randy newman - a few words in defense of our country
Iâ??d like to say a few words
In defense of our country
Whose people arenâ??t bad nor are they mean
Now the leaders we have
While theyâ??re the worst that weâ??ve had
Are hardly the worst this poor world has seen
Letâ??s turn historyâ??s pages, shall we?
Take the Caesars for example
Why within the first few of them
They were sleeping with their sister
Stashing little boys in swimming pools
And burning down the City
And one of â??em, one of 'em
Appointed his own horse Consul of the Empire
Thatâ??s like vice president or something
Thatâ??s not a very good example, is it?
But wait, hereâ??s one, the Spanish Inquisition
They put people in a terrible position
I donâ??t even like to think about it
Well, sometimes I like to think about it
Just a few words in defense of our country
Whose time at the top
Could be coming to an end
Now we donâ??t want their love
And respect at this point is pretty much out of the question
But in times like these
We sure could use a friend
Hitler. Stalin.
Men who need no introduction
King Leopold of Belgium. Thatâ??s right.
Everyone thinks heâ??s so great
Well he owned The Congo
He tore it up too
He took the diamonds, he took the gold
He took the silver
Know what he left them with?
Malaria
A President once said,
"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself"
Now it seems like weâ??re supposed to be afraid
Itâ??s patriotic in fact and color coded
And what are we supposed to be afraid of?
Why, of being afraid
Thatâ??s what terror means, doesnâ??t it?
Thatâ??s what it used to mean
[To the first eight bars of "Columbia The Gem Of The Ocean"]
You know it pisses me off a little
That this Supreme Court is gonna outlive me
A couple of young Italian fellas and a brother on the Court now too
But I defy you, anywhere in the world
To find me two Italians as tightass as the two Italians we got
And as for the brother
Well, Plutoâ??s not a planet anymore either
The end of an empire is messy at best
And this empire is ending
Like all the rest
Like the Spanish Armada adrift on the sea
Weâ??re adrift in the land of the brave
And the home of the free
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.

randy newman - a piece of the pie
Like us all you want, the very best advice
A car, a house a neighborhood, thatÂ?s nice
Flowers and trees and lots of little kids around
Where public schools are breeding grounds for vice.
You say youÂ?re working harder than you ever have
You say youÂ?ve got two jobs and soÂ?s your wife
Living in the richest country in the world
WouldnÂ?t you think youÂ?d have a better life?
If you lived in Norway youÂ?d be fine right now
Get sick there, you make the doctor wait
If you lived in Belgium you could mediate
[German screaming]
Hey, knock it off!
And the French fries are great
Jesus Christ it stinks here high and low
The rich are getting richer, I should know
While weÂ?re going up youÂ?re going down
No one gives a shit but Jackson Browne
Jackson Browne
Jackson
ThereÂ?s a famous saying someone famous said
As General Motors goes, so go we all
Johnny CougerÂ?s singing itÂ?s their country man
HeÂ?ll be singing for Toyota by the fall
[ThatÂ?s not true. JohnÂ?s a patriot.
HeÂ?s not like you. HeÂ?s a-]
Jesus Christ, it stinks here low and high
Some get rich and others just get by
BonoÂ?s off in Africa, heÂ?s never around
Country turns its lonely him, Jackson Browne
Jackson Browne
Jackson Browne
A piece of the pie
ItÂ?s all weÂ?re asking for
A piece of the pie
A piece of the pie
ItÂ?s all weÂ?re asking for
A piece of the pie
randy newman - a fool in love
Look at the light coming over me
show me a man whos gentle and kind
and I'll show you a loser
now, show me a man who takes what he wants
ohhhhhhhhh how exciting
ohhhhhhhhh how exciting
so the poet sings
when you're a fool in love
and nothing goes the way you plan
and no one cares and no one understands
that you're a fool and you're in love
never another spring for you,
never a robin to sing for you,
you're out there on your own
when you're a fool in love
when you're a fool in love
seems like the skies are always grey
you turn around theres someone in your way
and its you, and you're in love
sometimes you think that your luck has changed
and a rainbow explodes 'cross the sky,
but when you're a fool in love
you'll be a fool 'til the day you die
randy newman - a wedding in cherokee county
There she is sitting there
Out behind the smoke-house in her rocking chair
She don't do nothin'
She don't say nothin'
She don't feel nothin'
She don't know nothin'
Maybe she's crazy, I don't know
But maybe that's why I love her so
Her papa was a midget
Her mama was a whore
Her grandad was a newsboy 'til he was eighty-four
Man don't you think I know she hates me
Man don't you think I know that she's no good
If she knew how she'd be unfaithful to me
I think she'd kill me if she could
Maybe she's crazy I don't know
But maybe that's why I love her so
I'm not afraid of the greywolf
Who stalks through our forest at dawn
As long as I have her beside me
I have the strength to carry on
Today we will be married
And all the freaks that she knows will be there
And all the people from the village will be there
To congratulate us
I will carry her across the threshold
I will make dim the light
I will attempt to spend my love within her
But though I try with all my might
She will laugh at my mighty sword
She will laugh at my mighty sword
Why must everybody laugh at my mighty sword?
Lord, hep me if you will
Maybe we're both crazy, I don't know
Maybe that's why I love her so
randy newman - albanian anthem
A light shines
On the goatherd
And the snow lingers
Yet on the ground
In the forest deep
Where
The grey wolf sleeps
Comes a wonderful
Wonderful sound
Albania, Albania
We pledge
Our faith in thee
Albania, Albania
randy newman - back on my feet again
Doctor, let me tell you something about myself
I'm a college man and I'm very wealthy
I've got no time to trifle with trash like you
Cause I must be 'bout my business
My brother's a machinist in a textile mill
And he makes more money than you ever will
He just got married to a Polish girl
With a space between her teeth
My sister's a dancer up in Baltimore
At a small cafe on Main
But she ran off with a Negro from the Eastern Shore
Dr., she didn't even know his name
CHORUS
Get me back on my feet again
Back on my feet again
Open the door and set me free
Get me back on my feet again
He took her down to Mobile in a railroad train
He said, "Driver, take me to the Hotel Paree."
He went into the washroom
Washed his face and hands
Dr., when he come out he was white as you and me
He said, "Girl, I'm not a Negro I'm a millionaire
As you can plainly see
So many women love my money
But you have proved that you love only me.
"I'm going to teach you to play polo and how to water ski
And you won't have to dance no more
And I no longer must pretend to be
A Negro from the Eastern Shore."
Doctor, doctor, what you say
How 'bout letting me out today?
Ain't no reason for me to stay
Everybody's so far away
CHORUS
randy newman - bad news from home
High on a cliff in Mexico
Staring down at the rocks and the sea below
I can hear the church bells ring
I can hear the choir
I remember the night she left
I drove to the station in the pouring rain
Sat all night behind my big iron desk
The oil on the water made a rainbow
At the end of this bone-white gravel road
They both lie sleeping on a feather bed
And her hair is black as the sky at night
But her eyes are gray like the moon
You can run but you can't hide
You can run but you can't hide
You said you love me but I know you lied
You said you love me but I know you lied
randy newman - baltimore
Beat-up little seagull
On a marble stair
Tryin' to find the ocean
Lookin' everywhere
Hard times in the city
In a hard town by the sea
Ain't nowhere to run to
There ain't nothin' here for free
Hooker on the corner
Waitin' for a train
Drunk lyin' on the sidewalk
Sleepin' in the rain
And they hide their faces
And they hide their eyes
'Cause the city's dyin'
And they don't know why
Oh, Baltimore
Man, it's hard just to live
Oh, Baltimore
Man, it's hard just to live, just to live
Get my sister Sandy
And my little brother Ray
Buy a big old wagon
Gonna haul us all away
Livin' in the country
Where the mountain's high
Never comin' back here
'Til the day I die
Oh, Baltimore
Man, it's hard just to live
Oh, Baltimore
Man, it's hard just to live, just to live
randy newman - best little girl
Devil: Once knew a girl
Her name was Barbara
Cutest little muffin you have ever seen
Livin' in St. Louis
Chase Hotel
Lord: I know the place
D: And she lived there
With her mommy and her daddy
And her little brother Skipper
Who was just thirteen
Backup Devilettes: Just thirteen
D: Went to Church every morning
Said their Prayers real loud every night
She was the best little girl
In the whole damn town
Lord: Watch it, Devil
Devil: Sorry, Lord
But you know I'm right
You know I'm right
One morning in the lobby
I whispered in her ear
"Honey it's too hot today to go to school
Whyn't you call up
that cute little lifeguard?
He's out by the hotel pool"
They drank all her daddy's whisky
And they took all her mama's pills
They were found the next day
Drowned in their own vomit
[Angels gasp]
Poor little fool
Poor little fool
randy newman - bet no one ever hurt this bad
Sit by my window and watch the rain
I hear it beating on my window pane
Well, it makes me so sad
Be no one ever hurt this bad
My baby left me and now I'm alone
Wait for a letter and I sit by the phone
Oh, the troubles I've had
Bet no one ever hurt this bad
Since you went away
I can't face the day
And night brings nothing but pain
Thought I could go on
I see that I was wrong
Baby, please come home -
I just can't stand to be alone
Somebody somewhere here my plea
And send my baby back to me
It'd make me so glad
Bet no one ever hurt this bad
randy newman - better off dead
Musically, this one has a sort of overblown, heavenly quality to it. But lyrically, it's another story of a guy getting himself into a bad relationship that he can't get out of. He says, "When you fall in love with someone who doesn't love you/ Someone who treats you so badly it ramifies your head/ Someone who doesn't want you but won't let you go/ Someone who thinks you're crazy and tells you so, over and over and over/ If this happens to you, you're better off dead." It's exaggerated, but there's a kernel of truth there for so many people. You don't know what bad is until you feel that. I know what I'm talking about because I was once a woman who loved too much.
randy newman - big hat no cattle
Since I was a child
I've tried to be what I'm not
I've lied and I've enjoyed it all my life
I lied to my dear mother
to my sisters and my brother
and now I'm lying to my children and my wife
Big Hat, no cattle
Big head, no brain
Big snake, no rattle
I forever remain
big hat, no cattle
I knew from the start
Big boat, no paddle
Big belly, no heart
Can't remember why I do it,
Oh, maybe I can.
An honest man these days is hard to find.
I only know we're living in an unforgiving land.
And a little lie can buy some real big piece of mind.
Oftimes I wondered what might I have become,
Had I but buckled down and really tried.
But when it came down to the wire
I called my family to my side
Stood up straight, threw my head back and I lied, lied,lied
Big hat, no cattle
Big shoes, well you know...
Big horse, no saddle
He goes wherever I go
Big hat, no cattle
Right from the start
Big guns, no battle
Big belly, no heart
When it came down to the wire
I called my little family to my side
Stood up straight, threw my head back and I lied, lied,lied
lied, lied, lied
Big hat, no cattle
Big head, no brain
Big snake, no rattle
I forever remain
Big hat, no cattle
I knew from the start
Big boat, no paddle
Big belly, no heart
Big boat, no paddle
Big belly, no heart
randy newman - birmingham
Got a wife, got a family
Earn my livin' with my hand
I'm a roller in a steel mill
In downtown Birmingham
My daddy was a barber
And a most unsightly man
He was born in Tuscaloosa
But he died right here in Birmingham
CHORUS
Birmingham, Birmingham
The greatest city in Alabam'
You can travel 'cross this entire land
But there's no place like Birmingham
Wife's named Mary
But she's called Marie
We live in a three room house
With a pepper tree
I work all day in the factory
That's alright with me
Got a big black dog
Whose name is Dan
Lives in my backyard in Birmingham
He is the meanest dog in Alabam'
Get 'em Dan
CHORUS
randy newman - blue shadows on the trail
Arizona moon keep shining
From the desert sky above
You know pretty soon
That big yellow moon
Will light the way back to the one you love.
Blue shadows on the trail
Little cowboy, close your eyes and dream
All of the doggies are in the corral
All of your work is done
Just close your eyes and dream little pal
Dream of someone
(Boom boom boom boom, etc.)
Blue shadows on the trail
Soft wind blowing through the trees above
All the other little cowboys
Back in the bunkhouse now, so
Close your eyes and dream
