He ho ha ha ha [laugh - d rockstar way]




Let me tell you a story to chill the bones
About a thing that I saw
One night wandering in the everglades
I'd one drink but no more

I was rambling, enjoying the bright moonlight
Gazing up at the stars
Not aware of a presence so near to me
Watching my every move

Feeling scared and I fell to my knees
As something rushed me from the trees
Took me to an unholy place
And that is where I fell from grace

Then they summoned me over to join in with them
To the dance of the dead
Into the circle of fire I followed them
Into the middle I was led

As if time had stopped still I was numb with fear
But still I wanted to go
And the blaze of the fire did no hurt upon me
As I walked onto the coals

And I felt I was in a trance
And my spirit was lifted from me
And if only someone had the chance
To witness what happened to me

And I danced and I pranced and I sang with them
All had death in their eyes
Lifeless figures they were undead all of them
They had ascended from hell

As I danced with the dead
My free spirit was laughing and howling down at me
Below my undead body
Just danced the circle of dead

Until the time came to reunite us both
My spirit came back down to me
I didn't know if I was alive or dead
As the others all joined in with me

By luck then a skirmish started
And took the attention away from me
When they took their gaze from me
Was the moment that I fled

I ran like hell faster than the wind
But behind I did not glance
One thing that I did not dare
Was to look just straight ahead

When you know that your time has come around
You know you'll be prepared for it
Say your last goodbyes to everyone
Drink and say a prayer for it

When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed
And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead
When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed
And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead

To this day I guess I'll never know
Just why they let me go
But I'll never go dancing no more
'Til I dance with the dead

Lyricist :Kaifi Azami Singer :Jagajit Singh



तुम इतना जो मुस्कुरा रहे हो -2
क्या गम है जिसको छुपा रहे हो-2
तुम इतना जो मुस्कुरा रहे हो

आंखो मे नमी हंसी लबो पर
आंखो मे नमी हंसी लबो पर क्या हाल है...क्या दिखा रहे हो ,
क्या हाल है...क्या दिखा रहे
होक्या गम है जिसको छुपा रहे हो
तुम इतना जो मुस्कुरा रहे हो

बन जायेगे जहेर पीते -पीते
बन जायेगे जहेर पीते पीते ,ये अश्क जो पीते जा रहे हो..
ये अश्क जो पीते जा रहे हो

जिन जख्मो को वक़्त भर चला है
जिन जख्मो को वक़्त भर चला है..तुम क्यूँ उन्हे छेडॆ जा रहे हो -2
तुम क्यूँ उन्हे छेडॆ जा रहे हो
क्या गम है जिंसको छुपा रहे हो
तुम इतना जो मुस्कुरा रहे हो

रेखाओ का खेल है मुक़द्दर
रेखाओ का खेल है मुक़द्दर ... रेखाओ से मात खा रहे हो
रेखाओ से मात खा रहे हो
क्या गम है जिसको छुपा रहे हो हो-2
तुम इतना जो मुस्करा रहे हो क्या गम है जिसको छुपा रहे हो हो

The Mystical Lady of the Night

H o t e l C a l i f o r n i a


On a dark desert highway,
cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas,
rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance,
I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy
and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
'This could be Heaven or this could be Hell'

Then she lit up a candle
and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face

Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted,
she got the Mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys,
that she calls friends

How they dance in the courtyard,
sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember,
some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain,
'Please bring me my wine'
He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here
since nineteen sixty nine'
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face

They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said 'We are all just prisoners here,
of our own device'

And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
The stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember,
I was Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
'Relax, 'said the night man,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
but you can never leave

Kill The System - V r not 4 SALE

C a l i f o r n i c a t i o n

Psychic spies from China
Try to steal your mind's elation
Little girls from Sweden
Dream of silver screen quotations
And if you want these kind of dreams
It's Californication

It's the edge of the world
And all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the East
At least it settles in the final location
It's understood that Hollywood
sells Californication


Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin
Or is that war your waging
First born unicorn
Hard core soft porn


Chorus: Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication


Marry me girl be my fairy to the world
Be my very own constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside
Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard
It's Californication


Space may be the final frontier
But it's made in a Hollywood basement
Cobain can you hear the spheres
Singing songs off station to station
And Alderon's not far away
It's Californication


Born and raised by those who praise
Control of population everybody's been there and
I don't mean on vacation
First born unicorn
Hard core soft porn

Chorus x2

Destruction leads to a very rough road
But it also breeds creation
And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar
They're just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldn't save the world
From Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Sicker than the rest
There is no test
But this is what you're craving
First born unicorn
Hard core soft porn

Chorus x2
