ago
So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
And the moon rose over an open field
Kathy, I?m lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping
I?m empty and aching and I don?t know why
Counting the cars on the new jersey turnpike
They?ve all gone to look for america
All gone to look for america
All gone to look for america
paul simon - mrs robinson
And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo, wo, wo)
God bless you please, Mrs. Robinson
Heaven holds a place for those who pray
(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)
We'd like to know a little bit about you for our files
We'd like to help you learn to help yourself
Look around you, all you see are sympathetic eyes
Stroll around the grounds until you feel at home
And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo, wo, wo)
God bless you please, Mrs. Robinson
Heaven holds a place for those who pray
(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)
Hide it in a hiding place where no one ever goes
Put it in your pantry with your cupcakes
It's a little secret, just the Robinsons' affair
Most of all, you've got to hide it from the kids
Coo, coo, ca-choo, Mrs Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo, wo, wo)
God bless you please, Mrs. Robinson
Heaven holds a place for those who pray
(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)
Sitting on a sofa on a Sunday afternoon
Going to the candidates debate
Laugh about it, shout about it
When you've got to choose
Ev'ry way you look at it, you lose
Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio
A nation turns its lonely eyes to you (Woo, woo, woo)
What's that you say, Mrs. Robinson
Joltin' Joe has left and gone away
(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)
paul simon - the boxer
I am just a poor boy, though my story?s seldom told.
I have squandered my resistance,
For a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises.
All lies and jest.
Still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.
When I left my home and my family I was no more than a boy,
In the company of strangers,
In the quiet of a railway station, runnin? scared.
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters,
Where the ragged people go.
Lookin? for the places, only they would know.
Lie-la-lie ...
Asking only workman?s wages I come lookin? for a job,
But I get no offers,
Just a come-on from the whores on seventh avenue.
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome,
I took some comfort there.
Oooh la, la, la ...
And the years are rollin? by me.
They are rockin? evenly.
I am older than I once was, and younger than I?ll be.
That?s not unusual.
It isn?t strange,
After changes upon changes, we are more or less the same.
After changes, we are more or less the same.
Lie-la-lie ...
Then I?m laying out my winter clothes and wishing I was gone,
Going home, where the new york city winters aren?t bleedin? me.
Leadin? me, to goin? home.
In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade,
And he carries the reminders of every glove that laid him down,
Or cut him ?til he cried out in his anger and his shame,
I am leaving, I am leaving.
But the fighter still remains.
Lie-la-lie ...
paul simon - i don t believe
Acts of kindness, like breadcrumbs in a fairytale forest
Lead us past dangers as light melts the darkness
But I don't believe, and I'm not consoled
I lean closer to the fire, but I'm cold
The earth was born in a storm
The waters receded, the mountains were formed
"The universe loves a drama," you know
And ladies and gentlemen this is the show
I got a call from my broker
The broker informed me I'm broke
I was dealing my last hand of poker
My cards were useless as smoke
Oh, guardian angel
Don't taunt me like this, on a clear summer evening as soft as a kiss
My children are laughing, not a whisper of care
My love is brushing her long chestnut hair
I don't believe a heart can be filled to the brim
Then vanish like mist as though life were a whim
Maybe the heart is part of the mist
And that's all that there is or could ever exist
Maybe and maybe and maybe some more
Maybe's the exit that I'm looking for
I got a call from my broker
The broker said he was mistaken
Maybe some virus or brokerage joke
And he hopes that my faith isn't shaken
Acts of kindness
Like rain in a draught
Release the spirit with a whoop and a shout
I don't believe we were born to be sheep in a flock
To pantomime prayers with the hands of a clock
paul simon - long long day
It?s been a long, long day
I got some run-down shoes
Ain?t got no place to stay
But any old place will be okay
It?s been a long, long day
I sure been on this road
Done nearly fourteen years
Can?t say my name?s well known
You don?t see my face in rolling stone
But I sure been on this road
Slow motion
Half a dollar bill
Jukebox in the corner
Shooting to kill
And it?s been a...
It?s been a long, long day
I sure could use a friend
Don?t know what else to say
I hate to abuse an old cliche
But it?s been a long, long day
Its been a long, long day
paul simon - a church is burning
A church is burning
The flames rise higher
Like hands that are praying, aglow in the sky
Like hands that are praying, the fire is saying
?You can burn down my churches, but I shall be free?
Three hooded men thru the back road did creep
Torches in their hands, while the village lies asleep
Down to the church, where just hours before
Voices were singing and hands were beating
And saying ?I won?t be a slave any more?
And a church is burning
The flames rise higher
Like hands that are praying, aglow in the sky
Like hands that are praying the fire is saying
?You can burn down my churches, but I shall be free?
Three hooded men, their hands lit the spark
Then they faded in the night, and they vanished in the dark
And in the cold light of morning, there?s nothing that remains
But the ashes of a Bible and can of kerosene
And a church is burning
The flames rise higher
Like hands that are praying, aglow in the sky
Like hands that are praying, the fire is saying
?You can burn down my churches, but I shall be free?
A church is more than just timber and stone
And freedom is a dark road when you?re walking it alone
But the future is now, and it?s time to take a stand
So the lost bells of freedom can ring out in my land
And a church is burning
The flames rise higher
Like hands that are praying, aglow in the sky
Like hands that are praying the fire is saying
?You can burn down our churches, but I shall be free?
paul simon - crazy love vol ii
Fat Charlie the Archangel
Sloped into the room
He said I have no opinion about this
And I have no opinion about that
Sad as a lonely little wrinkled balloon
He said well I don't claim to be happy about this, boys
And I don't seem to be happy about that
I don't want no part of this crazy love
I don't want no part of your love
I don't want no part of this crazy love
I don't want no part of your love
I don't want no part of this crazy love
I don't want no part of your love
I don't want no part of this crazy love
I don't want no part of this crazy love
She says she knows about jokes
This time the joke is on me
Well, I have no opinion about that
And I have no opinion about me
Somebody could walk into this room
And say your life is on fire
It's all over the evening news
All about the fire in your life
On the evening news
I don't want no part of this crazy love
I don't want no part of your love
I don't want no part of this crazy love
I don't want no part of your love
Fat Charlie the Archangel
Files for divorce
He says well this will eat up a year of my life
And then there's all that weight to be lost
She says the joke is on me
I say the joke is on her
I said I have no opinion about that
Well, we'll just have to wait and confer
I don't want no part of this crazy love
I don't want no part of your love
I don't want no part of this crazy love
I don't want no part of your love
I don't want no part of this crazy love
I don't want no part of your love
I don't want no part of this crazy love
paul simon - love
Cool me
Cool my fever high
Hold me when I cry
I need it so much
Makes you want to get down crawl like a beggar
For its touch
And all the while it?s free as air
Like plants the medicine is everywhere
Love
Love
Love
We crave it so badly
Makes you want to laugh out loud when you receive it
And gobble it like a candy
We think it?s easy
Sometimes it?s easy
But it?s not easy
You?re going to break down and cry
We?re not important
We should be grateful
And if you?re wondering why
Love
Love
Love
The price that we pay
When evil walks the planet
And love is crushed like clay
The master races, the chosen people
The burning temple, the weeping cathedrals
paul simon - loves me like a rock
Loves Me Like A Rock- Paul Simon
When I was a little boy
(When I was just a boy)
And the devil would call my name

(Who?)
Who do you think you?re fooling??
I?m a concentrated boy
(I?m a concentrated boy)
I?m a singer in a Sunday choir
My mama loves me, she loves me
She gets down on her knees and hugs me
She loves me like a rock
She rocks me like the rock of ages
And she loves me
She loves me, loves me, loves me, loves me
When I was grown to be a man
(Grown to be a man)
And the devil would call my name
(Grown to be a man)
I?d say ?now who do?
(Who?)
Who do you think you?re fooling??

And she loves me
She loves me, loves me, loves me, loves me
If I was President
(Was the President)
And the Congress called my name
(Was the President)
I?d say ?who do?
(Who?)
Who do you think you?re fooling??
(Who do you think you?re fooling?)
I?ve got the Presidential Seal
I?m up on the Presidential Podium
My mama loves me, she loves me
She gets down on her knees and hugs me
And she loves me like a rock
She rocks me like the rock of ages
And she loves me
She loves me, love me like a rock
