Glee Songs: JUMP, Defying Gravity

Defying Gravity

Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes: and leap!

It's time to try
Defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
And you won't bring me down!

I'm through accepting limits
'Cuz someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But till I try, I'll never know!
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've lost
Well, if that's love
It comes at much too high a cost!

I'd sooner buy
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
And you won't bring me down

I'd sooner buy
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
And you won't bring me down
Bring me down
Oooooooooooh!

JUMP

I get up,
And nothin' gets me down
You got it tough,
I've seen the toughest around
And I know
Baby just how you feel
You've got to ro-o-oll with the punches and get to what's real

(Bridge)
Can't you see me standing here I got my back against the record machine
I ain't the worst that you've seen
Can't you see what I mean

(Chorus)
Ah, might as well Jump (Jump!)
Might as well Jump
Go ahead and Jump (Jump!)
Go ahead and Jump

A-oh, hey you, who said that,
Baby how you been?
You say you don't you don't kno-o-ow
You won't know until you begin

(repeat Bridge)

(Chorus 2)
Might as well Jump (Jump!)
Go ahead and Jump
Might as well Jump (Jump!)
Go ahead and Jump

Jump!

(guitar solo followed by keyboard solo)

(repeat Chorus 2)

(repeat "Jump!" to fade)

The Closer I Get To You (1983, Alabama)

Alabama The Closer You Get

The closer you get, the further I fall
I'll be over the edge now in no time at all.
I'm fallin' faster and faster and faster with no time to stall
The closer you get, the further I fall.

Could I be dreamin'
Is this really real
'Cause there's something magic
The way that I feel in your arms tonight.

The closer you get, (oh yeah) the further I fall
I'll be over the edge now in no time at all.
I'm fallin' faster and faster and faster with no time to stall
The closer you get, (em hmm) the further I fall.

Keep fallin', oh, yeah, yeah, keep fallin',
Mm, fallin', oh, yeah, yeah, I'm fallin'.

Yes, I'm fallin' (Yes, I'm fallin' Yes, I'm fallin')
Yes, I'm fallin' (Yes, I'm fallin' Yes, I'm fallin')
Yes, we're fallin' (Yes, we're fallin' Yes, we're fallin').

The closer you get, (oh yeah) the further I fall (um hmm)
I'll be over the edge now in no time at all
I'm fallin' faster and faster and faster with no time to stall
(Um hm) The closer you get, (em hmm) the further I fall.

The closer you get, the further I fall
I'll be over the edge now in no time at all.
I'm fallin' faster and faster and faster with no time to stall
The closer you get, the further I fall.

That's What I Love About Sundays~2PM: Charlsanne ~

That's What I Love About Sundays

Craig Morgan Lyrics

That's What I Love About Sunday
(Adam Dorsey, Mark Narmore)

Raymond's in his Sunday best
He's usually up to his chest
In oil and grease
There's the Martins walking in
With that mean little freckled-face kid
Who broke a window last week
Sweet Miss Betty likes to sing off key
In the pew behind me

That's what I love about Sunday
Sing along as the choir sways
Every verse of "Amazing Grace"
And then we shake the preacher's hand
Go home into your blue jeans
Have some chicken and some baked beans
Pick a backyard football team
Not do much of anything
That's what I love about Sunday

I stroll to the end of the drive
Pick up the Sunday Times
Grab a coffee cup
It looks like Sally and Rob
Finally tied the knot
Well it's about time
It's thirty-five cents off of ground round
Baby, cut that coupon out

That's what I love about Sunday
Cat napping on the porch swing
You curled up next to me
The smell of jasmine wakes us up
Take a walk down a back road
Tackle box and a cane pole
Carve our names in that white oak
I steal a kiss as the sun fades
That's what I love about Sunday

New believers getting baptized
Mama's hands raised up high
Having a Hallelujah good time
A smile on everybody's face
That's what I love about Sunday

Oh yeah
That's what I love about Sunday
Oh yeah

Honey I'm Home~Noon: Kerry ~

Honey I'm Home


The Car Won't Start--It's Falling Apart Falling Apart
I Was Late For Work And The Boss Got Smart
My Pantyline Shows--Got A Run In My Hose
My Hair Went Fiat--Man, I Hate That (Hate That)

Just When I Thought Things Couldn't Get Worse
I Realized I Forgot My Purse
With All This Stress--I Must Confess
This Could Be Worse Than PMS

BRIDGE:
This Job Ain't Worth The Pay
Can't Wait 'Til The End Of The Day
Honey, I'm On My Way
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

CHORUS:
Honey, I'm Home And I Had A Hard Day
Pour Me A Cold One And Oh, By The Way
Rub My Feet, Gimme Something To Eat
Fix Me Up My Favorite Treat
Honey, I'm Back, My Head's Killing Me
I Need To Relax And Watch TV
Get Off The Phone--Give The Dog A Bone
Hey! Hey! Honey, I'm Home!

I Broke A Nail Opening The Mail
I Cursed Out Loud 'Cause It Hurts Like Hell
This Job's A Pain--It's So Mundane
It Sure Don't Stimulate My Brain

(BRIDGE)
(CHORUS)

Oh, Rub My Neck Will You

(CHORUS)

I'm Home, That Feels Much Better

Jailhouse Rock~10AM: Val ~

Jailhouse Rock


The warden threw a party in the county jail.
The prison band was there and they began to wail.
The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing You should've heard those knocked out jailbirds sing.
Let's rock, everybody, let's rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.


Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone,
Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone.
The drummer boy from Illinois went crash, boom, bang,
the whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang.
Let's rock, everybody, let's rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.

Number forty-seven said to number three:
"You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see.
I sure would be delighted with your company,
come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me."
Let's rock, everybody, let's rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.

The sad sack was a sittin' on a block of stone
way over in the corner weepin' all alone.
The warden said, "Hey, buddy, don't you be no square.
If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair."
Let's rock, everybody, let's rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.

Shifty Henry said to Bugs, "For Heaven's sake,
no one's lookin', now's our chance to make a break."
Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said, "Nix nix,
I wanna stick around a while and get my kicks."
Let's rock, everybody, let's rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.

St. George and the Dragonet~11PM: Carol ~

St. George and the Dragonet

[Narrator:]
The legend you are about to hear is true
Only the needle should be changed to protect the record

[St. George:]
This is the countryside
My name is St George
I'm a knight

Saturday, July 10th, 8:05 pm
I was working out of the castle on the nightwatch
When a call came in from the Chief
A dragon had been devouring maidens
Homicide
My job, slay him

[St. George:]
You call me, Chief

[Chief:]
Yes, the dragon again, devouring maidens
The King's daughter may be next

[St. George:]
Mmm-hmm
You got a lead

[Chief:]
Oh, nothing much to go on
Say, did you take that.45 automatic
Into the lab to have them check on it

[St. George:]
Yeah, you were right

[Chief:]
I was right

[St. George:]
Yeah, It was a gun

8:22 pm, I talked to one of the maidens
Who had almost been devoured

[St. George:]
Could I talk to you, Ma'am

[Maiden:]
Who are you

[St. George:]
I'm St. George, Ma'am
Homicide, Ma'am
Want to ask you a few questions, Ma'am
I understand you were almost devoured by the dragon, Ma'am
Is that right, dragon

[Maiden:]
It was terrible
He breathed fire on me
He burned me already

[St. George:]
How can I be sure of that, Ma'am

[Maiden:]
Believe me
I got it straight from the dragon's mouth

[St. George:]
11:45 pm
I rode over the King's Highway
I saw a man
Stopped to talk to him
Pardon me, Sir
Could I talk to you for just a minute, Sir

[Knave:]
Sure, I don't mind

[St. George:]
What do you do for a living

[Knave:]
I'm a knave

[St. George:]
Didn't I pick you up on a 903 last year for stealing tarts

[Knave:]
Yeah, so what
Do you wanna make a federal case out of it

[St. George:]
No, Sir
We heard there was a dragon operating in this neighborhood
We just want to know if you've seen him

[Knave:]
Sure, I've seen him

[St. George:]
Mmm-hmm
Could you describe him for me

[Knave:]
What's to describe
You see one dragon, you seen 'em all

[St. George:]
Would you try to remember, Sir
Just for the record
We just want to get the facts, Sir

[Knave:]
Well, he was, you know, he had orange polka dots...

[St. George:]
Yes, Sir

[Knave:]
Purple feet, breathing fire and smoke...

[St. George:]
Mmm-hmm

[Knave:]
And one big bloodshot eye
Right in the middle of his forehead and
Uh, like that

[St. George:]
Notice anything unusual about him

[Knave:]
No, he's just your run-of-the-mill dragon, you know

[St. George:]
Mmm-hmm
Yes, Sir
You can go now

[Knave:]
Hey, by the way, how you gonna catch him

[St. George:]
I thought you'd never ask
A Dragonet

3:05 pm
I was riding back into the courtyard
To make my report to the lab
Then it happened
It was the dragon

[Dragon:]
Hey, I'm the fire-breathin' Dragon
You must be St George, right

[St. George:]
Yes, Sir

[Dragon:]
I can see you got one of them new.45 caliber swords

[St. George:]
That's about the size of it

[Dragon:]
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
You slay me

[St. George:]
That's what I wanted to talk to you about

[Dragon:]
What do you mean

[St. George:]
I'm taking you in on a 502
You figure it out

[Dragon:]
What's the charge

[St. George:]
Devouring maidens out of season

[Dragon:]
Out of season
You'll never pin that rap on me
Do you hear me, cop

[St. George:]
Yeah, I hear you
I got you on a 412 too

[Dragon:]
A 412
What's a 412

[St. George:]
Over-acting. Let's go

[Narrator:]
On September the 5th, the Dragon was tried and convicted
His fire was put out and his maiden-devouring license revoked
Maiden devouring out of season is punishable
By a term of not less than 50 or more than 300 years

Lucy In The Sky with Diamonds (1967, The Beatle's)

Lucy In The Sky with Diamonds (1967, The Beatle's)

Picture yourself in a boat on a river,
with tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
a girl with caleidoscope eyes.

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
towering over your head.
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
and she's gone.

[Ref :] Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ah, ah.

Follow her downto a bridge by the fountain,
where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies.
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers,
that grow so incredibly high.

Newspaper taxis appear on the shore,
waiting to take you away.
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds
and you're gone.

Ref.

Picture yourself on a train in a station,
with plasticine porters with looking glass ties.
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile,
the girl with caleidoscope eyes.
