I wanna hold em' like they do in Texas Plays
Fold em' let em' hit me raise it baby stay with me
Lovegame and intuition play the cards with Spades to start
And after you been hooked I'll play the one that's on your heart

Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll get you hot, show you what I've got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh,
I'll get you hot, show you what I've got

Can't read my,
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(she's got me like nobody)
Can't read my
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(she's got me like nobody)


P-p-p-poker face, my poker face

P-p-p-poker face, my poker face


A little gambling is fun when you're with me
I wanna roll with you a hard pair we will be
Russian Roulette is not the same without a gun
And baby when it's love if its not rough it isn't fun, fun

Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll get you hot, show you what we've got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh,
I'll get you hot, show you what we've got

Can't read my,
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(she's got you like nobody)
Can't read my
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(she's got you like nobody)

P-p-p-poker face, my poker face

P-p-p-poker face, my poker face


I won't tell you that I love you
and i wont kiss and i won't hug you
Take your bank before I pay you out
I promise this, I am marvelous

Can't read my,
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face

Can't read my
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(she's got me like nobody)

Can't read my,
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(she's got you like nobody)
Can't read my
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(p-p-p-poker face, my poker face)


Can't read my,
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(p-p-p-poker face, my poker face)


P-p-p-poker face, my poker face

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
