Since my last post was about Fiona Apple, I thought I'd just share my favorite songs with you guys and who knows, maybe get you hooked on her music as well. So I wrote a few lines of lyrics that I really love from each song.
"Criminal"
"...Let me know the way, before there's hell to pay/Give me room to lay the law and let me go/I gotta make a play/To make my lover stay/So what would an angel say, the devil wants to know!..."
"Sleep to Dream"
"...I got my feet on the ground and I don't go to sleep to dream/You got your head in the clouds and you're not at all what you seem/This mind, this body, and this voice can not be stifle by your deviant ways/So go forget what I told ya, don't come around/I got my own hell to raise..."
"Paper Bag"
"I was staring at the sky, just looking for a the star/To pray on a wish or something like that/I was having a sweet fix, 'bout a daydream of a boy/Whose reality I knew, was a hopeless to be had..."
"Shadowboxer"
"...Ohhhh it's so evil my love/The way you've no reverance to my concern/So I'll be sure to stay weary of you love/To save the pain of once my flame and twice my burn/So I'm a shadowboxer babe, I wanna be ready for what you do/And I've been swinging around because I don't know when you'll make your move..."
"Oh Sailor"
"...And after waiting, fighting patiently on my knees/All the other stuff tired itself out first, not me/And in it's wake appears a touch and call of a different breed/One of the steps getting wise and got me there and then got me..."
"Every Single Night"
"...If what I am, is what I am/Then I does what I does/Then brother get back 'cause my breast is gonna bust/Open the rib is the shell/And the heart is the yolk/And I just made a meal for us both to choke on..."
"Werewolf"
"...The lava of our volcano/Shot up hot from under the sea/One thing leads to another/And you made an island of me..."
"Jonathan"
"Jonathan, call again, take me to Coney Island, take me on the train/Kiss me while I calculate, calibrate, and for heaven sakes don't make me explain/Just tolerate my little fists tugging on your forrest chest/I don't wanna talk about/I don't wanna talk about anything..."
"Hot Knife"
"If I'm butter, if I'm butter/If I'm butter, then he's a hot knife/He makes my heart a cinemascope/He's showing, dancing, bird of paradise..."
"Criminal"
"...Let me know the way, before there's hell to pay/Give me room to lay the law and let me go/I gotta make a play/To make my lover stay/So what would an angel say, the devil wants to know!..."
"Sleep to Dream"
"...I got my feet on the ground and I don't go to sleep to dream/You got your head in the clouds and you're not at all what you seem/This mind, this body, and this voice can not be stifle by your deviant ways/So go forget what I told ya, don't come around/I got my own hell to raise..."
"Paper Bag"
"I was staring at the sky, just looking for a the star/To pray on a wish or something like that/I was having a sweet fix, 'bout a daydream of a boy/Whose reality I knew, was a hopeless to be had..."
