Down By Law


Pseudo Heroes (Pseudo Heroes):

I
Wish
That I could fly
The speed of light
Wear
A ring
Of color green
That does all things
In my room I'll live a lie
Better than the world outside
From the burning sun I choose to hide
Red
And blue
Just swinging by
Just passing through
Knight
In armor clad
Don’t mess with him
Don't make him mad
In my room I'll live a lie
Better than the world outside
From the burning sun I choose to hide
They
Are there for me
They put my mind at ease
No one can dissuade them
In my room I’ll live a lie
Better than the world outside
From the burning sun I choose to hide

Fickle Fate (Pseudo Heroes):

Tears they come
From crying
Blood comes
From bleeding
Another yesterday
Is schemed away
Is tomorrow just
False scenery
Here's to years
That lean on me
Better luck
With destiny
Can we run away
Can we find a way
Is there any kind of pill you know
That we can take
Isn't it just like fate to laugh at you
It never does just what we want it to
Isn't it just like life to let you down
Figure it out and you'll sleep sound
If I die
Old or young
And if the sky should fall
I wouldn't care at all
Expectation is an evil thing
And lies are norm
Isn't it just like fate to laugh at you
It never does just what we want it to
Isn't it just like life to let you down
Figure it out and you'll sleep sound
Nothing ever seems
How it really is
Even in our dreams
We're supposed to guess
(Nothing!)
Never seems to make much sense
Night and day it seems
Are based on tragedies
Isn't it just like fate to laugh at you (laugh at you)
It never does just what we want it to (want it to)
Isn't it just like life to let you down (let you down)
Figure it out and you'll sleep sound

New #2 (Pseudo Heroes):

Why do you stand
It's easy to fall
You never seem
As mean as you talk
How do you see
With the sun so bright
How do you jump
With the moon so high
Waiting once again
For your so-called friends
You’ve lost your place in line
Today
Was harder than the day before
The difference will remain
But are you alone
And out of tune
Does every spirit
Seem so untrue
Are you so frail
Or are you a fool
Are you a hero
Or a public pool
Thinking back on years
When haircuts gave us tears
Angry days
You can't have it
Any other way
The difference will remain
There'll never be another you
You’re feeling down I know it's true
You're no pied piper
Well who's to say
The sea changes tides
Every other day
Don't ever think
What you'll never do
You'll one day find
What you always knew
Those set apart
They play a different game
The difference will remain
And are you alone

Down & Out (Pseudo Heroes):

When I was young
Not so long ago
I fell down
And I didn't get up
I laid there
In that grassy field
Thinking thoughts
That I shouldn't've thought
Feeling down
Feeling oh so wrought
Oh yeah
I've had my way go wrong too long
Started thinking there's nothing left for me
Now I'm laughing at myself
Desperation
It never felt so good
In the field that day
That's where I understood
When the chips fell down on me now
That's when I realized
My ego's oversized
Flat out now
Flat out on my back that moment
I decided
To count my lucky stars
And maybe make some more
Like I had done before
I stand before you now
I've had my way go wrong too long
Started thinking there's nothing left for me
Now I'm laughing at myself
I've had my way go wrong too long
Started thinking there's nothing left for me
Now I'm laughing at myself
Are you feeling down and out
Are you feeling down and out

TV People (Pseudo Heroes):

He's got nothing to lose
He’s got nothing to prove
He's got no intentions
He's not human, he’s got no limitations
Everyone has their off and on days
Everyone makes their own mistakes
Everyone knows that it won't last long
Don't let it fool you
Nothing makes you fail
Like a beautiful girl on the reel-too-real
Oh
She's so perfect, she's so sweet
She's the girl that you'll never meet
Oh
Everyone has their off and on days
Everyone makes their own mistakes
Everyone knows that it won't last long
Don’t let it fool you
(Hey!)
Looking up on the movie screen
They got nothing to do but look pretty and preen
You got your super models and your Mr. Cleans
They got nothing to do but fake suicide
It’s easy
Too easy
Look easy?

The Kids Are Alright (Live) (The Who cover) (Down By Law):

I don't mind
Other guys dancing with my girl
That's fine
I know them all pretty well
But I know sometimes I must get out in the light
Better leave her behind
With the kids they're alright
The kids are alright
Sometimes
I feel I got to get away
Bells chime
I know I got to get away
And I know sometime I must get out of my mind
Better leave her behind
With the kids they're alright
The kids are alright
I know if I go, things would be a lot better for her
I had so many plans, but her folks wouldn't let her
I don't mind
Other guys dancing with my girl
That's fine
I know them all pretty well
But I know sometimes I must get out in the light
Better leave her behind
With the kids they're alright
The kids are alright
Sometimes
I feel I got to get away
Bells chime
I know I got to get away
Cause I know if I don't, I'll go out of my mind
Better leave her behind
With the kids they're alright
The kids are alright
The kids are alright
The kids are alright

Whole Lotta Rosie (Live) (AC/DC cover) (Down By Law):

I anna tell you a story
About a woman I know
When it comes to lovin
She steals the show
She ain't exactly pretty
Ain't exactly small
Forty-two, thirty-six, fifty-nine
You could say she's got it all
Never met a woman
Never met a woman like you
Doin' all the things
Doin' all the things you do
Ain't no fairy story
Ain't no skin and bones
But you give it all you got
Weighing in at nineteen stone
You're a whole lotta woman
A whole lotta woman
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
And you're a whole lotta woman
Oh, honey, you can do it
Do it to me all night long
Only one that turn
Only one that turn me on
All through the night time
And right around the clock
Woo, to my surprise, Rosie never stopped
She was a whole lotta woman
Whole lotta woman
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
A whole lotta woman
Whole lotta woman
Whole lotta woman
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
You're a whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta woman
Whole lotta woman
Whole lotta woman
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta woman

Safe European Home (Live) (The Clash cover) (Down By Law):

Well, I just got back and I wish I never leave now
(Where'd ya' go?)
Who that Martian arrival at the airport
(Where'd ya' go?)
How many local dollars for a local anesthetic?
(Where'd ya' go?)
But the Johnny on the corner wasn't very sympathetic
(Where'd ya' go?)
I went to the place where every white face
Is an invitation to robbery
Sitting here in my safe European home
Don't wanna go back there
Wouldn't it be nice, wouldn't it be lovely?
(Where'd ya' go?)
Send us a postcard cards and have a lay in on Sunday
(Where'd ya' go?)
I was there for two weeks, so how come I never tell now?
(Where'd ya' go?)
That natty dread drinks at the Sheraton Hotel, yeah?
(Where'd ya' go?)
I went to the place where every white face
Is an invitation to robbery
Sitting here in my safe European home
They got the sun and they got the palm trees
(Where'd ya' go?)
They got the weed and they got the taxis
(Where'd ya' go?)
Whoa, "The Harder They Come" and the home of ol' Bluebeat
(Where'd ya' go?)
I'd stay and be a tourist but I can't take the gun play
(Where'd ya'?)
I went to the place where every white face
Is an invitation to robbery
An' sitting here in my safe European home
What?
Rudie come from Jamaica, Rudie can't fail
Rudie come from Jamaica, Rudie can't fail
Rudie, Rudie, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do when they come for you
(Our Safe European home)
Rudie, Rudie, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do when they come for you
(Our Safe European home)
Rudie, Rudie, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do when they come for you
(Our Safe European home)
Rudie, Rudie, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do when they come for you
(Our Safe European home)
Whoa, Rudie
(Our Safe European home)
Whoa, Rudie
(Our Safe European home)
Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do when they come for you

Surrender (Live) (Cheap Trick cover) (Down By Law):

Mother told me, yes, she told me
I'd meet girls like you
She also told me, "Stay away
You'll never know what you'll catch"
Just the other day I heard
Of a soldier's falling off
Some Indonesian junk
That's going 'round
Mommy's all right
Daddy's all right
They just seem a little weird
Surrender
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey
Father says, "Your mother's right
She's really up on things
Before we married, Mommy served
In the WACS in the Philippines”
Now, I had heard the WACs recruited
Old maids for the war
But mommy isn't one of those
I've known her all these years
Mommy's all right
Daddy's all right
They just seem a little weird
Surrender
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey
Whatever happened to all this Losers seasons of the year?
Every time I got to thinking
Where'd they disappear?
Then I woke up, Mom and Dad
Are rolling on the grass
Rolling numbers, rock and rollin'
Got my KISS records out
Mommy's all right
Daddy's all right
They just seem a little weird
Surrender
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey
Away
Away
Surrender
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey
Away
Away

Sweet Home Alabama (Lynyrd Skynyrd cover) (Down By Law):

Big wheels keep on turnin'
Carry me home to see my kin
Singin' songs about the southland
I miss Alabamy once again
I think it's a sin
Well, I heard Mr. Young sing about her
Well, I heard ol' Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don't need him around, anyhow
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Here I come, Alabama
In Birmingham they loved the governor
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell me the truth
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Here I come, Alabama
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they've been known to pick a song or two
Lord, they get me off so much
They pick me up when I'm feeling blue
How 'bout you?
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Woo!
On lead guitar- Sammy Williams!
Ok, merci bien
Salut à bientôt
Bonne chance avec tous
