Black Hole Sun
Originally by: Soundgarden
Album: Superunknown
Year: 1994
Genre: Grunge/Rock ballad
In my eyes, indisposed
In disguises no one knows
Hides the face, lies the snake
The sun in my disgrace
Boiling heat, summer stench
'Neath the black the sky looks dead
Call my name through the cream
And I'll hear you scream again
Chorus 1:
Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come
Stuttering, cold and damp
Steal the warm wind, tired friend
Times are gone for honest men
And sometimes far too long for snakes
In my shoes, a walking sleep
In my youth I pray to keep
Heaven send hell away
No one sings like you anymore
(Chorus 1)
Chorus 2:
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
[guitar solo]
Hang my head, drown my fear
Till you all just disappear
(Chorus 1)
(Chorus 2, repeat till end)

Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'
Originally by: Journey
Album: Evolution
Year: 1979
Genre: Classic rock
You make me weep and wanna die
Just when you said we'd try
Lovin', touchin', squeezin' each other
When I'm alone all by myself
You're out with someone else
Lovin', touchin', squeezin' each other
You're tearin' me apart
Every, every day
You're tearin' me apart
Oh, what can I say?
You're tearin' me apart
It won't be long, yes, till you're alone
When your lover, oh, he hasn't come home
Cause hes lovin', ooh, he's touchin', he's squeezin' another
He's tearin' you apart
Every, every day
He's tearin' you apart
Oh girl, what can you say?
'Cause he's lovin', touchin' another
Now it's your turn, girl to cry

The Trooper
Originally by: Iron Maiden
Album: Piece of Mind
Year: 1983
Genre: Heavy metal
You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand there's no turning back
The bugle sounds as the charge begins
But on this battlefield no one wins
The smell of acrid smoke and horse's breath
As you plunge into a certain death
The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
The mighty roar of the Russian guns
And as we race towards the human wall
The screams of pain as my comrades fall
We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
And as the Russians fire another round
We get so near yet so far away
We won't live to fight another day
(guitar solo)
We get so close near enough to fight
When a Russian gets me in his sights
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow
A burst of rounds takes my horse below
And as I lay there gazing at the sky
My body's numb and my throat is dry
And as I lay forgotten and alone
Without a tear I draw my parting groan

Even Flow
Originally by: Pearl Jam
Album: Ten
Year: 1991
Genre: Grunge
Freezin', rests his head on a pillow made of concrete, again
Oh, feelin' maybe he'll see a little better, set a days, ooh yeah
Oh, hand out, faces that he sees time again ain't that familiar, oh yeah
Oh, dark grin, he can't help, when he's happy looks insane, oh yeah
Even flow, thoughts arrive like butterflies
Oh, he don't know, so he chases them away
Someday yet, he'll begin his life again
Life again, life again...
Kneelin', looking through the paper though he doesn't know to read, ooh yeah
Oh, prayin', now to something that has never showed him anything
Oh, feelin', understands the weather of the winters on its way
Oh, ceilings, few and far between all the legal halls of shame, yeah
Even flow, thoughts arrive like butterflies
Oh, he don't know, so he chases them away
Someday yet, he'll begin his life again
Whispering hands, gently lead him away
Him away, him away...
Yeah!
Woo...ah yeah...fuck it up...
(guitar solo)
Even flow, thoughts arrive like butterflies
Oh, he don't know, so he chases them away
Someday yet, he'll begin his life again, yeah
Oh, whispering hands, gently lead him away
Him away, him away...
Yeah!
Woo...uh huh...yeah, yeah, mommy, mommy...
