Let Me Be Your Dog: If you tell me what to do I could do it quite well Give detailed desires, I'd be tryin' like hell You could leave a little clue I would follow it through You got to say somethin' If there's anything you want me to do Let me be the slave you can faithfully flog Let me be your dog I got no way a'knowin' what show is in town I could be your pacifier I could be your favorite hound Just gimme some proof, I'll deliver in style On a hot tin roof, I'll be burnin' the tiles Let me be the friend of a friend Of a stepmother's brother Of the slave you can faithfully flog Let me be your dog [solo] Roll me right over, I'll crawl and I'll beg Casanova rover, bitin' your leg 'Cos what goes around, comes around Simple as that You'd be doin' yourself a favor Cuttin' the crap Let me be your cross-breed, off the lead Chasin' my tail I could make you feel better Like a cheque in the mail Like a poll-position for the closin' down sale Like a hog in a synagogue Let me be your dog Call me Rover Let me be your dog C'mon baby, I'll be good Like I know I could Let me be your dog Hey baby, please baby Let me be your dog |

Can't Shake Those Shakes: Blind in my one good eye My mind just won't reply Somethin' from way down south Kinda formin' a dust in my mouth Lookin' for a place to hide Lookin' for a space to die Rattlin' like an old tin can I'm cruisin' like a laundry van hot 'n' cold fever down to my knees Wearin' out all of my rosary beads Can't shake those shakes Can' t shake those shakes no more Can't shake those shakes Feels like I'm dyin' when I'm already dead Date with my medicine man He got the remedies I understand Gotta find the price to pay Gonna send me on my way Gotta desperate need, gotta feed the fire I got a chemical love and a burned out desire Can't shake those shakes Can't shake those shakes no more Can't shake those shakes, eels like i'm dyin' When I'm already dead, I'm dead. Don't care for sentiment, don't even pay my rent Got enough bad habits to blame Got enough of them to keep me sane Losin' altitude in this neighborhood Can't break the fall, though iI know that I should Can't shake those shakes |

Move Me: Time goes between us, and there's no release Silent ref'rence to defenses raised higher Than we'll ever need The more we try, flame inside gets colder to the touch Taking for granted, gets taken for granted too much So come on and move me Let me feel you move me Prove me wrong, show me I still belong Come on and move me Let me feel you move me like you used to She never asked anything of me That I could ever be Now we're lyin' in the shade Sharpenin' the blades of our rivalry Untidy lies, they could never disguise The truth behind the door Feelin's grow nearer, then disappear again some more So come on and move me Let me feel you move me Prove me wrong,s how me I still belong Come on and move me Let me feel you move me like you used to There can be no contention, come on and move me Let me feel you move me Prove me wrong, show me I still belong Come on and move me Let me feel you move me like you used to Move me, come on. |

This Flight Tonight: (Joni Mitchell) Look out the left the captain said The lights down there that's where we'll land Saw a falling star burning High above the Las Vegas sand It wasn't the one that you gave to me That night down south between the trailers Not the early one that you wish upon Not the northern one that guides in the sailors You've got that touch so gentle and sweet But you've got that look so cryptical Can't talk to you babe you know I get so weak Sometimes I think that love is just mythical Up there's a heaven, down there's a town Blackness everywhere any little lights shine Blackness, blackness draggin' me down Come on light a candle in this heart of mine Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like Turn this crazy bird around Should not have got on this flight tonight I'm drinkin' sweet champagne got the headphones up high Can't numb you, can't drum you out of my mind They're singin'-"Goodbye baby, Baby bye-bye, Ooh! love is blind" Up go the flaps,down go the wheels Hope you got your heat turned on baby Hope they've finally fixed your automobile Hope it's better when we meet again babe |

Burning Down: If it takes them so long So long to say yes Why don't they just say no? They don't need anyone to be put to the test Why don't they let us go Livin' for the right to be, livin' for the right Livin' for the right to be, livin' for the right Livin' for the right to be free We needed a plan, we needed defenses We couldn't raise a smile As the world looked on, they raided our senses There can be no reconcile Burning down, burning down, burning down, burning down There was a time before life was taken for granted 'Will never come again Our flower is dead, the seed is unplanted They put it all to flame Burning down, burning down, burning down, burning down Livin' for the right to be, livin' for the right Livin' for the right to be, livin' for the right Livin' for the right to be free Livin' for the right to be, livin' for the right Livin' for the right to be, livin' for the right Livin' for the right to be free Burning down, burning down , burning down , burning down |

My White Bicycle (unplugged): My white bicycle, my white bicycle Riding all around the street Four o'clock and they're all asleep I'm not tired and it's so late Moving fast everything looks great. My white bicycle, my white bicycle See that man, he's all alone Looks so happy but he's far from home Ring my bell, smile at him Better kick over his garbage bin My white bicycle, my white bicycle The rain comes down but I don't care The wind is blowing in my hair Seagulls flying in the air My white bicycle lead: Policeman shouts but I don't see him They're one thing I don't believe in Find some judge, but it's not leavin' Lift both hands, his head in disgrace Shines no light upon my face Through the darkness, we still speed My white bicycle and me My white bicycle, my white bicycle |
