(Woo)
Here come the Men in Black
(It's the MIBs, uh, here come the MIBs)
Here come the Men in Black (Men in Black)
They won't let you remember
Nah, nah, nah

The good guys dress in black, remember that
Just in case we ever face to face and make contact
The title held by me, MIB
Means what you think you saw, you did not see
So don't blink, B, what was there is now gone
Black suit with the black Ray-Bans on
Walk in shadow, move in silence
Guard against extra-terrestrial violence
But yo, we ain't on no government list
We straight don't exist, no names and no fingerprints
Saw somethin' strange? Watch your back
'Cause you never quite know where the MIBs is at
Uh, and

Here come the Men in Black (Men in Black)
Galaxy defenders (oh, oh, oh)
Here come the Men in Black (Men in Black)
They won't let you remember (won't let you remember)

Uh-uh, uh-uh, now
From the deepest of the darkest of night
On the horizon, bright light enters sight, tight
Cameras zoom on the impendin' doom
But then like, "Boom," black suits fill the room up
With the quickness, talk with the witnesses
Hypnotizer, neuralyzer
Vivid memories turn to fantasies
Ain't no MIBs, can I please?
Do what we say, that's the way we kick it
Yah mean? Or see the Noisy Cricket get wicked on you
We're your first, last and only line of defense
Against the worst scum of the universe
So don't fear us, cheer us
If you ever get near us, don't jeer us, we're the fearless
MIBs, freezin' up all the flack
(What's that stand for?) Men in Black

Uh, and
(The Men in Black)
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
(The Men in Black)
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh

Let me see you just bounce it with me, just bounce with me (bounce with me)
Just bounce it with me, c'mon
Let me see you just slide with me, just slide with me (slide, slide, slide, slide)
Just slide with me, c'mon
Let me see you take a walk with me, just walk it with me (walk with me)
Take a walk with me, c'mon
And make your neck work
Now freeze (uh-huh, oh)

Here come the Men in Black (Men in Black)
Galaxy defenders (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Here come the Men in Black (Men in Black)
They won't let you remember (no, no)

Alright check it, let me tell you this in closin'
I know we might seem imposin'
But trust me, if we ever show in your section
Believe me, it's for your own protection
'Cause we see things that you need not see
And we be places that you need not be
So go witcha life, forget that Roswell crap
Show love to the black suit, 'cause that's the Men in
That's the Men in

Here come the Men in Black (here they come)
Galaxy defenders (galaxy defenders)
Here come the Men in Black (oh, here they come)
They won't let you remember (won't let you remember)
Here come the Men in Black (oh, here they come)
Galaxy defenders (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Here come the Men in Black
They won't let you remember

Robert Earl Keen, Jr.
Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.

Spirit Within
Bertoldi Brothers
Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
