We might as well be apart.
We point our fingers
We pull into downtown Dallas by the side of the Grassy Knoll
We sailed up a river wide as a sea
We sat starry-eyed
We shall suffer no more
We should be grateful
We signed the papers
We sleep separately.
We take a walk
We tell them mother fuckers suck on this.
We think it's easy
We used to get high
We walk (2)
We walked on frosted fields of juniper and lamplight,
We was all on the cover of Newsweek
We watched the fireworks 'til they were fireflies.
We were married on a rainy day
We were staying up all night
We wrap ourselves in prayer.
We'd like to help you learn
We'd like to know
We'll eliminate your pain.
We'll go through the projects,
We'll wake up down in Mexico
We're featuring the Ivy League look. It's conservative
We're just a habit
We're not important
We're not old
We're the ones
We're working our jobs
We've got a groovy thing goin', baby,
We've got a groovy thing.
We've got numbers by the trillions
Weak as the winter sun, we enter life on earth.
Wearing diamonds on the soles of their shoes,
Wearing these diamonds,
Wears me down.
Weary from waiting down in Washington D.C.
Weave their weary paths and die
Weaving time in a tapestry

Wednesday, Thursday, ain't no sign,
Weeps alone
Well eventually the boy and the girl get married
Well he stopped one night
Well he was here a minute ago
Well I believe it's that time of year when I shop for clothes.
Well I guess I've been in love before and once or twice have been on the floor
Well I never cared much for the money
Well I sang it once and I sang it twice
Well I told her I was lost
Well I told you my position
Well I'll just skip the boring parts chapters one, two, three
Well I'm accustomed to a smoother ride
Well I'm on my way
Well I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette,
Well I've been away for a long time
Well it makes your famous daddy look so dumb
Well it's "Who-bop-a-loo-chi-bop, you're mine,
Well it's a short walk
Well it's late in the evening, and the music's seeping through
Well it's likely to lose me, mm
Well she took me to the woods sayin'
Well that was your mother,
Well that's good luck
Well that's one way to lose these
Well that's one way to lose
Well the "Spanish boys" had their day in court
Well the answer is
Well the hour of your bedtime's long been past
Well then they searched the roofs
Well there's no need to complain,
Well they shackled my hands
Well, he better watch out, 'cause I'm getting' mad
Well, I entered the courtroom, state of New York
Well, I got around on a red motorcycle
Well, I have no opinion about that
Well, I just got out in the nick of time
Well, I paid all the dues I want to pay.
Well, I really wasn't
Well, I'm trying t get some sleep
Well, I've heard the word before.
Well, it's just after breakfast
Well, it's not just me
Well, the sun gets bloody
Well, the sun gets weary
Well, the way that I go everybody's gonna know
Well, there's only one thing I need to know
Well, they won't last for all of us,
Well, they'd kill you if they could.
Well, they'd kill you if they could
Well, we'll just have to wait and confer
Well, you cry and try to muscle through
Well-a well I'm home (2)
Went to my doctor yesterday
Were dining with the power elite
Were made
Were strolling down Christopher Street
Weren't that funny,
What - you don't like the way I chew?
What - you don't love me anymore?
What - you're walking out the door?
What a gas! You gotta come and see
What a great time
What a shame that he's dead,
What are you searching for
What can I do
What do you think has been going on
What happened to me they know could happen to them.
What I dream I had:
What I was talking about
What I'm talking about,
What if I die here
What information pertains
What is the point of this story
What It Yearns"
What the mama saw
What will our friends say
What you believe in, Salvador Agrón?
What you think isn't always true
What're you thinking?
What's my number
What's that you say, Mrs. Robinson?
What's your hurry?
Whatcha knowin?
Wheels take the brunt. Pinion and a rack
When a man came on the radio
When a stranger came up and asked me
When all of your answers are knives
When all these numbers tumble into your imagination
When am I gonna get outta here?
When darkness fell, excitement kissed the crowd
When evening falls so hard
When evil walks the planet
When I am rising like a flood
When I come back to bed
When I come back to the room, everybody just seemed to move
When I crept to her tent with a flashlight
When I fell into a phone call.
When I hear you singing
When I heard you saying it
When I left my home and my family I was no more than a boy,
When I look out my window it's brown and it's bleak
When I needed a friend she was there
When I run dry
When I see you smiling
When I think back
When I thought I heard somebody
When I thought I heard this voice say,
When I was a little boy (when I was just a boy)
When I was born my mother died
When I was grown to be a man (grown to be a man)
When I was on the wall
When I was single
When I was still single,
When I was twelve going on thirteen
When I was young I carried a gun
When I will lose you
When I'm down. dirty and desperate
When I'm near you my future seems bright (2)
When in fact we're slip slidin' away
When it's after a show
When it's all because of you
When it's just right and you have sunlight
When it's not too hot
When leaving home is the lesser crime
When life was great,
When morning is just a few hours away.
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
When my restlessness is past
When no one was awake
When numbers get serious
When she goes, she's gone.
When she saw him on TV
when something goes right
When something goes wrong
When speech becomes a crime
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain.
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
When the fever runs high
When the flood water pours from the mouth, from the mouth?
When the flood water pours from the mouth?
When the leaves are dark (2)
When the mother and child reunion
When the papa found out he began to shout
When the perfect circle
When the pitcher died
When the road bends
When the shadows are deep
When the spotlight hit the boy,
When the world was young
When they know you've gone, gone away
When they stopped in a men's store
When they wake up they will find
When time has stopped
When times are mysterious
When you don't expect it, and you're unprepared
When you loved me so
When you say Dylan, he thinks you're talking about Dylan Thomas,
When you think about it
When you'll be tired
When you're down and out,
When you're on the street, my lord,
When you're weary, feeling small,
When you've got to choose,
When your brain just takes a seat behind your face
When your eyes are blind with tears
Whenever you believe that
Where do allergies go
Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?
Where I am
Where no one ever goes.
Where once we strolled the beach at El Malecon
Where some people congregate in shame
Where the dancing is elite
Where the evening meal
Where the Latin population will soon be minus one.
Where the leader fell and a town was broken.
Where the New York city winters aren't bleedin' me, leadin' me goin' home.
Where the people sing and play
Where the ragged people go.
Where the sage and sweetgrass grow
Where the snow and guards are white
Where they roll you for a nickel
Where we counted every falling star
Where you been so long
Where'd he go? I don't know
Where's he goin?
Where's he going?
Where's my wife and family
Whew, slow
While a little cloud weeps on the side of a hill
While a soldier cleans and polishes a gun
While down in the valley a cruel war rages
While I looked around
While you sleep
While you were here sleeping and just dreaming of me,
White cloud, black crow
Who calls herself the human trampoline,
Who could say things that
Who denies his urge to break and run
Who do you cry every day?
Who do you think you're fooling? (who do you think you're fooling)
Who do you think you're fooling?" (grown to be a man)
Who do you think you're fooling?" (when I was just a boy)
Who don't see much of me
Who falls against you gently
Who feels my flesh when I am gone
Who feels the pounding in my blood
Who had a son
Who is a witness to, who is a warrior
Who is my heart, who is my door
Who is my mirror, who's my blade
Who is my reason to begin
Who kissed my eyes and saw the scream
Who knows my secret broken
Who lived in a shoe
Who looks you in the eye
Who loved his daughter more than I love you
Who makes the bed that can't be made
Who plows the earth, who breaks the skin
Who says: Hard times?
Who should be notified so-oo-oon...
Who tends to socialize
Who took my two hands and made them four
Who was a witness to the dream
Who was recently given a Fulbright,
Who will love a little Sparrow
Who will love a little Sparrow?
Who will take pity in his heart,
Who'll be my role-model
Who's gonna love you when your looks are gone?
Who's that conscience sticking on the sole of my shoe?
Who's traveled far and cries for rest?
Who, now who you foolin?"
Who-bop-a-loo-chi-bop, hah, you're mine
Who-o, now, who you foolin?"
Whoa so this is what she means,
Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa (2)
Whoa------I got time on my hands tonight (2)
Whoa------You got style from your hair to your heels (2)
Whoa------You're the smile of the moon Bernadette (2)
Whoever he was.
Whose side are you on, whose side are you on?
Whose side are you on?
Whose side, whose side, whose side?
Whose venom is a cure
Whose words were like the tablets of stone
Why am I soft in the middle
Why deny the obvious child?
Why do we sleep in the dark?
Why do you cover your head?
Why don't we drive through the night
Why don't we stop fooling ourselves?
Why don't you show your face and bend my mind?
Why don't you write me,
Why don't you write me
Why don't you write me?
Why don't you write?
Why have I done it,
Why should I?
Why won't you love me
Why you don't treat me like
Why (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9) (10) (11)
Why?
Wild Flower, come back to me
Wild Flower, Wild Flower, so far from home
Wild Flower, Wild Flower, why do you roam
Wild Flower, Wild Flower
Wild Flower
Will always be heard
Will be sad
Will be their reward
Will he call out to his mother,
Will his violence return?
Will I be your wife.
Will I be your wife
Will no one write her eulogy?
Will release him in the fall
Will shine on you forever
Will you be my sorrow and my joy
Wiltwyck School for Criminal Children
Winter sunlight hits the family tree
Wisdom is old
Wish I was a Kellogg's Cornflake
Wish I was an English muffin
With a genius marketing plan.
With a magazine and a sleepless pillow
With a rattling deep emotion
With a sad and simple face
With a siren and a flashing light
With a slow moon rising
With a sweet dream in your head
With a twelve-year-old mind
With all of the mannequins dressed in the style
With crazy angel voices
With darling Lorraine
With disagreements about the meaning
With hush-a-byes for sleepy eyes,
With its catalogue of regrets
With music coming in my ears
With my car keys,
with nothing really left to lose
with political connections to spread his wealth around
With some roly-poly little bat-faced girl
with that gleam in her eye
With the child she carried
With the girl from the summer be-fore
With the hunger of ambition
With the hush of falling leaves,
With the rainfall.
With the windows closed!
With their camera
With their dog after the war
With their dog après la guerre
With this cross we call our life
With words that must be said,
With words that tear and strain to rhyme.
With your language and your poetry
Within a room, within himself
Within the sound of silence.
Without no seams nor needlework,
Without the taste of your sweet love Thelma
Woah in Graceland Graceland Graceland
Woke up in a hurricane eye
Women with their nursing children
Won't they ever let me forget
Won't you answer me please
Won't you close your weary eyes
Won't you lay your body down
Won't you run come see St. Judy's Comet
Won't you stop and remember me
Won't you tell that Congressman
Wondering as the television burns
Wondering where a city boy could do,
Wondering where a city boy could go,
Wop, Wop, Wop, Wop, Wop. (2)
Wop, Wop, Wop, Wop (2)
Work 'em out
Worrying about the market place
Would you put my photo on your piano?
Wouldn't play it by the book
Wrap me do
Wrap me
Wrap this child in mercy - heal her
Write a song about the moon
Writing songs I can't believe
Wrong again, wrong again
Wrong again
Yay! Boo!
Yeah it was just a late night
Yeah that's a rug, ok
Yeah you never know
Yeah, but that didn't feel like love
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, motorcycle
Yes and with the proper V collar - woah! - Now you're breaking all the rules! How about a shark skin suit? Shines just like a jewel.
Yes Boss. Mr. Stillwater,
Yes Boss. The crusher of language
Yes Boss. The government handshake
Yes I do believe, if I hadn't met you
Yes I would.
Yes the boy's got a voice
Yes they would
Yes we can play.
Yes, and I've often felt forsaken
Yes, I am an alien, from Mars.
Yes, sir, head's erased, brain's a bowl of jelly
Yes, we speak of things that matter,
Yesterday it was my birthday
Yesterday you swooned o'er me
Yet I know as I gaze
Yitho omanqoba (ih hih ih hih ih) yitho omanqoba

Yo nací en Puerto Rico
You and me could make amends
You and me were such good friends
You are the air
You are the burden, of my generation,
You ask why I search
You better get your bags and flee.
You better hurry up and order one.
You better keep an eye on them children
You broke my heart
You buy one, you get two.
You came here numb and battered
You can beat us with chains
You can beat us with wires
You can call me Al
You can count on my word
You can cry
You can cut them with a knife
You can die
You can feel the heat of his heart
You can hang from the bottom of the beat
You can hear the ocean roar
You can jingle to the beat of Jelly Roll
You can lean on the side of the beat
You can legalize your lows
You can lie
You can mingle in the street
You can run out your rules
You can see that I'm dressed like a schoolboy
You can sit on the top of the beat
You can wear your summer clothes
You can't be forever blessed
You can't believe it,
You can't believe that it's true
You can't decide
You can't remember where you are
You cannot even read your story
You cast your line
You could be trusted
You don't begin to comprehend
You don't feel you could love me
You don't have to lie to me
You don't know but I know that you do
You don't know that you love me
You don't know where your interest lies
You don't need a ticket to ride
You don't need to be coy, Roy
You don't need to discuss much
You don't see my face in Rolling Stone
You don't think as much as you could
You drift through this nightmare from which you can't wake
You feel your peel so fine?
You get sick from that unspoken
You got 'em
You got a lot of nerve
You got to drift in the breeze
You got to learn how to fall
You gotta make the moment last
You guys would still be on my case
You have that boy to latch up town
You have underestimated my power
You introduced me to your neighborhood
You just like to stay in bed
You just slip out the back, Jack
You know a carnivore
You know I don't find this stuff amusing anymore
You know the nearer your destination
You know, felt like a fool?
You know, it's all because you wouldn't say, I do
You little ghetto weeds . . . I feel like killin' you.
You look like you got Spanish blood.
You made me cry
You may think that we're friends all right
You may think that you're above me, yeah
You may think you're above me, yeah
You might learn something
You must be out of your mind.
You rescued me when I was blind
You say the Aguinaldo makes you dream of home
You say you care for me
You say you're depressed but you're not
You see their shape everywhere
You should know that I'm womanly wise
You Spanish people, you come to this country
You take out your money
You take two bodies and you twirl them into one
You want to be a leader?
You want to be a missionary?
You want to be a writer
You want to change the game?
You want to talk talk talk about it
You want to try
You want to write a spiritual tune
You wastin' your time, they don't know what I do
You were a child of sixteen
You won't stand a chance, you won't stand a chance
You'd watch the street lamps from your perch
You'll be lost and love will find you
You'll be mine eternally
You'll feel just fine
You'll teach yourself to write.
You're a coolie from the turf.
You're a stranger now unto me
You're bound to lose in New York City
You're eyes were aglow
You're fading fast, oh fading fast
You're going out with someone new
You're going to break down and cry
You're gonna love me now indefinitely
You're in trouble boy,
You're just a game I like to play
You're kind, so kind, so kind
You're kind
You're my only defense
You're not the woman that I wed
You're not (2)
You're shaking my confidence daily
You're so good
You're so kind
You're the girl of my dreams (2)
You're the one
You've got the cool water
You've got the look of lovelight in your eyes
You've seen it advertised in Life.
Your basic rock and roll
Your breathing is like an echo of our love
Your cheeks flushed with the night.
Your family rented this apartment
Your features blurred in every grainy photo
Your friendly neighbors honestly.
Your future's locked in mine.
Your son, gone to God, and mine to blame
Your time has come to shine.
