paula cole - 14
Your eyes, they conjure up those cliffs of Moher
Far away I'm not listening anymore
Dreaming of life on another shore
Not here, not now with me the bore
So I stopped talking and fade to bleak
Feeling insignificant after feeling weak
Even though it's not who I know myself to be
The queen, the confidence doesn't speak
(Chorus)
But I was 14 with my passion and 15 with my best
16 with ego and zero with the rest, oh yeah
My heart is a POW tangled in my chest
I don't know how to communicate in a cardiac arrest
Your eyes they, drown me in your sadness
Your words, they bring hurricanes
I'm braving Shakespearian tempest
[14 lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]
The mighty tiger doesn't blink
(Chorus)
I think you were the one
Silent suffering inside
The one got away
I was too dangerous to hide
(Chorus)
So I stopped talking, baby
Cause you always want me to shut up
Take this ever stage me
While I become you trusted silent prop
So take good care
This mighty woman's ready to explode
Fire here on the surface of my volcano
paula cole - amen
I'm siphoning gass from the high school bus
Into the tank of my beat-up bug
So I can drive away from the shouting and misery
I drive into the night, to the hill, to the water tower
To lie on my back and drink in the meteor shower
Knowing that many men have lain as I do now
Ptolemy, Copernicus, Carl Jung Pondering his existence,
pondering, Is God with me now?
And I look to the sky And I ask these questions
Yes, I feel something I don't understand
Can somebody say Amen?
My life is but a short and precious seed
Like three seasons of life in a leaf on a tree
And when I cascade to the ground I will not be done
I will mingle with the earth and give life
To the roots again
Can somebody say Amen?
And I look to the sky And I ask these questions
Yes, I feel something I don't understand
Can somebody say Amen?
Amen for the drivers in their garbage trucks
Amen for our mothers, for the lust to fuck
Amen for the child with innocent eyes
Amen for Kevorkian and the right to die
Amen for NASA, The NSA It's all a front anyway
Amen for Marilyn Manson, Saddam Hussein
Amen for America and the Milky Way.
Amen for Elvis, for Betty Page
Amen for Gloria Steinham and Ronald Reagan
Amen for O.J., Clinton too
Amen for the Republican witch hunt coup
Amen for Gandhi, for Malcolm X
Amen for the uprising of the weaker sex
Amen for Babylon, the third world's call
Amen for the unity of us all
Amen, Amen, Amen
And I am not unique.
We are all leave on this great big tree
This tree that is life, that is God, that is you, that is me
And I lie under my tree like the Buddhas before and after me
And I ask the stars, "What for?"
Yes, I feel something I can't explain
A light that flickers off and on again
And I look to the sky And I ask these questions
Yes, I feel something I don't understand
Oh, can somebody say Amen?
paula cole - autumn leaves
The autumn leaves drift by my window
The autumn leaves all red and gold
I see your lips
The summer kisses
The sunburned hand I used to hold
But since you went away
the days grow long
and soon now hear a winter song
But now I miss you most of all
My darling
And autumn leaves are starting to fall
The autumn leaves drift by my window
The autumn leaves all red and gold
I'll see your lips
The summer kisses
The sunburned hands I used to hold
But since you went away
the days grow long and soon now hear
a winter song
I miss you most of all
My darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
When autumn...
paula cole - be somebody
I want to be somebody
I want to make a difference
Little boy caught in a drive-by
Witnessed the killer who made his daddy die,
And 'cause he identified and signed the dotted line,
He could feel it in his stomach, he signed away his life
Little boy who once was the leader of his class
The little source of joy, always neatly dressed
Now would hang his head and be left crying at his desk,
Was found with his mother, lying in her lap
With two bullets in his chest
And,oh my god,what is this madness?
I will not let it kill by gladness
And,oh my god, what is this madness?
My joy inside will send this message
I want to be somebody
I want to make a difference,
For we all are children of the Mother
I want to be somebody
I want to make a difference,
For we all are children of the Father
Outspoken man, leading sisters and brothers,
Picked himself up from hustling,drugs and gutters
Doing time on the inside, he found a higher power
Now, back with a mission to help us help each other
Respected from bourgeoisie to homeless in the street
From universities, Africa, the Middle East
And through the threats of death he spoke truth and set men free
But the power of the truth made enemies of the weak
He was killed by his own people
And, oh my god, what is this madness?
I will not let it kill my gladness
And, oh my god, what is this madness?
My joy inside will send this message
I want to be somebody
I want to make a difference,
For we all are children of the Mother
I want to be somebody
I want to make a difference
for we all are children
Ignite This Fire inside, this light that is the Truth
Shake off the system's chains, no longer be their fool
In the face of brutality, show the other cheek
Trigger-happy policing will never kill our dignity
And,oh my god, what is this madness?
I will not let it kill my gladness
And, oh my god, what is this madness?
My joy inside will send this message
Lift up your heart and See
Open your heart and See
Lift up your voice and Sing...
I want to be somebody
I want to make a difference,
For we all are children of the Mother
I want to be somebody
I want to make a difference,
paula cole - bethlehem
Pulling on the apron strings looking up
Standing on the chair to be grown up
I feel so little, I need my pillow
I hate the time, I hate the clock
I want to be a dog or I want to be a rock
Sunday's pancakes Miss Mary Mack
Color Polariods show my heart attack
In my second-hand pants and dusty shoes
The day that the playground laughed at my shoes
It's my birthday next week and what I want please
Is to turn on the heat so the fish won't freeze
The fish in the tank froze and died last week
Oh I want to be a dog or I want to be a leaf
Quarry miners, fishermen
In my town of Bethlehem
Picket fences, church at ten
No star above my Bethlehem
Now I'm only 16 and I think I have an ulcer
I'm hiding my sex behind a dirty sweatshirt
I've lost five pounds these past few days
Trying to be class president and get straight A's, well,
Who gives a shit about that anyway?
I want to be a dog or a lump of clay
Chorus
Still I'm tired of standing still
Tired of living - still
Everyday I dream of leaving
Everybody's talking about Becky's bust
The boys on the basketball team just fuck
The same ten girls, who don't know who they are
They're looking for some comfort in the back of a car
The six-packs of beer, the locker room jeers
I don't want to be me, I don't want to be here
Chorus
Red brick schoolhouse, dead end dirt roads, daffodils
No star above my Bethlehem
I want to be a dog or I want to be a rock
I don't want to be me, I don't want to be here
paula cole - bitch
I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
tried to tell you but you look at me like maybe I'm an angel underneath
innocent and sweet
Yesterday I cried
You must have been relieved to see the softer side
I can understand how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
all rolled into one
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way
So take me as I am
This may mean you'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that when I start to make you nervous
and I'm going to extremes
tomorrow I will change
and today won't mean a thing
Just when you think you've got me figured out
the season's already changing
I think it's cool you do what you do
and don't try to save me
I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
whou hurt, when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numbed, I'm revived
can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way
paula cole - black boots
Why do you think she wears those black boots...
Why do you think she dyes her hair black...
She's awfully insecure
She's trying to be cool
She's hoping to be more in those,
black boots.
Why do I think I wear those black boots...
Why do I wear three pairs of black boots...
I feel a little stronger
I feel a little taller
I identify with the color
I like myself in these
paula cole - carmen
Carmen, i don't know i don't know i don't know if i can go back
carmen i'll never be never be never be the same again
carmen (6 times)
the way you set the table
the way you lean to tell me something soft
the way i can see into you
the way you tell me i talk too much about myself
it's true i talk too much about myself
but right now all i wanna talk about is you now
carmen, i don't know i don't know i don't know if i can go back
carmen i'll never be never be never be the same again
carmen (6 times)
i love the way you think
is it biological or all the acid
you've eaten
just take me into your body
i wanna be drunk i wanna be high
i wanna be drunk i wanna be high on you
carmen, i don't know i don't know i don't know if i can go back
carmen i'll never be never be never be the same again
carmen (6 times)
i don't know i don't know i don't know
i don't know i don't know i don't know
if i can go go go go go go go go back home
i don't know i don't know i don't know
i don't know i don't know i don't know
if i can be seen again
paula cole - chiaroscuro
Goya and EL Greco,Gaugin and Van Gogh
Painted light in the darkness,chiaroscuro
Imagine we were a painting
A woman and a man
Two lovers on a canvas
One is white one is black
Darkness and Light will be married tonight in chiaroscuro
Your body on mine -two colors combined in chiaroscuro
Vermeer and Velazquez,Rembrandt and Rousseau
Painted perfect union,chiaroscuro
The Man and the Woman
The Knife and the Spoon
The Xylem and the Phloem
The Sun and the Moon
Chorus
How we lived a secret life from racist eyes
You said I couldn't understand you anyway I tried
But in this moment together,in our secret unity
Our skins become the still life,our souls epiphany
paula cole - comin down
Lord make me a lightning bolt to burn off this ring
(comin' down, comin' down),
Lord make me a Skilsaw to cut through these chains
(comin' down, comin' down),
Lord give me the clarity to see through this smoke,
And salvage the woman comin' down.
Lord make me an arrow to pierce through the lies
(comin' down, comin' down),
Lord make me a lens to better see my life
(comin' down, comin' down),
Lord make me an instrument to sing away the pain,
This rushing river, comin' down.
I'm free, here in the mountains of peace may I be.
I see the greatness above and the smallness of me.
[Comin' Down lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]
Lord I'm mistaken in the choices that I made
(comin' down, comin' down)
I made me a prison that should've been a man
(comin' down, comin' down)
Lord help me discover the courage to Be,
To handle these changes comin' down.
I'm free here in the mountains of peace may I be,
I see the greatness above and the smallness of me.
So free, here in garden awake consciously,
I see the greatness within; the greatness in me.
Lord I'm your instrument, I'll shoulder the weight,
Of feeling emotions in a deeper shade.
I'll be the one who puts them to song,
And liberate the heartache comin' down.
paula cole - dear gertrude
Tell me how the story will unfold,
I know you see everything.
Tell me all about the torch and scroll,
I know you know everything.
So why do you come to me?
Why when I'm sleeping?
Why am I the only one who knows you're there?
Why, why?
My dear, my dear Gertrude,
My dear, lonely soul,
My dear, my dear Gertrude,
My dear, my dear, my dear.
Tell me all about your history,
Tell me all about your pains.
Try to contact all your lost loved ones,
Try to speak to them through me.
So why do you come to me?
Why when I'm sleeping?
Why am I the only one
who knows you're there?
Why, why?
Chorus
You're so lonely in my body,
I can sympathize your pain.
But the secret is too much
for me to hold,
paula cole - el greco
I'm black on blacker velvet,
Milk skin and veins,
Like some El Greco painting,
So full of pain.
So full of longing for light of day.
I thought I knew who I was in the world.
But here I am twice blind at being born,
Crawling to my buried voice, within.
And I've forgotten who I used to be.
And I've forgotten the woman in red,
Living her dream.
And I've forgotten the courage I used to be.
Happiness is overrated,
It never lasts.
Skating the surface of oceanic depths.
Oh may the fruit of my life be meaning.
So please forgive me all my seriousness,
My so-called spirituality,
I'm just a mess.
I'm tears and anxiety,
But I'm unafraid to See.
And I've forgotten who I used to be,
The leader in her glory shining, divining.
And I've forgotten, the courage I used to be,
The middle passage is so damned humbling, persona crumbling,
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, and I try.
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know,
And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, and I try.
Like some El Greco painting,
No sun or sky.
No lantern, no candle needed to light,
The holy radiance behind the eyes.
And I've forgotten who I used to be.
And I've forgotten the woman in red, living her dream.
And I've forgotten the courage I used to be.
I don't know...

paula cole - feelin love
You make me feel like a sticky pistil
Leaning into the stamen.
You make me feel like Mr. Sunshine inside.
You make me feel like splendor in the grass where we're rolling
Damn skippy baby
you make me feel like the Amazon's running between my thighs.
You make me feel love
You make me feel like a candy apple all red and horny
You make me feel like I want to be dumb blonde
In a centerfold, the girl next door.
And I would open the door and I'd be all wet
With my tits soaking through this tiny little t-shirt
That I'm wearing and you would open the door
And tie me up to the bed.
You make me feel love
Lover I don't know who I am.
Am I Barry White - am I Isis?
Lover I'm laced with your unconscious,
I will be your Desdemona
You make me feel, ohhh
You make me feel, ahhh
You make me feel, oh, oh, ah, ah, oh, oh...
paula cole - free
I keep walking down the same city streets
The same city lines, to the same lonely beat
People say hello but I don't know what to say
I don't know how I feel, I just can't act that way
I wanna hide from all these strangers
I wanna run home to you
All I need is your compassion
Then we can be free,yes
I wanna be free,yes
I wanna be free
I wanna be free
Oh, the way I'm shut out by your silence
It's the loudest thing I've ever known
You leave me, leave me hanging
'til I feel useless with my hope
Oh, it's lonely in the city
It can be lonely next to you
Just have the courage to open up yourself
Then we can be free,yes
I wanna be free
I wanna be free
paula cole - garden of eden
Here I am, a black-eyed bird, remaining silent.
I simply watch, your little life from high above.
Wanting to call you, wanting to sing,
Inside your ears and lips and eyes and soul,
I dig my grave, behind the gates of Babylon.
There's a Garden of Eden
In your distant heart,
Garden of Eden
In your earthly arms.
Here I stand, a serpent queen of the garden.
I'm beckoning, but you ignore my siren song.
Oh I long, to touch you, to step inside your sacred gate.
I'll dig my grave in the middle of golden bible snake.
There's a Garden of Eden
In your distant heart,
Garden of Eden
In your earthly arms.
The black-eyed bird is dying,
The queen is dead,
She'll never step foot in Eden.
There's a Garden of Eden
In your distant heart,
Garden of Eden
