Things Lyrics

Artist : BARENAKED LADIES
Album : Snacktime!

There are things that make me mad,
You are not one of them.

There are things that make me sad,
You are not one of them.

There are things that make me Dad,
You seem to be all of them.

A Word For That Lyrics

Artist : BARENAKED LADIES
Album : Snacktime!

There's a word for that
But I don't seem to know it
Sometimes I grow a mustache
Just so I don't have to show it

The word for that
That someone somewhere chose
For that little dented skin
Between my upper lip and nose

There's a word for that
What does it start with, the word for that?
I'd sound so smart if I only knew
The word for that, perhaps you do

The word you're looking for is philtrum

There's a word for that
It may come to me soon
It dangles down in my mouth
And is often in cartoons

The word for that
It seems like such a drag
To not know what to call
That little fleshy punching bag

There's a word for that
What does it start with, the word for that?
I'd sound so smart if I only knew
The word for that, perhaps you do

Do you mean uvula?

There's a word for that
It's on the tip of my tongue
Well, actually underneath it
And has been since I was young

The word for that
Although I wouldn't quote
It likely stops my tongue
From disappearing down my throat

There's a word for that
What does it start with, the word for that?
I'd sound so smart if I only knew
The word for that, perhaps you do

What does it start with, the word for that?
I'd sound so smart if I only knew
The word for that, perhaps you do

Are you nuts, it's frenulum

Crazy ABC's Lyrics

Artist : BARENAKED LADIES
Album : Snacktime!

Hey Steve, hey Ed, that sounds nice, what is it?
Thank you, it's a, it's an alphabet song I'm working on
Oh great, a whole new alphabet, I just learned the old one

A is for aisle, B is for bdellium, C is for czar
And if you see him would you mind telling him?

Okay, hang on a second, yeah aisle, bdellium?
Yeah, aisle like a, like a theater, alright, okay and bdellium?
Bdellium, it's a gum like tree resin, it starts with a silent B
And then czar? Yeah, it's uh like a Russian czar

You know everybody knows apple, ball and cat
I wanted to get into some, you know some stranger words
Right, I see what you're doing

D is for djinn, E for Euphrates
F is for fohn, but not like when I call the ladies

I thought phone started with a P like a Ph
No, it's F O H N, it's a, it's a kind of wind
Yeah, I know what you mean by wind

G for gnarly, I for irk, H is for hour
J for jalapeA+os, good in either corn or flour
Tortillas, let us rhyme

K is for knick knack, L is for llama
Pramma, llama, ding, what's so strange about llama?
Llama, it starts with two L's, what's the second one for?
No idea, I know loser

N for neumonic, M is for mdomo, O is for ouiga board
P for pneumonia, pterodactyl and psychosis, Q is for qat

Okay, Q qat? What? Yeah, it's uh Q A T, it's an evergreen shrub
It's a perfect scrabble word because it's a Q with no U
There's not many of those, you have too much time on your hands

R is for argyle , no it isn't
Okay, you're right, I couldn't find a good R word
S is for SzA?r, a lovely German river
T for tsunami, a wave that makes me quiver

U is for urn, but not like earning money
V for vraisemblance from French and therefore kind of funny

W for wren, wrinkly and who
X is for Xian, an ancient Chinese city, true
Ancient Chinese city, huh? My guitar player, some hotshot

Y is for yiperite, a very nasty gas
And zed's the final letter and by final I mean last

Okay, when you say zed for the benefit of our American friends
You really mean Z, right?
No, I mean zed, like, like Zed Zed Top, Zed Zed Top?

Yeah, you know the guys with the big long beards
Well, except the guy whose name is Beard, he has a mustache
I always thought that was interesting

You done with the alphabet?
No, extra letters I haven't heard of? I think so
This was a great help, I think
With the contribution you made to world literacy

Well, I'm just saying, kids I'm just saying
Think outside the box a little bit, box with an R
Yeah, well, no box with a B A L K S like a pitcher
Ah, as opposed to B A C H S

Right, think outside the box, get into some Rochmaninov
That's Rochmaninov with a W

Green Lyrics

Artist : BLAKE SHELTON
Album : Startin' Fires

Lookout!
People used to call me backwards,
Living out here with the tractors,
Letting this world leave me behind.
Now-a-days I'm an innovator
I'm a country boy prognosticator
I'm a man ahead of my times

I've got a hundred acre farm
I've got a john deere in my barn
I've got a garden in my yard, full of corn, peas and beans
I've got a guitar I play unplugged
I've got a home-grown girl I love,
And when the summer time hits, we skinny dip in the stream
I was green before green was a thing

Sheets on the clothes line drying
Red Tail hawks a flying
A couple of deer on the timber line
And I know a lot more about cane pole fishing
then I ever will know about carbon emission
And my little corner of the world is doing just fine

I've got a hundred acre farm
I've got a john deere in my barn
I've got a garden in my yard, full of corn, peas and beans
I've got a guitar I play unplugged
I've got a home-grown girl I love,
And when the summer time hits, we skinny dip in the stream
I was green before green was a thing

Yeah, I've got a hundred acre farm
I've got a john deere in my barn
I've got a garden in my yard, full of root baked potatos and greens
I've got a guitar I play unplugged
I've got a home-grown girl I love,
And when the summer time hits, we skinny dip in the stream
I was green before green was a thing
I was green before green was a thing

Oh yeah.

Home Sweet Home Lyrics

Artist : BLAKE SHELTON
Album : Startin' Fires

I look out across corn rows from a dirt road
Babys kicked back in the front seat
Got her bare fit hanging out the window

We take a trip down memory lane
Dirt on the truck, no chance of rain
My third generation farming friends all pray that its on the way
And if it dont show up, we'll be alright
Because folks round here wouldnt take a million
For a different life

Home sweet home
I thank my lucky stars at night
I was raised down here and raised up right
And my pride, you've got that right
Home sweet home
Where a little bit goes long way
And we shut her down on sundays
I wont ever get too far away
From Home sweet home

Pull down to the cane bridge
Park in the ditch
Folks and poles are lined up
A little kid holds a stringer up
Got a mess of fish
I drive away with a smile on my face
Knowing that this place is blessed
By God's amazing grace

Home sweet home
I thank my lucky stars at night
I was raised down here and raised up right
And my pride, you've got that right
Home sweet home
Where a little bit goes long way
And we shut her down on sundays
I wont ever get too far away
From Home sweet home

Know matter i go
Or where the road might leave
This little speck on the map, will always be

Home sweet home
I thank my lucky stars at night
I was raised down here and raised up right
And my pride, you've got that right
Home sweet home
Where a little bit goes long way
And we shut her down on sundays
I wont ever get too far away
From Home sweet home...

Yeah, I'm coming home.

Start A Band Lyrics

Artist : BRAD PAISLEY
Album : Play
(feat. Keith Urban)

I never was a straight-lace, straight A student
teacher's pet or child prodigy
I wasn't gonna get rich throwin' a football
It take too long to get a law degree

So I sat down with momma and daddy
tried to talk some sense into my big head
But the best advice that I ever got
was from my sister's rock star boyfriend

Just get you a guitar and learn how to play
Cut up some jeans, come up with a name
When you're living in a world that you dont understand
Find a few good buddies, start a band
Start a band, Start a band

And all those girls that were too cool to talk to,
They'll be waiting in the line out back
Might get your picture in the hometown paper
Maybe buy your momma that Cadillac

Just get you a guitar and learn how to play
Cut up some jeans, come up with a name
When you're living in a world that you don't understand
Find a few good buddies, start a band

Start a band, Scrape up some money, buy a van
Learn free bird and ramblin' man
Never buy another beer again

Just get you a guitar and learn how to play
Grow out your hair, come up with a name
With a little bit of luck you'll be packing the stands
Find a few good buddies, start a band

No need to study, start a band
Call up some buddies man, start a band

Come On In Lyrics

Artist : BRAD PAISLEY
Album : Play
(feat. Buck Owens)

1, 2
Got up this morning, headed down the road
I saw this pilgrim with a heavy load
Were my eyes lyin' at what I'd seen?
Hello, stranger. Remember me?

Hang your coat on that nail
kick your shoes off let 'em sail
I set my suitcase down in the den
Welcome stranger, come on in

Come on in, come on in
It's so good to see you again
It don't matter where you been
welcome stranger, come on in

I'll make the coffee, I'll get the cream
We'll open up a bottle of old Jim Beam
We'll hoot and holler to your favorite song
Welcome stranger, welcome home

I sure did miss you there's no doubt
The days got longer after you checked out
But the pain got stronger when it kicked in
Welcome stranger, come on in

Come on in, come on in
It's so good to see you again
It don't matter where you been
welcome stranger, come on in

It don't matter where you been
welcome stranger, come on in
welcome stranger, come on in

More Than Just This Song Lyrics

Artist : BRAD PAISLEY
Album : Play
(feat. Steve Wariner)

Like a boat on a river this bus is floating down this old highway
Looking out the window I think about how I got here today
Anyone who's anywhere had some help getting there its true
And one of the reasons why I get to do the things I do

I met this angel
With callused hands
Who led this boy to his band
Under his wing I learned to fly
On these 6 strings through this life
You can hear them in my playing
Although he's gone
And I owe him so much more than just this song.

Like a leaf that had fallen I was drifting down the stream
Mr. Guitar came into my life and let me live this dream
His old gretch still speaking still speaking its teaching all of us a ton
He was my friend and my hero all wrapped up in one

I met this angel
With callused hands
Who lead this naive boy into his band
Under his wing I learned to fly
On his 6 strings into the night
I can still hear him playing although he's gone
And I owe him so much more than just this song.

Every face we see from we every stage we roll
With every note we play even though there gone
They live on
They live on

Let The Good Times Roll Lyrics

Artist : BRAD PAISLEY
Album : Play
(feat. B.B. King)

Hey everybody, let's have fun
You only live but once and when you're dead you're done
You better let the good time roll, baby, oh, let's get it own mama
And I don't care if you're old now
Get yourself together and let the good time roll

Don't sit there mumbling, talkin' trash
If you want to have a ball you got to go out, spend some cash
L-l-let the good times roll, babe, oh baby, oh baby
And I don't care if you're old now, get together and let the good time roll

Hey y'all tell everybody, Ray Charles' in town
Got a dollar and a quarter and I'm just ringing the clock now
Don't let nobody, play me cheap
I got fifty cents more than I'm gonna keep

I'm gonna let the good times roll now, oh baby, oh baby
And I don't care if you're old now, get together and let the good time roll

Hey no matter whether, rainy weather
If you want to have a ball you got to get yourself together
Oh, get yourself under control
Ohh, yeah, oh

Waitin' On A Woman Lyrics

Artist : BRAD PAISLEY
Album : Play

Sittin' on a bench at West Town Mall
He sat down in his overalls and asked me
You waitin' on a woman
I nodded yeah and said how 'bout you
He said son since nineteen fifty-two I've been
Waitin' on a woman

When I picked her up for our first date
I told her I'd be there at eight
And she came down the stairs at eight-thirty
She said I'm sorry that I took so long
Didn't like a thing that I tried on
But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty
Yeah she'll take her time but I don't mind
Waitin' on a woman

He said the wedding took a year to plan
You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous
Waitin' on a woman
And then he nudged my arm like old men do
And said, I'll say this about the honeymoon, it was worth it
Waitin' on a woman

And I don't guess we've been anywhere
She hasn't made us late I swear
Sometimes she does it just 'cause she can do it
Boy it's just a fact of life
It'll be the same with your young wife
Might as well go on and get used to it
She'll take her time 'cause you don't mind
Waitin' on a woman

I've read somewhere statistics show
The man's always the first to go
And that makes sense 'cause I know she won't be ready
So when it finally comes my time
And I get to the other side
I'll find myself a bench, if they've got any
I hope she takes her time, 'cause I don't mind
Waitin' on a woman

Honey, take your time, cause I don't mind
Waitin' on a woman
